天堂飘来的叶子A LEAF FROM HEAVEN （安徒生 著? 余显文 译） HIGH up in the clear, pure air flew an angel, with a flower plucked from the garden of heaven. As he was kissing the flower a very little leaf fell from it and sunk down into the soft earth in the middle of a wood. It immediately took root, sprouted, and sent out shoots among the other plants.???? 一个天使拿着一束采自天堂的花，高高地飞翔在清澈明净的天空中。在他亲吻花瓣的时候，一片小叶子掉了下来，落到林中肥沃松软的泥土里，叶子即刻生根，发芽，在灌木丛中伸出幼嫩的枝条。 What a ridiculous little shoot! said one. No one will recognize it; not even the thistle nor the? stinging nettle. 可是有声音说道：“好可笑的枝条啊！没人会喜欢的，就连蓟和刺人的荨麻也不堪与之为伍的。” It must be a kind of garden plant, said another; and so they sneered and? despised the plant as a thing from a garden.? 马上有声音附和：“这肯定是来自花园的另类。”于是，“这另类”便受到大家的嘲笑和蔑视。??

And now the professor of botany presented himself, one who could explain his knowledge in black and white. He examined and tested the plant, but it did not belong to his system of botany, nor could he possibly find out to what class it did belong. It must be some degenerate species, said he; I do not know it, and it is not mentioned in any system. 冬天来了，雪盖住了它，还结出冰来，那叶子长出的植物便显得晶莹剔透，通体发光。春天到了，它开出绚烂的花来，美得让林子里所有的植物都相形见绌。这时，林子里来了一位植物学家，他是一位对植物学了如指掌的人。他细细地观察测量，却发现这株植物并不属于他所熟知的植物学范畴，也不知道该把它归属到哪个科类。“这肯定是一种退化的物种，”他说，“我不认识它，也未见它在植物分类体系中被提及过。”??? Not known in any system! repeated the thistles and the nettles.?? The large trees which grew round it saw the plant and heard the remarks, but they said not a word either good or bad, which is the wisest
