📖 英文原文
Every summer, I visit the old town by the sea. The place has changed a lot, but some parts still remind me of my childhood. I walk along the narrow streets, where the past seems to live again. A group of children are playing near the old clock tower, and I remember how I used to run there every day. The sun is setting, and the air feels warm. I sit on a bench and watch the waves come in. It's amazing how time moves, and how it leaves behind traces that we can find again. I have been coming here for years, and each visit brings new memories.
📝 中文翻译
每年夏天，我都会去海边的小镇。这个地方已经变化了很多，但有些地方仍然让我想起童年。我沿着狭窄的小巷走着，过去似乎又回来了。一群孩子在古老的钟楼附近玩耍，我回想起自己以前每天都会跑那里。太阳正在下山，空气温暖而舒适。我坐在长椅上看着海浪涌来。时间流逝的方式真令人惊叹，它留下了我们可以再次找到的痕迹。我已经来这里多年了，每次来访都会带来新的回忆。
