C
It had been raining for seven years on Venus (金星). The sky was covered with thick clouds, and the rain fell endlessly against the windows of the underground homes where the children lived. Margot and her classmates were waiting in their classroom, their faces pressed (紧贴) against the glass, longing for the short moment when the rain would stop.
Margot came from the earth, and she remembered the sun. She remembered its warmth on her skin and the way it made everything feel alive. Her classmates, however, had never seen the sun. They only heard stories and saw pictures. They teased Margot, saying she made it up.
“Why do you keep talking about the sun?” one of them asked. “It’s just a story.”
But Margot knew it was real. She saw it, and she longed for it every day. The teacher told them that the scientists predicted (预报) a break in the rain—two hours of sunshine. The children couldn’t control (控制) their excitement.
When the moment finally came, the rain stopped, and the clouds went away. The sun broke through, throwing its golden light over the land. The children ran outside, laughing and shouting, feeling the warmth on their faces. Margot stood back, watching them with a smile on her face. She knew the sun was real all along.
Margot’s heart was filled with joy as she saw her classmates running around, their
laughter echoing (回响) through the air. She walked outside, feeling the sun’s warmth for the first time in years. It was even more beautiful than she remembered. She closed her eyes, letting the sunlight wash over her. The other children noticed her standing there, and some of them came over to talk to her. They asked her questions about the earth and the sun, and Margot answered them happily. For the first time, she felt like she belonged (适应).
