Perhaps it can be said that no issue is more controversial than vegetarianism. It is like a Rubik's Cube that rotates around and can be pieced together into various arbitrary combinations of planes that are difficult to unify. Religious experts say it is a religious issue - because vegetarianism originates from religious beliefs, and Buddhist scriptures, the Bible, and the Koran all have passages advising people to fast. Ecologists say it is an ecological problem - because vegetarianism can alleviate the earth's carrying and regenerative capacity, it is especially needed to be promoted in today's era of population explosion. As far as water resources are concerned, which will become the biggest panic for mankind, groundwater sources in areas with developed intensive livestock industries in the United States, Australia and other countries have been drying up due to excessive industrial use. The American "Newsweek" has a vivid description of the water consumption of the cattle industry: "The water used in one thousand pounds of beef cattle is enough to float a destroyer.

"The Stranger" is Camus' famous work, a masterpiece of existential literature, and a representative work of absurd novels. The novel tells the story of an ordinary young clerk who lives numbly in aimless inertia all day long. One day he went to the beach for vacation, got involved in a conflict, and committed a murder. Because "he did not shed a tear at his mother's funeral", he was sentenced to death by the court in the name of "the French people". The novel elaborates on an important proposition of existentialism: the absurdity and strangeness of human society in modern life lead to individual despair and nihilism. By calmly describing the entire process of a little person being "demonized" by the judicial authorities, it profoundly satirizes the hypocrisy and foolhardy nature of modern law.

Only a few towers of high-voltage transmission lines standing alone on the horizon bring a hint of industrial civilization. At the end of this gravel road, there is a small town full of decay. Older locals know that this small town once was prosperous. At that time, it was the location of the fourth oil field headquarters of Texas Didron Oil Company. The oil pumped out from dozens of oil wells around the small town supported the tanks of General Patton's Ironclad Corps galloping in the deserts of North Africa; the war eagles of General Chennault's "Flying Tigers" flew over East Asia to deal with Japanese aircraft. In order to support the operation of the huge anti-fascist war machine, Didron Oil Company's oil pumping units worked desperately. Finally, at the end of World War II, the crude oil under this desert was pumped out.

The moment he set up his broken mountain bike and walked up the steps of the mansion at the top of the low slope through the diffuse fog, he seemed to be gripped by some kind of premonition and froze in his movements of knocking on the door. However, the heavy door was not closed tightly, and a silk puppet's face suddenly popped out from the crack in the door. The skin was as pale as delicate and fragile cocoon paper. "Professor Gu, you are finally here! I have been waiting for you for a long time, and I was worried that you would not be able to find this place when the fog started. By the way, I am Xu Yixuan who sent you the email!" When the "silk puppet" saw him, it made a cheerful teenage voice, hurriedly crossed the high threshold, and came up to shake hands. He retracted his hand to avoid the other party's enthusiasm, and the fingertips he touched were strangely cold. "You have the wrong person. Do you have a wrench?"

Song Yuhe rushed to the unit out of breath and didn't even have time to eat breakfast. Director Jiang is a ruthless person. Anyone who is late for work will definitely be fined. "Yu He, haven't you heard? Director Jiang is bleeding!" As soon as Yu He entered the unit, Zhao Nan, the driver of the bureau, ran to the corridor and shouted loudly. "What's wrong, Director?" Yu He asked in surprise. "The director suffered a cerebral hemorrhage last night and was sent to the hospital. Director Zhao and Director Wang from our unit went to see him early in the morning." Only then did Yu He understand Zhao Nan's obviously ambiguous words. Director Jiang's body is called fat, it's strange that he doesn't have this disease! "Yu He, come here."

"No. 3, Dingxiang Street, Murong's family, private seal!" The postman shouted at the top of his lungs, halfway on his motorcycle, toward the courtyard door. At this time, the sun had just risen, but the people doing Tai Chi, walking birds, and drinking soy milk and eating glutinous rice and fried dough sticks were all gone. Those who should go to work have already left on their bicycles. Those who didn't have a good job were busy washing rice and washing vegetables under the tap at home, preparing lunch and dinner. A busy alley suddenly became deserted. The grandma of the Ding family ran out of the house in a hurry. Now the postman is getting more and more impatient. He called twice but no one answered, so he ran away as if he had put on a hot wheel. The registered letter sent by An An that day was just because the delivery was a little slow, so I had to wait for a week to get it.

Before leaving for Xinjiang, Long Xiao went to Mount Wutai. Mount Wutai is the first of the four most famous Buddhist mountains in China. It is the monastery of Manjushri Bodhisattva and is also included in the World Cultural Landscape Heritage list. But Long Xiao went there not to worship Buddha or to travel, but just because he felt that doing so would make him feel more at ease. Long Xiao also sat by the TV and leaned in front of the computer to pay attention to what happened in Urumqi that summer. He was very worried about the people there. Later, every time Long Xiao heard news about Xinjiang, it was almost always related to that. But after all, the distance was far away, more than 3,000 kilometers away from his hometown. It took more than 30 hours by express train and nearly 4 hours by plane. It felt like two worlds. Occasionally I want to eat mutton skewers, so I look for those men with tall noses and deep eyes.

Six miles east of Shuangta Town, the Tanxiang River, a tributary of Weishan Lake, flows slowly next to the Shuangta Mine. The water is three meters deep and dark green. On both sides of the river, the flat golden wheat fields stretched to the Shuangta Mine, eight hundred meters away from the river bank. When approaching, the wheat fields deftly bypassed the coal mines, and then the golden plains continued. The poplar trees on the bank grow at a rate of ten centimeters every year because of the nourishment of the river. The branches and leaves are smooth and green, forming two long stretches of shade. If there is a stormy weather, the poplar leaves will fall down a thick layer, and because they have been soaked by the rain, it will feel like walking on a carpet when people walk on it. And in the hazy evening, hares will also run over from the golden wheat fields and sit on the leaves to enjoy the coolness. At this time, the chirping of cicadas drowned out the quarrels of the sparrows, and the cuckoos with strange calls also enjoyed the coolness here.

The train is like a slow image of time, hiding its deafening roar on the paper. If one looks back from the poem, he will suddenly fall into the past full of rhythm. However, if you look at it from the perspective of writing, the huge inertia of the train seems more suitable to be used to set up suspense. If it is one meter away from the novel or three meters away from the prose, can it kiss the cool tip of the muse's nose in time? Italian writer Calvino once wrote: "A locomotive whined, the steam from the piston filled the beginning of this chapter, and a cloud of smoke covered part of the first paragraph."

Niushan and seven key militiamen were hiding on the ridge beside the wormwood. There were four of them on each side, lined up like a confrontation in a war. But what they held was not a gun, but a thick hemp rope tightly held in each hand. They pulled one end, two in total, like two frozen snakes lying in the middle of the road. They tugged every now and then, as if they were afraid it would break. In addition, each person also has a five-foot-long wooden stick in his arms, which is as thick as a doll's arm. They were all highly vigilant, holding their breath, their eyes were red, and they stared at the path in front of them like hounds. One end of the road wound around, leading to the back beam of Beishan, and the other end stretched towards the village down the slope. Any clues or disturbances on the road would affect their tense nerves. This is a secret arrest operation. The person responsible for this arrest mission is the militia company commander, Niushan.
