the best subject was the time when the man by the window described all the things he could see outside the window.

　　The man in the other bed would live for those one­hour periods where his world would be broadened and enlivened by all the activities and colors of the outside world. The man had said out of the window was a park with a lovely lake. Ducks and swans (天鹅) played on the water while children sailed their model boats. Lovers walked arm in arm among flowers of every color. Old trees graced the landscape,

　　and a fine view of the city skyline could be seen in the distance. As the man by the window described all these in detail,

　　the man on the other side of the room would close his eyes and imagine the scene.

　　One warm afternoon the man by the window described a parade passing by. Although the other man could not hear the band,

　　he could see it in his eye as the man by the window described it. Unexpectedly,

　　an alien thought entered his head: Why should he have all the pleasure of seeing everything while I never get to see anything? It didn't seem fair. As the thought fermented (发酵),

　　the man felt ashamed at first. But as the days passed and he missed seeing more sights,

　　his envy became resentment and soon turned him sour. These dark thoughts made himself unable to sleep. He should be by that window—and that thought now controlled his life.
