It can also display average pulse width or average timedelay between multiple pulses.Time interval is measured between inputs on channels A andB. Timing starts when a pulse is applied to Channel A (selectablepositive or negative edge), and ends when a pulse is applied toChannel B (selectable positive or negative edge). In case of asingle pulsed signal, the A and B inputs can be tied together. Apositive or negative slope may be selected to start timing, andthe opposite slope must be selected to stop timing. Timing isachieved by counting 5.5 MHz clock pulses. Multiple integral timeintervals are averaged over a gate time which is selectable from10 ms to 199.99 s and also controls the display update time.Time interval can be displayed in seconds, milliseconds, ormicroseconds with 6-digit resolution. In the typical application,time is displayed in milliseconds with 1 µs resolution. For timesless than 100 ms, display resolution down to 0.2 µs can beachieved by applying a multiplier of 10, moving the decimal pointby one position, and averaging many time intervals.Highly accurate rate can be displayed by taking the inverse oftime. Extensive arithmetic capabilities allow display inengineering units, such as meters/sec. Rate based on timerequires use of the Extended counter main board.The FR dual-channel signal conditioner board accepts inputsfrom proximity switches with PNP or NPN output, TTL or CMOSlogic, magnetic pickups, contact closures, and other signals from12 mV to 250 Vac. Jumper selections provide optimum operationfor different sensor types and noise conditions. A built-in isolated5, 10, or 24 Vdc excitation supply can power proximity switchesand other sensors, and eliminate the need for an external powersupply.Designed for system use. Optional plug-in boards includeEthernet and other serial communication boards, dual or quadrelay boards, and an isolated analog output board. Laureatesmay be powered from 85-264 Vac or optionally from 12-32 Vacor 10-48 Vdc. The display is available with red or green LEDs.The 1/8 DIN case meets NEMA 4X (IP65) specifications from thefront when panel mounted. Any setup functions and front panelkeys can be locked out for simplified usage and security. A built-in isolated 5, 10, or 24 Vdc excitation supply can power trans-ducers and eliminate the need for an external power supply.All power and signal connections are via UL / VDE / CSA ratedscrew clamp plugs.SpecificationsDisplayReadoutRangeIndicators6 LED digits, 7-segment, 14.2 mm (.56"), red or green-999999 to +999999Four LED lampsInputsTypes Grounding Minimum Signal Maximum Signal Noise Filter Contact Debounce AC, pulses from NPN, PNP transistors, contact closures, magnetic pickups.

Time Interval Mode for Pulse WidthThe width of periodic pulses (t1 or t2) can be measured by tying the A and B channels together. As for time delay, readings are averaged over a user-selectable gate time. Timing Process DynamicsThe start and stop pulses used for timing can be generated by the dual relay board in a Laureate panel meter or digital counter. For instance, the start and stop pulse edges can be created as temperature passes two alarm setpoints, or temperature cycles in a hysteresis control mode. Rate Based on 1 / TimeThe start and stop pulses used for timing can be generated by the dual relay board in a Laureate panel meter or digital counter. For instance, the start and stop pulse edges can be created as temperature passes two alarm setpoints, or temperature cycles in a hysteresis control mode.Replacing an Oscilloscope with a Laureate Time Interval MeterAn oscilloscope is great for viewing and timing pulses in a lab. However, in fixed installations where digital timing accuracy and control outputs are required, a low-cost Laureate time interval meter will be the instrument of choice. Resolution to 0.2 µs is feasible.Instrumenting a Pulsed Laser SystemSome of the many possibilities in instrumenting a pulsed laser system with Laureate dual-channelcounters: elapsed time, number of pulses, pulse width, pulse separation, duty cycle, and pulse rep rate.Ordering GuideCreate a model number in this format: L50000FR, IPCMain Board L5 Standard Main Board, Green LEDsL6 Standard Main Board, Red LEDsL7 Extended Main Board, Green LEDsL8 Extended Main Board, Red LEDsNote: Use of the Extended Main Board makes this counter also suitable for A-B time interval,frequency, rate, period, square root of rate, up or down total, arithmetic functions, simultaneousrate and total, phase, duty cycle, batching, and custom curve linearization.Power0 Isolated 85-264 Vac1 Isolated 12-32 Vac or 10-48 VdcRelay Output (isolated) 0 None1 Two 8A Contact Relays2 Two 120 mA Solid State Relays3 Four 8A Contact Relays4 Four 120 mA Solid State RelaysAnalog Output (isolated) 0 None1 Single isolated 4-20 mA, 0-20 mA, 0-10V, -10 to +10V2 Dual isolated 4-20 mA, 0-20 mA, 0-10VDigital Interface (isolated) 0 None1 RS2322 RS485 (dual RJ11 connectors)4 RS485 Modbus (dual RJ45 connectors)5 USB6 USB-to-RS485 converter7 Ethernet8 Ethernet-to-RS485 converterInput Type FR Dual-Channel Pulse Input Signal ConditionerAdd-on Options CBL01RJ11-to-DB9 cable.

2.QIBAO SHADOW PLAYAGT（皮影戏馆）
Shadow Plays were once a feature of Shanghai culture but it was a man named Mao Gengyu from Qibao Town who first introduced this art to Shanghai area. The Qibao Shadow Play performs mainly entertainments based on widely-known historical events with the local dialect, thus giving the shows a truly local character. The plays are performed using colorful drawings and expressive music to illustrate the emotions of the characters. In October of 1988, some amateur artists held a special exhibition of paintings of the shadow play, so as to develop a wider appreciation of this magnificent form of folk art.

专题07 阅读理解(夹叙夹议类) -备战2022年高考英语母题题源解密(全国通用)(原卷版)
专题07 阅读理解（夹叙夹议类）【母题来源】2021年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试（天津卷）英语笔试（第一次）【母题题文】About five weeks ago, I noticed the skin of our pet lizard was growing dusty. It worried me. I reported the strange surface on the skin of the lizard to my husband and children the next morning. Seconds later, our lizard emerged from its tank with its old skin flowing behind it.I didn't think about it much until a morning last week when I knocked my favorite teapot off the table. It burst into hundreds of pieces. As I swept up the mess, I wondered why we had been breaking so many things over the months.The destruction started three months ago. It was my husband's birthday. He had just lost his job. The uncertainty was starting to wear on us, so I wanted to do something special.“Let's make a cake for Dad!” I cried.My kids screamed with joy. We baked, iced and sprinkled for most of the day. Candles on the cake! Balloons on the walls! Flowers on the table!Two hours before my husband came back home from another job interview, my daughter climbed up to grab a glass vase from a high shelf. It fell and crashed beside the cake. Tiny pieces of glass were everywhere. She sobbed loudly as I threw the cake away. My husband had banana pudding for his birthday.Three days ago, the light in our living room suddenly went out. After several frustrating hours of unsuccessful attempts to fix it, my husband suggested watching the Michael Jordan documentary series The Last Dance.The poignancy of Jordan retiring from his beloved basketball to play baseball and what had pushed him to make such a tough decision took me by surprise. As I watched him take off his basketball uniform and replace it with a baseball uniform, I saw him leaving behind the layer that no longer served him, just as our lizard had. Neither of them chose the moment that had transformed them. But they had to live with who they were after everything was different. Just like us. I realized that wehave to learn to leave the past behind.Humans do not shed skin as easily as other animals. The beginning of change is upsetting. The process is tiring. Damage changes us before we are ready. I see our lizard, raw and nearly new.Jordan said that no matter how it ends, it starts with hope. With our tender, hopeful skin, that is where we begin.40. What can we learn about the pet lizard from Paragraph 1?A. Its tank grew dirty.B. Its old skin came off.C. It got a skin disease.D. It went missing.41. Why did the author's husband have banana pudding for his birthday?A. The birthday cake was ruined.B. The author made good puddings.C. Pudding was his favorite dessert.D. They couldn't afford a birthday cake.42. Why does the author mention The Last Dance in the passage?A. To prove a theory.B. To define a concept.C. To develop the theme.D. To provide the background.43. The underlined part "leaving behind the layer" in Paragraph 8 can be understood as .A. letting go of the pastB. looking for a new jobC. getting rid of a bad habitD. giving up an opportunity44. What does the author most likely want to tell us?A. Love of family helps us survive great hardships.B. It's not the end of the world if we break things.C. We should move on no matter what happens.D. Past experiences should be treasured.1.衡水中学2020—2021学年度上学期高三年级七调考试I'd been a sked to go to an editor's office with the old program “We have a story we think you'd be perfect for”. Here was the topic: We want you to write about how middle-aged men have no friends. Seeing that,I couldn't help thinking, “Excuse me? I have plenty of friends.” Then the editor told me there were all sorts of evidence out there to show how men, as they age, let their close friendships go, and that the fact can cause all sorts of problems and have a terrible impact on their health.As I walked back to my desk in the newsroom-a distance of maybe 100 yards-I quickly took stockof my friend list. First of all, there was my friend Mark. Wait, how often do we actually hang out? Maybe four or five times a year? And then there was another best friend from high school, Rory, and…I actually could not remember the last time I'd seen him.There were all those other good friends who seemed as if they're still in my life because we follow one another via social media, but as I ran down the list of those I considered real, true, lifelong friends, I realized that it had been years since I saw many of them, even decades for a few.By the time I got back to my desk, I realized that I was indeed perfect for this story, not because I was unusual in any way, but because my story was very, very typical. And as I looked into what that means, I realized that in the long term, I was heading down a path that was very, very dangerous. AndI knew I needed a change.4. What did the author think of the topic at first?A. He showed an interest in it.B. He felt surprised and doubtful.C. He knew the editor was joking.D. He thought it was perfect for him.5. What did the author realize as walking back to the newsroom?A. He had lost some best friends.B. He wasn't popular with others.C. He had close friends in his life.D. He hadn't made any true friends.6. How did the author keep his friendship?A. By letters.B. Through the Internet.C. By phoning each other.D. By getting together regularly.7. What do we know from the last paragraph?A. The author was a good writer.B. The author liked making new friends.C. Others had more friends than the author.D. The author would attach importance to friendship.2.江苏无锡市2021届高三年级第一次模拟考试Gabriela worked for a multinational company as a successful project manager in Brazil. Latershe was transferred to manage a team in Sweden. She was excited about her new role but soon realized that managing her new team would be a challenge.Despite their friendliness, Gabriela didn’t feel respected as a leader. H er new staff would question her proposals openly in meetings. When she gave them instructions on how to carry out a task, they would often go about it in their own way without checking with her. When she announced her decisions on the project, they would continue giving their opinions as if it were still up for discussion.What Gabriela was experiencing was a cultural shock in expectations. Dutch psychologist Geert Hofstede uses the concept of “power distance” to describe how power is distributed in differe nt cultures. In her previous work environment, Gabriela was used to a high power distance culture where power is respected. In such a culture, leaders make the big decisions and are not often challenged. Her Swedish team, however, were used to working in a low power distance culture where employees often work together with their bosses to find solutions and make decisions. Here, leaders act as coaches who encourage independent thought and expect to be challenged.When Gabriela became aware of the cultural differences between her and her team, she took the initiative (主动权) to have an open conversation with them about their feelings about her leadership.Pleased to be asked for their thoughts, Gabriela’s team openly expressed that they were not used to being told what to do. They enjoyed having more room for initiative and creative freedom. When she told her team exactly what she needed them to do, they felt that she didn’t trust them to do their job well.With a better understanding of the reasons behind each other’s behavior，Gabriela was able to make adjustments to her management style. Finally she effectively motivated her team to achieve their goals.14．What problem did Gabriela face with her Swedish team at the beginning?A．Her Swedish staff didn’t understa nd her instructions.B．Her authority was challenged by her Swedish staff.C．They were always refusing to follow her directions.D．They looked down upon her because she was a female.15．What is encouraged in the working culture in Sweden?A．Professional spirit and risk-taking behavior. B．Independent thinking and friendly atmosphere.C．Active participation and creative thinking.

During this period in their life people often begin to discover what is meaningful to them and how they plan to continue living their life. My volunteer experience at St. Clare’s Hospital has helped me form this positive experience during my high school years; through valuable lessons I have learned life skills and have begun to shape my values and mind-set. In the course of my volunteering at the hospital I have discovered how to interact with others, learned to respect diversity, realized the importance of service, and gained perspective. When I first began volunteering, I was very nervous about meeting new people and being pushed outside of my comfort zone. I am learning to introduce myself to new volunteers, go out of my way to make patients feel welcome, and overall how to extend a hand of friendship to others. Not only does this skill apply to my personal life, but will also be extremely helpful in my academic life and the “real world.”I think one of the most significant values I have gained through my experience at St. Clare’s Hospital is the importance of service. Service, involves making a difference in the lives of others and contributing to the community. Each time I end my volunteer shift, I feel better and as if I have done something worthwhile. This feeling has fueled me to continue volunteering, and has now become something I see as irreplaceable. In the past I have been frustrated by my situation, and was discouraged because I felt I might not make a significant difference due to my young age. However, I am relieved of this because I feel that through the hospital volunteer program I can try to do my part and help others.I genuinely think that without my volunteer experience at St. Clare’s Hospital, I may have been a different person, lacking these skills and ideals. I have matured and gained valuable skills, as well as learned important lessons about life. Many people my age do not have an experience similar to this, where they are in an environment based only upon healing and helping others, and I think they have truly missed out. I will continue on this path of service throughout my life, and I know that because of my volunteer experience I have benefited, and that these benefits will carry on as I develop and become an adult.9．According to the passage, why is a person’s high school years important?A．Because people do volunteer work during this time.B．Because it is a time to interact with others.C．Because during this period, people begin to shape their lives.D．Because it is a time to discover the meaning of volunteering.10．What is the second paragraph mainly about?A．I realized the importance of service. B．Each time I end my volunteer job, I feel better. C．Service is something irreplaceable. D．I am relieved of frustration.11．According to the passage, which of the following statement is true?A．During the author’s high school years he formed the positive experience.B．When the author first began volunteering, he was excited to meet new people.C．The author became lacking skills and ideals after volunteering at St. Clare’s Hospital. D．Many high school students are in an environment based only upon healing and helping others. 12．What sort of person was the author before he began volunteering?A．Hesitating. B．Lonely. C．Generous. D．Unconfident.13．What does the author mainly want to tell us in the passage?A．High school years are the most important period.B．He missed the experience during his high school years.C．He has benefited from his volunteer experience at St. Clare’s Hospital.D．He was pushed outside of his comfort zone when working at St. Clare’s Hospital.。
Tiny Times
AUDIO-VISUAL WORLDTiny Times《小时代》Xi2o Sh!d3iDirectorGuo JingmingProducerAn XiaofenWriterGuo Jingming O f the inwardly-looking sociologicalportraits of China that get unveiledto her mainstream audience, feware taken seriously. Often, the Westassumes that these pictures must provide defying commentary on the hardships of lifein a struggling country or under an oppressive government. Films like T o Live or Raise the Red Lantern are held by many in the West as the pinnacle of Chinese cinema—pictures that paint a bleak picture of what it means to live in China. What the scholars from the West are loathe to take into account are the push and pull of hidden and unseen forces on the ideologies, desires and tastes of the Chinese people.Similarly, in looking at a fi lm such as high-school dropout-turned-writer Guo Jingming’s Tiny Times, critics in both Chinese and Western fi lm circlesfi nd it an easy target for discussing the latest horrifi c trends in Chinese society, namely the absurd materialism that the four main characters exhibit. Y es, Tiny Times is a fi lm that refl ectsthe highest pinnacle of a quiet writer-turned-fi lmmaker’s male chauvinist dream. Y es, it is true that Tiny Times is lit with the insufferable glowof a 24 carat diamond, portraying Shanghaias an ever-reaching mountain of opulence and glamour. Y es, the dialogue of Tiny Times is asartifi cial and machine-like as an automaton running out of batteries. And yes, Tiny Times is, without a doubt, yet another Chinese take on Western blockbusters—in this case, The Devil Wears Prada.Our lives kept turning like this, day by day, seconds, minutes, hours—dragging shadows along to become an era.W6men de sh8ngm#ng ji& zh-y3ng y#ti`n y#ti`n dezhu3nd7ngzhe, mi2ozh8n, f8nzh8n, sh!zh8n, tu4zhe x$y@ng zhu3nd7ng ch9ng zh-ge p1ngd3 de sh!d3i.我们的生命就这样一天一天地转动着，秒针，分针，时针, 拖着虚影转动成这个庞大的时代。
Tiny Times China’s Sex and the City
If he were alive, Mao Zedong might shudder in disgust. The founding father of the People‟s Republic of China had a predilection for propaganda movies. But in today‟s China one of the biggest film sensations is Tiny Times – a romantic-drama series thatwould no doubt shock and perplex him.Tiny Times couldn‟t be further from Mao‟s ascetic communism: it is a wholesale celebration of conspicuous consumption and materialism that has been described as a cross between Sex and the City and The Devil Wears Prada.The series follows four attractive, fashion-obsessed young women in Shanghai: Lily, Ruby, Lin and Nan Xiang. It chronicles their lives and romances. The actresses look perfect – nicely groomed and slim. There are constant references to sports cars and expensive brands such as Prada and Gucci. The characters are often in opulent surroundings as they enter into relationships with handsome, well-dressed men.“It is essentially a visual version of Vogue, strung together by a thin plot made up of pretentious dialogue,” says Bede Cheng, senior program manager at Metroplex Cinema in Hong Kong. To him the series is “essentially a film about rich, spoiled, single kids, made for spoiled single kids, who want to be rich and beautiful like the characters in the film”.But clearly not everyone is put off by this franchise – it has legions of fans and support for its craftsmanship. “I think it‟s right up there with Hollywood films. It‟s a very p olished look, you‟re getting great art design, great set design, you‟re getting great costumes. You know I was very impressed when I first saw it just from a cinematography or visual standpoint,” says Los Angeles-based Robert Lundberg at China Lion Film – the company that distributed the first two Tiny Times pictures in the US.It‟s also a concoction that‟s proving to be exceedingly lucrative, bringing in more than $200 million so far at the Chinese box office. When the third installment opened last month it was sufficiently potent to push the heavyweight Hollywood blockbuster Transformers: Age of Extinction into second place. A fourth film is in the pipeline eagerly awaited by hordes of fans.According to Beijing-based Stephen Cremin, who publishes Film Business Asia, the arrival of the first Tiny Times installment last year heralded a new development in China‟s cinema. It was, as he puts it, “the first high-profile film to appeal primarily to the generation born in the 1990s who‟ve become the main moviego ing audience in China”.Material girlsThis audience has strongly aspirational tastes and it‟s changing the face of Chinese cinema. It represents a huge new market that‟s come into being as a result of reforms in China in the 1990s that fostered economic growth.“I couldn‟t imagine in the late 80‟s that you would have movies like this,” says Tansen Sen, a professor of Asian history at Baruch College, “This is a totally new phenomenon. Things changed very rapidly. By the middle of the …90s this materialis tic world was in place.”The Tiny Times films have most definitely touched a raw nerve – and one that remains quite sensitive. The franchise has rankled those who think individualism and materialism have gone too far in China.“It‟s a mirror to how socie ty has traveled in the past decade or two, the lack of moral grounding, the blatant material worship, the lack of real humanity, real purpose in life,” says Ying Zhu, professor of media culture at City University of New York.She is also perturbed by the way in which the young women in Tiny Times are portrayed. “Women are depicted as nobody,” she complains. They‟re inhabitants of this materialistic universe with values defined by money. “They aspire for wealthy men,” she says.This film franchise is very much the product of a single individual, 31-year-old writer-turned-director Guo Jingming. The films are based on his novels.“He sees China as a very pop culture oriented society,” says Tansen Sen. “There‟s no sense that this was a communist society that he was describing. So I think there‟s a disconnect between what he is writing about and the society in which he lives.”Guo's work – and the values found in his writings – partly reflect his background and longings.“He was a single-child who tasted the first fruits of China‟s economic reforms. From a modest middle-class background in Szechuan he probably has dreams of making it big in the big city,” says Bede Cheng.His background puts him in a very good position to understand his target audience –youn g people who live in what are referred to as …second-tier- cities, such as Chongqing, Nanjing and Wuhan. In other words it‟s a young urban audience, but not one that resides in the metropolises of Beijing or Shanghai. It‟s an audience group that‟s perhaps less sophisticated but has strong materialistic longings – and Tiny Times caters very skillfully to it.Massive cinema growth in China in recent years has also enabled the film business to harness the purchasing power of this young audience. It‟s an expan ding group that, having now tasted Tiny Times, is demanding more of the same. The film industry is rushing to make the movies that this group wants to watch.“Gone is the epic history drama. The teen romance and romantic comedy have become the predominant genre now. Producers have moved in like a swarm to make these,” says Bede Cheng.Consumerism‟s criticsTo one of China‟s leading film critics, Raymond Chou, Tiny Times is quite simply taking the country in the wrong direction. “It‟s hinting to the young generation that you can do anything to win material goods because that‟s how your value is determined, [by] the kind of clothes you wear, the kind of bags you carry,” he says. “That‟s the message.”But Cremin suggests that all the fuss over Tiny Times, especially when it was launched last year, may be an over-reaction. Some of the oppositional passion has now dissipated – much, but not all of it, was coming from older people – a group that clearly isn‟t the target audience. He says, “It‟s like the first M cDonalds openingin China –but a year later it‟s just another part of the ever-changing film landscape.”However, Tiny Times remains a film franchise that still fires up its critics. Not all of them view it – and the materialism of modern China that it reflects – as an unstoppable force. Professor Ying Zhu says, “There are people who are pushing back, there are people who are more critical who are trying to put a distance, trying to put a stop or pause on this fast-moving trend. They are a younger generation who are very critical of the film. Society is a lot more complex then what this film tries to capture.”But in the meantime the appealing young faces of Tiny Times with all their shiny designer outfits and material riches will continue to light up cinema screens across China. Its bold, materialistic worldview couldn‟t be more different from the austere and collectivist one envisioned by Mao Zedong more than 60 years ago. But Tiny Times is more than a film series capable of startling the founding father of the People‟s Republic – it also demonstrates how cinema be part of an intense debate over a country‟s future.More：外贸英语学习/study-trade.html。
时光荏苒成就显的英语作文
Time,the relentless force that marches on,has a profound impact on our lives.As it passes,it shapes us,molds our experiences,and leaves its indelible mark on our memories.The English essay that follows is a reflection on the passage of time and its effects on personal growth and achievements.In the realm of lifes journey,time is the most impartial companion.It does not discriminate,it does not pause,and it does not rewind.Each tick of the clock is a testament to the relentless march of time,and as it slips through our fingers,it leaves behind a trail of experiences that define us.From the moment we are born,time begins to sculpt our lives.It is the silent architect of our growth,guiding us through the stages of infancy,childhood,adolescence,and into adulthood.Each phase is marked by milestones that are as unique as the individuals who experience them.Time teaches us to walk,to talk,to learn,and to love.It is the canvas upon which the colors of our lives are painted.As we grow older,we begin to realize the value of time.We learn to appreciate the moments that make us laugh,the experiences that make us cry,and the memories that make us smile.Time becomes a precious commodity,something to be cherished and not wasted.We start to understand that the moments we have are finite,and that each second spent is a second that will never return.In our pursuit of success and achievement,time becomes both an ally and an adversary.It is the measure by which we gauge our progress and the yardstick against which we measure our goals.We race against time to accomplish our dreams,to reach our potential, and to make our mark on the world.Yet,time also reminds us of our limitations,teaching us that we cannot do everything and that we must prioritize our efforts.The passage of time also brings about change,both within ourselves and in the world around us.It is the catalyst for transformation,pushing us to adapt,to evolve,and to grow. We learn from our past,we live in the present,and we plan for the future.Time teaches us resilience,as we face challenges and overcome obstacles.It also teaches us humility, as we realize that we are but a small part of the grand tapestry of life.As we reflect on the passage of time,we are reminded of the achievements that we have made and the goals that we have yet to reach.Time is the great equalizer,giving each of us the opportunity to make the most of the moments we are given.It is a reminder to seize the day,to pursue our passions,and to strive for excellence.In conclusion,time is the silent force that shapes our lives,influencing our growth,our achievements,and our perspectives.It is a constant reminder of the importance of living life to the fullest,of cherishing the moments we have,and of making every second count. As we continue our journey through life,let us embrace the passage of time,learn from it, and use it as a guide to achieve our dreams and aspirations.。

The classical sentenses
We live in the vastness of the universe, cosmic dust floating in the sky and the Milky light dust, we are more than the small. You don't know when life suddenly change direction, and caught in ink, thick and dark. You have been dragged into the abyss of disappointment, you are closer to the grave illness, you have been trampled frustration injured all over the body, you are ridiculed,satired, hated, abandoned. But we are always at heart retains hope, keeping unwilling to give up beating heart. We still have a little effort in the great despair. This does not want to give up the mood, they become the little star without the edge of the dark. We are all little stars.
GU LI
"The leaves wither, crown crooked drop": from the crown can be inferred from that this crooked drop cherry refers to Queen Gu Li, if in full accordance with the novel, the leaves should refer to her suffering from uterine cancer, this point at the end of the third ,she took in the bathroom after Gu yuan's phone and before flush the toilet,her expression also foreshadowed. “叶子枯萎、皇冠歪掉”：从皇冠歪掉可以推测出来这个樱 桃指的是女王顾里，如果完全按照小说所写，叶子枯萎应该 指的是她患了子宫癌，这一点第三部最后结尾她在卫生间接 了顾源的电话之后马桶冲水之前的表情也有埋下伏笔。
Something I wanna say
For me, the "Tiny times" is not only novels, comic books, or movies. Five years of novel, four years of film, add up to ten years of time. Slowly, from 2007 it began to appear in the "zui novel" , to 2015 the fourth film in the end. When I was a sixth-grade puple,I cry for the novel.When I am freshman,I still cry for the movie. Probably in addition to school textbooks, the "tiny time" is my whole youth.There are so many people in the comments of "tiny time", I am not with that. I just wanna say, whether it is the sixth-grade or now, I see love only .
Tang wan ru
"Bleed": This is easy to speculate, it should refer to Tang wanru was disfigured. According to the third novel of the plot, after an all people noisy tussle, Tang Wanru was pushed in the broken glass. Her face was disfigured, and changed after cure injury.

“缠绕黑纱”：黑纱樱桃排在海报的第一位置，所 以我就理所当然的联想到是林萧了。小说的结局是 除了林萧和宫洺，所有人都死在了上海1115特大火 灾的现场。
Nan xiang
"Covered with sharp spines": refers to Nanxiang. The end of the novel, Nanxiang break with Guli and Linxiao , move out of the home, trailer which also has a similar plot display. “尖刺满身”：这个应该指的是南湘了。小 说快结尾的地方，南湘跟顾里林萧决裂，从 顾里家搬出来，预告片里面也有显示类似的 情节。
我们活在浩瀚的宇宙里，漫天漂浮的宇宙尘 埃和星河光尘，我们是比这些还要渺小的存 在。你并不知道生活在什么时候突然改变方 向，陷入墨水一般浓稠的黑暗里去。你被失 望拖进深渊，你被疾病拉近坟墓，你被挫折 践踏的体无完肤，你被嘲笑、被讽刺、被讨 厌、被怨恨、被放弃。但是我们却总在内心 里保留着希望保留着不甘心放弃跳动的心。 我们依然在大大的绝望里小小的努力着。这 种不想放弃的心情，它们变成无边黑暗的小 小星辰。我们都是小小的星辰。
Let's talk about the movies
Cherry , pronunciation similar with Cherish, cherish the last time together . 樱桃（Cherry），寓意珍惜的发音（Cherish）， 珍惜最后在一起的时光.
“受伤流血”：这个比较容易推测，应该指的是唐 宛如毁容。根据小说第三部的情节，某次所有人大 吵厮打之后，唐宛如被推倒在摔碎的玻璃上，脸部 毁容，后来治好伤口之后性情大变。
