所谓革命高潮快要到来的“快要”二字作何解释，这点是许多同志共同的问题。

马克思主义不是算命先生，未来的发展和变化，只应该也只能说出个大方向，不应该也不可能机械的规定时日。

中国革命高潮快要到来。

它是站在海岸遥望海中已经看得见桅杆尖头了的一只航船，它是立于高山之巅远看东方已见光芒四射喷薄欲出的一轮朝阳，它是躁动于母腹中的快要成熟了的一个婴儿。

---《星星之火，可以燎原》How should we explain /interpret the word “soon” in the statement, “there will soon be a high tide of revolution”? This is a common question among comrades. Marxists are not fortune-tellers. They should and indeed car, only indicate the general direction of future development and changes; they should not and cannot fix the day and hour in a mechanistic way. There will soon be a high tide of revolution in China. It is like a ship far out at sea whose mast-head can already be seen from the shore; it is like the morning sun in the east whose shimmering rays are visible from a high mountain top; it is like a baby about to be born moving restlessly in its mother’s womb.

流逝，表现了南国人对时间最早的感觉。

“子在江上曰：逝者如斯夫。

”他们发现无论是潺潺小溪，还是浩荡大河，都一去不复返，流逝之际青年变成了老翁而绿草转眼就枯黄，很自然有错阴的紧迫感。

流逝也许是缓慢的，但是无论如何缓慢，对流逝的恐惧使人们必须用“流逝”这个词来时时警戒后人，必须急匆匆地行动，给这个词灌注一种紧张感。

Flowing away embodies southerner’s earliest feelings of time.”Affected by a running river, Confucius said on the bank of the river: The passage of time is just like the flow of water. ” They realized that both the babbling brook and the mighty river would flow on, and that their waters would never return. They found that as time went by, young men would become old and the green grass would turn yellow and wither in almost the blink of an eye. Therefore, being afraid of idling away their own time, they will naturally have a sense of urgency. Maybe the passing of time is slow. But no matter how slow it is, it makes people so fearful that they use”flowing away”to warn the later generations to rush, which adds a sense of tension to the expression,

我伏在桥栏上，凝望着桥下。

桥下的河水阴沉暗淡，没有一丝意趣。

桥头的路灯洒着幽幽的寒光，寒光下的霜花晶晶闪亮。

远处灯光烁烁，透着融融的暖意；桥上却空荡荡，冷冷清清，一阵无奈的孤寂和寒意向我袭来。

I leaned over the balustrade and gazed at the river flowing under the bridge. The river looked pale and unattractive. Where the end of the bridge met the street, frast-flakes were sparking in the gleam of lamps. Over there was burning lights and the hint of warmth. Out here on the bridge it was cold and lonely. A fit of helpless solitude and cold overwhelmed me.

钟塔
第七批全国重点文物保护单位，又名柯里斯纪念楼，由美国人柯里斯捐建，1926年落成。

钟塔南倚月河池，北临一条人工渠。

钟塔原为哥特式造型，悬挂一口大钟，铭刻“纪念基督”。

钟塔曾是成都最高建筑，逢正点钟声响彻数十里。

1954年，钟塔去掉原来的哥特式塔顶，改建加高为现在的样式。

Listed among the seventh batch of major historic and cultural sites under state protection, also know as the Coles memorial clock tower, it was built with donations of J.Ackerman Coles from U.S.A and completed in 1926. It is adjacent to Yuehe Pond to the south and close to a man-made ditch to the north. The original tower top was Gothic style, hanging a large clock inscribed “In Memory of Christ”.

In 1954, the Gothic top was removed and the tower was increased in height and rebuilt to the current style.
