" H# H) [# x9 U成都的夏天可以达到摄氏35、36度的高温。虽然温度比不上重庆、武汉等大火炉,潮湿闷热的程度却更是要些耐力忍受。坐在阴凉之中一动不动,也会是一身湿汗淋淋。所以最期盼的,是来场“天东雨”,或“白雨”。

天东雨,来得快,去得也快。炎热湿闷中,本来还是骄阳当头,瞬间几声雷鸣,乌云盖顶。还来不及寻找躲避的地方,就倾盆而下。慌忙中找到躲雨的地方,又已是雨过天青。刚现身再上路,眨眼又是一顿瓢泼,让人狼狈不堪。所以成都也有“天东雨,下三场”之说。

成都人的“白雨”,是指夏天里明日当头随风而来、随风而去的清凉阵雨。也象天东雨一样来去匆匆,经常没有先兆地在晴空里飘飘而下。那时候,觉得最遐意的,就是站在白日清风里,让雨水浇在头面上,沁澈心扉。

After a Summer Shower

Chengdu is very hot and humid in the summer. At the time that air conditioning was only a luxury heard from movies, a summer shower is the best thing people can have to cool down the heat wave. 5 q9 i9 Q7 {7 E; [ W+ ^: k

In middle school, I spent many after-school hours painting water color around suburbs of Chengdu. This is probably the most typical scenery in the countryside around Chengdu in the 70's and early 80's. 0 S. k$ M+ d# d: K# C% x
