Somebody likes white and delicate and charming camellia, somebody likes the rose with tangy aroma, and I like however " piece silty and do not catch, wash clear ripples and not bewitching " lotus.
有人喜欢洁白娇艳的山茶，有人喜欢香气扑鼻的玫瑰，而我却喜欢“出淤泥而不染，濯清涟而不妖”的荷花。

Its fragrance can be sucked draw bee, butterfly and dragonfly, let them be intoxicated amid.
荷花还没有开时，先是一个嫩绿的小芽，它从嫩绿的小芽，经过一日又一日，变成了粉色的花苞，再慢慢展开，从像扇子一样的半圆，到将圆，到满圆。它的香味会吸引来蜜蜂、蝴蝶和蜻蜓，让它们陶醉在其中。
The leaf of lotus is very beautiful, its leaf has a plenty of a needle, have a plenty of a circle, some is fat fat, very full. Color is very special also, some all over the body are aglow, do not leave little white, some leaf are from scarlet to white gradual change color, some petaline heads are pink, the body is white, anyhow, in my eye, the leaf of lotus is the most beautiful.
荷花的花瓣很美，它的花瓣有的是尖的、有的是圆的、有的胖胖的，很饱满。颜色也很特别，有的满身通红，不留一点点白，有的花瓣是从深红到白的渐变色，有的花瓣头是粉红色，身体都是白色，总之，在我的眼中，荷花的花瓣是最美的。

荷花不仅有供人观赏的花朵和叶子，还有藏在水底的藕和长在花芯里的莲蓬。藕是荷花的根，需要人们用铲子从淤泥里挖出来，藕可以做菜，做粉，做甜品。藕只要断开，就会拉出长长的丝，这就是“藕断丝连”。在花瓣的中间，有一个黄色的小莲蓬，上面有一个一个圆圆的小洞，从它的洞里可以取出莲子，它可以煮粥，入药，但是一定要把莲子的芯去掉，否则吃起来会感觉有点苦，莲蓬还可以做工艺品，摆在家里很有禅意。
The vitality of lotus is very tenacious, summer, burning sun high above in the sky, scorching, a lot of flowers are basked in downheartedly, crestfallen, but it holds its head high however hold out a bosom, the face brings a smile, more see drive, bring beautiful enjoyment to the tourist, this is the reason that people admires it.
荷花的生命力很顽强，夏天，烈日当空，骄阳似火，许多花儿都被晒得无精打采，垂头丧气，但它却昂首挺胸，面带微笑，更见精神，给游客带来美的享受，这就是人们都欣赏它的原因。

Then, I stride a stride to go to the school.
有一次，我去学校上学，经过一个小池塘，天气炎热，我热得连路都不想走，但我看到了荷花正笔直得站在池塘里，一派生机勃勃的景象，我想，荷花不畏酷暑，那么坚强，我为什么做不到？于是，我就迈开大步向学校走去。
Lotus, thank you, you let me understand what is altruistic dedication, also let me learn adamancy, I should learn to you.
荷花，谢谢你，你让我明白了什么是无私奉献，也让我学会了坚强，我要向你学习。
