L57-4: Back in the old country
The curious thing was that the lake was not marked on the map.
I left as if I had stumbled into a nightmare country,
as you sometimes do in dreams.
And, as in a nightmare, there was nobody in sight to help me.
Fortunately for me,
as I was wondering what to do next,
there appeared on the horizon a man on horseback, riding in my direction.
I waited till he came near,
then I asked him the way to our old village.
He said that there was now no village.
I thought he must have misunderstood me,
so I repeated its name.
This time he pointed to the lake.
The village no longer existed because it had been submerged, and all the valley too. The lake was not a natural one, but a man-made reservoir.
应用配置：L0+L4

练习感悟：用时28钟。有点尴尬的是昨天以为的少了一大堆内容，结果其实是放到了第四部分。这划分的方式确实少见，以至于昨天花了一个多小时学习，今天看来重复了一大截。不过没关系，跟着进度来，还是按着这个原来的节奏重复将这段熟读清楚。
