The experience I am going to tell you about is that I waited at the summit of a mountain on the edge of my city to appreciate the sunrise.It was on the 6th of October during the last national holiday.After playing video games for five days in a row,I was fed up with this form of entertainment,and desperately wanted to do something more interesting.

我要告诉你的经历是我在城市边缘的山顶等待欣赏日出。那是去年国庆期间10月6日的时候。在连续玩了5天游戏之后，我厌倦了这种娱乐方式，迫切想要做些更有意思的事情。

Before I went to bed,it suddenly occurred to me that why not go to the nearby mountain to watch a sunrise?It seemed that the last time I did this was in primary school when my teacher asked us to write an essay describing the process.So it must be a special experience to see if the view had changed over all these years.

就在我睡觉之前，我突然想到为什么不去附近的山上看日出呢？好像上次这么做还是小学的时候，当时老师要求我们写一篇描述日出的作文。所以看看其景象在这些年里是否发生了改变一定是段很特殊的体验。

Only at the mountain could I get rid of the air pollution and the numerous high-rise buildings that would block my eyesight and prevent me from enjoying the incredible view.So although the sunrise happened at around 6 o’clock,I had to get up far earlier to cover the time consumed on the road and the climbing.After careful calculation,I decided to set out at 3 am.

只有在山上我才能摆脱会遮挡视线，阻碍欣赏美景的空气污染和无数的高楼。所以虽然日出是在6点左右，但算上路上和爬山消耗的时间，我得起的特别早。仔细计算之后，我决定3点出发。

I arrived at the summit at a quarter past 5,and several people were already waiting there.They seemed much more experienced than me,having brought heavy coats to shield the cold,whereas the only thing I could do was to keep moving to warm myself.40 minutes later,the sunrise began,dyeing the clouds and the mist first gold and then bright red.It was the most extraordinary scenery I had ever seen in the last decade.All the waiting and the cold I had endured were totally worth it,and I felt lucky I had made the decision.

我在5点15的时候到达山顶，那里已经有几个人在等着了。他们似乎比我要有经验很多，带着厚厚的大衣来抵御寒冷。而我只能不停移动来保持温暖。40分钟之后，日出开始了。它先将云朵和雾气染成金色，然后是亮红色。这是我在近10年看过的最壮观的景象。我忍受的所有等待和寒冷都很值得，觉得自己很幸运做了该决定。
