please read the story carefully,then translate red sentences and tell me what are you thinking about when you read the whole story~Don't be shy,just make your imagination fly in your sky!

           
               There once was a king who offered a prize to the artist who would paint the best picture of peace. Many artists tried. The king looked at all the pictures. But there were only two be really liked, and he had to choose between them. One picture was of a calm lake. The lake was a perfect mirror for peaceful towering mountains all around it.      Overhead was a blue sky with fluffy white clouds. All who saw this picture thought that it was a perfect picture of peace.
               The other picture had mountains, too. But these were rugged and bare. Above was an angry sky, from which rain fell and in which lightning played. Down the side of the mountain tumbled a foaming waterfall. This did not look peaceful at all.
               But when the king looked closely, he saw behind the waterfall a tiny bush growing in a crack in the rock. In the bush a mother bird had built her nest. There, in the midst of the bush of angry water, sat the mother bird on her nest----in perfect peace.
             Which picture do you think won the prize? The king chose the second picture. Do you know why?
            “Because,” explained the king, “peace does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble, or hard work. Peace means to be in the midst of all those things and still be calm in your heart. That is the real meaning of peace.”
            从前有一个国王，悬赏能画出最好的宁静画的画家。很多画家都进行了尝试。国王看了所有的作品，但只有两幅，他真正喜欢，他必须从中选择。一幅画中是一片宁静的湖，四周群山环绕，湖泊就是一面完美的镜子。蓝天之上白云飘飘，每个看到这幅画的人都认为这真是一幅完美的宁静画。
           另一幅画也有山脉。但这些山脉崎岖不平，光秃秃的。

这看起来一点都不宁静。
           但国王仔细看时，却看到瀑布后面在岩石的裂缝中长着一个小小的灌木丛。灌木丛中，一只母鸟极其安静的卧在巢上。
           你认为哪幅画能赢得悬赏？国王选择了第二幅。你知道为什么吗？
           国王解释说：“这是因为宁静并不是指这个地方没有噪音，烦恼和辛劳。

Above was an angry sky, from which rain fell and in which lightning played. Down the side of the mountain tumbled a foaming waterfall. This did not look peaceful at all.
大山之上是怒吼的天空，大雨滂沱，雷电肆虐。一到瀑布从山上一泻而下，激起无数泡沫。这幅画看起来丝毫没有一点宁静。
Peace means to be in the midst of all those things and still be calm in your heart.
所谓的宁静就是身处喧嚷乱世之中还能保持内心的平静。

It made me think of the poem----结庐在人境，而无车马喧，问君何能尔，心远地自偏。
faced with the ups and downs in life , we should learn to keep calm all the days.
not pleased by the external gains and not be saddened by personal loses, we will live a simple but  happy life. I admire those detached people and I want to be one of them.

山上的天空中乌云密布，大雨滂沱，雷电交加。一条瀑布从山上倾泻而下激起泡沫一样的水雾
宁静就是即使你身处喧嚣的尘世中也能保持心灵的宁静
俗话说大隐隐于市大概就是这个道理

1.在这上面的是闪电，下着雨的坏天气。下面在山的一边是落花的瀑布。
2.宁静的真谛是处于这些事之中内心还可以保持平静。
the king's explanation is so great.

宁静并不是指这个地方没有噪音，烦恼和辛劳
It's a supreme state.

山上的天是灰蒙蒙的，电闪雷鸣，还下着雨。在山下有一瀑布，落下来的水渐起了好多水泡。
