Please read the story carefully,then translate the 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!
   
   A swallow, returning from abroad and especially fond of dwelling with men, built herself a nest in the wall of a Court of Justice and there hatched seven young birds.
   A snake gliding past the nest from its hole in the wall ate up the young unfledged nestlings.
   The swallow, finding her nest empty, lamented greatly and exclaimed:" Woe to me a stranger that in this place where all others rights are protected, I alone should suffer wrong."

   It is better to fight for justice than to rail at the ill.            —— Alfred Tennyson

Only ourselves can change our life, maybe we won't get what we anticipate,but we can also live happyily.
