Spain is famous for its tomato festival, called La Tomatina. It happens in a small town Hanoi on the last Wednesday of August every year. During the festival there are all kinds of activities, but the most exciting part is the tomato fight. It takes place at the end of long celebration(慶祝). You are encouraged to throw tomatoes in the fight. There’re many stories about how the festival began. One of the stories goes that during the 1940s, some friends started a tomato fight, while another story is about a local band. Anyway, everyone in Bunol seems to have a different story.

Before the tomato fight, there are parades(游行), musical bands, street parties and so on. On the day of the fight, shopkeepers cover their windows and doors in order to keep away from the tomato fight. At the same time, thousands of tourists and local people come to the town square together. Then large trucks(卡車(chē)) full of tomatoes arrive. From the back of the large trucks, a great town band start to throw tomatoes at others. Then the crowds fight back, throwing the tomatoes at anything and anyone. Soon the streets are in the sea of red tomato juice.

Everyone is supposed to obey a small number of rules: You must squash(壓爛) the tomato before throwing it and you are allowed to throw nothing but tomatoes.

It is usually over in less than half an hour. Everyone then sets off to the river to clear up. Sounds like fun!

【題目】

We have four chickens: Pecky, Buckbeak, Mayonnaise and Cornflake. My husband, Andrew, made their coop(籠子). It’s beautifully made.

What’s more interesting is that he made it with our sons and daughter. They spent several weekends in the garage(車(chē)庫(kù)). He gave them tools because he believed it was important that they could actually make something. He slowly helped them and together, they made the coop. They also made the mistakes of learning — a board cut too short, nails smashed(打碎) by hammers — but in the end, Andrew did some tricks and the coop looked perfect.

The chickens love their perfectly imperfect home and we like to give them free range(放養(yǎng)) of the yard. Yesterday, they ran around the lawn(草坪). We needed to go downtown, knowing that chickens wouldn’t go very far. When we got back, my son, Gordon, ran to check on them. There were Mayonnaise, Cornflake and Buckbeak, looking a mess. Pecky was nowhere to be seen.

With Andrew, we searched the yard and found feathers by the trees. More feathers littered the yard. By this time, Gordon started to worry; Pecky was his favorite chicken and his eyes got watery.

Andrew picked Gordon up and held him. As we stood there, accepting that we were now a three-chicken family, we heard it — a soft clucking(咯咯聲) sound. Andrew put Gordon down and they looked under a bush. There was Pecky, a half-naked chicken. She looked weird(怪異的), but she was fine. Andrew gently gathered her up and returned her to the coop.

The next day Andrew had the kids back in the garage. They planned to fence(把……圍起來(lái)) a bigger area for maximum(最大化) chicken freedom and safety. The kids believed that the chickens should be closed in, safe from everything that likes to eat chickens. Andrew disagreed. He believed that we should be more careful, letting the chickens out when we were in the yard. He encourages our kids to take risks. He sees that the risk of living life — by having the freedom to walk slowly around and dig for small insects in the garden — is better than the safety of a prison(監(jiān)牢).

Andrew and the kids are planning their next building project. I’m sure it will include the wisdom of a father who knows how to love through the act of giving freedom.
