【Aiden in English】

        Now since schools are out, it's time to relax. When you think of relaxing, you think of a beach, and what beach is better than Ocean City, MD in relaxing. It was exactly why Dad and I were going on a 3-day trip to the east coast of Maryland.

        My first impression of the beach: didn't live up to its reputation. The sand wasn't smooth. As you walked into the water, sharp shells sliced up you're barefoot. The thing seemed as if they were everywhere, and the currents and waves carried the shells, making them deadly projectiles.

        Another problem of the ocean had deep holes and bumpy trenches. One second the water was up to my waist, next, I was treading in the silts. Here the Atlantic Ocean was littered with craters and I was really wary of them.

        Worst of all, ants lived in the sand. Yes, I meant ants. Once a gigantic wave washed out onto land, it drowned thousands upon thousands of ants. Their lifeless bodies covered the beach. But I soon discovered that the bodies of ants were in the water, which grossed me out. After seeing that, we left without a peep.

        Sometimes you can't always trust people on comments.

【红霞译文】

        暑期可谓休闲度假的大好时节，而一提到休闲度假，人们马上就会联想起沙滩海浪，身在美东没有哪一个海边能赶得上马里兰(意译“心爱之地”)州大洋城叫人称心如意，这正是我和爸爸未来三天假日要去的地方。

        海滩的第一印象就是徒有虚名，沙滩并非平滑柔和，当赤足走入海岸时，你定会发觉，破碎尖利的贝壳散落各处，随着潮起浪落个个像枚致命炮弹，令你难以招架。

        另一个问题在于海底窟窿凹陷沟壑纵横，刚淌过齐腰深湍急水流，又要脚踏淤泥浅滩，置身高低不平的大西洋之中，我一直心有余悸。

        最糟糕的还有蚂蚁无处不在，没错我说得就是蚂蚁，每当大浪拍击海岸，成千上万只蚂蚁死无葬身之地，尸横遍野，“血”染海面，恶心得要命，见此情形我们二话不说赶紧溜之大吉。

        有时候，人们对大众评论姑且不可偏听偏信。
