（高级英语-作文）Reflections on " Hiroshima --the ' Liveliest City' in Japan "

The article provides a harrowingly detailed narrative of the horrors experienced from civilians. What war really brings to those civilians who went through atomic bombardment are not only wounds and burns but also some invisible pains in their heart. Because of this, life seems more valuable than anything else in the world.

Some disorganized reveries rushed to my mind at the prospect of the scene that thousands upon thousands of people had been slain in one second, and that thousands upon thousands of others had lingered on to die in slow agony. Wars have not been stopping since the appearance of human beings. What I can't help thinking is the meaning of the war. War is accompanied by death injury and pain to both sides. Nothing is more unacceptable than the lost lives. Just as is said by the old man in the passage -- Hiroshima, some people who survived after war radically wanted to get rid of the traces of the bomb. War brings them too much. In addition, something that seems self-evident for them has become historic things for us.

Unfortunately, even today, in some areas across the world, war is still going on, causing many deaths every day, which means many families are broken every now and then. How we wish there would be no war anymore!

I am not too qualified to condemn or condone, but the influence the war had is exactly in collective memory. What we do, what we can do and what we should do is not to hail the peace as a triumph but to cherish it.
