其次，对于年轻人来说，租住在养老院里服务老人，不仅做了有意义的志愿活动，而且象征性的三百元房租大大节省了生活成本，这也调动了他们志愿服务老人的积极性，从而形成一种可持续的志愿行为。

Secondly, through meaningful volunteer work, young people can rent a room in a nursing home at a symbolic cost of 300 yuan rent which has greatly reduced their cost of living. This becomes a motivation for them thereby creating a sustainable voluntary behavior.

如果一行诗句可以代表一种诗派，我就愿举这行诗为象征诗派艺术的代表。每次念及，我不禁想起法国现代画家昂利·卢梭（Henri Rousseau）的杰作“沉睡的吉普赛人”。

rúguǒ yìháng shījù kěyǐ dàibiǎo yīzhǒng shī pài ，wǒ jiù yuàn jǔ zhè xíng shī wèi xiàngzhēng shī pài yìshù de dàibiǎo 。měicì niànjí ，wǒ bùjīn xiǎng qǐ Fǎguó xiàndài huàjiā Ánglì ·Lú Suō （Henri Rousseau ）de jiézuò “chénshuì de Jípǔsàirén ”。

If one line of poetry can represent a poetic movement, I would nominate this line to represent Symbolism. Each time I recite this line, I can't help but think of 'The Sleeping Gypsy', a masterpiece by contemporary French artist Henri Rousseau.

我说这行诗是象征诗派的代表，因为它具体而又微妙地表现出许多哲学家所无法说清的话；它表现出人性里两种相对的本质，但同时更表现出那两种相对的本质的调和。

wǒ shuō zhè xíng shī shì xiàngzhēng shī pài de dàibiǎo ，yīnwèi tā jùtǐ ér yòu wēimiào de biǎoxiàn chū xǔduō zhéxué jiā suǒ wúfǎ shuōqīng dehuà ；tā biǎoxiàn chū rénxìng lǐ liǎng zhǒng xiāngduì de běnzhì ，dàn tóngshí gèng biǎoxiàn chū nà liǎng zhǒng xiāngduì de běnzhì de tiáohé 。

The reason I say this line of poetry is representative of Symbolism, is because in a concrete but subtle way, it shows that which many philosophers have been unable to explain clearly; It shows the essences of the two opposing forms of humanity, but, at the same time, it shows the harmony between the essences of these two opposing forms.

只有原诗才算恰到好处，因为猛虎象征人性的一方面，蔷薇象征人性的另一面，而“细嗅”刚刚象征着两者的关系，两者的调和与统一。

It's only the original poem that really gets it just right, because the fierce tiger symbolizes one aspect of humanity, the rose represents the other, and the act of sniffing represents the link between these two, the harmony between them and their unity.
