今天我们学了《乌塔》这篇课文，这篇课文主要讲了这样的事：“我”到罗马去旅游，在旅店里遇到了乌塔。当“我”得知乌塔是一个人外出时，感到很惊讶，从中感到中国的孩子太娇惯，没有独立能力，而外国的孩子独立能力很强
Toda()y, we learned the text "UTA". This text mainly talks about the following things: "I" went to Rome to travel and met UTA in the hotel. When "I" learned that UTA was going out alone, I was very surprised. From this, I felt that Chinese children were too pampered and had no independent ability, while foreign children were very independent
读完后，我掩卷沉思：我们写文章太多都写赞扬中国的，而这篇文章却铿锵有力地打破了这层金光闪闪的薄皮，把我们的缺点赤条条地摆在我们的面前，让我们真正认识到我们中国人的缺点。
After reading it, I thought: we write too many articles to praise China, but this article is sonorous and powerful to break this layer of glittering thin skin, put our shortcomings in front of us, let us really recognize the shortcomings of our Chinese people.
这篇文章的观念很正确，我们中国人的确有娇惯孩子这一大毛病，而外国人在这一点上就比我们聪明多了。中国人想办法怎样让自己的孩子长大后有人照顾，外国人却想办法怎样让孩子从小学习照顾自己，以便长大后自己照顾自己。
The idea of this article is very correct. We Chinese do have the big problem of pampering children, and foreigners are much smarter than us at this point. Chinese people think about how to make their children be taken care of when they grow up, while foreigners think about how to make their children learn to take care of themselves when they grow up, so that they can take care of themselves when they grow up.
本文作者不仅写出了外国孩子自立能力比中国孩子强，而且还暗写出了乌塔的意志非常坚强，因为乌塔为了这次旅行准备了三年，并且每个周末到超级市场或别的地方去发广告单，甚至给别人看小孩。这些活都很累，让乌塔这么一个十四岁的小女孩来干更是难上加难、累上加累。可乌塔坚持下来了，这充分说明乌塔的意志是多么坚强！我想：如果中国的孩子都像乌塔这样那该有多好啊！
The author not only wrote that foreign children are better at self-reliance than Chinese children, but also secretly wrote that UTA"s will is very strong, because UTA prepared for the trip for three years, and went to supermarkets or other places every weekend to send advertisements, or even to show other people children. These jobs are very tired. It"s more difficult and tiring for a 14-year-old girl like UTA to do them. But UTA persisted, which fully shows how strong UTA"s will is! I think: if Chinese children are like UTA, how nice it would be!
