I wove my webs for you because I liked you. After all, whats a life, anyway? We are born, we live a little while, we die. A spiders life cant help being something of a mess, with all this trapping and eating flies. By helping you, perhaps l was trying to lift up my life a trifle.

我为你结网，因为我喜欢你再说，生命到底是什么啊？我们出生，我们活上一阵子，我们死去一只蜘蛛，一生忙着捕捉和吃苍蝇是毫无意义的，通过帮助你，也许可以提升一点我生命的价值谁都知道人活着该做一点有意义的事情17This is a valuable book. I think in an ideal world, should have only two people, one kind is the one who has read charlottes web, another kind is the one who is going to read charlottes web. Sometimes, when we wake up at night and touch our chest with the heart still beating, we will be very happy, because live means we can read charlottes web again, and read charlottes web means that he is still alive. 这实在是一本宝书。

我觉得在一个理想的世界里，应该只有两种人存在，一种是读过夏洛的网的人，另一种是将要读夏洛的网的人有时候，半夜里醒过来，摸摸胸口还在跳，就会很高兴，因为活着就意味着还能再把夏洛的网读一遍，而读夏洛的网就意味着还活着1819。
