I do not remember when I first realized that I was different from other people; but I knew it before my teacher came to me. I had noticed that my mother and my friends did not use signs as I did when they wanted anything done, but talked with their mouths. Sometimes I stood between two persons who were conversing and touched their lips. I could not understand, and was vexed. I moved my lips and gesticulated frantically without result. This made me so angry at times that I kicked and screamed until I was exhausted.

Aku tidak ingat kapan untuk pertama kalinya menyadari bahwa aku berbeda dari yang lain, namun aku tahu mengenai perbedaan ini sebelum guru mendatangiku. Aku menyadari bahwa ibu dan teman-temanku tidak menggunakan isyarat seperti yang aku gunakan ketika mereka menginginkan sesuatu, melainkan berbicara dengan mulut mereka. Terkadang aku berdiri antara dua orang yang sedang berbincang dan menyentuh bibir mereka. Aku tidak dapat memahami hal ini, dan merasa kesal. Aku mencoba untuk menggerakkan bibir dan berusaha berisyarat dengan kalut namun tanpa hasil. Ini membuatku sangat marah, sehingga aku berontak dan berteriak sampai kelelahan. |

燕南天想也不想，鐵掌掃出，“砰、砰”兩響，套馬的車軛立斷，負傷的馬，筆直竄了出去，燕南天跟著又是一拳擊出，又是”砰”的一響，車廂生生被擊破個大洞，健馬長嘶未絕，他左手儿自洞中送到車廂里去，又是數十點寒光，已暴雨般射向他身上！他身子也已沖天而起，又听“哧、哧、哧”，風聲不絕數十點暗器，俱都自他足底掃過。 | Translation - Indonesian
Tanpa berpikir, Yan Nantian memukul kekang kuda dengan telapak besinya, hingga berdentum keras dua kali. Kekang kuda langsung patah, sedangkan kuda yang terluka segera kabur. Kembali dia memukulkan telapaknya sekali. Kereta kuda langsung berlubang besar. Sebelum ringkikan kuda berhenti, tangan kirinya menjulur masuk ke dalam kereta. Tiba-tiba terlihat sepuluh buah sinar yang mengarah ke badannya bagaikan hujan badai. Dia langsung melompat ke udara. Kembali terdengar sepuluh suara senjata rahasia yang dilemparkan terus menerus ke arahnya. |

"Gita, dari kakak lelakimu, Bapak dan Ibu sudah mendapat tiga cucu. Dari adikmu, dua cucu. Sekarang yang terakhir, adik bungsumu pun telah memberi kami cucu baru." Begitu tadi kata Ibu melalui telepon yang baru kuletakkan. "Jadi tinggal darimu saja kami belum mendapat cucu lho, Gita. Terus terang saja, Ibu heran melihat sikap kalian berdua. Kok bisa-bisanya begitu tenang membiarkan begitu saja kehidupan perkawinan yang sudah berjalan hampir tujuh tahun tidak diwarnai tangis anak!" | Translation - English
"Gita, from your elder brother, your father and I have got three grandchildren. From your younger brother, two grandchildren. And now, even your little sister has given us another grandchild," that was what Mother said earlier in the phone that I had just put down. "So now, you are the only one that has not given us any grandchild, Gita. Frankly speaking, I wonder about both your attitude. How can you stay so calm while living an almost seven years marriage without any child's cry!" |

四個人邊說邊走。郭芙忽然指著西首，說道：“瞧，我媽又傳棒法去啦。”楊過轉過頭來，只見黃蓉和一個年老乞丐正向山坳中并肩走去，兩人手中都提著一根棒。武修文道：“魯長老也真夠笨的了，這打狗棒法學了這么久，是沒學會。”楊過听到“打狗棒法”四字，心中一凜，卻絲毫不動聲色，轉過頭來望著別處，假裝觀賞風景。 | Translation - English
The four persons kept walking while conversing. Guo Fu pointed suddenly to the west and said, "Look, Mother has gone teaching the club skill again." Yang Guo turned around and found that Huang Rong has gone to the hill together with an old beggar. Both of them held a club each. Wu Xiuwen said, "Elder Lu really is stupid, he's learned the Dog Slayer Skill for so long and still can't do it well." Hearing the words "Dog Slayer Skill", Yang Guo felt a shiver, but kept his expression unchanged. He turned to the other side, as if enjoying the views around. |

「琪兒,妳大哥他給了妳父親與我三個孫子。妳弟弟又給了兩個孫子。現在連妳小妹都給了我們一個孫子，」這真是媽在我剛掛的電話中說的。「現在只有妳還沒有給我們孫子了,琪兒。說實在的，我正奇怪妳們兩個的態度，怎麼可以那麼安心的讓一個將近七年的婚姻生活完全沒有小孩哭泣的樂氣！」 |

Her billfold, which had contained $50 and some change when she had left her apartment, contained only $37.42 now. She had walked to the lab, bought nothing after she got there. Had she paid the missing cash to travel to this place? She had waited at the elevator; then she was here. That was all she could remember. | Translation - Chinese
離開公寓時，她錢包裡應該還有50美元,以及些許零錢，可現在只剩37.42美元。她是走路到實驗室的,到達了也沒買任何和東西。她是不是用那筆不見的錢來到這裡了？她只記得,她正在等著電梯，然後她就在這個地方了。 |
