铁西广场上的吊钩

春日午后,车过沈阳铁西广场,我看到车窗外巨大的吊钩一闪而过。在辽宁,人们对顶天立地的钢铁塑像再熟悉不过,司空见惯,一如当年熟悉的工友,或者工厂里的感觉。可新冠肺炎疫情暴发后,从2019年的寒冬腊月到2020年的春风解冻,人们都宅在家里,公路上三三两两的车辆,市区里十分清净。终于,疫情在强有力的控制下逐渐减弱,人们从房屋里走出来。

In a spring afternoon,the image of the giant lifing hook flashed away while I drove past the Tiexi Square in Shenyang city.People in Liaoning are no strangers to iron and steel sculptures.Since the outbreak of COVID-19,people have been staying at home and it has never been this quiet in urban areas.Eventually,people startto come out as the epidemic wanes,thanks to the effective prevention and control efforts.I was flled with strength as I saw the sculpture of the lifting hook bathed in sunlight in Tiexi Square in this long-awaited spring.
