2.2.5 The King
The king is the sole inhabitant of asteroid 325,which the Little Prince visits after leaving his own planet.The king insists upon his authority being respected and does not tolerate disobedience; however,since he is a very good man,he makes his orders reasonable.Just before the Prince leaves the king's planet,the latter makes the former an ambassador.
2.2.6 The Snake
Even though the snake the little prince encounters in the desert speaks in riddles,he demands less interpretation than the other symbolic figures in the novel.The snake also has less to learn than many of the other characters.The grown-ups on the various planets are too narrow-minded for their own good,and the prince and the narrator edge closer to enlightenment,but the serpent does not require answers or even ask questions.In fact,the snake is so confident he has mastered life’s mysteries that he tells the prince he speaks only in riddles because he can solve all riddles.In a story about mysteries,the snake is the only absolute.His poisonous bite and biblical allusion indicate that he represents the unavoidable phenomenon of death.
I wanted to mention that relates to the latter conclusion is the extreme importance of preserving true friendship in our lives,which is quickly fading.Being a friend will give an unfallible uniqueness and undying quality to life that nothing else can imitate.During a conversation with a fox,the little prince learns that "'Men have no more time to understand anything.They buy things all ready made at the shops.But there is no shop anywhere where one can buy friendship,and so men have no friends anymore...'" As I look around my high school environment,it is as if the most dramatic change has occured.Beauty,wealth,and social status has so vastly superseded the original qualities people once looked for in a friend,such as trust and compassion,that I cannot stress the importance of this theme enough.When the little prince encountered the many thousands of roses,contradictory to what his single beloved rose told him on his planet,he did not give up that love for his rose,even though there were so many that looked like her.He simply told them about his fox friend:"'...He was only a fox like a hundred thousand other foxes.But I have made him my friend,and now he is unique in all the world.' And the roses were very much embarassed.'You are beautiful,but you are empty,' he went on.'One could not die for you...but in herself alone [his rose] she is more important than all the hundreds of you other roses...'" Like a field of beautiful women the little prince could easily have given in to,the little prince much preferred his one rose to all the hundreds of them.This kind of friendship and love is so rare to find,because as said earlier,"'...there is no shop anywhere where one can buy friendship...'" and is one of the few things people have left yet to survive on.

2.2.5 The King
The king is the only one living on asteroid 325, which the Little Prince visits after leaving his own planet. The king insists that people should respect his authority and should not disobey him. However, since he is a very good man, his orders are resonable. He makes the Prince an ambassador before he leaves.
2.2.6 The Snake
Although the snake the little prince encounters in the dessert speaks in riddles, he is actually easier to interpret than the other symbolic characters in the novel. Also, the snake does not have as much to learn as the other characters.
The grown-ups on the various planets are too narrow-minded for their own good; the prince and the narrator can only approach enlightenment very slowly, but the serpent is so confident that he no longer needs answers, or even bothers to ask any questions.(注:The grown-ups on the various planets are too narrow-minded for their own good, and the prince and the narrator edge closer to enlightenment, but the serpent does not require answers or even ask questions.这句话我的理解是:其他成年角色思想太狭隘,也就是不尝试去受到启蒙,对他们自己也不好,旁述和小王子也只能很缓慢地向启蒙靠拢,但是蛇自信到认为自己已经完全启蒙,不需任何答案,甚至都不问问题了)In fact, the snake's confidence leads him to believe that he has mastered life's mysteries. He tells the prince the reason he speaks in riddles is because he knows the answers to all riddles. In a story full of mysteries, the snake is made the only absolute figure that does not raise questions. His poisonous bite and reference to the Bible imply that he represents an inevitable phenomenon -- death.
I would like to point out that the latter conclusion explains the extreme importance of true friendship in our lives, which is disappearing quickly nowadays. Engaging in a true friendship makes life unique and unfailingly good like nothing else. In his conversation with the fox, the little prince learns that "Men have no more time to understand anything. They buy things already made at the shops. But there is no shop anywhere where one can buy friendship, and so men have no friends anymore...'" This is what I observed in my high school. The change is so dramatic: beauty, wealth and social status have replaced so much of what we originally look for in a friendship, such as trust and compassion, that I cannot emphasize this theme enough. When the little prince encounters (之前都在用present tense,这里也用好了)the many thousands of roses, unlike what his solely beloved rose has predicted, he does not abandon his love for her, even though all the other roses look like her. Instead, he just tells them about his fox friend, "'...He was only a fox like a hundred thousand other foxes. But I have made him my friend, and now he is unique in all the world.' And the roses were very much embarassed. 'You are beautiful, but you are empty,' he went on. 'One could not die for you...but in herself alone [his rose] she is more important than all the hundreds of you other roses...'" The field of roses represents all the beautiful women the little prince could have been easily seduced by. Yet, the little prince still prefers his rose to all the hundreds of them. This kind of friendship and love is extremely rare, because as mentioned earlier, "'...there is no shop anywhere where one can buy friendship...'" and is one of the few things people have left yet to live on.
原段落:
I wanted to mention that relates (注:应为 relating/related, that在这里是连着后面整个clause的,并不代表主语) to the latter conclusion is the extreme importance of preserving true friendship in our lives, which is quickly fading. Being a friend will give an unfallible(注:应为infallible,通常是形容某事物的对错) uniqueness and undying quality to life that nothing else can imitate.
