Suddenly there came a great Water Rat, which lived under the drain.
"Have you a passport?" said the Rat. "Give me your passport."
But the Tin Soldier kept silence, and held his musket tighter than ever. The boat went on, but the Rat came after it. Hu! how he gnashed his teeth, and called out to the bits of straw and wood.
"Hold him! hold him! He'hasn't paid toll--he hasn't shown his passport !''
But the stream became stronger and stronger. The Tin Soldier could see the bright daylight where the arch ended; but he heard a roaring noise, which might well frighten a bolder man. Only think--just where the tunnel ended, the drain ran into a great canal; and for him that would have been as dangerous as for us to be carried down a great waterfall.
Now he was already so near it that he could not stop. The boat was carried out, the poor Tin Soldier stiffening himself as much as he could, and no one could say that he moved an eyelid. The boat whirled round three or four times, and was full of water to the very edge--it must
sink. The Tin Soldier stood up to his neck in water, and the boat sank deeper and deeper, and the paper was loosened more and more; and now the water closed over the soldier's head. Then he thought of the pretty little Dancer, and how he should never see Her again; and it sounded in the Soldier's ears:
"Farewell, farewell, thou warrior brave,
For this day thou must die!"
And now the paper parted, and the Tin Soldier fell out; but at that moment he was snapped up by a great fish.
Oh, how dark it was in that fish's body! It was darker yet than in the drain tunnel; and then it was very narrow too. But the Tin Soldier remained unmoved, and lay at full length shouldering his musket.
The fish swam to and fro; he made the most wonderful movements, and then became quite still. At last something flashed through him like lightning. The daylight shone quite clear, and a voice said aloud, "The Tin Soldier!" The fish had been caught, carried to market, bought,
and taken into the kitchen, where the cook cut him open with a large knife. She seized the Soldier round the body with both her hands and carried him into the room, where all were anxious to see the remarkable man who had traveled about in the inside of a fish; but the Tin Soldier was not at all proud. They placed him on the table, and there --no! What curious things may happen in the world. The Tin Soldier was in the very room in which he had been before! he saw the same children, and the same toys stood on the table; and there was the pretty castle with the graceful little Dancer. She was still balancing herself on one leg, and
held the other extended in the air. She was hardy too. That moved the Tin Soldier; he was very nearly weeping tin tears, but that would not have been proper. He looked at her, but they said nothing to each other.
Then one of the little boys took the Tin Soldier and flung him into the stove. He gave no reason for doing this. It must have been the fault of the Goblin in the snuff-box.
The Tin Soldier stood there quite illuminated, and felt a heat that was terrible; but whether this heat proceeded from the real fire or from love he did not know. The colors had quite gone off from him; but whether that had happened on the journey, or had been caused by grief, no one could say. He looked at the little lady, she looked at him, and he felt that he was melting; but he still stood firm, shouldering his musket. Then suddenly the door flew open, and the draught of air caught the Dancer, and she flew like a sylph just into the stove to the Tin Soldier, and flashed up in a flame, and she was gone. Then the Tin Soldier melted down into a lump; and when the servant-maid took the ashes out next day, she found him in
the shape of a little tin heart. But of the Dancer nothing remained but the tinsel rose, and that was burned as black as a coal

还记得不久前扑天盖地的防汛预警么？朋友圈转疯的洪水预测？传说中的水位上涨？你以为哈尔滨的八月是这样的？

可现实是这样的，还记得大黄鸭来的时候是这样的


可现在是这样的！

说好的防汛呢？神秘的暴雨呢？水位非但没涨竟然还下降了！古有大禹治水，粉丝们戏谑大黄鸭也能抗洪。事实上，水位下降只是相关部门采取的防汛措施，当然不会只是大黄鸭的功劳。可是，当防汛危机告一段落我们有时还是会感到心塞。

大黄鸭可以努力给人们带来快乐，却不能帮助人们带走这些格格不入的垃圾。当我们埋怨天气的喜怒无常之后，也请低头看一看我们对赖以生存的家园在做着何等的蹂躏。

大黄鸭在此发出倡议请大家在努力重拾快乐的时候不要忘记重拾公德，愿你能与大黄鸭一同守护家园环境

日前，为了应对大黄鸭展出水域水位不断下降，周围船舶屡屡搁浅等情况，大黄鸭活动组与所在码头进行联动，采取了码头移动及电箱转移措施。

活动组在对大黄鸭的日常检视中发现，随着水位下降，大黄鸭浮台已经有部分位置接近搁浅。施工团队与活动方对拖拽方案进行了论证，在确认观赏效果未受过多影响的情况下，为保证安全，决定不对大黄鸭进行移动，维持预定位置。

由于大黄鸭在展示期间需要时刻保持充气状态，风机配电箱的预先是设置在大黄鸭旁的2号码头上。但是水位下降后，码头的位置也势必要进行调整。调整之后大黄鸭风机的配电箱位置就需要移动。大黄鸭充气中断时间不可超过5分钟，鉴于配电箱电压为380V，同时又涉及到了水上作业，转移电箱的同时也要保证大黄鸭展出安全及操作人员安全。经多方沟通后，码头人员协调了一艘小船泊靠在电箱原位置附近租借给活动方。在供电电缆长度范围内，将电箱转移到租用小船上，以保证正常供电。

在码头工作人员、活动方安保人员的配合下，历时3小时，大黄鸭供电设备转移及码头转移完毕，大黄鸭粉丝俱乐部位置也随之进行了转移。

在展期结束前，大黄鸭维护人员会在日常检视过程中随时关注所在水域水位信息，联动采取安全保护措施。也提醒广大粉丝在欣赏大黄鸭过程中配合工作人员引导，切勿跨越护栏或踏入江面，以保证自身安全。

直播的马拉松比赛当中，大黄鸭作为一个标志性的景点出现，央视解说特意提到：这个大黄鸭可没有远处看起来这么小巧，实际上是非常大的一只

再见，大黄鸭
