他可以在视力范围的外围看到那座高大的黄色建筑。但是，这让他感到奇怪。微光，一种不稳定的人，好像建筑物向前逐渐逐渐变为稳定性，然后退缩为不确定性。一个振荡，每个阶段持续几秒钟，然后模糊到相反，相当规律的变异性，就好像有机脉动底层结构一样。他想，好像还活着。
(He could see the tall, peeling yellow building at the periphery of his range of vision. But something about it struck him as strange. A shimmer, an unsteadiness, as if the building faded forward into stability and then retreated into insubstantial uncertainty. An oscillation, each phase lasting a few seconds and then blurring off into its opposite, a fairly regular variability as if an organic pulsation underlay the structure. As if, he thought, it's alive.)
