There is no news about Auschwitz.

1. "No News in Auschwitz" is an excellent news work that won the Pulitzer Prize in the United States and is known as "an immortal masterpiece in American news writing."

2. Original text of the work.

In a sense, the scariest thing about Brzezinka is that it is sunny and warm, with rows of poplar trees dancing, and there are children on the grass near the gate. Chase game.

This is really like a nightmare, everything is horribly turned upside down. In Brzezinka, there shouldn't be sunshine, there shouldn't be light, there shouldn't be green grass, there shouldn't be the laughter of children. Brzezinka should be a place where the sun never shines and the flowers always wither, because it was once a hell on earth.

Every day people from all over the world come to Brzezinka - perhaps the most terrifying tourist center in the world. People come for different reasons - some to see with their own eyes whether things are as terrible as they say, some to prevent themselves from forgetting the past, and some to pay tribute to the victims by visiting the places where they were tortured.

Brzezinka is a few miles outside the southern Polish city of O?wi?cim - a place more familiar to the world. Auschwitz, with approximately 12,000 residents, is located 120 miles from Warsaw at the eastern end of a mountain pass known as the Moravian Gate and is surrounded by marshland. Brzezinka, along with Auschwitz, formed part of the killing factory known to the Nazis as Auschwitz.

Fourteen years ago, the last batch of prisoners were stripped naked and escorted into the gas chambers by military dogs and armed soldiers. Since then, the horrors of Auschwitz have been told many times. Some of the memoirs written by survivors describe conditions that no sane person could imagine. The commander of the Auschwitz concentration camp, Rodolf Franz Fernand Hoss, also wrote a memoir before his execution, detailing the mass killings and various experiments on human bodies carried out here. The Poles say that 4 million people died there.

Today, there is no news to report on Auschwitz. Journalists only have a sense of mission that they must write about, and this sense of mission comes from an uneasy feeling: after visiting here, if you leave without saying or writing anything, you will be sorry for the people who died here.

Now, Brzezinka and Auschwitz are very quiet places, and people can no longer hear the screams of the victims. The visitor walked silently, taking a quick glance at first; then slowing down as his imagination associated the human beings with cells, gas chambers, crypts, and flogging posts. The tour guides don’t need to say much, they just point with their fingers and it’s enough.

Every visitor feels that there is a place that is particularly terrifying to him and that he will never forget. To some, this place is a restored gas chamber of Auschwitz. People said to them that this was the "little one" and that there was a greater one. For others, it was the fact that they would never forget the fact that daisies were blooming on the ruins of the Brzezinka gas chamber and crematorium, which had been blown up by the Germans during their retreat.

There are also some visitors looking at the beginning of the gas chamber and crematorium, their expressions are blank because they don't know what they are for. However, as soon as they saw the piles of hair and baby's shoes in the glass window, as well as the cells used to hold the death row prisoners who were sentenced to death, they stopped involuntarily and trembled all over.

A visitor was so frightened that he opened his mouth wide. He wanted to scream, but he couldn't. It turned out that he saw some boxes in the women's cell. These three-story long boxes are 6 feet wide and 3 feet high. In such a large area, five to ten people must be crammed into them to sleep every night. The narrator scurries away from here because there is nothing worth seeing here.

Visitors came to a gray brick building where infertility experiments were conducted on women. The narrator tried pushing the door - it was locked. The visitor was thankful that he had not opened the door and gone in, otherwise he would have blushed with embarrassment.

Now the visitor comes to a long corridor. From the walls on either side of the gallery, rows of people watch the visitors. These are thousands of photos, of prisoners. They were all dead - the men and women who faced the cameras knowing that death awaited them.

Their expressions were dull. But, in the middle of a row of photos, there was one that stood out and was thought-provoking. This is a girl in her twenties, plump, cute, with fair skin, blond hair and blue eyes. She was smiling gently, as if smiling at a beautiful and secret dream. What was she thinking at that time? What is she thinking about now on this memorial wall to the victims of Auschwitz?

Visitors are taken to the basement where hangings were carried out to have a look. At this time, they feel that they are also being suffocated. Another visitor came in, knelt down and crossed herself. There was no place to pray in Auschwitz.

The visitors looked at each other pleadingly and then said to the narrator: "That's enough."

There was nothing new to report in Auschwitz. The weather here is sunny, the trees are shady, and there are children playing and playing in front of the door.
