题目：詹姆斯桑希尔被邀请(或要求)在墙壁上画画
Once James Thornhill, a famous English painter, was asked to paint some pictures on the walls of the king's palace in English.
英国著名画家詹姆斯桑希尔曾经被要求画一些图片在英国国王宫殿的墙壁上。
Then workers were sent for and a big platform(平台) was made.With the help of a worker, Thornhill started painting on the platform. They worked for a whole year and at last the pictures were ready.
然后，工人被送去那工作并建成了一个大平台。在工人的帮助下，桑希尔开始在平台上画画。他们用整整一年的时间画好了图画。
Thornhill was happy when he looked at the pictures, for they were really beautiful.He looked at them for a long time, and then took one step back and looked again. Now the pictures were even more beautiful. He took another step, then another.
桑希尔看着这些图片很高兴，因为它们真的很漂亮。他望着它们很长一段时间，然后后退一步继续看，感觉图片更加漂亮了，他继续一步一步的向后退。
Finally he was at the very edge(边缘) of the platform, but he did not know it because he was thinking of his pictures.
最后，他退到了平台的最边缘，但他并不知道，因为他只想着他的画。
The worker saw everything. "What should I do?" he thought. "Thornhill is at the very edge of the platform. If I cry out, he will take another step, fall
off it and surely be killed." So the worker quickly took some paint(颜料) and threw it at the picture.
工人看到了一切。 “我该怎么办？”他想。 “桑希尔站在了平台的最边缘。如果我喊他，他将会再退一步，掉下去身亡。所以工人迅速取了一些涂料涂在图片上。
"What are you doing?" cried the painter, running quickly forward to his pictures.
“你在干什么？”画家喊道，并快速的走向他的画。

作文地带解析：这里面 be asked to do sth... 有被要求、邀请两种表达方式，但是这得看大家的阅读方式了，如果觉得是zf所迫，那就是被要求，如果是自愿而去，那还是邀请比较合适，各人有不同的想法，这里小Joozone 就不多作嗷述了。

栩栩如生的画作！
