濁水溪是彰化人記憶中無法抹去的一條溪河 , 猶如母
親般呵護著這方水土。她的沙成就了台灣島嶼最大的
沖積扇平原 , 孕育出台灣的糧倉 , 堆積了最大的外海沙

The wind blown the Zhuoshui River is sometimes


spiritual, sometimes unrestrained, and sometimes
lamenting.

The river
The Zhuoshui River is an inerasable memory for
all the inhabitants of Changhua. It protects the
land and fertilizes it with fluvial sediments, making
it the largest alluvial fan and making the biggest
offshore shoal, the Waisandingzou sandbar. The
soil of the plain is so fertile that people can grow

on the coastal mud bank, and farm the oysters
on the Waisandingzou sandbar; that's why it's
considered the granary of Taiwan. Like a mother
nursing her baby, the Zhuoshui River nourishes the
people living on the river basin, an area of 3157
square kilometers.

Kind as the Zhuoshui River is, kids are warned not


to approach her. My mother kept admonishing me
against playing by the river, and my father always
added, "If you dare to go there, I'll hang you up
and punish you!" This river is thus a current full of
grownups' threat. It became more mysterious when
we went back to school after long summer vacation
