这一篇短文是记述20世纪40年代在莫高窟敦煌艺术研究所人们的生活状况，当时研究所是国民党政府教育部的直属单位，小小的单位只有不到三十人，似乎是一支快要断线的风筝，孤悬塞外，飘摇不定。以常书鸿先生为首的一批工作人员在这个小天地里艰难度日，终于坚持到解放。在本文中除了述说当时社会混乱一群生活在莫高窟的人们艰难度日的情况外，另外还写到一只狗和几只黄鸭，似乎有点不伦不类。但是在这个小天地里，人们远离城乡、社会、朋友、亲人。没有电影、戏剧和些许文化生活。如果我们不在身边所接触的事物中感受到一点乐趣，排解一下精神和生活的压力，那实在是太残酷了，所以我决定写出来供人评说。%This article reveals the living condition of the staff of the Research Institute of Dunhuang Cultural Relics in the 1940s, then under the direct control of the Ministry of Education of the National Government. The Institute with a staff of no more than 30 persons was isolated and unstable, much like a kite breaking away from its string. This group of people led by Chang Shuhong lived a hard life in a small and isolated world until the liberation. I’ll also mention a dog and a few yellow ducks, which may seem strange to those of refined tastes. Here people lived far away from cities, society, friends and relatives, without movies or drama or any form of cultural life. It would have been very painful if we could not amuse ourselves with what we did and saw to relieve our spiritual and social isolation.
