物像
The memory of objective things that have been experienced and passed away is a kind of perceptual impression from the time.
对于所经历过并且已经逝去的客观事物，所留下的记忆是一种来自于当时的感性印象。

There are some plants planted in my apartment, and from spring to winter, year after year. I have witnessed these plants being taken care of, from flourishing to withering, until death. Then a new plant is planted, the flower bloom and wither, and the cycle begins again. One day, when I was trying to remember what the dead plant looked like when it was in full bloom, I wondered what kind of situation gave me a certain impression. Is the memory left by this impression objective whether it was true or not. If not, then what exactly is memory?

家里种了一些植物，春去冬来，年复一年，我目睹着这些被照顾着的植物，从茂盛到枯萎，直至死亡。然后又重新种下一株新的某种植物，花败花开，周而复始。直到有一天，我努力去回想已经死去的那颗植物在茂盛时是何种模样时，我开始思考，到底是什么样的情景和何种原因，让我产生和留下了对先前模样的某种印象。因这种印象所留下的记忆，是否客观和真实？如果不是，那记忆到底是什么？
