摘要
在我的成长过程中,我一直觉得被人看到与父亲在一起是件很尴尬的事。父亲个子矮小,还患有严重的脚疾。我们走在一起时,他总是挽着我的胳膊来保持身体平衡,这样难免会招来一些好奇的目光,令我很不自在。但是如果他注意到了我的这些细微变化,即使再痛苦都会埋在心底,从不表露出来。我们走路的步调很难协调一致——他行动迟缓,我毫无耐心。因此,一路上我们交谈甚少。
When I was growing up, I was embarrassed to be seen withmy father. He was severely crippled and very short, and when we would walk together, his hand on my arm for balance, people would stare. I wouhl inwardly squirm at the unwanted attention. If he ever noticed or was bothered, he never let on.
