摘要
我观察蜘蛛和蝴蝶,还研究毛毛虫和飞蛾。有时,我想我是唯一注意这些事物的人了。要不是一家拥挤的自助餐厅,我将永远不会注意到瓦莱丽。毕竟,我一直都没有找新朋友。瓦莱丽是新来的学生。她总是将书抱在胸前,低着头走进教室。只有在老师提问她时,她才肯说话。她来我们学校一个月了,还没交到一个朋友。课间,她就坐在长椅上看书。如果你想知道她是谁,那你多半会得到这样的答复:“我和她在一起上体育课,但我不记得她叫什么。”
I look at spiders and butterflies.I watch caterpillars and moths.Sometimes I think I’m the only one who notices these things.But if it hadn’t been in a crowded cafeteria,I wouldn’t have ever noticed Valeri.After all,I wasn’t looking for new friends.Valeri was a new student.She walked to class with her books huddled against her chest and her head down.She talked only when the teacher asked her a question.After a month at our school,she hadn’t made any friend.At recess,she sat on a bench and read.If you asked who she was,you’d get a response like this,“She’s in my PE class,but I can’t remember her name.”
