I didn't speak until I was over two years old, causing my mother to worry for a long time that I might be deaf. When I finally did speak it was when my parents had friends over for dinner; my first words, addressed to the person next to me, were "would you like some more cake?"

我直到两岁多才说话,这让我的母亲担心了很长一段时间,她觉得我可能是聋子。当我终于开口说话的时,是我父母请朋友来吃晚饭的时候:我对我旁边的人说的第一句话是:“你要不要再来点蛋糕?”

I received my first "love letter" in second grade. I corrected the spelling and grammar in red ink and returned to sender.

我在二年级收到了第一封“情书”。我用红色墨水校正拼写和语法,然后还给送我情书的人。

I stole several bulbs off the Christmas tree, took them down to the basement2 and broke them on the floor to see what they were made of. Then I promptly3 forgot I had done any of that and later

walked over them in bare feet.

我从圣诞树上偷了几个灯泡,把它们带到地下室,在地板上把它们打碎,看看它们是用什么做的。然后我很快就忘了我做过的事情,后来,我赤脚踩在这些灯泡上。

I had (have) horrible4 insomnia and would stay up late reading. I snuck a flashlight under my pillow5 so I could read. My mom realized what I was doing and why and replaced the batteries6 when needed without me asking for it.

我以前(包括现在)失眠得厉害,都会熬夜看书。我把手电筒偷偷放在枕头下面,这样就能看书了。我妈妈意识到我在做什么以及知道我为什么会那样,她便在需要换电池的时候给我换了电池,甚至都不用我要求她。
