(二十五)
I climbed the stairs slowly, carrying a big suitcase, my father following with two more. By the time I got to the third floor, I was tired and at the same time feeling lonely. Worse still, Dad missed a step and fell, sending my new suitcases rolling down the stairs. "Damn1!" he screamed, his face turning red. I knew trouble was ahead. Whenever Dad's face turns red look at!
How could I ever get him to finish unloading2 the car without screaming at me and making a scene in front of the other girls, girls I would have to spend the rest of the year with? Doors were opening and faces peering3 out(探出),as Dad walked with difficulty4 close behind. I felt it in my bones that my college life was getting off to a (n)bad start.
"Find the room quickly, "I thought." Get him into a chair and calmed down." But then again, would there be a chair in Room 316?Or would it be a(n)empty room?
Finally I turned the key in the lock and pushed the door open, with Dad still complaining(抱怨)about a hurting knee or something. I put my head in, expecting the worst. But to my surprise, the room wasn't empty at all! It had furniture, curtains, a TV, and even paintings on the walls.
And there on a well-made bed sat Amy, my new roommate, dressed neatly5. Greeting me with a nod, she said in a soft voice, "Hi, you must be Cori. "Then, she turned down the music and looked over at Dad. "And of course, you're Mr. Faber, "she said, smiling." Would you like a glass of iced tea? "Dad's face turned decidedly less red before he could bring out a "yes."
I knew then that Amy and I would be friends and my first year of college would be a success. [NMET2000]
