Like a lot of college students, I bought used books hoping someone would have already underlined the important stuff. And the books I bought were thoroughly underlined. When I started to read, I was blown away. This was hot stuff!
我跟大多数大学生一样,买旧书时就指望着书中的重点已经被人标出。我买的书都画了下划线。当我开始阅读时,我被震撼了。内容很火辣!
All the books had the same female name in the front. This girl really knew how to underline—not only the juicy parts, but the beautiful passages about love. I looked her up in the phone book and she was listed. I figured that I’d call her, hoping for anything from a date to copies of the papers she might have written about Lawrence.
所有的书前面都有相同的女性名字。这个女孩确实懂得如何在下面划线——不仅是绘声绘色的部分,还有关于爱情的美丽段落。我在电话簿上查到了她的名字,她在电话簿上登记了。我想了很久,觉得应该给她打电话,说不定能和她约会或是获得几份她论述劳伦斯作品的文章副本。
