She commandeered the room in the basement of her dorm as soon as she realized she would have to pull an all-nighter in order to prepare for tomorrow’s final exam. Her roommate, Jenna, liked to get to bed early, so she packed up everything she thought she would need and went downstairs to study . . . and study . . . and study some more. 她占用宿舍的地下室的那间房,因为她意识到为了准备明天的期末考试她今晚必须通宵。她的室友吉娜,习惯早睡,所以她打包好学习要用的东西去楼下学习,学习,尽可能多学习以下。 It was two o’clock, when she realized that she’d left one of the textbooks upstairs on her bed. With a dramatic sigh, she rose, and climbed the stairs slowly to her third-floor dorm room. The lights were dimin the long hallway, and the old boards creaked under her weary tread. She reached her room and turned the handle as softly as she could, pushing the door open just enough to slip inside, so that the hall lights wouldn’t wake her roommate. 凌晨两点那的时候,她意识到有一本教科书忘在了床上。她大叹了一口气,起身,然后满满爬上了她位于3楼的寝室。楼道的灯很暗,久木板在她疲惫的脚步下嘎吱作响。她到了宿舍,尽可能轻的转动门把手,把门推开成一个刚好能进入的小缝,以免楼道灯光照醒室友。 |
