《The Last Locker on the Left》封面

Emmanuel gets his locker assignment on the first day. His paper says locker 114, last row. He finds the hallway and looks around.

开学第一天,伊曼纽尔拿到了储物柜的分配单。纸上写着:114号柜,最后一排。他找到那条走廊,四处看了看。

He sees a lock already on locker 114. Someone put a blue lock on it. Emmanuel checks his paper again.

他看到114号柜上已经挂着一把锁,是有人挂上的蓝色锁。伊曼纽尔又看了一遍自己的纸。

Lucia arrives at the same locker a minute later. Her paper also says locker 114. She sees Emmanuel at the locker.

一分钟后,露西娅也来到了同一个储物柜前。她的纸上也写着114号柜。她看到伊曼纽尔站在柜子前。

"This is my locker," Lucia says. "It says right here on my paper." She holds up her assignment sheet.

“这是我的柜子,”露西娅说,“我的纸上写得清清楚楚。”她举起了自己的分配单。

"That's strange," Emmanuel says. "My paper says the exact same number." He holds up his own sheet.

“真奇怪,”伊曼纽尔说,“我的纸上写的是完全一样的号码。”他举起了自己的单子。

They both look at the numbers closely. The office printed two papers with the same locker. Somebody made a small mistake somewhere.

他们仔细看了看号码。办公室给两个人打印了同一个储物柜。不知哪里出了一点小差错。

"Let's go ask the office together," Lucia says. Emmanuel nods and follows her down the hall.

“我们一起去办公室问问吧,”露西娅说。伊曼纽尔点点头,跟着她走过走廊。

The office secretary checks her computer screen. "You're both new students," she says. "The system doubled one number by accident."

办公室的秘书查看了电脑屏幕。“你们俩都是新生,”她说,“系统不小心把一个号码重复了。”

She gives Emmanuel a new locker across the hall. Lucia keeps locker 114 as planned.

她给了伊曼纽尔走廊对面的一个新柜子。露西娅按原计划保留了114号柜。

"See you around," Lucia says with a laugh. Emmanuel waves and walks to his new locker.

“回头见,”露西娅笑着说。伊曼纽尔挥挥手,走向他的新柜子。
