明天帶娃去San Diego,不學習了,今天交上作業。
逃學的孩子們都缺乏想像力。他們通常能夠做到的,至多也就是安靜地釣上一天魚,或在電影院裏坐上8個小時,一遍遍地看同一部電影。而有那麽一個小男孩,他 在逃學期間旅行了1,600英裏,從而使上述所有逃學的孩子們都相形見絀了。他搭便車到了多佛,天快黑時鑽進了一條船,想找個地方睡覺。第二天早上他醒來 時,發現船在這段時間已經到了加來。當男孩從船裏爬出來時,誰也沒有發現他。從那裏他又搭上卡車到了巴黎。司機給了他幾塊餅幹和一杯咖啡,就把他丟在了城 外。男孩截住的下一輛車,沒有像他希望的那樣把他帶到巴黎市中心,而是把他帶到了法國和西班牙邊界上的佩皮尼昂。他在那兒被一個警察抓住了,之後被當局送 回了英國。他無疑為成千上萬夢想逃避上學的孩子們創造了一項紀錄。
All children that skip school lack imagination(are not that imaginative?). What they usually could do, at the best, is to spend a quiet day fishing, or to sit in the cinema watching the same movie over and over for eight hours. However, there was this boy, who traveled 1,600 miles during his truant(?), outsmarting all the above children. He hitchhiked to Dover and crawled into a boat at dusk to find a place to sleep. He woke up the next morning only to find that the boat had gotten to Calai. No one noticed him when he crawled out of the boat. From there, he got on a truck and went to Paris. The truck driver gave him a few biscuits and a cup of coffee and left him outside of the city. The next car the boy stopped did not take him to downtown Paris as he wanted, but to Perpignan, the border of France and Spain. He was caught there by a policeman and sent back to the Britain. He undoubtedly set a record for thousands of children who dream of skipping school.
