下麵這一段的時間順序有點兒confusing, 不知道是不是highlight部分的時態問題(when I remembered" happened? Are we in love是心裏想的話?可能用上引號會好一點兒 )。
或者是因為和前麵有點兒重複,我理解的時間順序是這樣:
at the beginning, the two of you played twice a week--then-- you two played the first game with a dozen of players--six months later?--only she and I played table tennis.
Xie was very good at playing table tennis and she was selected to play for our school. I liked to play table tennis too. At beginning, we played with a group of enthusiasts twice a week. Gradually, for various reasons, all other members had left the group, and only Xie and I still played regularly. We thus became close friends, so close that we were seen together on all occasions. Other students started keeping a distance from us, all thinking we were a couple. We did not bother to explain, because we knew the more we tried to explain, the more convinced they would become that we were in love. I remembered the first game we played with a dozen of players, in which we barely talked – she was the center of attention and I did not have a chance. Now, about six months later, only she and I played table tennis, primarily talking while absent-mindedly playing, to be exact. Sometimes, I was confused too. Are we in love?
