大一新生日记

星期日

从家里出发后，我们开车开了很长一段时间才到达我住的宿舍楼。我进去登记。宿舍管理员给了我一串钥匙，并告诉了我房间号。我的房间在6楼，可电梯坏了。等我们终于找到8号房的时候，妈妈已经涨红了脸，上气不接下气。我打开门锁，我们都走了进去。

但爸爸马上就从里面钻了出来。这个房间刚刚够一个人住，一家人都进去，肯定装不下。我躺在床上，不动弹就可以碰到三面墙。

幸亏我哥哥和我的狗没一起来。

后来，爸爸妈妈就走了，只剩下我孤零零一个人。周围只有书和一个箱子。接下来我该做什么？

星期一

早上，有一个为一年级新生举办的咖啡早茶会。我见到了我的导师，他个子高高的，肩膀厚实，好像打定了主意要逗人开心。

“你是从很远的地方来的吗？”他问我。他边说话边晃悠脑袋， 咖啡都洒到杯托里了。

“我家离爱丁堡不太远，开车大约6个小时，”我说。

“好极了！”他说，接着又走向站在我旁边的那个女孩儿。“你是从很远的地方来的吗？”他问。但不等那女孩儿作出任何回答，他就说到，“好极了！”然后就继续向前走。他啜了一口咖啡，却惊讶地发现杯子是空的。

妈妈打来电话。她问我是不是见到了导师。

星期二

我觉得有点儿饿，这才意识到我已经两天没吃东西了。我下楼去，得知一天三餐我可以在餐厅里吃。我下到餐厅排进了长队。

“早餐吃什么？”我问前面的男生。

“不知道。我来得太晚了，吃不上早餐了。这是午餐。”

午餐是自助餐，今天的菜谱是鸡肉、米饭、土豆、沙拉、蔬菜、奶酪、酸奶和水果。前面的男生每样儿都取一些放到托盘上，付了钱，坐下来吃。 我再也不觉得饿了。

妈妈打电话来。她问我有没有好好吃饭。

星期三

早上9点钟我要去听一个讲座。我醒时已经8:45了。竟然没有人叫我起床。奇怪。

我穿好衣服，急匆匆地赶到大讲堂。我在一个睡眼惺忪的女生旁边坐下。她看了看我，问：“刚起床？”她是怎么看出来的？

讲座进行了1个小时。结束时我看了看笔记，我根本就看不懂自己写的字。

Professor That's right, yes.

Interviewer Tell me how many universities are there? How many institutions?

Professor In total there are eight institutions: There's Harvard, Yale, Brown, Columbia, Cornell, Dartmouth,
