Unit two认错人（改编）马克·吐温几年前的一天，我来到萨拉曼卡——纽约附近的一个火车站。

我计划在那儿搭乘卧车。

站台上都是人，他们涌入长长的卧车，把列车挤得满满的。

我问售票处的人能否买两张票，但他厉声回答说：“没票！”然后冲着我的脸关上了窗。

这真是对我尊严的莫大打击，然而我又需要这两张车票。

我找到一位地方官员，问他能否在卧铺车厢的某个地方找个可怜的小角落；但他猛然打断了我，厉声说道：“没有，找不到。

每个角落都挤满了。

好了，不要再来烦我了。

”说完，他便不理我而走开了。

我没料到他会这样对待我，我的尊严处于一种难以描述的状况。

我对同伴说：“他们这样对我讲话是因为他们不知道我是谁。

”可我的同伴却说:“别说这种傻话了。

即便他们知道你是谁，你觉得这能帮你在没有空座的火车上搞到座位吗？”说完他也不理我了。

这太过分了。

我找到刚才那个官员，非常有礼貌地告诉他我叫马克•吐温，我是否能——但他又一次打断了我：“我已经告诉过你不要再来烦我了。

”接着又不再理我了。

我无助地环顾四周，发现我的同伴目睹了整个经过。

我感到的耻辱无法用语言形容。

我说：“或许他没有听到我的名字。

”但我的同伴却不这么认为，他说：“他肯定清楚地听到你的名字了，只不过他不在乎罢了，就是这么回事。

”我不知道接下去会发生什么，但就在这时候,我注意到一个年轻的卧车行李搬运工正在跟列车员窃窃私语，并朝着我点头。

那个列车员随即转过身，毕恭毕敬地向我走来。

“我能为您效劳吗，先生？”他说道，“您要在卧车上找个空位吗？”“呃，当然，”我回答说，“可我问过站台上那个人，他说每个角落都塞满了，还叫我不要烦他。

”“不会吧，先生，我简直不敢相信他说了这样的话。

简直无法想象有人竟然这样对您说话，先生！我很抱歉，先生，但您一定是误会他了。

我们什么空地方都没了，只剩下那个大的家庭包房，里面有两个铺位和几把扶手椅，但这一切都供您享用。

过来，汤姆，把这些箱子搬上车！”搬运工拿了我们的小提箱，我们则上了车。
