3、nt seem so bad once you get to know them.

10、rsity where he worked. I got lost. I had to call him for help. One of his friends said to him later, “How could she get lost? She just needed to go straight.”Well, no. Thats the problem. You never “just go straight”, because France is the land of roundabouts (弯道). Highways, major streets, little vil

11、lage lanes if you go straight long enough, youll end up going in circles. Even after a year here, Id still get lost going to the grocery store, or just about anywhere that wasnt within a hundred yards of my house.I admit I have a horrible sense of direction, cant read a map, and am not such a good d

17、he firm belief I had in the arrival through the chimney (烟囱) of the little Santa Claus (圣诞老人), the kind, white-bearded old man who at midnight left in my tiny shoe a present I found the next morning. Midnight! Its the perfect hour children dont know. What great efforts I made not to go to sleep befo

18、re the little old man appeared!I had both a great desire and great fear of seeing him, but could never stay awake until then, and the next day my first look was for my shoe.
