携习作给大家拜年！

其实就算没有习作，也会来拜年的：）本来想来贴一首中文诗，总觉得有些…… 还好，我的《佳思地77号》英译发表了，就摘一段放这里吧。今天再读，还是觉得有些不可圈不可点，实在还得再努力精改（目标就是整理进英文小说集）。也请美语坛老师们多多赐教指点。用广东话说，就是谢谢先：）

 My garage and house were connected. When the garage door was shut down behind me, I would feel I was home safe without a doubt.

I slowly pulled my car into the garage and closed the door right after.  Just as I was getting out of the car and about to open the door to the house, I heard something moving behind me. Before I was able to turn around, a man’s voice uttered: “No rush; slowly get in!”

I had watched enough movies and heard enough stories to realize what was going on. Although that voice was pretty low and calm, my hands were sweaty and cold. My entire body was trembling with fear.

“Open the door – No, put the other hand up.” The guy ordered again.

“Ok, Ok.” While OK’ing, I raised one hand and tried to open the door with the other shivering hand.

I dared not to turn around.

Finally I entered the living room and put my purse on the couch. My left hand was still up in the air.

“Now sit down, slowly.” The man behind me continued to make demands.

I slowly turned around and sat down quietly on the coach, still with my head down.

What if he is a rapist? My brain stopped functioning when that idea occurred to me.

“Don’t be scared like that. I am not a bad guy.” He said, as if he had seen through my mind.
