阅览室里得到的教训
【内容提示】
你们学校阅览室的座位不多，因此同学们总要预先去占座位。有一次，你去阅览室迟了，座位上已经坐满了人。突然，你发现有一处空着。走过去一看，桌上放着一本书。你把书往旁边一推就坐下了。过了一会，书的主人回来了要此座位，你强词夺理说是你占的座位。不料，旁边的同学都帮那位同学说话，弄得你下不了台，只好退出阅览室。

a lesson learned in the reading-room
there are not enough seats in the reading-room in our school. just because of this, i had a very special eperience that i shall never forget.
one day, i was annoyed ① by the hot weather. after drinking a bottle of water, i ran fast towards the reading-room.
when i pushed the door open, i saw what i epected. there was no empty seat. i looked very carefully at every corner, hoping to find one, but it seemed hopeless. suddenly i caught sight of an empty seat with a book on it. i knew it must have been “occupied②”by someone, but i was eager to sit down to have a rest after running. so i put the book on the other side of the table, and sat down.
about 10 minutes later, i heard a very low voice behind me. “ecuse me, sister. i＇m afraid that this seat is mine.”“what? it＇s yours? how can you say that?” the little girl seemed a little nervous. “i remember i put my book on this desk before lunch,”she said. “please don＇t draw a conclusion so quickly before you have enough evidence ③! ”i said in a loud voice. it made nearly everyone in the room turn their heads towards me. i felt a little embarrassed.
just then, a student net to me said,“to tell the truth, this seat is really the little girl＇s. i think you should give it to her.” my face turned red at once. i can＇t describe how i felt at that moment, and i don＇t remember how i went out of the room with my books before so many eyes.
this happened 4 years ago. since then i have often asked myself if i have done anything without considering other people＇s rights.
