"Of course," she said. She dug through aprecariously stacked pile of documents on her desk till she found the ones she was looking for. "I have your schedule right here, and a map of the school." She brought several sheets to the counter to showroe.
"当然，"她说道，她在自己办公桌上一堆早就有所准备的文件中翻了半天，才翻到了要找的那几份，"我这就把你的课程表给你，还有一张校园的地图。"她把好几张纸拿到台子上给我看。
She went through my classes for me, highlighting the best route to each on the map, and gave me a slip to have each teacher sign, which I was to bring back at the end of the day. She smiled at me and hoped, like Charlie, that I would like it here in Forks. I smiled back as convincingly as I could.
她帮我仔细检查了一下我的课程，在校园地图上把上每一节课的最佳路线都一一标了出来，然后给了我一张纸片让每个老师签字，要我在放学前再把签过字的纸片交回来。就像查理一样，她冲我笑了笑并希望我喜欢福克斯。我也冲她笑了笑，而且尽了最大的努力，让她相信我的微笑不是装出来的。
When I went back out to my truck, other students were starting to arrive.I drove around theschool, following the line of traffic. I was glad to see that most of the cars were older like mine, nothing flashy. At home I'd lived in one of the few lower-income neighborhoods that were included in the Paradise Valley District. It was a common thing to see a new Mercedes or Porsche in the student lot. The nicest car here was a shiny Volvo, and it stood out. Still, I cut the engine as soon as I was in a spot, so that the thunderous volume wouldn't draw attention to me.
我出来朝车边走去时，别的学生开始到校了。我开车沿交通线绕学校转了一圈。我高兴地看到大多数的车都跟我的车一样破，一点儿不浮华。在凤凰城，我住在为数不多的几个低收入的居民区中的一个居民区里，而这些居民区都隶属于天堂谷行政区管辖。在学生停车区，看见一辆新梅塞德斯或者保时捷是很寻常的事情。这里最好的车是一辆亮闪闪的沃尔沃，鹤立鸡群。不过，一到停车位我还是马上就把火熄了，省得它那雷鸣般的声音把注意力吸引到我身上来。
I looked at the map in the truck, trying to memorize it now; hopefully I wouldn't have to walk around with it stuck in front of my nose all day. I stuffed everything in my bag, slung 2 the strap 3 over my shoulder, and sucked in a huge breath. I can do this, I lied to myself feebly. No one was going to bite me. I finally exhaled 4 and stepped out of the truck.
我在车里看了看校园地图，想当时在车上就能把它记住;这样的话，就有希望不需要一天到晚走到哪里，都得把它贴在鼻子前面了。我把所有的东西塞进了书包，将书包带子挎在了肩上，吸了一大口气。我可以搞定，我底气不足地对自己撒了个谎，没有人会把我吃了。最后，我深呼一口气从车里走了出来。
I kept my face pulled back into my hood 1 as I walked to the sidewalk,crowded with teenagers. My plain black jacket didn't stand out, I noticed with relief.
我往人行道那边走去的时候，脸一直缩在帽兜里面。人行道上挤满了十几岁的孩子。我朴素的黑夹克并不显眼,降低了我受到关注的可能。
