   有一次我拿着书目到奥兰克大学的图书馆借书。书目上共有5本书,我自己折腾的半个小时,一本也没有找到,只好请人帮忙。结果可想而知,一本需要到街对面去借,而且只能借两个礼拜;一本两个星期以后才有空缺;另外两本都不在我折腾的level G和level 1,而是要到level M去找。


  我进进出出不少楼,还真没见过M。
  来到电梯口,我不知道要去哪一层,是先down还是up。我只好先上电梯再说,还好我一眼看见了M,赶紧按了下。虽然到了M层,但是我心里很不舒服。我问一个和我一起走出电梯的人:What does M stand for?她对我莞尔一笑,说了个单词:mezzanine。
  我并不知道这个单词是什么意思,只能默默记下,回家查找信息。
  回到家,我第一件事就是打开电脑,查level M的英文意思,不用说,很快,一下子就查到了那位同学告诉我的mezzanine是什么意思。mezzanine的意思是介于两层楼之间,比其他楼层要狭小的楼层。mezzanine尤指一楼和二楼之间的楼面。
  可见level M指的就是level mezzanine,从当时那个同学告诉我这个单词时候的神情,可见这并不是什么生僻词。
