在打球、跑步、做体操时都不能戴眼镜，可我摘掉眼镜就什么也看不见了。我撞上了教练，撞上单杠，撞上农科学生，撞上摆动着的铁环。正因如此，虽然我可以上这门课，但却什么也不能做。
而且，为了通过体育课（你须通过才能毕业），如果不会游泳你就得学。我不喜欢游泳老师，而且过了这么多年还是不喜欢游泳。
虽然从未游过泳，但我却通过了体育课，因为我让另一位学生用我的体育课号码（978），代替我游过了游泳池。
He was a quiet， amiable amiable adj.亲切的， 和蔼可亲的 blonde blonde adj.色白的， 碧眼的 youth， number 473， and he would have seen through a microscope for me if we could have got away with it， but we couldnt get away with it.
Another thing I didnt like about gymnasium work was that they made your strip strip n.条， 带 the day you registered. It is impossible for me to be happy when I am stripped and being asked a lot of questions.
Still， I did better than a lanky lanky adj.瘦长的 agricultural student who was crossexamined just before I was. They asked each student what college he was in—that is， whether Arts， Engineering， Commerce， or Agriculture. “What college are you in？” the instructor snapped at the youth in front of me. “Ohio State University，” he said promptly.
他是一个安静、温和、金发碧眼的青年，473号，要是我们能不被发现的话，他也会替我看显微镜的，但那不可能。
体育课注册时得脱光衣服，这让人感觉非常不舒服。当脱光衣服后，我又被询问许多问题，自然是很难高兴了。
即便这样，和我前面那位瘦高个子比起来，我还是好很多。他被盘问了好半天。他们问每一个学生是哪个学院的——也就是说，到底是艺术学院，工学院，商学院，还是农学院。“你是哪个学院的？”老师突然问我前面那位青年。“俄亥俄州立大学。”他脱口而出。
It wasnt that agricultural student but it was another a whole lot like him who decided to take up journalism， possibly on the ground that when farming went to hell he could fall bake on newspaper work.
He didnt realize， of course， that that would be very much like falling back fulllength on a kit on carpenters tools. Haskins didnt seem cut out for journalism， being too embarrassed to talk to anybody and unable to use a typewriter， but the editor of the college paper assigned him to the cow barns， the sheep house， the horse pavilion pavilion n.大帐篷， 亭， 阁， and the animal husbandry husbandry n.管理 department generally.
This was a genuinely genuinely adv.真诚地， 诚实地 big “beat”， for it took up five times as much ground and got ten times as great a legislative appropriation appropriation n.据为己有， 占有， 挪用(只指定用途的一笔)， 拨款 as the College of Liberal Arts.
那位农科学生并没有做出学新闻的决定，而是另外一个学生。他和农科学生很像，或许他觉得这么做可以使自己在农业不景气时转行到报业。
当然，他可能没有意识到，就像后退时倒在木匠的工具箱上一样，这样做并没有多大意义。哈斯金斯似乎天生就不适合搞新闻，他不擅长与人沟通，也不会打字。即便这样校刊编辑还是派他去牛棚、羊舍、马厩及一般的畜牧部门进行报道。
这是一个真正巨大的“采访领域”，因为上述畜牧部门占地面积是文学院的五倍，所获得的立法机关的拨款是文学院的十倍。
The agricultural student knew animals， but nevertheless nevertheless conj.然而， 不过 his stories were dull and colorlessly written.
He took all afternoon on each one of them， on account of having to hunt for each letter on the typewriter. Once in a while he had to ask somebody to help him hunt. “C” and “L”， in particular in particular adv.特别， were hard letters for him to find. His editor finally got pretty much annoyed at the farmerjournalist because his pieces were so uninteresting.
“See here， Haskins，” he snapped snap v.猛地吸住， 突然折断， 使劈啪地晌， 猛咬 at him one day， “why is it we never have anything hot from you on the horse pavilion？ Here we have two hundred head of horses on this campus—more than any other university in the Western Conference except Purdue—and yet you never get any real low down on them. Now shoot over to the horse barns and dig up something lively.”
这位农科学生熟悉动物，但他的文笔单调而毫无章法。
因为对打字机非常不熟悉，他每写一篇文章就得花一下午时间。每过一会儿他就得请人帮他寻字母，“C”和“L”这两个字母尤其难找。因为他的文章总是索然无味，最后，主编终于忍不住了。
“我说，哈斯金斯，”有一天编辑冲他说，“我们怎么从未从你那儿得到有关马厩的有趣报道呢？咱们学校有200匹马——比加入西部联合会的哪一所大学都多，除了普渡大学之外——可你从未真正把它们写进去。喂喂，赶快到马棚去，去发现些有趣生动的东西来。”
Haskins shambled shamble vi.蹒跚地走， 摇摇晃晃地走 out and came back in about an hour； he said something. “Well， start it off snappily，” said the editor. “Something people will read.” Haskins set to work and in a couple of hours brought a sheet of typewritten paper to the desk； it was a twohundred word story about some disease that had broken out among the horses. Its opening sentence was simple but arresting. It read：“ Who has noticed the sores on the tops of the horses in the animal husbandry building？”
哈金斯金跌跌撞撞地出去了，过了大概有一小时才回来，他说他已有所得。“唔，快点，”编辑说道，“写点有趣的东西。”哈斯金斯开始写作，几个小时后带来一篇打好的文章，放在桌上。字数有200左右，讲的是马群当中爆发的一种疾病。文章开头的那句话简单却又颇为醒目。那句子是：“有谁注意到，畜厩里马的头顶上长了疮。”
大学生涯有快乐，也会有烦恼，而这就是我们在成长过程中必须所面对的。大学里的点点滴滴都是难忘的，也许当时带给我们的是苦恼亦或是泪水，但它们都是我们人生历程上的一种宝贵的财富。一路走来，我们都是认真生活的人儿，在我们的脚下，我们记录了属于自己的酸甜苦辣，那是我们成长中的养分，催促着我们的梦想开花。
