B
It was my first day at school. I felt nervous and went to all my classes with no friends.
I listened carefully to all the lessons and waited for lunch. Then, finally, the bell rang. It was time to talk and have fun.
In the lunch line I met a new friend who came from Germany, and though I am French, we got along fine. I was so happy when she said, “Sit with us at our table.” She pointed to the table next to the door.
So I agreed. I took my tray (餐盘) and was about to walk with her across the floor, when suddenly someone touched my arm. “Hey, I saw you on the bus,” said a tall girl in a long skirt. “I see your French star necklace. You should sit with us.”
At that moment I looked around, the Spanish only sat with other Spanish and the Russians always with the Russians.
I saw how wars got started. Everyone stuck to his or her own kind. The lunchroom was a map of the world. Why was everyone so blind?
And so I turned this girl down, and went with the first, and there was no enmity (敌意). I built a bridge between two worlds when I sat with those different from me.
