movie was jus four or five blocks from our house； an jenny went up an got some tickets an we
went in an set down。 she axed me if i want some popcorn an when she e back from gettin it；
the picture done started。
it is a movie about two people； a man an a lady called bonnie an clyde that robbed banks an
they was some interestin other people in it also。 but it was a lot of killin an shootin an shit like
that； too。 it seemed to me funny that folks would be shootin an killin one another that way； so'；s i
laughed a lot when that went on； an whenever i did； jenny curran seemed to squnch down in her
seat a lot。 halfway thru the movie； she was almost squnched down to the floor。 i suddenly saw
this an figgered she had somehow felled out of her seat； so i reached over an grapped her by the
shoulder to lif her up again。
as i did this； i heard somethin tear； an i look down an jenny curran'；s dress is ripped
pletely open an everthing is hangin out。 i took my other han to try to cover her up； but she
start makin noises an flail about wild…like； an me； i'；m tryin to hole onto her so'；s she don'；t fall
down again or e undone an there'；s people around us lookin back tryin to see what all the
motion is about。 suddenly a fellow e down the aisle an shine a bright light right on jenny
an me； but bein exposed an all； she menced to shriek an wail an then she jump up an run
out of the show。
nex thing i know； two men e an tell me to get up an i follow them to a office。 a few
minutes later； four policemen arrive an axe me to e with them。 they show me to a police car
an two get in front an two get in back with me； jus like it was with coach fellers'； goons； cept'；n
this time we do go 〃downtown；〃 an they escort me to a room an jab my fingers onto a pad an i get
my picture taken an they thowed me in jail。 it was a horrible experience。 i was worried all the
time bout jenny； but after a bit my mama showed up an e in wipin her eyes with a
handkerchief an twistin her fingers an i knowed i'；m in the doghouse again。
there was some kind of ceremony a few days later down to the courthouse。 my mama
dressed me in my suit an took me there； an we met a nice man with a moustache carrying a big
purse who tole the judge a bunch of things an then some other people； includin my mama； say
some other shit an finally it was my turn。
the man with the moustache took me by the arm so'；s i'；d stand up； an the judge axed me how
all this done happen？ i couldn'；t figger out what to say； so i jus shrugged my shoulders an then he
axes if there'；s anything else i want to add； an so i says； 〃i got to pee；〃 cause we'；d been settin there
almost haf a day an i'；m about to bust！ the judge； he lean forward from behind his big ole desk an
peer at me like i am a marsman or somethin。 then the feller with the moustache speaks up and
followin this the judge tells him to take me to the toilet； which he does。 i look back as we leavin
the room an see po ole mama holdin her head an daubin at her eyes with the handkerchief。
anyhow； when i get back； the judge be scratchin his chin an he say the whole deal is 〃very
peculiar；〃 but that he think i ought to go in the army or somethin which might hep straighten me
out。 my mama inform him that the united states army won'；t have me； account of i am a idiot；
but that this very mornin a letter done e from up to the university sayin that if i will play
football for them； i can go to school there scot free。
the judge say that sounds kinda peculiar too； but it'；s okay with him so long as i get my big
ass out of town。
the nex mornin i am all packed up an mama； she take me to the bus station an put me on the
bus。 i is lookin out the winder an there is mama； cryin an wipin her eyes with her handkerchief。
that is gettin to be a scene i know too well。 it is stamped permanant into my memory。 anyhow；
they started up the bus； an away i went。

阿甘正传（英文版）3
小！说
when we git up to the university； coach bryant he e out to the gym
where we all settin in our shorts and sweatshirts an begin makin a speech。 it bout the same kind of
speech coach fellers would make； cept even a simpleton like mysef could tell this man mean
bidness！ his speech short an sweet； an conclude with the statement that the last man on the bus to
the practice field will get a ride there not on the bus； but on coach bryant'；s shoe instead。
yessiree。 we do not doubt his word； an stack ourselfs into the bus like flapjacks。
all this was durin the month of august； which in the state of alabama is somewhat hotter
than it is elsewhere。 that is to say； that if you put a egg on top of your football helmet it would be
fried sunnyside up in about ten seconds。 of course nobody ever try that on account of it might get
coach bryant angry。 that was the one thing nobody wish to do； because life was almost
intolerable as it was。
coach bryant have his own goons to show me around。 they take me to where i is gonna
stay； which is a nice brick building on the campus that somebody says is called the 〃ape dorm。〃
them goons escort me over there in a car an lead me upstairs to my room。 unfortunately； what
might of looked nice from the outside was not true for the inside。 at first； it appear that nobody
had lived in this building for a long time； they was so much dirt an shit aroun； an most of the
doors had been torn off they hinges an bashed in； an most of the winders are busted out too。
a few of the fellers is lyin on they cots inside； wearin very little cause it about 110 degrees
hot in there； an flies an things be hummin an buzzin。 in the hall they is a big stack of newspapers；
which at first i afraid they gonna make us read； it being college an all； but soon i learn they are
for puttin down on the floor so'；s you don'；t have to step on all the dirt an shit when you walk
aroun。
the goons take me to my room an say they be hopin to find my roomate there； whose name
is curtis somebody； but he nowhere to be foun。 so they get my stuff unpacked an show me where
the bathroom is； which look worse than what you might expect to find at a one…pump gasoline
station； an they be on they way。 but before they go； one of the goons say curtis an me should get
on fine cause both of us have about as much brains as a eggplant。 i look real hard at the goon
what said that； cause i be tired of hearin all that shit； but he tell me to drop down and give him
fifty pushups。 after that； i just be doin what i'；m tole。
i went to sleep on my cot after spreadin a sheet over it to cover up the dirt； an was havin a
dream bout settin down in the parlor with my mama like we use to do when it was hot； an she'；d
fix me a limeade an talk to me hour after hour— an then suddenly the door of the room done
crashed in flat an scare me haf to death！ a feller be standin there in the doorway with a wild look
on his face； eyes all bugged out； no teeth in front； nose look like a yeller squash an his hair
standin straight up like he done stuck his thing in a light…socket。 i figger this be curtis。
he e inside the room like he expectin somebody to pounce on him； lookin from side to
side； an walk right over the door that he just caved in。 curtis ain'；t very tall； but he look like an
icebox otherwise。 first thing he axe me is where i'；m from。 when i say mobile； he say that is a
〃candyass〃 town； an informs me he'；s from opp； where they make peanut butter； an if i don'；t like
it； he gonna open up a jar hissef an butter my butt with it！ that were the extent of our
conversation for a day or so。
that afternoon at football practice it be about ten thousan degrees hot on the field； an all
coach bryant'；s goons runnin roun scowlin an yellin at us an makin us exercise。 my tongue
hangin down like it was a necktie or somethin； but i tryin to do the right thing。 finally they
divides up everbody an puts me with backs an we start to run pass patterns。
now be
