68 Persistent纠缠不休
I crossed the street to avoid meeting him, but he saw me and came running towards me. It was no use pretending that I had not seen him, so I waved to him. I never enjoy meeting Nigel Dykes. He never has anything to do. No matter how busy you are, he always insists on coming with you. I had to think of a way of preventing him from following me around all morning.
'Hello, Nigel,' I said. 'Fancy meeting you here!'
'Hi, Elizabeth,' Nigel answered. 'I was just wondering how to spend the morning -- until I saw you. You're not busy doing anything, are you?' 'No, not at all,' I answered. 'I'm going to...'
'Would you mind my coming with you?' he asked, before I had finished speaking. 'Not at all,' I lied, 'but I'm going to the dentist.'
'Then I'll come with you,' he answered. 'There's always plenty to read in the waiting room!
我穿过马路以便避开他，但他看到了我并朝我跑过来。它是没有用的，我假装没有看见他，所以我向他挥手致意。我就怕遇到奈吉尔。他从来都是无事可做。不管你有多忙，他总是坚持要跟你去。我得想办法不让他整个上午缠着我。”你好，奈吉尔，”我说。”怎么会在这里遇见你！嗨，伊丽莎白，”奈吉尔回答说。”我正不知道怎么消磨这一上午——直到我看到你。你不忙，是吗？”不，不，”我回答。”我要„„”“你介意我跟你一起去吗？”他问，在我结束发言。”不，”我撒谎道，“但是我要去牙医。”“那我也跟你去，”他说。”候诊室里总有很多阅读！
