What is more serious, each time windy rain, in dormitory serious water. 由于年代久远,瓦房宿舍横木开始腐烂,墙壁出现裂缝,每到冬天,北风就从裂缝、窗口吹进来,冷得学生只好把头缩进棉被里。更为严重的是,每次刮风下雨,宿舍里都会严重积水。 Why as for does not repair, a few words do not have money, does not have money, mimeographs the examination paper the paper to save to the student is using. 至于为什么不修,一句话没钱,是真的没钱,给学生油印试卷的纸张都是省着用的。 In the room only then a window, had been stuck by the newspaper, under the dim light, immature cheeks, 6 high and low beds, the high and low 12 beds, was representing 12 people. 屋里只有一个窗户,已经被报纸糊了起来,在昏暗的灯光下,一张张稚嫩的脸蛋,6张高低床,上下12个床位,代表着住了12个人。 At this time the rural middle school and disparity in city middle school also came out, did not exaggerate said, over ten years disparities had. 此时农村中学与城市中学的差距也出来了,不夸张的说,十年以上的差距是有的。 Li He sees a face fourth child calmly, at this moment is following early to arrive at the schoolmate, excited chirp chat. 李和看着一脸若无其事的老四,此刻正跟已经早到同学,兴奋的叽叽喳喳的聊天。 hope with said, „this condition compared with the family/home in painstakingly, good and evil a half year, such did not come”. 希同才说,“这条件是比家里苦了点,好歹也就半年了,不都这么过来的”。 Li He said, „I remember in this school the teacher family's house am also rent, this immediately in the second half of the year is also the critical time, cannot give to miss. I look for in teacher family/home to live to the fourth child, you make moon/month also accompany.
