每当我闭上眼睛,总会想起父亲教我听歌的那个夜晚。那时,我还是个五六岁的小女孩。我的家乡地处内华达州北部,因干旱而时有风暴,气候十分恶劣。那天异常炎热,使人窒息。夜幕降临时,我上床睡觉。突然一道闪电划破夜空,随之便传来沉闷的雷鸣。我连忙用被单遮住脸,双手紧抱着枕头。后来雷声不停,震耳欲聋,闪电哗哗,把房间照得通明。我很想跑到父母的卧室去,可全身直打哆嗦,动弹不得,唯一能做的事便是大声哭叫起来。
Whenever I close my eyes, I always remember the night my father taught me to listen to songs. At that time, I was still a little girl of five or six years old. My hometown is in the northern part of Nevada, where there are storms and bad weather. Very hot that day, suffocating. When night falls, I go to bed. Suddenly a lightning pierced the night sky, followed by a dull thunder. I quickly cover the face with sheets, hands tightly hug the pillow. Later, thunder non-stop, deafening, lightning rushing, the room illuminated. I really want to go to my parents’ bedroom, my whole body shudders, I can not move, and the only thing I can do is cry out loud.
