　　It was my first day at school. I walked into the building where I was going to live ，and looked at door after door for my name. At last I found it. In the room there was already a student making his bed.

　　After we said“Hello”to each other， he continued his work， paying no attention to me.“what a stuck-up fellow，”I thought. I examined the room. It was not different in the fittings and furnishings from any other room I had seen. but it had been thoroughly cleaned by my new roommate， no doubt.

　　I looked at him. He was thin， short， and dark. His hair was like a bundle of straw. His dirty clothes and tired look were clearly signs of a long journey . His clothes were made of cheap cloth. The coat was too short and the trousers were too loose. And he wore a pair of rubber shoes ， which were very unfashionable. He did not look like a smart senior student at all . “A yokel ，”I concluded.

　　The second time he spoke ，his accent told me that he was from the south“Shall I help you to get your luggage from the office？”he asked.

　　I did not refuse since I really needed help. He was quick in movement.“A good guy ，”I said to myself，“I will make friends with him.”I hurried and caught up with him.
