少女时代,我们一家6口住在新泽西州北部的一个小镇。房子是一幢建在山坡上的3层小楼,刷成薄荷绿的石灰墙,配上墨绿色的门窗,漂亮极了。美中不足的是木瓦房顶,不是这儿破,就是那儿漏。当时我们并不富裕,雇不起泥瓦匠,修房顶的工作就落到了老爸身上。等我和姐姐长到十七八岁时,这项工作却有了新的含义:人品测试——来找我们出去约会的男孩子都要经过老爸的屋顶测验。 Girlhood, a family of 6 we live in a town in northern New Jersey. The house is a three-story building built on the hillside, painted mint green lime walls, with dark green doors and windows, very beautiful. The fly in the ointment is the shingle roof, not here to break, there is leakage. At that time, we were not rich, we could not afford masons, and the work of fixing the roof fell on Dad. When my elder sister and I were seventeen or eighteen years old, the work had a new meaning: Personality test - The boy who came to meet us for appointment went through Dad’s roof test.
