常春藤生活英語：A Bad Way to Start the Day 忙中有錯(cuò)
Along the way, Paul notices that many people are staring at him. He just got a new haircut1, so he thinks that might be the reason. In addition, he is wearing a cool new T-shirt he bought yesterday. Paul wonders if they think he is a fashionable person.
When he arrives at school, Paul discovers that he forgot to remove the price tag2 from his T-shirt. He also finds that he is wearing his T-shirt inside out. Just then, Paul realizes that those people were actually laughing at him.
保羅醒來時(shí)發(fā)現(xiàn)他上課已經(jīng)遲到了。昨晚他和朋友玩到很晚，因此睡過了頭。保羅很快地吃了點(diǎn)早餐，并穿好衣服。他得在中午前繳一份報(bào)告，所以他必須趕去學(xué)校把它寫完。
去學(xué)校的途中，保羅注意到很多人都盯著他看。他剛換了一個(gè)新發(fā)型，因此他覺得那可能是其中的原因。除此之外，他還穿了一件昨天剛買的很酷的新T恤。保羅在想他們是否認(rèn)為他是個(gè)時(shí)髦的人。
保羅到了學(xué)校時(shí)，發(fā)現(xiàn)他忘了將T恤上的價(jià)格卷標(biāo)拿掉。他還發(fā)現(xiàn)他把T恤里外穿反了。就在那時(shí)，保羅才明白那些人其實(shí)是在笑他。
