t was a good joke to come up behind a naked(裸体的) boy, and push him into the pool. I made quite a
habit of this with boys of my own size or less.
One day I saw a boy wrapped in a towel(毛巾) on the side of the pool. He was no bigger than I was,
so I thought him a fair game. Coming secretly behind, I pushed him in, holding on to his towel so that it
would not get wet, I was surprised to see an angry face come out from the water, and a being of great
strength making its way by force strokes (猛力地划)to the shore. I fled, but in vain.(徒劳的) He
overtook me, seized me violently, and threw me into the deepest part of the pool. I soon climbed out on
the other side, and found myself surrounded by a crowd of younger boys." Do you know what you have
done?" they said," It's Amery; he is in Grade Six. He is champion(冠军) at gym, he has got his football
honor."
I was frightened and felt ashamed. How could I tell his position when he was wrapped in a bath towel
and so small." He didn't seem pleased at all, so I added in a most brilliant word," My father, who is a great
man, is also small." At this he laughed, and after some general words about my rude behavior and how I
had better be careful in the future, signified(说明) the incident was closed.
