Too Late to Regret It

When I was a junior， I met a second-year student in my department. He wasn"t tall or good-looking， but he was very nice， attractive and athletic. He had something that I admired very much. He was natural， warm， and sincere.

! disregarded （不顾） my parents" disapproval. We were very happy together. He picked me up from" my dorm every morning， and after class we would sit alongside the stream that ran through campus， or sunbathe （晒太阳） on the lawn. At night he would walk me back to my dorm. He came from a poor family， but in order to make me happy， he borrowed money from his friend to buy presents and meals for me. Our fellow students looked up to him-as a role model，and the girls envied 妒忌） me. He wasn"t a local， but wanted to stay here after graduation. I thought we had a future together.

However， when I got a part-time job during the summer vacation， people began giving me a lot of pressure， saying that a pretty， intelligent girl like me should find a better guy to spend time with. This was also what my family thought. He spent the summer in his hometown， so I was all by myself. When he got back， I began finding faults with-him. But his big heart and warmth soon drove all unpleasant，thoughts away. However， I had no idea how badly I had hurt him and that things would get worse.

I had a good part-time job off campus that paid pretty well. With my good performance at school， I also got admission to graduate school at one of China"s best universities. He， on the other hand， did not do so well at school or at work. I had to worry about his living expenses， job and scores.

Almost all my colleagues and friends advised me to break up with him. Then we had a quarrel last June. He was in great pain， and my cold words and bad moods started turning him away， Graduation time was drawing near. He said that he couldn"t put up with me anymore， and he said he wanted to go back to his hometown. I was shocked and looked at him in despair.

True love happens only once， but I found it out too late.

So she knocked at the door. As there was no answer, she opened it and went inside. There she saw a room with a long table. On it there were seven knives and forks, seven plates and drinking cups, and on the plates and in the cups were food and drink.

more and more when you are on business. The other day I was at the airport waiting for a ticket to Washington and the girl in the ticket office said, "I' m sorry, I can’t sell you a ticket. Our computer is down."

"If your computer is down, just write me out a ticket."

"I can't write you out a ticket. The computer is the only one allowed to do so."

I looked down the counter and every passenger was just standing there drinking coffee and staring at the black screen. Then I asked her, "What do all the people do？"

"We give the computer the information about your trip, and then it tells us whether you can fly with us or not."

"So when it goes down, you go down with it."

"That’s what happens, sir."

"How long will the computer be down？" I wanted to know.

"I have no idea. Sometimes it's down for ten minutes, sometimes for two hours. There is no way we can find out without asking the computer, and since it’s down it won’t answer us."

After the girl told me they had no backup computer, I said, "Let's forget the computer. What about your planes？ They're still flying, aren't they？"

"I couldn't tell without asking the computer."

"Maybe I could just go to the gate and ask the pilot if he’s flying to Washington." I suggested.

"I wouldn’t know what gate to send you to. Even if the pilot was going to ' Washington', he couldn’t take you if you didn’t have a ticket."

"Is there any other airline flying to Washington within the next few hours.'？"

"I wouldn't know," she said, pointing at the dark screen. "Only 'IT' knows. 'it' can't tell me."

By this time there were quite a few people standing in lines. The word soon spread to other travelers that the computer was down. Some people went white, some people started to cry and still others kicked their luggage(行李).

The best headline for the article is ______.

A．When the Computer Is Down

B．The Most Frightening Words

C．The Computer of the Airport

D．Asking the Computer
