上周我第一次有机会坐高铁，当时我在郑州参加一个商务会议。

I had my first opportunity to ride the high-speed trains last week when I had a business meeting in Zhengzhou.

我事实上得到了一个机会去重新思考我的决定，当时导演说一些像“一个重要角色”和“你不必穿高跟鞋”之类的话。

I was, in fact, given a chance to rethink my decision, while the director said things like "an important part" and "You won't have to wear heels."

我选择了伯纳德·马拉默德。当时并不知道他那时正是一个纽约城市大学研究生，否则的话，我会有机会当年和他见上一面。

I chose Bernard Malamud, not knowing at the time that he was a graduate of CCNY or that I would have a chance to meet him that year.
