DeadMan'sIsland简介一个人有了隐私又不想让别人知道时，我们就可以说他“衣橱里有具骷髅”。大部分人都做过一些不光彩的事，卡罗尔·桑德斯也不例外。她有具“衣橱里的骷髅”，不管走到哪儿都摆脱不了。这使她越来越沮丧。当然，这件不光彩的事正在慢慢地毁坏着她的生活。后来她遇到一位更有隐私的人。他的隐私需要整个一个岛来遮掩。也许最有可能由卡罗尔发现他的隐私。但是如果她想探明他的隐私，他会怎么样呢？他会乐意把他的隐私告诉她吗？或者他会生气，非常生气吗？这全取决于他藏在锁着的房间中的那具“衣橱里的骷髅”究竟是什么——而卡罗尔要打开那扇锁着的门。本书作者约翰·埃斯科特是一位经验丰富的作家，现在英格兰南部的博恩默思生活和工作。1ComingtoEngland1ComingtoEnglandMynameisCarolSanders．IliveinEnglandnow，butwhenIwasyounger，IlivedinHongKong．Myfatherwasabusinessmanthereandmymotherworkedasasecretary．WelivedinHongKongforsevenyears．Iwashappyatschool，withlotsoffriends，andwehadagoodtime．Ilikedpopmusic—theRollingStones，DavidBowieandJakeRossoweremyfavourites．JakeRossowasmyfavouritesinger．HediedinacaraccidenttheyearIleftschool，butIlistenedtohispoprecordsallthetime．Ihadhundredsofpicturesandphotosofhimonmybedroomwall．ThenonedayinwinterwhenIwasseventeen，thingsbegantogowrongforme．MyfatherwenttoAustraliaonbusiness．Ilovedhimverymuchanddidn'tlikehimgoingaway．‘Comehomequickly，’Ialwayssaidtohim．HewasinAustraliafortwoweeks．Then，onthedayofhisjourneyhome，anaeroplanefromSydneycrashedintotheseajustsouthofHongKong．Everybodyontheplanedied．Iheardabouttheplanecrashontelevision．Atfirst，Ididnotthinkaboutmyfather．ThenIrememberedhewasflyingbackfromSydneyonthatday．第1页共30页http://www.en8848.com.cn/原版英语阅读网‘Oh，no！’Icried．Itelephonedtheairportbuttheydidnotknowthenamesofallthepassengersthen．‘Perhapsmyfatherdidn'tgetthatplane，’Ithought．‘Oh，please！Please！’MymotherwasatworkandIcalledheronthetelephone．Shecamehomequicklyandwewenttotheairportandwaitedfornews．Later，welearnedmyfatherwasontheplane．‘It'snottrue！’Ishouted．Butitwastrue，andIbegantocry．Icriedforweeksandweeks．Is...
