在我们的研究生宿舍里摆放着一台黑白电视,两年前买的,价格是一百八十元。对于质量如此低劣的电视我们当然不能抱有太高的期望,它的作用一般仅限于周日的意甲足球联赛。但最近它明显忙碌了很多,在美国开始轰炸南斯拉夫后,我们开始学会关心政治。每晚10点,宿舍聚满一大群人,黑压压的,满屋子的爱国热情。一天看完晚间新闻后我随手调了个台,发现电视上居然在播一部我很熟悉的影片,我又惊又喜,发出一声尖叫,把左邻右舍刚刚走开不久的同学又召唤回来,他们神情紧张地问:“怎么啦怎么啦?是不是美国佬又干坏事啦?” A black and white TV set in our graduate dormitory was purchased two years ago at a price of $ 180. Of course, we can not expect too much for such a poor quality TV, and its role is generally limited to the Serie A football leagues on Sunday. But recently it was obviously much more busy, and after the United States began bombing Yugoslavia, we began to learn to care about politics. Every night at 10 o’clock, the dormitory filled with a large group of people, unruly, full house patriotic enthusiasm. One day after reading the evening news, I readily transferred a station and found that I was actually broadcasting on television a movie that I was familiar with. I was scared and delighted. I uttered a scream and left neighbors just walked away shortly after classmates Call back, they looked nervously asked: “What’s the matter how? Is not the Yankee bad things?”
