Question

It was my first day at school. I felt nervous. I went to all my classes with no friends. I felt like no one cared.

I listened carefully to all the lessons and waited for lunch time at one o’clock. Then, finally, the bell rang. It was time to talk and have fun.

In the lunch line I met a new friend from Arabia(阿拉伯), and though I am Jewish, we got along well. I was so happy when she said, “Sit with us at our table.” She showed me the table next to the door.

So I agreed. I took my dish and was going to walk with her across the floor, when suddenly someone stopped me. “Hey, I saw you on the bus,” said a tall girl in a long skirt. “I see your Jewish star necklace(项链). You should sit with us.”

At that moment I looked around. The Spanish only sat with other Spanish, the Russians always with Russians and never the Arabs with the Jews.

I knew why wars(战争) started. Everyone sticks to(坚持) his or her own kind. The lunchroom was like a map of the world. Why was everyone so blind(盲从)?

And so I didn’t go with this tall girl, but went with the first, and she was friendly to me. I built a bridge between two worlds when I sat with those different from me.
