10.Living alone in a foreign country can be difficult.Safety is a big problem,and I must be careful and stay vigilant (警惕的) all the time.
Boston is a strange city.It may look wonderful in one area but,just a block later,you no longer feel safe.Run-down buildings,scary-looking sculpture,and suspicious robber-like people:It makes my hair stand up to walk alone after dark.Therefore,I try to go to the city during the day and only when I really have to,I had to go there today to get some Chinese food for my presentation on Chinese snacks.
Unfortunately,I missed the 5:50train back to Andover and the next one wouldn't come for three hours.Rich,a guy I met on the way to the station,also missed the train.He said his friends would pick him up by car and could give me a ride if I wanted.I decided to accept his offer,because I thought I would be able to get home more quickly this way.
The next thing I knew,Iwas on the subway to Rich's apartment in another part of Boston.On the ride,he told me about his Scottish origins(血統(tǒng))and poor family background.I knew he wasn't the kind of"proper"guy you met in Andover.Although I trusted Rich,I didn't go up to his apartment.Entering a stranger's house is dangerous so I stayed outside and waited for his friends.It was a long wait and Rich came down to chat with me.I learned then that he had been a drug addict(癮君子)and was still a drug dealer.He showed me his parts,where he used to inject heroin.
Although he didn't make his money legally,I was sure he would not harm me.And indeed,Rich got me back to campus safely.
