I crossed the street to avoid meeting him, but he saw me and came running towards me. It was no use pretending that I had not seen him, so I waved to him. I never enjoy meeting Nigel Dykes. He never has anything to do. No matter how busy you are, he always insists on coming with you. I had to think of a way of preventing him from following me around all morning.
Hello, Nigel, I said. Fancy meeting you here!
Hi, Elizabeth, Nigel answered. I was just wondering how to spend the morning -- until I saw you. Youre not busy doing anything, are you?
No, not at all, I answered. Im going to...
Would you mind my coming with you? he asked, before I had finished speaking.
Not at all, I lied, but Im going to the dentist.
Then Ill come with you, he answered. Theres always plenty to read in the waiting room!

我穿過馬路以便避開他，但他看到我并朝我跑過來。若再裝作沒看見他已是沒有用了，我只好向他招手。我就怕遇到奈杰爾.戴克斯。他從來都是無事可做，不管你多忙，他總是堅(jiān)持要跟你去。我得想辦法不讓他整個(gè)上午纏著我。 “你好，奈杰爾，想不到在這兒見到你。”我說。 “你好，伊麗莎白，”奈杰爾回答說，“我正不知道怎么消磨這一上午呢，正好見到好。你不忙，是嗎？” “不，不忙，我打算去......”我回答。 “我跟你一道去行嗎？”沒等我說完話他就問道。 “沒關(guān)系，但我準(zhǔn)備去牙醫(yī)那里。”我說了個(gè)謊。 “那我也跟你去，候診室里總有很多東西可供閱讀！”他回答。
