Two days later, 5 took me to the factory. I imagined everyone to be friends 6 together and having fun. I even imagined there would be music and singing. I 7 I had watched too many movies as a teenager.
When we 8 the factory gate, my father spoke to the guard (门卫) and one minute later we were 9 . I walked around the factory looking at the building, the workers, and listening to the noise. It was 10 . I ran back to my father and said, “I want to go home.”
He asked me, “What do you think of the 11 ?”
