with the goalposts straight ahead。 but all of a sudden a giant man e flyin into me and slow me down； an then all the nebraska corn jerkoff niggers an big ole dumb white boys in the world start grappin an gougin an stompin on me an i fall down。 damn！ we ain'；t got but a few yards to go fore winnin the game。 when i git off my back； i see snake got everbody line up already for the last play； on accounta we got no more time…outs。 soon as i git to my place； he calls for the snap an i run out； but he suddenly thowed the ball bout 20 feet over my head； outta bounds on purpose— to stop the clock i guess； which only has 2 or 3 seconts lef on it。 unfortunately tho； snake done got confused about things； i spose he'；s thinkin it third down an we got one more play lef； but in fact it were forth down； an so we lose the ball an also； of course； we lose the game。 it sound like somethin i woulda done。 anyhow； it was extra sad for me； cause i kinda figgered jenny curran was probly watchin the game an maybe if i done got the ball and win the game； she try to forgive me for doin what i done to her。 but that were not to be。 coach bryant were mighty unhappy over what happen； but he suck it up an say； 〃well； boys； there'；s always nex year。〃 cept for me； that is。 that was not to be either。 。。 阿甘正传（英文版）5 生 after the orange bowl； the atheletic department get my grades for the first term； an it ain'；t long before coach bryant send for me to e to his office。 when i get there； he lookin bleak。 〃forrest；〃 he say； 〃i can understan how you flunked remedial english； but it will mystify me to the end of my days how you managed to get an a in something called intermediate light； an then an f in phys…ed class— when you is jus been named the most valuable college back in the southeastern conference！〃 it was a long story that i did not want to bore coach bryant with； but why in hell do i need to know the distance between goalposts on a soccer field anyway？ well； coach bryant lookin at me with a terrible sad expression on his face。 〃forrest；〃 he say； 〃i regret awfully havin to tell you this； but you is done flunked out of school； an there is nothin i can do。〃 i jus stood there； twistin my hands； till it suddenly e to me what he is sayin— i ain'；t gonna get to play no more football。 i got to leave the university。 maybe i never see any of the other guys no more。 maybe i never see jenny curran no more either。 i got to move outta my basement； an i won'；t get to take advanced light nex term； like professor hooks have said i would。 i didn'；t realize it； but tears begun in to my eyes。 i ain'；t sayin nothin。 i jus standin there； head hangin down。 then coach； he stand up hissef； an e over to me an he put his arm aroun me。 he say； 〃forrest； it okay； son。 when you first e here； i expect somethin like this would happen。 but i tole em then； i said； just give me that boy for one season— that is all i ask。 well； forrest； we has had ourselfs one hell of a season。 that is for sure。 an it certainly weren'；t your fault that snake thowed the ball out of bounds on forth down。。。。〃 i look up then； an they is little tears in coach'；s eyes； too； an he is lookin at me real hard。 〃forrest；〃 he say； 〃there has never been nobody like you ever played ball at this school； an there won'；t be never again。 you was very fine。〃 then coach go over an stand lookin out the winder； an he say； 〃good luck； boy— now git your big dumb ass outta here。〃 an so i had to leave the university。 i gone back an pack up my shit in the basement。 bubba e down an he done brought two beers an give one to me。 i ain'；t never drank a beer； but i can see how a feller could acquire a taste for it。 bubba walk with me outside the ape dorm； an lo an behole； who should be standin there but the entire football team。 they is very quiet； an snake； he e up an shake my han an say； 〃forrest； i am very sorry about that pass； okay？〃 an i says； 〃sure snake； okay。〃 an then they all e up； one by one； an shake my han； even ole curtis； who is wearin a body brace from his neck down on accounta bashin down one door too many in the ape dorm。 bubba say he'；d hep me carry my shit down to the bus depot； but i say i'；d rather go alone。 〃keep in touch；〃 he say。 anyhow； on the way to the bus station； i pass by the student union store； but it ain'；t friday night； an jenny curran'；s band is not playin； so i say； the hell with it； an catch the bus on home。 it was late at night when the bus got to mobile。 i had not tole my mama what had happened； cause i knew she'；d be upset； so i walk on home； but they is a light on up in her room an when i get inside； they she is； crying and bawling jus like i remember。 what had happen； she tell me； is that the united states army has already heard bout me not makin my grades； an that very day a notice done e for me to report to the u。s。 army induction center。 if i had known then what i know now； i would never had done it。 my mama take me down there a few days

an yellin at everbody； an mama goes up to him an says； 〃i don'；t see how you can take my boy— cause he'；s a idiot；〃 but the sergeant jus look back at her an say； 〃well； lady； what do you think all these other people is？ einsteins？〃 an he gone on back to hollerin an yellin。 pretty soon he yell at me； too； an i git on the bus an away we went。 ever since i lef the nut school people been shoutin at me— coach fellers； coach bryant an the goons； an now the people in the army。 but let me say this： them people in the army yell longer an louder an nastier than anybody else。 they is never happy。 an
