terrible shout and jumped out of his chair
‘So, this is the boy who bites, is it?’ he asked unpleasantly.‘I know
qingxuyang your stepfather, boy. He's a man of strong character,he is. He knows me,and I know him. Do you know me? Answer me,boy!’He pulled violently at my ear.
‘Not yet, sir,’ I answered, tears of pain in my eyes. ‘Ah,but you soon will!Oh yes, I have a strong character too,you'll see!’ He banged his hand hard on the table. I was very frightened,but I made myself ask the question I had been considering for a whole month.‘ Please, sir, I'm very sorry for what I did to Mr Murdstone. Could—could I take this sign off,before the other boys see it…’ Mr Creakle gave a sudden,terrible shout and jumped out of his chair. I did not wait to see whether he was going to hit me, but ran out of his room and hid in my bed for the next hour.
However, the boys were not as cruel to me as I had feared. I made a friend almost immediately, a boy called Tommy Traddles, who was known to be the unluckiest boy in the school. I was also noticed, and even smiled on, by the great James Steerforth,one of the oldest boys, at least six years older than me. He was
qingxuyang a handsome,intelligent, curly-haired young man, who had become an important figure at the school,with great influence over the younger boys.
