The elderly Chinese man in the small booth (售票口) behind the thick glass shook his head. I didn't need to know a word of Chinese to understand there were     beds available for the Thursday night train from Beijing to Shanghai. I had a Friday morning

    with my college friend. I must be on that train. Desperate times     desperate measures. So I squatted(蹲下). I assumed that this was the international     for “Are there any hard seats available?”

         , there were. It was seat 109. Very quickly, I found it. The Chinese man sitting in it, however, seemed to beg to differ.

I panicked. I am a man who usually avoids conflicts(冲突) and so I     my seat, as if still looking, to buy myself more time. I had two options: The first is to be a     and ask for what was rightfully mine. The second was to   23  and spend the next 13 hours staying in a corner.

Well, nine out of ten times I choose the second option. But at that moment, every square inch of          had already been claimed. There wasn’t     a corner in which to cower(退缩). So, I mustered up(聚集) some     and presented the man with my proof of ownership. He looked at my ticket and     .

About midnight my   became heavy and I was ready for the lights to dim and my date  

Ms ZZZZ to start. But the room     bright and hot. I tried to persevere and was even able to work     into a sleeping position.

It is here I must admit: I have a   bladder (膀胱). The man next to me drank a Coca-Cola, a bag of milk and a bottle of water and     the course of 13 hours he did not move once. I drank     but finally, I made my way to the bathroom at 3:02 am.

After waiting in a thick cloud of cigarette smoke, I finally used the bathroom. The philosophy(原则) of my sleeping     was right: if you get a seat on a train, don’t move.
