on the grass until the clouds went away.
Back at school that fall，Greenberg had more similar experiences，but he didn't tell anyone.He didn't believe it was anything serious.However，his roommates－Garfunkel and Speyer－saw that he was having trouble.On the first morning of final exams，Greenberg started writing at 9 am.By 10：30，he couldn't see a thing.Doctors operated on Greenberg's eyes，but the operation didn't work.Greenberg was going blind.He was so depressed that he refused to see anyone from college.Garfunkel came around and persuaded Greenberg to go back to Columbia and offered to be his reader.The next term，Greenberg returned to school.Garfunkel and Speyer read textbooks to him，and Greenberg ended up scoring straight A's.Still，he was afraid to get around alone and relied on his friends to help him.
Then，one afternoon，Greenberg and Garfunkel went to Manhattan.When it was time for Greenberg to go back to campus，Garfunkel said he had an appointment and couldn't accompany(陪伴)him.Greenberg was shocked.They argued，and Garfunkel walked off，leaving Greenberg alone.Greenberg walked through the crowd.He took a train west to Times Square，and then changed to another train.Four miles later，he got off at the Columbia University stop.At the university's gate，someone ran into him.
