Think of a `locker` as a space that is yours only while you need it, and that closes. The lock is the point: you put your bag, your coat, your skates inside, shut the door, and walk away knowing nobody else gets in. How big the space is stays open — a narrow metal door in a school corridor, or a whole cold room at the back of a restaurant — as long as it is a closed space kept for storing things.

可以把 locker 想成「一個暫時屬於你、而且關得起來的空間」。重點在那個鎖:書包、外套、球鞋放進去,門一關,人就更多收起可以把 locker 想成「一個暫時屬於你、而且關得起來的空間」。重點在那個鎖:書包、外套、球鞋放進去,門一關,人就可以走開,因為裡面是別人進不去的。至於這個空間有多大,這個字並沒有規定——可能是學校走廊上一扇窄窄的鐵門,也可能是餐廳後面一整間冷房,只要它是一個關起來、專門用來放東西的地方。

關起來存放東西的空間
