亞歷山大大帝
Landon had made an unsuccessful attempt at the recitation,and the doctor,somewhat nettled,said:“Landon,you don't seem to be getting on very fast in this subject. You seem to lack ambition.Why,at your age Alexander the Great had conquered half the world.
蘭登作了一次不成功的朗誦。教授有點(diǎn)不悅,對(duì)他說道:“蘭登,你在這門課上好像進(jìn)步不大,你好像缺乏志向。亞歷山大大帝在你這個(gè)年齡可已經(jīng)征服了半個(gè)世界。”
"Yes,”said Landon,"he couldn’t help it,for you will recall the fact, doctor, that Alexander the Great had Aristotle for a teacher.”
“是啊,”蘭登說,“他沒法不那樣。教授先生,您回想一下史實(shí),亞歷山大大帝有亞里士多德做他的老師。”
