1 老头已经80多岁了,某天一位小男孩来拜访老头,这位小男孩无论做什么都比别人慢半拍,于是老头开玩笑的说:以后你也可能比别人慢点老去。
2 晚上老头走到窗户前,看着稀稀疏疏排成一行的学生们,他当时回忆着以前一起教过的学生,然后说:
Jefferson, Jennings, Jolyon,Jupp, Kingsley Primus, Kingsley Secundus, Kingsley Tertius , Kingston... where are you all,where have you all gone to ?... Mrs. Wickett, bring me a cup of tea just before prep, will you, please?
看着这句回忆,不时的觉得伤感起来。
3 学生们把老头当成百科全书一样,什么问题都来问她,他们的目的是不仅希望得到回答,而且还希望老头在回答的时候可以说一些笑话,这样可以给他们带来欢乐。
积累:
One of the new masters, fresh from Oxford , even let the Sixth call him by his Christian name.
(与过去分词连用构成形容词)表示“新近…的”,“刚刚…的”
fresh 多和from 做搭配
例句:student fresh from college 刚刚毕业的大学生
fresh from her success at Olympic Games刚从奥与会凯旋归来的她
2 Chips did not hold with that
hold with可以替代agree
3 He had earned the reputation of being a great jester, and jests were expected of him.
