一位学识渊博的科学家出席了一个晚宴。当大家在饭后吸烟闲聊时,有位客人开始嘲笑哲学,并无礼地表示,他认为哲学家仅仅是傻瓜的代名词。
"What is your opinion, professor?" he asked smilingly. "Is there much distance between them?"“你的看法呢,教授?”他笑着问道。“两者之间有很大距离吗”
The professor surveyed his
boorish3 vis-a-vis keenly for a moment, then with a polite bow, responded, "Sometimes only the width of a table."教授目光犀利地把那个坐在他饭桌对面的粗鄙汉子上下打量了一番,礼貌地欠了欠身,答道:“有时两者间的距离仅仅是一饭桌之隔。”
