爱德华·博克《爱德华·博克自传》· The Americanization of Edward Bok · 领导

Edward had now become tremendously interested in the stock game which he saw constantly played by the great financier; and having a little money saved up, he concluded that he would follow in the wake of Mr. Gould's orders. One day, he naively mentioned his desire to Mr. Gould, when the financier seemed in a particularly favorable frame of mind; but Edward did not succeed in drawing out the advice he hoped for. "At least," reasoned Edward, "he knew of my intention; and if he considered it a violation of confidence he would have said as much."

白话

爱德华看这位金融巨头天天玩股票,也动了心,攒了点钱,想跟着古尔德的指令买卖。一天,他趁古尔德心情好,天真地说出这个想法,可古尔德并没给他想要的建议。爱德华自己琢磨:“至少他知道我的打算;要是觉得这算泄露机密,他早该说了。”于是他把沉默当成默许,准备动手。

上下文

博克为古尔德做速记,常接触股票买卖指令,自己也想试试。

今日一问

你有没有把别人的沉默,当成对自己冒险行为的默许?
