P.T. 巴纳姆：奋斗与胜利·补录 236
P.T. 巴纳姆《奋斗与胜利》· Struggles and Triumphs · 领导
There were a number of pretty wild young men among our passengers, and on several occasions they tried their wits upon Dr. Baird. But he was a man of sterling common sense, and with that, very quick at repartee; and they never made anything out of him. On one occasion, at dinner, they were in great glee, and, for a “lark,” they sent him their champagne bottle to drink a glass of wine with them. They, of course, supposed he was a teetotaler, as, indeed, I believe he was; but when the waiter handed him the bottle, he quietly poured a spoonful or two into his glass, and, gracefully bowing to the young gentlemen, placed it to his lips, but not tasting it. Of course, they could say nothing.

白话
船上有些爱闹的年轻人，几次想捉弄贝尔德牧师。但他常识丰富、反应机敏，他们没占到便宜。一次吃饭时，年轻人起哄送香槟给他，以为他是禁酒者会拒绝。贝尔德悄悄倒了一两勺在杯里，优雅举杯致意，却没喝。年轻人无话可说。核心是：面对挑衅，不必硬碰硬，用机智和风度化解。既不失礼，也不破例。今天遇到类似玩笑，可以礼貌回应但不被带节奏。
