P.T. 巴纳姆《奋斗与胜利》· Struggles and Triumphs · 领导

The same day, I met a young Englishman in the hotel, who had been travelling in Spain. During our conversation we were summoned to dinner. At the table d’hote, Simpson happened to be seated exactly opposite us. As we continued our conversation, Simpson heard it, and his attention was particularly arrested--it being something of a novelty to meet a stranger in these parts, who spoke our native tongue. The English gentleman mentioned that he ascended the Pyrenees the week previous.

白话

同一天,巴纳姆在旅馆遇到一位刚在西班牙旅行过的英国青年。两人聊天时被叫去吃饭。在餐桌旁,辛普森正好坐在他们对面。巴纳姆和英国青年继续交谈,辛普森听到了,注意力被特别吸引——因为在这种地方遇到说母语的陌生人挺新鲜。英国青年提到他上周登了比利牛斯山。巴纳姆用这个场景引出辛普森接下来可能闹出的笑话,也说明:在公共场合,你的谈吐和反应会暴露你的底细,别人也在暗中观察你。

上下文

巴纳姆在回忆录中讲述与辛普森同席吃饭的场景,为后续的滑稽冲突做铺垫。

今日一问

在公共场合,你是否注意过自己的谈吐可能被旁人观察?今天可以怎样更得体地参与对话?
