P.T. 巴纳姆《奋斗与胜利》· Struggles and Triumphs · 领导
During the remainder of the voyage he was closely watched, but he was very careful to be guilty of no act of “politeness,” and he went on shore at Constantinople without so much as saying good-by to the Pasha. In Constantinople he had some very singular adventures. To carry out his purpose of getting access to the very interior of the slave-marts, he dressed himself in full Turkish costume, learned a few words and phrases which would be necessary in his assumed character as a slave-buyer, and, as the Turks are a notably reticent people, he succeeded very well in passing himself off for what he appeared, though he ran a risk of detection many times every day. In this manner, he saw a large number of Circassian girls and women, some of them the most beautiful beings he had ever seen, and after a month in Constantinople and in other Turkish cities, he sailed for Marseilles, then went to Paris, picking up many treasures for my Museum, and returned to New York, after a journey of 13,112 miles.

白话
格林伍德为了深入奴隶市场,换上土耳其服装,学了几句当地话,冒充奴隶买家。因为土耳其人话少,他居然混了过去,但每天都有好几次差点被识破。他看到了许多切尔克斯女子,有些美得惊人。在君士坦丁堡和其他土耳其城市待了一个月后,他带着为博物馆搜罗的宝贝,经马赛、巴黎回到纽约,全程一万三千多英里。这说明:想进入一个封闭领域,就得先让自己看起来像圈内人,同时保持高度警惕,随时准备应对风险。
