君子gentleman[英]['dʒentlmən] [美][ˈdʒɛntlmən] 中英文故事：它来了，又走了（2） "我们一直在看钟摆，它每秒钟都摆得缓慢平稳。”年轻的说，“我朋友说，站在挂钟前保持一个小时不动很容易做到，并且伴随着钟摆的来回，嘴上再念叨着‘它来了，又走了.”太简单了，我笑了。因为，我都已经站着看一个多小时了。"你愿意赌上一把吗？”他一本正经地看着我，“如果你做得到，我给你50块。做不到,你给我50。” "50?"我很吃惊。如此小事一桩，50块钱不算少啊！ “没错。”他答 道，接着他环顾了一下空荡荡的餐馆说：“50你要嫌多的话，就赌25好 了。”他们觉得我太寒酸了，打不起50块钱的赌。这话刺激了我。“我赌100!"我咬咬牙大声说。100块可是我全部的家当啊！他二话没说，掏出100块钱交给了他的朋友。“拿着，弗伦斯，你先替我们保管着。”我也把钱交给了弗伦斯,他点都没点，就和他朋友的钱放在了一起。他真信任我，"我心里说，“是个君子。” “We were looking at the slow steady swing of pendulum as it counts the seconds,” the young one said, “and my friend said it would be easy to stand in front of the clock for one hour. To stand without moving and say, ‘Here it comes, there it goes. ’ as the clock’s pendulum swings back and fore. ” That would be easy, I laughed. Why? I have stood and watched my clock for longer than an hour. “Would you like to bet on that?” the young man said, looking at me seriously. “I will pay you 50 dollars if you can do it, you pay me if you can not.” “50 dollars?” I asked. It seemed a lot of money for such an easy trick. “Yes,” he answered. Then he looked around the empty restaurant and said, “If it is too much, we will bet only 25 dollars. ” That did something to me, so they thought I was too poor to bet 50 dollars. “丨 will bet 100 dollars,” I cried. I wished I had beaten my tongue the minute the words were out, it was all the money I had. Without another word, he brought out 100 dollars and gave them to his friend. “Here, Farence,” he said. “You hold the money for us.，’ I gave Farence my money too. He did not count it, but put it with the other money. “He trusts me,”I thought. “A true gentleman. ” 中英文例句 1. Cried the old gentleman happily. 老绅士高兴地大声说。 2.
