高考仔细阅读专项练习译文
George Washington 年轻时候的一些手札仍然保存完好。从这些手札中我们可以得知,当时的George Washington正在学习拉丁语言和阅读一些英国文学,并对基本的优雅社交行为深感兴趣。
在学校的学习中,George Washington好像只喜欢数学这一科。实际上,他作为一个标准绅士的正式教育是不完整的,简直简短的令人惊讶。和当时弗吉尼亚州的年轻人不同,他没有去位于弗吉尼亚州府威廉堡的William and Mary 学院。那么在正式的训练方面,Washington和其他早期的美国总统——如John Adams, Thomas Jefferson 和James Madison就有着鲜明的对比。在后来的日子里,Washington大概对自己教育的缺乏感到后悔了。无论是对于国会的商讨活动,还是其他并不是每天都常见的问题,或者一些实践性的事物,Washington始终不能轻松应对。而且因为他从没学过法语,无法和法国的领导人直接交流,所以没能去访问这个他最向往的国家。因此,和Jefferson还有Adams不同,他始终也没有访问过欧洲。
