听力材料:
No memoir can possibly be correct in every detail, but still, the Chevaliers memoir is pretty accurate overall, and is, by and large, a reliable historical source. Lets look at the accuracy of the three episodes mentioned in the reading.
所有的回忆录在细节上都会有瑕疵。但是尽管如此,塞恩加尔骑士的回忆录总体上看还是相当精确的,而且总体上说是具有史料价值的。我们看一下阅读部分质疑细节的精确性吧。
First, the loan from the merchant. Well, that doesnt mean that the Chevalier was poor. Let me explain. We know that in Switzerland, the Chevalier spent huge amounts of money on parties and gambling, and he had wealth. But it was a kind of property you have to sell first to get money. So it usually took a few days to convert his assets into actual money. So when he ran out of cash, he had to borrow some while he was waiting for his money to arrive, but thats not being poor.
首先,是向商人借债的问题。当然,这不能就说明骑士先生是平穷的。我来解释一下。我们都知道骑士先生生活在瑞士的时候把大把的钱都花在了派对和赌博上了。他是非常富有的,但是他所拥有的财产都不是现金,是需要变卖的。所以,当他的钱花光了之后,他就需要暂时借钱周转。他是在等着现金到位,而不是因为穷。
