Some of the notebooks George Washington kept as a young man are still in existence. They show that he was learning Latin, was very interested in the basics of good behavior in society, and was reading English literature.
At school he seemed only to have been interested in mathematics. In fact his formal education was surprisingly brief for a gentleman, and incomplete. Unlike other young Virginian gentlemen of that day, he did not go to the College of William and Mary in the Virginian capital of Williamsburg. In terms of formal training then, Washington contrasted sharply with some other early American Presidents such as John Adams, Thomas Jefferson and James Madison. In later years, Washington probably regretted his lack of intellectual training. He never felt comfortable in a debate in Congress. And because he never learned French and could not speak directly to French leaders, he did not visit the country he admired so much. Thus, unlike Jefferson and Adams, he never reached Europe.
What can we know about Washington from the passage?
选项
A、His lack of formal education placed him in a disadvantage in later life.
B、He should have gone to France even though he could not speak French.
C、He was not as good a president as Adams, Jefferson and Madison.
D、He was an admired model for all Virginian gentlemen.
答案
A
解析
推理判断题。从文章第二段最后四句“In later years,Washington probably regretted his lack of intellectual training…He never reached Europe.”可知,华盛顿晚年 时后悔没有接受良好的教育,他无法访问欧洲,处理日常事务时也不方便。故选A。
