高考仔細閱讀專項練習譯文
George Washington 年輕時候的一些手札仍然保存完好。從這些手札中我們可以得知，當時的George Washington正在學習拉丁語言和閱讀一些英國文學，并對基本的優(yōu)雅社交行為深感興趣。
在學校的學習中，George Washington好像只喜歡數(shù)學這一科。實際上，他作為一個標準紳士的正式教育是不完整的，簡直簡短的令人驚訝。和當時弗吉尼亞州的年輕人不同，他沒有去位于弗吉尼亞州府威廉堡的William and Mary 學院。那么在正式的訓練方面，Washington和其他早期的美國總統(tǒng)——如John Adams, Thomas Jefferson 和James Madison就有著鮮明的對比。在后來的日子里，Washington大概對自己教育的缺乏感到后悔了。無論是對于國會的商討活動，還是其他并不是每天都常見的問題，或者一些實踐性的事物，Washington始終不能輕松應對。而且因為他從沒學過法語，無法和法國的領導人直接交流，所以沒能去訪問這個他最向往的國家。因此，和Jefferson還有Adams不同，他始終也沒有訪問過歐洲。
