Ⅰ. words & phrases
True eccentrics never
(故意地；谨慎地；慎重地) set out to draw attention to
themselves. They
(不顾；漠视) social (习俗；风俗) without
being
(感觉到的，意识到的) that they are doing anything extraordinary. This
invariably wins them the love and respect of others, for they add colour to the dull routine of
everyday life. Up to the time of his death, Richard Colson was one of the most notable figures in
our town. He was a shrewd and wealthy businessman, but most people in the town hardly knew
anything about this side of his life. He was known to us all as Dickie and his eccentricity had become
legendary long before he died. Dickie disliked snobs (强烈地). Though he owned
a large car, he hardly ever used it, preferring always to go on foot. Even when it was raining heavily,
he refused to carry an umbrella. One day, he walked into an expensive shop after having been caught
in a particularly heavy shower. He wanted to buy a ￡300 watch for his wife, but he was in such a
bedraggled (条件；情况) that an assistant refused to serve him.
真正古怪的人从不有意引人注意。他们不顾社会习俗，意识不到自己所作所为有什么特殊之
处。他们总能赢得别人的喜爱与尊敬，因为他们给平淡单一的日常生活增添了色彩。理查德.

对他生活中的这一个方面几乎一无所知。大家都管他叫迪基。早在他去世前很久，他的古怪
行为就成了传奇故事了。迪基痛恨势利小人。尽管他有一辆豪华小轿车，但却很少使用，常
常喜欢以步代车。即使大雨倾盆，他也总是拒绝带伞。一天，他遇上一场瓢泼大雨，淋得透
湿。他走进一家高级商店，要为妻子买一块价值300 英镑的手表。但店员见他浑身泥水的样
子，竟不肯接待他。
