注释③:这一句来自于一首儿歌,可我却查不到。我的朋友亦歌告诉我后,我真是高兴极了,谢谢他!下面是全文:Three
blind mice.See how they run!
They all ran after the farmer'swife;who cut off their
tails with a carving knife.Did you ever hear such a thing in
your life?As three blind
mice.翻译过来大致意思是:“三盲鼠,胡乱跑,瞎追农妇绝没好!三根尾,一刀斩,看你再把尾巴翘。这故事,一生中,你是否曾经听到?”尽管我是胡乱译的,但由此也知道书里后面的担心是从何而来的了。
