MSN 上的一段对话— 有关楼大学生的一位老师

 
上个学期末选这学期课程时,楼大学生很兴奋的告诉我们,他选了一门由获得过诺贝尔经济学奖的教授开的课,我们听了也很高兴,能够零距离的感受大师的教诲,不是每个人都能得到的机会。昨天下午快4点时,我在《文学城》的《私房小菜〉上找菜谱呢,楼大学生回到了公寓上了网,说他课后跟诺贝尔奖教授又谈了谈,于是我们有了下面在MSN 即时通话上的一段对话:
 
娃 —楼大学生,我–老妈
 
娃: i spoke to the nobel prize econ professor today after class。we had an interesting discussion about China
 
我:  about china what?
 
娃: how china went from the most powerful nation in teh world at year 1500, but then crashed
        and talking about what drives economic growth.
        is really interesting
 

我:good,  cool

娃:i cant’ believe he is 90 years old, and his mind is so sharp.

我:老当益壮

 娃: my brain has never been pushed so hard。he just keeps asking questions, deeper and deeper

       other professor maybe satisfied with "one layer",but he just keeps going and going until i have to say "i dunno"

我:what’s his name     

 娃:Douglass C. North. he  is an advisor to GCD on economic policy and growth

 我: 名不虚传

 娃:what does that mean?

我:就是很有本事,不是假的

娃 :yeah,i guess thats one good thing about going to a good school

我: lucky
