One day a man was taunting1 Alexandre Dumas,the greatFrench novelist,with his ancestry2

 

“Why,” snarled3 the fellow,“you are a quadroon;yourfather was a mulatto,and your grandfather was a negro.”

 

“Yes,” roared Dumas,“and,if you wish to know'mygreatgrandfather was a monkey. In fact, my pedigree beganwhere yours terminates.”

 

56.仲马

 

有一天,一个人在嘲弄法国大小说家亚历山大·仲马,讥笑他的祖先。

 

那家伙厉声说:“唔,你是四分之一黑白混血儿,你父亲是黑白混血儿,而你的祖父是个黑人。”

 

“是的,”仲马大声回敬:“还有呢,如果你想知道的话, 我的曾祖父是一只猴子。其实我的血统起始于你的血统终止的地方。”
