111·公民权力
On the first day of an American history class at Purdue University,the professor assigned five chapters on civil rights. The next day, he asked one of my classmates to name ten of those rights. When the student made no response,the professor said,"ALL RIGHT. Name five. "Still the student said nothing. Finally, the exasperated professor begged,"Just name one right you have as a civilian."
在印地安那州的西拉法耶市波督大学,我上的第一节美国历史课的那天,教授讲了五章关于公民权利的课程。第二天,他叫了一名学生让他说出十条公民权利。那个学生一声没吭,教授说:“好吧,说五条也行。”那个学生仍什么也没说。最后,教授绝望地恳求道:“就说一条也成.”
To a room full of laughter,the young man replied,”I have the right to remain silent.”
对着哄堂大笑的课堂,那个学生回答说:“我有权保特沉默。”
