LONDON – Having reached pensionable age, I qualify to be a grumpy old man. I should be boring my children, and the students at Oxford University where I am Chancellor, with grumbles about how everything is going to the dogs.
发自伦敦——已经到了退休年龄的我有足够的资格成为一个糟老头。我应该会让我的孩子们以及由本人担任校长的牛津大学的学子们感到厌烦，因为糟老头对一切都看不顺眼，总有些人心不古之类的抱怨。但我本人可不是这样看待这个世界的。
