Some of the notebooks George Washington kept as a young man are still in existence. They show that he was learning Latin, was very interested in the basics of good behavior in society, and was reading English literature.
At school he seemed only to have been interested in mathematics. In fact his formal education was surprisingly brief for a gentleman, and incomplete. Unlike other young Virginian gentlemen of that day, he did not go to the College of William and Mary in the Virginian capital of Williamsburg. In terms of formal training then, Washington contrasted sharply with some other early American Presidents such as John Adams, Thomas Jefferson and James Madison. In later years, Washington probably regretted his lack of intellectual training. He never felt comfortable in a debate in Congress. And because he never learned French and could not speak directly to French leaders, he did not visit the country he admired so much. Thus, unlike Jefferson and Adams, he never reached Europe.
The reason why Washington didn’t visit France was probably that he______.
选项
A、did not really care about going
B、did not know the French leaders
C、could not communicate in French
D、was too busy to travel
答案
C
解析
事实细节题。从文章第二段倒数第二句“And because he never learned French…”可知,华盛顿从未学过法语,无法直接与法国领导人直接交流,因此没有访 问法国。故选C。
