“啊！”我大声叫道，“如果他真想找一个人合租房间、分担租

金，我倒正合适。我觉得有个伴比独自一个人住好得多。”

Young Stamford looked rather strangely at me over his
wineglass. "You don't know Sherlock Holmes yet," he said;

"perhaps you would not care for him as a constant
companion."

小斯坦福德从酒杯上方用十分怪异的眼神看着我。“你还不知道舍

洛克·福尔摩斯吧，”他说，“也许你不会愿意和他做长期伙伴呢。”

"Why, what is there against him?"

“为什么，难道他有什么不好的地方吗？”

"Oh, I didn't say there was anything against him. He is a
little queer in his ideas—an enthusiast in some branches of
science. As far as I know he is a decent fellow enough."

“哦，我没说他有什么不好的地方。他只是有一些很古怪的想法

——他对科学的一些分支学科很狂热。不过据我所知，他倒是一个很
正派的人。”

"A medical student, I suppose?" said I.

“我猜他是个学医的吧？”我说。

"No—I have no idea what he intends to go in for. I

believe he is well up in anatomy, and he is a first-class
chemist; but, as far as I know, he has never taken out any
systematic medical classes. His studies are very desultory

and eccentric, but he has amassed a lot of out-of-the-way
knowledge which would astonish his professors."

“不是，我不知道他在钻研什么。我认为他精通解剖学，而且是一

个一流的药剂师，但据我所知，他从没系统地学习过医学。他研究的
东西杂乱无章而且古怪，但他积累的那么多稀奇古怪的知识，足以让

他的教授都感到惊讶。”
