雙語暢銷書《艾倫圖靈傳》第3章:思考什麼是思考(36)
It was also part of the King's attitude to life that it regarded games, parties and gossip to be natural pleasures, and assumed that clever people would still enjoy ordinary things.
國王學院的生活態度還包括，把遊戲、聚會和閒聊當做一種天然的追求，認爲聰明人一樣會對普通的東西感興趣。
Although King's had only gradually moved away from its original role as a sister foundation to Eton, there were among its dons those who made a positive effort to encourage candidates who did not come from public schools and tried to make them feel at home.
雖然國王學院只是慢慢地與伊頓公學脫鉤，但這裏的一些老師已經開始積極努力，鼓勵那些不是公學出身的學生，努力讓他們覺得像在家裏一樣自然。
There was great emphasis on the mixing between dons and undergraduates in what was a small college, with less than sixty students in each year.
它十分強調教師和學生要在學院裏融爲一體，他們每年的學生都少於60人，沒有哪個大學是這個樣子的。
No other college was like this, and so Alan Turing gradually woke up to the fact that by chance he had arrived in a unique environment, which was as much his element as any institution could be.
所以艾倫漸漸地看到，他碰巧來到了一個獨特的環境，在這個環境中，他可以最大限度地做好自己。
It corroborated what he always knew, which was that his duty was to think for himself.
國王學院爲艾倫證明了他一直以來的信念，那就是，他的責任就是爲自己着想。
The match was not perfect, for a number of reasons, but it was still a great stroke of fortune.
競爭不是個完美的機制，但它仍然不失爲一種轉機。
At Trinity he would have been a lonelier figure;
假如艾倫去了三一學院，他會覺得更加孤獨。
Trinity also inherited the moral autonomy, but without the personal intimacy that King's encouraged.
儘管三一學院也信仰道德自主，但卻缺乏國王學院所鼓勵的人際親密。
