我教國際和財經新聞,當然要知天下事,愈快愈好,愈深入愈好。最近我回內地數天,回港後第一件事便是衝進一間書店,像一隻非常飢餓的野牛,找尋牠的食物。我花了400元買了四本雜誌。雖然400元可供6個人在深圳的毛家飯店吃一頓很好的湖南菜,我覺得這四本雜誌比起一頓可口的晚飯還好味。我買的 四本雜誌是政論雜誌遠東經濟評論(Far Eastern Economic Review);談國際關係的外交事務(Foreign Affairs);財經雜誌財富(Fortune)和一本女性雜誌紅粉年代(PINK)。
你也許會問:為甚麼我會看女性雜誌?(PINK的封面是粉紅色的)。我的答案是:我們要胸襟廣闊(We must keep an open mind)。其實吸引我的是它封面的標題:商場上最成功的十五位女創新者。轉回正題:香港令我最想念的是甚麼?就是它的資訊和新聞自由。
Notes: pink=粉紅色;go pink 激動時臉色變紅;in the pink 健康狀況很好的; pick slip 被辭退時的通知信
Dear pals, I’ll start a new column on June 27 in the Standard, called “better English, wider horizons”. Have fun,
