章节摘录

版权页:   "'What is there improper about it?' I said.'Let them ride and enjoy themselves.' "'But how can that be?' he cried,amazed at my calm.'What are you saying?' "And he was so shocked that he was unwilling to go on,and retumed home. "Next day he was continually twitching and nervously rubbing his hands,and it was evident from his face that he was unwell.And he left before his work was over,for the first time in his life.And he ate no dinner.Towards evening he wrapped himself up warmly,though it was quite warm weather,and sallied out to the Kovalenkos'.Varinka was out; he found her brother,however. "'Pray sit down,' Kovalenko said coldly,with a frown.His face looked sleepy; he had just had a nap after dinner,and was in a very bad humour. "Byelikov sat in silence for ten minutes,and then began: 'I have come to see you to relieve my mind.I am very,very much troubled.Some scurrilous fellow has drawn an absurd caricature of me and another person,in whom we are both deeply interested.I regard it as a duty to assure you that I have had no hand in it I have given no sort of ground for such ridicule-on the contrary,I have always behaved in every way like a gentleman.' "Kovalenko sat sulky and silent.Byelikov waited a little,and went on slowly in a mournful voice: 'And I have something else to say to you.I have been in the service for years,while you have only lately entered it,and I consider it my duty as an older colleague to give you a warning.You ride on a bicycle,and that pastime is utterly unsuitable for an educator of youth.' "'Why so?' asked Kovalenko in his bass. "'Surely that needs no explanation,Mihail Savvitch-surely you can understand that? If the teacher rides a bicycle,what can you expect the pupils to do? You will have them walking on their heads next!
