Honore de Balzac, the famous writer, was a man of many accomplishments (才能). In his own opinion, one of his main accomplishments was his outstanding ability as a student of handwriting. He had spent much time on this subject, and he often told his friends that he could accurately (准确的) describe a person"s character from a sample of that person"s handwriting.
One day, a woman friend brought him a sample of a boy"s handwriting. She said that she wanted to know what Balzac thought of the boy"s character.
Balzac studied the handwriting carefully for a few minutes. Then he looked at the woman strangely. The woman, however, told him that the boy was no relative of hers and that he could tell her the truth.
"Good!" said Balzac, "Then let me speak frankly (坦率地)."
He then went on to say that he thought the boy was a careless and lazy person. He added that the boy should be watched carefully, otherwise, he would grow up to bring disgrace (耻辱) upon his family.
"Isn"t that strange?" said the woman, smiling. "Because this happens to be a page from your own copybook, which you yourself used when you were a boy."
