雙語暢銷書《艾倫圖靈傳》第4章:彼岸新星(84)
His father wrote asking 'Is it wise, people will misunderstand?' which annoyed Alan, although David Champernowne thought his father had a good point.
But the immediate practical problems were soon solved.
但這個問題很快就解決了。Rossall, a public school on the Lancashire coast, had offered to take in a number of refugee boys without fee.
在蘭卡郡的海邊，有一所拉索爾公學，他們主動提出，要免費錄取一些難民。
Fred's protege Karl was going to take a place there, and this was arranged for Bob as well.
弗雷德的學生卡爾要去那裏，他們也打算安排鮑勃過去。Bob had to travel up north to be interviewed, where Rossall accepted him with the proviso that he should first improve his English at a preparatory school.
鮑勃北上參加了面試，並且被拉索爾錄取了，但有一個限制條件：他首先要在語言學校學英語。On the way he had been looked after by the Friends in Manchester, and they in turn approached a rich, Methodist, mill-owning family to take him in. (Karl was fostered in just the same way.)
在路上，有些曼徹斯特的朋友照顧他，並把他託付給一個富有的磨坊主家庭。This settled his future, and although Alan was ultimately responsible for him, and Bob always felt a great debt, he did not have to pay for more than some presents and school kit to help the boy get started.
這爲他的未來鋪就了道路，雖然艾倫只是給他一些禮物和學習用品，但鮑勃非常感激他的恩情。His recklessness had been justified, although it certainly helped that Bob was mentally as tough as Alan, having survived the loss of everything he knew, and being determined to fight for his own future education.
艾倫的衝動是正義的，鮑勃就像艾倫一樣堅強，在失去了自己的一切之後，仍然堅持爲未來而奮鬥。Meanwhile Alan was becoming more closely involved with the problems of GC and CS.
與此同時，艾倫更加密切地關注政密學校，At Christmas there was another training session at the headquarters in Broadway.
聖誕節期間還有另一場培訓，艾倫前去參加，Alan went down and stayed at an hotel in St James's Square with Patrick Wilkinson, the slightly senior classics don at King's, who had also been drawn in.
和帕特里克·威爾金森一起住在聖詹姆斯廣場的酒店裏。帕特里克·威爾金森是國王學院的資深研究員，也加入了密碼學校。Thereafter, every two or three weeks, he would make visits to help with the work.
之後，艾倫每兩三星期就會過來，幫助進行一些工作。
