26、教育改变了他，不久他变得虚荣，对自己的身世感到羞愧。当乔来伦敦看他时，皮普并不喜欢他来。皮普对文明和绅士的内涵有着刻板的解释，而乔让他尴尬，因为乔不符合这些观念。助读讲解it是形式宾语，代替when引导的宾语从句。what引导名词性从句，作介词of的宾语。Pip is bent on becoming(下决心成为) a gentleman and winning Estellas love. Estella is a beautiful girl，and for Pip she is a symbol of education and money.What it really means to

Or，is a gentleman somebody who is kind and good to his friends？皮普一心要成为一名绅士，并赢得埃斯特拉的芳心。埃斯特拉是位漂亮的女孩，对皮普而言，她就是教育和金钱的象征。远大前程中一个重要的主题就是：做一名绅士究竟意味着什么。有很多钱的人就是一名绅士吗？或者，那种对朋友很善良、很友好的人才是绅士吗？助读讲解what引导
