Trail路线

Ancient Rome in Modern English现代英语里的古罗马

Office, money, bread, and a turn toward the Greek school.官职、钱、面包，以及转向希腊学校的一弯。

A short civic walk. A candidate in white, a counting stone, a payment tied to salt, a person who shares bread. Then the path leaves Rome. School is a Greek word that once meant leisure, and academy is a grove outside Athens. The turn is part of the visit.

一段短的市民散步。穿白衣的求官者，一颗计数的石头，一笔与盐相连的支付，一个分享面包的人。然后路离开罗马。school 是一个希腊语词，曾经表示闲暇；academy 是雅典城外的一片树林。这个转弯是参观的一部分。
