“ I'd rather England become the 51st state of the U. S. A. than get tied up to there," said a retired civil servant with a complexion the color of ruby port.He nodded toward the steel gray Channel out the window, his pale blue eyes filled with foreboding.英国Sandgate，在距离即将开通的英吉利海峡隧道不到两英里的一家旅馆的大厅里，一向深沉内敛的英国人再也无法冷静了。 自第四纪冰川期以来，英国第一次要同法国连接起来了。
“我宁愿英国成为美国的第五十一个州，也不愿意和法国连接起来，”一位退休的英国公务员这样说，他的脸色像深色的波尔多葡萄酒一样。 他朝窗外蓝灰色的英吉利海峡望去，若有所思地点头，浅蓝色的眼睛里充满了不详的预感。
