红人自画像
我是古国迦太基的一名将军，一生中大部分时间都是在与罗马人对抗的战场上度过的。我戎马一生，获得无数辉煌的战果，最后却兵败罗马。我，汉尼拔，无悔这悲壮而坎坷的一生！
I was a general of ancient Carthage. I spent most of my life in battles against Rome. During my military life, I won numerous battles. However, I was finally defeated by Romans. But when I look back upon my heroic and bumpy life, I have no regret.
超级访问
古古这次要去访问的是一位将军。这位将军曾使罗马闻风丧胆，却在最后一场战斗中功败垂成。这位将军就是迦太基名将汉尼拔。
Today Gugu is going to visit a general, who once scared the Romans to death, but there’s many a slip between the cup and the lip, and he failed in the last battle. This is the story of the famous Carthaginian general Hannibal.
(G=Gugu H=Hannibal)
G: Hi, general! I admire your military talents so much! Could you please tell some of your stories?
H: Sure! The most impressive battle for me was to seize a large supply depot at Cannae.
G: How did you do it? It was said that Roman troops at that time were very strong.
H: Haw-haw… I was such a genius. Nobody expected that my army could cross over the Alps to attack the Romans.
G: Brilliant!
H: However, all my life I had dreamt of conquering Rome, but I never did.
G: You mean the battle of Rome City? I remember you had defeated the main Roman forces, and turned it into an isolated city. Why didn't you go on to give them a last blow?
H: It was truly a fatal mistake. I have never stopped regretting it since then.
G: You were not to blame. It happens, you know. Sometimes you win, and othertimes you fail.
H: Actually it was not an accident. The Roman soldiers were united while my army couldn't get support from the rulers.
G: Nevertheless, you're still a true hero!
古古：您好，大将军！我非常仰慕您的军事才华，您能给我讲讲您的战斗故事吗？
汉尼拔：好呀。我最得意的一次战斗是占领“罗马粮库”——坎尼城。
古古：您是怎样攻下它的？据我所知，罗马军队当时很强大啊。
汉尼拔：哈哈，我真是个天才。谁也想不到我们会越过阿尔卑斯山，出其不意地出现在罗马人面前。
古古：好厉害啊。
汉尼拔：我一生的梦想就是征服罗马，最后却失败了。
古古：您是指罗马城一站吗？记得您当时已打败了罗马的主力军，将它变成了一座孤城，为什么不给它最后致命一击呢？
汉尼拔：所以说这是我一生中犯下的最严重的错误，真是让人追悔莫及。
古古：别太自责了，将军。胜败乃兵家常事啊。
汉尼拔：其实也有客观的原因。当时罗马城士兵团结，我的军队却得不到统治集团的支持了。
古古：无论成败你都是英雄嘛。
