词组用法解释：I ditched German and scuttled off down the Classics corridor.

其中scuttled off，the Classics corridor都不太明白？古典文学 the classical literature?

这句话出自 J·K·罗琳2008年在哈佛大学毕业典礼上的演讲

So they hoped that I would take a vocational degree; I wanted to study English Literature. A compromise was reached that in retrospect satisfied nobody, and I went up to study Modern Languages. Hardly had my parents' car rounded the corner at the end of the road than I ditched German and scuttled off down the Classics corridor.

他们希望我再去读个职业学位，而我想去研究英国文学。最后，达成了一个双方都不甚满意的妥协：我改学语言学。可是等到父母的车消失在公路的转角，我就立刻抛掉了德语，奔向古典文学的道路。

scuttle off (v.)
1.run away, as if in a panic
急促奔跑
Classics corridor
指古典文学的道路

我放弃了德语,报了古典文学。 再看看别人怎么说的。
