 Lesson 2 Mystery 第二课 悬疑事件

March 4 3月4日
Mr. E Shoots and Scores 投篮得分
My partner, Mr. F, played basketball with some other policemen today. 我的伙伴F先生今天和其他几个警员打了篮球,
His team was really good. 他的队伍很厉害。
The teams made a deal. 比赛的两个球队打了个赌,
The team that lost would buy the other team dinner. 输球的队伍必须请赢球的队伍吃晚餐。
He wasn't happy when he came back to his desk. 但他回到他的办公桌之时,心情并不好。
"You lost?" I asked. 你们输球啦?我问。
"Yes. Mr. J's team won. 是啊,J先生的球队赢了。
But they cheated. I'm sure of it," said Mr. F. 可是我很确定他们作弊,F先生说,
"Can you help me prove it, Mr. E?" E先生,你可以帮我证明这一点吗?
Mr. F told me about the game. F先生向我说明了球赛经过。
His team didn't score until the end of the first half. 他的队伍直到上半场即将结束之际才总算得了分。
They were shooting well, but the ball wouldn't go through the net. 他们射篮射得很准,但球却都进不了篮网。
It was very strange. 这件事实在很奇怪,
He couldn't see anything over the net. 他看不出篮框上有任何东西。
"But we finally scored. 可是我们总算得分了,
Then the second half was fine," Mr. F ended. 后来下半场就没有问题了。F先生最后这么说。
"We need to take a look at the court," I said. 我们必须去球场看看,我说。
Nothing seemed strange about the court. 球场看起来没有任何古怪之处。
Then we found a small piece of clear, thin plastic under a net. 接着,我们在一个篮网底下发现了一小片透明的塑料薄膜。
"They put plastic over your net," I said. 他们在你们的篮框上贴了保鲜膜,
"The ball tore it the first time you scored." 我说, 你们第一次得分,就是因为球压破了保鲜膜。
But how could we prove it? 可是我们要如何证明呢?
Then I saw a trash can near the court. 接着,我看到球场边有一个垃圾桶,
A big piece of plastic was inside. 里面有一大片保鲜膜。
"Mr. F," I said, "take this to Mr. J." F先生,我说:把这个拿去给J先生吧。
