教授与聋哑人

教授与聋哑人
 

A group from Chicago spent a weekend gambling in Las Vegas. One of the men on the train won$100，000. He didn’t want anyone to know about it，so he decided not to return with others，but took a later plane home，arriving back at 3 am.

周末，有一个从芝加哥来的旅行团在拉斯维加斯赌钱。其中一个人赢了10万美元。他不愿意让别人知道，所以他决定不和别人一起回去，他乘了一架晚一些的飞机回家，到家的时候已是凌晨3点。他立刻来到房子的后花园，挖了一个洞，把钱埋了进去。

He immediately went out to the back garden of his house，dug a hole and planted the money in it. The following morning he walked outside and found only an empty hole. He noticed footsteps leading from the hole to the house next door，which was owned by a deaf mute. On the same street lived a professor who understood sign language and was a friend of the deaf man. Grabbing his pistol，the enraged man went to awaken the professor and dragged him to the deaf man’s house.

第二天早晨，他出去发现洞是空的。他看到有脚印延伸到他的邻居家里，那里住着一个聋哑人。在同一条街道上，还住着一位教授，他懂得手语，是那个聋哑人的朋友。这个人非常生气，他带了一把手枪，把教授叫醒，然后把他拖到聋哑人家里。

"You tell the guy that if he doesn't give me back my$100 000，I’m going to kill him，”He screamed at the professor. The professor conveyed the message to his friend，and his friend replied in sign language，“I hid in my backyard，under the cherry tree.”

“告诉他如果不还我10万美元，我就把他杀了!”他对教授吼道。教授把他的意思告诉了他的朋友‘他的朋友用手语告诉教授:“我把它藏在了后院的樱桃树下了。”

The professor turned to the man with the gun and said，“He’s not going to tell you. He says he he’d rather die first.”

教授转身对持枪的人说道:“他说他宁愿去死也不会告诉你。”
