地道美语听力播客710: 解开谜团（双语）

Jane: You have to watch this movie. It’s so good!

简：你应该看看这部电影，很不错!

Hercule: I’m not really into mysteries.

赫克鲁：我对推理电影不感兴趣。

Jane: But this is a really good whodunit.

简：但这部电影真的是个不错的侦探剧。

Hercule: I prefer action movies.

赫克鲁：我更喜欢动作片。

Jane: Listen, the movie gives you plenty of clues, and the detective follows hunch after hunch, lead after lead, but the movie is full of red herrings. Everybody seems to have an alibi and the witnesses aren’t reliable.

简：电影给你很多线索，侦探凭借一个又一个的直觉、线索推理，但是电影确实充满迷雾。每个人似乎都有托辞，目击者也不可靠。

Hercule: I don’t know. It seems kind of confusing to me. I don’t really want to use my brain when I’m watching a movie.

赫克鲁：我不清楚，我有点搞不懂。看电影的时候我真的不想用大脑思考。

Jane: But that’s the fun part of it. The true identity of the victim is a mystery, the suspects all have skeletons in their closets, and the detective isn’t what he seems.

简：但思考是电影中有趣的一部分，受害者的真实身份是个谜，犯罪嫌疑人都有自己不可告人的秘密，侦探也不是他看起来的那个样子。

Hercule: Yeah, well...

赫克鲁：是，呃……

Jane: And just when you think you’re getting to the bottom of it, the rug gets pulled out from under you. It keeps you guessing until the very end. Hey, where are you going?

简：你认为就要看到谜底揭开了，结果又中断线索，你一直在猜想直到最后结果。嘿，你去哪儿?

Hercule: I’m going to find an action movie where all my brain has to do is handle the sensory overload!

赫克鲁：我去找部动作电影看看，我的大脑需要做的就是感官享受。
