  • The Cemetery1 Shortcut2

    为抄近路走墓地

    Two men were walking home after a Halloween party and decided3 to take a shortcut through the cemetery just for laughs.

    万圣节派对过后,两男人图个乐呵,打算抄近路穿过墓地回家。

    Right in the middle of the cemetery they were startled by a tap-tap-tapping noise coming from the misty4 shadows.

    走到墓地中央时,他们被从迷雾中传来的“答、答、答”声惊吓到了。

    Trembling with fear, they found an old man with a hammer and chisel5, chipping away at one of the headstones.

    正当两人害怕得浑身颤抖时,他们看到是个老头拿着铁锤和凿子,在一块墓石上凿着什么。

    "Holy cow, Mister," one of them said after catching6 his breath, "You scared us half to death -- we thought you were a ghost! What are you doing working here so late at night?"

    “哇塞,先生,”其中一人喘了口气说,“你把我们吓得半死啊,我们还以为遇上鬼了呢!那么晚了你在这里做什么?”

    "Those fools!" the old man grumbled7. "They misspelled my name!"

    “那帮白痴!”老头抱怨道,“他们把我名字拼错啦!”
