Trying for Years | 多年尝试

English Original

A man went to the police station wishing to speak with the burglar who had broken into his house the night before.

"You will get your chance in court," said the desk sergeant.

"No, no, no," said the man. "I want to know how he got into the house without waking my wife. I've been trying to do that for years."


中文翻译

一名男子来到警察局,希望和前一天晚上闯入他家的窃贼谈谈。

“你在法庭上会有机会的,”值班警官说。

“不,不,不,”男子说道。“我想知道他是怎么进到房子里还不吵醒我妻子的。这件事我已经努力好多年了。”
