A judge asked our group of potential jurors whether anyone should be excused. One man raised his hand.
"I can't hear out of my left ear," the man told the judge.
"Can you hear out of your right ear?" the judge asked. The man nodded.
"You'll be allowed to serve on the jury," the judge declared. "We only listen to one side of the case at a time."
一位法官询问我们这群候选陪审员是否有人需要回避。一位男士举起了手。
“我的左耳听不见。”他告诉法官。
“你的右耳能听见吗？”法官问道。男士点了点头。
“你可以担任陪审员，”法官宣布道，“我们每次只听一面之辞。”
