A OK,Sally, we have an artist here to help us. We’ll ask you questions about the bank robber you saw and Paul will draw a picture. Are you ready?
好的，Sally，這兒有個畫家來幫我們。我們將要問你有關銀行劫匪的問題,將會畫出那個人的長相。你準備好了嗎？
B Yes, hmmm. Well, he had brown hair... long hair...and he had some facial hair... was brown, too.
是的，他有著棕色的頭發(fā)……長頭發(fā)……他有些胡子……也是棕色的。
A Good! Ok, the facial hair, was it a beard or a mustache?
好的，是胡須還是小胡子？
B Both! His mustache was very short and thin, on the top of his lip.
都有。他的胡子很短，很細，長在嘴唇的上面。
A un-uh hmmm..., like this?
像這樣？
B Yes, that’s the mustache! But the beard isn’t right, mean, it didn’t cover his whole face... think it was just on his chin.
是的，是那類胡須。但胡須不對，我的意思是，胡子并沒有長滿臉，胡子只長在下巴處。
A A goatee? Was it like Paul’s?
山羊胡？像Paul的那樣胡子？
B Ah yes, that’s it, he had a goatee...
對，他長著山羊胡.
A Okay, what about sideburns? Did he have sideburns?
是連鬢胡子嗎？他有連鬢胡子嗎？
B Um, they were long and thick,like yours!
胡子又長又密，很像你的胡子。
A Alright, was this the man you saw?
好的，這是你看到的那個人嗎？
B Yes, that’s him! Hmmmmm, he looks a lot like you.
正是他。他看起來很像你。
A Hmmm, why yes he does. Paul, where were you on Friday afternoon?
確實很像。Paul，周五下午你在哪兒？
B What? That’s ridiculous! It wasn’t me! I didn’t do anything.
什么？那太可笑了。根本不是我，我什么都沒做。
