Two Skunks
两只臭鼬
"We have a skunk in the basement," shrieked the caller to the police dispatcher. "How can we get it out?"
“我们的地下室里有一只臭鼬，”打电话的人对警察调度员尖叫道,“我们怎样才能把它弄出来？”
"Take some bread crumbs," said the dispatcher, "and put down a trail from the basement out to the back yard. Then leave the cellar door open."

“找一些面包屑，”调度员说：“从地下室开始撒，一直撒到后院。然后将地下室的门打开。”
Sometime later the man called back. "Did you get rid of it?" asked the dispatcher.
过了一段时间，那人又打电话打了回来。“你们把臭鼬赶跑了吗？”调度员问。
"No," replied the caller. "Now I have two skunks in there!"
“没有，”打电话的人回答说，“现在地下室有两只臭鼬了。”
