太難拼寫 一天傍晚,一個員警回到警察局,向警官報告說他發現了一輛沒有牌照的舊汽車。 “車在哪裡?”警官問。“在 Ecclesiastes 大街,在橋的那邊。”員警回答。 警官打開報告本開始記錄。他問員警如何拼寫那條大街的名字,但是他吃不准他的拼寫是否正確。最後他覺得這個名字太難,他拼不出來。所以,他命令員警來寫報告。員警拼了半天,也拼不出來。員警戴上他的頭盔,慢慢地往外走。 “你到哪裡去?”警官問。 “回到 Ecclesiastes 大街去,”員警回答,“我要把那輛車推到 Green 大街的拐角上去。”

either . Then the policeman put his helmet on and began to
