Nate the Great and the Lost List

大侦探内特与丢失的清单

I, Nate the Great, am a busy detective. One morning, I was not busy. I was on my vacation. I was sitting under a tree, enjoying the breeze with my dog, Sludge, and a pancake. He needed a vacation, too. My friend Claude

我，大侦探内特，可是个大忙人。 有天早上，我没在忙工作。 我正在休假呢。 我坐在一棵树下，和我的狗狗斯拉奇、还有一块煎饼一起吹着微风。 他也需要休个假嘛。 我的朋友克劳德

came into the yard. I knew that he had lost something. Claude was always losing things. I lost my way to your house, he said. And then I found it. What else did you lose? I lost the grocery list I was taking to the store. Can you help me find it? I, Nate the Great,

走进了院子里。 我就知道他肯定丢了什么东西。 克劳德老是丢三落四的。 我来你家的路上迷路啦，他说。 不过后来我又找着路了。 你还丢了别的啥？ 我把要带去商店的购物清单弄丢了。 你能帮我找找吗？ 我，大侦探内特，

I am on my vacation, I said. When will your vacation be over? At lunch. I need the list before lunch, Claude said. Very well. I, Nate the Great, will take your case. Tell me, what was on the list? If I could remember, I wouldn't need the list, Claude said. Good thinking, I said. Does anyone know what was on the list? My father, Claude said. He wrote it. Good. Can you find your father?

我正在休假呢，我说。 你的假什么时候休完呀？ 午饭的时候就结束。 我午饭前就得拿到清单，克劳德说。 那好吧。我大侦探内特，就接下你的案子了。 告诉我，清单上都写了啥？ 我要是能记得住，还要清单干嘛呀，克劳德说。 说得有道理，我说。 还有别人知道清单上的内容吗？ 我爸爸知道，克劳德说。 清单是他写的。 好呀。你能找到你爸爸吗？

No, he won't be home until lunch. Can you remember some of the list? Yes, Claude said. I remember salt, milk, butter, flour, sugar, and tuna fish. Now, tell me, where did you lose the list? If I knew, I could find it, Claude said. You can't be sure of that, I said. What streets did you walk on? I'm not sure, Claude said. I lost my way a few times.

不行，他要到午饭时间才会回家。 那你能记起清单上的一部分内容吗？ 能呀，克劳德说。 我记得有盐、牛奶、黄油、面粉、糖还有金枪鱼。 那现在告诉我，你是在哪弄丢清单的？ 我要是知道在哪，早就自己找着了，克劳德说。 那可不一定哦，我说。 你刚才都走了哪几条街呀？ 我不太确定，克劳德说。 我刚才迷了好几次路呢。
