Nate the Great and the Sticky Case

大侦探内特和黏糊糊的案件

I, Nate the Great, was drying off from the rain. I was sitting under a blanket and reading a detective book. My dog Sludge was sniffing it.

我是大侦探内特，刚淋了雨，正把身子擦干。 我裹着毯子坐着，正在看一本侦探小说。 我的狗狗斯拉奇正凑过去嗅那本书。

I was on page 33 when I heard a knock. I opened the door. Claude was there. I lost my best dinosaur, Claude said. He was always losing things. This is your biggest loss yet, I said. A dinosaur is huge. How could you lose it? My dinosaur is small, Claude said. It is a stegosaurus on a stamp. Can you help me find it? It is hard to find something that small, I said.

我刚看到33页，突然听见敲门声。 我打开了门。 克劳德站在门口。 我弄丢了我最棒的恐龙，克劳德说。 他老是丢东西。 这可是你至今丢过的最大的东西了，我说。 恐龙可大着呢。 你怎么会把它弄丢呀？ 我的恐龙很小的，克劳德说。 是印在邮票上的剑龙呀。 你能帮我找到它吗？ 这么小的东西可难找啦，我说。

This will be a big case, but I will take it. Tell me, where was the Stegosaurus stamp the last time you saw it?

这案子虽然不小，但我接了。 告诉我，你最后一次看到剑龙邮票是在哪里？

It was on a table in my house, Claude said. I was showing all my dinosaur stamps to my friends. The stegosaurus stamp was my favorite. Who are your friends? I asked. Annie, Pip, Rosamond, and you. But you weren't there, Claude added.

放在我家的桌子上，克劳德说。 我当时正给我的朋友们展示我所有的恐龙邮票。 那张剑龙邮票是我最喜欢的。 你的朋友都有谁？ 我问道。 安妮、皮普、罗莎蒙德，还有你。 不过你当时不在，克劳德补充道。
