Lesson47 A thirsty ghost 嗜酒的鬼魂A public house which was recently bought by Mr Ian Thompson is up for sale. Mr Thompson is going to sell it because it is haunted. He told me that he could not go to sleep one night because he heard a strange noise coming from the bar. The next morning, he found that the doors had been blocked by chairs and the furniture had been moved. Though Mr Thompson had turned the lights off before he went to bed, they were on in the morning.He also said that he had found five empty whisky bottles which the ghost must have drunk the night before. When I suggested that some villagers must have come in for a free drink, Mr Thompson shook his head.The villagers have told him that they will not accept the inn even if he gives it away. 伊恩`汤普森先生最近才买下的一个小酒店现在又要卖出去。汤普森先生之所以想卖掉它，是因为那里常闹鬼。他告诉我有天夜里他怎么也睡不着，因为他听到酒吧里传来一阵奇怪的响声。第二天早上，他发现酒吧间的门被椅子堵上了，家具也没被挪动过。虽然汤普森睡觉前把灯关了，但早晨灯却都亮着。他还说他发现了5只空的威士忌瓶子，这肯定是鬼魂昨天晚上喝的。当我暗示说一定是村里有些人来喝不花钱的酒时，汤普森先生摇了摇头。村里的人已经告诉他，即使他把小酒店白送人，他们也不要。一美女下夜班,被一色男子尾随跟踪,美女很害怕,正路过一片坟地, 色男子正要下手, 美女走到一座坟墓前说:“爸爸,开门吧,我回来了”。吓的色男子狂奔而去。美女为自己的聪明得意地笑了起来，哪知笑声未落，从坟墓里传出一个阴森森的声音说：“闺女，你咋又忘记带钥匙了呢？”吓得美女尖叫著跑了。 这时，一个盗墓者从坟墓里爬了出来，说：“影响我工作，吓死你”。突然发现墓碑前有一老者，手拿凿子在刻墓碑，就奇地问：“你在干吗”？老者生气地说：“这些不肖子孙把我的墓碑都刻错了，只自己来改啦”。盗墓者一听，吓得撒腿就跑了。看著盗墓者的背影，老者冷笑道：“跟老子抢生意，吓死你”。一不小心，凿子掉地上了，老者正要弯腰去拾，却看见从草丛中伸出一只手，同时还有个冷冰冰声音：“啊，敢乱改我家的门牌号”。吓得老者连滚带爬地跑了。一个拾荒者从草丛中爬出来，捡起地上的凿子，感叹道：“这年头，捡块烂铁还得费这么大神。 A beautiful womancomes off night duty, is tagged along after the track by a color man, thebeautiful woman is afraid very much, a right way stretch of grave, the colorman has been just about to starts, before the beautiful woman arrived at agrave, saying:“daddy, opens the door, I came back”.

（一）It was a cold night in September.The rain was beating on the car roof as George and Marie Winston drove through the empty country roads towards the house of their friends,the Harrisons,where they were going to attend a party.As they drove,they listened to the local radio station,which was playing classical music. They were about five miles from the Harrisons' house when the music on the radio was interupted by a news announcement: "The Cheshire police have issued a serious warning after a man escaped from Colford Mental Hospital earlier this evening.The man,John Downey,is a murderer who killed six people before he was captured two years ago.He is described as large,very strong and extremely dangerous.People in the Cheshire area are warned to keep their doors and windows locked,and to call the police immediately if they see anyone acting strangely." Marie shivered."A crazy killer.And he's out there somewhere.That's frightening." "Don't worry about it,"said her husband."We're nearly there now.Anyway ,we have more important things to worry about.This car is losing power for some reason --it must be that old problem with the engine.If it gets any worse,we'll have to stay at the Harrisons' tonight and get it fixed before we travel back tomorrow." As he spoke,the car began to slow down.Finally they rolled to a stop,as the engine died completely.Just as they stopped ,George pulled the car off the road,and it came to rest under a large tree. "Blast!"said George angrily."now we'll have to walk in the rain ." "But that'll take us an hour at least ,"said Marie."And I have my high-heeled shoes and my nice clothes on.They"ll be ruined!' "well,you"ll have to wait while I run to the nearest house and call the Harrisons.Someone can come out and pick us up,"said George. "But George!Have you forgotten what the radio said?There's a murderer out there!You can't leave me alone here!" "You'll have to hide in the back of the car.Lock all the doors and lie on the floor in the back,under this blanket.No one will see you.When I come back,I'll koncks three times on the door.Then you can get up and open it.Don't open it unless you hear three knocks."George opened the door and slipped out into the rain.He quickly disappeared into the blackness.Marie quickly locked the doors and settled down under the blanket in the back for a long wait.She was frightened and worried,but she was a strong-minded woman.She had not been waiting long,however,when she heard a strange scratching noise.It seemed to be coming from the roof of the car. Marie was terrified.She listened,holding her breath.Then she heard three slow knocks,one after the other,also on the roof of the car.Was it her husband?Shoud she open the door?Then she heard another knock,and another.This was not her husband.It was somebody--or something else.She was shaking with fear,but she forced herself to lie still.The knocking continued--bump,bump,bump,bump. Many hours later,as the sun rose,she was still lying there.She had not slept for a moment.The knocking had never stopped,all night long.She did not know what to do.Where was George?Why had he not come for her? Suddenly,she heard the sound of three or four vehicles,racing quickly down the road.All of them pulled up around her,their tires screeching on the road.At last!Someone had come!Marie sat up quickly and looked out of the window. The three vehicles were all police cars,and two still had their lights flashing.Several policemen leapt out.One of them rushed towards the car as Marie opeed the door.He took her by the hand. "Get out of the car and walk with me to the police vehicle,Miss.You're safe now.Look straight ahead.Keep looking at the police car.Don't look back.Just don't look back." Something in the way he spoke filled Marie with fear.She could not help herself.About ten yards from the police car,she stopped,turned and looked back at the empty vehicle. George was hanging from the tree above the car,a rope tied around his neck.As the wind blew his body back and forth,his feet were bumping gently on the roof of the car--bump,bump,bump,bump… （二）This is one of the autumn night, it was raining heavily, because the weather is very cold, cool wind blowing, streets have no pedestrian.
