Mr.

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

had

Though

Mr.

Thompson

had

turned

the

lights

off

before

he

went

to

they

were

on

the

morning.

He

also

said

that

he

had

found

five

empty

whisky

which

the

ghost

must

have

drunk

the

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

pub

even

if

he

gives

it

away.

参考译文伊恩·汤普森先生最近才买的一个小酒店现在又要卖出去。汤普森先生之所以想卖它，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，家具也被挪动过。虽然汤普森临睡觉时把灯关了，但早晨灯却都亮着。他还说他发现了5只空的威士忌瓶子，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。Newwordsandexpressions生词和短语thirstythirstya.贪杯的，口渴的ghostn.鬼魂hauntv.(鬼)来访，闹鬼blockn.一座大楼furnituren.家具whiskyn.威士忌酒suggestv.暗示acceptv.接受1.
