我家鄉(xiāng)的回聲
有一次，馬克吐溫和兩個(gè)朋友坐在一家餐館。其中一個(gè)朋友說他家鄉(xiāng)山上的空氣很清潔。在許多地方，聲音的回聲以高于原來聲音的五倍返回。
第二個(gè)朋友說這不算什么。在他的家鄉(xiāng)，早晨發(fā)出的聲音，其回聲要在下午才能聽到。馬克吐溫大笑起來，然后他說：
“聽著！你們說的回聲是很不一般。但是在我家鄉(xiāng)的一個(gè)教堂，甚至有比那更稀奇的回聲?！?
“那兒的回聲有什么奇特之處？”
“好，我這就告訴你，”馬克吐溫說，“那個(gè)教堂里的回聲非常不尋常，如果有人大聲問：
‘早上好！你好嗎？’過一會(huì)兒，回聲會(huì)很清楚的回答，‘我很好，謝謝。你怎么樣？
Lesson62 The Echo in My Hometown
Twain and two friends once were sitting in a restaurant． One friend said that the air in the mountains of his hometown was very clear． In many places the echo of a voice came back five times stronger than the original voice．
The second friend said that was nothing． In his hometown the echo of a voice spoken in the morning came back in the afternoon． Mark Twain laughed． Then he said：“Listen! The echoes which you have told about are very unusual． But in a small church in my hometown there is an echo more unusual even than those．”
“What is so strange about the echo there?” asked one of the men．
“Well， I'll tell you，” said Mark Twain． “The echo in that church is so unusual that if one asks in a loud voice， ‘Good morning! How are you?’ the echo replies after a moment very clearly， ‘very well， thank you． And how are you?’”
