493　A Tricky Mockingbird 淘气的嘲鸫鸟

I drive a motor home as our office on wheels while we conduct truck inspections. When the motor home is in reverse, it makes a repetitive beeping noise. One quiet morning I backed the unit out of its carport and stopped alongside my regular patrol car to retrieve something. As I walked toward the car, I heard the familiar beeping sound. My heart stopped as I turned, expecting to see the $80,000 vehicle backing itself down the driveway. To my relief, the motor home was not moving. But at the top of a nearby tree sat a mockingbird perfectly mimicking the beep.

我开一辆活动房车作为我们检查卡车的活动办公室。这辆活动房车在倒车的时候会发出“嘀嘀嘀”的叫声。在一个宁静的早晨，我把它从停车棚里倒出来，停在我的正常巡逻用的警车旁边。正当我朝警车走过去拿东西的时候，听到熟悉的“嘀嘀嘀”的叫声。我的心跳都停止了，以为价值八万美金的活动房车一定是自己在后退。我转过头来，出乎意料的是车并没有移动。而在附近的一棵树的顶上有一只嘲鸫鸟，正在惟妙惟肖地模仿着“嘀嘀嘀”的叫声。
