夏天的一个炎热的下午,明亮的阳光普照大地。一个又高又胖的女人正沿着街道走着。她感到很别扭,因为一个小男孩正紧紧跟着她。她开始加快速度,可是男孩也加快了速度。最后,女人停下来,转过身去看着那个孩子。
"Tell me, sorry," she asked. "Why are you following me?"
“告诉我,小家伙,为什么总是跟着我?”她问道。
"Oh, sorry, madam," said the boy, "but it's a cooler walking in the shade behind you."
“哦,很抱歉,女士,”男孩说道,“因为在你身后的影子里走很凉快啊。”
