The other day a man named William Smith went to a police 3 station. He wantedto get a license 4 to drive a car.Behind the desk in the police station sat 5 apolice captain 6. He was 7 not a very polite 8 man.“I would 9 like to get alicense to drive a car,” said 10 Mr. Smith in a low 11 voice 12. “You have tofill out this card first,” said the police captain. He threw a smallwhite card in Mr. Smith's direction 13. “Put your name at the top.” “Inink?” asked Mr. Smith very politely 14. “Of course 15, in ink!” said thepolice captain. “Put your last name first and your first name last.”

“How's that?” said Smith. He did 16 not understand the police captain.“Write your name backwards. Your last name first and your first name last. BACKWARDS!” “Backwards?” “That's right. That's just what I said!”

Slowly 17carefully 18 Mr. Smith began to write. It seemed 19 a little strange 20 tohim. But the police captain must know what was correct 21. Mr. Smith wrotehis name: HTIMS MAILLIW.


police captain 警官

backwards ? 向后地,相反地


倒着写名字

有一天,警察局来了个叫威廉姆•史密斯的人。他想办一张驾驶汽车的驾驶证。

警察局里办公桌后坐着一位警官。他不是个很客气的人。

“我想办张汽车驾驶证”,史密斯先生低声说。

“首先你必须填好这张卡,”警官说。他朝史密斯先生的方向扔过来一张白色的小卡片。“顶端填写你的姓名。”

“用墨水填?”史密斯先生很礼貌地问。

“当然,用墨水!”警官说,“先写姓,后写名。”

“怎么填?”史密斯说。他不明白负责人的意思。

“从后往前写姓名。姓在前,名在后。倒着写!”

“倒着写?”

“对。我就是这样说的!”

史密斯先生开始慢慢地、仔细地填写。他觉得这有点奇怪。但警官肯定知道怎么填写才是正确的。史密斯先生写下了他的姓名: HTIMS MAILLIW。
