外国最新英语幽默笑话精粹277：用沙盖住影子(中英)
The soldiers had just moved to the desert, and as they had never been in such a place before, they had a lot to learn.
士兵们刚刚移驻到沙漠里，因为他们以前从来没有到过这样的地方，他们要学习的东西很多。
As there were no trees or buildings in the desert，it was，of course, very hard to hide their trucks from enemy. The soldiers were therefore g2vPn training in camouflage，which means ways of covering something so that the enemy cannot see where it is. They were shown how to paint their trucks in irregular patterns with pale green, yellow, and brown paints，and then to cover them with nets to which they had tied small pieces of cloth.
因为沙漠里没有树木和建筑物，要使他们的卡车躲过敌机当然是很难办到的。因此，士兵们受训进行伪装，也就是说，要把一些东西隐蔽起来，不让敌人看到它在哪里。教官教给了他们如何用浅绿、黄色和棕色在卡车上涂上不规则的图形，然后用网罩住它们后，士兵们在网上还系了许多小布片。
The driver who had the biggest truck went to lot of trouble to camouflage it. He. spent several hours painting it，preparing a net and searching for some heavy rocks with which to hold the net down. When it was all finished, he looked proudly at his work and then went off to have his lunch.
一辆最大的卡车的司机，他为伪装汽车费了很大的力气。他花了几个小时涂画这辆车，并准备了一张网把车罩起来，同时他还找到了一些大石块来把网固定。当这一切都于完以后，他自豪地打量了自己的杰作后，就去吃中午饭了。
But when he came back to the truck after he had had his meal，he was surprised and worried to see that his cannot flage work was completely spoilt by the truck’ s shadow, which was growing longer arid longer as the afternoon advanced. He stood looking at it, not knowing what to do about it.
但当他吃完饭回到卡车旁时，发现自己的伪装效果全被卡车的影子给破坏了，他感到又吃惊又发愁，而且影子还随着下午时间的推移而越来越长。他站在那里望着影子，不知怎么办才好。
Soon an officer arrived，and he too saw the shadow, of course.
不一会，一位军官走来，他当然也看见了影子。
"Well,” he shouted to the poor driver, "what are you going to do about it? If an enemy plane comes over, the pilot will at once know that there is a truck there.”
“喂，”他对那位可怜的司机叫道:“你准备怎么办?如果敌机飞过，飞行员马上就会知道这里有一辆卡车的。”
"I know, sir,” answered the soldier.
“我明白，长官，”士兵答道。
"Whel1, don’t just stand there doing nothing!” said the officer.
“嘿!不要光站在那里发呆了!”
"What shall I do, sir`?" asked the poor driver.
“我该怎么办呢?长官?”可怜的司机问。
"Get your spade and throw some sand over the shadow, of course!” answered the officer.
“当然是拿起你的铲子，用沙把影子盖住呀!”军官答道。
