Answer 1

在经过一天的辛勤工作后，一位老人深夜拉著他的马和拖车回家。当他到了离房子不远之处，车的灯坏了。他尝试把灯修好，但修不来。他的家就在附近，于是他决定车没灯也沿路走回家。他被警察看到了，就把他和马车截停。
「车的灯在哪里？」警察问。 「在夜间开马车不能没有灯。你该知道，你已经触犯了法律。」
「我的车有灯，只是刚坏了」，老人说。
「我不相信这故事」，警察说。他拿出一本簿准备写告票。「你叫什么名字？你住在哪里？」他问道。
「请不要给我发告票」，老人说，「我的房子就在那里，从这里你也看得到。我几乎全程都亮著灯。要是车没灯我怎么走得过来。」
「你一路走过来都没有灯。你叫什么名字？」
老车夫快快地抓了警察的手放在灯上。灯还是热，烫到了警察的手。警察吓了一跳，他很生气。
「现在，你说了...」老车夫说。「难道我一路走过来都没有灯吗？」

原文如下：
An old man was going home late one night with his horse and cart after a day's hard work. When he was not far from his house, the light on the cart went out. He tried but could not mend it. He was near his home, and so he went along the road without a light. When a policeman saw this, he stopped the old carter.
"Where's your light?" asked the policeman. "No one may take a cart along a road at night without a light. You know that. You've broken the law.
"I had a light, but it has just gone out," said the old man.
"I don't believe that story, " said the policeman. He took out a book and got ready to write. "What's your name and where do you live?" he asked.
"Please don't take my name, " said the old man. "My house is just there. You can see it from here. I had a light nearly the whole way. I haven't come far without a light. "
"You came all the way without a light. What's your name?"
The carter quickly took the policeman's hand and put it down on the top of the light. The light was still hot, and burnt the policeman's hand. The policeman jumped and he was very angry.
"Now, what do you think?" said the carter. "Did I come all the way without a light?"
