Dinner Smells Good
美味晚餐
He was in his bedroom. He smelled food. The food smelled like chicken. It smelled good. A neighbor must be cooking dinner, he thought. But how could he smell his neighbor's dinner? The smell couldn't come through his apartment's heating vent. That vent was for his apartment only. So where was the smell coming from? He walked to the front door. He opened it. There was no smell in the hallway outside the door. He walked into the living room. There was no smell in the living room. He walked back into the bedroom. He could smell the food again. The bedroom was the only place he could smell the food. It was winter. All the windows were closed. How could the smell get into the bedroom? "Call up the landlord," his wife said. "Maybe he knows how. I'm just glad we're smelling chicken. I'm glad it's not fish!"
他在臥室。他聞到了食物的味道。聞起來像是雞肉。味道很好聞。他想鄰居一定是在做晚餐。但是他怎么能夠聞到鄰居家的晚餐呢？這個味道一定不是從他家的通風口出來的。通風口只供他們家用。那么味道是從哪里來的呢？他走到了前門。打開了門。門外的過道沒有味道。他走進了客廳。客廳也沒有味道。他又回到了臥室。他又聞到了食物的味道。只有臥室能夠聞到食物的味道。現在是冬天。所有的窗戶都是關著的。味道是怎么進入臥室的呢？他的妻子說，去叫房主人，或許他知道。幸好我們聞到的是雞肉，不是魚的味道。
