To start, you fill in the information from clues eight and nine.
先開始，首先從第八和第九條線索開始。
Immediately, you also realize that since the Norwegian is at the end of the street, there's only one house next to him,
你立即就能發現挪威人住在馬路的第一棟房子里，在他旁邊的只有一棟房子，
which must be the one with the blue walls in clue fourteen.
通過第十四條線索推斷，第二棟肯定有藍色墻。
Clue five says the green-walled house's owner drinks coffee.
第五條線索說綠墻房子的主人喝咖啡。
It can't be the center house since you already know its owner drinks milk,
這不可能是中間的那棟房子，因為你已經知道他喝牛奶，
but it also can't be the second house, which you know has blue walls.
但是也不可能是第二棟房子，因為你已經知道是藍色的墻。
And since clue four says the green-walled house must be directly to the left of the white-walled one,
而且第四條線索說：綠墻房子在白墻房子的左邊，
it can't be the first or fifth house either.
所以不可能是第一棟或第五棟房子。
The only place left for the green-walled house with the coffee drinker is the fourth spot,
那綠墻房子里喝咖啡的主人唯一可能在的地方就是第四棟房子了，
meaning the white-walled house is the fifth.
也就意味著第五棟房子是白墻。
Clue one gives you a nationality and a color.
第一條線索給了國籍和墻的顏色。
Since the only column missing both these values is the center one, this must be the Brit's red-walled home.
只有一欄既沒有已知顏色也沒有國籍，那這個肯定是英國人的紅墻房子了。
Now that the only unassigned wall color is yellow,
現在只有一個顏色還沒有看到：黃色，
this must be applied to the first house, where clue seven says the Dunhill smoker lives.
那就肯定是第一棟房子了，線索七說抽登喜路雪茄的人就住在這里。
And clue eleven tells you that the owner of the horse is next door, which can only be the second house.
第十一條線索告訴你養馬的人就住在隔壁，那就只有可能是第二棟房子了。
The next step is to figure out what the Norwegian in the first house drinks.
接下來一步就是找到第一棟房子里的挪威人喝什么。
It can't be tea, clue three tells you that's the Dane.
不可能是茶，因為線索三說丹麥人喝茶。
As per clue twelve, it can't be root beer since that person smokes Bluemaster,
根據線索十二也不可能是樹根啤酒，因為那個人抽Bluemaster，
and since you already assigned milk and coffee, it must be water.
而且你已經分配好牛奶和咖啡了，那就肯定是水。
From clue fifteen, you know that the Norwegian's neighbor, who can only be in the second house, smokes Blends.
根據線索十五，你知道挪威人的鄰居，只有可能是第二棟房子，抽Blends雪茄。
