035 Raccoons 浣熊

外国人讲：

Part of my job at the State Fish and Wildlife Department is to lend equipment to residents for trapping and relocating raccoons.A man who had been successful at capturing one of the animals called to ask whether raccoons mated for life.He said his daughter was worried that they might have separated a monogamous couple.

“I don’t know why she’s so concerned，”he added.“She’s been married three times.”

中国人讲：

我在州政府鱼类和野生动物部门工作时，负责向居民们出借捕浣熊和把浣熊送往别处的装备。一个人捕获了一只猎物，他打电话来询问浣熊是否终生只有一个伴侣。他说他的女儿担心他们可能拆散了一对终生伴侣。

他又补充说：“我不知道她为什么这么关心这事。她自己已经结过3次婚了。”
