1--They say he has started fifteen big fires.

2--He's been in jail three times already.

1--Why did they ever let him out?

2--It's the law. They can't keep him in jail forever.

1--Why not? Everyone knows he's a firebug. He loves to start fires.

2--I don't know. Sometimes the law doesn't make sense.

1--But his latest fire killed someone.

2--This time they have charged him with murder.

1--So maybe he'll go to jail forever?

2--I sure hope so.

1--Someone should set him on fire.

2--That would teach him a good lesson.

2--這次他們指控他犯了謀殺罪。

1--那么他或許要永遠在監(jiān)獄里了？

2--我當然希望如此。

1--應(yīng)該有人放火燒他。

2--那會好好給他一個教訓。
