ORANGES IN THE SNOW
雪中的橙子
You are a famous scientist, and you are working in a laboratory with your assistant Joe. You are doing an experiment on a small flower. It is a very special flower because it can help people to see in the dark.
你是一位著名的科学家，正和助手乔一起在实验室里工作。你们正在对一朵小花进行实验。这是一朵非常特别的花，因为它能帮助人们在黑暗中看见东西。
But then somebody takes the special flower, and you can’t find Joe. Is he the thief, or is it another person? What do you do next? Do you go to Joe’s room, or do you look in the laboratory, or do you telephone your boss? Be careful – there is only one way to find the special flower again. But move quickly – there is not much time.
但随后有人偷走了这朵特别的花，你也找不到乔了。他是小偷吗？还是另有其人？你接下来该怎么办？是去乔的房间，还是在实验室里寻找，或是给老板打电话？小心行事——找回这朵特别的花只有一条路可走。但动作要快——时间不多了。
