But if He can do anything, He can lift the stone, I pointed out.
但是如果他是万能的，他就能搬动那块石头呀，我提醒她。

She scratched her pretty, empty head. I'm all cofused, she admitted.

Petey lay snoring in his bed, the raccoon coat huddled like a great hairy beast at his feet.
我闷闷不乐地回到了我的房间，皮蒂正鼾声如雷地睡在床上。那件浣熊皮大衣像一头多毛的野兽扒在他的脚边。
For a moment I considered waking him and telling him that he could have his girl back.
我当时真想把他叫醒，告诉他可以把他的女朋友要回去。
It seemed clear that my project was doomed to failure. The girl simply had a logic-proof head.
看来我的计划会要落空了。这姑娘对逻辑简直是一点儿都不开窍。
But then I reconsidered. I had wasted one evening: I might as well waste another. Who knew?
但是我回过头一想，既然已经浪费了一个晚上，不妨还是再花一个晚上看看。
