英语脑筋急转弯:格林先生在去银行的路上碰到三个好朋友,每人都带了太太,每个太太怀里都抱着两个孩子

Q

On the way to the bank, Mr.Green met three of his friends. Each of them had his wife with him and each of the ladies had two babies in her arms. How many people are going to the bank?
格林先生在去银行的路上碰到三个好朋友,每人都带了太太,每个太太怀里都抱着两个孩子。请问共有多少人前往银行?

A

Only Mr. Green. The other people may not be going to the bank.
只有格林先生一人,其他的人不一定去银行。

点睛一笔

on the way to的意思是“在去……的路上”,in one’s arms的意思是“在某人的怀抱里”。根据题目的描述,只有格林先生(Mr.Green)去银行,其他人并没有去银行。
