7月4日是美国国庆节。缅因州海岸外的葛雷林岛上正在举行一次聚会。那位参议员已有几分醉意。他挽起一位年轻女郎的胳膊,离开热闹的人群,上了一辆租来的丰田小汽车。小车加足马力,疾驶在一条无名小道上。突然,汽车驶离路面,翻入湍急污黑的水流中。车身往乘客的一边倾斜,急剧地下沉。 July 4 is the United States National Day. There is a gathering going on the island of Greerin off the coast of Maine. The senator has been somewhat drunk. He rolled up the arm of a young girl, left the lively crowd and got on a rented Toyota car. Car plus full horsepower, speeding on an unknown path. Suddenly, the car drove off the pavement and turned into the turbulent, unpolluted stream. Car body to the passenger side of the tilt, sharply sinking.
