read the first sentence and then refuse to publish it. The article began: 'Hundreds of steps lead to the high wall
which surrounds the president's palace'. The editor at once sent the journalist a fax instructing him find out the exact number of steps and the height of the wall.
The journalist immediately set out to obtain these important facts, but he took a long time to send them Meanwhile, the editor was getting impatient, for the magazine would soon go to press.

参考译文
报刊杂志的编辑常常为了向读者提供成立一些关紧要的事实和统
计数字而走向极端。
去年,一位记者受一家有名的杂志的委托写一篇
关于非洲某个新成立共和国总统府的文章。
稿子寄来后,编辑看第一
句话就拒绝予以发表。
文章的开头是这样的:“几百级台阶通向环绕
总统的高墙。
”编辑立即给那位记者发去传真,要求他核实一下台阶
的确切数字和围墙的高度。
记者立即出发去核实这些重要的事实,但过了好长时间不见他把
数字寄来,在此期间,编辑等得不耐烦了,因为杂志马上要复印。
他
给记者先后发去两份传真,但对方毫无反应。
于是他又发了一份传真,通知那位记者说,若再不迅速答复,将被解雇。
但记者还是没有回复。
编辑无奈,勉强按原样发稿了。
一周之后,编辑终于接到记者的传真。
那个可怜的记者不但被捕了,而且还被送进了监狱。
不过,他终于获
准发回了一份传真。
在传真中他告诉编辑,就在他数通向15英尺高的
总统府围墙的1,084级台阶时,被抓了起来。
