A Paris advertising agency wanted an art designer requiring the applicants to send three proud recent works: a line drawing a sketch and a graphic design.

A few days later the company received the application of the sculptor Rodin but there were only a line drawing and a sketch. How was a graphic design missing? They all wondered.

At this point it was found that in the envelope there was a note that read “My graphic design is a counterfeit stamp on the envelope.”

先逐字读一遍短文，不认识的不着急查词典，读完一遍，不熟悉的生词大约心中有数了，再回头仔细读一遍，有生词的部分，细读，根据上下文猜测一下意思。如果手头有纸笔不妨写下来。最好通读三遍，文章的大约意思估计也就明白八九不离十了。再逐字查阅生词，最后再对照译文，通读一两遍。还有疑难不解的地方做好笔记请教他人。
