She examined it for several moments.

她仔细地看了几分钟
"No."

"没见过"
I do not know why but I inquired again.

不知为什么我问了第二遍
"Have you ever witnessed anyone in this photograph?"

"你见过照片中的任何人吗"
"No," she said again,

"不她又说了一遍"
although the second no did not seem like a parrot but a different variety of no.

这第二个不却像是完全不一样的
"Have you ever witnessed anyone in this photograph?"

"你见过照片中的任何人吗"
I inquired, and this time I held it very proximal to her face

我问到这一次特别接近她的脸
like Grandfather held it to his face.

像祖父做的那样
"No," she said again,

"不" 她又说了一遍"
and this seemed like a third variety of no.

而这听起来又像第三种不
I put the photograph in her hands.

我把照片放到她手里
