Three young ladies were receiving trains to be qualified detectives (侦探) by a policeman. To test their
skills in recognizing a suspect (嫌疑人), the policeman showed the first lady a picture for five seconds and then asked how she could recognize him. She thought it easy, for the suspect had only one eye. The policeman felt disappointed at this funny answer. He showed the second lady the picture for five seconds and asked her how she would recognize him. The second girl smiled, flipped her hair, and said, "Ha! It's easy to
find the one-eared person!" Her answer also made the policeman angry. Turning to the third lady, he asked, "How would you recognize him?" He added quickly, "Think hard before giving a stupid answer. " The
third lady looked at the picture carefully for a moment and said, "HMMMM . . . he is wearing contact
lenses (隐形眼镜)." The policeman was surprised and speechless, because he really didn't know himself
if the man wore contacts or not. "Well, that is a good answer. Wait here for a few minutes while I check
his file. He left the room and went to his office, checked the suspect's file in his computer and returned
with a beaming smile. "Wow! I can't believe it . . . it's TRUE! The man does in fact wear contact lenses.
Good work! How were you able to make such a wise observation?" "That's easy," the girl replied, "He
can't wear glasses because he only has one eye and one ear!"
