参照译文

报刊杂志的编写经常为了向读者供给建立一些没关紧急的事实和统计数字而

走向极端。昨年，一位记者受一家出名的杂志的拜托写一篇对于非洲某个新成

立共和国总统府的文章。稿子寄来后，编写看了第一句话就拒绝予以发布。文章的

开头是这样的：“几百级台阶通向围绕总统府的高墙。”编写立刻给那位记者发去传

真，要求他核实一下台阶确实切数字和围墙的高度。

记者立刻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

此时期，编写等得不耐烦了，由于杂志立刻要付印。他给记者先后发去两份传

真，但对方毫无反响。于是他又发了一份传真，通知那位记者说，若再不快速答

复，将被辞退。但记者仍是没有答复。编写无奈，牵强按原样发稿了。一周以后，

编写终于接到了记者的传真。那个可怜的记者不单被捕了，并且还被送进了牢狱。

可是，他终于获准发回了一份传真。在传真中他告诉编写，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。
