美國老師40年同一件衣服登學(xué)校年鑒.

　　美國出現(xiàn)了一件新奇的事情，美國一位體育老師，40年檢登在學(xué)校年檢上面的照片竟然都穿著同一件衣服。相比看到這里，大家一定會(huì)覺得很驚訝，這是巧合嗎?或者還是有什么別的原因呢?

　　A gym teacher is retiring after a 40-year career - and taking his trademark yearbook outfit with him.

　　一位教齡40年的體育老師即將退休——他具有標(biāo)志性的服裝也將淡出學(xué)校年鑒。

　　Dale Irby, 63, accidentally wore the same clothes - a brown v-neck sweater and groovy white patterned shirt- for the school yearbook photo in both 1973 and 1974.

　　63歲的Dale Irby，在1973年和1974年不小心穿著同樣的棕色V領(lǐng)毛衫和時(shí)髦的白色花紋襯衫出現(xiàn)在了學(xué)校年鑒上。

　　When his wife Cathy, also a teacher, dared him to wear the outfit for the third-year running at Prestonwood Elementary in Texas, Mr Irby accepted the challenge - and ran with it.

　　Dale在德州的普斯頓沃小學(xué)教書。他的妻子Cathy也是老師，就問他敢不敢第三年還穿同樣的衣服出現(xiàn)在學(xué)校年鑒上，他接受了這個(gè)挑戰(zhàn)，然后這個(gè)傳統(tǒng)就繼續(xù)下去了。

　　Each time his picture was taken during his 40-year career, he reached for his old favorite threads.

　　在40年的職業(yè)生涯中，每次拍照時(shí)他都穿他最喜歡的這套衣服登上學(xué)校的年鑒。

　　He told the Dallas Morning News: &aposI was so embarrassed when I got the school pictures back that second year and realized I had worn the very same thing as the first year... After five pictures, it was like: &apos&aposWhy stop?&apos&apos&apos

　　他對《達(dá)拉斯早間新聞》表示：“第二年拍完照后，看完照片后我才意識(shí)到自己穿著和去年一樣的衣服去拍照，我感到很尷尬。但是連續(xù)五次之后，我想：“干嘛不繼續(xù)?”

　　because he had been instructed to smarten up instead of wearing his usual gym shorts for theschool picture.

　　他說他之所以穿這套衣服拍照，是因?yàn)閷W(xué)校要求他穿漂亮一點(diǎn)的衣服去拍照，而不要穿那些難看的運(yùn)動(dòng)短褲。

　　With each passing year, the frames change, the mustache gets a little bushier and the hair begins to grey - but the outfit stays the same.

　　每一年照片的框架都會(huì)改變，他的胡子變得越來越蓬松，頭發(fā)漸漸變白——唯一不變的就是他身上的那套衣服。

　　Mr Irby added that it is the same shirt he&aposs been using for every photograph which he can still get into - as long as he sucks his stomach in a little.

　　他還說每張照片里他穿的都是同一件襯衫，只要他把大肚子縮一縮，就都還是能穿得進(jìn)去。

　　The school principal said Mr Irby&aposs legacy would be that he taught all his school children the value of good sportsmanship and to respect others. The school gym has been renamed in his honor.

　　該學(xué)校的校長說，他給學(xué)生留下的遺產(chǎn)就是教會(huì)了孩子們運(yùn)動(dòng)精神的價(jià)值以及如何去尊重他人。為了紀(jì)念他，學(xué)校以他的名字來重新命名學(xué)校里的體育館。
