But when a sparkling diamond lost contact with a GPS signal it was thought to have been lost forever, leaving dozens of disappointing hunters in its wake. 六个月前这颗钻石被射向天空，找到它的人可以留下这1.2万英镑的财富。但是当带着GPS信号的钻石失去信号时，大家都认为它就永远小时了，留下一群失望的钻石猎人。 And married couple Allan and Pat Bell now have their inquisitive dog to thank for finding the perfect Christmas present while out on a walk in Lincolnshire - the missing 1.14 carat diamond. 然而已婚夫妇艾伦和帕特的狗狗却找到了最棒的圣诞礼物——失踪的1.14克拉钻石，看来艾伦夫妇得好好谢谢这只爱刨根究底的小狗了。 Mr Bell, 75, was out walking his two dogs, Rosie and Dylan, along a country path in the village of Brattleby, Lincolnshire, when Rosie 'got scent of something' and quickly ran under a hedge，'scrabbling about' for 10 minutes before dragging a package - attached to a limp orange parachute - out of the hedgerow on December 23. 75岁的贝尔先生带着爱犬萝丝和迪伦在林肯郡乡间散步时，萝丝“闻到某种气味”突然冲进草丛，在土里扒拉了10分钟，最后叼出一个系在橘色降落伞残骸上的包装。 Mr Bell said: 'I looked a bit closer and saw the package had an orange parachute underneath it and details of who to contact written on it - and I knew it must be the diamond.' |
