　　双语阅读：英国著名“幽灵照片”被破解1(中英对照)
　　Amateur photographer Tony O'Rahilly took the snap while photographing a blaze which destroyed Wem Town Hall in Shropshire on November 19, 1995. After developing his film, Mr O'Rahilly claimed he had captured an image of a young girl wearing old fashioned clothes standing amid the flames staring into the camera lens.
　　业余摄影师Tony O'Rahilly1995年拍摄被大火烧毁的韦姆镇市镇厅时，一不留神拍到了一个幽灵般白衣女子的身影，他声称自己拍到了女鬼。
　　Mr O'Rahilly, who died in 2005, always denied doctoring the photograph - nicknamed the 'Wem Ghost' - and the image made headlines around the world.
　　2005年O'Rahilly真的去见鬼了——之前他一直拒绝检查这张女鬼照的真伪。这张照片在全球都引起了轰动。
　　But eagle-eyed Brian Lear, 77, has finally put an end to the mystery after he noticed a striking similarity between the spooky shot and a girl in a postcard which appeared in his local paper.
　　然而，77岁明察秋毫的Brian Lear老人指出，这张照片是伪造的。他说，照片上的女孩和当地发行过的一张明信片上的女孩一模一样。
　　The postcard, printed in the Shropshire Star's Pictures from the Past section, shows a street view of Wem in 1922.A young girl standing in a shop doorway on the left handside of the picture bares an uncanny resemblance to the Wem Ghost.
　　明信片上展示的是当地的街景，一个小女孩就站在一家商店外面，与女鬼照上的女孩惊人地相似。
　　Mr Lear, a retired engineer and taxi driver, from Shrewsbury, Shropshire, said: ''It is interesting to compare the two pictures.
　　Lear是一个退休的工程师兼出租车司机，他说：“对比这两张照片很有意思。”
　　"Her dress and headgear appear to be identical."
　　“女孩的裙子和头饰都是一模一样的。”
　　The 'Wem Ghost' led to a plague being placed on the newly built town hall and Wem was briefly renamed 'Ghost Town' attracting hundreds of tourists every year.
　　在很长一段时间里，新建的韦姆镇市镇厅都有闹鬼传说，这个小镇也因此发展了以女鬼为主打的旅游业。
