073 按比例缩小 Shrink in proportion

A teacher asked students to rewrite a 1500-word article to 500 words. Later,when the teacher read Scott's article,he asked,"Why did you write 45-meter-high building into 15 meters,6 cars into 2 cars,and 3 people into 1 person"

Scott said,"I shrank them based on strict proportions."

老师要求同学们把一篇 1500 字的文章缩写成 500 字。 老师看了斯科特的作文以后问:"你怎么把45米高的建筑物写成了15米,6辆汽车写成了2辆,3个人写成了1个人?"

斯科特答:"我是严格按比例缩小的。"
