Trying to do that for years

A man went to the police office wishing to speak with the burglar who had broken into his house the night before.

"You will get your chance in court." said the Desk Sergeant.

"No, no, no." said the man. "I want to know how he got into the house without waking my wife. I've been trying to do that for years."

我已经努力好多年了

一个人来到警察局想和昨天潜入他家偷盗的贼聊聊

警察告诉他说，“你在法庭上会有这个机会的。”

“不，不，不”，这个人说，“我就是想知道他是如何做到潜入我家并且还能不惊醒我的老婆，我已经努力好多年了都没能做到这点。”
