G16 · Too/enough

Too Goes First. Enough Goes Last. Why?

Somebody has eaten too many biscuits. Nobody has eaten enough evidence.#Suspicious

Mr Brown, the caretaker, counts the tin twice, then again.

Twenty-four were baked on Monday. Nine are left.

The tin lived on top of the tall cupboard. It is on the counter.

There is a note on the lid, in pencil, in capitals.

SORRY. THE SHELF WAS NOT ENOUGH HIGH.

Suki copies it into her notebook, exactly.

“Somebody has eaten too many,” says Mr Brown.

“Somebody has,” says Suki.

One thing in the note sits the wrong way round.

She does not guess in pencil.

Mr Brown, the caretaker, counts the tin twice, then again

Alguien ha comido demasiadas galletas. Nadie ha comido pruebas suficientes.#Sospechoso

El señor Brown, el conserje, cuenta la lata dos veces, y luego otra vez.

El lunes se hornearon veinticuatro. Quedan nueve.

La lata vivía encima del armario alto. Está en la encimera.

Hay una nota en la tapa, a lápiz, en mayúsculas.

SORRY. THE SHELF WAS NOT ENOUGH HIGH.

Suki la copia en su cuaderno, exactamente igual.

«Alguien ha comido demasiadas», dice el señor Brown.

«Alguien sí», dice Suki.

Hay una cosa en la nota que está del revés.
