The Doorbell That Forgot to Update

Gustavo installs a smart doorbell on his front door. It can recognize faces and say names through his phone. He sets it up in a hurry before work.

古斯塔沃在前门装了一个智能门铃。它能认出人脸，还能通过他的手机说出名字。他上班前匆匆忙忙地把它设置好了。

Every afternoon, the doorbell says the same thing. "Sarah is at the door," it announces. But Gustavo's mail carrier is not Sarah. Her name is Uma.

每天下午，门铃都说同样的话。“莎拉在门口。”它播报道。可古斯塔沃的邮递员不是莎拉，她叫乌玛。

At first, Gustavo laughs about the mistake. He remembers now: his cousin Sarah lived in this house before him. The doorbell still uses her old photo.

起初，古斯塔沃只是笑笑这个错误。现在他想起来了：他的表姐莎拉在他之前住在这栋房子里。门铃里还留着她以前的照片。

One evening, Uma knocks and waits outside. "Sorry about the doorbell," Gustavo says as he opens the door. "It still thinks you're my cousin."

一天傍晚，乌玛敲了门，在外面等着。“门铃的事很抱歉，”古斯塔沃一边开门一边说，“它还以为你是我表姐。”

"That's a new one," Uma says. "No one ever calls me Sarah," she says with a laugh.

“这倒是头一回，”乌玛说，“从来没人叫我莎拉。”她笑着说。

Gustavo opens the doorbell app that night. He finds Sarah's old photo saved inside. He deletes it and adds a new photo of Uma instead.

那天晚上，古斯塔沃打开了门铃应用。他发现里面还存着莎拉的旧照片。他把它删掉，换上了乌玛的新照片。

The next afternoon, the doorbell rings again. "Uma is at the door," it announces this time. Gustavo smiles and opens the door.

第二天下午，门铃又响了。“乌玛在门口。”这一次它这样播报。古斯塔沃笑着去开门。
