Audiobook Dictation: “Bannister was very much upset by…”

"Bannister was very much upset by the incident.

“Bannister sangat terguncang oleh kejadian itu.

I gave him a little brandy and left him collapsed in a chair, while I made a most careful examination of the room.

Saya memberinya sedikit brendi dan membiarkannya terkulai di kursi, sementara saya memeriksa ruangan itu dengan sangat teliti.

I soon saw that the intruder had left other traces of his presence besides the rumpled papers.

Saya segera melihat bahwa si penyusup meninggalkan jejak lain selain kertas-kertas yang kusut itu.

On the table in the window were several shreds from a pencil which had been sharpened.

Di atas meja dekat jendela ada beberapa serutan dari pensil yang telah diraut.

A broken tip of lead was lying there also.

Sebuah ujung grafit yang patah juga tergeletak di sana.

Evidently the rascal had copied the paper in a great hurry, had broken his pencil, and had been compelled to put a fresh point to it."

Jelas si bajingan itu menyalin soal ujian dengan sangat tergesa-gesa, mematahkan pensilnya, dan terpaksa merautnya lagi.”

"Excellent!" said Holmes, who was recovering his good-humour as his attention became more engrossed by the case.

“Bagus sekali!” kata Holmes, yang mulai pulih suasana hatinya seiring perhatiannya makin tersita oleh kasus itu.

"This was not all.

“Bukan itu saja.

I have a new writing-table with a fine surface of red leather.

Saya punya meja tulis baru dengan permukaan kulit merah yang bagus.

I am prepared to swear, and so is Bannister, that it was smooth and unstained.

Saya berani bersumpah, begitu pula Bannister, bahwa permukaannya mulus dan tanpa noda.
