翻译一段英语文段(有关魔术的)
This effect (its name often shortened to Ancaranber by enthusiasts) is a classic of card magic, and there are as many ways to do the trick as there are methods of performing it. Here we will be discussing the award-winning method of John Born, a prize-winning magician who has used his Ancaranber routine to win magic contests.
Effect
The magician places a deck of cards on a table. A spectator is asked to name a card, and another spectator is asked to name a number. A third spectator takes the cards out of the box and hands them to a fourth spectator, who deals them face down to the table while a fifth spectator counts. A sixth spectator (or the second spectators, if the supply of spectators is dwindling) calls "stop" when the selected number is reached. Someone chosen randomly from the crowd then turns the card on top of the deck over. It is the named card.
Secret
It actually doesn't matter what number is named, because every card in the deck is the selected card! Before the performance, the magician obtains a special deck of cards which has nothing but the ace of spades (spectators always choose the ace of spades). For mathematical reasons, when using a deck like this, any card counted to will be the ace of spades.
But what if the spectator chooses another card? The most common non-ace-of-spades card chosen is the three of clubs. The deck used is specially printed so that each card is the ace of spades on one side and the three of clubs on the other. If the three is selected, the magician just needs to turn the box over before letting it be opened.
But what if another card is selected? Again, the magician makes a simple adjustment. If, for instance, the queen of hearts is selected (an unlikely occurrence), the magician simply palms the deck on the table and invisibly replaces it with an all-queen-of-hearts deck. The trick can then proceed as planned.
Although this is the most elegant method of performing this effect, there are, as mentioned above, many others. For example:
The magician brings the chosen card to the top of the deck. After the number (for example, 6) is chosen, the magician says something like, "Now we're going to count to the number you choose, but just for variety sake we will count by sixes. Here we go. Six -- ah, that was quick. Here we are at your selected card."
The magician pays a couple of spectators $20 each to pick "seven of spades" and "23" during the performance. When the time comes, the magician just shuffles the seven of spades to position 23 and calls on the stooges.
After the number and card are chosen, the magician looks through the cards "to get rid of that darned 'how to play poker' card" and while doing so subtly puts the card in the right place.
The audience is hypnotized to think that the random card chose is really the chosen card
