1. Fall in Love with
English爱上英语
Hiding behind the loose dusty
curtain, a teenager packed up his overcoat into
the suitcase. He
planned to leave home at dusk
though there was thunder and lightning outdoors.
He had got to do
this because he was tired of
his parents’ nagging about his English study and
did not want to go
through it any longer. He
couldn’t get along well with English and disliked
joining in English classes
because he thought
his teacher ignored him on purpose. As a result,
his score in each exam never
added up to over
60.
His partner was concerned about him
very much. She understood exactly what he was
suffering
from, but entirely disagreed with
his idea. In order to calm him down and settle his
problem, she
talked with him face to face and
swapped a series of learning tips with him. The
items she set down
helped him find the highway
to studying English well.
The teenager was
grateful and got great power from his friend’s
words. Now, he has recovered
from being upset
and has fallen in love with English.
有个少年躲在积满灰尘的松散窗帘后把大衣装入手提箱。尽管外面正打雷闪电, 他仍计划
在黄昏时分离
家出走。他不得不这样做是因为厌倦了父母对他英语学习的唠叨,不想再忍受下去
了。他的英语学习总是
无法取得进展,而且不喜欢参加英语课的学习,因为他以为老师有意忽视
他。结果,他每次考试的分数合
计从未超过60。
他的搭档很关心他,也确切地理解他遭受的折磨,但却完全不同意他的想法
。为了使他冷静
下来好好解决问题,她和他面对面地交谈,并交换了一系列的学习心得技巧。她写下来的
条款帮
助他找到了学好英语的最佳捷径。
这个少年非常很感激,并从朋友的话里获得极大的动
力。现在,他已经从沮丧中恢复过来,真正
爱上了英语。
2. Different
Countries Have Different Kinds of Englishes
不同的国家有不同的英语
Voyages of people from
England play an important part in spreading the
English language. At
present, English is
frequently spoken as an official or common
language in many countries, such as

America,
Singapore, Malaysia and some African countries.
All based on British English, the English
spoken in these countries can be well
understood by native English speakers. But
actually, these
Englishes have been gradually
changing in accents, spellings, expressions and
the usage of
vocabulary.
Because of this
fact, you can make use of the differences to tell
which country the foreigners of your
block are
from. For example, if a boss fluently commands his
driver, “Come up straight to my
apartment by
elevator and take some gas for my trucks and
cabs”, instead of requesting, “Please come
to
my flat by lift and take some petrol for my
lorries and taxis”, you can recognize his American
identity, while the latter suggests that he is
British.
英国人的航海在英语的传播中扮演了重要的角色。目前,英语在许多国家被作为官
方语言或通用
语言频繁地使用,例如美国、新加波、马来西亚和一些非洲的国家。这些国家的英语都以英
式英
语为基础,能很好地为以英语为本族语的人所理解。但是实际上,这些英语在口音、拼写、表达和词汇的使用方面都在逐渐变化。
因为这一情况的存在,你就可以利用这些英语之间的区别说出你
们街区的外国人是哪个国家来的
了。例如,如果有个老板流利地命令他的司机:“Come up
straight to my apartment by elevator and
take
some gas for my trucks and
cabs(直接搭电梯到我公寓上来拿卡车和出租车的汽油)”,而不
是要求说,“Please
come to my flat by lift and take some petrol for
my lorries and taxis(请直接搭电
梯到我公寓上来拿卡车和出租车的汽油)”,
你就可以轻易地辨认出他的美国人身份,而后者却
暗示着那是一位英国人。(请注意:听力录音里第二段
两个“电梯”的单词跟原文不一致,原文
是对的,录音弄错了,elevator才是美式说法而lif
t是英式说法。)
3. A Hard Trip
一次辛苦的旅行
My
sister was fond of traveling. Ever since
graduating, she had been determined to organize a
trip to an old temple. Since transporting fare
was expensive, she decided to use a bicycle to
cycle there
not caring about the
disadvantages. Her stubborn attitude was always
her shortcoming. Once she
made up her mind to
do something, no one could persuade her to change
her mind. Finally, we gave

in as usual
though we preferred to take a train. After we
prepared everything, including the schedule,
reliable weather forecast and the insurance,
we began our trip.
Our journey was along a
river flowing from a high altitude. Our pace was
slow because the river
frequently had many
sharp bends through deep valleys, where the water
seemed to boil. Just as I
recorded in my
journal, it was really a hard journey. But we also
enjoyed great views. One night, I put
my head
on my pillow--a parcel of wool coats, and lay
beneath the stars. When the flame in front of
our cave went out at midnight, I found the sky
so beautiful!
我的妹妹很喜欢旅行。自从毕业以来,她就下定决心要组织
一次往一座古庙的旅行。因为
交通费用昂贵,她决定骑自行车去,毫不担心其中的不利情况。顽固的态度
一直都是她的缺点,
一旦她下定决心要做的事,就没有人能说服她改变主意。最后,我们像往常一样让步
,尽管我们
更喜欢乘火车去。我们准备好了所有东西,包括时间表、可靠的天气预报,还有保险,就开始
了
旅程。
我们的旅程沿着一条从高海拔处流下来的河流前行。但我们的步伐很慢,因为当流经
深深的峡谷
时,这条河流急转弯很多,急湍的河水都似乎沸腾起来。正如我在旅行日志里记录的那样,这
真
是一次艰苦的旅行。但是我们也欣赏到了美丽的景色。一天晚上,我把头枕在一包羊毛衣服做的
枕头上,躺在星空下,当岩洞前的火焰在午夜熄灭时,我发现夜空是如此的美丽!
4. A
Horrible Earthquake
可怕的地震
Dirty water rose
in wells and canals before the earthquake. But no
one judged that an earthquake was
coming.
Suddenly, everything shook. It seemed as if the
world was at an end. Millions of brick houses
and a number of dams were destroyed. Railway
tracks became useless bars. Pipes in mines burst
and let out smelly steam. Huge cracks trapped
cyclists everywhere.
The next day, this event
was the headline or main title of all newspapers.
With the reporters giving an
outline of the
disaster, the whole nation was shocked by the
damage and the victim’s extreme
suffering.
People were moved when they read that the
survivors comforted each other by saying
“Congratulations! You survived!”. So they not
only expressed their sympathy sincerely, but also
