典范英语3a课文原文1Anne’s Best FriendDo you want a friend whom you could tell everything to, like your deepest feelings and thoughts? Or are you afraid that your friend would laugh at you, or would not understand what you are going through? Anne Frank wanted the first kind, so she made her diary her best friend. Anne lived in Amsterdam in the Netherlands during World War ?. Her family was Jewish so nearly twenty-five months before they were discovered. During that time the only true friend was her diary. She said, ”I don’t want to set down a series of facts in a diary as most people do, but I want this diary itself to be my friend, and I shall call my friend Kitty.” Now read how she felt after being in the hiding place since July 1942.Thursday 15th June, 1944Dear Kitty,I wonder if it’s because I haven’t been able to be outdoors for so long that I’ve grown so crazy about ev erything to do with nature. I can well remember that there was a time when a deep blue sky, the song of the birds, moonlight and flowers could never have kept me spellbound. That’s changed since I was here.…For example, one evening when it was so warm, I stayed awake on purpose until half pasteleven in order to have a good look at the moon by my self. But as the moon gave far too much light, I didn’t dare open awindow. Another time five months ago, I happened to be upstairs at dusk when the window was op en. I didn’t go downstairs until the window bad to be shut. The dark, rainy evening, the wind, the thundering clouds held me entirely in their power; it was the first time in a year and a half that I’d seen the night face to face……Sadly …I am only able to look at nature through dirty curtains hanging before very dusty windows. It’s no pleasure looking through these any longer because nature is one thing that really must be experienced.Yours,Anne典范英语3a课文原文2the Road to Modern EnglishAt the end of the 16th century, about five to seven million people spoke English. Nearly all of them lived in England. Later in the next century, people from England made voyages to conquer other parts of the world, and because of that, English began to be spoken in many other countries. Today, more people speak English as their first, second or a foreign language than ever before.Native English speakers can understand each other even if they don’t speak the same kind of English. Look at this example: British Betty: Would you like to see my flat?American Amy: Yes. I’d like to come up to you apartment.So why has English changed over time? Actually all languages change and develop when cultures meet and communicate with each other. At fist the English spoken in England between about AD 450 and 1150 was very different from the English spoken today. It was base more on German than the English we speak at present. Then gradually between about AD500 and 1150, English became less like German because those who ruled England spoke first Danish and later French. These new settlers enriched the English language and especially its vocabulary. So by the 1600’s Shakespeare was able to make use of a wider vocabulary than ever before. In 1620 some British settlers moved to America. Later in the 18th century some British people were taken to Australia to. English began to be spoken in both countries.Finally by the 19th century the language was settled. At that time two big changes in English spelling happened: first Samuel Johnson wrote his dictionary and later Noah Webster wrote The American Dictionary of the English language. The latter gave a separate identity to American English spelling.English now is also spoken as a foreign or second language in South Asia. For example, India has a very large number of fluent English speakers because Britain ruled India from 1765 to 1947. During that time English became the language for government and education. English is also spoken in Singapore and Malaysia and countries in Africa such as South Africa. Today the number of people learning English in China is increasing rapidly. In fact, China may have the largest number of English learners. Will Chinese English develop its own identity? Only time will tell.典范英语3a课文原文3Journey Down the MekongMy name is Wang Kun. Ever since middle school, my sister Wang Wei and I have dreamed about taking a great bike trip. Two years ago she bought an expensive mountain bike and then she persuaded me to buy one. Last year, she visited our cousins, Dao Wei and Yu Hang at their college if Kunming. They are Dai andgrew up in western Yunnan Province near the Lancang River, the Chinese part of the river that is called the Mekong River in other countries. Wang Wei soon got time interested in cycling too. After graduating from college, we finally got the chance to take a bike trip. I asked my sister, “Where are we going?” It was my sister who first had the idea to cycle along the entire Mekong River from where it begins to where it ends. Now she is planning our schedule for the trip.I am fond of my sister but she has one serious shortcoming. She can be really stubborn. Although she didn’t know the best way of getting to places, she insisted that she organize the trip properly. Now I know that the proper way is always her way. I kept asking her, “When are weleaving and when are we coming back?” I asked her whether she had looked at a map yet. Of course she hadn’t; my sister doesn’t care about details. So I told her that the source of the Mekong is in Qinghai Province. She gave me a determined look -- the kind that said she would not change her mind. When I told her that our journey would begin at an altitude of more than 5,000 meters, she seemed to be excited about it. When I told her the air would be hard to breathe and it would be very cold, she said it would be an interesting experience. I know my sister well. Once she has made up her mind, nothing can change it. Finally, I had to give in.Several months before our trip, Wang Wei and I went to the library. We found a large atlas with good maps that showed details of world geography. From the atlas we could see that the Mekong River begins in a glacier to move quickly. It becomes rapids as it passes through deep valleys, traveling across western Yunnan Province. Sometimes the river becomes a water fall andenters wide valleys. We were both surprised to learn that half of the river is in China. After it leaves China and high altitude, the Mekong becomes wide, brown and warm. As it enters Southeast Asia, its pace slows. It makes wide bends or meanders through low valleys to the plains where rice grows. At last, the river delta enters the South China Sea.。

新版典范英语7(旧版6)2 第二篇Noisy Neighbours1Mr FlinchIn a grim, grey house in a grim, grey town lived an unhappy man.It was not his grey house that made Mr Flinch unhappy. It was not that he was poor, because he was not. Mr Flinch was a miser. He never gave away a penny. ( He never gave away a smile either. ) He was a mean and miserable man.Mr Flinch was miserable because of his neighbours.On one side of Mr Flinch’s grim, grey house stood a jolly red one. It belonged to Carl Clutch who mended cars.Carl loved cars – and motorbikes and vans and lorries. Every morning, Mr Flinch woke up to hear hammers banging, spanners clanging and engines revving. The whole street shook with the noise.On the other side, in a bright blue house, lived a music teacher called Poppy Plink. Each morning, Poppy sat down and played grand tunes on her grand piano. After breakfast, her students started to arrive.Violins screeched, drums thundered and bassoons bellowed. Mr Flinch shut his window, but the noise still came through the wall. Brum – brum, tootle – toot, bang! His whole house shook and shivered.He put his fingers in his ears.He rapped on the wall … but his neighbours did not hear.They were far too happy. They were mending cars and making music, and they loved their work.Brum – brum, tootle – toot, bang!Mr Flinch rap rapped until he made holes in his wallpaper. It did no good.Mr Flinch locked himself in a cupboard. He wound old towels round his head.He wrote angry letters, but tore them all u p. ‘ Stamps cost far too much money!’ he said.Even in bed, he wore a hat to keep out the noise.But the cars still revved and the music still jangled.Mr Flinch was the grey filling in a noise sandwich.‘This can’t go on,’ Flinch thought to himsel f. He even shouted it out loud:2Nasty TricksMr Flinch went next door to Carl’s house. Carl was mending cars. It was easy to sneak into his kitchen and put a dead rat in the fridge.‘That will get rid of him!’ said Flinch, and smiled a nasty smile. ‘Nobody wants to live in a house with rats!’At midnight, Mr Flinch climbed on to his roof and –carefully, carefully –crawled across the tiles. He put his head down Poppy’s chimney and gave a long, loud, ‘Hooowooowoooo!’‘That will get ride of her,’ he said with a grim grin. ‘Nobody wants to live in a house with ghosts!’Then he climbed back into bed.Next morning, Mr Flinch woke to a HUGE noise. Cars and lorries were stopping outside. He looked out of his window.Carl was sitting outside in the rood, with a table, a kettle, a loaf of bread and a bottle of tomato sauce.Carl called to Mr Flinch, ‘Can’t use my kitchen today! Rays, urgh! My mum is cleaning up. She told me to eat my breakfast outside. That’s how I got this great idea! Take – away breakfast! Drivers can stop here and buy breakfast.’Just then, Poppy Plink came running out of her blue front door. ‘Oh, Mr Flinch! Oh, Carl! Guess what happened last night!’‘I give up,’ said Mr Flinch, with a sumg smirk. ‘Do tell.’Poppy beamed wi th joy. ‘Last night, angles sang down my chimney! They did, I promise!’ She frowned. ‘But the music wasn’t very good! I think they want some new songs to sing! I’m sure they want me to write them, and I shall! Oh I shall!’She did.Poppy still had to teach music all day.But at night she wrote angle music. She made it nice and loud, with lots of cymbals and trumpets.It was all too much for Mr Flinch.3Mr Flinch has a PlanMr Flinch went next door to Carl’s house.He showed Carl a fistful of m oney. ‘The day you move house, all this is yours!’ he said.‘Anything you say, chief,’ said Carl, wiping his dirty hands on a rag.‘As long as I can mend cars, I’ll be happy anywhere.’ Carl went on, ‘I’ll move out as soon as I can sell the house!’Ne xt, Mr Flinch went to Poppy’s house and offered her a hatful of money. ‘The day you move house, all this is yours!’ he said.‘Of course! If that is what you want, dear heart! Cried Poppy.She had never seen so much money in her life. ‘As long as I have my music, I can be happy anywhere! I will move out just as soon as I can sell my little house!’Mr Flinch went home a happy man – well, as happy as a man like Mr Flinch can ever be.He felt in his empty pockets and gulped. ‘All that money gone! Ah, bu t soon those noisy neighbours will be gone, too!’In a few days, Mr Flinch’s neighbours had sold up their houses.Now, at last, he would have peace and quiet – nothing but the noise of mice scratching in the empty cellar.4 Moving DayMr Flinch watched as Poppy Plink moved out. Bo-jangle went the piano as she pushed and bumped it down the steps.‘Going already are you, you pest?’ he mutted. ‘I pity the person who has to live next door to you!’Seeing him, Poppy waved up at the window.‘Such luck, Mr Flinch!’ she called. ‘Fancy! A few days ago, I met someone who wants to move house too! We agreed to swap houses!’Just then, Carl came out of his front door carrying two heavy tool boxes. He saw Poppy struggling with a harp and went to help her. ‘All set, Poppy? he said.‘All set, Carl! Isn’t this fun!’ She replied.Then Carl moved into Poppy’s bright house and Poppy moved into Carl’s jolly red one.They helped each other to carry the big things, like tables and sofas.Then Carl had a house-warming party. He and Poppy sang, because they were so happy:‘There’s no place like home!’Mr Flinch heard it right through the wall of his house … even inside his cupboard, even with a towel round his head.。

典范英语10完整原文It was a bright sunny day, and the kids were playing in the park. They chased each other, laughing and screaming with joy. The swings were in full swing, and the sandbox was filled with tiny hands digging for buried treasure."Look, I caught a butterfly!" shouted little Sarah, her eyes wide as she held her delicate capture between two cupped hands.Over at the basketball court, a group of teenagers were practicing their shots. "Swish!" went the ball as it swished through the net, making the players cheer and high-five each other.Meanwhile, in a quiet corner of the park, an old man sat on a bench, reading a book. His eyes moved slowly across the pages, lost in the world of words."Mom, can we have an ice cream?" asked a little boy,his face already imagining the sweet coldness of his favorite flavor."Sure, honey. But only one each, okay?" his mother replied, smiling as she reached into her bag for the money.A family of ducks waddled gracefully across the grass, their tiny ducklings following closely behind. The children stopped playing for a moment to watch, their faces filled with awe and curiosity.At the other end of the park, a music festival was in full swing. The sounds of guitars, drums, and singingfilled the air, drawing passersby to stop and listen.As the sun began to set, casting a golden hue over the sky, the park slowly emptied. The kids said their goodbyes and promised to meet again tomorrow. The teenagers packed up their basketballs, and the old man.。

典范英语6-10英文原文Jellyfish Shoes(水母鞋)1Laura had some new jelly shoes.She was really proud of them. They were pink and see-through like raspberry jelly.She ran down to the beach in them. Wherever she walked, they left little tracks in the sand.Like this:'Look, Scott,' Laura called to her brother. 'My new jelly shoes are leaving stars in the sand.'Squidge. Laura trod in something slippery. She lifted up her shoe.'Ughhh!' she said.' What's that mess?''It's only a jellyfish,' said Scott.' The sea washes them up on the beach.''Well, I don't like it,' said Laura. 'It looks like a jelly cow-pat.'Slosh. The sea washed up some more jellyfish. Pink ones this time. They spread out in pink puddles on the sand.'Watch out,' said Scott.' Jellyfish can give you a nasty sting.''Yuk! ' cried Laura. 'There are loads of them! And, phew, what a pong! I hate them. They'll spoil my new jelly shoes!'Scott looked at the jellyfish on the sand. He looked at Laura's new shoes. An idea popped into his head.'I don't know why you hate jellyfish,' said Scott. 'What do you think your new shoes are made of?'Laura looked down at her shoes. They were see-through and pink. The jellyfish on the beach were see-through and pink too.'Don't be silly,' she told Scott. But her voice was shaky.2'I thought you knew,' said Scott. 'Don't you know what happens to all these washed-up jellyfish?'Laura shook her head.'I'll tell you what happens,' said Scott, who was good at stories. 'The jelly workers come round. They come round at night with bin bags. And they shovel all the jellyfish into the bags. And they take them away to the Jelly Shoe Factory.'He went on, 'And they make them into shoes. Just like the ones you've got on. I thought everyone knew that!'Laura looked down at her new shoes.'I don't think I like my new shoes any more,' she said.Then she tore them off.'Yuk!' she said.'I don't want pongy jellyfish shoes that sting me!'She threw them into the sea.They didn't sink. Jellyfish shoes don't sink. They just bobbed about on the waves. And washed further and further away from the shore.'Good riddance!' shouted Laura, waving them goodbye.Then she tiptoed back to the house in her bare feet.3That night Laura dreamed about the jellyfish workers. She dreamed they crept along the beach with bin bags in their hands. They bent down and shoveled up jellyfish. Soon they had whole shivering sackfuls of them. Flies were buzzing all around them.'Oh no!' cried Laura, waking up. 'The jelly workers are coming!'But it was all right. She was safe in her own bed. 'It was just a bad dream,' she told herself.Yet down on the dark beach, something was moving. Something was bobbing about on the waves.It was Laura's jellyfish shoes. They were coming back home.Gently, they washed in on the wave tops until at last a big wave tops until at last a big wave washed them up on the sand. Neatly side by side.'What a bit of good luck!' said Mum the next morning. 'Guess what I just found on the beach?'Don't know,' said Laura.Mum held up the jellyfish shoes. 'These! I bet you didn't even know you'd lost them.' Mum tipped up one of the shoes. A winkle fell out of the toe.'Here you are,' she said, handing the shoes to Laura. 'You can put them back on now.' Laura pushed the shoes away: 'I won't put them back on!' she shouted. 'You can't make me!'Mum stared at her. 'What on earth is the matter? I thought you'd be pleased to get them back.''I don't want them. I don't want smelly shoes that make flies buzz all around me! Why did you do it, Mum?' Why did you buy me shoes made of jellyfish?'And Laura rushed out of the door.Mum shook her head, puzzled. 'Shoes made of jellyfish?' she said. 'What's she talking about? Do you know, Scott?''Don't ask me,' said Scott. But he looked a bit guilty.4Laura rushed down to the beach without her jellyfish shoes. Scott came running after her. He had the shoes in his hand.'Mum says you've got to put them on.''No! I'm never wearing those horrible shoes again! Not ever!''Look,' began Scott. 'There's something I've got to tell you. What I said yesterday, about the Jelly Shoe Factory-'But he didn't get time to finish.'What's that?' said Laura. 'What's that in the sea?'The sea was full of tiny, frilly parachutes. They were pink and brown and purple.'They're beautiful!' cried Laura. 'What are they?''They're baby jellyfish,' said Scott. 'Hundreds of them.''Jellyfish!' Laura jumped back.'And if we don't save them,' said Scott, 'the sea will wash them up. They'll get splatted on the sand. They'll all die.''I hate jellyfish!' said Laura. 'They pong. They sting you. They get made into jellyfish shoes.''Well, I'm going to save them,' said Scott. And he raced back to the house.Laura couldn't help watching the jellyfish. They sparkled like jewels. But they were getting closer and closer to the beach. Soon they would be dried-up puddles on the sand.And she couldn't help thinking, 'Poor babies.'Just then, Scott came racing back with two buckets. And suddenly Laura changed her mind.'I'll help you to save them,' said Laura. She grabbed a bucket.'We'll tip them into that rock pool,' said Scott. 'But we've got to hurry!''Don't touch them,' he warned. 'Even the babies sting.'They scooped up the babies in buckets. Then they ran to the rock pool and tipped them in.'Hurry!' cried Scott. 'The sea's going out!'5Laura dashed to the rock pool. Slosh! The babies poured out like rainbows.She ran back again and again. Until her legs wouldn't work any more.'I-can't-run-another-step!' she gasped, setting down on the sand.'It's all right,' said Scott. 'Look! The tide's coming in!'Laura lifted her head. It was true!'Hurray! She yelled. 'We've saved them. We saved the jellyfish babies!'Scott and Laura went to look in the rock pool.'It's like jellyfish soup in there!' said Laura.'But they're safe,' said Scott. 'And when the tide comes in, it'll take them out to the deep, deep sea-where they belong.''I like jellyfish now,' said Laura. 'They're beautiful, aren't they? I'm really glad we saved them. And now the jelly worker won't get them. They won't be taken to the Jelly Shoe Factory and made into jellyfish shoes.'Scott looked very guilty.'I was going to tell you about that,' he said. 'There isn't any jelly shoe Factory. 'There isn't any jelly workers. They don't make jelly shoes out of washed-up jellyfish.' 'How do you know?' said Laura.'Because it's just a story. I made it all up!''No you didn't !' said Laura.'I did, I did, honest!' said Scott.But Laura didn't believe him.'Where are my jellyfish shoes anyway?' she asked Scott.Scott looked around. 'I don't know. I put them down when I went to get the buckets. They can't have walked off by themselves…'Laura looked around too. The beach was empty. Then she saw a line of stars, in the sand.They led right down to the sea.'There they are!' Scott pointed.Laura saw her jellyfish shoes. They were bobbing about on the waves. They were heading out to sea.Scott waded into the water. 'I'm going to get them back!' he said.Laura thought for a minute. Then she said, 'No. Let them go.'She waved at them. 'Bye bye, jellyfish shoes,' she said, a little sadly.'What are you going to tell Mum?' asked Scott. 'She'll be very angry!'But Laura wasn't listening. She was smiling a secret smile. She was thinking about her jellyfish shoes having a lovely time… swimming with whales and dolphins and octopuses…back in the deep, deep sea where they belonged.。

典范英语6 全篇原文1 第一篇Walrus Joins In1What will Walrus do?Everyone at the North Pole was very excited. There was going to be a show and ANYONE could be in it.‘I will do skating,’ said Arctic Fox. ‘I’m good at that!’‘I’ll do tumbling,’ said Polar Bear. ‘No one tumbles quite like me!’‘I’ll do singing,’ said Seal. ‘Everyone says I have a very fine voice!’‘Then I’ll do diving,’ said Whale. ‘I won a prize for diving at school, you know!’They all looked at Walrus. ‘What will YOU do?’ they asked.But Walrus was not good at anything.He wasn’t good at skating, and he wasn’t good at tumbling.He was terrible at singing, and when he tried to dive, he always got water up his nose.He sat and chewed his whiskers sadly.‘Never mind,’ said Arctic Fox. ‘You can watch us.’Arctic Fox and Polar Bear and Seal and Whale practised hard for the big show.Walrus hid behind a snowdrift and watched, and chewed his whiskers.He wished he was good at something.2The big nightAt last, the big night arrived. Everyone sat down and waited for the show to begin. Walrus sat in the front row. He was very excited.Fox came onto the ice and bowed. Everyone cheered.Then Fox began to skate. Fox skated forwards and backwards and sideways. She skated in perfect circles and figures of eight. She was elegant and amazing!Walrus watched and he loved what he saw. Fox made it all look so easy.Walrus was sure that if he really tried he could skate just like Fox.He couldn’t stop himself. He just had to lea p onto the ice and join in with Fox. “I can skate,” he cried. “Look at me!”But Walrus couldn’t skate at all. He could only trip up and fall over.He bumped into Fox, and Fox went flat on her face. FLOMP!Fox was very upset. “Walrus has RUINED my act,” she wailed.Next, it was Polar Bear’s turn. He rolled out across the ice like a big, white snowball. Everyone clapped wildly.Then Polar Bear began to tumble. He did jumps and spins and somersaults, and stood on his head.Walrus watched and he loved what he saw. Polar Bear made it all looksuch fun. Walrus was sure that this time, if he really tried, he could tumble just like Polar Bear.All of a sudden, Walrus just couldn’t stop himself, and he leaped onto the ice.“I can tumble too,” he cried. “Look at me!”But Walrus couldn’t tumble at all. He could only trip up and fall over. He tripped up Polar Bear, who came down with a WALLOP!Of course, Polar Bear was pretty angry. “Walrus has RUINED my act,” he wailed.3From bad to worseIt was Seal’s turn next. She gave Walrus a don’t-you-dare stare, and then she started to sing:“O, how many heart rejoices when I see the Northern Lights.My ear is filled with voices sweetly singing in the night!”Walrus listened. What a beautiful song! Surely if he really tried, he could sing as beautifully as Seal? Oh, dear. Walrus just couldn’t stop himself again.“I know that song,” he cried. “I can sing it too!”He leaped up and started singing along with Seal.But Walrus couldn’t sing! He sounde d terrible. In fact, he sounded like a rusty old bucket.Seal stopped singing and burst into floods of tears.“Walrus has RUINED my song,” she wailed.Wale was last. He was pretty certain that Walrus could not ruin his act.Whale leaped high out of the water. Then he fell back with an enormous splash!Walrus watched. He wished that he could dive like that. His flippers began to twitch, and his whiskers bristled with excitement. He tried and tried his very best not to join in.But then he had a brilliant idea.“I’ll hold my nose when I dive,” he thought. “Then the water won’t go up it!”Walrus just couldn’t stop himself. He had to join in.“Everybody, look at me!” he cried, as he leaped into the water. “I can dive too!”But just at that moment, Whale was getting ready to spout a big jet of water.WHOOSH!Whale spouted Walrus high into the air!Everyone was watching Walrus now. They clapped and cheered as Walrus landed back in the sea with a SPLOSH!Whale was furious. “You are a meddling, incompetent BUFFOON!” he roared. “You have RUINED my act. Now GET OUT OF MY SIGHT!”Whale was pretty scary when he was angry. Walrus turned tail and fled. He hid behind a snowdrift, feeling sad and very sorry.4The show will go on!The show was over. Fox and Polar Bear and Seal and Whale stood in a line, blushing and wishing that Walrus had not ruined everything.But everyone was cheering like mad.“Well done, Polar Bear, well done, Seal! Well done, Fox and Whale!” they shouted. “But where’s the clown? Why isn’t he here? Where’s Walrus?”Behind is snowdrift, Walrus heard the cheers. Were they really cheering for him, too?Yes! They were!He shuffled up to Fox and Polar Bear and Seal And Whale.“I’m very sorry,” he said.“So you should be,” said Fox.“At least everyone thought you were part of the show,” said Polar Bear.“I suppose,” said Seal, “if Walrus was really part of our next show, it couldn’t be any worse.”Walrus was overjoyed. “Me?” he cried. “Truly? Can I be part of t he show? Can I join in next time?”“Yes,” said Whale. “It will bea lot safer that way. You can be the clown. As long as you do it properly.”Walrus practiced hard and became a very good clown indeed. Now he is so good that Fox, Polar Bear, Seal and Whale are glad he is taking part.Sometimes, when Walrus is clowning around, they really just can’t stop themselves. They have to join in too!2 第二篇Noisy Neighbours1Mr FlinchIn a grim, grey house in a grim, grey town lived an unhappy man.It was not his grey house that made Mr Flinch unhappy.

He saw Poppy struggling with a harp and went to help her. ‘All set, Poppy? he said.‘All set, Carl! Isn’t this fun!’ She replied.Then Carl moved into Poppy’s bright house and Poppy moved into Carl’s jolly red one.They helped each other to carry the big things, like tables and sofas.Then Carl had a house-warming party. He and Poppy sang, because they were so happy: ‘There’s no place like home!’Mr Flinch heard it right thro ugh the wall of his house … even inside his cupboard, even with a towel round his head.3 第三篇Princess Pip’s Holiday1 Ready to goEveryone in Princess Pip’s castle was very busy. The King was polishing his money, the Queen was choosing sun hats, and the maids were running around with piles of vests.“ Can I take Dobbin on holiday?”asked Princess Pip.“I’m afraid there won’t be room for a pony on the coach ,”said the Queen.“Oh, ”said the Princess Pip. “Can Amanda and Bert come,then?”“There ‘s no room for snakes,”said the King, “not even pet ones.”Princess Pip scowled . “This holiday is going to be BORING,” she said.They went on holiday in their best gold coach.“Wave to all the people, dear,” said the Queen.Princess Pip folded her arm s . “ I ‘m on holiday,” she said. “Are we nearly there yet?”“We won’t be there for a long time,” said the Queen firmly .It did take a long time to get to the seaside . The coach got very hot, and Princess Pip didn’t feel very well.“Here we are,at last!” said the King happily.“But it’s a castle!” said Princess Pip. “Just like home.It’s BORING.”2 Just like homeThere was a girl waiting by the castle door.“This is Daisy,”said the Queen. “She is going to look after you,Pip.”Daisy showed Princess Pip her room.“I don’t want a four-poster bed!” said Princess Pip. “That’s just like home.”“You can sleep on my straw mattress , then,” said Daisy. “ I’ll have the bed.”“Oh, all right.”said Princess Pip.That evening there was a banquet and it went on for hours.“More sprouts?”asked the King happily.This is BORING,”said the Princess Pip.“Nonsense(胡说),dear,”said the Queen. “It can’t be boring. We’re on holiday!”“ I WANT TO GO HOME!” said Princess Pip, the next day. She had been w alking round the castle walls all morning and she hadn’t found anything to do.“But we’re having a wonderful time,” said the Queen,from her sun chair.“Just look at the way my money shines in the sun,” said the King. “Wonderful!”“ But it’s BORING!” said Princess Pip.“Why don’t you go and talk to Daisy?” suggested the Queen.Princess Pip stomped off.“That does it,” she said to Daisy. “I WANT TO GO HOME!”3 The road home“If you stayed here a bit longer,you might start liking the seaside,” saidDaisy.But Princess Pip wasn’t listening. She was putting all her important things in her suitcase.“I think we’ll have to take some things out,”said Daisy.Daisy found them both backpacks, and they set out for home.Princess Pip and Daisy went across the drawbridge and along the road.It was very hot.“Let’s have a nice,cool snack,”said Daisy.So they got some fish sticks from a stall.“These aren’t bad,” admitted Princess Pip.“They taste best by the seaside,” said Daisy. “ I’ll sho w you where the fish come from, if you like.”They went down some stone steps to a place where the sea swished backwards and forwards and the ground looked as if it was made of gold.“Look in these pools,” said Daisy.The fish were hard to catch.”You could take your stockings off,” said Daisy, “and use them for nets.”It was nice without shoes and stockings on. It was even nicer once Princess Pip had taken off her coat and crown.The fish looked very cross at being caught,so Princess Pip let them go.“It’s not too bad here,” said Princess Pip,at last. “ I want to stay here all the time.”“Let’s build a sandcastle, then,” said Daisy.“A sand HOUSE,” said Princess Pip.It was hard work, but they built a huge house, with a moat all around.Soon the sea came in and filled the moat.“That’s just right.”said Princess Pip. “Make it stop coming in now,Daisy.”But the sea kept on coming in............ and soon it had washed their house FLAT.“ We built our house too close to the sea,”s aid Daisy, sadly.“STUPID SEA!”shouted Princess Pip. “STUPID SEASIDE! I WANT TO GO HOME!”4 Riding the dragonPrincess Pip and Daisy put on their shoes and picked up their backpacks.“I’m tired,”said Princess Pip, very soon. “ I want to ride Dobbi n. Are we nearly home, yet?”“Why don’t you ride one of the horses on that merry-go-round?” suggested Daisy.“Oh, no,”said Princess Pip. “ I’m going to ride that dragon.”The dragon went very fast, and there was lots of exciting music--but then it all stopped. Everyone got off.“But....we’re still here!” said Princess Pip, crossly, as she got off ,too.“At least it wasn’t boring,” said Daisy.“I WANT TO GO HOME!” shouted Princess Pip.“At least it was fun,” said Daisy. “Everything is fun here because it’s a FUN-fair.”Princess Pip sniffed. “ What’s fun about it?” she asked.“I’ll show you,” said Daisy.They went down the roller coaster.Then they went UP and UP and ....DOWN again.“AARRRRGH!” yelled Princess Pip and Daisy.“Let’s go on it again,” said Princess Pip.“ Tomorrow, perhaps,” said Daisy, who had gone very pale.“BUT I WANT...” began Princess Pip.“Hello!” said a voice.It was the King. The Queen was with him.“Where’s Princess Pip?” the King asked Daisy.“Here !” said Princess Pip.The King and the Queen stared at her.“You can’t be Pip!” the Queen gasped. “You’re all dirty,and you have no stockings!”“But I am!” said Princess Pip, and put on her crown to prove it. “Look! It’s me, and I’ve found a place where the ground is made of gold!Come and see.”Daisy and Princess Pip showed them the beach.“ Good heavens!”said the King. “How wonderful! It’s just the color of money.”“What a perfect place for my sun chair,”said the Queen.The beach was a perfect place for picnics and games, and races, too. Everyone loved it.Then one day the King said: “ What a pity we have to go home tomorrow.”Princess Pip scowled, and she said...“I don’t want to go home!!!”4 第四篇Oh, otto!Something importantThe children in Class Four were busy workingThen their teacher, Miss Underwood, said: ‘I have something very important to tell you.’She smiled and said: ‘A new boy is coming to our class. His name is Otto and he comes from far, far away. In fact, he comes from out er space…’( this is Otto’s first day at earth school. Here he is…)The door opened and a boy came in. he looked just like the other children-but he was a different colour. he was green.Miss Underwood told Otto to sit with Jo and Charlie and Josh. Then she looked at Jo and added, ‘I want you to take care of our new boy and give him ahand if he needs it.’‘please, Miss,’ said Otto. ‘I’m not NEW. I’m seven and a half. And I don’t already. Look!’‘Oh, Otto!’ Miss Underwood smiled. ‘just sit down and be a dear.’Otto sat down.Then he said, ‘I don’t think I can be a deer…but I can quack like a duck.’He flapped his arms, like wings, and went: ‘Quack! Quack! Quack!’Charlie joined in: ‘Quack! QUACK! QUACK!’Miss Underwood smiled at Otto. ‘No quacking n class!’ she said.Then she frowned at Charlie. ‘Charlie!’ she said. ‘you know better than that! Get on with your work.’‘It’s not fair!’ Charlie grumbled. ‘I get into trouble and that new boy doesn’t!’That’s when Charlie decided he didn’t like Otto. He didn’t lik e him one bit. Charlie is crossOtto made a lot of mistakes.Charlie leaned back on his chair. Otto tried to do the same thing. But he fell down……and so did all the paints.Now Charlie was green too-and he wasn’t happy about it.Charlie got crosser and crosser and crosser.At playtime, when Otto was in the playground, Charlie decided to scare him. ‘If you stand there, you’ll get eaten by a bear,’ said Charlie.‘A bear! Where?’ Otto screamed.Charlie goggled. ‘we keep the bear in the head’s office. All Ear th schools have a bear,’ he went on. ‘sometimes the bear gets out…and sometimes it’s hungry!’Otto looked very scared.Treasure HuntThat afternoon the class was having a Treasure Hunt. All the children were looking forward to it.Miss Underwood gave each pair of children the same clue.‘I want you to work in a pair with Otto,’ she said to Jo.‘Work in a pear?’ said Otto ‘How? It will have to be a big pear. Not too juicy. We could all get sticky.’Jo laughed. ‘Oh, Otto! You don’t understand anything! ’The Treasure Hunt began.Charlie worked with Josh. Jo worked with Otto.This was the clue that they had to follow:( start at the classroom door.Then walk along.Don’t go right.Then you won’t go wrong.)‘What does that mean?’ said Charlie.‘I don’t know,’ said Josh. ‘But when Miss Underwood hid the treasure last time, it was in the playground.’‘Let’s go there!’ Charlie said to Josh. ‘Quick! We’ll be first.’Otto jumped up to follow them-but Charlie had a plan. He stuck out his foot and tripped Otto up.‘Enjoy your trip!’ Charlie laughed, and ran off with Josh.Jo helped Otto up.All the other children ran out of the classroom and followed Charlie and Josh. They turned right, towards the playground.Jo sighed. ‘Now we’re going to be last.’‘We won’t be last,’ said Otto, ‘because they’re all going the wrong way. Look at the clue.’(Start at the classroom door.Then walk along.Don’t go right.Then you won’t go wrong.Otto pointed at the clue. ‘it means we start here-at the classroom door and we don’t turn RIGH T-because that would be wrong. We have to turn LEFT.’They set off in the other direction to the rest of the children.Charlie and Josh were looking for treasure in the playground and they were getting fed up.‘there’s nothing here,’ said Charlie. ‘Let’s look inside the school.’They went back into the school hall, past the head’s office and that’s when they saw it…‘there IS a bear!’ Charlie said. ‘there really is!’They ran screaming back to their classroom.‘Help! Help! We’ve seen a bear.’Oh, OttoJo and Otto had turned left and walked along the corridor.‘Look!’ said Otto.There was an arrow and it was pointing to a plant pot.Jo picked up the pot and found a map.There was another clue on the map.(clue number2Follow this map if you want to do well.Just look in the place where you find a spell.)Jo and Otto followed the map to the school library.Jo read out the clue again:Follow this map if you want to do well.Just look in the place where you find a spell.‘I understand!’ said Otto. ‘look-there’s a pile of spelling books. That’s where we’ll find a “spell!”’‘You’ve got it, Otto!’ said Jo.Behind the pile of spelling books, there was a box of golden coins. ‘Yum!’ said Jo. ‘It’s chocolate money!’Back in the classroom, Jo and Otto shared out the treasure chocolate.‘But what’s the matter with Josh and Charlie?’ asked Otto.Some of the other children laughed.‘Charlie and Josh thought they saw a bear!’‘A bear!’ said Otto. ‘Jo told me you were making up that story to scare me.’Charlie looked ashamed. ‘It wasn’t really a bear,’ he said. ‘It was the head’s big new coat hanging on the door…’‘But it LOOKED like a bear,’ said Josh.Charlie and Josh went bright red.‘Don’t worry,’ said Otto. ‘Everyone makes mistakes. Have a chocolate.’‘I’m sorry I made fun of you,’ said Charlie.Charlie looked so sad that Miss Underwood felt sorry for him.‘We’ll forgive you, Charlie,’ she said. ‘we all have bad days.’She smiled. ‘You and Josh seem to have lost your heads, today!’‘Oh!’ said Otto. ‘Shall I look for their heads, Miss? I’m good at finding things!’5 第五篇Captain Comet AND THE Purple Planet1 Spanner is boredIt was a quiet morning at Stardust Space Station.Captain Stella was checking the space shuttle.Captain Comet was watering the plants and Spanner the robot was bored.‘Can I sit at the control desk?’he asked.‘All right,’said Captain Comet,‘But don’t touch anything and don’t press that red button.’Spanner sat down at the desk and looked at all the buttons.There were buttons to open all the space station doors and buttons to turn on all the lights.There was even a button to flush all the toilets!There was also a big red button,labelled‘Gravity’.Spanner was not sure what ‘Gravity’was.‘I’ll press it very quickly,’said Spanner,‘to see what it does.’He pressed the red button.Captain Comet was watering the plants when he had a strange feeling.He was floating above the floor!The plant pots were all floating,too.He guessed what had happened.‘Spanner!he shouted ,‘I told you not to touch that red button!’Spanner saw that gravity was what made things stay on the floor.There was no gravity in space,so the space station made its own..Spanner pressed the red button to make the gravity come back on again-and all the pot plants fell to the floor.Comet fell to the floor beside them.‘SPANNER!’Comet groaned.2It must be a plantSpanner was cleaning up the mess for the rest of the morning.When he turned the cleaner off,everyone heard a beeping noise.The noise was coming from the space scanner.Everyone stopped what they were doing and came to look.‘The scanner has found something,’said Comet.He pointed to a flashing dot that was moving across the scanner screen.‘I wonder what it is ?’said Captain Stella.‘Is it an asteroid?’asked Spanner.‘An asteroid is a lump of rock that floats in space.’‘I know that!’said Captain Comet.‘Anyway ,it’s too big to be an asteroid,’‘Then it must be a planet,’Spanner said.‘Where has it come from?’asked Comet,’And why is it moving so fast?’‘You’d better go and have a look,’said Captain Stella.Comet and Spanner set off in the space shuttle to look for the new planet.Spanner was very excited.‘I’ve never found a new planet before,’he said .‘What shall we call it ?’‘Let’s find it first ,’said Comet.But Spanner wasn’t listening.‘I’m going to call it Planet Spanner,’he said.Spanner made a humming noise and a flag came out of a slot in his chest.‘What are you doing?’asked Comet.‘I’ve made a flag to put o n Planet Spanner.Then everyone will know that we were the first to find it,’Spanner explained.He showed Comet the flag.It was bright red with two spanners on it.Comet had to smile.‘Very nice,’he said.3On the Purple PlanetThe planet looked very strange.It was purple and covered in huge spikes.Comet landed the shuttle carefully on the planet.Then he got out to have a look around.Spanner stayed in the shuttle,making a flagpole for his flag.Spanner found a metal rod.He fastened the flag to one end of the rod and put the other end into a hole in his chest.There was a noise like an electric pencil sharpener.When he took the rod out again,it had a nice sharp point.Comet was looking at one of the giant purple spikes.It felt soft and warm.‘That’s very odd,’thought Comet.‘This spike feels like it’s alive.’Just then Spanner arrived with his new flagpole.‘I name this planet-Planet Spanner!’he said proudly.‘NO!STOP!’Comet yelled.But before Comet could stop him,Spanner hammered the sharp flagpole into the ground.There was a huge roar.‘What was that?’asked Spanner.‘Quick,back to the shuttle!’shouted Comet,as the ground began to shake.They strapped themselves into their seats and Comet blasted off.Spanner looked at t he screen.The planet’s surface was spinning around.Then the opening of a big,dark cave came into view.Around the outside of the opening were large,jagged rocks.‘Look!’said Spanner.‘They’re like giant teeth!’Comet stared at the screen.‘That’s because they ARE giant teeth!’he said ,as two huge,angry eyes came into view.‘It’s not a planet…’said Comet,’…It’s a SPACE MONSTER!’gasped Spanner.4Space Chase‘Why is it so angry with us ?’cried Spanner.‘You’ve just hammered a big sharp flagpole into its backside,’explained Captain Comet.The huge teeth snapped shut behind them.‘It wants to eat us!’wailed Spanner.’We’ve got to get away!’‘That’s what I’m trying to do !’said Comet.’But it’s too fast!’Comet fired the shuttle’s jets.Then he tried to make a sharp turn,as the monster zoomed towards them..‘What are we going to do ?’cried Spanner.Just then,Captain Stella’s face appeared on the screen.She had been watching them on the space scanner.Captain Comet tried to make another sharp turn.The space monster was getting closer and closer.‘Are you all right?’Captain Stella asked.’What’s going on?’‘WE’RE GOING TO BE EATEN!’wailed Spanner,’BY A PRICKLY PURPLE SPACE MONSTER THE SIZE OF A PLANET!’‘Apart from that,everything ‘s fine,’said Comet,making the shuttle dive to dodge the giant teeth.‘Can I help ?’asked Captain Stella.‘No,’said Comet,‘You’re too far away. Is there anyone closer?’Stella looked at the space map and shook her head.‘No,there are no space stations or planets-only asteroids,’she said.‘Asteroids!’Comet said.‘Tell me where they are .I’ve got an idea!’5Into the AsteroidsThe space shuttle zoomed towards the asteroids.Spanner and Comet had never been so close to the asteroids before.Some of the asteroids were as big as office blocks.‘What are you doing?’cried Spanner, as Comet flew through a narrow gap between two giant asteroids,‘If you hit one of them at this speed, we’ll be smashed to bits!’。

新版典范英语7(旧版6)1 第一篇Walrus Joins In1 What will Walrus do?Everyone at the North Pole was very excited. There was going to be a show and ANYONE could be in it.‘I will do skating,’ said Arctic Fox. ‘I’m good at that!’‘I’ll do tumbling,’ said Polar Bear. ‘No one tumbles quite like me!’‘I’ll do singing,’ said Seal. ‘Everyone says I have a very fine voice!’‘Then I’ll do diving,’ said Whale. ‘I won a prize for diving at school, you know!’They all looked at Walrus. ‘What will YOU do?’ they aske d.But Walrus was not good at anything.He wasn’t good at skating, and he wasn’t good at tumbling.He was terrible at singing, and when he tried to dive, he always got water up his nose.He sat and chewed his whiskers sadly.‘Never mind,’ said Arctic Fox. ‘You can watch us.’Arctic Fox and Polar Bear and Seal and Whale practised hard for the big show.Walrus hid behind a snowdrift and watched, and chewed his whiskers.He wished he was good at something.2 The big nightAt last, the big night arrived. Everyone sat down and waited for the show to begin. Walrus sat in the front row. He was very excited.Fox came onto the ice and bowed. Everyone cheered.Then Fox began to skate. Fox skated forwards and backwards and sideways. She skated in perfect circles and figures of eight. She was elegant and amazing!Walrus watched and he loved what he saw. Fox made it all look so easy.Walrus was sure that if he really tried he could skate just like Fox.He couldn’t stop himself. He just had to le ap onto the ice and join in with Fox. “I can skate,” he cried. “Look at me!”But Walrus couldn’t skate at all. He could only trip up and fall over.He bumped into Fox, and Fox went flat on her face. FLOMP!Fox was very upset. “Walrus has RUINED my act,” she wailed.Next, it was Polar Bear’s turn. He rolled out across the ice like a big, white snowball. Everyone clapped wildly.Then Polar Bear began to tumble. He did jumps and spins and somersaults, and stood on his head.Walrus watched and he loved what he saw. Polar Bear made it all look such fun. Walrus was sure that this time, if he really tried, he could tumble just like Polar Bear.All of a sudden, Walrus just couldn’t stop himself, and he leaped onto the ice.“I can tumble too,” he cried. “Look at me!”But Walrus couldn’t tumble at all. He could only trip up and fall over. He trippedup Polar Bear, who came down with a WALLOP!Of course, Polar Bear was pretty angry. “Walrus has RUINED my act,” he wailed.3 From bad to worseIt was Seal’s turn next. She gave Walrus a don’t-you-dare stare, and then she started to sing:“O, how many heart rejoices when I see the Northern Lights.My ear is filled with voices sweetly singing in the night!”Walrus listened. What a beautiful song! Surely if he really tried, he could sing as beautifully as Seal? Oh, dear. Walrus just couldn’t stop himself again.“I know that song,” he cried. “I can sing it too!”He leaped up and started singing along with Seal.But Walrus couldn’t sing! He sound ed terrible. In fact, he sounded like a rusty old bucket.Seal stopped singing and burst into floods of tears.“Walrus has RUINED my song,” she wailed.Wale was last. He was pretty certain that Walrus could not ruin his act.Whale leaped high out of the water. Then he fell back with an enormous splash!Walrus watched. He wished that he could dive like that. His flippers began to twitch, and his whiskers bristled with excitement. He tried and tried his very best not to join in.But then he had a brilliant idea.“I’ll hold my nose when I dive,” he thought. “Then the water won’t go up it!”Walrus just couldn’t stop himself. He had to join in.“Everybody, look at me!” he cried, as he leaped into the water. “I can dive too!”But just at that moment, Whale was getting ready to spout a big jet of water.WHOOSH!Whale spouted Walrus high into the air!Everyone was watching Walrus now. They clapped and cheered as Walrus landed back in the sea with a SPLOSH!Whale was furious. “You are a meddling, incompetent BUFFOON!” he roared. “You have RUINED my act. Now GET OUT OF MY SIGHT!”Whale was pretty scary when he was angry. Walrus turned tail and fled. He hid behinda snowdrift, feeling sad and very sorry.4 The show will go on!The show was over. Fox and Polar Bear and Seal and Whale stood in a line, blushing and wishing that Walrus had not ruined everything.But everyone was cheering like mad.“Well done, Polar Bear, well done, Seal! Well done, Fox and Whale!” they shouted. “But where’s the clown? Why isn’t he here? Where’s Walrus?”Behind is snowdrift, Walrus heard the cheers. Were they really cheering for him, too?Yes! They were!He shuffled up to Fox and Polar Bear and Seal And Whale.“I’m very sorry,” he said.“So you should be,” said Fox.“At least everyone thought you were part of the show,” said Polar Bear.“I suppose,” said Seal, “if Walrus was really part of our next show, it couldn’tbe any worse.”Walrus was overjoyed. “Me?” he cried. “Truly? Can I be part of the show? Can I join in next time?”“Yes,” said Whale. “It will bea lot safer that way. You can be the clown. As long as you do it properly.”Walrus practiced hard and became a very good clown indeed. Now he is so good that Fox, Polar Bear, Seal and Whale are glad he is taking part.Sometimes, when Walrus is clowning around, they really just can’t stop themselves. They have to join in too!2 第二篇Noisy Neighbours1 Mr FlinchIn a grim, grey house in a grim, grey town lived an unhappy man.It was not his grey house that made Mr Flinch unhappy. It was not that he was poor, because he was not. Mr Flinch was a miser. He never gave away a penny. ( He never gave away a smile either. ) He was a mean and miserable man.Mr Flinch was miserable because of his neighbours.On one side of Mr Flinch’s grim, grey house stood a jolly red one. It belonged to Carl Clutch who mended cars.Carl loved cars – and motorbikes and vans and lorries. Every morning, Mr Flinch woke up to hear hammers banging, spanners clanging and engines revving. The whole street shook with the noise.On the other side, in a bright blue house, lived a music teacher called Poppy Plink. Each morning, Poppy sat down and played grand tunes on her grand piano. After breakfast, her students started to arrive.Violins screeched, drums thundered and bassoons bellowed. Mr Flinch shut his window, but the noise still came through the wall. Brum –brum, tootle –toot, bang! His whole house shook and shivered.He put his fingers in his ears.He rapped on the wall … but his neighbours did not hear.They were far too happy. They were mending cars and making music, and they loved their work.Brum – brum, tootle – toot, bang!Mr Flinch rap rapped until he made holes in his wallpaper. It did no good.Mr Flinch locked himself in a cupboard. He wound old towels round his head.He wrote angry letters, but tore them all up. ‘ Stamps cost far too much money!’ he said.Even in bed, he wore a hat to keep out the noise.But the cars still revved and the music still jangled.Mr Flinch was the grey filling in a noise sandwich.‘This can’t go on,’ Flinch thought to himself. He even shouted it out loud: 2 Nasty TricksMr Flinch went next door to Carl’s house. Carl was mending cars. It was ea sy to sneak into his kitchen and put a dead rat in the fridge.‘That will get rid of him!’ said Flinch, and smiled a nasty smile. ‘Nobody wants to live in a house with rats!’At midnight, Mr Flinch climbed on to his roof and –carefully, carefully –crawled across the tiles. He put his head down Poppy’s chimney and gave a long, loud, ‘Hooowooowoooo!’‘That will get ride of her,’ he said with a grim grin. ‘Nobody wants to live in a house with ghosts!’Then he climbed back into bed.Next morning, Mr Flinch woke to a HUGE noise. Cars and lorries were stopping outside. He looked out of his window.Carl was sitting outside in the rood, with a table, a kettle, a loaf of bread and a bottle of tomato sauce.Carl called to Mr Flinch, ‘Can’t use my kitch en today! Rays, urgh! My mum is cleaning up. She told me to eat my breakfast outside. That’s how I got this great idea! Take –away breakfast! Drivers can stop here and buy breakfast.’Just then, Poppy Plink came running out of her blue front door. ‘Oh, Mr Flinch! Oh, Carl! Guess what happened last night!’‘I give up,’ said Mr Flinch, with a sumg smirk. ‘Do tell.’Poppy beamed with joy. ‘Last night, angles sang down my chimney! They did, I promise!’ She frowned. ‘But the music wasn’t very good! I thin k they want some new songs to sing! I’m sure they want me to write them, and I shall! Oh I shall!’She did.Poppy still had to teach music all day.But at night she wrote angle music. She made it nice and loud, with lots of cymbals and trumpets.It was all too much for Mr Flinch.3 Mr Flinch has a PlanMr Flinch went next door to Carl’s house.He showed Carl a fistful of money. ‘The day you move house, all this is yours!’ he said.‘Anything you say, chief,’ said Carl, wiping his dirty hands o n a rag.‘As long as I can mend cars, I’ll be happy anywhere.’ Carl went on, ‘I’ll move out as soon as I can sell the house!’Next, Mr Flinch went to Poppy’s house and offered her a hatful of money. ‘The day you move house, all this is yours!’ he said.‘Of course! If that is what you want, dear heart! Cried Poppy.She had never seen so much money in her life. ‘As long as I have my music, I can be happy anywhere! I will move out just as soon as I can sell my little house!’Mr Flinch went home a happy man –well, as happy as a man like Mr Flinch can ever be.He felt in his empty pockets and gulped. ‘All that money gone! Ah, but soon those noisy neighbours will be gone, too!’In a few days, Mr Flinch’s neighbours had sold up their houses.Now, at last, he would have peace and quiet – nothing but the noise of mice scratching in the empty cellar.4 Moving DayMr Flinch watched as Poppy Plink moved out. Bo-jangle went the piano as she pushed and bumped it down the steps.‘Going already are you, you pest?’ he mutted. ‘I pity the person who has to live next door to you!’Seeing him, Poppy waved up at the window.‘Such luck, Mr Flinch!’ she called. ‘Fancy! A few days ago, I met someone who wants to move house too! We agreed to swap houses!’Just then, Carl came out of his front door carrying two heavy tool boxes. He saw Poppy struggling with a harp and went to help her. ‘All set, Poppy? he said.‘All set, Carl! Isn’t this fun!’ She replied.Then Carl moved into Poppy’s bright house and Poppy moved into Carl’s jolly red one.They helped each other to carry the big things, like tables and sofas.Then Carl had a house-warming party. He and Poppy sang, because they were so happy: ‘There’s no place like home!’Mr Flinch heard it right thr ough the wall of his house … even inside his cupboard, even with a towel round his head.3 第三篇Princess Pip’s Holiday1 Ready to goEveryone in Princess Pip’s castle was very busy. The King was polishing his money, the Queen was choosing sun hats, and the maids were running around with piles of vests.“ Can I take Dobbin on holiday?”asked Princess Pip.“I’m afraid there won’t be room for a pony on the coach ,”said the Queen.“Oh, ”said the Princess Pip. “Can Amanda and Bert come,then?”“There ‘s no room for snakes,”said the King, “not even pet ones.”Princess Pip scowled . “This holiday is going to be BORING,” she said.They went on holiday in their best gold coach.“Wave to all the people, dear,” said the Queen.Princess Pip folded her ar ms . “ I ‘m on holiday,” she said. “Are we nearly there yet?”“We won’t be there for a long time,” said the Queen firmly .It did take a long time to get to the seaside . The coach got very hot, and Princess Pip didn’t feel very well.“Here we are,at last!” said the King happily.“But it’s a castle!” said Princess Pip. “Just like home.It’s BORING.”2 Just like homeThere was a girl waiting by the castle door.“This is Daisy,”said the Queen. “She is going to look after you,Pip.”Daisy showed Princess Pip her room.“I don’t want a four-poster bed!” said Princess Pip. “That’s just like home.”“You can sleep on my straw mattress , then,” said Daisy. “ I’ll have the bed.”“Oh, all right.”said Princess Pip.That evening there was a banquet and it went on for hours.“More sprouts?”asked the King happily.This is BORING,”said the Princess Pip.“Nonsense(胡说),dear,”said the Queen. “It can’t be boring. We’re on holiday!”“ I WANT TO GO HOME!” said Princess Pip, the next day. She had been walking round the castle walls all morning and she hadn’t found anything to do.“But we’re having a wonderful time,” said the Queen,from her sun chair.“Just look at the way my money shines in the sun,” said the King. “Wonderful!”“ But it’s BORING!” said Princess Pip.“Why don’t you go and talk to Daisy?” suggested the Queen.Princess Pip stomped off.“That does it,” she said to Daisy. “I WANT TO GO HOME!”3 The road home“If you stayed here a bit longer,you might start liking the seaside,”said Daisy.But Princess Pip wasn’t listening. She was putting all her important things in her suitcase.“I think we’ll have to take some things out,”said Daisy.Daisy found them both backpacks, and they set out for home.Princess Pip and Daisy went across the drawbridge and along the road.It was very hot.“Let’s have a nice,cool snack,”said Daisy.So they got some fish sticks from a stall.“These aren’t bad,” admitted Princess Pip.“They taste best by the seaside,” said Daisy. “ I’ll sh ow you where the fish come from, if you like.”They went down some stone steps to a place where the sea swished backwards and forwards and the ground looked as if it was made of gold.“Look in these pools,” said Daisy.The fish were hard to catch.”You could take your stockings off,” said Daisy, “and use them for nets.”It was nice without shoes and stockings on. It was even nicer once Princess Pip had taken off her coat and crown.The fish looked very cross at being caught, so Princess Pip let them go.“It’s not too bad here,” said Princess Pip,at last. “ I want to stay here all the time.”“Let’s build a sandcastle, then,” said Daisy.“A sand HOUSE,” said Princess Pip.It was hard work, but they built a huge house, with a moat all around.Soon the sea came in and filled the moat.“That’s just right.”said Princess Pip. “Make it stop coming in now,Daisy.”But the sea kept on coming in............ and soon it had washed their house FLAT.“ We built our house too close to the sea,”said Daisy, sadly.“STUPID SEA!”shouted Princess Pip. “STUPID SEASIDE! I WANT TO GO HOME!”4 Riding the dragonPrincess Pip and Daisy put on their shoes and picked up their backpacks.“I’m tired,”said Princess Pip, very soon. “ I want to ride Dobb in. Are we nearly home, yet?”“Why don’t you ride one of the horses on that merry-go-round?” suggested Daisy.“Oh, no,”said Princess Pip. “ I’m going to ride that dragon.”The dragon went very fast, and there was lots of exciting music--but then it all stopped. Everyone got off.“But....we’re still here!” said Princess Pip, crossly, as she got off ,too.“At least it wasn’t boring,” said Daisy.“I WANT TO GO HOME!” shouted Princess Pip.“At least it was fun,” said Daisy. “Everything is fun here because it’s a FUN-fair.”Princess Pip sniffed. “ What’s fun about it?” she asked.“I’ll show you,” said Daisy.They went down the roller coaster.Then they went UP and UP and ....DOWN again.“AARRRRGH!” yelled Princess Pip and Daisy.“Let’s go on it again,” said Princess Pip.“ Tomorrow, perhaps,” said Daisy, who had gone very pale.“BUT I WANT...” began Princess Pip.“Hello!” said a voice.It was the King. The Queen was with him.“Where’s Princess Pip?” the King asked Daisy.“Here!” said Princess Pip.The King and the Queen stared at her.“You can’t be Pip!” the Queen gasped. “You’re all dirty,and you have no stockings!”“But I am!” said Princess Pip, and put on her crown to prove it. “Look! It’s me, and I’ve found a place where the ground is made of gold!Come and see.”Daisy and Princess Pip showed them the beach.“ Good heavens!”said the King. “How wonderful! It’s just the color of money.”“What a perfect place for my sun chair,”said the Queen.The beach was a perfect place for picnics and games, and races, too. Everyone loved it.Then one day the King said: “ What a pity we have to go home tomorrow.”Princess Pip scowled, and she said...“I don’t want to go home!!!”4 第四篇Oh, otto!Something importantThe children in Class Four were busy workingThen their teacher, Miss Underwood, said: ‘I have something very important to tell you.’She smiled and said: ‘A new boy is coming to our class. His name is Otto and he comes from far, far away. In fact, he comes from ou ter space…’( this is Otto’s first day at earth school. Here he is…)The door opened and a boy came in. he looked just like the other children-but he was a different colour. he was green.Miss Underwood told Otto to sit with Jo and Charlie and Josh. Then she looked at Jo and added, ‘I want you to take care of our new boy and give him a hand if he needs it.’‘please, Miss,’ said Otto. ‘I’m not NEW. I’m seven and a half. And I don’t already. Look!’‘Oh, Otto!’ Miss Underwood smiled. ‘just sit down and be a dear.’Otto sat down.Then he said, ‘I don’t think I can be a deer…but I can quack like a duck.’He flapped his arms, like wings, and went: ‘Quack! Quack! Quack!’Charlie joined in: ‘Quack! QUACK! QUACK!’Miss Underwood smiled at Otto. ‘No quacking n class!’ she said.Then she frowned at Charlie. ‘Charlie!’ she said. ‘you know better than that! Get on with your work.’‘It’s not fair!’ Charlie grumbled. ‘I get into trouble and that new boy doesn’t!’That’s when Charlie decided he didn’t like Otto. He didn’t li ke him one bit.Charlie is crossOtto made a lot of mistakes.Charlie leaned back on his chair. Otto tried to do the same thing. But he fell down……and so did all the paints.Now Charlie was green too-and he wasn’t happy about it.Charlie got crosser and crosser and crosser.At playtime, when Otto was in the playground, Charlie decided to scare him.‘If you stand there, you’ll get eaten by a bear,’ said Charlie.‘A bear! Where?’ Otto screamed.Charlie goggled. ‘we keep the bear in the head’s office. All Ea rth schools have a bear,’ he went on. ‘sometimes the bear gets out…and sometimes it’s hungry!’Otto looked very scared.Treasure HuntThat afternoon the class was having a Treasure Hunt. All the children were looking forward to it.Miss Underwood gave each pair of children the same clue.‘I want you to work in a pair with Otto,’ she said to Jo.‘Work in a pear?’ said Otto ‘How? It will have to be a big pear. Not too juicy. We could all get sticky.’Jo laughed. ‘Oh, Otto! You don’t understand anything! ’The Treasure Hunt began.Charlie worked with Josh. Jo worked with Otto.This was the clue that they had to follow:( start at the classroom door.Then walk along.Don’t go right.Then you won’t go wrong.)‘What does that mean?’ said Charlie.‘I don’t know,’said Josh. ‘But when Miss Underwood hid the treasure last time, it was in the playground.’‘Let’s go there!’ Charlie said to Josh. ‘Quick! We’ll be first.’Otto jumped up to follow them-but Charlie had a plan. He stuck out his foot and tripped Otto up.‘Enjoy your trip!’ Charlie laughed, and ran off with Josh.Jo helped Otto up.All the other children ran out of the classroom and followed Charlie and Josh. They turned right, towards the playground.Jo sighed. ‘Now we’re going to be last.’‘We won’t be last,’ said Otto, ‘because they’re all going the wrong way. Look at the clue.’(Start at the classroom door.Then walk along.Don’t go right.Then you won’t go wrong.Otto pointed at the clue. ‘it means we start here-at the classroom door and we don’t turn RIGHT-because that would be wrong. We have to turn LEFT.’They set off in the other direction to the rest of the children.Charlie and Josh were looking for treasure in the playground and they were getting fed up.‘there’s nothing here,’ said Charlie. ‘Let’s look inside the school.’They went back into the school hall, past the head’s office and that’s when they saw it…‘there IS a bear!’ Charlie said. ‘there really is!’They ran screaming back to their classroom.‘Help! Help! We’ve seen a bear.’Oh, OttoJo and Otto had turned left and walked along the corridor.‘Look!’ said Otto.There was an arrow and it was pointing to a plant pot.Jo picked up the pot and found a map.There was another clue on the map.(clue number2Follow this map if you want to do well.Just look in the place where you find a spell.)Jo and Otto followed the map to the school library.Jo read out the clue again:Follow this map if you want to do well.Just look in the place where you find a spell.‘I understand!’ said Otto. ‘look-there’s a pile of spelling books. That’s where we’ll find a “spell!”’‘You’ve got it, Otto!’ said Jo.Behind the pile of spelling books, there was a box of golden coins. ‘Yum!’ said Jo. ‘It’s chocolate money!’Back in the classroom, Jo and Otto shared out the treasure chocolate.‘But what’s the matter with Josh and Charlie?’ asked Otto.Some of the other children laughed.‘Charlie and Josh thought they saw a bear!’‘A bear!’ said Otto. ‘Jo told me you were making up that story to scare me.’Charlie looked ashamed. ‘It wasn’t really a bear,’ he said. ‘It was the head’s big new coat hanging on the door…’‘But it LOOKED like a bear,’ said Josh.Charlie and Josh went bright red.‘Don’t worry,’ said Otto. ‘Everyone makes mistakes. Have a chocolate.’‘I’m sorry I made fun of you,’ said Charlie.Charlie looked so sad that Miss Underwood felt sorry for him.‘We’ll forgive you, Charlie,’ she said. ‘we all have bad days.’She smiled. ‘You and Josh seem to have lost your heads, today!’‘Oh!’ said Otto. ‘Shall I look for their heads, Miss? I’m good at finding things!’ 5 第五篇Captain Comet AND THE Purple Planet1 Spanner is boredIt was a quiet morning at Stardust Space Station.Captain Stella was checking the space shuttle.Captain Comet was watering the plants and Spanner the robot was bored.‘Can I sit at the control desk?’he asked.‘All right,’said Captain Comet,‘But don’t touch anything and don’t press that red button.’Spanner sat down at the desk and looked at all the buttons.There were buttons to open all the space station doors and buttons to turn on all the lights.There was even a button to flush all the toilets!There was also a big red button,labelled‘Gravity’.Spanner was not sure what ‘Gravity’was.‘I’ll press it very quickly,’said Spanner,‘to see what it does.’He pressed the red button.Captain Comet was watering the plants when he had a strange feeling.He was floating above the floor!The plant pots were all floating,too.He guessed what had happened.‘Spanner!he shouted ,‘I told you not to touch that red button!’Spanner saw that gravity was what made things stay on the floor.There was no gravity in space,so the space station made its own..Spanner pressed the red button to make the gravity come back on again-and all the pot plants fell to the floor.Comet fell to the floor beside them.‘SPANNER!’Comet groaned.2 It must be a plantSpanner was cleaning up the mess for the rest of the morning.When he turned the cleaner off,everyone heard a beeping noise.The noise was coming from the space scanner.Everyone stopped what they were doing and came to look.‘The scanner has found something,’said Comet.He pointed to a flashing dot that was moving across the scanner screen.‘I wonder what it is ?’said Captain Stella.‘Is it an asteroid?’asked Spanner.‘An asteroid is a lump of rock that floats in space.’‘I know that!’said Captain Comet.‘Anyway ,it’s too big to be an asteroid,’‘Then it must be a planet,’Spanner said.‘Where has it come from?’asked Comet,’And why is it moving so fast?’‘You’d better go and have a look,’said Captain Stella.Comet and Spanner set off in the space shuttle to look for the new planet.Spanner was very excited.‘I’ve never found a new planet before,’he said .‘What shall we call it ?’‘Let’s find it first ,’said Comet.But Spanner wasn’t listening.‘I’m going to call it Planet Spanner,’he said.Spanner made a humming noise and a flag came out of a slot in his chest.‘What are you doing?’asked Comet.‘I’ve made a flag to put on Planet Spanner.Then everyone will know that we were the first to find it,’Spanner explained.He showed Comet the flag.It was bright red with two spanners on it.Comet had to smile.‘Very nice,’he said.3 On the Purple PlanetThe planet looked very strange.It was purple and covered in huge spikes.Comet landed the shuttle carefully on the planet.Then he got out to have a look around.Spanner stayed in the shuttle,making a flagpole for his flag.Spanner found a metal rod.He fastened the flag to one end of the rod and put the other end into a hole in his chest.There was a noise like an electric pencil sharpener.When he took the rod out again,it had a nice sharp point.Comet was looking at one of the giant purple spikes.It felt soft and warm.‘That’s very odd,’thought Comet.‘This spike feels like it’s alive.’Just then Spanner arrived with his new flagpole.‘I name this planet-Planet Spanner!’he said proudly.‘NO!STOP!’Comet yelled.But before Comet could stop him,Spanner hammered the sharp flagpole into the ground.There was a huge roar.‘What was that?’asked Spanner.‘Quick,back to the shuttle!’shouted Comet,as the ground began to shake.They strapped themselves into their seats and Comet blasted off.Spanner looked at the screen.The planet’s surface was spinning around.Then the opening of a big,dark cave came into view.Around the outside of the opening were large,jagged rocks.‘Look!’said Spanner.‘They’re like giant teeth!’Comet stared at the screen.‘That’s because they ARE giant teeth!’he said ,as two huge,angry eyes came into view.‘It’s not a planet…’said Comet,’…It’s a SPACE MONSTER!’gasped Spanner.4 Space Chase‘Why is it so angry with us ?’cried Spanner.‘You’ve just hammered a big sharp flagpole into its backside,’explained Captain Comet.The huge teeth snapped shut behind them.‘It wants to eat us!’wailed Spanner.’We’ve got to get away!’‘That’s what I’m trying to do !’said Comet.’But it’s too fast!’Comet fired the shuttle’s jets.Then h e tried to make a sharp turn,as the monster zoomed towards them..‘What are we going to do ?’cried Spanner.Just then,Captain Stella’s face appeared on the screen.She had been watching them on the space scanner.Captain Comet tried to make another sharp turn.The space monster was getting closer and closer.‘Are you all right?’Captain Stella asked.’What’s going on?’‘WE’RE GOING TO BE EATEN!’wailed Spanner,’BY A PRICKLY PURPLE SPACE MONSTER THE SIZE OF A PLANET!’‘Apart from that,everything ‘s fine,’said Comet,making the shuttle dive to dodge the giant teeth.‘Can I help ?’asked Captain Stella.‘No,’said Comet,‘You’re too far away. Is there anyone closer?’Stella looked at the space map and shook her head.‘No,there are no space stations o r planets-only asteroids,’she said.‘Asteroids!’Comet said.‘Tell me where they are .I’ve got an idea!’5 Into the AsteroidsThe space shuttle zoomed towards the asteroids.Spanner and Comet had never been so close to the asteroids before.Some of the asteroids were as big as office blocks.‘What are you doing?’cried Spanner, as Comet flew through a narrow gap between two giant asteroids,‘If you hit one of them at this speed, we’ll be smashed to bits!’‘It’s the only way to get away from the monster,’explained Comet.‘The gaps are so narrow, it can’t follow us .’Comet was right.The space monster stopped chasing them. Then it flew up to an asteroid-and took a big bite out of it .Comet and Spanner watched as the monster chomped its way happily through two or three asteroids.‘It eats asteroids!’ Spanner said.‘I’m glad it didn’t eat US!’Comet smiled.‘We didn’t find a new planet after all,’grumbled Spanner,on the way back to the space station.‘No,’said Comet.’But we did find a new kind of space monster.’‘That’s true,’said Spanner.’But how will anyone know that we were the first to find it ?’Captain Comet took one last look at the purple monster ane smiled.‘Oh,they’ll know. After all , it does have YOUR FLAG sticking out of its bo ttom!’he said.6 第六篇JUNGLE SHORTS1It was Friday afternoon.Class 3 had put on their coats and were waiting in a line to go home.lenny was at the back because the zip on his anorak(防水衣)had stuck(卡住).He was so busy with the zip that he nearly missed what Mr Cox the teacher said.‘Here is a letter for you all.’said Mr Cox.‘Don’t lose it and don’t forget to give it to your parents.There is good news inside.’Lenny wanted to know what the good news was.He rushed across the playground to meet his mum.。

典范英语7吵闹的邻居原文典范英语7中第二篇故事《Noisy Neighbours》的原文,以下是这篇故事的全文:Noisy NeighboursIn a grim, grey house in a grim, grey town lived an unhappy man. It was not his grey house that made Mr Flinch unhappy. It was not that he was poor, because he was not. Mr Flinch was a miser. He never gave away a penny. (He never gave away a smile either.) He was a mean and miserable man.Mr Flinch was miserable because of his neighbours. On one side of Mr Flinch’s grim, grey house stood a jolly red one. It belonged to Carl Clutch who mended cars. Carl loved cars – and motorbikes and vans and lorries. Every morning, Mr Flinch woke up to hear hammers banging, spanners clanging and engines revving. The whole street shook with the noise.On the other side, in a bright blue house, lived a music teacher called Poppy Plink. Each morning, Poppy sat down and played grand tunes on her grand piano. After breakfast, her students started toarrive. Violins screeched, drums thundered and bassoons bellowed. Mr Flinch shut his window, but the noise still came through the wall. Brum – brum, tootle – toot, bang!His whole house was trembling. He put his hands over his ears. He banged on the wall to show his抗议… but his neighbours couldn’t hear. They were too happy. They were making music and mending cars. They loved their jobs. Brum-brum, tootle-toot, bang!Mr Flinch banged and shouted until he made a hole in the wall. He wrote lots of letters, but he tore them all up. ‘The stamps cost too much!’ he said. Even in bed, he wore a hat to ke ep the noise out. But the engines still revved and the music still played. Mr Flinch was like a sandwich with the noise in the middle. ‘This can’t go on!’ he shouted.And he didn’t. He moved away, to a quiet house in the country. There was no one to make a noise. No one to bang and clang and rev and toot.But Mr Flinch was wrong. There was someone. There was a little mouse.。

It was part of a set of animal noises. This was tape number 12 and it was calledHedgehogs.Amy asked Mr Peck if she could borrow the cassette.‘Of course you can,'he said rudely.‘Though anybody who wants to listen to horrid animal noises must be mad. ' Hestamped the cassette box.‘And don 'tforget to rewind the tape. ' Hedgehog talkAmy sat in her room listening to the sounds of hedgehogs on her personal stereo, over and over again. Amy repeatedthe sounds herself.‘I'm talking hedgehog, 'thought Amy.‘Iwish I knew what I was saying. I really need a hedgehog to help me. I 'm surethere 'sone in the garden. If I make hedgehog noises, perhaps it will hear me. 'Amy ran down into the garden and made hedgehog noises as loudly as she could.She stopped and listened,but no hedgehogs answered. Amy tried again. Bnt only a cat came into the garden.1----‘I'm going to keep trying, 'said Amy.‘I'm sure Ican do it. 'At last she got cold and she went indoors.The next night Amy tried again. She tried every night for a week.‘What are you doing out there? 'asked Mrs Harris.‘Wait and see,'said Amy.Just then the door bell rang. It was Mr Peck. He stood at the door in his dressing gown.

'Amy went down on her knees and began to make her hedgehog sounds again.Almost at once there was a rustling noise and a hedgehog lumbered onto the lawn. Amy was delighted. Thehedgehog and Amy snorted and squeaked at each other.Suddenly a torch beam shone in their eyes.‘What 's going on?'said a voice. It was Mr Peck, still in his dressing gown. The hedgehog rolled into a ball.‘I'm chatting to a hedgehog, 'said Amy.‘You cheeky young thing. Talking to hedgehogs indeed. '‘Excuse me—‘began Amy.‘And what 'smore,'Mr Peck cut in,‘hedgehogs are dirty little beasts and they eat up all the vegetables in my garden. '‘Rubbish! 'said Amy crossly.‘Hedgehogs are not dirty. And they don 'teat vegetables. They eat slugs and snails. Now,ifyou don 'tmind, I was talking to a hedgehog. 'Mr Peck was too shocked to answer. His mouth dropped open as Amy snorted gently to the hedgehog. Slowly it unrolled.A sly look crept across Mr Peck 'sface.‘How often have you been doing this, my dear?'he asked.‘Never before, 'said Amy.‘But from now on, I 'll be every night. ' ‘Hm,'said Mr Peck.‘You're going to be here every night, you say. 'The amazing hedgehog girlWhen Amy came home from school the next day,Mr Peck was in his front drive. He was fixing a large board to the gate.As soon as he saw Amy, he throw his coat over it.Amy had promised to show her mum the hedgehog. It was getting dark when they stepped into the garden to seeher hedgehog friend.Amy went down on her knees and began to snort. This time two hedgehogs came up to her.‘What are you talking about? 'whispered Mrs Harris.‘Slugs.'There was a sound from next door. Amy shone her torch towards the fence. There were people staring into her garden.They all had their mouths open.One person stood out. It was Mr Peck.‘I've asked a few friends over,'he said smoothly.‘Ihope you don 'tmind. 'Amy was cross, but she also felt rather proud that so many people had come to see her. ‘You may wath. But please don 'ttalk or make a noise. And no photos. 'The people nodded.Amy went down on her knees and snorted once moer.This time three more hedgehogs came up. Amy managed to tell the hedgehogs that they had nothing to fear. Thepeople just wanted to see how clever they were. Amy and the hedgehogs talked and played together.2-----As soon as the hedgehogs had gone, the people behind the fence began to clap and cheer. Of course they wantedto know what Amy and the hedgehogs had been talking about.‘They told me about their young. Then they told me why they curlup into a ball.

Then a smilecrept across her face. ‘Iknow how to fix you,Mr Peck. 'She raced round to Mr Peck 'sgarden. Some of the people were still enjoying a cup of tea and biscuits.Before Mr Peck could stop her, she said,'Ladies and gentlemen. There is something I must tell you.

Mr Such was their teacher andhe wore the same trousers to school, day in and day out.‘They're so crumpled and baggy, 'Janey said.‘And grubby and thick, 'said Derek.‘Like a pair of old dish-cloths. '‘And he wears them all the time. '‘Idon 'tthink he 'sgot any others.'‘Old Baggy-Pants, that'swhat he is,'Derek added,sticking his fork into his jam roly-poly.‘Iwish he 'd get some new ones,'Janey sighed.At that moment Old Baggy-pants himself came into the hall. Janey 'smouth fell open and Derek could see the mashed upjam roly-poly inside.‘What 's up?'he said.Janey blinked and pointed. There was Mr Such in a brand new suit.A spotless white suit without a crease in it. Everyonein the hall stopped eating and stared at him.‘Carry on,everyone,'said Mr Such, a bit red in the face.‘Carry on eating.'‘Wow! 'said Derek, leaning across his plate.‘He looks so different. '‘He looks smart,'said Janey firmly.‘And about time, too. ' Later that afternoon Janey 's class trooped back into the hall for P .E.‘Ilike the suit, sir, 'Janey told Mr Such as they filed in.‘Thank you, Janey. It'sfor Parents'Evening, really.'‘Parents'Evening?'‘Yes, I have to look my best for that, don 'tI? '‘But that 'snot till Monday, Mr Such, 'Derek said.‘Iknown that, Derek. I 'm just getting used to it. 'While they were talking. Mrs Venn came out of the kitchen with a bowl of custard in her arms.She was so shocked to see Mr Such in his bright new suit she gave a little jump.'Oh my gosh!'she cried. She grabbed one of the hall curtains to steady herself. The custard looped into the air, straight for Mr Such.Derek saw it coming and stepped smartly in the way. The custard wobbled through the air and flopped againstDerek;s vest. Everyone fell silent. Derek stood there, looking sad and stunned. And covered in cold custard.‘Well done, Derek, 'said Mr Such.‘You'd saved my brand new suit. ' Derek tried to smile but by then the custard was oozing into his shorts. After break, Mr Such changed back into his dish-cloth trousers.‘Please keep clear of this,'he said, hanging his new suit on the cupboard door.‘Keep well clear.'A Lovely green colourThe last lesson of the day was art. They had to paint interesting faces. Janey was doing a monster. She put blood-shot bits in his eyes, a bolt through his neck and green stuff coming out of his nose. She was pleased with the green sthff,but she'd mixed up too much. She asked Derek if he wanted some.‘Idon 'tneed any green stuff, Janey,'he said .‘I'm doing a footballer. '‘Well, he could have green stuff coming out of his nose, couldn'the?'she said.‘No,'said Derek. 'He couldn't.'‘You'd could use it for the background. Like grass. 'Mr Such4-----Princess Pip' s Holiday1 Ready to goEveryone in Princess Pip 's castlewas very busy. The King was polishing his money, the Queen was choosing sunhats, and the maids were running around with piles of vests.“Can I take Dobbin on holiday?”asked Princess Pip.“I 'm afraidthere won 't be roomfor a pony on the coach , ”said the Queen.“Oh, ”said the Princess Pip.“Can Amanda and Bert come,then?”“There ‘s no room for snakes,”said the King,“not even pet ones.”Princess Pip scowled .“This holiday is going to be BORING,”she said.They went on holiday in their best gold coach.“Wave toall the people, dear,”said the Queen.Princess Pip folded her arms .“I‘m on holiday,”she said.“Are we nearly there yet?”“We won't be there for a long time,”said the Queen. firmlyIt did take a long time to get to the seaside .

新版典范英语7(旧版6)2 第二篇J /I J * /niqNoisy Neighbours1 Mr FlinchIn a grim, grey house in a grim, grey town lived an unhappy man.It was not his grey house that made Mr Flinch unhappy. It was not that he was poor, because he was not. Mr Flinch was a miser. He never gave away a penny. ( He never gave away a smile either. ) He was a mean and miserable man.Mr Flinch was miserable because of his neighbours.On one side of Mr Flinch 's grim, grey house stood a jolly red one. It belonged to CarlClutch who mended cars.Carl loved cars -and motorbikes and vans and lorries. Every morning, Mr Flinch woke up to hear hammers banging, spanners clanging and engines revving. The whole street shook with the noise.On the other side, in a bright blue house, lived a music teacher called Poppy Plink. Each morning, Poppy sat down and played grand tunes on her grand piano. After breakfast, her students started to arrive.Violins screeched, drums thundered and bassoons bellowed. Mr Flinch shut his window, but the noise still came through the wall. Brum -brum, tootle -toot, bang! Hiswhole house shook and shivered.He put his fingers in his ears.He rapped on the wall …but his n eighbours did not hear.They were far too happy. They were mending cars and making music, and they loved their work.Brum -brum, tootle -toot, bang!Mr Flinch rap rapped until he made holes in his wallpaper. It did no good.Mr Flinch locked himself in a cupboard. He wound old towels round his head.He wrote angry letters, but tore them all up. ‘Stamps cost far too much money!'he said.Even in bed, he wore a hat to keep out the noise.But the cars still revved and the music still jangled.Mr Flinch was the grey filling in a noise sandwich.‘This can 't go on, ' Flinch thought to hfi.mHs e leven shouted it out loud:2 Nasty TricksMr Flinch went next door to Carl 's house. Carl was mending cars. It was easy to sneak into his kitchen and put a dead rat in the fridge.‘That will get rid of him! ' said Flinch, and smiled a nasty smile. ‘Nobody wants to li a house with rats! 'At midnight, Mr Flinch climbed on to his roof and -carefully, carefully -crawled across the tiles. He put his head down Poppy'schimney and gave a long, loud, ‘Hooowooowoooo! '‘That will get ride of her, he sa'id with a grim grin. ‘Nobody wants to live in a housewith ghosts! 'Then he climbed back into bed.Next morning, Mr Flinch woke to a HUGE noise. Cars and lorries were stopping outside. He looked out of his window.Carl was sitting outside in the rood, with a table, a kettle, a loaf of bread and a bottle of tomato sauce.Carl called to Mr Flinch, ‘Can't use my kitchen today! Rays, urgh! My mum is cleaningup. She told me to eat my breakfast outside. That 's how I got this great ide a w! aTyake breakfast! Drivers can stop here and buy breakfast. 'Just then, Poppy Plink came running out of her blue front door. ‘Oh, Mr Flinch! Oh,Carl! Guess what happened last night! '‘I give up, ' said Mr Flinch, with a sumg smirk. ‘Do tell. 'Poppy beamed with joy. ‘Lastnight, angles sang down my chimney! They did, I promise! ' She frowned.‘But the music wasn 't very good! I think they want some new songsto sing! I 'm sure they want me to write them, and I shall! Oh I shall! 'She did.Poppy still had to teach music all day.But at night she wrote angle music. She made it nice and loud, with lots of cymbals and trumpets.It was all too much for Mr Flinch.3 Mr Flinch has a PlanMr Flinch went next door to Carl 's house.He showed Carl a fistful of m oney. ‘The day you move house, all this is yours! ' he said.‘Anything you say, chief, ' said Carl, wiping his dirty hands on a rag.‘Aslong as I can mend cars, I'lbl e happy anywhere. 'Carl went on, ‘I 'mlol ve out as soon as I can sell the house! 'Next, Mr Flinch went to Poppy 's house and offered her a hatful of money. ‘The day you move house, all this is yours! ' he said.‘Of course! If that is what you want, dear heart! Cried Poppy.She had never seen so much money in her life. ‘As long as I hamvye music, I can be happy anywhere! I will move out just as soon as I can sell my little house! 'Mr Fli nch went home a happy man - well, as happy as a man like Mr Fli nch can ever be.He felt in his empty pockets and gulped. ‘All that money gone! Aths,oboun those noisy neighbours will be gone, too! 'In a few days, Mr Flinch 's neighbours had sold up their houses.Now, at last, he would have peace and quiet - nothing but the no ise of mice scratchi ngin the empty cellar.4 Moving DayMr Flinch watched as Poppy Plink moved out. Bo-jangle went the piano as she pushed and bumped it down the steps.‘Goingalready are you, you pest?'he mutted. ‘Ipity the person who has to live next door to you! ' Seeing him, Poppy waved up at the window.‘Such luck, Mr Flinch! ' she called. ‘Fancy! A few days ago, I met someone who wants to move house too! We agreed to swap houses! 'Just then, Carl came out of his front door carrying two heavy tool boxes. He saw Poppy struggling with a harp and went to help her. ‘All set, Poppy? he said.‘All set, Carl! Isn 't this fun! ' She replied.Then Carl moved into Poppy 's bright house and Poppy moved into Carl 's jolly red one.They helped each other to carry the big things, like tables and sofas.Then Carl had a house-warming party. He and Poppy sang, because they were so happy:‘ There ' s no place like home! ' Mr Flinch heard it right through the wall of his house with a towel round his head. …eve n in side his cupboard, even。

通过前期教学,学生对小说有了基本的理解,但是小说中的一些单词仅限于在词典 帮助下认识中文,不会应用也不关注词汇的用法。所以本节课的设计在于,在问题的引 导下学生能够欣赏原版小说中单词,词组的用法同时鼓励学生在自己的采访活动中用上 尽量多的生词和好句来解决以上问题。 【学生情况】
本节课的授课对象是本校高一 3 班的学生,共 19 人。 在思维方面,学生对文本涉及的话题感兴趣,且通过阅读和第一课时的背景知识介 绍,对文章有了初步的了解。第一课时的制作故事书的作业进一步激发了学生的创造性 和兴趣点。在语言能力方面,本班学生有一定的口语基础,学生较愿意表达自己的看法。 但是学生第一次接触 2000 余词的小说,存在一些词汇障碍,有可能细节把握上不够精 准,但基本可以读懂基本文意,用自己的语言口述文章内容。同时,课容量及信息量较 大,所以学生在表达上可能出现不够流利,或者信息运用不够到位的情况。 【教学重难点】 教学重点:通过阅读问题引导学生赏析文中语言,通过问题进一步提取,运用文章信息,
同时实践读写结合的教学理念,要求学生在课上读在课下写,在过程中内化语言, 真正做到从说到写的学习过程。

指导思想与理论依据
(普通高中)《英语课程标准》指出:高中英语课程要特别着重培养学生用英语 获取信息、处理信息和传达信息的能力、分析问题和解决问题的能力以及用英语进行思 维和表达的能力。
2003 年《普通高中英语课程标准(实验)》明确规定:普通高中毕业生(八级) 应能在教师的帮助下欣赏浅显的文学作品,课外阅读量(各种文体)累计达到 36 万词 以上。
新课标明确了高中英语课程的双重性,即工具性和人文性。在高中英语教材中引入 小说体裁的文章,一方面可以促进学生心智、情感、态度的发展和价值观的形成;另一 方面可以帮助学生了解西方文化;同时还可以训练学生的英语理解与表达能力。新课标 建议设置“英语文学欣赏入门”的选修课程,旨在通过故事情节分析、人物分析和主要 分析以及西方文化熏陶来扩大学生的文化视野,进一步提高学生使用英语语言工具的能 力,进一步提高学生的文化人文素养(教育部,2003)。
本课是本次小说阅读的第二课时。旨在通过阅读,学会赏析文中好词好句,了解作 为志愿者,要有服务他人,热心公益的意识的同时也需要做好准备,具备专业技能,同 时了解援救犬的敬业和牺牲精神。 【前期教学状况、问题、对策】
第一课时进行跟读练习及对救援犬及救援组织的背景介绍,使学生对救援犬及救援 志愿者有一定的了解。课下作业中学生通过阅读,已经通过查阅英语词典将生词标上中 文意思及部分音标通过阅读学生对小说有了基本的理解,同时根据文章内容和自己的理 解,自选视角制作了英语故事书,学生能够用自己的语言简单概述故事。
本次小说阅读分为三个课时进行。第一课时教师带领学生进行文本跟读,介绍救援 犬及救援组织的背景知识,使学生对救援犬及救援志愿者有一定的了解,课后通过查词 典解决生词问题并概括故事情节。第二课时在阅读任务中引导学生对小说语言进行赏 析,感受英语文学的魅力,同时通过对人物及情节的分析和解读,从而使学生完成为本 校“志愿者月”采访书中人物,宣扬志愿者精神,认知救援犬价值的课堂活动。由于本 小说与人教版必修一 Unit 4 Earthquakes 话题相关,在课上有意识的引导学生关注描述 地震现场的生动描述,可以使学生在之后学习 Unit 4Earthquaks 时对话题有更深刻的理 解和具象的认识。第三课时在学生完成课后作业-按照要求写下采访稿后,每一组学生 展示采访,教师及其他学生根据要求对每组的采访完成情况进行评价并给予建议。
2000 余词的小说对学生而言较长,生词较多,理解和运用对刚刚升入高一的学生较 难。学生英语程度不一,对一部分学生的生词量较大。在课下作业中学生通过阅读,已 经通过查阅英语词典将生词标上中文意思及部分音标,能够理解文章内容。根据文章内 容和自己的理解,自选视角有创造性地制作了英语故事书,因此学生能够用自己的话描 述故事梗概。在跟读环节,录音语速较快,有些部分学生无法完全跟读下来,但是跟读 过程中能够通过语音语调的变化进一步体会文章情节,文章细节及情景朗读让学生仿若 身临其境。
