Unit1 Mr. Doherty Builds His Dream LifeThe passage mainly talked about the dream life of the author with his family on a farm, where the author could write and live. The author viewed his life in the country as a self-reliant and satisfying one, but sometimes the good life would get very hard. On the first winter, the author was fond of every minute instead with his family, which they would never forget, while the follow spring brought two floods, which made them amazed. After quitting his job, the author’s income was reduced, but he and his family were able to manage to get by. Besides, he ran a farm and benefited more from it. A tolerance for solitude and a lot of energy had made it possible for the family to enjoy their life in the country. What’s more, they also had found the lifestyle that they preferred in this place.Unit 2 The Freedom GiversThe passage mainly talked about three persons, Josiah Henson, John Parker and Levi Coffin, who were the givers of freedom for black slaves in the American history. Besides, the author praised the exploits of civil-rights heroes who helped slaves travel the Underground Railroad to freedom by citing more examples. What’s more, it was high time to honor the heroes who helped liberate slaves by forging the Underground Railroad in the early civil-rights struggles in America. After winning his own freedom from slavery, John Parker helped other slaves to escape north to Canada and freedom. Supported by a strong religious conviction, the white man Levi Coffin risked himself to help many black slaves to escape. At last, by traveling the Underground Railroad, Josiah Henson reached his destination and became free.Unit 3 The Land of the LockThe passage mainly talked about the land of lock, which happened in American. When the author was young, it was the local custom for people to leave the front door at night but didn’t close it, and none of them carried keys. However, nowadays those days were over, and the era of leaving the front door on the latch has drawn to a close. What a great change was that no locking had been replaced by dead-bolt locks, security chains, electronic alarm systems and so on. Therefore, the lock became the new symbol of America. What’s more, a new atmosphere of fear and distrust had crept into every aspect of daily life. As a result, security devices, in varied forms, were put to use. In locking their fears out, they became prisoners of their own making.Unit 4 Was Einstein a Space AlienThe passage mainly talked about Albert Einstein, who was a young husband and father with a bushy hair. In order to support his young family, with a poor sleep, he had to work hard at the Patent Office so that he was very tired. For which, he felt all the pressure and responsibility. However, aiming to relax himself, he made astonishing achievements in physics and thus revolutionized the field with five papers about spare time, which were of great impact on all over the world. Because of his supper intelligence and the contribution to the society, the United Nations declared 2005 as his miracle year. What’s more, his discoveries were attributable to his imagination, questioning, disregard constantly for authority, powers of concentration, and interest in science. In fact, he was not a space alien, but just a common person.Unit 5 Three Thank-You LettersThe passage mainly talked about the author’s three special letters, by which he wanted to celebrate the true meaning of Thanksgiving. On Thanksgiving Day 1943, as a young coastguardsman at sea, he worked as a cook. While he was going to think about Thanksgiving, he came up with the idea of expressing his gratitude to people who had helped him before. Therefore, he wrote three thank-you letters to three persons, his father, the Rev. Nelson and his grandmother. At a mail call, he got three letters in reply, which drove him to think deeply. After he retired from the Coast Guard, he still never forgot these letters which gave him an insight into expressing appreciation for one’s efforts. Furthermore, he wished everyone to find the good and then praise it.Unit 6 The Last LeafThe passage mainly talked about the last leaf, which Johnsy gave a sight to after she got the pneumonia and lived in the hospital. She looked out the window and counted the leaves on an old ivy vine. Furthermore, she made up her mind to end her life when the last leaf fell. When she saw the last leaf still cling to the vine after two nights’ rain and wind, she decided not to give up her life. In fact, the last leaf, called a masterpiece by Behrman who risked his life painting it there the night that the last leaf fell, was actually painted onto the wall. However, because it looked so real that she could have never imagined that it was faked. In a deeper sense, it saved her life.unit 1 Mr. Doherty Builds His Dream LifeIn America many people have a romantic idea of life in the countryside. Many living in towns dream of starting up their own farm, of living off the land. Few get round to putting their dreams into practice. This is perhaps just as well, as the life of a farmer is far from easy, as Jim Doherty discovered when he set out to combine being a writer with running a farm. Nevertheless, as he explains, he has no regrets and remains enthusiastic about his decision to change his way of life.在美国，不少人对乡村生活怀有浪漫的情感。

The relaxed atmosp here had disappeared, and the peer group pressure to work hard was stron g. Meanwhile, at the back of everyone’s mind was what we would do nex t after graduation.

新概念英语第三册学习笔记 Lesson 10

Lesson 10 The Loss of the Titanic 泰坦尼克号的沉没课文The great ship, Titanic, sailed for New York from Southampton on April 10th, 1912. She was carrying 1,316 passengers and crew of 891. Even by modern standards, the 46,000 ton Titanic was a colossal ship. At the time, however, she was not only the largest ship that had ever been built, but was regarded as unsinkable, for she had sixteen watertight compartments. Even if two of these were flooded, she would still be able to float. The tragic sinking of this great liner will always be remembered, for she went down on her first voyage with heavy loss of life.Four days after setting out, while the Titanic was sailing across the icy water of the North Atlantic, a huge iceberg was suddenly spotted by a lookout. After the alarm had been given, the great ship turned sharply to avoid a direct collision. The Titanic turned just in time, narrowly missing the immense wall of ice which rose over 100 feet out of the water beside her. Suddenly, there was a slight trembling sound from below, and the captain went down to see what had happened. The noise had been so faint that no one thought that the ship had been damaged. Below, the captain realized to his horror that the Titanic was sinking rapidly, for five of her sixteen watertight compartments had already been flooded! The order to abandon ship was given and hundreds of people plunged into the icy water. As there were not enough lifeboats for everybody, 1,500 lives were lost.译文巨轮“泰坦尼克”号1912 年4 月10 日从南安普敦起锚驶向纽约。

新概念英语第三册精读笔记 Lesson 3

Lesson3 An unknown goddess无名女神课文Some time ago,an interesting discovery was made by archaeologists on the Aegean is land of Kea.An American team explored a temple which stands in an ancient city on t he promontory of Ayia Irini.The city at one time must have been prosperous,for it en joyed a high level of civilization.Houses -- often three storeys high -- were built of st one.They had large rooms with beautifully decorated walls.The city was even equipped with a drainage system,for a great many clay pipes were found beneath the narrow streets.The temple which the archaeologists explored was used as a place of worship from the fifteenth century B.C.until Roman times.In the most sacred room of the temple,clay fragments of fifteen statues were found.Each of these represented a godd ess and had,at one time,been painted.The body of one statue was found among rema ins dating from the fifteenth century B.C.Its missing head happened to be among rem ains of the fifth century B.C.This head must have been found in classical times and ca refully preserved.It was very old and precious even then.When the archaeologists rec onstructed the fragments,they were amazed to find that the goddess turned out to be a very modern-looking woman.She stood three feet high and her hands rested on her hi ps.She was wearing a full-length skirt which swept the ground.Despite her great age, she was very graceful indeed,but,so far,the archaeologists have been unable to disc over her identity.译文不久之前，在爱琴海的基亚岛上，考古工作者有一项有趣的发现。

21世纪大学英语读写教程第三册第5单元课文详析

21世纪大学英语读写教程第三册第5单元课文详析21世纪大学英语读写教程第三册第5单元课文详析导语：美国与欧洲是有差异的，下面是一篇关于美国与欧洲观念的英语课文，欢迎大家学习。

Pre-reading Activities1. As you listen to the passage, write down the idioms and expressions that match each definition below. Warning: One of the definitions fits two expressions that you'll hear.______ a) a child who learns to survive by observing life on city streets______ b) competitive strategies used in business______ c) 100% American______ d) unhealthy food______ e) a popular American dessert______ f) an activity, decision, problem, etc., that concerns only family members2. How would you answer Li's last question?The ABCs of the U.S.A.: America Seen with European Eyes Michael DobbsAmerica can be a strange experience for a foreigner. My wife and I arrived in the United States in January after seven years overseas — four in France, three in Poland. From the jumble of first impressions, we compiled an A-to-Z explanation of why America can be such a foreign country to those who arrive here from Europe.I should explain at the outset that I am from Britain, but my Florida-born wife Lisa is as American as apple pie. In our list, however, A doesn't stand for apple pie. It stands for:Ambition. In the Old World, people are taught to hide it. Hereit's quite proper to announce that you're after the boss's job or want to make a million dollars by the age of 30.Breakfast. The American habit of conducting business at breakfast has reached Europe, but I doubt it will ever really catch on. In France and Britain, breakfast is a family affair. Here, it's become part of the power game.Credit Cards. You really can't leave home without them. It's interesting, and somewhat frustrating, to discover that bad credit is better than no credit at all: I was refused a VISA card on the grounds that I didn't have a credit profile.Dreams. The American Dream is still very much alive. Dreaming great dreams is what keeps American society going —from the waitress who wants to become a car dealer to the street kid who wants to become a basketball star. Europeans dream dreams too, but don't seem to believe in them so much.Exercise. A couple of years ago I came to Washington with some French journalists. As our bus passed a health club on the way to the hotel, the French visitors cheered at the sight of body-conscious Americans bending, stretching and leaping around. America's obsession with physical fitness really amuses —and puzzles — Europeans.First names. In Europe, people progress in a natural and orderly way from the use of last names to the use of first names. Here, it's first names at first sight. This can cause confusion for Europeans. With everyone on a first-name basis, how can you tell your acquaintances from your friends?Gadgets. These can be addictive. It's difficult to imagine now how we survived for so long without automatic ice machines and microwave ovens.Hardware Stores. If I were in charge of arranging theprograms of visiting delegations from lessdeveloped countries, I'd include a compulsory visit to a hardware store. These temples of American capitalism reveal a whole range of American values, from the do-it-yourself pioneer spirit through a love of comfort that absolutely astonishes most foreigners.Insurance. Americans have policies to cover every possible risk, no matter how remote. So far, we've refused supplementary insurance for our car radio, death insurance for our mortgage and accident insurance for our cat. It gives us a feeling of living dangerously.Junk food. Anyone who wants to understand why Americans suffer from higher rates of cancer and heart disease only has to look at what they eat.Ketchup. I had to come to America to discover that it can be eaten with anything — from French fries to French cheese.Lines. American lines —beginning with the yellow line at immigration control —are the most orderly in the world. The British queue, once internationally renowned, has begun to decay in recent years. The French queue was never very impressive, and the Italian line is simply a mob.Money. In Europe, everybody likes money, but no one shows it off. Unless it's been in the family for several generations, there's often an assumption that it was acquired dishonestly. In America, no one cares how you got it.No smoking. No longer just a polite request in America, this phrase has become the law. Nobody would dare ask a Frenchman to put out his Galoise in a restaurant.Oliver North. What other major Western democracy lets army officers take over foreign policy? A hero for some, a traitor for others, Ollie (see First Names) is an example of an Americanrecklessness that awes and alarms Europeans.Patriots. They exist everywhere, of course, but the American version is louder and more self-conscious than the European. In Britain, it's taken for granted that politicians love their country. Here, they're expected to prove it.Quiet. American cities are quieter than European cities —thanks to noise controls on automobiles and to recent environmental legislation. This was a major surprise for someone brought up to assume that America was a noisy place.Religion. The idea of putting preachers on TV is alarming to Europeans. It's even more alarming to see them in action.Sales. Ever since arriving in Washington, we've been hurrying to take advantage of this week's unrepeatable offer, only to discover that it's usually repeated next week. We're just catching on that there's always an excuse for a sale.Television. That grown-ups can watch game shows and sitcoms at 11 AM amazes me — but the national habit, day or night, is contagious. I recently found myself nodding in agreement with a professor who was saying that American kids watch too much television. Then I realized that I was watching him say this on television.Ulcers. See Work.Visas. Americans don't need visas to visit Britain (or most European countries, for that matter). To enter the United States, I had to sign a document promising that I would not overthrow the government by force and had no criminal record. One wonders if many terrorists and criminals answer "yes" on these questionnaires.Work. People in less developed countries often imagine that they can become rich simply by emigrating to America. ButAmerica became a wealthy society through work, work and more work. It's still true.X-rated movies. We have them in Europe too, but not on motel-room TVs.Yuppies. The European counterpart remains a pale shadow of the all-American original. The animal seems more ambitious, and more common, on this side of the Atlantic.Zillion. What other nation would invent a number that's infinitely more than a billion? America may not always be the best, but it certainly thinks big.New Wordsjumblen. a confused or untidy group of things 杂乱的一堆* compilevt. produce by putting together many pieces (e.g., of information) 汇编;编制outsetn. beginning 开始;起始ambitionn. strong desire for success, power, money, etc. 对(成功、权力、金钱等的)强烈欲望，野心;雄心profilen. 1. a short article or programme which describes a person's life and character 传略，人物简介2. a side view, esp. of sb.'s head; a shape of sth. seen againsta background 侧面，侧影;轮廓vt. 1. 写…的传略2. 给…画侧面像;描…的轮廓* dealern. a person whose business involves buying and selling 商人;证券经纪人journalistn. a person who works on a newspaper or magazine and writes articles for it 新闻记者;报纸撰稿人journaln. 1. a magazine for people with a particular interest 杂志，期刊2. an account which one writes of one's daily activities 日志;日记leap (leapt or leaped)vi. jump high in the air or jump a long distance 跳跃n. a sudden jump or movement; a sudden increase in number, amount, etc. 跳跃;激增* obsessionn. a fixed idea from which the mind cannot be freed 着迷;困扰physical fitnesshealthy body conditions 身体健康amusevt. make (sb.) laugh; cause to spend time in a pleasant way 逗乐;给…提供娱乐或消遣amusinga.

大英3课文SummaryUNIT 11.1 catching crabsIn the fall of our final year,our mood changed.The relaxed atmosphere had disappeared, and peer group pressure to work hard was strong. Meanwhile,at the back of everyone’s mind was what we would do next after graduation. As for me,I wanted to travel,and I wanted to be a writer.I braced myself for some resistance to the idea from my father,who wanted me to go to law school,and follow his path through life.However,he supported what I wanted but he made me think about it by watching the crabs.The cage was full of crabs. One of them was trying to escape,but each time it reached the top the other crabs pulled it back.In the end it gave up lengthy struggle to escape and started to prevent other crabs from escaping.By watching crabs,my father told me not to be pulled back by others,and to get to know himself better.1.2We are all dyingLife is short.We never quite know when we become coffin dwellers or trampled ash in the rose garden of some local ceremony.So there’s no point in putting our dreams on the back burner until the right time arrives.Now is the time to do what we want to do. Make the best of our short stay and fill our life with the riches on offer so that when the reaper arrives,we’ve achieved much instead of regrets.UNIT 22.1supermanThe extract from Johnny Panic and the Bible of Dreams by Sylvia Plath is a combination of her real life and imaginary life in her childhood.In the real life,Plath was a winner of the prize for drawing the best Civil Defense signs,lived by an airport and had an Uncle who bore resemblance to Superman.In her imagination,the airport was her Mecca and Jerusalem because of her flying dreams.Superman fulfilled her dream at the moment.David Stirling,a bookish boy,also worship Superman.During the recess at school,he and the author played Superman pared with their school-mates who played the routine games,they felt they were outlaws but had a sense of windy superiority.They also found a stand-in,Sheldon Fein, who later invented tortures.2.2cultual childhoodsHistorically,childhood has undergone enormous transformations in terms of children’s responsibilities and parental expectations.Culturally,childhood is socially constructed.The interplay of history and cultural leads to different understanding of childhood,consequently it is advisable not to impose ideas from one culture to understand childhood in another culture. UNIT 33.1how we listenFor the sake of clarify,we split up the process of listening to music into three hypothetical planes.Firstly,the sensuous plane.It is a kind of brainless but attractive state of mind engendered by the mere sound appeal of the music.Secondly,the expressive plane.It is when we believe each piece of music has a theme,which mirrors a different world of feeling,such as gaiety,sadness.Thirdly,the musical plane.It is the ability to experience different musicalelements,such as melodies,the rhythms,the harmonies,the tone colors etc.We usually listen to music on all three planes.3.2the mystery of Girl with a Pearl EarringThe painting Girl with a Pearl Earring is one of Dutch painter Johannes Vermeer’s masterworks.It shows a striking young woman wearing an exotic costume and a turban,peering over her shoulder straight out at the viewer.As the name implies,it uses a pearl earring for a focal point.It has been referred to as the Mona Lisa of the north,because,like Leonardo da Vinci’s painting,it appears to be a simple likeness of a woman with an enigmatic smile,yet which contains levels of meanings and questions.So much mystery in the painting contributes to its worldwide popularity and generates a thoroughly rewarding novel and a well-composed film.UNIT 44.1work in corporate AmericaIn today’s American jobs are not what they used to be.Not long ago,when a fathe r was asked about his job he could answer in terms that a child could come to grips with.Nowadays,when the parent take his offspring to his place of business in glass buildings that are really incomprehensive to children.What’s more,it’s safe bet that even grown men have trouble visualizing what other men does in their jobs with his day.Therefore,it’s not difficult to imagine a poor child may answer”mulling over” after it beats me the mysteries of work,when his friends asks him of his father’s job.4.2our supposedly exciting times are really rather dullLiving in a world of unprecedented/dazzling change,there are never been anything quite like it.However,we are just ignorant of/about deeper historical patterns,take globalization for example,from historical context point of view,the world is almost meaningless.We simply do not live in a age of great technological innovation for all our enthusiasm about internet and iPod.With staggering 90 percent of all web traffic is local,we are always be told the Internet has “opened up”the world.As the Chinese curse runs “May you live in interesting times”,it can bring chaos and anxiety in the in the wake.UNIT 55.1dinner at Joanne’sWhen a young black man arrives in a crowded and expensive restaurant,the head waiter makes him sit in the least comfortable place,even though a table has been booked for him and a “Ms Rogers”.When Ms Rogers arrives,the waiter realizes that she is a well-known Senator; and Ms Roger realizes that her friend has been treated badly because of the color of his skin.The waiter realizes his mistake too,and tries to make up for it,but it’s too late.5.2we theyThe writer uses stories about doing business between Swedes and Saudis to illustrate the differences between an individualist and a collectivist approach to business. They have different concepts of the role of personal relationships in business. The Swedes believe the business is done with a company while the Saudis think it should be done with a person they know and trust.Then the writer compares the characteristics of the collectivist and those of the individualist.In the most collectivist societies,the families are usually extended families while in theindividualist societies,nuclear families are prevalent. People consider themselves as part of a “we”group or in-group in the collectivist societies.In contrast, the individualist think of themselves as “I”,their personal identity which is distinct from other people’s. A practical and psychological dependence relationship develops between the person and the in-group in the collectivist societies. However, rarely do people depend on a group in the individualist societies. UNIT 66.1 Last man downThe text from Last Ma Down offers an eyewitness account of defining historical event of 9/11 attack from the perspective of Richard Picciotto, a firefighter; his story is that of a man, a hero,and a tragic event that inspired the nation. His recount isn’t one of death and destruction, but a celebration of life and it’s unpredictable nature.6.2 Eleanor RooseveltThe passage offers a hero who contrasts with brave firefighters. This time she is a woman of power and previlege who still wanted to devote herself to the sucess she believed in.Living in a male-dominated world, Eleanor Roosevelt showed growing con cern for women’s issues, along with those for labor issues,youth and civil rights issues.Eleanor created new First Lady profile. She held a press conference for the female only. She was a great supporter for FDR, her wheel-bound husband, whose career as the US president offered her opportunity to come into her own.After FDR’s departure, she still held public posts to use her power to her beliefs.Anna Eleanor Roosevelt never ran on a par with men, she set the place.。

summary(大学英语3概要)

Unit OnePassage OneWhat are the most important issues for students today? Is the university campus really such a different place compared to what it was 40 years ago?For the students in the 1960s, going to college was the most exciting and stimulating experience of their life. They took part in protests and launched strikes against the establishment with their new and passionate commitment to freedom and justice. Going to college also meant their first taste of real freedom. They could discuss the meaning of life, read their first forbidden book and see their first indie film.In contrast, the students today don’t have the passion for college life that they used to. Today, college is seen as a kind of small town from which people are keen to escape. Instead of the heady atmosphere of freedom which students in the 1960s discovered, students today are much more serious. College has become a means to an end , an opportunity to improve their prospects of being competitive in the employment market, and not an end in itself.But in spite of all this, the role of the university is the same as it always has been. It is the place where students havethe opportunity to learn to think for themselves.Psaaage TwoOlder generations generally have a negative attitude to today’s stu dents, the product of postmodern times. Today’s students are expected to accomplish anything in an era with extraordinary opportunities and privileges. It would seem they do the opposite. They direct their energy on the Internet communicating ideas and frustrations, instead of trying to assert their identity by revolution. Perhaps when they are not told about what their parents did before, they will be seen writing the revolution in technology.Unit TwoPassage TwoThis is Sandy is an extract from Tone, a story about the life of a deaf girl. She thinks her friends are honorable people who beam with pride when they introduce her to someone new. When people find out she is deaf they are mostly shocked for a moment at first but pretend not to be. Sandy says that thehearing aids she saw in a catalog are great fashion accessories, they’re just like a clip you put onto your ear. Sandy likes to show her hearing aid. She doesn’t tie her hair up in a knot but she tucks it behind her ears. Sandy’s friend Carol introduces her to a boy called Colin at a party. They sit together on a couch and Colin realizes that Sandy can understand what he is saying by reading his lips. Someone turns up the volume of the music and they dance together. Soon they are dating. This is when the real drama begins.Unit FourPassage OneWhat exactly is news? The objective importance and the historical, international significance of an event is not enough. It is the odd, unexpected and human nature that made news like 9/11 memorable and newsworthy. So is immediacy which refers to the nearness of the event in time.When it comes to immediacy, those media like TV, radio and Internet have an enormous advantage over the press. However, no matter what form it may take, all the media more or less covertly, influence the public. That is so called the powerof the media.In the new millennium, maybe the press or TV are not going to disappear overnight, but the power of the media may be eroded or at least devolved to ordinary people.Passage TwoAll over the English-speaking world, newspaper circulation has been confronted with a long-term trend of decline. The decline comes much from the challenge of internet and the negative environmental impact of newspaper industry. The challenge of internet mainly focuses on its attraction to readers and minute-by-minute ads monitoring system. But maybe the newspaper won’t die without struggle. Besides its convenience over laptop, the demand for local news and the exploitation of lifestyle journalism will create new revenue streams. And more interestingly, the ritual of reading the newspaper has become a hard habit to break.Unit SevenPassage OneOn a cold, windy morning, I was hanging up the laundry in the backyard, while Hogahn was playing a two-foot oak branch that had fallen into his loving possession. Focused on capturing the sheet which was trying to sail off over the pond to join the sky so that it draped evenly over the line, I distractedly picked up the stick and tossed it down the hill toward the fence that separated the yard from the water. But the stick went further than I expected and fell into the pond. So did Hogahn, who raced to catch the stick. I was penetratingly aware of the dangers of drowning in the icy pond, but I still walked into it to save the dog. After I carried him out of the water and rubbed him with a towel, Hogahn went over and examined my wet clothes on the floor. He was pleased that we had shared a dramatic experience together.Passage TwoAnimals used to be compared to machines programmed to react to stimuli. They were not considered capable of , feeling or thinking and certainly not of understanding abstract concepts. However, new studies have shown that intelligence is not limited to us human beings as well as species with whom wehave a common ancestor. Elephants can recognize themselves in a mirror and birds can understand many concepts. Scientists now believe that intelligence evolves to suit the environment in the same way that bodies do. As a result, they suggest that we should reconsider the way we treat animals.Unit NinePassage OneIn the old days student life at university was easy. Students didn’t have to work too hard. They usually managed to keep up with the work by dashing off the week’s essay at the last minute. But today with no shortage of graduates, competition is tough, and students are spending more time preparing for dreaded final exams, or doing low-paid part-time jobs to pay off debts.But that’s the problem that th ey lack the basic skills to get ahead in the global market. One solution is believed to include social skills in degree courses, for example, working in teams and contributing to the community. This approach will help many students develop personal skills which will help improve their prospects in their search for a job, and gain a wealth of experience to be added to the CV, which will not go unnoticedby future employers[文档可能无法思考全面，请浏览后下载，另外祝您生活愉快，工作顺利，万事如意!]。

Unit 1 sectionA我哥哥吉米出生时遇上难产，因为缺氧导致大脑受损。

我出生了。

从此以后，我的生活便围绕我哥哥转。

伴随我成长的，是“到外面去玩，把你哥哥也带上。

”不带上他，我是哪里也去不了的。

因此，我怂恿邻居的孩子到我家来，尽情地玩孩子们玩的游戏。

我母亲教吉米学习日常自理，比如刷牙或系皮带什么的。

我父亲宅心仁厚，他的耐心和理解使一家人心贴着心。

我则负责外面的事，找到那些欺负我哥哥的孩子们的父母，告他们的状，为我哥哥讨回公道。

父亲和吉米形影不离。

他们一道吃早饭，平时每天早上一道开车去海军航运中心，他们都在那里工作，吉米在那搬卸标有彩色代号的箱子。

晚饭后，他们一道交谈，玩游戏，直到深夜。

他们甚至用口哨吹相同的曲调。

所以，父亲1991年因心脏病去世时，吉米几乎崩溃了，尽管他尽量不表现出来。

他就是不能相信父亲去世这一事实。

通常，他是一个令人愉快的人，现在却一言不发，无论说多少话都不能透过他木然的脸部表情了解他的心事。

我雇了一个人和他住在一起，开车送他去上班。

然而，不管我怎么努力地维持原状，吉米还是认为他熟悉的世界已经消失了。

有一天，我问他：“你是不是想念爸爸？”他的嘴唇颤抖了几下，然后问我：“你怎么看，玛格丽特？他是我最好的朋友。

”接着，我俩都流下了眼泪。

六个月后，母亲因肺癌去世，剩下我一人来照顾吉米。

吉米不能马上适应去上班时没有父亲陪着，因此搬来纽约和我一起住了一段时间。

我走到哪里他就跟到哪里，他好像适应得很好。

但吉米依然想住在我父母的房子里，继续干他原来的工作。

我答应把他送回去。

此事最后做成了。

如今，他在那里生活了11年，在许多人的照料下，同时依靠自己生活得有声有色。

他已成了邻里间不可或缺的人物。

如果你有邮件要收，或有狗要遛，他就是你所要的人。

当然，母亲的话没错：可以有一个家，既能容纳他的缺陷又能装下我的雄心。

事实上，关照像吉米这样一个深爱又感激我的人，更加丰富了我的生活，其他任何东西都不能与之相比。

However， as the evidence began to accumulate, experts from the Zoo felt obliged to investigate, for the descriptions given by people who claimed to have seen the puma were extraordinarily similar。

The hunt for the puma began in a small village where a woman picking blackberries saw ’a large cat’ only five yards away from her. It immediately ran away when she saw it, and experts confirmed that a puma will not attack a human being unless it is cornered（adj。

被困得走投无路的）. The search proved difficult, for the puma was often observed at one place in the morning and at another place twenty miles away in the evening。
