新概念英语第三册第31课:A lovable eccentricLesson 31 A lovable eccentric可爱的怪人Listen to the tape then answer the question below.听录音，然后回答以下问题。
Why did the shop assistant refuse to serve Dickie?True eccentrics never deliberately set out to draw attention to themselves. They disregard social conventions without being conscious that they are doing anything extraordinary. This invariably wins them the love and respect of others, for they add colour to the dull routine of everyday life.Up to the time of his death, Richard Colson was one of the most notable figures in our town. He was a shrewd and wealthy businessman, but most people in the town hardly knew anything about this side of his life. He was known to us all as Dickie and his eccentricity had become legendary long before he died.Dickie disliked snobs intensely. Though he owned a large car, he hardly ever used it, preferring always to go on foot. Even when it was raining heavily, he refused to carry an umbrella. One day, he walked into an expensive shop after having been caught in a particularly heavy shower. He wanted to buy a $300 watch for his wife, but he was in such a bedraggled condition than an assistant refused to serve him. Dickie left the shop without a word and returned carrying a large cloth bag. As it was extremely heavy, he dumped it on the counter. The assistant asked him to leave, but Dickie paid no attention to him and requested to see the manager. Recognizing who the customer was, the manager was most apologetic and reprimanded the assistant severely. When Dickie was given the watch, the presented the assistant with the cloth bag.It contained $300 in pennies. He insisted on the assistant's counting the money before he left -- 30,000 pennies in all! On another occasion, he invited a number of important critics to see his private collection of modern paintings. This exhibition received a great deal of attention in the press, for though the pictures were supposed to be the work of famous artists, they had in fact been painted by Dickie. It took him four years to stage this elaborate joke simply to prove that critics do not always know what they are talking about.参考译文真正古怪的人从不有意引人注意。
新概念英语第三册 31-40 课后作文标准答案
Lesson 31 A lovable eccentricKey to CompositionA possible answerA true eccentricMr. Chew is a man who has lived in our small town for years. He is a large man (some would say "fat"), he has a round face, a big black moustache and a bald head. He always wears the same clothes—black trousers, a white shirt and a red waistcoat, and is always po-lite to everyone he meets.He owns an antiques shop near the river, and he lives "over the shop". No one knows where he gets his things, but there are always lots of different interesting antiques in the shop window every week.Mr. Chew is interested in politics, too. Every week he puts up strange notices in his shop window to passers-by. Usually the notices are trying to make people save a local building or stop a plan to build a road through the town. Every time there is a national election, he automatically stands for parliament and gives speeches almost every day in the town park saying what he would do if he were Prime Minis-ter. (He usually says he would make sure that antiques dealers did not have to pay Income Tax and that no cars should be allowed into our little town at all. ) Every year he gets a few votes, but not enough to worry the serious candidates.For most people Mr. Chew is a harmless eccentric, and everyone likes talking to him. After all, he is someone who adds colour to the dull routine of their daily lives. (248words)Lesson 32 A lost shipKey to CompositionA possible answerThe last dayThe journey has gone well so far. We are now on the way to Russia and hope that we shall arrive with no more problems. But we are watching the sea and sky. The convoy successfully fought off an air attack early this morning. No ships were lost and we managed to shoot , down threeenemy aircraft before they broke off the attack.At 10 a. m. this morning we were attacked by a U-boat. This was the first time we had been attacked and for most men on board this was the first time they had been in action at sea. We were fortunate, but the ship ahead of us, the Dauntless, was torpedoed and sunk. After the ship sank, there were hundreds of men in the sea. We picked up as many survivors as we could in the Karen. In fact in [ the end we picked up 720 men, which meant that 50 men lost their lives in the attack on the Dauntless,The Karen was packed with men, many crowded on the open decks, when we turned and attacked the U-boat. Depth charges were I dropped and the U-boat was put out of action.It is now 3. 15 p. m. , the light is already beginning to fade and storm clouds are gathering. We are about to be attacked by a second U-boat, this time from the north. The captain has just announced —(239words)Lesson 33 A day to rememberKey to CompositionA possible answerMistaken identityWe have all experienced days when everything seems to go wrong. Things certainly went wrong for Ray, a friend of mine, one day last month. It all started, as these things do, with a simple case of "mistaken identity". Ray had been shopping and was loaded with par-cels when he got back to the multi-storey car park to look for his car. He knew he was on the correct level, but he couldn't see his car any-where.Then, suddenly, while he was looking, he saw one exactly like it. It was a red Nissan. It was exactly the same as his own car, and naturally he mistook it for his own. Still holding the parcels, he felt in his jacket pockets and found his key. He tried to open the driver's door, but the key just wouldn't turn. He couldn't understand it. In the end, he forced the lock — and naturally broke the key.At that point he dropped the parcels as well. This infuriated him. The only way he could get into his car was to break a window, so he deliberately smashed the window of the car. As he was putting his hand in, the owner came back and saw him. The owner rushed to-wards Ray, held him against the car, and called a policeman on his mobile phone.When Ray was arrested, he tried to explain, but the police did not believe him — until they found Ray's car on a level below! (246words)Lesson 34 A happy discoveryKey to CompositionA possible answerAn antique shop"The Antique Shop" has been in the little street near the church for years. As you look at it from across the road, it draws you to-wards it. It has one large window display designed to attract all sorts of customers. There is expensive glass, porcelain and jewellery to at-tract people with a lot of money; there is second-hand furniture, modem silver and other things (hardly antique!) to attract those with not so much.When you enter the shop, a little bell rings and the owner, a little grey-haired old lady called Mrs, Century, comes out from a room at the back and greets you like a lost relative! She greets everyone the same and always with a smile.The shop sells all kinds of antiques. There are shelves full of old books along the back of the shop. There are two large tables in the middle of the shop covered with pieces of glass and porcelain. Then, around the walls on the floor are large pots, brass statues and things. There are lots of painting on the walls, too. At the weekend, the shop usually has five or six customers in it at one time. You might find a professional antique collector, a holiday couple and a young mother (with child in pram) looking for a cheap antique for her husband's birthday.We all like looking for unusual things and hope to find a bargain one day. You might find one in Mrs. Century's "Antique Shop". (249words)Lesson 35 Justice was doneKey to CompositionA possible answerA burglary that went wrongThere is a large jewellery store in the town that I have often wanted to rob. A few weeks ago I started planning the theft and kept a close watch on the shop. I noticed when people went in and out, when they started and finished work, and so on. And I noticed the chimneys, too.One night I climbed onto the roof of the store and looked for a way in. One of the chimneys seemed wide enough for me to get in, ss I started climbing down. Very soon, however, I got stuck and had to climb out again. I didn't give up. I looked around, found another chimney that looked quite wide at the top and climbed down that one. Again I got stuck.This time, however, I was really stuck. I could climb neither up nor down. At first I struggled to try to free myself, but I couldn't get out. Then I started to get scared and started sweating. I tried to calm myself by quietly counting and thinking of pleasant things. But nothing worked and finally I started shouting for help. Nothing happened, everything was dark and silent, and I got more and more frightened.I think I went to sleep because I suddenly realized that light was shining down the chimney. I shouted and shouted. Eventually I heard tapping and was finally freed by Fire fighters who had smashed a hole in the chimney. (240words)Lesson 36 A chance in a millionkey to CompositionA Possible answerThe pastWhen the war finished, Franz Bussman did everything he could to get information about his brother Hans. With no information, he reluctantly assumed his brother was dead, and gave up the searchWith no family, and having been unable to find his brother, Franze found it difficult to settle down. Over the years he moved from place to place and from job to job, never staying very long in one place.When he met Anna (now Mrs. Bussman), he was working as a waiter in a hotel. He and Anna got married and Franz settled down at last. He moved from the dinning room into the kitchen of the hotel and became a cook. But this did not last very long. He was talking to a friend one day, a taxi driver, who suggested that they should go into partnership So they did, and Franz became a taxi driver. He and the friend drove taxis themselves, but they also soon owned four more taxis and employed four drivers.He visited his home town once to visit his old house, but it was a sad visit. There was a large modem block of flats where his family house used to be. ' And although he spoke to some of the apartment owners, no one remembered him or his family. Now that he has finally found his brother Hans, he and Anna are planning to invite Hans to come and live near them and work as a taxi driver in the company. (250words)Lesson 37 The Westhaven ExpressKey to CompositionA possible answerA disastrous train journeyWhen. I finally boarded the train. I was looking forward to a pleasant journey to the village of Slowleigh where my friends live. I sat in my seat, got out a book and was already reading when the train startedAccording to the timetable, the train was due to arrive in Slowleight at 4. 30. I had been so interested in my book that I had a shock when I looked at my watch. It was almost 4. 30. I closed my book and waited for the train to slow down. It didn't. In fact, the train was going very fast —and that was Slowleigh, wasn't it?! The train went straight on. I asked the other passengers why the train hadn't stopped and they told me it was the express to the city. I didn't believe it.Then the ticket collector came along. He looked at my ticket and I tried to explain, but in the end I had to pay the full fare to the city.By the time we arrived in the city it was six o'clock. The journey had lasted two hours and I was miles away from my original destination. I rang my friends and said I would get a fast train back. Then I checked the timetable: there was no fast train back to Slowleigh, only a slow one, at 7 o'clock. By the time I finally reached Slowleigh Station, it was nine o'clock at night. My pleasant little train journey had taken 4. 5 hours! (250words)Lesson 38 The first calendarKey to CompositionA possible answerStudying the pastFuture historians will have plenty of sources from which to learn about twentieth-century man. Not only will they have the written word, they will also have films, videos, audio cassettes, CDs and . CD-ROMs. In fact, they will have so much source material that they will hardly know where to start!If they study all the material available, they will be able to build up a complete social and political history of our time. They will know exactly how we dressed, what we ate in every different country and they will know exactly what our homes were like. They will know what our towns and cities were like and what forms of entertainment we enjoyed. In fact, they will not only learn about our forms of en-tertainment, they will be able to enjoy a lot of them, too — our music, plays, musical shows, video games, our art, our literature, . . . . And they will be able to read and see the news day by day as it happened.They will learn in detail the way we fought our wars — the way we used jet fighters, helicopters, ships and tanks. They will be able to learn every detail of great moments in history, and everything about leading figures of the time as well as the lives of ordinary, men and women.In future, the study of history will provide interest and excitement for a lot of people, the past will be brought to life and history will no longer be boring.(249 words)Lesson 39 Nothing to worry aboutKey to CompositionA possible answerBruce remained unperturbedIt was typical of Bruce to announce "cheerfully" that there was no oil in the engine! For the restof us, it was a disaster. We all got out and began shouting at him and then at each other. What could we do? We were standing in the middle of a very large pool up to our ankles in water with a car that was useless.We tried to push it, but of course it was absolutely impossible. All we managed to do was to push it deeper into the soft mud. In the end we all walked to next village where we tried to get a taxi so that we could take some oil (and petrol) back to the car.We couldn't find one driver who would take us over the rough road. Fortunately there was a small garage and we paid a large sum of money to the garage owner to rent a jeep. With a can of oil and an extra can of petrol we all climbed in and set off.When we eventually got back to the pool, we attached a rope from the jeep to the car and pulled the car out of the water. We were not surprised to find that the engine was badly damaged, and would not even start with the oil we had brought back. Disaster again, but Bruce was undismayed!(230 words)Lesson 40 Who's whoKey lo CompositionA possible answerArrest the policeThe policeman who accompanied the workman lo the pay phone still did not realize that they had been the victims of a practical joke. When he and the worker returned to the scene of the hoax right outside the university gates, the other workman was still quarrelling with the police and resisting arrest.Following the worker's call to the police station, it was not long before more police arrived on the scene — and it is at this point that the story becomes very complicated! The workmen told the police who had just arrived that the first lot of policemen were actually stu-dents dressed up as policemen. The second lot of police therefore threatened to arrest the first lot of police, but before they did so, they asked for their identity cards. The first lot ignored this request and said that they really were policemen, but that the workmen were stu-dents. The workers had to prove their identity, too, they said.None of them had to prove their identity by showing identity cards, because at this point two or three of the policemen started laugh-ing, and then the workmen started laughing, and in the endthey were all laughing. They finally realized that they had all been victims of a hoax — and not one of them could remember what the student had looked like. "After all, " said one workman, "they all look the same tome. " (237 wards)。

The small ship, Elkor, which had been searching the BarentsSea for weeks, was on its way home. A radio message from the mainland had been received by the ship's captain instructing him to give up the search. The captain knew that another attempt would be made later, for the sunken ship he was trying to find had been carrying a precious cargo of gold bullion.Despite the message, the captain of the Elkor decided to try once more. The seabed was scoured with powerful nets and there was tremendous excitement on board when a chest was raised from the bottom. Though the crew were at first under the impression that the lost ship had been found, the contents of the sea-chest proved them wrong. What they had in fact found was a ship which had been sunk many years before.The chest contained the personal belongings of a seaman, Alan Fielding. There were books, clothing and photographs, together with letters which the seaman had once received from his wife. The captain of the Elkor ordered his men to salvage as much as possible from the wreck. Nothing of value was found, but the numerous items which were brought to the surface proved to be of great interest. From a heavy gun that was raised, the captain realized that the ship must have been a cruiser. In another sea-chest, which contained the belongings of a ship's officer, there was an unfinished letter which had been written on March 14th, 1943. The captain learnt from the letter that the name of the lost ship was the Karen. The most valuable find of all was the ship's log book, parts of which it was still possible to read. From this the captain was able to piece together all the information that had come to light. The Karen had been sailing in a convoy to Russia when she was torpedoed by an enemy submarine. This was later confirmed by a naval official at the Ministry of Defence after the Elkor had returned home. All the items that were found were sent to the War Museum.New words and expressionssalvage[ˈsælvidʒ]vt.抢救，营救Barents巴伦支海sunken [ˈsʌŋkən]sink的过去分词a. 沉没的cargo [ˈkɑ:gəu]n.(船、飞机等装载的)货物bullion[ˈbuljən]n.金条，银条scour[ˈskauə]vt.四处搜索；洗涤；冲刷chest[tʃest]n.胸，胸腔；柜子，橱contents[ˈkɔ:ntents]n.容纳物；要旨belongings[biˈlɔŋiŋz]n.所有物，财产item[ˈaitəm]n.条(款)，项目；[新闻等的]一条，一则cruiser[ˈkru:zə]n.巡洋舰；游艇find[faind]vt.发现；感到；判决n.(有价值的)发现物log book固定词组ph.

A day may begin well enough, but suddenly everything seems to get out of control. What invariably happens is that a great number of things choose to go wrong at precisely the same moment. It is as if a single unimportant event set up a chain of reactions. Let us suppose that you are preparing a meal and keeping an eye on the baby at the same time. The telephone rings and this marks the prelude to an unforeseen series of catastrophes. While you are on the phone, the baby pulls the table-cloth off the table smashing half your best crockery and cutting himself in the process. You hang up hurriedly and attend to baby, crockery, etc. Meanwhile, the meal gets burnt. As if this were not enough to reduce you to tears, your husband arrives, unexpectedly bringing three guests to dinner.Things can go wrong on a big scale as a number of people recently discovered in Parramatta, a suburb of Sydney. During the rush hour one evening two cars collided and both drivers began to argue. The woman immediately behind the two cars happened to be a learner. She suddenly got into a panic and stopped her car. This made the driver following her brake hard. His wife was sitting beside him holding a large cake. As she was thrown forward, the cake went right through the windscreen and landed on the road. Seeing a cake flying through the air, a lorry-driver, who was drawing up alongside the car, pulled up all of a sudden. The lorry was loaded with empty beer bottles and hundreds of them slid off the back of the vehicle and on to the road. This led to yet another angry argument. Meanwhile, the traffic piled up behind. It took the police nearly an hour to get the traffic on the move again. In the meantime, the lorry-driver had to sweep up hundreds of broken bottles. Only two stray dogs benefited from all this confusion, for they greedily devoured what was left of the cake. It was just one of those days!New words and expressionsprelude[ˈprelju:d]n.序曲unforeseen ['ʌnfɔ:'si:n] a.未预见到的;预料之外的series[ˈsiəri:z]n.一系列，连续；丛书，连续剧catastrophe [kəˈtæstrəfi]n.大灾难，灾祸crockery[ˈkrɔkədail]n.鳄鱼，鳄鱼皮suburb[ˈsʌbə:b]n.市郊，郊区collide[kəˈlaid]vi.碰撞，互撞；冲突，抵learner [ˈlə:nə]学习者panic[ˈpænik]n.恐(惊)慌v.(使)恐慌，(使)惊慌失措windscreen ['windskri:n] n.汽车挡风玻璃alongside[əlɔŋˈsaid]ad.在旁边prep.在...旁边；和...一起slide [slaid]v.滑动，下滑；悄悄地移动n.滑动，下滑stray[strei]vi.走失；走神a.迷路的n.走失的家畜confusion[kənˈfju:ʒən]n.困惑，糊涂；混淆；混乱，骚乱greedily[ˈgri:dili]ad.贪婪地devour [diˈvauə]vt.吞食；(热切地)读；吞没；充满好奇Antique shops exert a peculiar fascination on a great many people. The more expensive kind of antique shop where rare objects are beautifully displayed in glass cases to keep them free from dust is usually a forbidding place. But no one has to muster up courage to enter a less pretentious antique shop. There is always hope that in its labyrinth of musty, dark, disordered rooms a real rarity will be found amongst the piles of assorted junk that litter the floors.No one discovers a rarity by chance. A truly dedicated searcher for art treasures must have patience, and above all, the ability to recognize the worth of something when he sees it. To do this, he must be at least as knowledgeable as the dealer. Like a scientist bent on making a discovery, he must cherish the hope that one day he will be amply rewarded.My old friend, Frank Halliday, is just such a person. He has often described to me how he picked up a masterpiece for a mere &5. One Saturday morning, Frank visited an antique shop in my neighbourhood. As he had never been there before, he found a great deal to interest him. The morning passed rapidly and Frank was about to leave when he noticed a large packing-case lying on the floor. The dealer told him that it had just come in, but that he could not be bothered to open it. Frank begged him to do so and the dealer reluctantly prised it open. The contents were disappointing. Apart from an interesting-looking carved dagger, the box was full of crockery, much of it broken. Frank gently lifted the crockery out of the box and suddenly noticed a miniature Painting at the bottom of the packing-case.

We might say that justice has been done when a man's innocence or guilt has been proved beyond doubt. Justice is part of the complex machinery of the law. Those who seek it, undertake an arduous journey and can never be sure that they will find it. Judges, however wise or eminent, are human and can make mistakes.There are rare instances when justice almost ceases to be an abstract conception. Reward or punishment are out quite independent of human interference. At such times, justice acts like a living force. When we use a phrase like it serves him right, we are, in part, admitting that a certain set of circumstances has enabled justice to act of its own accord.When a thief was caught on the premises of a large fur store one morning, the shop assistants must have found it impossible to resist the temptation to say 'it serves him right'. The shop was an old-fashioned one with many large, disused fireplaces and tall, narrow chimneys. Towards midday, a girl heard a muffled cry coming from behind one of the walls. As the cry was repeated several times, she ran to tell the manager who promptly rang up the fire-brigade. The cry had certainly come from one of the chimneys, but as there were so many of them, the firemen could not be certain which one it was. They located the right chimney by tapping at the walls and listening for the man's cries. After chipping through a wall which was eighteen inches thick, they found that a man had been trapped in the chimney. As it was extremely narrow, the man was unable to move, but the firemen were eventually able to free him by cutting a huge hole in the wall. The sorry-looking, blackened figure that emerged, at once admitted that he had tried to break into the shop during the night but had got stuck in the chimney. He had been there for nearly ten hours. Justice had been done even before the man was handed over to the police.New words and expressionsjustice [ˈdʒʌstis]n.正义，公正；司法court [kɔ:t]n.法庭，法院law [lɔ:]n.法(律，规，学)innocence[ˈinəsəns]n.无罪；天真undertake [ˌʌndəˈteik]vt.承担，着手做arduous[ˈɑ:djuəs]a.辛劳的abstract[ˈæbstrækt]a.抽象(派)的n.摘要concept [ˈkɔnsept]n.概念，观念，思想mete out ph. 给予interference [ˌintəˈfiərəns]n.干涉，介入；阻碍，干扰accord [əˈkɔ:d]n.一致；协议 vi.(with)相一致vt.授予premises [ˈpremis]n.［pl.]房屋和地基，经营场址；前提convert [kənˈvə:t]v.(使)转变(化)；(使)改变信仰等disused英音：[dis'ju:zd] a. 废弃不用的fireplace [ˈfaiəpleis]n.壁炉muffle [ˈmʌfəl]vt.捂住chip[tʃip]n.碎片；[ pl.]炸土豆条；集成块vt.削(片)blacken[ˈblækən]v.(使)变黑，诽谤emerge[iˈmə:dʒ]vi.(from)浮(出)现；发生，显露，暴露Lesson 36 A chance in a millionWe are less credulous than we used to be. In the nineteenth century, a novelist would bring his story to a conclusion by presenting his readers with a series of coincidences --most of them wildly improbable. Readers happily accepted the fact that an obscure maid-servant was really the hero's mother. A long-lost brother, who was presumed dead, was really alive all the time and wickedly plotting to bring about the hero's downfall. And so on. Modern readers would find such naive solutions totally unacceptable. Yet, in real life, circumstances do sometimes conspire to bring about coincidences which anyone but a nineteenth century novelist would find incredible.When I was a boy, my grandfather told me a German taxi-driver, Franz Bussman, recently found a brother who was thought to have been killed twenty years before. While on a walking tour with his wife, he stopped to talk to a workman. After they had gone on, Mrs Bussman commented on the workman's close resemblance to her husband and even suggested that he might be his brother. Franz poured scorn on the idea, pointing out that his brother had been killed in action during the war. Though Mrs Bussman was fully acquainted with this story, she thought that there was a chance in a million that she might be right. A few days later, she sent a boy to the workman to ask him if his name was Hans Bussman, Needless to say, the man's name was Hans Bussman and he really was Franz's long-lost brother. When the brothers were reunited, Hans explained how it was that he was still alive. After having been wounded towards the end of the war, he had been sent to hospital and was separated from his unit. The hospital had been bombed and Hans had made his way back into Western Germany on foot. Meanwhile, his unit was lost and all records of him had been destroyed. Hans returned to his family home, but the house had been bombed and no one in the neighbourhood knew what had become of the inhabitants. Assuming that his family had been killed during an air-raid, Hans settled down in a Village fifty miles away where he had remained ever since.New words and expressionscredulous [ˈkredjuləs]a.轻信的improbable[imˈprɔbəbəl]a.未必有的obscure [əbˈskjuə]a.不著名的；费解的maidservant['meid,sə:vənt] n.女仆;婢女presume [priˈzju:m]vt.假定；擅(做)；认定vi.擅自行事wickedly['wikidli] ad. 邪恶地;凶恶地;恶劣地plot [plɔt]n.故事情节；密谋v.密谋；绘图downfall [ˈdaunfɔ:l]n.垮台，衰落naive[na:ˈi:v]a.幼稚的，轻信的；天真的unacceptable ['ʌnək'septəbl] a. 不能接受的conspire [kənˈspaiə]v.密谋；(事件等)巧合incredible[inˈkredəbəl]a.不可信的；不可思议的，惊人的resemblance[riˈzembləns]n.相似，形似scorn[skɔ:n]n./ vt.轻蔑，鄙视；拒绝，不屑(做)acquaint[əˈkweint]vt.(with)使认识，使了解reunite[ri:ˈju:njən]n.重聚，团聚；(久别后的)聚会assume[əˈsju:m]vt.假定，臆断；承担,担任;呈现Lesson 37 The Westhaven ExpressWe have learnt to expect that trains will be punctual. After years of pre-conditioning, most of us have developed an unshakable faith in railway time-tables. Ships may be delayed by storms; air flights may be cancelled because of bad weather; but trains must be on time. Only an exceptionally heavy snow fall might temporarily dislocate railway services. It is all too easy to blame the railway authorities when something does go wrong. The truth is that when mistakes occur, they are more likely to be ours than theirs.After consulting my railway time-table, I noted with satisfaction that there was an express train to Westhaven. It went direct from my local station and the journey lasted a mere hour and seventeen minutes. When I boarded the train, I could not help noticing that a great many local people got on as well. At the time, this did not strike me as odd. I reflected that there must be a great many people besides myself who wished to take advantage of this excellent service. Neither was I surprised when the train stopped at Widley, a tiny station a few miles along the line. Even a mighty express train can be held up by signals. But when the train dawdled at station after station, I began to wonder. It suddenly dawned on me that this express was not roaring down the line at ninety miles an hour, but barely chugging along at thirty. One hour and seventeen minutes passed and we had not even covered half the distance. I asked a passenger if this was the Westhaven Express, but he had not even heard of it. I determined to lodge a complaint as soon as we arrived. Two hours later, I was talking angrily to the station-master at Westhaven. When he denied the train's existence, I borrowed his copy of the time-table. There was a note of triumph in my voice when I told him that it was there in black and white. Glancing at it briefly, he told me to look again. A tiny asterisk conducted me to a footnote at the bottom of the page. It said: 'This service has been suspended.'New words and expressionsexpress [ikˈspres] n.快车(运) a./ ad.特快(的)punctual[ˈpʌŋktjuəl]a.严守时刻的，准时的，正点的condition[kənˈdiʃən]n.状况[ pl.]环境vt.适应unshakable[ʌnˈʃækəl]vt.除去…的枷锁faith [feiθ]n.信任，信赖，信心；信仰，信条cancel [ˈkænsəl]vt.取消，废除；抵消，对消；删去，划掉exceptionally [ikˈsepʃənli]ad.异常地；极，很dislocate [ˈdisləkeit]v.使脱臼，把…弄乱blame [bleim]vt.指责；(on)把…归咎于n.责任；指责consult[kənˈsʌlt]vt.请教；查阅，查看 vi.交换意见，商议direct[diˈrekt]a.直接的；坦率的ad.直接地odd[ɔd]a.奇特的；临时的；奇数的；n.[ pl.]机会reflect[riˈflekt]v.反映；反射，映现；深思，反省advantage [ədˈvɑ:ntidʒ]n.优点,有利条件(因素)；好处mighty[ˈmaiti]a.强大的dawdle [ˈdɔ:dl]v.闲荡，虚度chug [tʃʌm]n.好朋友；鱼饵lodge[lɔdʒ]v.(让)暂住，借宿n.乡间小屋，旅舍complaint[kəmˈpleint]n.抱怨，诉苦；投诉，控告；疾病triumph[ˈtraiəmf]n.胜利，成功；喜悦vi.获胜，成功asterisk[ˈæstərisk]n.星号，星标conduct[ˈkɔndəkt, ˈkɔndʌkt]vt.管理；指挥；输送n.行为；管理(方式)Lesson 38 The first calendarFuture historians will be in a unique position when they come to record the history of our own times. They will hardly know which facts to select from the great mass of evidence that steadily accumulates. What is more they will not have to rely solely on the written word. Films, gramophone records, and magnetic tapes will provide them with a bewilder ing amount of information. They will be able, as it were, to see and hear us in action. But the historian attempting to reconstruct the distant past is always faced with a difficult task. He has to deduce what he can from the few scanty clues available. Even seemingly insignificant remains can shed interesting light on the history of early man.Up to now, historians have assumed that calendars came into being with the advent of agriculture, for then man was faced with a real need to understand something about the seasons. Recent scientific evidence seems to indicate that this assumption is incorrect.Historians have long been puzzled by dots, lines and symbols which have been engraved on walls, bones, and the ivory tusk of mammoths. The nomads who made these markings lived by hunting and fishing during the last Ice Age, which began about 35,000 B.C. and ended about 10,000 B.C. By correlating markings made in various parts of the world, historians have been able to read this difficult code. They have found that it is connected with the passage of days and the phases of the moon. It is, in fact, a,primitive type of calendar. It has long been known that the hunting scenes depicted on walls were not simply a form of artistic expression. They had a definite meaning, for they were as near as early man could get to writing. It is possible that there is a definite relation between these paintings and the markings that sometimes accompany them. It seems that man was making a real effort to understand the seasons 20,000 years earlier than has been supposed.New words and expressionscalendar [ˈkælində]n.日历，月历historian[hisˈtɔ:riən]n.历史学家，史学工作者unique[ju:ˈni:k]a.唯一的，独一无二的steadily[ˈstedili]ad.坚定地；不断地solely [ˈsəulli]ad.唯一；单独；完全video[ˈvidiəu]n.录像(机) a.录像的vt.制作…的录像CD-ROM光盘只读内存bewilder [biˈwildə]vt.使迷惑，使难住deduce[diˈdju:s]vt.推论，推断，演绎scanty[ˈskænti]a.不足的clue[klu:]n.线索，提示insignificant [ˌinsigˈnifikənt]a.无意义的；无价值的shed [ʃed]vt.脱落；流出advent[ˈædvent]n.出现，到来agriculture[ˈægrikʌltʃə]n.农业，农学assumption[əˈsʌmpʃən]n.假定，臆断；担任，承担dot[dɔt]n.点，小圆点symbol[ˈsimbəl]n.符号，标志；象征engrave[inˈgreiv]vt.(在…上)雕刻；使铭记，使牢记ivory[ˈaivəri]n.象牙；象牙色，乳白色mammoth [ˈmæməθ]a.庞大的tusk [tʌsk]n.(象)长牙nomad [ˈnəumæd]n.流浪者，游牧部落的人correlate [ˈkɔrileit]vt.使相互关联 vi.(to，with)相关，关联phase[feiz]n.阶段；方面；相位vt.分阶段实行primitive[ˈprimitiv]a.原始的；简单的n.原(始)人，原始事物depict[diˈpikt]vt.描绘，描述Lesson 39 Nothing to worry aboutThe rough road across the plain soon became so bad that we tried to get Bruce to drive back to the village we had come from. Even though the road was littered with boulders and pitted with holes, Bruce was not in the least perturbed. Glancing at his map, he informed us that the next village was a mere twenty miles away. It was not that Bruce always under-estimated difficulties. He simply had no sense of danger at all. No matter what the conditions were, he believed that a car should be driven as fast as it could possibly go.As we bumped over the dusty track, we swerved to avoid large boulders. The wheels scooped up stones which hammered ominously under the car. We felt sure that sooner or later a stone would rip a hole in our petrol tank or damage the engine. Because of this, we kept looking back, wondering if we were leaving a trail of oil and petrol behind us.What a relief it was when the boulders suddenly disappeared, giving way to a stretch of plain where the only obstacles were clumps of bushes. But there was worse to come. Just ahead of us there was a huge fissure. In response to renewed pleadings, Bruce stopped. Though we all got out to examine the fissure, he remained in the car. We informed him that the fissure extended for fifty yards and was two feet wide and four feet deep. Even this had no effect. Bruce engaged low gear and drove at a terrifying speed, keeping the front wheels astride the crack as he followed its zig-zag course. Before we had time to worry about what might happen, we were back on the plain again. Bruce consulted the map once more and tol d us that the village was now only fifteen miles away. Our next obstacle was a shallow pool of water about half a mile across. Bruce charged at it, but in the middle, the car came to a grinding halt. A yellow light on the dashboard flashed angrily and Bruce cheerfully announced that there was no oil in the engine!New words and expressionsrough [rʌf]a.粗糙的；艰难的boulder [ˈbəuldə]n.巨石pit[pit]n.地洞，坑；煤矿(井) vt.使有坑(凹陷)perturb[pəˈtə:b]vt.烦扰underestimate[ˌʌndərˈestimeit]vt./ n.估计不足，低估swerve [swə:v]vi.突然转向一边n.改变方向scoop [sku:p]n.勺子；独家新闻 vt.用勺舀；抢先报道hammer[ˈhæmə]n.锤，榔头v.锤击，敲打ominously ['ɔminəsli] ad. 恶兆地;不吉利地rip [rip]v.扯破，撕坏n.裂口，裂缝petrol [ˈpetrəl]n.汽油stretch [stretʃ]vi.伸展vt.拉长n.一段时间(路程)；伸展obstacle[ˈɔbstəkl]n.障碍(物)，妨碍clump[klʌmp]n.(树，草)丛；一块fissure[ˈfiʃə]n.裂缝，裂隙renew[riˈnju:]v.继续；(使)更新，恢复；延长有效期pleading ['pli:diŋ] n. 请求;恳求gear [giə]n.齿轮，传动装置；设备，衣服vt.使适应astride [əst'raid] prep. 跨(马等)crack[kræk]v.破裂；发出爆裂声；打n.裂缝；噼啪声zigzag[ˈzigzæg]n.锯齿形 a.工字形(的)shallow[ˈʃæləu]a.浅(薄)的n.[ pl.]浅滩，浅水处grind[graind]vt.磨(碎)；折磨vi.摩得吱吱作响n.苦差事halt [hɔ:lt]n.停住，停止，暂停v.(使)停住，(使)停止dashboard['dæʃbɔ:d] n. 汽车的仪器板Lesson 40 Who’s whoIt has never been explained why university students seem to enjoy practical jokes more than anyone else. Students specialize in a particular type of practical joke: the hoax. Inviting the fire-brigade to put out a non-existent fire is a crude form of deception which no self-respecting student would ever indulge in, Students often create amusing situations which are funny to everyone except the victims.When a student recently saw two work-men using a pneumatic drill outside his university, he immediately telephoned the police and informed them that two students dressed up as workmen were tearing up the road with a pneumatic drill. As soon as he had hung up, he went over to the workmen and told them that if a policeman ordered them to go away, they were not to take him seriously. He added that a student had dressed up as a policeman and was playing all sorts of silly jokes on people. Both the police and the workmen were grateful to the student for this piece of advance information.The student hid in an archway nearby where he could watch and hear every- thing that went on. Sure enough, a policeman arrived on the scene and politely asked the workmen to go away. When he received a very rude reply from one of the workmen, he threatened to remove them by force. The workmen told him to do as he pleased and the policeman telephoned for help. Shortly afterwards, four more policemen arrived and remonstrated with the workmen. As the men refused to stop working, the police attempted to seize the pneumatic drill. The workmen struggled fiercely and one of them lost his temper. He threatened to call the police. At this, the police pointed out ironically that this would hardly be necessary as the men were already under arrest. Pretending to speak seriously, one of the workmen asked if he might make a telephone call before being taken to the station. Permission was granted and a policeman accompanied him to a call-box. Only when he saw that the man was actually telephoning the police did he realize that they had all been the victims of a hoax.New words and expressionshoax[həuks]n.恶作剧deception[diˈsepʃən]n.欺骗self-respecting ['selfri'spektiŋ] a. 有自尊心的;自重的indulge[inˈdʌldʒ]vt.沉溺(于)；纵容，迁就，肆意从事pneumatic[nju:'mætik] a. 气动的drill[dril]n.钻头；操练v.钻(孔)，打(眼)；操练silly[ˈsili]a.傻的，糊涂的advance [ədˈvɑ:ns]vi.前进vt.预先发放,提前n.进展a.预先的archway英音：['ɑ:tʃwei] n. 拱门remonstrate[riˈmɔnstreit, ˈremənstreit]v.抗议，规劝ironically [aiˈrɔnikəli]ad.具有讽刺意味地；嘲讽地，挖苦地permission [pəˈmiʃən]n.允许，许可，准许grant[grɑ:nt]n.拨款，授予物 vt.授予，同意，准予Lesson 41 Illusions of pastoral peaceThe quiet life of the country has never appealed to me. City born and city bred, I have always regarded the country as something you look at through a train window, or something you occasionally visit during the week-end. Most of my friends live in the city, yet they always go into raptures at the mere mention of the country. Though they extol the virtues of the peaceful life, only one of them has ever gone to live in the country and he was back in town within six months. Even he still lives under the illusion that country life is somehow superior to town life. He is forever talking about the friendly people, the clean atmosphere, the closeness to nature and the gentle pace of living. Nothing can be compared, he maintains, with the first cock crow, the twittering of birds at dawn, the sight of the rising sun glinting on the trees and pastures. This idyllic pastoral scene is only part of the picture. My friend fails to mention the long and friendless winter evenings which are interrupted only by an occasional visit to the local cinema-virtually the only form of entertainment. He says nothing about the poor selection of goods in the shops, or about those unfortunate people who have to travel from the country to the city every day to get to work. Why people are prepared to tolerate a four hour journey each day for the dubious privilege of living in the country is beyond my ken. They could be saved so much misery and expense if they chose to live in the city where they rightly belong.If you can do without the few pastoral pleasures of the country, you will find the city can provide you with the best that life can offer. You never have to travel miles to see your friends. They invariably live nearby and are always available for an informal chat or an evening's entertainment. Some of my acquaintances in the country come up to town once or twice a year to visit the theatre as a special treat. For them this is a major operation which involves considerable planning. As the play draws to its close, they wonder whether they will ever catch that last train home. The city dweller never experiences anxieties of this sort. The latest exhibitions, films, or plays are only a short bus ride away. Shopping, too, is always a pleasure. There is so much variety that you never have to make do with second best. Country people run wild when they go shopping in the city and stagger home loaded with as many of the necessities of life as they can carry. Nor is the city without its moments of beauty. There is something comforting about the warm glow shed by advertisements on cold wet winter nights. Few things could be more impressive than the peace that descends on deserted city streets at week-ends when the thousands that travel to work every day are tucked away in their homes in the country. It has always been a mystery to me why city dwellers, who appreciate all these things, obstinately pretend that they would prefer to live in the country.New words and expressionsillusion[iˈlu:ʒən]n.幻想，错误的观念；错觉，幻觉，假象pastoral [ˈpɑ:stərəl]a.田园生活的，宁静的breed[bri:d]n.种，品种vi.繁殖vt.饲养；养育；酿成superior[su:ˈpiəriə, sju:-]a.上级的，较高的；高傲的cockcrow ['kɔk,krəu] n. 公鸡的啼叫[U][S1] twitter[ˈtwitə]vi.(鸟)吱吱叫 n.鸟鸣glint[glint]v.& n.闪耀，闪光pasture [ˈpɑ:stʃə]n.牧草地，牧场 vt.放牧idyllic [aiˈdilik]a.田园诗的virtually [ˈvə:tʃuəli]ad.实际上，事实上dubious[ˈdju:biəs]a.怀疑的，无把握的；有问题的，靠不住的privilege [ˈprivilidʒ]n.特权，优惠misery[ˈmizəri]n.痛苦，苦恼，苦难；悲惨的境遇，贫苦acquaintance[əˈkweintəns]n.相识的人,熟人；认识,了解。

They disregard social conventions withoutbeing conscious that they are doing anything extraordinary.

He was a shrewd and wealthy businessman, but most people in the town hardly knew anything about this side of his life. He was known to us all as Dickie and his eccentricity had become legendary long before he died.Dickie disliked snobs intensely. Though he owned a large car, he hardly ever used it, preferring always to go on foot. Even when it was raining heavily, he refused to carry an umbrella. One day, he walked into an expensive shop after having been caught in a particularly heavy shower. He wanted to buy a 300 watch for his wife, but he was in such a bedraggled condition that an assistant refused to serve him. Dickie left the shop without a word and returned carrying a large cloth bag. As it was extremely heavy, he dumped it on the counter. The assistant asked him to leave, but Dickie paid no attention to him and requested to see the manager. Recognizing who the customer was, the manager was most apologetic and reprimanded the assistant severely. When Dickie was given the watch, he presented the assistant with the cloth bag.
