新概念英语第二册(中英文对照25)
英国人讲的是英语吗？我终于到了伦敦。
火车站很大，又黑又暗。
我不知道去饭店的路该怎么走，于是向一个搬运工打听。
我的英语讲得不但非常认真，而且咬字也非常清楚。
然而搬运工却不明白我的话。
我把问话重复了很多遍。
他终于听懂了。
他回答了，但他讲得既不慢也不清楚。
我是个外国人， 我说。
于是他说得慢了，可我还是听不懂。
我的老师从来不那样讲英语！我和搬运工相视一笑。
接着，他说了点什么，这回我听懂了。
您会很快学会英语的！ 他说。
我感到奇怪。
在英国，人们各自说着一种不同的语言。
英国人之间相互听得懂，可我却不懂他们的话！他们说的是英语吗？最佳美术评论家我是个学艺术的学生，画了很多画。
有很多人装成很懂现代艺术的样子，总是告诉你一幅画的 意思 是什么。
当然，有很多画是什么 意思 也没有的。
它们就是些好看的图案，我们喜爱它们就像我们喜欢漂亮的窗帘布一样。
我觉得小孩子们往往比任何人都更能欣赏现代绘画，他们观察到的东西更多。
我的妹妹只有 岁，但她总能说出我的画是好还是坏。
昨天她到我房里来了。
雨夜傍晚时分，孩子们在田野中央搭起了帐篷。
这件事刚刚做完，他们就在篝火上烧起了饭。
他们全都饿了，饭菜散发出阵阵香味。
他们美美地吃了一顿饭后，就围在营火旁讲起了故事，唱起了歌。
但过了一阵子。
天下起雨来，于是他们扑灭了篝火，钻进了帐篷。
睡袋既暖和又舒服，所以，他们都睡得很香。
午夜前后，有两个孩子醒了，大声叫了起来。
原来帐篷里到处都是水！他们全都跳出睡袋，跑到外面。
雨下得很大，他们发现地上已经形成了一条小溪。
那小溪弯弯曲曲穿过田野，然后正好从他们的帐篷底下流过去。
禁止停车贾斯珀 怀特是少有的相信古代神话的人之一。
他刚在城里买下一所新房子，但自从搬进去后，就和汽车及车主们发生了磨擦。
当他夜里回到家时，总是发现有人把车停在他家大门外。
为此，他甚至一次也没能把自己的车开进车库。
贾斯珀曾把几块 禁止停车 的牌子挂在大门外边，但没有任何效果。
现在他把一个丑陋的石雕头像放在了大门上边，这是我见过的最丑陋的头像之一。

火车站很大，又黑又暗。
我不知道去饭店的路该怎么走，于是向一个搬运工打听。
我的英语讲得不但非常认真，而且咬字也非常清楚。
不过搬运工却不明白我的话。
我把问话重复了很多遍。
他终于听懂了。
他回答了，但他讲得既不慢也不清楚。
“我是个外国人，”我说。
于是他说得慢了，可我还是听不懂。
我的老师从来不那样讲英语!我和搬运工相视一笑。
接着，他说了点什么，这回我听懂了。
“您会很快学会英语的!”他说。
我感到奇怪。
在英国，人们各自说着一种不同的语言。

Who is the student's best critic?I am an art student and I paint a lot of pictures. Manypeople pretend that they understand modern art. They alwaystell you what a picture is 'about'. Of course, many picturesare not 'about' anything. They are just pretty patterns. Welike them in the same way that we like pretty curtainmaterial. I think that young children often appreciate modernpictures better than anyone else. They notice more. My sisteris only seven, but she always tells me whether my picturesare good or not. She came into my room yesterday.'What are you doing?' she asked.'I'm hanging this picture on the wall,' I answered. 'It's anew one. Do you like it?'She looked at it critically for a moment. 'It's all right,'she said, 'but isn't it upside down?'I looked at it again. She was right! It was!【课文翻译】我是个学艺术的学生，画了很多画。
有很多人装成很懂现代艺术的样子，总是告诉你一幅画的“意思”是什么。
当然，有很多画是什么“意思”也没有的。
它们就是些好看的图案，我们喜爱它们就像我们喜欢漂亮的窗帘布一样。
我觉得小孩子们往往比任何人都更能欣赏现代绘画，他们观察到的东西更多。
我的妹妹只有7岁，但她总能说出我的画是好还是坏。
昨天她到我房里来了。
她问我：“你在干什么?” 我回答道：“我正往墙上贴画呢，这是一张全新的画，你喜欢它吗?” 她评论性地看了一会，说：“还不错，是不是画被挂反了呢?” 我又看了看，画确实是挂反了，她说对了。
