St. Valentine’s StoryNew Words in the Storypriest牧师Claudius 克劳迪亚斯ceremony 典礼,仪式jailer看守监狱的人,狱卒Rome 罗马volunteer 自愿behead斩首,砍…的头St. Valentine’s StoryValentine was a priest living in Rome during the third century. At that time, Rome was ruled by an emperor named Claudius. He wanted to have a big army and expected men to volunteer to join. However many men just did not want to fight in wars. They did not want to leave their wives and families. This made Claudius very angry. He thought that if men were not married, they would not mind joining the army. So Claudius banned marriage even engagement from his empire. But Valentine would keep on performing marriage ceremonies secretly. He was caught by the soldiers at a wedding, and was thrown into prison and beheaded.Valentine fell in love with the daughter of his jailer when he was in prison. Before he was taken to his death on February 14, 269 A.D., he signed a farewell message to her, “Love from your Valentine.” That note started the custom of exchanging love messages on Valentine’s Da y.Questions and Answers1. When did Valentine live?(He was living during the third century.)2. What was Valentine?(He was a priest.)3. What did he do to help young lovers?(He kept performing marriage ceremonies secretly for the young lovers in s pite of Claudius’s ban.)4. When was he killed?(He was killed on February 14, 269 A.D..)5. Is there any day like Saint Valentine’s Day in China?(The seventh day of the seventh lunar month is the Chinese Lovers’ Day. The most popular story mentioned in connection with this festiv al is that of “the Cowherd and the Weaving Girl”.)II. Valentine Traditions- In the Middle Ages, young men and women drew names from a bowl to see who their valentines would be. They would wear these names on their sleeves for one week. “Wear your heart o n your sleeve” now means that it is easy for other people to know how you are feeling.- If you cut an apple in half and count how many seeds are inside, you will also know how many children you will have.- In Wales, wooden love spoons were carved and given as gifts on February 14th. Hearts, keys and keyholes were favorite decorations on the spoons. The decoration meant “You unlock my heart!”III. Birds and LoveEuropeans also believe that Feb. 14th is the day when birds begin to choose their mates. Chaucer, Shakespeare, and numerous other poets mention the tradition in their works. In accordance with the tradition, it is believed that a young girl will be able to tell what type of man she will marry based upon the first bird tha t she sees on Valentine’s Da y.- If a young girl sees a blackbird, she will marry a clergyman or priest.- If a young girl sees a robin redbreast, she will marry a sailor or nautical man.- If a young girl sees a goldfinch (or any yellow bird), she will marry a rich man.- If a young girl sees a sparrow, she will marry a farmer or country gentleman.- If a young girl sees a bluebird, she will marry a happy man.- If a young girl sees a crossbill, she will marry an argumentative man.- If a young girl sees a dove, she will marry a good man.- If a young girl sees a woodpecker, she will have no husband.Before Reading >> Public Libraries in the U.S.Public libraries in the U.S. are free to the public.

综合教程1 Unit 2 Friendship 小楠笔记
All the cabbie Had Was a Letter1He must have been completely lost in something he was reading because I had to tap on the windshield to get his attention.2“Is your cab available?” I asked when he finally looked up at me. He nodded, then said apologetically as I settled into the back seat, “I’m sorry, but I was reading a letter.” He sounded as if he had a cold or something.3“I’m in no hurry,” I told him. “Go ahead and finish your letter.”4He shook his head. “I’ve read it several times already. I guess I almost know it by heart.”5“Letters from home always mean a lot,” I said. “At least they do with me because I’m on the road so much.”Then, estimating that he was 60 or 70 years old, I guessed:”From a child or maybe a grandchild?”6“This isn’t a family,” he replied. “Although,” he went on, “come to think of it, it might just as well have been family. Old Ed was my oldest friend. In fact, we used to call each other ‘Old Friend’—when we’d meet, that is. I’m not much of a hand at writing.”7“I don’t think any of us keep up our correspondence too well,” I said. “I know I don’t. But I take it he’s someone you’ve known quite a while?”8“All my life, practically. We were kids together, so we go way back.”9“Went to school together?”10“All the way through high school. We were in the same class, in fact, through both grade and high school.”11“There are not too many people who’ve had such a long friendship,” I said.12“Actually,” the driver went on, “I hadn’t seen him more than once or twice a year over the past 25 or 30 years because I moved away from the old neighborhood and you kind of lose touch even though you never forget. He was a great guy.”13“You said ‘was’. Dose that mean--?”14He nodded. “Died a couple of weeks ago.”15“I’m sorry,” I said. “It’s no fun to lose any friend—and losing a real old one is even tougher.”16He didn’t reply to that, and we rode on in silence for a few minutes. But I realized that Old Ed was still on his mind when he spoke again, almost to himself than to me: “I should have kept in touch.”17“Well,” I agreed, “We should all keep in touch with old friends more than we do. But things come up and we just don’t seem to find the time.”18He shrugged. “We used to find the time,” he said. “That’s even mentioned in the letter.” He handed it over to me. “Take a look.”19“Thanks,” I said, “but I don’t want to read your mail. That’s pretty personal.”20The driver shrugged. “Old Ed’s dead. There’s nothing personal now. Go ahead,” he urged me. 21The letter was written in pencil. It began with the greeting “Old Friend,”and the first sentence remained me of myself. I’ve been meaning to write for some time, but I’ve always postponed it. It then went on to say that he often thought about the good times they had had together when they both live in the same neighborhood. It had references to things that probably meant to something to the driver, such as the time Tim Shea broke the window, the Halloween that we tied Old Mr. Parker’s gate, and when Mrs. Culver used to keep us after school.22“You must have spent a lot of time together,” I said to him.23“Like it says there,” he answered, “about all we have to spend in those days was time.” He shook his head: “Time.”24I thought the next paragraph of the letter was a little sad: I began the letter with “Old Friend”because that we’ve become over the years—old friends. And there aren’t many of us left.25“You know,”I said to him, “when it says here that there aren’t many of us left, that’s absolutely right. Every time I go to a class reunion, for example, there are fewer and fewer still around.”26“Time goes by,” the driver said.27“Did you two work at the same place?” I asked him.28“No, but we hung out on the same corner when we were single. And then, when we were married, we used to go to each other’s house every now and then. But for the last 20 or 30 years it’s been mostly just Christmas cards. Of course there’d be always be a note we’d each add to the cards—usually some news about our families, you know, what the kid was doing, who moved where, a new grandchild, things like that—but never a real letter or anything like that.”29“This is a good part here,” I said. “Where it says your friendship over the years has meant an awful lot to me, more than I can say because I’m not good at saying things like that.”I found myself nodding in agreement. “That must have made you feel good, didn’t it?”30The driver said something that I couldn’t understand because he seemed to be all choked up, so I continued: “I known I’d like to receive a letter like that from my oldest friend.”31We were getting close to our destination so I skipped to the last paragraph. So I thought you’d like to know that I was thinking of you. And it was signed, Your Old Friend, Tom.32I handed back the letter as we stopped at my hotel. “Enjoyed talking with you,” I said as I took my suitcase out of the cab. Tom? The letter was signed Tom?33“I thought your friend’s name was Ed,” I said. “Why did he sign it Tom?”34“The letter was not from Ed to me,”he explained. “I’m Tom. It’s a letter I wrote to him before I knew he’d died. So I never mailed it.”35He looked sort of sorrowful, or as if he were trying to see something in the distance. “I guessI should have writer it sooner.”36 When I got to my hotel room I didn’t unpack right away. First I had write a letter—and mail it.。

Have you ever heard the song before?3. What does Lennon think of growing up? Is it easy or full of adventures?4. Can you guess what the texts in this unit are going to be about?The following words in the recording may be new to you:monster n. 怪物 prayer n. 祈祷Part IIText AWhen we are writing we are often told to keep our readers in mind, to shape what we say to fit their tastes and interests. But there is one reader in particular who should not be forgotten. Can you guess who? Russell Baker surprised himself and everyone else when he discovered the answer. WRITING FOR MYSELFRussell BakerThe idea of becoming a writer had come to me off and on since my childhood in Belleville, but it wasn't until my third year in high school that the possibility took hold. Until then I'd been bored by everything associated with English courses. I found English grammar dull and difficult.I hated the assignments to turn out long, lifeless paragraphs that were agony for teachers to read and for me to write.When our class was assigned to Mr. Fleagle for third-year English I anticipated another cheerless year in that most tedious of subjects. Mr. Fleagle had a reputation among students for dullness and inability to inspire. He was said to be very formal, rigid and hopelessly out of date. To me he looked to be sixty or seventy and excessively prim. He wore primly severe eyeglasses, his wavy hair was primly cut and primly combed. He wore prim suits with neckties set primly against the collar buttons of his white shirts. He had a primly pointed jaw, a primly straight nose, and a prim manner of speaking that was so correct, so gentlemanly, that he seemed a comic antique.I prepared for an unfruitful year with Mr. Fleagle and for a long time was not disappointed. Late in the year we tackled the informal essay. Mr. Fleagle distributed a homework sheet offering us a choice of topics. None was quite so simple-minded as "What I Did on My Summer Vacation," but most seemed to be almost as dull. I took the list home and did nothing until the night before the essay was due. Lying on the sofa, I finally faced up to the unwelcome task, took the list out of my notebook, and scanned it. The topic on which my eye stopped was "The Art of Eating Spaghetti."This title produced an extraordinary sequence of mental images. Vivid memories came flooding back of a night in Belleville when all of us were seated around the supper table — Uncle Allen, my mother, Uncle Charlie, Doris, Uncle Hal — and Aunt Pat served spaghetti for supper. Spaghetti was still a little known foreign dish in those days. Neither Doris nor I had ever eaten spaghetti,and none of the adults had enough experience to be good at it. All the good humor of Uncle Allen's house reawoke in my mind as I recalled the laughing arguments we had that night about the socially respectable method for moving spaghetti from plate to mouth.Suddenly I wanted to write about that, about the warmth and good feeling of it, but I wanted to put it down simply for my own joy, not for Mr. Fleagle. It was a moment I wanted to recapture and hold for myself. I wanted to relive the pleasure of that evening. To write it as I wanted, however, would violate all the rules of formal composition I'd learned in school, and Mr. Fleagle would surely give it a failing grade. Never mind. I would write something else for Mr. Fleagle after I had written this thing for myself.When I finished it the night was half gone and there was no time left to compose a proper, respectable essay for Mr. Fleagle. There was no choice next morning but to turn in my tale of the Belleville supper. Two days passed before Mr. Fleagle returned the graded papers, and he returned everyone's but mine. I was preparing myself for a command to report to Mr. Fleagle immediately after school for discipline when I saw him lift my paper from his desk and knock for the class's attention."Now, boys," he said. "I want to read you an essay. This is titled, 'The Art of Eating Spaghetti.'" And he started to read. My words! He was reading my words out loud to the entire class. What's more, the entire class was listening. Listening attentively. Then somebody laughed, then the entire class was laughing, and not in contempt and ridicule, but with open-hearted enjoyment. Even Mr. Fleagle stopped two or three times to hold back a small prim smile.I did my best to avoid showing pleasure, but what I was feeling was pure delight at this demonstration that my words had the power to make people laugh. In the eleventh grade, at the eleventh hour as it were, I had discovered a calling. It was the happiest moment of my entire school career. When Mr. Fleagle finished he put the final seal on my happiness by saying, "Now that, boys, is an essay, don't you see. It's — don't you see — it's of the very essence of the essay, don't you see.

In this article he explains why.PUBLIC ATTITUDES TOWARD SCIENCEWhether we like it or not, the world we live in has changed a great deal in the last hundred years, and it is likely to change even more in the next hundred. Some people would like to stop these changes and go back to what they see as a purer and simpler age. But as history shows, the past was not that wonderful. It was not so bad for a privileged minority, though even they had to do without modern medicine, and childbirth was highly risky for women. But for the vast majority of the population, life was nasty, brutish, and short.Anyway, even if one wanted to, one couldn't put the clock back to an earlier age. Knowledge andtechniques can't just be forgotten. Nor can one prevent further advances in the future. Even if all government money for research were cut off (and the present government is doing its best), the force of competition would still bring about advances in technology. Moreover, one cannot stop inquiring minds from thinking about basic science, whether or not they are paid for it. The only way to prevent further developments would be a global state that suppressed anything new, and human initiative and inventiveness are such that even this wouldn't succeed. All it would do is slow down the rate of change.If we accept that we cannot prevent science and technology from changing our world, we can at least try to ensure that the changes they make are in the right directions. In a democratic society, this means that the public needs to have a basic understanding of science, so that it can make informed decisions and not leave them in the hands of experts. At the moment, the public is in two minds about science. It has come to expect the steady increase in the standard of living that new developments in science and technology have brought to continue, but it also distrusts science because it doesn't understand it. This distrust is evident in the cartoon figure of the mad scientist working in his laboratory to produce a Frankenstein. It is also an important element behind support for the Green parties. But the public also has a great interest in science, particularly astronomy, as is shown by the large audiences for television series such as The Skyat Night and for science fiction.What can be done to harness this interest and give the public the scientific background it needsto make informed decisions on subjects like acid rain, the greenhouse effect, nuclear weapons, and genetic engineering? Clearly, the basis must lie in what is taught in schools. But in schools science is often presented in a dry and uninteresting manner. Children learn it by rote to pass examinations, and they don't see its relevance to the world around them. Moreover, science is often taught in terms of equations. Although equations are a brief and accurate way of describing mathematical ideas, they frighten most people. When I wrote a popular book recently, I was advised that each equation I included would halve the sales. I included one equation, Einstein's famous equation, E=mc2. Maybe I would have sold twice as many copies without it.Scientists and engineers tend to express their ideas in the form of equations because they needto know the precise values of quantities. But for the rest of us, a qualitative grasp of scientific concepts is sufficient, and this can be conveyed by words and diagrams, without the use of equations. The science people learn in school can provide the basic framework. But the rate of scientific progress is now so rapid that there are always new developments that have occurred since one wasat school or university. I never learned about molecular biology or transistors at school, but genetic engineering and computers are two of the developments most likely to change the way we live in the future. Popular books and magazine articles about science can help to put across new developments, but even the most successful popular book is read by only a small proportion of the population. Only television can reach a truly mass audience. There are some very good science programmes on TV, but others present scientific wonders simply as magic, without explaining them or showing how they fit into the framework of scientific ideas. Producers of television science programmes should realize that they have a responsibility to educate the public, not just entertain it.The world today is filled with dangers, hence the sick joke that the reason we have not been contacted by an alien civilization is that civilizations tend to destroy themselves when theyreach our stage. But I have sufficient faith in the good sense of the public to believe that we might prove this wrong.(812 words)New Words and Expressionsattitude n. 看法;态度likely a. probable 可能的 ad. probably 可能privileged a. having a special advantage 有特权的privilege n. 特权minority n. 少数do without 没有…而设法对付过去highly ad. very 很,非常risky a. full of danger; full of the possibility of failure, loss, etc. 危险的;有风险的nasty a. very unpleasant 令人难受的brutish a. 野兽般的,野蛮的anyway ad.

CrawfordHe came from a rocky farm in Italy, somewhere south of Rome. How or when he got to America, I don't know. But one evening I found him standing in the driveway, behind my garage. He was about five-foot-seven or eight, and thin."I mow your lawn," he said. It was hard to comprehend his broken English.I asked him his name. "Tony Trivisonno," he replied. "I mow your lawn." I told Tony that I couldn't afford a gardener."I mow your lawn," he said again, then walked away. I went into my house unhappy. Yes, these Depression days were difficult, but how could I to turn away a person who had come to me for help? When I got home from work the next evening, the lawn had been mowed, the garden weeded, and the walks swept. I asked my wife what had happened."A man got the lawn mower out of the garage and worked on the yard," she answered. "I assumed you had hired him."I told her of my experience the night before. We thought it strange that he had not asked for。

St. Valentine’s StoryNew Words in the Storypriest牧师Claudius 克劳迪亚斯ceremony 典礼,仪式jailer看守监狱的⼈,狱卒Rome 罗马volunteer ⾃愿behead斩⾸,砍…的头St. Valentine’s StoryValentine was a priest living in Rome during the third century. At that time, Rome was ruled by an emperor named Claudius. He wanted to have a big army and expected men to volunteer to join. However many men just did not want to fight in wars. They did not want to leave their wives and families. This made Claudius very angry. He thought that if men were not married, they would not mind joining the army. So Claudius banned marriage even engagement from his empire. But Valentine would keep on performing marriage ceremonies secretly. He was caught by the soldiers at a wedding, and was thrown into prison and beheaded.Valentine fell in love with the daughter of his jailer when he was in prison. Before he was taken to his death on February 14, 269 A.D., he signed a farewell message to her, “Love from your Valentine.” That note started the custom of exchanging love messages on Valentine’s Da y.Questions and Answers1. When did Valentine live?(He was living during the third century.)2. What was Valentine?(He was a priest.)3. What did he do to help young lovers?(He kept performing marriage ceremonies secretly for the young lovers in s pite of Claudius’s ban.)4. When was he killed?(He was killed on February 14, 269 A.D..)5. Is there any day like Saint Valentine’s Day in China?(The seventh day of the seventh lunar month is the Chinese Lovers’ Day. The most popular story mentioned in connection with this festiv al is that of “the Cowherd and the Weaving Girl”.)II. Valentine Traditions- In the Middle Ages, young men and women drew names from a bowl to see who their valentines would be. They would wear these names on their sleeves for one week. “Wear your heart o n your sleeve” now means that it is easy for other people to know how you are feeling.- If you cut an apple in half and count how many seeds are inside, you will also know how many children you will have.- In Wales, wooden love spoons were carved and given as gifts on February 14th. Hearts, keys and keyholes were favorite decorations on the spoons. The decoration meant “You unlock my heart!”III. Birds and LoveEuropeans also believe that Feb. 14th is the day when birds begin to choose their mates. Chaucer, Shakespeare, and numerous other poets mention the tradition in their works. In accordance with the tradition, it is believed that a young girl will be able to tell what type of man she will marry based upon the first bird tha t she sees on Valentine’s Da y.- If a young girl sees a blackbird, she will marry a clergyman or priest.- If a young girl sees a robin redbreast, she will marry a sailor or nautical man.- If a young girl sees a goldfinch (or any yellow bird), she will marry a rich man.- If a young girl sees a sparrow, she will marry a farmer or country gentleman.- If a young girl sees a bluebird, she will marry a happy man.- If a young girl sees a crossbill, she will marry an argumentative man.- If a young girl sees a dove, she will marry a good man.- If a young girl sees a woodpecker, she will have no husband.Before Reading >> Public Libraries in the U.S.Public libraries in the U.S. are free to the public.

Before Reading >> English Song –That’s What Friends Are ForI. Introductory RemarksJust what are friends for? To have fun with, of course, to share in the good times. Yet most people would say that a real friend is more than just a fair-weather friend. A fair-weather friend?A fair-weather friend is someone who's happy to stay with you when things are going well but leaves as soon as trouble arrives, while a good friend, a true friend, is one who'll stand by you when you find yourself in difficulties.

Questions and Answers1. What is a fair-weather friend?(One who is happy to stay with you when things are going well but leaves as soon as trouble arrives.)2. Do you know anything about the singers?(Dionne Warwick, Elton John, Stevie Wonder and Gladys Knight.Dionne WarwickDionne Warwick was a pop and R&B (Rhythm and Blues, 节奏蓝调音乐) music star of the 1960s and 1970s. In the 1980s she worked jointly with Elton John, Gladys Knight and Stevie Wonder on the Grammy-winning single That’s What Friends Are For, a fundraiser for AIDS victims. Elton JohnElton John (1947~), an English rock composer, singer and pianist, is one of rock music’s durable (持久的) performers. He played the piano by ear from age four, and studied at the Royal Academy of Music at 11. The top pop star of the 1970s, his performance was featured by wild eyeglasses and outlandish (奇异的) costumes on the stage. Despite health problems in 1993 he continues to perform live across the world, mostly on the softer side these days.His latest success includes the best-selling sound track for The Lion King (1994), a Disney film. And the recording of Candle in the Wind 97, sung at the funeral of Princess Diana, became the largest-selling single in history within a month of its release (发行). He was knighted (授予爵士称号) in 1998.)3. According to the song, what are friends for?(For both good times and bad times.)4. How can friend and friendship be defined?(Friend Definition A:A friend is one to whom one may pour out all the contents of one’s heart, chaff (谷壳)and grain together, knowing that gentle hands will take and sift (筛,过滤) them, keep what is worth keeping, and with a breath of kindness, blow the rest away.— George Eliot (1819~1880), English novelist Friend Definition B:A friend is a person with whom I may be sincere. Before him, I may think aloud.— Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803~1882),American poet and philosopher Friend Definition C:A true friend is one who overlooks your failures and tolerates your successes.— Doug Larson (1902~1981),English middle-distance runner Friendship Definition A:True friendship is like sound health; the value of it is seldom known until it is lost.— Charles Caleb Colton (1780~1832),English author and clergyman Friendship Definition B:Friendship is a ship big enough to carry two in fair weather, but only one in foul (天气恶劣的).— Ambrose Bierce (1842~1914),American author and journalist,from The Devil’s Dictionary Friendship Definition C:Friendship is a treasure that always helps us overcome any kind of difficulty. Friendship is a comfort which always understands worries and emotions. Friendship is a blessing because it teaches the way to live.— Unknown) 5. Can you give some examples of great friendship?(Marx and EngelsMarx valued Engels’ friendship so highly that he once said he loved and admired his friend very much. Engels had been aiding Marx who suffered greatly from bitter poverty. Were it not for the help Marx obtained from Engels, Marx would hardly have been able to overcome poverty and he surely would not have left behind him a monument.Qu Qiubai and Lu XunQu Qiubai was one of CPC’s pri ncipal leaders in the early period. Under the persecution (迫害)of Wang Ming, one of the CPC’s early leaders, Qu was dismissed from his important posts in the CPC Central Committee. But he soon took an active part in the struggles launched by theleft-wing cultural front, together with Lu Xun, in Shanghai. During the two years of joint work , they became true friends.)Before Reading >> Background InformationHalloweenHalloween is celebrated annually. It is on the night of 31 October, when people once believed that ghosts could be seen. Now, in Britain and America, it is a time when children have parties, dress up as witches, make lanterns out of pumpkins from which the inside has been remo ved, and play “trick or treat”.“Trick or treat” is a traditional activity at Halloween. Children dress in costumes and visit houses. At each house they say “Trick or treat”. This means that they will play a “trick”, or joke, on the people in the house unless they are given a “treat”, e.g. sweets or money. Most people prefer to give treats rather than having tricks played on them.Before Reading >> Word WebThe stories in this unit are about friendship.

The contrast between our two cultures can also be seen in terms of the fears we both harbor. Chinese teachers are fearful that if skills are not acquired early, they may never be acquired; there is, on the other hand, no comparable hurry to promote creativity. American educators fear that unless creativity has been acquired early, it may never emerge; on the other hand, skills can be picked up later .美国人的立场可以概括起来这么说,我们比中国人更重视创新和自立。

Unit 4 The American Dream Global Reading >> Part Division of the TextGlobal Reading >> Further UnderstandingI. For Part 1i. Table Completionii. Matching(1 —C —II; 2 —A —III; 3 —B —I)iii. ScanningScan the text to find out descriptions of Tony’s physical appearance.Para. 1 He was about five-foot-seven or eight, and thin.Para. 22 He seemed to stand a little straighter. He was heavier. He had a look of confidence. Para. 27 … neatly dressedII. For Part 2 Questions and Answers1. What is the key to Tony’s success?(Tony worked very hard to create his American Dream. Besides, he was determined, self-controlled, optimistic, self-respected, honest and responsible. All these helped him become successful.)2. Compare Tony with the greatest industrialists.(Both Tony and the greatest industrialists are successful in pursuing their American Dreams. They reached their success by working hard, and by the same values and principles. The only difference was that they had different financial achievements.)Detailed ReadingI. Difficult Sentences1.“I mow your lawn,” he said. (Para. 2)How many times is the sentence —“I mow your lawn.” —repeated in the text? Why is it repeated?(The sentence is repeated four times. That’s because it shows Tony’s determination in finding a job, and his optimistic view that people would help a man who needed a job.)2.Well, what do you do with such determination and hope? (Para. 12)Paraphrase the sentence.(It is hard to refuse a person who is determined and hopeful to get a job.)3.My wife and I were delighted with what we felt was a satisfying end of the story. (Para. 16)1) Paraphrase the sentence.(My wife and I were happy with what Tony had achieved, and thought that the whole thing had thus been settled.)2) Was Tony satisfied with this end?(Tony was not satisfied. He kept on working hard until he fulfilled his better dreams.)4.From then on, it was interesting to see that any discarded odds and ends around our place — a broken screen, a bit of hardware, boards from packing — Tony would gather and take home. (Para. 21)1) Why did Tony take home the discarded odds and ends?(Tony bought a house, which was a complete wreck. To fix and decorate it, and, above all, to save money, he took home the discarded odds and ends.)2) Translate the sentence into Chinese.(从那以后,只要我家附近有什么被人扔弃的零星杂物,坏了的屏风啦,五金器具啦,包装纸板啦,托尼都要收起来拿回家,看他这个样子真是有意思。
