新概念英语第三册重点句子及解析Lesson11【课文】Customs Officers are quite tolerant these days, but they can still stop you when you are going through the Green Channel and have nothing to declare. Even really honest people are often made to feel guilty. The hardened professional smuggler, on the other hand, is never troubled by such feelings, even if he has five hundred gold watches hidden in his suitcase. When I returned from abroad recently, a particularly officious young Customs Officer clearly regarded me as a smuggler."Have you anything to declare?"he asked, looking me in the eye."No,"I answered confidently."Would you mind unlocking this suitcase please?""Not at all,"I answered.The Officer went through the case with great care. All the things I had packed so carefully were soon in a dreadful mess. I felt sure I would never be able to close the case again. Suddenly, I saw the Officer's face light up. He had spotted a tiny bottle at the bottom of my case and he pounced on it with delight."Perfume, eh?'"he asked sarcastically."You should have declared that.""Perfume is not exempt from import duty.""But it isn't perfume,'"I said."It's hair-oil." Then I added with a smile,"It's a strange mixture I make myself.'"As I expected, he did not believe me."Try it!'"I said encouragingly.The Officer unscrewed the cap and put the bottle to his nostrils. He was greeted by an unpleasant smell which convinced him that I was telling the truth. A few minutes later, I was able to hurry away with precious chalk-marks on my baggage.【课文翻译】现在的海关官员往往相当宽容。

Lesson1 A puma at largePumas are large, cat-like animals which are found in America. When reports came into London Zoo that a wild puma had been spotted forty-five miles south of London, they were not taken seriously. 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. Wherever it went, it left behind it a trail of dead deer and small animals like rabbits. Paw prints were seen in a number of places and puma fur was found clinging to bushes. Several people complained of 'cat-like noises' at night and a businessman on a fishing trip saw the puma up a tree. The experts were now fully convinced that the animal was a puma, but where had it come from ? As no pumas had been reported missing from any zoo in the country, this one must have been in the possession of a private collector and somehow managed to escape. The hunt went on for several weeks, but the puma was not caught. It is disturbing to think that a dangerous wild animal is still at large in the quiet countryside.美洲狮是一种体形似猫的大动物,产于美洲。

Lesson19 A very dear cat Kidnappers are rarely interested in Animals, but they recently took considerable interest in Mrs Eleanor Ramsay's cat. Mrs Eleanor Ramsay, a very wealthy old lady, has shared a flat with her cat, Rastus, for a great many years. Rastus leads an orderly life. He usually takes a short walk in the evenings and is always home by seven o'clock. One evening, however, he failed to arrive. Mrs Ramsay got very worried. She looked everywhere for him but could not find him.Three day after Rastus' disappearance, Mrs Ramsay received an anonymous letter. The writer stated that Rastus was in safe hands and would be returned immediately if Mrs Ramsay paid a ransom of &1000. Mrs Ramsay was instructed to place the money in a cardboard box and to leave it outside her door. At first, she decided to go to the police, but fearing that she would never see Rastus again --the letter had made that quite clear--she changed her mind. She drew &1000 from her bank and followed the kidnapper's instructions. The next morning, the box had disappeared but Mrs Ramsay was sure that the kidnapper would keep his word. Sure enough, Rastus arrived punctually at seven o'clock that evening. He looked very well, though he was rather thirsty, for he drank half a bottle of milk. The police were astounded when Mrs Ramsay told them what she haddone. She explained that Rastus was very dear to her. Considering the amount she paid, he was dear in more ways than one!绑架者很少对动物感兴趣。

Wh en report s came in to London Zoo that a wild puma had been spotted forty-five miles south of London, they were not taken seri ously. However, as t he evi dence b egan to acc umulate, e xperts from t he Zoo fe lt 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. Wherever it went, it left behind it a trail of dead dee r and small animals like rabbits. Pa w prints were seen in a number o f places and puma fur was found clinging to bushes. Several people complained of 'cat-like noises' at night and a b usinessman on a fishing trip saw the puma up a tree. The experts were no w fully convinced that the animal was a puma, but where had it come from ? As no pumas had been reported missing from any zoo in the country, this one must have been in the possession of a private collector and so mehow managed to escape. The h unt went on for several weeks, but the puma was not caught. It is disturbing to think that a dangerous wild animal is still at large in the quiet countryside.Lesson 2 Thirteen equals oneOur vicar is always raising money for one cause o r another, but he has never managed to get enough money to have the church clock repaired. The big clock which used to strike the hours day and night was damaged many years ago and has been silent ever since.' One night, however, our vicar woke up with a start: the clock was striking the hours! Looking at his watch, he saw that it was one o'clock, but the bell struck thirteen times before it stopped. Armed with a torch, the vicar went up i nto the clock tower to see what wa s going on. In t he torchlight, he caught sight of a figure whom he immediately recognized as Bill Wilkins, our local grocer. 'Whatever are you doing up here Bill ?' asked the vicar in surprise.' I'm trying to repair th e bell,' answered Bill.' I've been coming up here night after night for weeks now. You see, I was hoping to give you a surprise.''You certainly did give me a surprise!' said the vicar. 'Yo u've probably woken up everyone in the village as well. Still, I'm glad the bell is working again.''That's the trouble, vicar,' answered Bill. 'It's working all r ight, but I'm afraid that at one o'clock it will strike thirteen times and there's nothing I can do about it.''We'll get used to that Bill,' said the vicar. 'Thirteen is not as good as on e but it's better than nothing. Now let's go downstairs and have a cup of tea.'Lesson 3 An unknown goddessSome time ago,an interesting discovery was made by archaeologists on the Aegean(adj.爱琴海的;n.)island of Kea.An American team explored a temple which stands in an ancient city on the prom ontory of Ayia Irin i.The city at one t ime must have been pr osperous,for it enjoyed a high level of ci v ilization.Houses--often three storeys h igh--were built of stone.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 t emple wh ich th e archaeologists explored was used as a place of worship from the fifteenth century B.C. until Roman times. In the most sacred room o f the temple, clay fragments of fifteen statues were found. Each of these re presented a goddess and had, at one time, been painted. The body of one statue wa s found among r emains dating from the f ifteenth century B.C. Its missing head happened to be among remains of the fifth century B.C. This head must have been found in Classical times and carefully preserved. It was very old and precious even then. When t he archaeologists recon structed the f ragments, t hey were a mazed to fi nd that t he goddess turned out to be a very modern-looking woman. She stood three feet high and her hands rested on her hip. She was wearing a ful l-length skirt which swept the ground. Despite her great age, she was very graceful indeed, but, so far, the archaeologists ha ve been unable to discover her identity.Lesson4 The double life of Alfred BloggsThese days, people who do manual work often r eceive far more money than c lerks who wor k in offices. People who work in offices are frequently referred to as' white collar workers' for the simple reason that they usually wear a collar and tie to go to work. Such is human nature, that a great many people are often willing to sacrifice higher pay for the privilege of b ecoming white collar workers. This can give rise to curious situations, as it did in the case of Alfred Bloggs who worked as a dustman for the Ellesmere Corporation.When he got married, Alf was too embarrassed to say anything to his wife about his job. He simply told her that he worked for the Corporation. Every morning, he left home dressed in a smart black suit. He then changed into overalls (n.工作服) and spent the next eight hours as a dustman. Before returning home at night, he took a shower and changed back into his suit. Alf did this for o ver two years and his fellow dustmen kept his s ecret. Alf's wife has never discovered that she married a dustman and she never will, for Alf has just found another job. He will soon be working in an office as a junior clerk. He will be earning only half as much as he used to, but he feels that his rise in status is well worth the loss of money. From now on, he will wear a suit all day and others will call him 'Mr. Bloggs', not 'Alf'.Lesson 5 The factsEditors of newspapers and magazines often g o to extremes to provide their readers with unimportant facts and statistics. Last year a journalist had been i nstructed by a well-known magazine to write an article on t he president's palace in a new Af r ican republic. When the article arrived, the editor read the first sentence a nd then refused to publish it. T he article began: 'Hundreds of steps lead to the high wall which surrounds the president's palace.' The editor at oncesent the journalist a fax instructing him to find out the exact number of steps and the height of the wall.The journalist immediately set out to obtain these important facts, but he took a long time to send them. Meanwhile, the editor was getting impatient, for the magazine would soon go to press. He sent the journalist two urgent telegrams, but received no reply. He sent yet another telegram informing t he jou rnalist t hat if h e di d not repl y soon he would be fired. Whe n the journalist again failed to reply, the editor reluctantly published the article as it had originally been written. A week later, the editor at last received a telegram from the journalist. Not only had the poor man been arrested, but he had been s ent to prison as well. However, he had at last been allowed to send a cable in which he informed the editor that he had been arrested while counting the 1084 steps leading to the 15-foot wall which surrounded the president's palace.Lesson 6 Smash-and-grabThe expensive shops in a famous ar cade near Piccadilly were just opening. At this time of the morning, the arcade was almost empty. Mr Taylor, the owner of a jewellery shop was admiring a new window display. Two of his assistants had been worki n g busily since 8 o'c lock and had only just finished. Diamond necklaces and rings had been be autifully arranged on a background of black velvet. After gazing at the display for several minutes, Mr Taylor went back into his shop.The silence w as suddenly brok en when a large car, w ith it s headlights on and it s h orn blaring, roared down the arcade. It came to a stop outside the jeweler's. One man stayed at t he wheel whi le two others wi th bl ack stocki ngs over their faces jumped out and smashed the window of the shop with iron bars. While this was going on, Mr Taylor was upstairs. He and his staff began throwing furniture out of the window. Chairs and tables went flying into the arcade. One of the thieves wa s struc k by a heavy s tatue, b ut he was too busy helping hi mself to diamonds to notice any pain. The raid w as all ov er in three minutes, for the men scrambled back into the car and it mov ed off at a f antastic speed. Just as it was leaving, Mr Taylor rushed out and ran after it throwing ashtrays and vases, but it was impossible to stop the thieves. T hey had got away with thousands of pounds worth of diamonds.Lesson 7 Mutilated ladiesChildren often have far more sense than their elders. This simple truth was demonstrated rather dramatically d uring a civil defence exer cise in a small town in Canad a. Most of the inhabitants were asked to take part in the exercise during which they had to pretend that their city had be en bombed. Air-raid warnings were sounded and t housands o f peo ple went i nto special air-raid shelters. Doctors and nurses remained above ground while Police patrolled the streets in case anyone tried to leave the shelters too soon.The police did not have much to do because the citizens took the exercise seriously. They stayed underground for twenty minutes and waited for the siren to sound again. On leaving the air-raid shelters, they saw tha t d octors and nurses wer e bus y. A great many people ha d volunteered to act as ca sualties. Theatrical make-up and artificial blood had been used to make the injuries look realistic. A lot of People were lying 'dead' in the streets. The living helped to carry the dead and wounded to special stations. A Child of six was brought in by two adults. The child was supposed to b e dead. With theatrical make-up on his face, he looked as if he had died of shock. Some people were so moved by the sight that they began to cry. However, the child suddenly sat up and a doctor asked him to comment on his death. The child looked around for a moment and said, 'I think they're all crazy!'Lesson8 A famous monasteryThe Great St Bernard Pass connects Switzerland to Italy. At 2470 metres, it is the highest mountain p ass i n Euro pe. The fa mous mona stery of St Bernard, w hich was founded i n t he eleventh century, lies about a mile away. For hundreds of years, St Bernard dogs have saved the lives of travellers crossing the dangerous Pass. These friendly dogs, which were first brought from Asia, were used as watch-dogs even in Roman times. Now that a tunnel has been b uilt through the mountains, the Pass is less dangerous, b ut each year, t he dogs are sti ll sent ou t into the snow whenever a traveller is in difficulty. Despite the new tunnel, there are still a few people who rashly attempt to cross the Pass on foot.During the summer months, the monastery is very busy, for it is visited by thousands of people who cross the Pass in cars, As there are so many people about, the dogs have to be kept in a special en closure. In winter, ho wever, life at the monastery is qu ite dif ferent. T he temperature drops to -30 and ver y few people attempt to cross the Pass. The monks Prefer winter to summer for they have mo re privacy. The dogs have greater freedom, too, for they are allowed to wander outside their enclosure. The only regular visitors to the monastery in winter are parties of skiers who go th ere at Christmas and Easter. These young people, who love the peace of the mountains, always receive a warm.Welcome at St Bernard's monastery.Lesson9 Flying cats 飞猫Cats never fail to fascinate human beings. They can be friendly and affectionate towards humans, but they lead mysterious lives of their own as well. They never become submissive like dogs and horses. As a result, humans have learned to respect feline independence. Most cats remain suspicious of humans all their lives. One of the things that fascinates us most about cats is the popular belief that they have nine lives. Apparently, they is a good deal of truth in this idea. A cat’s ability to survive falls is based on fact.Recently the New York Animal Medical Centre made a study of 132 ca ts over a period of five months. All these cats had one experience in common: they had fallen off high buildings, yet only eight of them died from shock or injuries. Of course, New Yorkis the ideal place for such an interesting study, because there is no shorta ge of tall buildings. There are plenty of high-rise windowsills to fall from! One cat, Sabrina, fell 32 storeys, yet only suffered from a broken tooth. ‘ Cats behave like well-trained paratroopers,’ a doctor said. It seems that the further cats fall, the less they are likely to injure themselves. In a long drop, th ey reach speeds of 60 miles an hour and more. At high speeds, falling cats have time to relax. They stretch out their legs like flying squirrel. This increases th eir air-resistance and reduces the shock of impact when they hit the ground.Lesson10 The loss of TitanicThe great ship, Titanic, s ailed for New Yor k from Southampton on April 10th, 1912. She was carrying 1316 passengers and a crew of 89l. Even by modern standards, the 46,000 ton Titanic was a colossal ship. At that time, however, she was not only the largest ship that had ever been built, but was regarded as unsinka ble, for she had sixteen water- tight compartments. Even if two of th ese were flooded, she would still be abl e 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 waters of the North Atlantic, a huge iceberg was suddenly spotted b y a look-out. After the alarm had been given, th e great ship turned sharp ly to avoid a direct collision. The Ti tanic turned just in time, narrowly missing the immense wall of ice which rose over100 feet out of the water beside her. Suddenly, there was a sligh t trembling sound from below, and the captain went down to see what ha d happened. The noise had been so faint tha t no one thought that the ship had been damaged. Below, the captai n realized to hi s horror that the Titanic was sinking rapidly, for fi ve of her sixteen water-tight comp artments had al ready been fl ooded ! T he or der to aba ndon ship was given and hundreds o f peopl e plunged i nto the i cy water. As there were not enough life-boats for everybody, 1500 lives were lost.Lesson11 Not guiltyGoing through the Customs is a tiresome business. The strangest thing about it is that really honest people are often made to feel guilty. The hardened professional smuggler, on the other hand, is never troubled by such feelings, even if he has five hundred gold watches hidden in his suitcase. When I returned from abroad recently, a particularly officious young Customs Officer clearly regarded me as a smuggler.'Have you anything to declare?' he asked, looking me in the eye.'No,' I answered confidently.'Would you mind unlocking this suitcase please ?''Not at all,' I answered.The Officer went through the case with great care. All the things I had packed so carefully were soon in a dreadful mess. I felt sure I would never be able to close the case again. Suddenly, I saw the Officer's face l ight up. He had s potted a ti ny bottle at the bottom o f my case a nd he po unced on it with delight.'Perfume, eh?' he asked sarcastically. 'You should have declared that.' Perfume is not exem pt from import duty.''But it isn't perfume,' I said.' It's hair-oil.' Then I added wit h a smile,' It's a strange mixture I make myself.' As I expected, he did not believe me.'Try it!' I said encouragingly.The Officer unscrewed the cap and p ut the bottle to his nostrils. He was g reeted by an unpleasant smell which convinced him that I was telling the truth. A few minutes later, I was able to hurry away with precious chalk-marks on my baggage.Lesson12 Life on a desert islandMost of us have formed an unrealistic picture of life on a desert island. We sometimes imagine a desert island to be a sort of par adise where the sun always shines. Life there is simple and good.Ripe fruit falls from the trees and you never have to work. The other side of the picture is quite the opposite. Life on a desert island is wretched. You either starve to death or live like Robinson Crusoe, waiting for a boat which never comes. Perhaps there is an element of t ruth in both these pictures, but few of us have had the opportunity to find out.Two men who recently spent five days on a co ral island wished they had stayed there longer. They were taking a badly damaged boat from the Virgin Islands to Miami to have it repaired. During the journey, their boat began to sink. They quickly loaded a small ru bber dinghy with food, matches, and tins o f beer and rowed for a few miles ac ross the Car ibbean until they arrived at a tiny coral island. There were hardly any trees on the island and there was no water, but this did not prove to be a problem. The men collected rain-water in the rubber dinghy. As they had brought a spear gun with them, they had plenty to eat. They caught lobs ter and fish every day, and, as one of them put it 'ate like kings'. When a passing tanker rescued them five days later, both men were genuinely sorry that they had to leave.Lesson13 It’s only meAfter her husband had gone to work, Mrs Richards sent her children to school and went upstairs to her bedroom. She was too excited to do any housework that morning, for in the evening she would be going to a fancy dress party with her husband. She intended to dress up as a ghost and as she had made her costume the night before, she was impatient to try it on. Though the costume consisted only of a sh eet, it was very effective. After putting it on, Mrs Richards went downstairs. She wanted to find out whether it would be comfortable to wear.Just as Mrs Richards was entering the dining-room, there w as a knock o n the front door. She knew that it must be the baker. She had told him to come straight in if ever she failed to open the door and to leave the bread o n the kitchen ta ble. Not wanting to frighten the poor man, Mrs Richards quickly hid in the small st ore-room under the stairs. S he heard the front door open a nd heavy footsteps in th e hall. Suddenly the door of the store-room was opened and a m an entered. Mrs Richards realized that it must be the man from the Electricity Board who had come to read the meter. She tried to explain the situation, saying' It's only me', but it was too late. The man let out a cry and jumped back several paces. When Mrs Richards walked towards him, he fled, slamming the door behind him.Lesson14 A noble gangsterThere was a time when t he owners of shop an d businesses in Chicago had to pay large sums of money t o gangs ters i n ret urn f or' protecti on' I f the money was not pai d p romptly, t he gangsters would quickly put a man o ut of business by destroying his shop. Obtaining 'protecho n money' is not a modern crime. As long ago as the fourteenth century, an Englishman, Sir John Hawkwood, made the remarkable discovery that people would rather pay large sums of money than have their life work destroyed by gangsters.Six hu ndred years ag o, Si r Joh n Hawkwood arrived i n Ital y wi th a band of soldiers an d settled near Fl orence. He soon mad e a name for himself and came to b e known to the Italians as Giovanni Acuto. Whenever the Italian city-states were at war with each other, Hawkwood used to hire his soldiers to princes who were willing to pay the high price he demanded. In times of peace, when business was bad, Ha wkwood and his men w ould march i nto a ci ty-state and, after burning down a fe w farms, wo uld offer to g o away i f protection money wa s p aid to them. Hawkwood made large sums of money in this way. In spite of this, the Italians regarded him as a sort of hero. When he died at the age of eighty, the Florentines gave him a state funeral and had a picture painted which was dedicated to the memory of 'the most valiant sold ier and most notable leader, Signor Giovanni Haukodue'.Lesson15 Fifty pence worth of troubleChildren always appreciate small gif ts of money. Father, of course, provides a regular su pply of pocket-money, but uncl e s and a unts are always a so urce of extra income. With s ome children, small sums go a long way. If sixpences are not exchanged for sweets, they rattle for months inside money-boxes. O nly very thri f ty children manage to fill up a money-box. For most of them, sixpence is a small price to pay for a satisfying bar of chocolate.My nephew, George, has a money-box but it is always empty. Very few of the sixpences I have given him have found their way there. I gave him sixpence yesterday and advised him to save it. Instead, he bought himself sixpence worth of trouble. On his way to the sweet shop, he dropped his sixpence a nd it rolled along the pavement a nd then disappe ared down a drain. George took offhis jacket, rolled up his sleeves and pushed his right arm through the drain cover. He could not find his sixpence anywhere, and what is more, he could not get his arm out. A crowd of people gathered round him and a lady rubbed his arm with soap a nd butter, b ut George was firmly stuck. The fire-brigade was ca lled and two firemen freed George using a special type of grease. George was not too upset by his experience because the lady who owns the sweet shop heard about his troubles and rewarded him with a large box of chocolates.Lesson16 Mary had a little lambMary and her husband Dimitri lived in the tiny village of Perachora in southern Greece. One of Mary's prize possessions was a l ittle white lamb which her husband had given her. She kept it tied to a tree in a field during the d ay and went to fetch it every evening. One evening, however, the lamb was missing. The rope had been cut, so it was obvious that the lamb had been stolen. When Dimitri came in from the fields, his wife told him what had happened. Dimitri at once set out to find the thief.He knew it would not prove difficult in such a s mall village. After telling several of his f riends about the theft, Dimitri found out that his neighbour, Aleko, had suddenly acquired a new lamb. Dimitri immediately went to Aleko's house and angrily accused him of stealing the lamb. He told him he had better return it or he would call the police. Aleko denied taking it and led Dimitri into his back-yard. It was true that he had just bought a lamb, he explained, but his lamb was black. Ashamed of having acted so rashly, Dimitri apologized to Aleko for having accused him. While they were talking it began to rain and Dimitri stayed in Alek o's house until the rain stopped. When he went outside half an hour later, he was astonished to find that the little black lamb was almost white. Its wool, which had been dyed black, had been washed clean by the rain !Lesson17 The longest suspension bridge in the worldVerrazano, an Italian about whom little is known, sailed into New York Harbour in 1524 and named it Angouleme. He described it as 'a very agreeable situation located within two small h ills in the midst of which flowed a great river.' Though Verrazano is by no means considered to be a great explorer, his name will pro bably remain immortal, for o n No vember 21st, 1964, the greatest bridge in the world was named after him.The Verrazano Bridge, which was designed by Othmar Ammann, joins Brooklyn to Staten Island. It has a span o f 4260 feet. The bridge is so long that the shape of the earth had to be taken into account by its designer. Two great towers support four huge cables. The towers are built on immense underwater platforms made of steel and concrete. The platforms extend to a depth of over 100 feet under th e sea. These alone took sixteen months to build. Abo ve the surface of the water, the towers rise to a height of nearly 700 feet. They support the cables from which the bridge has been suspended. Each of the four cables contains 26,108 lengths of wire. It has been estimated that if the bridge were packed with cars, it would still only be carrying a third of i t s total capacity. However, size and str ength are n ot the onl y important things about t his bridge. Despite its immensity, it is both simple an d elegant, fulfilling its designer's dream t o create 'an enormous object drawn as faintly as possible'.Lesson18 Electric currents in modern artModern sculpture rarely surprises us any more. The idea that modern art can only be seen in museums is mistaken. Even people who take no interest in art cannot have failed to notice examples of modern sculpture on display in public places. Strange forms stand in gardens, and outside buildings and shops. We have got quite used to them. Some so-called 'modern' pieces have been on display for nearly fifty years.In spite of this, some people--including myself--were surprised by a recent exhibition of modern sculpture. The first thing I saw when I entered the art gallery was a notice which said: 'Do not touch the exhibits. Some of them are dangerous!' The objects on display were pieces o f moving sculpture. Odd ly shaped forms that are suspended from the ceiling and move i n response t o a gust of wind are qu ite f amiliar t o ev erybody. Th ese object s, however, were different. Lined up against the wall, there were long thin wires attached to metal spheres. The spheres had been magnetized and a ttracted or repelled each other all the time. In the centre of the hall, there were a number of tall structures which contained coloured lights. These lights flickered continuously like traffic lights which have gone mad. Sparks were emitted from small black boxes and red lamps flashed on and off an grily. It w as rath er lik e an e xhibition of prehistoric electronic equipment. These Pecul iar forms not only seemed designed to shock people emotionally, but to give them electric shocks as well !Lesson19 A very dear catKidnappers are rarely interested in Animals, but they recently took considerable interest in Mrs Eleanor Ramsay's cat. Mrs Eleanor Ramsay, a very wealthy old lady, has shared a flat with her cat, Rastus, for a great many y ears. Rastus leads an orderly life. He usually takes a short walk in the evenings and is always home by seven o'clock. One evening, however, he failed to arrive. Mrs Ramsay got very worried. She looked everywhere for him but could not find him.Three day after Rastus' disappearance, Mrs Ramsay received an an onymous letter. The writer stated that Rastus was in safe hands and would be returned immediately if Mrs Ramsay paid a ransom of &1000. Mrs Ramsay was instructed to place the money in a cardboard box and to leave it outside her door. At first, she decided to go to the police, but fearing that she would never see Rastus again --the letter had made that quite clear--she changed her mind. She drew &1000 from her bank and followed the kidnapper's instructions. The next morning, the box had disappeared but Mrs Ramsay was sure that the kidnapper would keep his word. Sure enough, Rastus arrived punctually at seven o'clock that evening. He looked very well, though he was rather thirsty, for he drank half a bottle of milk. The police were astounded when Mrs Ramsay told them what she haddone. She explained that Rastus w as very dear to her. Considering the amount she paid, he was dear in more ways than one!。

Future historians will be in a unique position when they come to record the history of our own times. They will hardly know which facts toselect from the great mass of evidence that steadily accumulates. What is more, they will not have to rely solely on the written word. Films, videos, CDs and CD-ROMS are just some of the bewildering amount of information they will have. 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 tusks 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 expressions 生词和短语calendarn. 历法,日历historiann. 历史学家uniqueadj. 无与伦比的steadilyadv. 不断地solelyadv. 唯一地videon. 录像CD-ROOMn.

Lesson 1 A puma at largePumas are large, cat-like animals which are found in America. When reports came into London Zoo that a wild puma had been spotted forty-five miles south of London, they were not taken seriously. 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. 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. Wherever it went, it left behind it a trail of dead deer and small animals like rabbits. Paw prints were seen in a number of places and puma fur was found clinging to bushes. Several people complained of 'cat-like noises' at night and a businessman on a fishing trip saw the puma up a tree. The experts were now fully convinced that the animal was a puma, but where had it come from? As no pumas had been reported missing from any zoo in the country, this one must have been in the possession of a private collector and somehow managed to escape. The hunt went on for several weeks, but the puma was not caught. It is disturbing to think that a dangerous wild animal is still at large in the quiet countryside.Language pointsPay attention: The points below are not covered by the mp3. It is better for you to listen to the mp3 first and try to take notes by yourselves.1,a puma at largeat large1:逃遁的,没有被控制的。

新概念第三册课文原文新概念英语第三册包含了多篇课文,以下是其中一篇课文的原文:Unit 1 A Puma at Large.Many animals in the United States live in zoos, but some of them live in the wild. Among the large animals are the pumas, or mountain lions. These animals are afraid of human beings, and usually run away when they see one. However, in 1890, a puma which was being chased by hunters, took refuge in a small house in the Rocky Mountains. The door was open, so the puma ran inside and hid under a bed. The hunters followed it into the house and looked everywhere for it. They were unable to find it and went away. The puma stayed under the bed for several days and then went back into the forest.以上是第三册第一单元的一篇课文《A Puma at Large》的原文。

该课文讲述了美国的动物有些生活在动物园,但也有一些生活在野外。

其中之一就是美洲狮,它们通常会害怕人类,一旦看到人就会逃跑。

然而,在1890年,一只被猎人追赶的美洲狮躲进了落基山脉的一间小屋。

门是开着的,所以美洲狮跑进去躲在床底下。

猎人们跟着它进了屋子,到处寻找,但却找不到,最后他们离开了。

新概念英语第三册第11课课文

新概念英语第三册第11课课文Customs Officers are quite tolerant these days, but they can still stop you when you are going through the Green Channel and have nothing to declare. Even really honest people are often made to feel guilty. The hardened professional smuggler, on the other hand, is never troubled by such feelings, even if he has five hundred gold watches hidden in his suitcase.When I returned from abroad recently, a particularly officious young Customs Officer clearly regarded me as a smuggler.'Have you anything to declare?' he asked, looking me in the eye.'No,' I answered confidently.'Would you mind unlocking this suitcase please?''Not at all,' I replied.The Officer went through the case with great care. All the things I had packed so carefully were soon in a dreadful mess. I felt sure I would never be able to close the case again. Suddenly, I saw the Officer's face light up. He had spotted a tiny bottle at the bottom of my case and he pounced on it with delight.'Perfume, eh?' he asked sarcastically. 'You should have declared that. Perfume is not exempt from import duty.''But it isn't perfume,' I said. 'It's hair gel.' Then I added with a smile, 'It's a strange mixture I make myself.'

“你就闻一闻吧!”我催促说。
海关官员拧开瓶盖,把瓶子放到鼻子底下。一股怪味袭来,使他相信了我说的真话。几分钟后,我终于被放行,手提划着宝贵的粉笔记号的行李,匆匆离去。
