Last weekI went to the theatre. I had a very good seat. The play was very interesting.
I did not enjoy it. A young man and a young woman were sitting behind me. They
were talking loudly. I got very angry. I could not hear the actors. I turned round. I
looked at the man andthe woman angrily. They did not pay any attention. In the
end, I could not bear it. I turned round again. 'I can't hear a word!' I said angrily.
'It's noneof your business,' the young man said rudely. 'This is a private
conversation!'

myaunt Lucy.'I've just arrived by train,' she said. 'I'm coming to see you.'

Postcards always spoil my holidays. Last summer, I went to Italy. I visited museums

he lent me a book.I read a few lines, but I did not understand a word. Everyday I
thought about holidays passed quickly, but I did not send cards to

thirty-seven cards. I spent the whole day in myroom, but I did not write a single
card!

If youpark your car in the wrong place, a traffic policeman will soon find it. Youwill
be
very luckyif he lets you go without a ticket. However, this does not always
c
police aresometimes very polite. During a holiday in Sweden, I found this note on

20 One manin a boat
独坐孤舟

Fishing ismy favourite sport. I often fish for hours without catching anything. But
this

does notworry me. Some fishermen are unlucky. Instead of catching fish, they catch
old
boots andrubbish. I am even less lucky. I never catch anything -- not even old

havingspent whole mornings on the river, I always go home with an empty bag.
'Youmust
give upfishing!' my friends say. 'It's a waste of time.' But they don't realize
oneimportant
thing. I'mnot really interested in fishing. I am only interested in sitting in a boat
anddoing
nothing atall!
21 Mad ornot?
是不是疯了

Aeroplanesare slowly driving me mad. I live near an airport and passing planes can
be
heardnight and day. The airport was built years ago, but for some reason it
couldnot be

used year, however, it came into use. Over a hundred people must have
been
drivenaway from their homes by the noise. I am one of the few people left.
SometimesI
think thishouse will be knocked down by a passing plane. I have been offered a
large sum
of moneyto go away, but I am determined to stay here. Everybody says I must be
mad and
they areprobably right.
22 A glass envelope
玻璃信封

Mydaughter, Jane, never dreamed of receiving a letter from a girl of her own agein
Holland. Last year, we were travelling acrossthe Channel and Jane put a piece of
paper
with hername and address on it into a bottle. She threw the bottle into the sea.
Shenever
thought ofit again, but ten months later, she received a letter from a girl in Holland.
Both

girlswrite to each other regularly now. However, they have decided to use the
swill cost a little more, but they will certainly travel faster.

新居

I had aletter from my sister yesterday. She lives in Nigeria. In her letter, she saidthat
she wouldcome to Englandnext year. If she comes, she will get a surprise. We are
now
living ina beautiful new house in the country. Work on it had begun before my
sisterleft.
The housewas completed five months ago. In my letter, I told her that she could
staywith
us. Thehouse has many large rooms and there is a lovely garden. It is a very modern
house, soit looks strange to some people. It must be the only modern house in
thedistrict.

upset. 'Ileft the money in my room,' I said, 'and it's not there now.' The manager
was

sympathetic,but he could do nothing. 'Everyone's losing money these days,' he said.
He
started tocomplain about this wicked world but was interrupted by a knock at the
door. A
girl camein and put an envelope on his desk. It contained $$50. 'I found this
outsidethis
gentleman'sroom,' she said. 'Well,' I said to the manager, 'there is still some
honesty in
thisworld!'
25 Do theEnglish speak English?
英国人讲的是英语吗
?
I arrivedin London atlast. The railway station was big, black and dark. I did not know
the way tomy hotel, so I asked a porter. I not only spoke English very carefully,
butvery
clearly aswell. The porter, however, could not understand me. I repeated my
question
severaltimes and at last he understood. he answered me, but he spoke neither
slowlynor

clearly.'I am a foreigner,' I said. Then he spoke slowly, but I could not
understandhim. My
teachernever spoke English like that! The porter and I looked at each other
andsmiled.
Then hesaid something and I understood it. 'You'll soon learn English!' he said.
Iwonder.
In England, eachperson speaks a different language. The English understand each
other,
but Idon't understand them! Do they speak English?
26 Thebest art critics
最佳艺术评论家

I am anart student and I paint a lot of pictures. Many people pretend that they
understandmodern art. They always tell you what a picture is 'about'. Of course,
many
picturesare not 'about' anything. They are just pretty patterns. We like them in
thesame
way thatwe like pretty curtain material. I think that young children often appreciate

modernpictures better than anyone else. They notice more. My sister is only
seven,but
she alwaystells me whether my pictures are good or not. She came into my room
yesterday.
'What areyou doing?' she asked.
'I'mhanging this picture on the wall,' I answered. 'It's a new one. Do you likeit?'
She lookedat it critically for a moment. 'It's all right,' she said, 'but isn't it upside
down?'
I lookedat it again. She was right! It was!

Butsome time laterit began to rain. The boys felt tired so they put out the fire and
crept intotheir

sleeping bags were warm and comfortable, so they all slept soundly.
Inthe
middle ofthe night, two boys woke up and began shouting. The tent was full of
water!They
all leaptout of their sleeping bags and hurried outside. It was raining heavily and
they
found thata stream had formed in the field. The stream wound its way across the
field and
thenflowed right under their tent!
