⑹ 求初中英語閱讀文章 （原文+翻譯）
1．Learning：A Lifelong Career【學習：一生的事業】
As food is to the body, so is learning to the mind. Our bodies grow and muscles develop with the intake of adequate nutritious food. Likewise, we should keep learning day by day to maintain our keen mental power and expand our intellectual capacity. Constant learning supplies us with inexhaustible fuel for driving us to sharpen our power of reasoning, analysis, and judgment. Learning incessantly is the surest way to keep pace with the times in the information age, and an infallible warrant of success in times of uncertainty.
Once learning stops, vegetation sets in. It is a common fallacy to regard school as the only workshop for the acquisition of knowledge. On the contrary, learning should be a never-ending process, from the cradle to the grave. With the world ever changing so fast, the cease from learning for just a few days will make a person lag behind. What's worse, the animalistic instinct dormant deep in our subconsciousness will come to life, weakening our will to pursue our noble ideal, sapping our determination to sweep away obstacles to our success and strangling our desire for the refinement of our character. Lack of learning will inevitably lead to the stagnation of the mind, or even worse, its fossilization, Therefore, to stay mentally young, we have to take learning as a lifelong career.
學習之於心靈，就像食物之於身體一樣。攝取了適量的營養食物，我們的身體得以生長而肌肉得以發達。同樣地，我們應該日復一日不斷地學習以保持我們敏銳的心智能力，並擴充我們的智力容量。不斷的學習提供我們用不盡的燃料，來驅使我們磨利我們的推理、分析和判斷的能力。持續的學習是在信息時代中跟時代並駕齊驅的最穩當的方法，也是在變動的世代中成功的可靠保證。
一旦學習停止，單調貧乏的生活就開始了。視學校為汲取知識的唯一場所是種常見的謬誤。相反地，學習應該是一種無終止的歷程，從生到死。由於世界一直快速地在變動，只要學習停頓數日就將使人落後。更糟的是，蟄伏在我們潛意識深處的獸性本能就會復活，削弱我們追求高貴理想的意志，弱化我們掃除成功障礙的決心，而且扼殺我們凈化我們人格的慾望。缺少學習將不可避免地導致心靈的停滯，甚至更糟地，使其僵化。因此，為了保持心理年輕，我們必須將學習當作一生的事業。
2．heavy shoolwork【課業繁重】
In my opinion, the schoolwork now being assigned to high school students is too heavy. While it is true that students need to study, they need other things as well if they are to grow into healthy and well-rounded alts. High should be allowed more time for play. Plying is not wasting time, as some think. It gives them physical exercise, and also exercise their imagination. Which tends to be stifled by too much study. Finally, the pressure put on high school students by excessive schoolwork can cause serious stress, which is unhealthy physically and mentally. I do not advocate the elimination of schoolwork. I do think, however, that a rection of the current heavy load would be beneficial to students and to the society as a whole.
我認為目前高中生的課業實在太重了，雖然說學生的確應當念書，但是要想長大成為健全的人，他門還需要一些其它的東西，所以應該給高中生較多從事娛樂的時間。娛樂並不如某些人所想的，是在浪費時間，它可以讓學生鍛煉身體，發揮被繁重課業扼殺的想像力。此外，繁重的課業加諸在高中生身上的壓力可能引起嚴重的情緒緊張，這對身心都有害。我並非主張廢除學校課業，但是我認為減輕目前繁重的課業對於學生和整個社會都是有益的。
3．Time【時間】
Lost time is never found again. This is something which I learned very clearly last semester. I spent so much time fooling around that my grades began to suffer. I finally realized that something had to be done. It was time for a change.
Now I have a new plan for using my time wisely. I have set my alarm clock ahead half an hour. This will give me a head start on the day. I have also decided to keep a log of what I do and when I do it. Looking back on what I』ve done will give me some ideas on how to reorganize my time.
時光一去不復返，這是我上學期清楚學到的教訓。我浪費很多時間四處游盪，以致於我的成績開始退步。最後我終於了解到我必須有所作為；該是痛改前非的時候了。
現在我有一個明智運用時間的新方法。我已將鬧鍾早撥半小時，這將使我這一天的作息提前開始。我也決定將我所做的一切及做這些事的時間記錄下來。回顧我所做的事情會啟發我如何重新安排我的時間。
4．Work and Play【工作與娛樂】
Work and play do not contradict each other; in fact, they complement each other. As the saying goes, "All work and no play makes Jack a ll boy." A life burdened with work leads you nowhere, for you would get tired and bored with your daily routine work. On the other hand, proper recreation will relieve the tension and discomfort of our monotonous life because it offers you various ways to let out your pent-up emotions.
What I usually do to relax after school is jogging and seeing movies. Usually I don't spare time for exercise, but I value the physical ecation class at school. Jogging several rounds in the field certainly relieves the day's pressure. On weekends, I'll catch the morning movie for my visual enjoyment. I feel revived and energetic for another week's work-load.
工作與娛樂並不互相沖突，事實上，它們之間的關系還相輔相成。有句格言說：「整日工作而沒有休閑娛樂，會令人變得沉悶乏味。」被工作重擔壓得喘不過氣來的生活，將使你一事無成，因為你將對一成不變的例行公事感到厭煩。由另一方面來說，適度的娛樂活動能提供各種管道，來渲泄你被壓抑的情緒，減輕單調生活中的緊張與不悅。
放學之後，我最常做的休閑活動，便是慢跑與看電影。通常我並不特地撥出時間來做運動，但是我很重視學校的體育課。在操場上慢跑幾圈，無疑地可以減輕一天的壓力。在周末時，我都去看早場電影，享受視覺饗宴。如此一來，我將有如再生般的充沛活力，去面對下一星期的工作量。
5．My first Job【我的第一份工作】
My first job was at a cramming school. It was three years ago when I just graated from junior high school and finished the entrance examination. since I had nothing to do that summer, I decided to find a job, tasting the joy of independence.
I was responsible for answering the telephone and taking the message. I worked eight hours a day, six days a week. The work was not difficult nor heavy to me and I guess I did well. The most delighted thing was perhaps that I could spend the money I earned all by myself.
我的第一份工作是在一家補習班做事。那是三年前我剛從國中畢業，考完聯考時的事了。既然我那整個夏天都閑著沒事，倒不如找份差事，嘗嘗獨立賺錢的快樂。
我負責接聽電話且紀錄留言的工作。我一天工作八小時，一星期工作六天。那份工作對我而言既不困難亦不沉重，所以我想我還滿稱職的。而最令人快樂的事大概莫過於花全部由自己賺來的錢了！
6．My Favorite Sports【我最喜愛的運動】
Sports help everyone to keep healthy, happy, and efficient. So I pay special attention to games, especially table-tennis. Table tennis is my favorite game. I play it almost every day.
Table-tennis is an ideal game us because it brings the whole body into action. It strengthens our muscles, expands our lungs, promotes the circulation of the blood, and causes a healthy action of the skin. Besides, it is very amusing and does not cost us much money. Table-tennis is very moderate; it is not so rough as football. It is an indoor game and can be played even on rainy days. Thus, it is my favorite kind of exercise.
運動能幫助每一個人保持健康、快樂和有效率。所以我特別重視運動，特別是撞球，撞球是我最喜歡的運動。我幾乎每天玩。
撞球對我們而言，是一項理想的運動，因為它可以使我們全身運動，它可以增強我們的肌肉，擴張我們的肺部，促進血液循環，並且使肌膚產生健康作用，此外，它很有趣而且所費不多。撞球是相當溫和適中的，它不像足球那麼粗野。它是一種室內運動，甚至在下雨天也能玩。因此，撞球是我最喜愛的一種運動。
7.經過一周的相處，我發現您是一個可愛而風趣的女士。上您的課時我總感覺時間飛逝。不過我還是不太習慣。不同於我們初中的學習方式的是，您總是在課堂上說口語。有時，我會發現您說的很難理解由於很快的語速、很多的生詞。這使我感覺聽課會很困難。對此我有一些建議。我希望您可以在最初的這段時間內，對您所用的生詞多作解釋。這將對我有很大幫助。謝謝。
希望我們能成為好朋友。我相信，以後聽您的課時我們將十分自信與快樂。
I found that you are a lovely and humourous lady after getting along with you for a week. Time flies when I am in your class. However I am not used to your way of teaching. you always speak English in the class, which is different from the way in middle school. Sometimes I found it's difficult to follow you because your fast speed of speach and many new words. Therefore, I have some suggestions. I hope you could explain more about the new words you often use ring this period of time. I think it will be a great help for me. Thanks.
I hope that we can be good friends. I believe that we will be more self-confident and happier in your class.

1.p6 UNIT 1 3a:In ten years,I think I"ll be a reporter.I"ll live inShanghai, 十年後，我想我會成為一名記者。我將住在上海。因為去年我去了上海，並愛上了這座城市。上海真的是座漂亮的城市。作為一名記者，我想我會遇到很多有趣的人。我想我會和自己最好的朋友住在一套公寓里，因為我不願意獨居。我會養寵物，但是我現在不能養，因為我媽媽討厭寵物，況且公寓太小。所以十年後，我會擁有許多不同的寵物。我可能甚至養一隻鸚鵡！我也許每天去溜冰和游泳。工作日里，我每天打扮精幹或許會著一身西裝。逢到周末，我穿得更休閑些。我想我會去香港度假，甚至有一天我會去澳大利亞游覽。 1.p8 UNIT 1 3a:Do you think you will have your own robot? 你認為你將會有屬於自己的機器人么？ 在一些科幻電影里，未來的人們都擁有自己的機器人。這些機器人就像人類一樣。他們幫助人們做家務和大多數令人感到厭煩的工作。 一些科學家相信將來會有這樣的機器人。然而，他們認為這需要花幾百年的時間才能成為現實。科學家們正在試圖研製看似人類且能和我們作相同工作的機器人。一些日本的公司已經製造出能走路和跳舞的機器人。這種機器人看起來非常有趣。 但是研究機器人的科學家詹姆斯懷特並不認同這類觀點。他認為要讓機器人和人類做一樣的事情是非常困難的。比如說，對一個孩子來說要醒來並知道自己身處何處是很簡單的。懷特認為機器人不能做到這一點。但是其他的科學家並不贊成。他們認為在未來的25到30年間，機器人就能和人類談話。 研究機器人的科學家們不只是在試圖讓機器人外觀接近人類。比如說，現在已經有能在工廠工作的機器人了。這些機器人看起來就像巨大的胳膊。他們能一遍又一遍重復簡單的工作。人類不喜歡做這類工作而且容易對此感到厭煩。但機器人永遠不會厭倦。 在未來，將到處都有更多的機器人，而人類要做的工作就更少了。新的機器人會有很多不同的形狀。一些看起來像人類，有些可能像蛇。在發生地震後，一種蛇形機器人能夠幫助尋找建築下埋著的人。這在現在看來還不可實現，但在一百年之前，電腦，太空火箭甚至電動牙刷也被視作不可能的存在的。我們永遠都不能了解未來會發生什麼！ 2. p14 UNIT 2 3a: Dear Mary, I have a problem, and I need your help. 親愛的瑪麗： 我有一個問題，我需要你的幫助。我以前經常以為我在學校里十分受歡迎。但是我才發現我的朋友們在為我的一位最要好的朋友准備生日派對，可是他們沒有邀請我，除了我，我們班的其他人都受到了邀請。我不知道為什麼。我並不知道我哪裡做錯了。我感到很沮喪卻也不知道應該去做什麼。你是怎麼想的？你能幫我嗎？ 孤單的孩子 2. p16 UNIT 2 3a: Maybe you should learn to relax! 也許，你應該學會放鬆！ Cathy Taylor三個孩子的生活十分繁忙。他們的學校生活就足夠繁忙。盡管在放學後，Cathy把兩個男孩從足球班帶到籃球班。然後，她不得不把她的女兒帶去學鋼琴。疲倦的孩子直到下午七點才能回家。他們迅速的吃一頓晚餐，然後他們就開始做家庭作業。 Taylors像許多美國和英國的父母一樣。他們把他們的孩子從一個活動帶到另一個活動，並試圖經可能的適應到他們的孩子的生活。醫生說許多孩子有非常多的壓力。而教師在教室中抱怨教學疲倦的孩子。 大多數孩子參加課外的輔導班。活動包括體育運動，語言學問，音樂，和數學類別。固執的家長沒有什麼新的東西，但是父母們現在似乎把他們的孩子推到更多的輔導班中去。父母看見其它做許多事情的孩子，而他們感到他們自己孩子應該做同樣。 Linda Miller，在倫敦三的一名母親，知道有關全部這樣pressure."In一些家庭，當他們十分年輕時，從十分年輕age,"she says."Mothers的競爭星把他們的孩子派遣到各種課。同時，他們總把他們與其它孩子比較。它是瘋狂的。人們不應該如此努力`推他們的孩子」。 綠色的博士Alice同意。她也說當他們是older."Parents時，這些孩子可能發現為了他們自己想是困難的試圖為了他們計劃他們的孩子的生活。當這些孩子是成年人時，他們可能發現計劃事情是困難的因為themselves."Parents應該學習給把他們的孩子有一點更多時間他們自己。一方面，孩子需要組織活動。另一方面，他們也需要時間和自由放鬆，而他們需要時間靠自己做事情。 3. p20 UNIT3 3a:Dear Jack, i had a very unusual experience on Sunday. 親愛的傑克: 我有一個非常不尋常的經歷在周日.大約在上午10點,我正在街上走,一架UFO著陸在我的前面.你可以想像這是多麼的奇怪!一個外星人走出來,然後沿著中心街走.我跟著它想看看它要去哪,我很驚奇當它走進一個禮品店.當它正在看禮品的時候,店裡的售貨員給警察打電話.在警察到之前,那個外星人已經離開商店去參觀航天博物館了.當那個外星人在博物館的時候,我給電視台打了電話.那太令人驚奇了! 3. p22 UNIT3 3a: Linda loves her dog Davy.They went to New York City last Saturday.While Linda was buying a newspaper at the train station,the dog got out of his box and ran away.The station was crowded and Linda couldn't see Davy anywhere.When Linda shouted his name,some people looked at her but Davy didn't come.Then she called the police. 琳達很喜歡她的狗狗戴維。上周六她們一起去紐約。當琳達在火車站買報紙的時候，她的狗狗從盒子里跑開了。火車站很喧鬧，琳達怎麼找也找不到戴維。琳達大聲叫著狗狗的名字，人們紛紛看著她，並幫他一起找，但狗狗並沒有出現。琳達就報了警。 就在琳達打電話的時候，戴維在火車站外遇見了另一條狗。當警察來的時候，琳達還在找她的狗並大喊他的名字，最後一個小男孩問他，你有沒去火車站外找找？我剛才進站的時候看到一條黑色的大狗。」 琳達終於見到了戴維，他正和另外那條狗追逐嬉戲。有一個警察局在他們旁邊。警察對琳達說：「我想，是我的狗找到了您的狗。 3. p24 UNIT 3 3a: Do you remember what you were doing ? 你是否記得你當時在干什麼呢？ 人們總能夠回憶起當一個在歷史上一 重大影響事件發生時自己在幹些什麼。例如，在美國很多同時代的人能夠清楚的回想起自己在1968年4月4日--一個在 美國現代歷史上舉足輕重的日子在做什麼，在這個灰暗的日子裡，馬丁路德.金博士在孟菲斯市遇刺。也許人們會不記得誰殺了馬丁博士，他們知道自己當時在干什麼。 就是一些日常生活事件也會被顯得很重要，羅伯特.阿倫先已年過40，當他聽見這個噩耗的時候他還是個學生，「那是個一望無垠，陽光燦爛的日子」他回憶道：「鈴響時我們正在操場嬉戲，我們老師要我們停止玩耍，他哽咽道，馬丁博士10分鍾前已經永遠離開我們了，我們都不敢相信這是真的 」放學後他 和其他同學一言不發的 一起回家。 馬丁博士的死訊一晃30年已過，那個時候還有很多當代人尚未出生。但是，在更近的時候，大部分美國人清楚的知道他們當時在干什麼當紐約世界貿易中心被恐怖分子摧毀的時候。甚至這個日期--2001.9.11在許多美國人心中也佔有重要的地位。 並不是所以的歷史大事是糟糕的，許多美國人依然記得自己在1969.6.20人類第一次涉足月球的時刻做什麼。遠的不說，就看前幾年。無數中國人記得他們當時在做什麼當中國小伙楊利偉成為神州第一個宇航員。楊在2003.10.15升空，在繞地22個小時後返回。當他回到母親的懷抱的時候，他已被人們視為 民族英雄，同時名揚全球！！ 4. p30 UNIT 4 3a: 近來一切可好？但願爺爺現在康復了。聽到他上周感冒了我很遺憾。希望你們的身體都健健康康的。這兒一切都好。我上周參加期末考，今天已經拿到成績報告單。 在郵箱里看到學校發過來的信件時，我總是覺得好緊張。幸好這次我幹得還算不錯。這學期的自然科學課程對我來說確實很難，所以，這一門課的老師給了我所有學科里最差的評價我一點也不吃驚。 自然科學的老師說我很懶，但這不是真的。我真的覺得自然科學很難學。另外，我的歷史考得也不好。我的歷史老師說我可以考得更好的。好消息來了，數學老師說我很勤奮，西班牙語老師說我的聽力很好。 好了，這些就是我想告訴你們的所有消息。老爸老媽讓我向你們問好。 4. p31 UNIT 4 3a: My best friend is Xiao Li, 我最好的朋友是小李，但是上周在學校我們大吵了一架，她不跟我說話。這都開始於她問我她是否可以抄我的作業。我問她為什麼要這么做，她說因為她忘了做。我說我覺得她抄我的作業不是個好主意。她問我為什麼我覺得這不是個好主意。我說這是一個壞習慣的開始，她應該自己做作業。她對我發火，說她不想再做最好的朋友。我說好，我確定她可以克服這個困難，並且她確實做到了。昨天她告訴我她對她發火表示抱歉。她說如果她自己做作業會好得多。 4. p32 UNIT 4 3a: She said helping others changed her life. 她說幫助別人改變了她的生活。 在甘肅省的一個貧窮的山村教中學生對你來說可能聽上去沒有什麼樂趣。不過，它改變了來自北京的楊蕾的生活。北京大學畢業生首先作為在一個一年計劃中的志願者去那裡。這項活動是由教育部和中國少先隊發起的。每年他們派100位志願者到中國的農村地區去任教。 山中的生活是楊蕾的一次新的經歷。她的村莊海拔是2，000米，起初稀薄的空氣使她覺得不舒服。食品非常簡單——教師一天3次都是吃粥。幸好，楊蕾的母親支持她。她說她和她的丈夫認為這是一種好的想法。「今天的年輕人有必要經歷不同的事情。」她說。 大多數小學生住在學校宿舍里。他們學習很刻苦。他們早晨5點起床一直學到晚上11點。他們喜歡志願教師到他們那裡去。「你和他們之間沒有差別，」楊蕾說，「他們說我們看起來就像他們的大哥哥大姐姐，並且他們感到很幸運。」 一些學生可能不能上高中或者大學。家庭貧窮，通常也沒有錢來接受教育。「我對此無能為力，」楊蕾說，「但是我能讓我的學生開擴眼界，並且給他們一個生活的好起點」，她說她喜歡給孩子們的一生留下好的影響。 楊蕾很享受她作為一位志願者的日子。一年的志願生活結束時，她說在完成她的研究之後，她將返回該地區。她現在是甘肅省平涼市某高中的一名數學教師。 5. p38 UNIT 5 3a:If I become an athlete, will I be happy? 如果成為了運動員，你會快樂嗎？ 對於許多年輕人來說，成為一個專業的運動員，你就可能創造一種能做自己喜歡的事情的生活。如果你變得有名，世界上的人們都可以認識你。許多運動員給學校和慈善機構捐款，並做著幫助他們的很多工作。這是一個許多人都沒有的偉大機遇。 然而，專業運動員也會有許多問題。如果你出名了，人們會一直注意著你並跟從你到處走。這會讓生活變麻煩(困難)！ 如果你為了生存而運動，你的工作有時是非常危險的。許多專業運動員都受過傷。如果你變富有了，你會很難知道誰才是你真正的朋友。事實上，許多名人抱怨他們不開心。他們都說自己在出名和富有之前的生活更快樂！ 6. p46 UNIT 6 3a: I am talking to you from the Hilltop School Skating Marathon. 我在山頂馬拉松滑雪學校跟你們講話。在此，學生滑雪是為了為慈善事業籌款。他們每滑一小時，每位學生將為慈善事業捐款10元。現在，馬拉松滑雪賽已進行了五個小時。幾名選手還在繼續滑雪。艾利森是第一個滑雪的，他已經滑了整整五個小時。下一個便是山姆，特已經滑了四個小時。劉寧也已經滑了兩小時。李辰一個小時前才開始滑。 6. p48 UNIT 6 3a: Dear Jack: Thanks for sending me the snow globe of the monster. 親愛的傑克： 謝謝你給我寄來怪獸的雪球，我很喜歡。事實上我覺得它大概是我最喜歡的東西。我收集雪球已經有七年了，我現在有226個。我媽媽告訴我我必須停止，因為我們已經沒地方存放它們了。它們遍布在我們寓所的外圍，我甚至在我床下的盒子里存放它們。我最先得到的雪球是在我七歲生日那天得到的一個生日蛋糕雪球。我特別喜歡有動物的雪球。我有一個裝著許多小熊的大雪球，另一個裝著企鵝。如果你知道有誰也在收集雪球，請告訴我吧。我想成立一個雪球收集的俱樂部。順便問一句：你的愛好是什麼？ 你的艾倫 6. p50 UNIT 6 : I』ve been studying history in China 我在中國學歷史 我的名字叫里奧。我來自澳大利亞，在中國教書已經兩年了。我在黑龍江的首府哈爾濱教書。這是一個很有趣，有著五彩歷史的城市。這個城市受到一些歐洲國家的影響，在哈爾濱有的古建築還是俄羅斯風格。自從我來到中國，我學習了很多關於我家的歷史。盡管我是澳大利亞人，但我家人是猶太人。所以對我來說學習關於猶太人在哈爾濱是非常有意思的。實際上，第一個猶太人可能是在一千多年前來開封的，並受到宋朝的歡迎。 當我住在澳大利亞的時候，我在學校學習了歷史，但我們一般都是學習澳大利亞史或者西方史。然而，當我聽到我將要來中國工作的時候，我開始學習中國歷史。到現在我已經學了兩年了。我在澳大利亞的朋友告訴我說中國歷史很難懂，但我不同意。我想如果你很努力的去學，你將學會任何一種文化。像我作為一個外國人，學了越多的中國歷史，越覺得生活在中國史一種享受。 盡管我住的地方離北京有些遠，但我還是一定會去看08年的奧運會的 7. p56 UNIT 7 3a: I can't stand it! 我不能忍受它 當售貨員在接一個很長的電話時，我不喜歡排隊等著。如果這種事情發生了，我經常會說，「你介意幫我一下嘛？我也不喜歡售貨員跟著我到處轉悠。然後我會說,"請你不要跟著我好嗎?如果我需要你，我會叫你."通常，售貨員會說他們感到很抱歉,但是有時候他們會很生氣。如果這樣事情發生，我就再也不會光顧那家店。 當我在閱讀時有人和我說話，我會感到惱火。這在學校圖書館里一直發生在我頭上。當這種事發生時，出於禮貌我往往會跟那個人說話。但因為我很禮貌，人們不知道我很惱火。所以他們會再次做同樣的事。也許將來我該試著不表現得那麼禮貌。 7. p58 UNIT 7 : Would you mind keeping your voice down? 說話聲音小一點，好嗎？ 如果你在任何時候到說英語的國家，你可能聽到這個詞語「禮節」。它指的是正常禮貌的社交行為。起初，這似乎像個很難的詞，但理解起來會很有用。 禮節在每一種文化或每一個場合並不總是一樣的。例如，在一些亞洲國家與你正交談的人近距離站著是很平常的。不過如果你在歐洲這樣做，有一些人會感覺不舒服。甚至在中國，大家都知道在各種場合下禮節並不總是一樣的。也許我們認為在自己家裡大聲說話很好，但在有些地方，大聲交談是不被人接受的。例如，大多數人同意在圖書館、博物館或是影院大聲交談是不禮貌的。即使你和朋友在一起，在公共場所最好是壓低聲音。事實上，如果可能，我們應當注意不要在公共場所大聲咳嗽和打噴嚏。 如果我們看見有人違反了禮節的規定，我們可以禮貌的提醒一下他們。也許最禮貌的方法之一是去問某人，你介意做這件事嗎或您介意不做那件事吧。例如，如果有人在你前面插隊，你可以問他們，對不起，請您排隊好嗎？如果有人在公共汽車上吸煙，我們可以問，對不起，請您把煙掐滅好嗎？人們通常不喜歡被批評，因此我們得注意我們應該怎麼做。 盡管禮節的規則市場會不同，但有些規則幾乎全世界都一樣！例如，亂扔垃圾是不允許的。如果你看見有人這樣做，甚至在外國，你可以問他們把垃圾撿起來好嗎？ 8. p64 UNIT 8 3a: The trendiest kind of pet these days is the pot-bellied pig. 時下最流行的寵物是大肚豬。倫敦北部的David Smith 有一隻名叫Connie的大肚豬。「大肚豬是最好的寵物，」David說：「她每晚都在沙發上和我一起看電視。她是我最好的朋友。」無論如何，和豬在一起的生活並不總是完美的。「我剛把她抱回來時，她很小，」David說：「但她吃得很多。現在她大得不能在屋裡睡了，所以我給她做了個特製的豬窩。豬也需要許多愛。有時我沒有足夠的時間陪她。」 8. p65 UNIT 8 : Everyone likes gifts.Some little kids think they don't get enough gifts. 每個人都喜歡禮物。有些孩子覺得他們沒得到足夠的禮物。一些老人覺得他們收到的禮物太多了。不同的人喜歡不同種類的禮物。有些禮物永遠不嫌小。一個小孩可能會給媽媽一片樹上的葉子。這足夠令媽媽高興了。 在不同國家，送禮方式是不同的。人們有時會送特殊的禮物，但是未拆封的。之後，這禮物可能會被送給其他人。很多人有足夠的東西而且自己不想收太多的禮物。在加拿大，許多人不會把貴重禮品送給別人。他們會買下一把公園的長椅或一棵樹來紀念某個人。在美國，一些人叫他們的家人和朋友給慈善機構捐款而不是買禮物給他們。在瑞典，為某人做一件事是最好的禮物。人們不需要花很多錢。作為替代，請吃一頓飯就夠了。 8. p66 UNIT 8 READ:WHY DON'T YOU LEARN TO SING ENGLISH SONGS的全文翻譯 中國將主辦2008年奧運會，所有中國人想通過各種途徑提高英語水平。例如，24位青年歌手從中國各地匯集到一起進行英文流行歌曲演唱賽，一些歌手能夠唱得和英語母語歌手一樣好。 歌手真的來自中國不同年齡不同地方。男聲組冠軍是一位40歲的西安人，女聲組冠軍是一位19歲的大連姑娘。兩人都很謙虛，認為他們並不比其他人好多少。女聲組冠軍江梅說學習英語幫她獲得了獎金。6個月前，她覺得她的英語不太好，因此她必須努力學習。英語演唱賽使得她對於學習英語更有興趣了。 這樣的比賽鼓勵中國人學習英語。」中國人應該試著更多的說英語，我們應該在奧林匹克到來前得到提高「 奧委會的一位發言人這樣說道。他認為以娛樂的方式學習英語是一個好主意。 你聽過「北京說英語」節目嗎？如果沒有，為什麼不去看看呢？這個節目使北京人學英語更有興趣。除了唱英語歌曲，還有很多其他有趣的方式學習英語，看看英語電影，讀讀英文書籍，也許你甚至能交到一個母語是英語的朋友。如果你足夠努力，你將找到一條更好的學習英語的方法。 9. p70 UNIT 9 3a: Have you ever been to Disneyland?課文翻譯 你去過迪士尼公園么? 我們中的大多數人可能都聽說過米老鼠，唐老鴨和其他一些有名的迪士尼人物。我們甚至可以在電影中看到他們。但是你去過迪士尼樂園嗎？事實上，現在世界上已有幾座不同的迪士尼主題公園了。 迪士尼樂園是個娛樂的公園，但我們也可以叫它「主題公園」。它擁有你在其他公園可以找到的所有的娛樂設施，但是它有一個主題。當然，這個主題就是迪士尼電影和迪士尼人物。比如說，在其他一些公園你可以看到到摩天輪，但是在迪士尼樂園，摩天輪就有了「迪士尼人物」的主題。這意味著你可以在摩天輪的任何地方看到迪士尼人物。同樣，你也可以看有關迪士尼的電影，在迪士尼餐廳就餐，買迪士尼禮物。你還隨時可以看到迪士尼樂園里來回走動的迪士尼人物！ 你聽說過「迪士尼航行」嗎？那是同樣有迪士尼主題的巨大的船。你可以在船上航行幾天，還可以在甲板上吃東西睡覺。和迪士尼樂園一樣，甲板上也有許多吸引人的地方。你可以購物，參加迪士尼的聚會，和米老鼠一起吃晚餐。這些船有幾條不同的航線，但最終都會抵達同樣的地方。那就是屬於迪士尼樂園的小島。 在迪士尼樂園的樂趣簡直太多了！ 9. p72 UNIT 9 3a: Come to the Hilltop Language School and change your life. 來到Hilltop語言學校,改變你的人生! 第一篇:這里是兩名同學講述關於我校的事情 當我還是個小女孩,我就夢想著去旅行,因而我選擇了個最佳的方式—從事空中乘務員.我做這個行業已有兩年了,它的確是份有趣的工作,我能游遍世界各地,但也我發現說好英語對我來說是件多麼重要的事,正因如此早在當空乘之前我就在Hilltop語言學校學習五年了,我以一口流利的口語贏得了這份工作,謝謝, Hilltop語言學校! Mei Shan 第二篇: 我渴望當一名導游,事實上,這是我一直都很想要從事的事業.我渴望旅行,特別是英語國家,像是美國,澳大利亞.不論如何我知道我必須提高我的英語能力,於是我來到Hilltop語言學校進行口語學習, Hilltop語言學校對我的學習有很大的幫助,我已經在這里學滿一年了,非常熱愛這個地方.或許當我要離開這個學校的時候,我開始想做一名英語教師的熱情會大過於想做一名導游! David Feng 9. p74 UNIT 9 3a: Have you ever been to Singapore？翻譯！ 你去過新加坡嗎？ 對於很多中國旅遊者來說，這個位於東南亞的小島是個度假的好去處。一方面，超過四分之三的人是中國人，你在大多數時間可以說普通話。另一方面，新加坡是個講英語的國家，所以那裡是你練習英語的好地方。 你曾經在中國以外的地方吃過中國菜嗎？可能你會擔心在國外你不能找到任何吃的。在新加坡，你能找到很多來自中國的食物；你不難找到米飯、面條或是餃子。然而，如果你夠大膽，新加坡是個嘗試新食物的好地方。無論你喜歡印度菜還是日本菜，你都可以在新加坡找到。 許多城市都有動物園，但是你在夜裡去過動物園嗎？新加坡有個夜間動物園叫做"Night Safari"（夜間野生動物園）。在夜晚去可能看起來很奇怪。但你只要白天去過你就可能理解這個動物園的奇特之處。大部分動物只在夜間醒來，所以那時是觀看它們的最好時間。如果你在白天去看獅子、老虎或是狐狸，它們可能在睡覺！在夜間野生動物園，你可以在比普通動物園更自然的環境下觀看這些動物。 在新加坡，很棒的是一年到頭溫度都大致相同。這時因為這個島很靠近赤道。所以你可以選擇任何你喜歡的時間去——春夏秋或冬！另外，它離中國並不遠！ 10. p80 UNIT 10 3a: 1.親愛的Kim 作為一名新生有時在學校真的很難，但是周六的晚上我渡過了一段美妙的時光。非常感謝你能邀請我參加。有一些女孩子我並不認識，但是她們對我都很友善。還有你放的那段影片真的是太有意思了。現在我感覺我就是你們其中的一員了。 Maria 2.親愛的Tony 謝謝你上周帶我去看學校。在你陪我去那之前我一直找得很辛苦。我很高興能見到Carlos。他的數學太棒了，不是嗎？他對我說他將會幫助我學習數學。朋友們都像你一樣使得我更容易的融入到新環境中。 Bill 3.親愛的Allen 謝謝你下周球賽的門票。很遺憾你和你的父親不能去，但我真的好高興能擁有球賽門票。我准備邀請我的堂弟Tommy和我一起去。當黑襪子贏得了比賽我會想起你的。（我希望！） John

5.The Komodo lizard is the world's largest lizard(蜥蜴). It was not discovered until this century and was named only in 1921. It was formerly found on three Indonesian islands: Komodo, Rintja and Flores. By the 1930's, in spite of government protection, the population of this great lizard had been reced to a few hundred. It was, however, still found on the three main islands and there were still lizards of over 4 metres in length. By 1963, after a period of only fifty years since its discovery, the entire population was based on Komodo. It is now unusual to see one as long as 3 metres. The lizard's normal food consists mainly of wild goats and pigs, animals which the islanders also hunt. This, of course, means that the lizard often gets too little to eat. It will certainly die out soon its hunting and breeding(繁殖) grounds are protected more effectively.
6.At the Barber's Shop(理發店)
Jack went to a barber's shop and had his hair cut, but when he came out, he
was not happy with the result(結果). When his friend Bob saw him, he laughed
and said, "What has happened to your hair,Jack?"
Jack said, "I tried a new barber's shop today, because I wasn't quite satisfied
with my old one, but this one seems even worse."
Bob agreed(同意). "Yes, I think you're right, Jack. Now I'll tell you what
to do when you go into a barber's shop next time: look at all the barber's hair,
find out whose hair looks worst, and then go straight to him."
"Why shall I go to him?" Jack asked. "But that would be foolish!"
"Oh, no, it wouldn't," answered Bob. "Who cut that man's hair? Just think
it. He couldn't cut it himself, could he? Another of the barbers cut it. So
you know he can't be the worst barber."
7.Mr Perkin's New Car
Mr Perkin stood at the bus-stop and watched the cars go by. Many of the cars
were new Beta 400s, and most of them were yellow. Mr Perkin always wore the
same clothes as other men, ate the same food as other people, and did the same
things after work, and at the end of the week, Mr Perkin did not like to be
different.
The following week, Mr Perkin bought a new, bright yellow Beta 400s. He was
satisfied with it, and drove to work in it the very next day. He was even more
satisfied with his new car, when he saw all the other Beta 400s, in front, behind,
and on both sides of him.
Mr Perkin parked(停車) his car in a big car-park(停車場) near his office,
and walked the rest of the way. But when he came back at five o'clock, there
were so many bright yellow Beta 400s in the car-park that he did not know which
car was his. He tried his key in some of the cars, but people passing by gave
him a look he didn't like. So he stopped.
Poor Mr Perkin had to wait nearly two hours until his was the only yellow
Beta 400s in the car-park.
8.A long time ago people thought that the sun went round the earth. In some
countries people even said that the sun was a god(神). They thought the god
drove across the sky each day on a golden horse. Now we know the earth goes
round the sun. It takes the earth a year to go all way round the sun. Today
men even know how far it is for the earth to go round the sun. They tell us
that the earth travels over a thousand miles a minute on its journey round the
sun.\$
The sun is really a star. It is much bigger than the earth and it is very
hot. Some people have been to the moon but we know that no one can ever go to
the sun. It is far too hot for people to live anywhere near it. The sun is three
hundred thousand times heavier than the earth and more than million times larger.\$
9.The Farmer, His Horse, and His son
Once there was an old farmer, with a horse which was almost as old as himself.
He set out one morning with his son to sell the horse before it died. Father
and son walked, because the farmer did not want the horse to be too tired.
They met two men on the road who said, "Why are you walking, farmer? You have
a horse, It's a long way to market(市場). "The farmer know that this was true,
so he rode on the horse, while his son walked.
Then they met two old women, "What are you doing up there, farmer? Can't you
see how tired boy is?" So the farmer got down, and his son rode instead.\$
Next, three old men stopped them, one said, "Why are you walking, farmer?
Get up, It's too hot for an old man like you to walk today," So the farmer got
up behind his son, and they rode on.
Some time later, a young woman passed them, "Why aren't you walking?" she
asked, "It isn't far to the market. Give your poor horse a rest."
So the farmer, and his son, got down once again. It is a fact that you cannot
please all the people all the time.
10.I Want to Be a Dustman
Tom was ten years old, and he was a very lazy boy, He didn't like doing any
work. He had to go to school of course, but he didn't study hard there and tried
to do as little work as possible. His father and mother were both doctors and they
hoped that their son would become one, too, when he grew up. But one day Tom
said to his mother, "When I finish school, I want to be a stman."
"A stman?" his mother asked, she was very surprised. "That's not a very
pleasant job, why do you
