英语初级口语(mp3+lrc字幕)Lesson06

Peter's uncle lived in the country. Once Peter went to stay with him for a few weeks.
Peter的叔叔住在乡下。Peter有一次和他叔叔在一起住了段时间。

Whenever they went for a walk or for a drive in the car and they passed somebody, his uncle waved.
当他们出去散步或者开车经过路人时，他的叔叔都会挥手。

Peter was surprised, and said, “Uncle George, you know everybody here. Where did you meet them all?”
Peter很吃惊，便说：“George叔叔，你认识这里的每一个人吗，你在哪里认识他们所有人的？”

“I don't know all these people,”said his uncle.
“我并不认识这里所有的人，”他叔叔说。

“Then why do you wave to them?”asked Peter.
“那你为什么跟他们挥手呢？”Peter问到。

“Well, Peter,”answered his uncle,“when I wave to someone and he knows me, he is pleased. He continues his journey with a happier heart.
“嗯，Peter，”他叔叔回答，“当我向认识我的人招手时，他会很高兴。他就能怀着开心的心继续他的旅途。

“But when I wave to someone and he doesn't know me, he is surprised and says to himself 'Who is that man? Why did he wave to me?' So he has something to think about during the rest of his journey, and that makes his journey seem shorter. So I make everybody happy.”
但当我向不认识我的人挥手时，他会很吃惊并且问自己‘那个人是谁？为什么他向我挥手呢’那样他剩余的旅途就有事情可想，那可以是他的旅途看上去变短了。所以我可以让每一个人开心。”

你觉得这么做可以让别人开心吗？小编不敢苟同哎，如果路上一个陌生人向我挥手我会想好多事，比如我认识那个人吗？会不会我忘记她了？那我岂不是很对不起她？别人跟我招手我却一脸茫然太不礼貌了吧？等等之类想到我脑袋爆炸。或许我想多了吧，嘿嘿，不过这么做确实也可能给别人造成困扰啦，我觉得微笑就足够了，你觉得类？

． Read the following conversation once. Underline the key words while reading and retell to your partner the dialogue in your own words.

Fred: If I won the Pools, I'd go round the world.
Bert: Would you? I wouldn't.
Fred: What would you do?
Bert: Oh, I don't know. I'd buy a big house with a garden for my wife and kids, I
suppose. But it's difficult to imagine having a lot of money.
Fred: One thing's certain. If I had a lot of money, I wouldn't work any more.
Bert: Wouldn't you? What would you do with all that spare time?
Fred: As I said, I'd go round the world.
Bert: What would you do after that?
Fred: Oh, I don't know. It'd take me a long time to go round the world.
Bert: It doesn't sound very exciting.
Fred: Anyway, we haven't won the Pools, and we're not likely to win them. So there
isn't much point in talking about it, is there?
Bert: I'd be happy if I got a rise.
Fred: And my wife would be happy if I bought her a mink coat.
Bert: Well, I'm not likely to get a rise and you haven't the money for a mink coat, so let's come down to earth and have another drink.
Fred: What will you have?
Bert: I'll have a pint of the best.
Fred: I'd have a Scotch if I were you. We deserve it.
Bert: All right. Make it a double, will you?
