抱薪救火
Carrying Faggots to Put Out a Fire
摘要：戰國末期，秦國向魏國接連發動大規模的進攻，魏國無力抵抗，大片土地都被秦軍佔領了。到公元前273年，秦國又一次向魏國出兵，勢頭空前猛烈。
In the last years of the Warring States period, the State of Qin attacked the State of Wei on a large scale repeatedly and occupied large areas of land, for the State of Wei was too weak to defend itself. In 273 B.B., the qin army launched another attack upon the State of Wei with a momentum more vigorous than ever.
The king of the State of Wei summoned his officials,and asked with a worried look if anyone could propose a way to defeat the Qin army. After years of chaos caused by the wars,the officials trembled when fighting was mentioned, and no one dared to speak ofresistance. At the critical moment when a large enemy force was bearing down upon the border, most of the offinials persuaded the king to sue for peace, at the cost of giving away to the State of Qin the large area of land north of the Huanghe River and south of the Taihang Mountain.
However Su Dai, a counsellor, did not agree. He hurried up to the king and said:"Your Majesty, they don't think about the interests of the country at all.It is just because they are cowardly and afraid of death that they ask you to sue for peace by betraying the country. Of course you can temperarily satisfy the ambition of the king of the State of Qin is insatiably greedy. It will never stop assaulting us until our land is totally given away."Once there was a man whose house was on fire. People told him to put out the fire with water, but he would not listen. Instead, he carried a faggot to put out the fire, only to make the fire fiercer. That was because he didn't know that,instead of putting out the fire, faggots could only make it burning more vigorously. Isn't it equivalent to carrying faggots to put out a fire if you agree to sue for peace at the cost of the land of the State of Wei?"
Though Su Dai's argument was very convincing, the king accepted the suggestion of those officials and gave away to the State of Qin a large area of the land of the State of Wei. For the king of the State of Wei was cowardly and only cared for peace at the moment.As might be expected,the Qin army assaulted the State of Wei on a large scale in 225 B.C.,surrounding the capital city Daliang and flooding it by digging open the dykes of the Huanghe River.The State of Wei was finally destroyed by the State of Qin.
This story appears in the Historical Records Written by Sima Qian.The set phrase"carrying faggots to put out a fire"is used to mean adopting a wrong method to save a situation and ending up by making it worse.
戰國末期，秦國向魏國接連發動大規模的進攻，魏國無力抵抗，大片土地都被秦軍佔領了。到公元前273年，秦國又一次向魏國出兵，勢頭空前猛烈。
魏王把大臣們召來，愁眉苦臉地問大家有沒有使秦國退兵的辦法。大臣們由於經過多年的戰亂，提起打仗就嚇得哆嗦，誰也不敢談「抵抗」二字。在這大兵壓境的危急時刻，多數大臣都勸魏王，用黃河以北和太行山以南的大片土地為代價，向秦王求和。
謀士蘇代聽了這些話，很不以為然，忙上前對魏王說：「大王，他們是因為自己膽小怕死，才讓您去賣國求和，根本不為國家著想。您想，把大片土地割讓給秦國雖然暫時滿足了秦王的野心，但秦國的慾望是無止境的，只要魏國的土地沒割完，秦軍就不會停止進攻我們。」說到這里，蘇代講了一個故事：從前有一個人，他的房子起火了，別人勸他快用水去澆滅大火，但他不聽，偏抱起一捆柴草去救火，是因為他不懂得柴草不但不能滅火反而能助長火勢的道理。大王若同意拿著魏國土地去求和，不就等於抱著柴草救火嗎?」
盡管蘇代講得頭頭是道，但是膽小的魏王只顧眼前的太平，還是依大臣們的意見把魏國大片土地割讓給秦國。到公元225年，果然秦軍又向魏國大舉進攻，包圍了國都大梁，掘開黃河大堤讓洪水淹沒了大梁城，魏國終於被秦國滅掉了。
故事出自《史記·魏世家》。成語「抱薪救火」比喻用錯誤的方法去消滅禍害，結果反而使禍害擴大。

掩耳盜鈴
At the time when Fan, a nobleman of the state of Jin, became a fugitive, a moner found abell and wanted to carry it off on his back. But the bell was too big for him. When he tried toknock it into pieces with a hammer there was a loud clanging sound. He was afraid thatsomeone will hear the noise and take the bell from him, so he immediately stopped his ownears.
To worry about other people hearing the noise is understandable, but to worry about himselfhearing the noise as if stopping his own ears would prevent other people from hearing isabsurd.

小偷找來一把大大錘，拚命朝鍾砸去，咣的一聲巨響，把他嚇了一大跳。小偷著慌，心想這下糟了，這種聲不就等於是告訴人們我正在這里偷鍾嗎?他越聽越害怕，不同自由地抽回雙手，使勁捂住自已的耳朵。「咦，鍾聲變小了，聽不見了!」小偷高興起來，「妙極了!把耳朵捂住不住就聽不進鍾聲了嗎!」他立刻找來兩個布團，把耳朵塞住，心想，這下誰也聽不見鍾聲了。於是就放手砸起鍾來，一下一下，鍾聲響亮地傳到很遠的地方。人們聽到鍾聲蜂擁而至把小偷捉住了。

烈日下，一老翁坐在岸邊，兩眼一動不動的盯著河面的浮標，從日出到日落，依然兩手空空，老翁卻怡然自得，樂在其中。我很是納悶。
老翁笑著說：「我即魚，魚即我，我在釣魚，魚也在釣我，就像下棋，我和魚的耐力旗鼓相當，這才過癮.」一頑童向水中扔一塊石頭，一陣波紋飄盪過來，老翁曰：「起風了。」
人生就是一盤棋，而幸福就是投入。

PUZZLES IN GEOGRAPHY
People may wonder why different words are used to describe these four countries: England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. You can clarify this question if you study British history.
First there was England. Wales was linked to it in the thirteenth century. Now when people refer to England you find Wales included as well. Next England and Wales were joined to Scotland in the seventeenth century and the name was changed to "Great Britain". Happily this was accomplished without conflict when King James of Scotland became King of England and Wales as well. Finally the English government tried in the early twentieth century to form the United Kingdom by getting Ireland connected in the same peaceful way. However, the southern part of Ireland was unwilling and broke away to form its own government. So only Northern Ireland joined with England, Wales and Scotland to become the United Kingdom and this was shown to the world in a new flag called the Union Jack.
To their credit the four countries do work together in some areas (eg, the currency and international relations), but they still have very different institutions. For example, Northern Ireland, England and Scotland have different ecational and legal systems as well as different football teams for competitions like the World Cup!
England is the largest of the four countries, and for convenience it is divided roughly into three zones. The zone nearest France is called the South of England, the middle zone is called the Midlands and the one nearest to Scotland is known as the North. You find most of the population settled in the south, but most of the instrial cities in the Midlands and the North of England. Although, nationwide, these cities are not as large as those in China, they have world-famous football teams and some of them even have two! It is a pity that the instrial cities built in the nineteenth century do not attract visitors. For historical architecture you have to go to older but smaller towns built by the Romans. There you will find out more about British history and culture.
The greatest historical treasure of all is London with its museums, art collections, theatres, parks and buildings. It is the centre of national government and its administration. It has the oldest port built by the Romans in the first century AD, the oldest building begun by the Anglo-Saxons in the 1060s and the oldest castle constructed by later Norman rulers in 1066. There has been four sets of invaders of England. The first invaders, the Romans, left their towns and roads. The second, the Anglo-Saxons, left their language and their government. The third, the Vikings, influenced the vocabulary and place-names of the North of England, and the fourth, the Normans, left castles and introced new words for food.
If you look around the British countryside you will find evidence of all these invaders. You must keep your eyes open if you are going to make your trip to the United Kingdom enjoyable and worthwhile.
SIGHTSEEING IN LONDON
Worried about the time available, Zhang Pingyu had made a list of the sites she wanted to see in London. Her first delight was going to the Tower. It was built long ago by the Norman invaders of AD 1066. Fancy! This solid stone, square tower had remained standing for one thousand years.Although the buildings had expanded around it, it remained part of a royal palace and prison combined. To her great surprise, Zhang Pingyu found the Queen's jewels guarded by special royal soldiers who, on special occasions, still wore the four-hundred-year-old uniform of the time of Queen Elizabeth I.
There followed St Paul's Cathedral built after the terrible fire of London in 1666. It looked splendid when first built! Westminster Abbey, too, was very interesting. It contained statues in memory of dead poets and writers, such as Shakespeare. Then just as she came out of the abbey, Pingyu heard the famous sound of the clock, Big Ben, ringing out the hour. She finished the day by looking at the outside of Buckingham Palace, the Queen's house in London. Oh, she had so much to tell her friends!
The second day the girl visited Greenwich and saw its old ships and famous clock that sets the world time. What interested her most was the longitude line. It is an imaginary line dividing the eastern and western halves of the world and is very useful for navigation. It passes through Greenwich, so Pingyu had a photo taken standing on either side of the line.
The last day she visited Karl Marx's statue in Highgate Cemetery. It seemed strange that the man who had developed communism should have lived and died in London. Not only that, but he had worked in the famous reading room of the Library of the British Museum. Sadly the library had moved from its original place into another building and the old reading room was gone. But she was thrilled by so many wonderful treasures from different cultures displayed in the museum. When she saw many visitors enjoying looking at the beautiful old Chinese pots and other objects on show, she felt very proud of her country.
The next day Pingyu was leaving London for Windsor Castle. "Perhaps I will see the Queen?" she wondered as she fell asleep.

Anne』s Best Friend Do you want a friend whom you could tell everything to, like your deepest feelings and thoughts? Or are you afraid that your friend would laugh at you, or would not understand what you are going through? Anne Frank wanted the first kind, so she made her diary her best friend. Anne lived in Amsterdam in the Netherlands ring World War Ⅱ. Her family was Jewish so nearly twenty-five months before they were discovered. During that time the only true friend was her diary. She said, 」I don』t want to set down a series of facts in a diary as most people do, but I want this diary itself to be my friend, and I shall call my friend Kitty.」 Now read how she felt after being in the hiding place since July 1942. Thursday 15th June, 1944 Dear Kitty, I wonder if it』s because I haven』t been able to be outdoors for so long that I』ve grown so crazy about everything to do with nature. I can well remember that there was a time when a deep blue sky, the song of the birds, moonlight and flowers could never have kept me spellbound. That』s changed since I was here. …For example, one evening when it was so warm, I stayed awake on purpose until half past eleven in order to have a good look at the moon by my self. But as the moon gave far too much light, I didn』t dare open a window. Another time five months ago, I happened to be upstairs at sk when the window was open. I didn』t go downstairs until the window bad to be shut. The dark, rainy evening, the wind, the thundering clouds held me entirely in their power; it was the first time in a year and a half that I』d seen the night face to face… …Sadly …I am only able to look at nature through dirty curtains hanging before very sty windows. It』s no pleasure looking through these any longer because nature is one thing that really must be experienced. Yours, Anne
安妮最好的朋友 你是不是想有一位無話不談能推心置腹的朋友呢?或者你是不是擔心你的朋友會嘲笑你，會不理解你目前的困境呢?安妮·弗蘭克想要的是第一種類型的朋友，於是她就把 日記 當成了她最好的朋友。 安妮在第二次世界大戰期間住在荷蘭的阿姆斯特丹。她一家人都是猶太人，所以他們不得不躲藏起來，否則他們就會被德國納粹抓去。她和她的家人躲藏了兩年之後才被發現。在這段時間里，她唯一的忠實朋友就是她的日記了。她說，「我不願像大多數人那樣在日記中記流水賬。我要把這本日記當作我的朋友，我要把我這個朋友稱作基蒂」。安妮自從1942年7月起就躲藏在那兒了，現在，來看看她的心情吧。 親愛的基蒂： 我不知道這是不是因為我長久無法出門的緣故，我變得對一切與大自然有關的事物都無比狂熱。我記得非常清楚，以前，湛藍的天空、鳥兒的歌唱、月光和鮮花，從未令我心迷神往過。自從我來到這里，這一切都變了。 ??比方說，有天晚上天氣很暖和，我熬到11點半故意不睡覺，為的是獨自好好看看月亮。但是因為月光太亮了，我不敢打開窗戶。還有一次，就在五個月以前的一個晚上，我碰巧在樓上，窗戶是開著的。我一直等到非關窗不可的時候才下樓去。漆黑的夜晚，風吹雨打，雷電交加，我全然被這種力量鎮住了。這是我一年半以來第一次目睹夜晚?? ??令人傷心的是??我只能透過臟兮兮的窗簾觀看大自然，窗簾懸掛在沾滿灰塵的窗前，但觀看這些已經不再是樂趣，因為大自然是你必須親身體驗的。
Using Language Reading, listening and writing 親愛的王小姐： 我同班上的同學有件麻煩事。我跟我們班裡的一位男同學一直相處很好，我們常常一起做家庭作業，而且很樂意相互幫助。我們成了非常好的朋友。可是，其他同學卻開始在背後議論起來，他們說我和這位男同學在談戀愛，這使我很生氣。我不想中斷這段友誼，但是我又討厭人家背後說閑話。我該怎麼辦呢? Reading and writing 尊敬的編輯： 我是蘇州高中的一名學生。我有一個難題，我不太善於同人們交際。雖然我的確試著去跟班上的同學交談，但是我還是發現很難跟他們成為好朋友。因此，有時候我感到十分孤獨。我確實想改變這種現狀，但是我卻不知道該怎麼辦。如果您能給我提些建議，我會非常感激的。
高一英語課本原文及翻譯2
the Road to Modern English At the end of the 16th century, about five to seven million people spoke English. Nearly all of them lived in England. Later in the next century, people from England made voyages to conquer other parts of the world, and because of that, English began to be spoken in many other countries. Today, more people speak English as their first, second or a foreign language than ever before. Native English speakers can understand each other even if they don』t speak the same kind of English. Look at this example: British Betty: Would you like to see my flat? American Amy: Yes. I』d like to come up to you apartment. So why has English changed over time? Actually all languages change and develop when cultures meet and communicate with each other. At fist the English spoken in England between about AD 450 and 1150 was very different from the English spoken today. It was base more on German than the English we speak at present. Then graally between about AD 500 and 1150, English became less like German because those who ruled England spoke first Danish and later French. These new settlers enriched the English language and especially its vocabulary. So by the 1600』s Shakespeare was able to make use of a wider vocabulary than ever before. In 1620 some British settlers moved to America. Later in the 18th century some British people were taken to Australia to. English began to be spoken in both countries. Finally by the 19th century the language was settled. At that time two big changes in English spelling happened: first Samuel Johnson wrote his dictionary and later Noah Webster wrote The American Dictionary of the English language. The latter gave a separate identity to American English spelling. English now is also spoken as a foreign or second language in South Asia. For example, India has a very large number of fluent English speakers because Britain ruled India from 1765 to 1947. During that time English became the language for government and ecation. English is also spoken in Singapore and Malaysia and countries in Africa such as South Africa. Today the number of people learning English in China is increasing rapidly. In fact, China may have the largest number of English learners. Will Chinese English develop its own identity? Only time will tell.
通向現代英語之路 16世紀末期大約有5百萬到7百萬人說英語，幾乎所有這些人都生活在英國。後來，在17世紀英國人開始航海征服了世界 其它 地區。於是，許多別的國家開始說英語了。如今說英語的人比以往任何時候都多，他們有的是作為第一語言來說，有的是作為第二語言或外語。 以英語作為母語的人，即使他們所講的語言不盡相同，也可以互相交流。請看以下例子： 英國人貝蒂：「請到我的公寓(flat)里來看看，好嗎?」 美國人艾米：「好的。我很樂意到你的公寓(apartment)去。」 那麼，英語在一段時間里為什麼會起變化呢?事實上，當不同 文化 互相交流滲透時，所有的語言都會有所發展，有所變化。首先，在公元450年到1150年間，人們所說的英語跟今天所說的英語就很不一樣。當時的英語更多地是以德語為基礎的，而現代英語不是。然後，漸漸地，大約在公元800年到1150年期間，英語不那麼像德語了。因為那時的英國的統治者起初講丹麥語後來講法語。這些新的定居者大大豐富了英語語言，特別是在詞彙方面。所以到17世紀，莎士比亞所用的詞彙量比以前任何時期都大。在1620年，一些英國人搬遷到美洲定居。後來，到了19世紀，有些英國人也被送往澳大利亞，兩個國家的人都開始說英語了。 最後，到20世紀，英語才真正定形。那時，英語在拼寫上發生了兩大變化：首先，塞繆爾·約翰遜編寫了詞典，後來，諾厄·韋伯斯特編纂了《美國英語詞典》，後者體現了美國英語拼寫的不同特色。 現在，英語在南亞也被當作外語或第二語言來說。比如說，印度擁有眾多講英語很流利的人，這是因為英國於1765年到1947年統治過印度。在那期間，英語成了官方語言和 教育 用語。在新加坡、馬來西亞和非洲其它國家，比如南非，人們也說英語。目前在中國 學習英語 的人數正在迅速增長。事實上，中國可能擁有世界上最多的 英語學習 者。中國英語會發展出自己的特色嗎?這只能由時間來回答了。 Using Language 標准英語和方言 什麼是標准英語?是在英國、美國、加拿大、澳大利亞、印度、紐西蘭所說的英語嗎?信不信由你，(世界上)沒有什麼標准英語。許多人認為，電視和收音機里所說的就是標准英語，這是因為在早期的電台節目里，人們期望新聞播音員所說的英語是最好的英語。然而，在電視和收音機里，你也會聽出人們在說話時的差異。 當人們用不同於「標准語言」的詞語時，那就叫做方言。美國英語有許多方言，特別是中西部和南部地區的方言，以及黑人和西班牙人的方言。在美國有些地區，即使是相鄰城鎮的兩個人所說的語言都可能稍有不同。美國英語之所以有這么多的方言是因為美國人是來自世界各地的緣故。 地理位置對方言的產生也有影響。住在美國東部山區的一些人說著比較古老的英語方言。當美國人從一個地方搬到另一個地方時，他們也就把他們的方言隨著帶去了。因此，美國東南部山區的人同美國西北部的人所說的方言就幾乎相同。美國是一個使用多種方言的大國。雖然許多美國人經常搬遷，但是他們仍然能夠辨別、理解彼此的方言。

Journey Down the Mekong My name is Wang Kun. Ever since middle school, my sister Wang Wei and I have dreamed about taking a great bike trip. Two years ago she bought an expensive mountain bike and then she persuaded me to buy one. Last year, she visited our cousins, Dao Wei and Yu Hang at their college if Kunming. They are Dai and grew up in western Yunnan Province near the Lancang River, the Chinese part of the river that is called the Mekong River in other countries. Wang Wei soon got time interested in cycling too. After graating from college, we finally got the chance to take a bike trip. I asked my sister, 「Where are we going?」 It was my sister who first had the idea to cycle along the entire Mekong River from where it begins to where it ends. Now she is planning our schele for the trip. I am fond of my sister but she has one serious shortcoming. She can be really stubborn. Although she didn』t know the best way of getting to places, she insisted that she organize the trip properly. Now I know that the proper way is always her way. I kept asking her, 「When are we leaving and when are we coming back?」 I asked her whether she had looked at a map yet. Of course she hadn』t; my sister doesn』t care about details. So I told her that the source of the Mekong is in Qinghai Province. She gave me a determined look -- the kind that said she would not change her mind. When I told her that our journey would begin at an altitude of more than 5,000 meters, she seemed to be excited about it. When I told her the air would be hard to breathe and it would be very cold, she said it would be an interesting experience. I know my sister well. Once she has made up her mind, nothing can change it. Finally, I had to give in. Several months before our trip, Wang Wei and I went to the library. We found a large atlas with good maps that showed details of world geography. From the atlas we could see that the Mekong River begins in a glacier to move quickly. It becomes rapids as it passes through deep valleys, traveling across western Yunnan Province. Sometimes the river becomes a water fall and enters wide valleys. We were both surprised to learn that half of the river is in China. After it leaves China and high altitude, the Mekong becomes wide, brown and warm. As it enters Southeast Asia, its pace slows. It makes wide bends or meanders through low valleys to the plains where rice grows. At last, the river delta enters the South China Sea.
沿湄公河而下的旅程 第一部分夢想與計劃 我的名字叫王坤。從高中起，我姐姐王薇和我就一直夢想作一次偉大的自行車旅行。兩年前，她買了一輛昂貴的山地自行車，然後還說服我買了一輛(山地車)。去年她去看望了我們的表兄弟——在昆明讀大學的刀衛和宇航。他們是傣族人，在雲南省西部靠近瀾滄江的地方長大，湄公河在中國境內的這一段叫瀾滄江，在其他國家(境內)叫湄公河。很快，王薇使表兄弟也對騎車旅遊產生了興趣。大學 畢業 以後，我們終於有了機會騎自行車旅行。我問我姐姐：「我們要去哪兒?」首先想到要沿湄公河從源頭到終點騎車旅遊的是我的姐姐。現在她正在為我們的旅行制定計劃。 我很喜歡我姐姐，但是她有一個很嚴重的缺點。她有時確實很固執。盡管她對去某些地方的最佳路線並不清楚，她卻堅持要自己把這次旅遊安排得盡善盡美。於是，我就知道這個盡善盡美的方式總是她的方式。我不停地問她，「我們什麼時候出發?什麼時候回來?」我還問她是否看過地圖。當然她並沒有看過——我的姐姐是不會考慮細節的。於是，我告訴她，湄公河的源頭在青海省。她給了我一個堅定的眼神——這種眼神表明她是不會改變主意的。我說，我們的旅行將從5, 000多米的高地出發，這時她似乎顯得很興奮。當我告訴她那裡空氣稀薄，呼吸困難，而且天氣很冷時，她卻說這將是一次有趣的經歷。我非常了解我的姐姐，她一旦下了決心，什麼也不能使她改變。最後，我只好讓步了。 在我們旅行前的幾個月，王薇和我去了圖書館。我們找到一本大型地圖冊，裡面有一些世界地理的明細圖。我們從圖上可以看到，湄公河發源於西藏一座山上的冰川。起初，江面很小，河水清澈而冷冽，然後它開始快速流動。它穿過深谷時就變成了急流，流經雲南西部。有時，這條江形成瀑布，進入寬闊的峽谷。我們倆驚奇地發現這條河有一半是在中國境內。當流出中國，流出高地之後，湄公河就變寬了，變暖了，河水也變成了黃褐色。而當它進入東南亞以後，流速減緩，河水蜿蜒緩慢地穿過低谷，流向生長稻穀的平原。最後，湄公河三角洲的各支流流入中國南海。 Using Language 夜晚的西藏山景 第二部分山中一宿 雖然是秋天，但是西藏已經開始下雪了。我們的腿又沉又冷，感覺就像大冰塊。你看到過雪人騎自行車嗎?我們看上去就像那樣。一路上，一些身著羊毛大衣的孩子們停下來看著我們。下午晚些時候，我們發現由於天冷我們的水壺都凍上了。然而，湖水在落日的余暉下閃亮如鏡，景色迷人。像往常一樣，王薇在我的前面，她很可靠，我知道我用不著給她鼓勁兒。上山很艱難，但是當我們環顧四周，(眼前的)景色讓我們感到驚奇，我們似乎能看到幾百里以外的地方。在某個時刻，我們發現自己置身高處，彷佛騎車穿越雲層。然後我們開始下山，這非常有趣，特別是天氣逐漸變得暖和多了。在山谷里，五彩斑斕的蝴蝶翩翩飛舞在我們身旁，我們還看到氂牛和羊群在吃草。這時，我們不得不把帽子、外衣、手套和長褲脫掉，換成T恤衫和短褲。 一到傍晚，我們通常就停下來宿營，(於是)，我們先把帳篷支起來，然後吃飯。晚飯後，王薇把頭放在枕頭上就睡覺了，而我卻醒著。半夜裡，天空變得清朗了，星星更亮了。(夜晚)非常安靜——幾乎沒有風，只有篝火的火焰和我們做伴。當我躺在星空下，我想著我們已經走了多遠。 我們很快就要到達雲南的大理。在那裡，我們的表兄弟刀衛和宇航將加入我們的行列。我們迫不及待地想要見到他們。

Hello!
Our neighbour's son was getting married at an out-of-town church, and my husband and I were invited.
我們鄰居的孩子將在一座外地的教堂舉行婚禮，我和丈夫都受邀前往。
We immediately rushed out to a store, and I bought a nice pink dress with a jacket.
我們立馬沖向了一家商店，我買了一件好看的粉色裙子和一件夾克衫。
The dress was a little tight, but I had a month to go before the June 30 wedding and I would lose a few pounds.
那裙子稍有點緊，但我還有一個月才要去參加那6月30號的婚禮，（因此）我只要減肥減掉幾磅就行了。
June 29 came and, of course, I hadn't lost a single pound; in fact I had gained two.
6月30號到了，當然，我一磅也沒減掉；事實上我還長了兩磅。
But I figured a nice new girdle (緊身內衣) would cure everything.
但我估計一件好的新近身內衣就能解決一切。
附： figure n. 圖形, 形狀, 數字
v. 描繪, 演算, 表示; 出現, 出名, 估計
這里figure 作動詞「估計」之意
So on our way out of the city we stopped once again at the store.
所以，在我們去城外（參加婚禮）的路上，我們再次停在路邊的商店。
I ran in and told the clerk I needed a large-size girdle.
我跑進去並告訴店員我需要一件大好的緊身內衣。
The shop assistant found the box with the described girdle marked "LG", and asked if I would like to try it on.
店員找到了那個上面印有「LG」的盒子並詢問我是否願意試穿。
「Oh, no, a large will fit just right. I needn't try it on.」
「哦，不，大號肯定可以了。我沒必要再試了」
The next morning was rather hot, so I waited to get dressed until about 45 minutes before time to go.
第二天上午非常熱，所以直到要走的時間前45分鍾我才去穿那緊身內衣。
附：rather adv. 相當, 有點兒, 頗; 倒不如; 寧可, 寧願; 而不是

I opened the box only to find a new girdle in a small size.
我打開那盒子卻發現裡面是件小號的緊身內衣
Since it was too late to find another one and the dress wouldn't fit right without a girdle, a fight broke out in the hotel room between me and the girdle.
因為已經沒時間去再找另一件並且不穿緊身內衣我就沒法穿那裙子，於是，一場我和緊身內衣間的戰斗在賓館房間內爆發了。（擬人說法，增加搞笑性）
Have you ever tried to shake 20 pounds of potatoes into a five-pound bag?
你曾嘗試過把20磅的馬鈴薯塞進一個只能裝5磅東西的包里嗎？
That's it.
那就是它了。（即「我」強行要穿上緊身內衣）
Finally my husband, laughing like crazy, got hold of each side and shook me down into it.
最終，我的丈夫笑地像瘋了一般，抓住「緊身內衣」的兩邊把我搖進去了。
At once I put on the pink dress, which didn't match my red face well, and was ready to go.
當我把那件與我已經憋紅的臉一點也不相配的粉色裙子穿上時，我們准備好出發 。
Finally we got to the church.
最終我們到了教堂。
I heard one of the people say that they were having a High Mass.
我聽一個人說人們正在做大彌撒
附High Mass 大彌撒
I turned to my husband and asked, "What is a High Mass?" He shrugged his shoulders.
我轉向我丈夫問到「啥是大彌撒？」他聳了聳肩。
Unfortunately, I learned that this particular mass would last one hour, twenty-two minutes and eight and one half seconds—the priest (神父) was going to bless everything except my girdle.
不幸的是，我終於知道這大彌撒持續了1小時22分鍾8秒半--神父會為所有除我緊身內衣外的東西祝福。
希望能幫到你 （不好意思，剛才沒看完）
E. 急求！高中英語課文原文，在線等
n August 1996, Peter Hessler, a young American teacher of English, arrived in the town of Fuling on the Yangtze River. He and a colleague were to spend two years there teaching English at a teacher training college. They were the only foreigners in the town. The first semester finished at the end of January and they had four weeks off for the Spring Festival. They could go anywhere they wished. They decided to take a boat downstream. We decided to buy tickets for the Jiangyou boat. 我們打算買到「江油號」的船票。 Our colleagues said, 「You shouldn』t go on those ships. They are very crowded. They are mainly for goods and people trading along the river. 同事們說：「你們不要坐那種船。它們太擁擠，主要是用來運貨的。乘客多事沿江做生意的人。 They don』t stop at the temples and there won』t be any other foreigners.」 That sounded fine to me. 那些船不停靠廟宇，也不會有別的外國遊人乘坐。」我覺得聽起來還不錯。 We just had to show our passports and they let us get on the boat.我們出示護照後邊上了船。 We left the docks on a beautiful afternoon. The sun was shining brightly as we sailed downstream through a hilly region. 在一個美麗的午後，我們離開碼頭。當我們順流而下穿過山區的時候，陽光很燦爛。 Men rode bamboo rafts along the river』s edge and coal boats went past. 男人們乘坐著江邊的竹筏，運煤的小船來來往往。 As the sun set we docked at Feng. We could see the sun setting behind the white pagoda. It was beautiful. 太陽落山時，我們的船在豐都靠岸。我們目睹太陽在白塔後西沉，美麗極了。 We slept through the first gorge, which is called the Qutang Gorge. 穿過長江第一峽——翟塘峽時，我們正在睡夢中。 The gorge narrows to 350 feet as the river rushes through the tow-mile-high mountains. 江水在兩英里高峰巒間奔流，峽谷狹窄處只有350英尺。 「Oh, well,」 my friend said, 「at least we have two more left.」 我朋友說；「至少我們還能看見另外兩個峽谷」。 At Wushan we made a detour up the Daning River to see some of the smaller gorges. 船到巫山時，我們繞道溯游大寧河，觀賞了幾處小峽谷。 The next day we went through the ig gorges on the Yangtze River. It was a lovely morning as we went through the Wu Gorge. 第二天，我們經過了長江的大峽谷。在一個美麗的上午輪船駛過巫峽。 We passed the Xiang River, home of Qu Yuan, the 3rd century BC poet. There was so much history long the Yangtze River. 我們還經過了湘江，那是公元前三世紀一位詩人——屈原的家鄉。 Every rock looked like a person or animal, every stream that joined the great river carried its legends, every hill was heavy with the past. 長江有太多的歷史。塊塊巨石形象各異，條條支流都流淌著傳說，座座小山承載著過往。 As we came out of the third gorge, the Xiling Gorge, we sailed into the construction site of the dam. 穿過長江三峽+西陵峽後，輪船駛入大壩建設處的江面。 All the passengers came on deck. We took pictures and pointed at the site, but we weren』t allowed to get off the boat. 所有乘客都上了甲板，大家拍照片，對著工地指指點點，但不可以下船。 The Chinese flag was blowing in the wind. On a distant mountain was a sign in 20-foot characters. 「Build the Three Gorges Dam, Exploit the Yangtze River,」 it said.
F. 急求 高中英語必修五 the steamboat 課文原文 要原文不要翻譯！！！
There was a big storm after midnight and the
rain poured down. We stayed inside the shelter
we had built and let the raft sail down the river.
Suddenly, by the light of the lightning, we saw
something in the middle of the river. It looked
like a house at first, but then we realized it
was a steamboat. It had hit a rock and was half
in and half out of the water. We were sailing
straight towards it.
"It looks as if it'll go under soon," Jim said,
after a couple of minutes.
"Let's go and take a look," I said.
"I don't want to board a sinking ship," said
Jim, but when I suggested that we might find
something useful on the boat, he agreed to go.
So we paddled over and climbed on to the
steamboat, keeping as quiet as mice. To our
astonishment, there was a light in one of the
cabins. Then we heard someone shout, "Oh
please boys, don't kill me! I won't tell anybody!"
A man's angry voice answered, "You're lying.
You said that last time. We're going to kill you."
When he heard these words, Jim panicked and
ran to the raft. But although I was frightened,
I also felt very curious, so I put my head round
the door. it was quite dark, but I could see a
man lying on the floor, tied up with rope. There
were two men standing over him. One was
short, with a beard. The other was tall and had
something in his hand that looked like a gun.
'I've had enough of you. I'm going to shoot
you now," this man said. He was obviously the
one who had threatened the man on
the floor. And it was a gun he had
in his hand.
"No, don't do that," said the short
man. "Let's leave him here. The
steamboat will sink in a couple of
hours and he'll go down with it."
When he heard that, the frightened
man on the floor started crying. "He
sounds as if he's going to die of fright!"
I thought. "I have to find a way to
save him!"
I crawled along the deck, foundJim,
and told him what I had heard. "We
must find their boat and take it away,
then they'll have to stay here," I said.
Jim looked terrified. "I'm not staying
here," he said. But I persuaded him
to help me, and we found the men's
boat tied to the other side of the
steamboat. We climbed quietly in
and as we paddled away we heard
the two men shouting. By then we
were a safe distance away. But now
I began to feel bad about what we
had done. I didn't want all three men
to die.

Unit1 ANNE』S BEST FRIEND
Anne』s Best Friend Do you want a friend whom you could tell everything to, like your deepest feelings and thoughts? Or are you afraid that your friend would laugh at you, or would not understand what you are going through? Anne Frank wanted the first kind, so she made her diary her best friend. Anne lived in Amsterdam in the Netherlands ring World War Ⅱ. Her family was Jewish so nearly twenty-five months before they were discovered. During that time the only true friend was her diary. She said, 」I don』t want to set down a series of facts in a diary as most people do, but I want this diary itself to be my friend, and I shall call my friend Kitty.」 Now read how she felt after being in the hiding place since July 1942. Thursday 15th June, 1944 Dear Kitty, I wonder if it』s because I haven』t been able to be outdoors for so long that I』ve grown so crazy about everything to do with nature. I can well remember that there was a time when a deep blue sky, the song of the birds, moonlight and flowers could never have kept me spellbound. That』s changed since I was here. …For example, one evening when it was so warm, I stayed awake on purpose until half past eleven in order to have a good look at the moon by my self. But as the moon gave far too much light, I didn』t dare open a window. Another time five months ago, I happened to be upstairs at sk when the window was open. I didn』t go downstairs until the window bad to be shut. The dark, rainy evening, the wind, the thundering clouds held me entirely in their power; it was the first time in a year and a half that I』d seen the night face to face… …Sadly …I am only able to look at nature through dirty curtains hanging before very sty windows. It』s no pleasure looking through these any longer because nature is one thing that really must be experienced. Yours, Anne
Unit2 THE ROAD TO MODERN ENGLISH
the Road to Modern English At the end of the 16th century, about five to seven million people spoke English. Nearly all of them lived in England. Later in the next century, people from England made voyages to conquer other parts of the world, and because of that, English began to be spoken in many other countries. Today, more people speak English as their first, second or a foreign language than ever before. Native English speakers can understand each other even if they don』t speak the same kind of English. Look at this example: British Betty: Would you like to see my flat? American Amy: Yes. I』d like to come up to you apartment. So why has English changed over time? Actually all languages change and develop when cultures meet and communicate with each other. At fist the English spoken in England between about AD 450 and 1150 was very different from the English spoken today. It was base more on German than the English we speak at present. Then graally between about AD 500 and 1150, English became less like German because those who ruled England spoke first Danish and later French. These new settlers enriched the English language and especially its vocabulary. So by the 1600』s Shakespeare was able to make use of a wider vocabulary than ever before. In 1620 some British settlers moved to America. Later in the 18th century some British people were taken to Australia to. English began to be spoken in both countries. Finally by the 19th century the language was settled. At that time two big changes in English spelling happened: first Samuel Johnson wrote his dictionary and later Noah Webster wrote The American Dictionary of the English language. The latter gave a separate identity to American English spelling. English now is also spoken as a foreign or second language in South Asia. For example, India has a very large number of fluent English speakers because Britain ruled India from 1765 to 1947. During that time English became the language for government and ecation. English is also spoken in Singapore and Malaysia and countries in Africa such as South Africa. Today the number of people learning English in China is increasing rapidly. In fact, China may have the largest number of English learners. Will Chinese English develop its own identity? Only time will tell.
Unit3 Travel journal
Journey Down the Mekong My name is Wang Kun. Ever since middle school, my sister Wang Wei and I have dreamed about taking a great bike trip. Two years ago she bought an expensive mountain bike and then she persuaded me to buy one. Last year, she visited our cousins, Dao Wei and Yu Hang at their college if Kunming. They are Dai and grew up in western Yunnan Province near the Lancang River, the Chinese part of the river that is called the Mekong River in other countries. Wang Wei soon got time interested in cycling too. After graating from college, we finally got the chance to take a bike trip. I asked my sister, 「Where are we going?」 It was my sister who first had the idea to cycle along the entire Mekong River from where it begins to where it ends. Now she is planning our schele for the trip. I am fond of my sister but she has one serious shortcoming. She can be really stubborn. Although she didn』t know the best way of getting to places, she insisted that she organize the trip properly. Now I know that the proper way is always her way. I kept asking her, 「When are we leaving and when are we coming back?」 I asked her whether she had looked at a map yet. Of course she hadn』t; my sister doesn』t care about details. So I told her that the source of the Mekong is in Qinghai Province. She gave me a determined look -- the kind that said she would not change her mind. When I told her that our journey would begin at an altitude of more than 5,000 meters, she seemed to be excited about it. When I told her the air would be hard to breathe and it would be very cold, she said it would be an interesting experience. I know my sister well. Once she has made up her mind, nothing can change it. Finally, I had to give in. Several months before our trip, Wang Wei and I went to the library. We found a large atlas with good maps that showed details of world geography. From the atlas we could see that the Mekong River begins in a glacier to move quickly. It becomes rapids as it passes through deep valleys, traveling across western Yunnan Province. Sometimes the river becomes a water fall and enters wide valleys. We were both surprised to learn that half of the river is in China. After it leaves China and high altitude, the Mekong becomes wide, brown and warm. As it enters Southeast Asia, its pace slows. It makes wide bends or meanders through low valleys to the plains where rice grows. At last, the river delta enters the South China Sea.
Unit4 ANIGHTTHEEARTHDIDN'TSLEEP
Strange things were happening in the countryside of northeast Hebei.For three days the water in the village wells rose and fell,rose and fell.Farmers noticed that the well walls had deep cracks in them.A smelly gas came out of the cracks.In the farmyards,the chickens and even the pigs were too nervois to eat.Mice ran out of the fields looking for places to hide.Fish jumped out of their bowls and ponds.At about 3:00 am on july 28,1976,some people saw bright lights in the sky.The sound of planes could be heard outside the city of Tangshan even when no planes were in the sky.In the city,the water pipes in some buildings cracked and burst.but the one million people of the city,who thiught little of these events,were asleep as usual that night.
At 3:42 am everything began to shake.It seemed as if the world was at an end!Eleven kilometres directly below the city the greatest earthquake of the 20th century had begun.It was felt in Beijing,which is more than two hundred kilometres away.One-third of the nation felt it.A huge crack that was eight kilometres long and thirty metres wide cut across houses,roads and canals.Steam burst from holes in the ground.Hard hills of rock became rivers of dir.In fifteen terrible seconds a large city lay in ruins.The suffering of the people was extreme.Two-thirds of them died or were left without parents.The number of people who were killed or injured reached more than 400,000.
But how could the survivors believe it was natural?Everywhere they looked nearly everything was destroyed.All of the city's hospitals,75%of its factories and buildings and 90% of its homes were gone.Bricks covered the ground like red autumn leaves.No wind,however,could blow them away.Two dams fell and most of the bridges also fell or were not safe for travelling.The railway tracks were now useless pieces of steel.Tens of thousands of cows would never give milk again.Half a million oigs and millions of chickens were dead.Sand now filled the wells instead of water.People were shocked.Then,later that afternoon,another big quake which was almost as strong as the first one shook Tangshan.Some of the rescue workers and doctors were trapped under the ruins.More buildings fell down.Water,food,and electricity were hard to get.people begab to wonder how long the disaster would last.

Unit5 ELIAS'STORY
My name is Elias. I am a poor black worker in South Africa. The time when I first met Nelson Mandela was a very difficult period of my life. I was twelve years old. It was in 1952 and Mandela was the black lawyer to whom I went for advice. He offered guidance to poor black people on their legal problems. He was generous with his time, for which I was grateful.
I needed his help because I had very little ecation. I began school at six. The school where I studied for only two years was three kilometers away. I had to leave because my family could not continue to pay the school fees and the bus fare. I could not read or write well. After trying hard, I got a job in a gold mine. However, this was a time when one had got to have a passbook to live in Johannesburg. Sadly I did not have it because I was not born there, and I worried about whether I would become out of work.
The day when Nelson Mandela helped me was one of my happiest. He told my how to get the correct papers so I could stay in Johannesburg. I became more hopeful about my future. I never forgot how kind Mandela was. When he organized the ANC Youth League, I joined it as soon as I could. He said:
「The last thirty years have seen the greatest number of laws stopping our rights and progress, until today we have reached a stage where we have almost no rights at all.」
It was the truth. Black people could not vote or choose their leaders. They could not get the jobs they wanted. The parts of town in which they had to live were decided by white people. The places outside the towns where they were sent to live were the poorest parts of South Africa. No one could grow food there. In fact as Nelson Mandela said:
「…we were put into a position in which we had either to accept we were less important or fight the government. We chose to attack the laws. We first broke the law in a way which was peaceful; when this was not allowed…only then did we decide to answer violence with violence.
As a matter of fact, I do not like violence…but in 1963 I helped him blow up some government buildings. It was very dangerous because if I was caught I could be put in prison. But I was happy to help because I knew it would help us achieve our dream of making black and white people equal.

外研版高中英語必修6 羅伊的故事課文原文
Roy's Story
I remember the first time I met Roy. He was standingin the centre of a group of boys, and he was telling a joke. When he reachedthe final line, everyone burst out laughing. Roy laughed too, a loud happy laugh."Popular boy," I thought to myself. My name is Daniel. I was the newboy in the class. Our family was from the north of England, but my father hadbeen offered a better job in London, and our whole family had moved there. Iwas twelve and, having lost all my old friends, I felt shy and lonely at my newschool.
There were 33 students in my new class, and mostpeople weren't very interested in a shy new boy. Roy was one of the few peoplewho was kind to me. He often invited me to join his particular group, and as aresult, I started getting to know people. Roy and I became good friends. Wetrusted each other and we could talk about personal matters, things that wereimportant to us.
Five years later, Roy and I are still in the sameclass. But just under a year ago, Roy's father was knocked over by a car. He died afew days later. The family had to move to a much smaller house in order tomanage financially. Roy, who had always been very close to his father, changed completely, becoming silentand moody. He had always been a clever, hard-working studentbut now he seemed to lose all interest in his work. He started losing friends.These days, Roy and I see each other from time to time, but we're no longer close.
About three months ago, a group of us were playingfootball together after school. Having left something in the cloakroom, I went inside to get it, and found Roy goingthrough the pockets of people's coats. In his hand he had a wallet—and I knewit wasn't his! My mouth fell open and I just looked at him. Roy went bright red."I'll put it back right now," he said, and he did so. I turned roundand walked out without saying a word.
I really hoped that Roy would explain why he hadbeen stealing, but instead he started avoiding me. At the same time, smallamounts of money started disappearing from students' lockers. I wondered if the thief was Roy but decided not tosay anything to anyone. I hoped it wasn't him.
Last week our school had a big fair in order to raise money for a charity. It was very successful and by theend of the day, we had made about £500. Our class teacher, Mr White, came andchatted to a group of us that included Roy, and held up a box for us to see."There's £500 in here," he said with a smile. But to our surprise,the next morning, we were told that the money had been stolen. Mr White hadleft the box in a classroom for a few minutes, and when he came back it haddisappeared. The head teacher asked anyone who thought they might knowsomething about the theft to come to him.
This weekend, having thought about the situation fora while, I decided to ask Roy about the theft, and this morning I went to see him. Roy was out,and I went upstairs to his bedroom to wait for him. It was a cold day and hisjacket was lying on the back of a chair. I put it on and put my hands in thepockets. I could feel a lot of paper notes and I pulled them out.
It looked as if there was about £500 there. I was sosurprised that I just stood there, holding the notes in my hands. At thatmoment, the door swung open, and Roy walked in.

河北省東北部的農村不斷有些怪事發生。三天來，村子裡的井水升升降降，起起伏伏，農民注意到，水井的井壁上有深深的裂縫，裂縫里冒著臭氣，農家大院里的雞設置豬也緊張到不想吃食，老鼠從田地里跑出來找地方藏身，魚缸和池塘里的魚會往外跳，在1976年七月28日凌晨3點左右。有些人看到天上有一道道明亮的光，即使沒有飛機飛過。在唐山城外也可以聽到飛機聲。在市內。有些建築物的水管爆開來，但是。唐山市的一百萬居民幾乎都沒有把這些情況當一回事。當晚照常的睡了。
在凌晨3點42分。一切開始搖晃起來了。世界似乎到了末日。二十世紀最大的地震就在唐山市正下方11公里處發生了。100公里外的北京市都感到了震感。全國三分之一的地方都有震感。一條8公里的長，30米寬的巨大裂縫橫穿房舍。馬路和渠道。地上一些洞穴冒出了蒸汽。石頭山變成了泥沙河，在可怕的十五秒內一座大城市就沉淪在一片廢墟之中。人們遭受的災難極為嚴重。2/3的人在地震中死亡或受傷。成千上萬個家庭遇難。許多小孩變成了孤兒。死傷人數到達了40多萬。倖存的人怎麼能相信這個是自然現象。人們無論朝哪裡看，那裡的一切幾乎都被毀了。所有市內的醫院，75%的工廠和建築物，90%的家園都消失了。殘磚就像秋天的紅葉覆蓋著大地。然而他們不可能被風吹走，兩座大壩跨了。多數橋梁不是塌了就是無法完全通行了。鐵軌如今變成了一條條廢鋼。好幾萬頭牛再也擠不出奶來了。50萬頭豬和幾百萬頭雞全都死了。井裡滿是撒子而不是水 ，人們驚呆了，接著，在下午的晚些時候，又一次和第一次一樣強烈的地震震撼著唐山，有些醫生和救援人人員被困在廢墟下面，更多發房屋倒塌了，水電和食物都很難弄到，人們開始納悶這場災難還會持續多久，不是所有的希望都破滅了，地震後不久，部隊派了15萬名戰士到唐山來協助救援人員，數十萬人得到了幫助，部分人員組成了小分隊，將受困的人們挖出來，將死者掩埋，在唐山市的北邊，有一個煤礦，其中萬名礦工得救了，救援人員為那些家園被毀的倖存者蓋起了避難所。用火車，卡車，和飛機向市內運來了水，慢慢地，這座城市又開始出現了生機
