摘要: W: I dream of going to Asia someday. M: Where have you been? W: France and Australia. 6-7 W: Tell me, Jack. Do you look through the Web much? M: Well, to tell you the truth, I’m so busy with work. I don’t really have much time to surf the Web. Let me think-I suppose I surf the web a couple of times a week, for about two or three hours. W: So, what do you do on the Internet when you surf the web? M: Well, I do a little E-mailing. I only get about two or three E-mails a week. Actually I prefer writing real letters, with pen and paper. W: Yeah, I’m the same way. Anything else you do on the Internet? M: Well, sometimes I look up information I need for my job. It saves much more time than looking through books in libraries. W: Yes, it sure does. 8-10 M: It’s a beautiful day, isn’t it? W: Yes, nice and sunny. M: It’s much better than last week. It was too warm then. W: Summer is over. I like autumn best. M: So do I. It’s neither too hot nor too cold. The sky is clear and blue. W: It’s a good time to have a picnic. Do you want to have one this weekend. M: I’d love to, but I think it’s going to rain. The weatherman said it will rain. W: I don’t think he’s right. It hasn’t rained for a week. M: But he is usually right in his weather news. W: I’m sure we’ll have fine weather for our picnic. 11-13 W: I met Betty on the street. M: What is she doing these days? W: She has just got back with John from a trip to Mexico. M: They did? So what did she say about the trip? W; Oh, they had a lovely time. She said we’d really enjoy it if we were there too. M: Did you ask how the weather was? W: It seems it was rather cool in Mexico City, but nice and warm along the coast. M: Did she say where she stayed? W: She told me, but I don’t remember. M: Well, did she say the hotels were crowded? W: Yes, she said they were. They always are at this time of year. So she suggests we make our plans as soon as possible. M: Well, we’d better do some checking. Do you still have that guide book? W: Yes, here it is. 14-16 W: I started to dream seriously about being a singer when I was five years old. I did my first show when I was five years old in my brother’s wedding. After my singing, everybody started to clap their hands. And I thought, “What a wonderful life! I wanted that. M: How did you meet Rene? W: Actually he says he discovered me, but it’s not true. I discovered him. What happened is he was a manager; he was a singer himself many years ago in Montreal. My parents at the time had a little piano bar. And on weekends, while people were drinking, I was singing. My mom sent the tape to Rene. We waited and he called to say he was very interested in meeting me. I was 12. M: And he was 26 years old, right? W: Exactly. And I went with my mom to his office. And he said, “Could you sing in front of me? And I started to sing and then I looked at him, he had tears in his eyes. 17-20 Most people buy a lot of gifts just before Christmas, but some people think we buy too much. They have started a special day called “Buy Nothing Day . They don’t want anyone to go shopping on that day. “Buy Nothing Day is November 29. It’s after Thanksgiving Day and often the first day of Christmas shopping. The idea of “Buy Nothing Day started in Vancouver, a Canadian city. Now people all over the world celebrate “Buy Nothing Day . In California, parents and children get together to read stories, sing songs, and paint pictures. This year, in Manchester, England, people dressed up to tell people that we buy too much. In Albuquerque, New Mexico, high school students wanted to tell other students about “Buy Nothing Day . They organized a spaghetti dinner to give people information about “Buy Nothing Day . They asked restaurants in the neighborhood to donate the food. The students at the high school like the idea of this new tradition. Next year, they want to have another dinner to tell more people about “Buy Nothing Day .

Each morning a rich man found a poor man sitting on a park bench (长凳). The poor man always sat there, looking at the big hotel in which the rich man lived. One day the rich man got out of his car and said to the poor man, “Excuse me, but I just want to know why you sit here and look at my hotel every morning.” “Sir,” said the poor man, “I am a failure. I have no money, no family, no home. I sleep on this bench, and every night I dream that one day I’ll sleep in that hotel.” The rich man said, “That is not so hard. Tonight your dream will come true.
