　　话题链接：You will remember that the Bank of England once issued two notes of a million pounds each, to be used for a special purpose connected with some public transaction with a foreign country．For some reason or other only one of these had been used and canceled; The other still lay in the vaults of the Bank．Well, the brothers, chatting along, happened to get to wondering what might be the fate of a perfectly honest and intelligent stranger who should be turned adrift in London without a friend, and with no money but that million-pound bank-note, and no way to account for his being in possession of it．Brother A said he would starve to death; Brother B said he wouldn't．Brother A said he couldn't offer it at a bank or anywhere else, because he would be arrested on the spot．So they went on disputing till Brother B said he would bet twenty thousand pounds that the man would live thirty days, anyway, on that million, and keep out of jail, too．Brother A took him up．Brother B went down to the Bank and bought that note．Just like an Englishman, you see; pluck to the backbone．Then he dictated a letter, which one of his clerks wrote out in a beautiful round hand, and then the two brothers sat at the window a whole day watching for the right man to give it to…．

　　他们物色了一个年轻人做试验。带着这张毫无使用价值的百万英镑钞票，年轻人经历如在梦中。年轻人得到了他想得到的，包括爱情和受人尊敬。他爱上的女孩正是兄弟B的女儿Portia，但是这个年轻人会过上幸福生活吗？

任务导入：Imagine what kind of life Henry will live with Portia and try to make up a short play between them．Then act it out before your classmates．

You can do it as the following steps：

1．Before write your play, read the novel of The Million Pound Bank-Note to get some background knowledge and refer to some play scripts to learn how to write a play; 2．Choose the right persons to be the roles of the play and learn some skills of performance from books or experts, etc．

3．Practice the play together and act it out before your classmates．

An example scene：

P＝Portia　H＝Henry

P：Oh, Henry．It's nice to see you home so early!

H：Mm, ah．

P：(looking worried)What's happened?

H：I can't hide much from you, can I, dear?We have lost our money．The railway company in Brazil has collapsed and all our money has disappeared．But I have a plan to help us．We can go back to America and start again．I can become a gold miner and we can make our fortune that way．

P：Leave London?Leave my father?Oh no, Henry, please!

H：I think it might be better for us．We would stand on our own feet．

P：(crying)I shall have to go home．You can't love me if you want to do this dreadful thing．

H：(putting his arms round her)Of course I do．It is for our sake that I suggest this．It will be an adventure．We will be able to travel where we like and I will be able to show you so many lovely places．

P：As long as you love me I shall be happy．

H：And I shall always do that!

　　On Tuesday, 12th March 1996, my mum and I went to see my school headmaster．He was called Mr Lowe．In his office we saw Mrs Hick, the teacher from the local country council who was to help me with my English．She was very friendly and smiled a lot, not like Chinese teachers, who are very serious．Mr Lowe talked to us a lot but I didn’t understand what he said at all．(Mum told me later that it was a brief introduction about the school．)Then he gave us a copy of school handbook and took us on a tour around the school．He showed us to the dining hall, where the students have their lunch, the playground, and to my class as well．He also introduced me to my teacher, Miss Brocklebank．They arranged for me to go into a Year 3 class according to my age, as British children begin their first year at 5．They told me to come to school the next day．

　　Just then I was about to leave, a boy called to me：“Henry!” Mr Lowe was very surprised and asked him how he knew me．The boy said, “We played football together．” Mr Lowe asked him, “Look after Henry, will you?” He nodded．

以下是对这些书的描述。请将这些描述与书籍的图片及相应简介匹配起来。

1.According to Jon Ronson, the writer of the book, psychopaths are very charming, smart, easily bored and cruel. In the book, Ronson takes readers into the fascinating world of psychopaths by speaking to the experts and having amusing conversations with the psychopaths themselves.

2.This book is about a deeply funny story, as well as a deeply sad story—the great Nineties moment when a bunch of punk rock bands from Seattle accidentally blew up into the world’s biggest noise. The author gives the unique chronicle of how it all happened, and how it ended too soon. The book also makes readers appreciate how strange it was.

3.This is just one of the terrifying everyday tales of the body trade documented. It started out extremely well, with some fascinating stories about the trade in human body parts. It covers many different aspects of the “red market”, ranging from skeletons to blood, and even the giant business of collecting and selling human hair.

4.It’s been reported that the author has often attracted as much attention as his cars. The book is partly a biography covering a very short portion of the author’s own life—his second stint at General Motor（GM）—which recently ended after about a decade. However, it’s more than a biography. It is also a view on what went wrong with the US car industry and US industry in general.

5.This is a great book for anyone who has an interest in science, or wants to see advances in medicine at greater rates that we’ve seen them so far. If a reader has teenagers with interests in science, he should have them read this book. It will inspire them to broaden their horizons beyond the typical research lab.
