Lesson 58 A SPOT OF BOTHER
The old lady was glad to be back at the clock of flats where she lived. Her shopping had tired her and her basket had grown heavier with every step of the way home. In the lift her thoughts were on lunch and a good rest; but when her got out at her own floor, both were forgotten in the sudden discovery that her front door was open. She was thinking that she must reprimand her home help the next morning for such a monstrous piece of negligence, when she remembered that she had gone shopping af-ter the home help had left and she knew that she had turned both keys in their locks. She walk slowly into the hall and at once noticed that all the room doors were open, yet following her regular practice she had shut them before going out. Looking into the drawing room, she saw a scene of confusion over by her writing desk. It was as clear as daylight then that the burglars had forced an entry during her absence. Her first impulse was to have someone with her, so she went to fetch the porter from his basement, While he telephoned the police. Then, her composure regained, she was ready to set off with the porter’s assistance to search for any intruders who might still be lurking in her flat.
They went through the rooms, being careful to touch nothing, as they didn’t want to hinder the police in their searching for fingerprints. The chaos was inconceivable. She had lived in the flat for thirty years and was a veritable magpie at hoarding; and it seemed as though everything she possessed had been tossed out and turned over and over. At least sorting out things she should have discarded years ago was now being made easier for her. Then a police inspector arrived with a constable and she told them of her discovery of the ransacked flat. The inspector began to look for finger-prints, while the constable checked the front door locks had not been forced, thereby proving that the burglars had either used skeleton keys or entered over the balcony. There was no trace of fingerprints, but the inspector found a dirty red bundle that contained jewellery which the old lady said was not hers. So their entry into the flat was apparently not the burglars’first job that day and they must have been disturbed. The inspector then asked the old lady to try to check what was missing by the next day and advised her not to stay alone in the flat for a few nights. The old lady thought he was a fussy creature, but since the porter agreed with him, she rang up her daughter and asked for her help in what she described as a little spot of bother.
Lesson 59 COLLECTING
People tend to amass possessions, sometimes without being aware of doing so. Indeed they can have a delightful surprise when they found something useful which they didn’t know that they owned. Those who never have to move house become indiscri-minate collectors of what can be described as clutter. They left unwanted objects in drawers, cupboards and attics for years in the belief that they may need just those very things. As they grow old, people accumulate belongings for two other reasons, lack of physical and mental energy, both of which are essential in turning out and throwing away, and sentiment. Things owned for a long time are full of association with the past, perhaps with the relatives who are dead, so they gradually acquire a value beyond their real worth.
Some things are collected in the home in an attempt to avoid waste. Among those I would list string and brown paper, kept by thrifty people when a parcel has been opened, to save buying these two requisites. Collecting small items can easily become a mania. I know someone who always cuts sketches out from newspapers of model clothes that she would buy when she have the money. As she is not rich, the chances that she will be able to afford such purchases are remote, but she is never strong-minded to stop the practice. It is a harmless habit, but it litters up her desk to an extent that every time she opens it, little bits of papers fall out in every direction. Collecting as a serious hobby is different and has many advantages. It provides relax-ation for leisure hours, as just looking at one’s treasure is always a joy. Y ou have not to go outside for amusement, since the collection is housed at home. Whatever it co n-sist of, there is always something to do in connection with it, from finding the right place for the latest addition, to verifying facts in reference books. This hobby educates one not only in the chosen subjects, but also in general matters which have some bearing on it. There are also other benefits. One wants to meet like-minded people, to get advice, to compare notes, to exchange articles, to show off the latest find. So one’s circle of friends grows. Soon it leads to travel, perhaps to a meeting in another town, possibly a trip abroad in search of a rare specimen, since collectors are not confined in any one country. Over the years, one may well become an authority on one’s hobby and then will be asked to give informal talks to little gathers, and then, if successful, to large audience. In this way self-confidence grows, first from mastering a subject, then from being able to talk about it. Collecting, by occupying spare time so construc-tively, makes a person contented, with no time for boredom.
LESSION 60 TOO EARLY AND TOO LATE
Punctuality is a necessary habit in all public affairs in civilized society. Without it, nothing can be brought to a conclusion; everything would be in a state of chaos. Only in a sparsely-populated rural community is it possible to disregard it. In ordinary liv-ing, there can be some tolerance of unpunctuality. The intellectual, who is working on some abstruse problems, has everything coordinated and organized for the matter in hand. He will be forgiven if late for a dinner party. But people are often reproached for unpunctuality when their only fault is cutting things fine. It is hard for energetic, quick-minded people to waste time, so they are often tempted to finish a job before setting out to keep an appointment. If no accidents occur on the way, like punctured tyres, diversions of traffic, sudden descent of fog, they will be on time. They are often industrious, useful citizens than those who are never late. The over-punctual can be as much a trial to others as the unpunctual. The guests who arrives half an hour too soon is the greatest nuisance. Some friends of my family have this irritating habit. The only thing to do was ask them to come half an hour later than the other guests. Then they arrived just when we wanted them.
If you are catching a train, it is always better to be comfortably early than even a frac-tion of a minute too late. Although being early may mean wasting a little time, this will be less than if you miss the train and have to wait an hour or more for the next one; and you avoid the frustration of arriving at the very moment when the train is drawing out of the station and being unable to get on it. An even harder situation is to be on the platform in good time for a train and still to see it go off without you. Such a experience befell a certain young girl the first time she was traveling alone.
She entered the station twenty minutes before the train is due, since her parents had impressed upon her that it would be unforgivable to miss is and cause the friends with whom she was going to stay to make two journeys to meet her. She gave her luggage to a porter and showed him her ticket. To her horror he said that she was two hours too soon. She felt her handbag for the piece of paper on which her father had written down all the details of the journey and gave it to the porter. He agreed that a train did come into the station at the time on the paper and that it did stop, but only to take on mail, not passengers. The girl asked to see a timetable, feeling sure that her father could not have made such a mistake. The porter went to fetch one and arrived back with the station master, who produced it with a flourish and pointed out a microscopic ‘o’ beside the time of the arrival of the train at his station; this little ’o’indicated that the train only stopped for mail. Just as that moment the train came into the station. The girls, tears streaming down her face, begged to be allowed to slip into the guard’s van. But the station master was adamant: rules could not be broken. And she had to watch that train disappear towards her destination while she was left behind.

背诵英语课文的方法
背诵英语课文的方法 背英语课文听起来很可怕，每个人似乎都经历过。不过不能否认，背课文是学英语最好的方法之一。特别是对于少年儿童更是如此。背课文是一项虽然艰苦却其乐无穷的学习方式。只要把握的好，就能够使孩子在快乐和成就感中学习。 第一条原则：理解而后能背 对于一篇课文，首要问题是要非常清楚它的意思。只有在这个基础上才能开始努力去背。生吞活剥式的死记硬背是没有效果的。在背之前首先要弄懂文章的中心内容，记叙文要弄清楚记述的事情、人物、时间、地点等等，说明文要明白主要解说的对象和不同方面和性质，而议论文则要弄清所讨论的问题和主要的论点、论据、论证的关系。 要以文章内容为线索进行记忆。要弄懂上下句之间的内容和逻辑上的关系，而后才是语言上的起承转合。这样背课文就是因事而语，有意义地背，言之有物，背之有理。这样的背诵对日后的写作和口语帮助也是最大的。 第二条原则：所背的文章要典型而纯 文章一旦背下就会记住很长时间甚至永远不忘，对今后的学习产生深远影响。所以背要选那些真正典型而纯的文章，以完全正确和有代表性的文章丰富孩子语言资料。 第三条原则：先听后背 对英语课来讲，背课文是练习英语口语行之有效的方法，在背的时候就要特别注意。学语言模仿是关键，所以在背之前要先听，听要听原装正版的录音，当然推荐外籍教师的录音，这样能够学到非常地道的发音。而且要反复听，直到能够模仿得很像为止。这一个阶段是比较枯燥的，但非常有效。 第四条原则：从易到难、从短到长、循序渐进 背课文比较艰苦，特别是一开始，最是要避免产生抵触心理。所以开始的时候哪怕就只是几句话也好，先要建立信心和兴趣。不要贪多，想一口吃个胖子的想法是极端错误的。急不得，慢慢增长，逐渐地熟悉背课文的套路和一些常用的关联词，能够越来越容易。 第五条原则：背课文一天之际在于晨 早晨是练习口语和背课文的黄金时间，要充分利用。每天早起半个小时，大声朗读背诵，不但对英语，对自己的心情和一天的状态都有好处。 第六条原则：注意重点句型和单词

经典英文美文 >01 The Language of Music A painter hangs his or her finished picture on a wall, and everyone can see it. A composer writes a work, but no one can hear it until it is performed. Professional singers and players have great responsibilities, for the composer is utterly dependent on them. A student of music needs as long and as arduous a training to become a performer as a medical student needs to become a doctor. Most training is concerned with technique, for musicians have to have the muscular proficiency of an athlete or a ballet dancer. Singers practice breathing every day, as their vocal chords would be inadequate without controlled muscular support. String players practice moving the fingers of the left hand up and down, while drawing the bow to and fro with the right arm -- two entirely different movements. Singers and instrumentalists have to be able to get every note perfectly in tune. Pianists are spared this particular anxiety, for the notes are already there, waiting for them, and it is the piano tuner's responsibility to tune the instrument for them. But they have their own difficulties: the hammers that hit the strings have to be coaxed not to sound like percussion, and each overlapping tone has to sound clear. This problem of getting clear texture is one that confronts student conductors: they have to learn to know every note of the music and how it should sound, and they have to aim at controlling these sounds with fanatical but selfless authority. Technique is of no use unless it is combined with musical knowledge and understanding. Great artists are those who are so thoroughly at home in the language of music that they can enjoy performing works written in any century. 01 音乐的语言 画家将已完成的作品挂在墙上，每个人都可以观赏到。作曲家写完了一部作品，得由 演奏者将其演奏出来，其他人才能得以欣赏。因为作曲家是如此完全地依赖于职业歌手和职业演奏者，所以职业歌手和职业演奏者肩上的担子可谓不轻。 一名学音乐的学生要想成为一名演奏者，需要经受长期的、严格的训练，就象一名医科的学生要成为一名医生一样。绝大多数的训练是技巧性的。 音乐家们控制肌肉的熟练程度，必须达到与运动员或巴蕾舞演员相当的水平。歌手们每天都练习吊嗓子，因为如果不能有效地控制肌肉的话，他们的声 带将不能满足演唱的要求。弦乐器的演奏者练习的则是在左手的手指上下滑动的同时，用 右手前后拉动琴弓--两个截然不同的动作。歌手和乐器演奏者必须使所有的音符完全相同协调。钢琴家们则不用操这份心，因为每个音符都已在那里等待着他们了。 给钢琴调音是调音师的职责。但调音师们也有他们的难处：他们必须耐心地调理敲击琴弦的音锤，不能让

第一篇：一位伟大的朋友A Great Friend As I am now a senior high school student, I have a great many friends, but there is one whom I prize over all the rest. I first made his acquaintance when I began to go to school. He has been my constant companion ever since. Though he is serious in appearance, he never fails to be interesting. Often he is clever, sometimes even merry and gay. He is the most knowledgeable friend a person could have. He knows virtually every language of the world, all the events of history, and the words of all the great poets and philosophers. A kindly benefactor, he is admired and enjoyed by everyone who makes his acquaintance. To me, he has been a great teacher as well as a friend. He first taught me the secrets of my own language and then those of others. With these keys he showed us how to unlock all the arts and sciences of man. My friend is endlessly patient. Dull though I may be, I can return to him again and again, and he is always ready to teach me. When I am bored, he entertains me. When I am dispirited, he lifts me up. When I am lonely, he keeps me company. He is a friend not only to me but to millions around the world. Shall I tell you his name?
