Lesson 1 A private conversation 私人谈话 Last week I went to the theatre. I had a very good seat. The play was very interesting. I did not enjoy it. A young man and a young woman were sitting behind me. They were talking loudly. I got very angry. I could not hear the actors. I turned round. I looked at the man and the woman angrily. They did not pay any attention. In the end, I could not bear it. I turned round again. ‘I can't hear a word!’I said angrily. ‘It's none of your business, ’the young man said rudely. ‘This is a private conversation!’ Lesson 2 Breakfast or lunch? 早餐还是午餐？ It was Sunday. I never get up early on Sundays. I sometimes stay in bed until lunchtime. Last Sunday I got up very late. I looked out of the window. It was dark outside. ‘What a day!’I thought. ‘It's raining again. ’Just then, the telephone rang. It was my aunt Lucy. ‘I've just arrived by train, ’she said. ‘I'm coming to see you. ’‘But I'm still having breakfast, ’I said. ‘What are you doing?’she asked. ‘I'm having breakfast, ’I repeated. ‘Dear me, ’she said. ‘Do you always get up so late? It's one o'clock!’ Lesson 3 Please send me a card 寄张明信片 Postcards always spoil my holidays. Last summer, I went to Italy. I visited museums and sat in public gardens. A friendly waiter taught me a few words of Italian. Then he lent me a book. I read a few lines, but I did not understand a word. Every day I thought about postcards. My holidays passed quickly, but I did not send cards to my friends. On the last day I made a big decision. I got up early and bought thirty-seven cards. I spent the whole day in my room, but I did not write a single card! Lesson 4 An exciting trip 激动人心的旅行 I have just received a letter from my brother, Tim. He is in Australia. He has been there for six months. Tim is an engineer. He is working for a big firm and he has already visited a great number of different places in Australia. He has just bought an Australian car and has gone to Alice Springs, a small town in the centre of Australia. He will soon visit Darwin From there, he will fly to Perth. My brother has never been abroad before, so he is finding this trip very exciting. Lesson 5 No wrong numbers 无错号之虞 Mr. James Scott has a garage in Silbury and now he has just bought another garage in Pinhurst. Pinhurst is only five miles from Silbury, but Mr. Scott cannot get a telephone for his new garage, so he has just bought twelve pigeons. Yesterday, a pigeon carried the first message from Pinburst to Silbury. The bird covered the distance the first three minutes. Up to now, Mr. Scott has sent a great many requests for spare parts and other urgent messages from one garage to the other. In this way, he has begun his own private‘telephone’service. Lesson 6 Percy Buttons 珀西·巴顿斯 I have just moved to a house in Bridge Street. Yesterday a beggar knocked at my door. He asked me for a meal and a glass of beer. In return for this, the beggar stood on his head and sang songs. I gave him a meal. He ate the food and drank the beer. Then he put a piece of cheese in his pocket and went away. Later a neighbour told me about him. Everybody knows him. His name is Percy Buttons. He calls at every house in the street once a month and always asks for a meal and a glass of beer.

(完整版)新概念英语2_3册最具背诵价值的课文精选

最具背诵价值的课文精选-新概念2册 新概念英语第2册最具有背诵价值的课文是(共挑选41篇）: 第一单元:lesson 7, 8, 10, 13, 14, 16, 20, 21 第二单元:lesson 25, 28, 29, 32, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 43, 45, 47, 48 第三单元:lesson 49, 51, 52, 54, 55, 56, 58, 61, 64, 65, 69, 71, 第四单元:lesson 73, 78, 80, 83, 85, 89, 93, 96. 之所以选择以上课文，主要是从词，句，篇以及教材编撰四方面来考虑，其中有一半以上课文是站在篇的角度提出的。如果只站在传统英语教学的词与句层面来看问题，所选课文当然会有所变化。 关于什么是篇，略举一例说明：英语中常见的一种语篇发展模式叫做“问题+问题解决型”。这种语篇模式的固定写作手法为4部分：提出问题+分析问题+解决问题+前景。对应新概念英语第2册的课文，尽管绝大部分课文只写了一段，但其基本模式并没有太大的变化，大家可以参照一下第28课，第43课和第61课。而在背诵或诵读或记忆的过程中，可以把一整篇课文分解为4个层次去记忆，每一层次就那么一两句话，比全篇从头到尾记忆或背诵要轻松很多，反过来对今后的外语写作与语文写作都会有很大的帮助。 关于教材编撰，略举一例说明：新2册第10课，从教材编撰的角度，作者需要在此篇文章中重点引出被动语态，全文12句话，有9句是被动语态。这么一篇小短文，从标题开始到每一句话的写作，如果能看出教材编撰者的良苦用心以及文章发展的严密逻辑，那您就不能不对亚力山大的语言组织能力深表佩服。第1句引出标题中的不完整信息，第2句对第1句信息的具体化，第3句回答第1句中old的真实含义。第4，5，6句从三方面进一步对标题中的话题（尽管此文的话题出现在第1句，到第2句才具体）进行介绍，为什么从3个方面？答曰：三角形具有稳定性。第7，8，9句对标题进行回答（也就是对文章焦点进行回答）。其实文章写到第9句就可以结束了，但作为教材而
