He had often dreamed of retiring in England and had planned to settl
2、e down in the country. He had no sooner returned than he bought a fine house and went to live there. Almost immediately he began to complain about the weather, for even though it was still summer, it rained continually and it was often bitterly cold. After so many years of sunshine, Harrison got a s
3、hock. He acted as if he had never lived in England before. In the end, it was more than he could bear. He had hardly had time to settle down when he sold the house and left the country. The dream he had had for so many years ended there. Harrison had thought of everything except the weather. Lesson3

Her eyes were fixed on her plate and in a short time, she was busy eating. I tried to make conversation. A new play is coming to“ The Globe“ soon, I said. Will you be s
8、eeing it ? No, she answered. Will you be spending your holidays abroad this year ? I asked. No, she answered. Will you be staying in England? I asked. No, she answered. In despair, I asked her whether she was enjoying her dinner. Young man, she answered, if you ate more and talked less, we would bot
9、h enjoy our dinner ! lesson41 Do you call that a hat? 你把那个叫帽子吗？你把那个叫帽子吗？ Do you call that a hat ? I said to my wife. You neednt be so rude about it, my wife answered as she looked at herself in the mirror. I sat down on one of those modern chairs with holes in it and waited. We had been in the hat s
10、hop for half an hour and my wife was still in front of the mirror. We mustnt buy things we dont need, I remarked suddenly. I regretted saying it almost at once. You neednt have said that, my wife answered. I need not remind you of that terrible tie you bought yesterday. I find it beautiful, I said.

The leader of the party was examining the soil near the entrance to the cave when the machine showed that there was gold under the ground. Very excited, the party dug a hole two feet deep. They finally found a small gold coin whi

The most unusual car was a Benz which had only three wheels. Built in 1885, it was the oldest car taking part. Aft

The winning car reached a speed of forty miles an hour-much faster than any of its rivals. It sped down
15、hill at the end of the race and its driver had a lot of trouble trying to stop it. The race gave everyone a great deal of pleasure.
