She stood by the window and looked out unhappily at a gray cat walking along a gray fence in a gray back yard.
2、 Tomorrow would be Christmas Day, and she had only one dollar and eighty-seven cents to buy her husband Jim a gift. She had been saving every penny she could for months, with this result.There was a tall glass mirror between the windows of the room. Suddenly Della turned from the window and stood be

Quickly she pulled down her hair and let it fall to its full length.Della and Jim had two possessions which they valued. One was Jims gold watch that had been his fathers and hi
4、s grandfathers. The other was Dellas hair. So now Dellas beautiful hair fell about her, shining like a brown waterfall. It reached below her knees and made itself almost like a covering for her. And then quickly she put it up again. She stood still while a few tears fell on the floor.She put on her

Hair Goods of All Kinds. Della ran up the steps to the shop, out of breath.Will you buy my hair? asked Della.I buy hair, sa

Take your hat off and let us have a look at it.”Down came the beautiful brown waterfall of hair.Twenty dollars, said Madame, lifting the hair with an experienced hand.Give it to me quick, said Della.The next two hours went by as if they had wings.

She gave the shopkeeper twenty-one dollars and she hurried home with the eighty-seven cents that was left. When Della arrived home she began to repair what was left of her hair. The

Within forty minutes her head was covered with tiny round curls of hair that made her look wonderfully like a schoolboy. She looked at herself in the glass mirror long and carefully.麦琪的礼
9、物（1）黛拉停止了哭泣，擦干了脸。她站在窗前，忧伤地看着灰蒙蒙的后院里一只灰色的猫正沿着灰色的篱笆行走。明天就是圣诞节了，而她只有一块八毛七分钱来给她的丈夫吉姆买礼物。这已经是她省吃俭用攒了好几个月的结果。房间的两个窗户之间有一面高高的镜子。突然，黛拉从窗边转过身来，站到镜子前，看着镜中的自己。她的双眼闪着晶亮的光，可是二十秒内，她的面色猛然间变了。她迅速地把头发解开，放下来。黛拉和吉姆用有两件视若珍宝的东西：一件是吉姆的祖父和父亲传给他的金表，另一件就是黛拉的长发。现在，黛拉美丽的长发披散在她的身上，就像棕色的瀑布闪耀着光泽。头发一直垂到她的膝下，简直就是一件天然的外套。随后她又快速地把头发
10、扎好。她一动不动，几滴眼泪滴落在地板上。她穿上外套，戴上那顶棕色的旧帽子。眼里仍然闪烁着光芒，她翩然走出房门，跑到大街上。在一个写着“索夫罗涅太太经营各种头发制品”的招牌前面，黛拉停了下来。她气喘吁吁地跑上台阶。“您愿意买我的头发吗？”黛拉问。“我买头发，”太太说。“把帽子摘下来让我看看吧。”棕色的瀑布倾泻而下。“二十块，”夫人说，用她老练的手抓起头发。“快给我钱，”黛拉说。接下来的两个小时如长了翅膀一般飞逝而过。黛拉一家商店接一家商店地为吉姆搜寻合适的礼物。她终于找到了。那是一条表链白银质地、款式简单，和吉姆的金表简直就是绝配。她付给店主二十一块钱，然后拿着剩下的八毛七分，匆匆忙忙赶回自己的
11、家。黛拉回到家后，赶紧开始打理一头短发。由于对吉姆的爱，由于她想送给他一件特别的礼物的渴望，她牺牲了自己的头发。修复这些短发可相当不易。不到四十分钟，她的头上便盖满了细小的发卷，这使得她看上去就像个小男生。她对着镜子，久久地、小心翼翼地看着自己的新造型。重点单词:1. motion m()n n. 动作；移动2. curl kl n. 卷曲；卷发重点短语 / 亮点句式：1. put up束起(头发)；建造。如：Shes put her hair up.她把头发挽在头上。Many blocks of flats were put up in the 1990s.许多公寓式建筑群都是20世纪90年

15、n. He looked thin and very serious. Jim stopped inside the door. His eyes were fixed upon Della. There was an expression in them that she could not read, and it frightened her. It was not anger, nor surprise, nor fear, nor any of the feelings that she had been prepared for. He simply looked at her with a strange expression on his face.You have cut off your hair? asked Jim, slowly, as if he had not accepted the information even after his mind worked very hard.Cut it off and sold it, said Della. Do you not like me just as well? I am the same person without my hair, r
