人人说英语(中级)Shopping 购物Shopping is a delight for both customers and shop assistants. In big cities, such as Beijing and Shanghai, department stores and shopping centers are open most days of the week from 9 am to 9 pm. Some stores and supermarkets stay open even longer. Now, more and more foreign visitors are interested in going shopping at free markets in Beijing. They often buy some Chinese articles, such as paintings, jade carving etc. People can bargain with sellers, this is because the prices of the goods are too high. So if you don’t bargain, you’ll pay more than necessary.Questions1.Where do you usually go shopping? Why?2.What do you think of Beijing’s shopping environment?3.Do you prefer free market or big shopping center? Why?4.Can you introduce some shopping area to me if I want tobuy clothes?5.What should shop assistant do when meeting foreign customers?6.Where do you usually go when you want to buy clothes?7.When you buy clothes, do you value brands or fashion?Transport 交通To welcome the coming Olympic Games and people from all over the world, Beijing has been modernizing its public transportation. Public buses are the cheapest way. The most convenient way to get around the city, however, is by taxi. Taxi drivers in Beijing are always very friendly to their passengers. Some of them are good tourist guides, too. They talk to you when driving, showing you the government buildings, museums, temples and other places of historical interest along the way. Talking to them, you may feel not only the closeness of the city but also the warmth of humanity. Now, to welcome visitors from all over the world, many of the city’s taxi drivers are beginning to learn English. Just imagine, if they could speak good English, how enjoyable it could be for foreign visitors to take their taxi!Questions1.Can you compare different means of transportation in Beijing?2.What do you think of Beijing’s transportation? What advice doyou have to improve it?3.Do you think cars should be limited or encouraged? Why?4.What do you think of Beijing’s taxi driver?5.What can Beijing do about transportation to welcome the 2008Olympic Games?6.What means of transportation do you use most? What do youthink of it? How do you go to school everyday?7.What should we do to those who do not obey traffic rules?8.What are the main reasons for the crowded transportation inBeijing?Health 健康Now, more and more people want to be a doctor. It is because people know the health is the most important in our lifes. One of my friends Mary just be a person. She is twenty years old, and studying to be a doctor. It’s hard but she loves it. Because she believes that after many years of rapid economic development in this country, people are getting better off now. They need to keep fit, to enjoy good health, better medica l care and good medical treatment. She is confident she will finish her study at the medical school with good credits. And when she becomes a smart doctor, she will do good service to the people of the country and to foreign friends coming from around the world.Questions1.How to keep yourself healthy?2.Do you think a good mood is important to one’s health?Why?3.What do you think of Beijing’s medical service?4.Do you think doing physical exercise is good for your health?What exercise do you do?5.Tell me about one of your experience of illness.Study 学习More and more people today begin to understand that study does not end with a school graduation. Education is not just amiddle school diploma or a college degree; it is life itself. Many people are not interested in studying at a college, and they are interesting in other kinds of learning. They may go to a training class of their own field; they may improve their work skill by following television courses; they may even on Internet class. They certainly know that if they know more or learn more, they can get better jobs or earn more money.Now most students try to learn English, because in 2008, the Olympic Games comes and people from all over the world get together in Beijing. By then, if we can speak English well, all the people will have a better communication.Questions1.How to study English well?2.What subjects do you like most? Why?3.Do you have the plan to study aboard? What do you thinkof it?4.Do you think graduation from college means end ofeducation?5.Besides school education, what other forms of education doyou know?6.Do you like school education? What do you think of exams?7.Do you like your major? Why?First Aid 急救Two years ago, I took part in a training session for first aid. First aid means the aid or help that is given to an injured person or a patient first before any other help arrives. The doctors there taught us how to give basic first aid to patients in different cases. We learn how to deal with heart attack, bleeding, breathing difficulties and heat stroke. I really learned a lot from the session.I remembered that it was my day off and I went to the Forbidden city with several friends. There I noticed a woman looking pale and very painful. I came up to her and asked her if she needed any help. She said she had a very serious stomachache. As a foreigner, she couldn’t speak Chinese and didn’t know what to do with it. I helped her out of the Forbidden City and sent her to the nearest hospital. She was very thankful to me and soon got out of the hospital.Questions1.Do you know any knowledge about first aid? What are they?2.What is China’s first aid service situation like?3.Do you think it important for everyone to learn some first aidknowledge?4.Do you know how to deal with patient who has aheart—attack?Entertainment 娱乐People in China are leading a colorful life. V arious forms of entertainment, traditional and modern, make life in China interesting and exciting. People often prefer listening to storytelling to other forms of entertainment. Usually, a storyteller tells us a story adapted from historic events, famous novels or popular TV series. He may also comment on the characters in the story and judge what is right and what is wrong. Once people begin to listen to it, they are soon absorbed into the story. Also, people needn’t spend money buying tickets for storytelling. They can listen to in on the radio. Storytelling is a convenient form of entertainment and it certainly brings much relaxation and a lot of fun into people’s life.Questions1.Do you think entertainment is important to your life? Why?2.What do you think of the traditional entertainment forms likeopra or comic dialogue?3.What do you think of bar culture?4.What do you think of chasing stars?5.Will entertainment affect your work or study?6.How to balance entertainment and work?7.What other entertainment forms do you enjoy?Travel 旅行Travel has become a world—wide activity. Never before have people traveled so much to so many different parts of the world. With new modes of fast comfortable transport more and more people are tempted to leave their own environment and seek pleasure, knowledge, work and adventure in places far away from their home. People travel for many reasons but perhaps the most common is traveling for pleasure.Questions1.Do you like traveling? Why?2.Which places have you visited in Beijing?3.Where else have you traveled? Can you introduce it?4.Do you think a person who likes traveling is not realistic?5.Do you like traveling with a tour or with some friends?Why?6.Do you think traveling is good for people? Give some reasons.7.Do you like traveling during May Day holiday or National Day?Why or why not?8.When traveling do you like to see natural sights or historicalones? Why?9.What should we pay attention to when travel?10.What do you think of the phenomenon that tourists print theirnames on the Great Wall?Eating in a Restaurant 就餐Chinese food is very popular with many foreigners. When they have a chance to come to China, they would like to try some “real” Chinese food because they know that the Chine se food they have had in their own country is quite different. When foreigners cone to Beijing, they can find many different kings of restaurants here. One of the best known is Quanjude Roast Duck Restaurant. Another fa mous one is Douglaishun. It is famous for “Mongolian hot pot”. There is a restaurant named Fang Shan in Beihai Park. It was set up bu a cook from the Imperial Palace about 80 years ago. It serves palace cooking and cakes. Beijing also has many restaurants with foreign flavor, such as Moscow Restaurant, Kentucky Fried Chicken and McDonald’s.Questions1.Can you tell me about your favorite restaurant?2.Do you prefer eating in a restaurant or at home? Why?3.Which kind of food do you like? Why?4.Do you like fast food restaurant such as KFC? Why?5.Do you prefer Chinese food or western food?6.What do you think of services in Chinese restaurant?Free—time Activities 休闲活动People in Beijing lead a busy, but colorful life. They are busy with work. And the busy work makes them value their free time all the more. They make the best of their leisure time to enrich their life. Many of them take part in outdoor activities, such as sports, camping, mountain--climbing, kite—flying etc. Kite—fling has been an old Chinese pastime. Records about the activity were mentioned as far back as 2,500 years ago. Over the centuries, people have developed kites known for their beauty. People are able to make them look like many animals. Now people will fly kites in early spring and autumn. It’s really a very beautiful scene with kites flying in the sky.Questions1.What do you do in your free time?2.How is Chinese people’s free time life like?3.What free time activities do most Chinese people do?4.How do old people in China spend their free time?5.What do think of flying kites?6.Are there many public sports facilities in your neighborhood?What do you think of them?7.What are your hobbies?8.Do you think it is important to arrange one’s free timeactivities well? Why?Weather 天气Here in Beijing we have four seasons a year. March to May is spring. It’s a warm and beautiful season with flowers everywhere. But it’s also a very windy time. Sandstorm is nothing new to Beijingers. Our summer is from June to August. It’s very hot, except when it rains. But it becomes hot and humid again after the rain. People carry umbrellas for the rain and the sun. Many people turn on their air conditioners and stay indoors to get away from the heat. But some people enjoy sunshine on the beach, or go swimming. I think the best time here is autumn, which is from September to November. It’s coo; and suitable for camping, mountain—climbing and traveling. Autumn is my favorite season. Winter is from December to February. It is very cold and snow a lot. People can go skiing and skate, make snowmen and throw snowballs at each other. But I dislike the cold. So I often stay indoors in the winter.Questions1.What’s Beijing weather like? Do you like Beijing’s weather?2.Which season do you like best? Why?3.Which city in China do you think has the best summer,autumn or winter?4.What do you think of Beijing’s four seasons?5.What’s your opinion about Beijing’s sandstorm?6.What kinds of sports do you like to do in different seasons?7.Which city do you think has the best climate?Chinese Holiday and Festivals 中国的节假日Different countries have different cultures and customs. China has a rich and unique culture. Chinese festivals and holidays are quite different from other counties. In China, there are many traditional festivals. The most important one is Spring Festival. It falls on the first day of the first lunar month. People follow many national and local customs. They paste spring poems with lucky words on the door. They eat delicious food, for example, chicken for good luck. They exchange greetings with friends and relatives. Other important festivals include: New Y ear, Tomb—Sweeping, Mid Autumn Harvest Festival etc.Questions1.Which holiday do you like best? Can you tell me how youcelebrate it?2.What’s your opinion about holiday economy, like May Day orNational Day?3.Talk about spring festival and how do people in your hometown celebrate it?4.How did you spend the May Day holiday?5.Can you introduce QingMing to a foreign friend? And teacher’sday?6.How about other holidays like mid—autumn day, and so on?Sports and the Olympic Games 体育运动与奥运会I think I’ll always do some kind of sports. For instance, I’m going skating this year. I’m not really any good, but I’ve always been interested in sport. I enjoy it. Sport is the greatest activityof all. I think if you’re not interested in sport, you’re not interested in life. Sport is what makes us different from animals. I enjoy all kinds of sports, especially like basketball. It’s a very fast and exciting game. Most of my friends at school like to play it but I’m not good at it. I love to watch it very much. Questions1.What sports do you like?2.What do you feel about Beijing’s holding 2008 Olympic Games?3.What do you think of the “Five Lucky Children”?4.Do you like watching sports games on TV?

中级口语教程Lesson 1 Too Clever Text AA farmer who lived in a small village suffered from a severe pain in the chest. This never seemed to get any better. The farmer eventually decided that he would consult a doctor in the nearest town. But as he was a miserly person he thought he would find out what he would have to pay this doctor. He was told that a patient had to pay three pounds for the first visit and one pound for the second' visit. The farmer thought about this for a long time, and then he decided to go and consult the doctor in the town.As he came into the doctor's consulting room, he said causally,´ Good morning, doctor. Here I am again.' The doctor was a little surprised. He asked him a few questions, examined his chest and then took the pound which the farmer insisted on giving him. Then the doctor said with a smile , Well , sir. There's nothing new. Please continue to take the same medicine I gave you the first time you came to see me.'Text BA man went to see his doctor one day because he was suffering from pains in his stomach. After the doctor had examined him carefully, he said to him, `Well, there's nothing really wrong with you, I'm glad to say. Your only trouble is that you worry too much. Do you know, I had a man with the same trouble as you in here a few weeks ago, and I gave him the same advice as I'm going to give you. He was worried because he couldn't pay his tailor's bills. I told him not to worry his head about the bills any more. He followed my advice, and when he came to see me again two days ago, he told me that he now feels quite all right again. '`Yes, I know all about that,' answered the patient sadly.`You see , I'm that man's tailor.'Additional InformationDoctor: Good morning. How are you?Patient: I'm very worried; doctor.Doctor: Oh? What are you worried about?Patient: I'm afraid that I'm very ill.Doctor: I'm sorry to hear that. Why do you think so?Patient: Because I feel tired all the time, even when I wake up in the morning. I find it very difficult to do any work. 1 have no appetite. My wife cooks me delicious meals but I can only eat a little.Doctor: How do you sleep? Patient: Very badly, doctor.Doctor: Do you find it difficult to get to sleep, or do you wake up early?Fatient: Both, doctor. I never get to sleep until 2 o'clock and I always wake at 5.Doctor: Are you worried about anything?Patient: Well , yes , I am. I'm worried about my work. I've just taken a new job.I earn a lot of money but it's difficult work. I'm always afraid of making a mistake.Doctor: I see. Please take off your shirt and lie down on the couch.Patient: Yes , doctor.(The Doctor examines the patient )Doctor: Well , there's nothing very much wrong with you , I'm glad to say. You're working too hard and worrying too much. Do you take much exercise?Patient: No, doctor. I never have enough time for exercise. I start work very early in the morning and finish late in the evening. Then I can't get to sleep.Can you give me some medicine to help me to sleep?Doctor: I can, but I'm not going to. You don't need medicine. You need advice.Don't work so hard. Too much work is bad. for you. Don't worry about your work. It's silly to worry. Take regular exercise.Patient: But I may lose my job , doctor ! It's hard to get a job like mine.Doctor: Then get an easier one , even if you earn less money.Which would you rather have, health or wealth? Patient: You' re right , doctor. It's more important to be healthy than wealthy. I'll change my job. I'm grateful for your advice.Doctor: Come and see me again in a month's time. I think you'll be a different man !Lesson 2Au Pair Girl Texta Gretel comes from Austria.She is eighteen years old. She is going to stay with the Clark family for a year. Gretel has come to England because she wants to improve her English. She works as an au pair girl. She helps Mrs Clark in the house and attends English classes regularly in her spare time. Gretel hasn' t been in England long and everything is strange to her. She often compares life in London with life in Vienna. Some things are nicer in London; other things are not so nice. For instance, the shops are bigger in London than in Vienna and there is greater variety. But it's more expensive to enjoy yourself in London. It's expensive to have a meal at a restaurant or to go to a theatre.Gretel has got used to many things already, but she can't get used to breakfast in England. You English eat so much in the morning, she often says. Fruit juice, porridge, bacon and egg, tea, toast and marmalade! How can you face all that food so early in the day?Text BMaria had decided that as soon as she had finished school she would become an au pair girl in London. Two of her friends had already spent a year with a family in Kensington, and told her they had had an interesting time and had managed to learn a lot of English. She was advised by her Head Teacher to get her parents' consent and to make all the necessary arrangements prior to her departure: have enough money for her return fare, know exactly what kind of a family she was going to live with and what they expected of her.Shortly after her eighteenth birthday Maria received a letter from Mrs Hutchinson, the wife of an advertising executive, stating the terms on which she would be employed. The Hutchinsons lived in a house in Chelsea. They had three children; two boys, aged fourteen and ten, both at boarding schools, the elder at a Public School in the Midlands and the younger at a Preparatory School in Surrey; the youngest child was a girl aged eight, and she went to the French Lycee in SouthKensington. During term time Maria would have to take the girl to school in the morning and fetch her in the afternoon. She would have to help Mrs Hutchinson in the house - washing up, making the beds, laying the table, dusting the rooms, answering the door, taking telephone messages, shopping and running errands.She would be guaranteed three evenings a week free and could attend English classes either from eleven till one in the morning or from half past one till four in the afternoon. She would receive 3 a week pocket money. Maria was delighted with the conditions and thought that they were fair. She also liked the look of the family, as Mrs Hutchinson had thoughtfully enclosed a photograph with her letter.Additional Information It was nothing for a girl t.o be sent away to service when she was eleven years old. That meant leaving the family as she had never been parted from for a day in her life before, and going to some place miles away to be treated like a dog. I've got nothing against girls going into good service. In my opinion, good service in a properly run big house was a wonderful training for a lot of girls who never would have seen anything different all the days of their lives if they hadn't gone. It was better than working on the land, then, and if it still existed now, I reckon I'd rather see any of my daughters be a goodhousemaid or a well-trained parlour maid than a dolled-up shop-assistant or a factory worker. But folks are too proud to work for other folks, now. even if it's to their own advantage, though as far as I can see you are still working for other folks , whatever you're doing. Big houses didn't want little girls of eleven, even as kitchen maids, so the first few ycars had to be put in somewhere else, before you got even that amount of promotion.Big houses expected good service, but you got good treatment in return. It . wasn't like that at the sort of place my friends had to go. Mostly they went to the farmers' houses within ten or twenty miles from where they'd been born. These farmers were a jumped Up, proud lot who didn't know how to treat the people who worked for them. They took advantage of the poor people's need to get their girls off their hands to get little slaves for nearly nothing. The conditions were terrible.Lesson 3 Who Took the Money?Text AMr Smith gave his wife ten pounds for her birthday-ten pretty pound notes. So the day after her birthday, Mrs Smith went shopping. She queued for a bus, got on and sat down next to an old lady. After a while, she noticed that the old lady's handbag was open. Inside it, she saw a wad of pound notes exactly like the one her husband had given her. So she quickly looked into her own bag- the notes had gone!Mrs Smith was sure that the old lady who was sitting next to her had stolen them. She thought she would have to call the police; but, as she disliked making a fuss and getting people into trouble, she decided to take back the money from the old lady's handbag and say nothing more about it. She looked round the bus to make sure nobody was watching, then she carefully put her hand into the old lady's bag , took the notes and put them in her own bag. When she got home that evening, she showed her husband the beautiful hat she had bought.´How did you pay for it?' he asked.´With the money you gave me for my birthday, of course,' she replied.´Oh? What's that, then?' he asked, as he pointed to a wad of ten pound notes on the table.Text B'Goodbye, darling,' said Mr Mackin. 'I'll be late tonight.' Poor George, she thought. He was always in a hurry in the morning, and it wasn't unusual for him to come home late at night. He worked for a shoe company in Lceds. and therc was such a lot of work that he normally staycd in the office till seven or cight.When George had left the house Mrs Mackin sat down. in an armchair and turned on the radio. It was a few minutes past eight , and she heard the last words of the news :'...wman who escaped from I.ceds prison yesterday is still free. The police warn you not to open your door to strangers. 'She turned off the radio. The housework was waiting for her. Shc made the beds and washed the dishes. There wasn't auy shopping to do. and so she thought for a moment of all the Work in the garden.The Mackins lived in a house with a large garden in a suburb of Leeds. Behind the garden there were some trees. and then the cpen fields.Suddenly Mrs Mackin remembered the news. She laughed uneasily. That prison is only 15 miles away, she thought. She didn't work in the garden, she mended her husband 's shirts instead And she care.fully lockcd the front door and closed all the windows.It was getting dark. She turned on the lights in the livingroom.Thcn she noticed that she had turned on the lights in most of the roonss in the house.'How silly I am!' she said nervously and went into the other rooms and turned the leghts on.The person at the door said something loudly. but she was so frightened that she dien't understand a word. Additional Information Do you believe in ghosts? I don't, eitlter-or at least I didn't until I heard a strange story the other day from Mr Mike Paton, of 19 Marlborough llill.It all began on November 28, whcn Mr Paton's eight-ycar-old son, Bob , was playing in the big back garden of his parents' house. He met an old man with a long white beard. The old man told Bob he was builcling the underground railway there, but Bob didn't believe him. Bob told me afterwards that he knew the underground ran under Marlborough Hill itself. The old man said there had been an accident the day before. Then he went away.At first the Patons didn't believe Bob's story. Mrs Paton told me that Bob often made up stories about ghosts and monsters, like other children of his age. But Mr Paton was curious and decided that he would go to the library to check up on the facts.He found that the railway compapy had started to build the line to the west of Marlborough Hill in 1881. but they had run into an underground river. Ten workmen had died in an accident and the Company had changed the direction of the line and built the present tunnel under Marlborough Hill. At first I didn't believe Mr Paton's storv either, so I did some research myself.Inspector Bright of the Metropolitan Police said it was natural to find tramps in the district in winter, but no one had reported one answering the description I had given him since last August.Mr Joseph Griffiths of London Transport checked the files on the accident for me. He told me that the accident had apparently taken place on or very near the junction of Marlborough Hill and Woodstock Avenue on 27 November 1881. Mr Paton's house stands on the corner!The source of this extraordinary story was not affected by the news. 'I told Mummy it was true,' young Bob Paton told me yesterday. When I left the house he was playing happily with his toy cars-in the garden!Lesson4Musical Half-Notes Text AA musician who played Pop Music in a CLub lived in boardinghouse in the centre of london. He always used to get back to his room very late at night and sometimes inthe carly hours of the morning. He was so tired when he got back that he would si ton the edge of his bed ,take off his shoes and throw them on the floor and say. 'Thank goodness. another day is over.' He would thcn get into hcd and fall fast aslecp. But thepoor lodger who had the room under the musician's was wokcn up cach night, or carly?in the morning. by the two thuds that the two shoes made as thcy landcd On his ceiling.Finally, he could not stand it any more and went and complained to thc musician.Naturally the musician was very upset and promiscd that, in future, aftcr taking off his shoes, he would put them down as quictly as possible on the carpct.The ncxt day, he got back from his club at about one o'clock in the morning. went up to his room, sat on the edge of his bed, took off one shoe and threw it on the floor. He was just about to do the same with the other when suddenly remcmbered the promise he had made the day before. So with grcat care he put the second shoe down silently on the carpet. Then he got into bed and fell fast aslecp. An hour later, he was woken up by a violent knocking on his door. It was thc lodger who slept in the room just under his.'Plcase, plcase, please,' the Iodger plcaded, 'drop the other shoe. I have been waiting for a whole hour for you to drop it. As soon as you do I can go to sleep. 'Text BOf all the men who ever liked fresh air, not one liked it more than James Wilson. He took long walks in the fresh air. He ran long distances in the fresh air. He played football and other games in the fresh air. He liked to climb mountains and breathe the fresh air at the top. He used to go to sit by the sea and watch the great waves in the fresh air. He always slept with his windows wide open. He had an open car with no roof, and he drove it madly through the fresh air.If Wilson entered a room where the windows were shut, he immediately opened them. He did this even when snow was falling outside. If someone else shut the windows again, he walked out of the room in a manner which showed his opinions without any doubt. When he travelled by sea, he could usually be found in a place on board where the wild wind was blowing through his hair.One winter Wilson went to Finland on business. Good hotels in Finland are heated during the cold winter, and this winter was even colder than usual. When Wilson reached his room in the hotel. he found that the windows were closed to keep the icy air out. He did his best to open one , but failed. It was absolutely impossible to open it : the manager had very wisely arranged that.Wilson undressed and got into bed. He was a very angry man.The bedroom was very pleasant. Two or three pictures on the walls showed views of some beautiful parts of Finland. There was no noise at all. The bed was really excellent; but Wilson could not sleep. He could not forget the closed window. No fresh air! It was terrible to think of!He got out of bed and tried once more to open the window; but it was useless, and he sadly got back into bed. At about one o'clock in the morning he was still awake, worrying about the air in the bedroom. He had turned over in bed two hundred and thirty-six times. He was very hot. As he turned over for the two hundred and thirty-seventh time, one arm came out of the bedclothes and hung down beside the bed. His hand touched the floor. It also touched something on the floor. This thing was a shoe.An idea came into his worried mind. Angry men act quickly,and the shoe was in his hand in less than a second. Where was the window? He could see something that looked like glass over there. He threw the shoe through the darkness with all the force of his strong right arm.The shoe flew straight through the air and hit the glass in the middle. A terrible sound of breaking glass filled the bedroom,but to Wilson's sad heart it seemed like the sound of sweet and beautiful music.Now I have some fresh air in the room, he thought. NOW I need not die.Five minutes later he was peacefully asleep. He did not move for many hours.When daylight came gently through the window, he awoke and lay with his eyes closed. Where was he? Oh, yes! He was in Fioland; but what the matter? Was auytlting wrong'? There was something to worry about What was it? Oh. the broken windmv! Yes, indeed. He would have to pas?for that.How much.? Was it a big piece of glass? He could not remember. He Opened his eyes to look.Slowly he tnrned them towards the window. and then he sat up suddenly in bed. He was very surprised: the window was not broken at all. The glass was all in one piece. just as good as it had been the might before. No fresh air was etitering the room through that window.What,then,had happened when he threw the shoe?He turned his eyes to the side and saw a broken picture hanging on the wall.There was a shoe on the floor below it. He could see a lot of broken glass round the shoe . and there was more inside it. Additional Information Here is what happened to Adrian Fox on the train one day:Adrian Fox lives in Devon and he is travelling home from London by train. He decides to have a cup of tea. and goes to the train buffet. While he is drinking his t.ea, an attractive girl comes and sits at the same table. They begin talking and the girl tells Adrian she is going to Devon on holiday. They are soon very friendly. Adrian finds out that the girl hasn't yet found a hotel to stay in. Adrian's mother has a spare room in her house, and Aclrian invites the girl to stay there. He knows his mother won't mind. The girl accepts.A few minutes later a man comes and sits beside the girl. who introduces hint to Adrian. He is her husband. Adrian didn't know the giri was married, and he is a little angry. His mother won't like to have two people staying in her house. Then three children arrive. Two of them are carrying cats. and one has a small dog. They are the girl'a children. They are all very happy, the girl says, to be staying in Adrian's mother's house. Eut Adrian isn't so happy. When he reaches the station he phones his mother. . .Lesson 5Text A :Is He a Hero?Fire! Fire! What terrible words to hear when one wakes up in a strange house in the middle of the night! It was a large, old, wooden house-the sort that burns beautifully---and my room was on the top floor. I jumped out of bed, opened the door and stepped out into the passage. It was full of thick smoke. I began to run, but as I was still only balf-awake, instead of going towards the stairs I went in thc opposite direction. The smoke grew thicker and I could see flames all around. The floor became hot under my bare feet. I found an opcn door and ran into a room to get to the window. But bcfore I could reach it, one of my feet caught in something soft and I fell down. The thing I had fallen over felt like a bundle of clothes , and I picked it up to protect my face from the smoke and heat. Just then the floor . gave way under me and I crashed to the floor below with pieces of burning wood all around me.I saw a flaming doorway in front . put the bundle over my face and ran. My feet burned me terribly, but I got through. As I reached the cold air outside, my bundle of clothes gave a thin cry. I nearly dropped it in my surprisel? Then I saw a crowd gathered in the street. A woman in a night-dress and a borrowed man's coat screamed as she saw me and came running madly.My baby ! My baby! she cried. The crowd chcered wildly as she took the smoke-blackened bundle out of my arms. I had some difficulty in recognizing her. She was the Mayor's wife, and I had saved her baby. I was a hero!Text BTeresa went up to Mrs Webster's room, two stairs at a time. She was nearly at the top when she stopped and sniffed. A strong smell of gas was coming from that direction. Teresa ran up the remaining stairs and threw open the door. She put her hands over her mouth to stop a scream. Mrs Webster was lying on the floor near the sink. Her skin and lips had a pinkish colour and she appeared to be unconscious. The room was full of gas. Additional Information Who doesn't love sitting beside a cosy fire on a cold winter's night? Who doesn't love to watch flames curling up a chimney? Fire is one of man's greatest friends, but also one of his greatest enemies. Many big fires are caused by carelessness. A lighted cigarette thrown out of a car or train window or a broken bottle lying on dry grass can start a fire. Sometimes,though, a fire can start on its own. Wet hay can begin burning by itself. This is how it happens: the hay starts to.rot and begins to give off heat which is trapped inside it. Finally, it bursts into flames. That's why farmers cut and store their hay when it's dry.Fires have destroyed whole cities. In the l7th century, a small fire which began in a baker's shop burnt down nearly every building in London. Moscow was set on fire during the war againstNapoleon. This fire continued burning for seven days. And, of course, in 64 A. D. Nero fiddled while Rome burned! Even today, in spite of modern fire-fighting methods. fire causes millions of pounds' worth of damage each year both in our cities and in the countryside. It has been wisely said that fire is a good servant but a bad master.Lesson 6 How It Feels When Parents DivorceText AAri, age fourteenWhen my parents were married, I hardly ever saw my Dad becausc he was always busy working. Now that they're divorced , I've gotten to know him more because I'm with him everu weckend. And I really look forward to the weekends because it's kind of like a break-it's like going to Disncyland because thcre's no set schedule, no Be home by five-thirty kind of stuff. It's open. It's free. And my father is always buying me presents. My Mom got remarried and divorced again, so I've gone through two divorces so far. And my father's also gotten remarricd-to someone I don't get along with all that well. It's all rnade me fcel that people shouldn't get married-they should just livc together and make their own agreement. Then, if things get bad , they don't have to get divorced and hire lawyers and sue each other. And. even more important, they don't have to end up hating each other.I'd say that the worst part of the divorce is the money problem. It's been hard on mv Mom because lots of times she can't pay her bills, and it makes her angry when I stay with my fatherand he buys me things. She gets mad and says things like If he can buy you things like this , then he should be able to pay me. And I feel caught in the middle for two reasons; first, I can't really enjoy whatever my Dad does get for me, and second, I don't know who to believe. My Dad's saying, I don't really owe her any money, and my Mom's saying he does. Sometimes I fight for my Mom and sometimes I fight for my Dad, but I wish they'd leave me out of it completely.In a lot of ways I wish my Mom would get remarried, because then she wouldn't have to worry so much about finances. But I'm sorry that my Dad got remarried, because I feel left out a lot of times. And one thing I really worry about is that I think they want to have a baby, and I know that if they do, it will be just like a replacement for me. That's because I only see my Dad on weekends, and since he would see the baby more than he'd see me, he'd probably grow to like it more than he likes me. It could be a lot like what happened with my dog Spunkur. I've had him for about six years and I've always said I'll never love any dog as much as I love him. Well, a year ago I picked up a little black Labrador puppy from the pound, and now I find I'm not as friendly with Spunkur as I used to be. And I think Spunkur feels jealous , just like I would if my Dad and my stepmother had a baby. My Dad said it wouldn't be that way, that we'd be a whole family and I'd have a little brother or sister, which would be a lot of fun, but I told him, Look, by the time the kid is old ehougli to talk, I'll be out of college. I'm not going to have anything to do with a baby. You know that it's just a replacement for me !If I lived'full-time with my Dad, it would probably be easier for me to accept a haby because we'd be on an equal footing, but I'd rather stay with my Mom, where life is normal-where welive like most people live, with breakfast at breakfast time and dinner at d;nner time. I do my homework, play with my friends-it's all the way life should be. If I lived with my Dad, it might be more fun at times, but I would go crazy. I wouldn't want to be brought up that way.Text BSara, age twelve I guess the main reason I was mad at Daddy was because it all made my mother so unhapp.y, and I ended up feeling sorry for both of them-my mother because she was struggling to make ends meet, and my Dad because he couldn't really do much about it.Even though my parents separated more than three years ago, it's still very vivid in my mind and I doubt if I'll ever forget the way I felt at the time. Yet, as awful as it was, I never hoped they'd get back together. And now I think I'd die if they did, because it would be so awkward for rne. I think they're both much happier now,. and it's obvious to me that they both lead totally different lives. Since the breakup I've been able to see my parents' true colors'especially my mother's. I've seen a side of her that I never saw before. When she was married, she and Daddy were the perfect couple, always quiet, talking about dignified things, and they would never laugh or anything. Nowadays my mother is always happy and ggy. Another way she's changed is that she always used to hide her problems from me but now she's more apt to discuss things. I think she's more relaxed-and so's my Dad.Both of my parents started dating other people right away, and I think they'll both get remarried eventually, which is fine with me. They don't discuss their love lives with me all that much, but of course I'm not blind. For example, one night I had a sleep-over at a friend's house and the next morning I came home earlier than I'd planned to. Well, I just stormed into my mother's bedroom, and there was this guy in her bed-she was somewhere else, in another room. I started crying and everything, and my mother tried to convince me she had slept on the couch. Now that I look back, it was pretty hilarious, and of course I don't care-I mean, I understand about those kind of arrangements. In the beginning, when my father had a girlfriend sleep over, he didn't know how to tell me-he just sort of said, Oh , you're sleeping on the couch tonight , because at that point I didn't have my own room at his house and shared the bedroom. It's still hard for my Dad to level with me about this part of his life, but he's getting better. Anyhow, neither of them should worry about my getting upset, because I'm old enough to understand that grown-ups are allowed to have private lives, which includes other people. But if someone's going to spend the night, I think it's better and less awkward if I know about it beforehand, so I'm not taken by surprise.I still want to get married and have kids , but I have a lot of friends who don't want to. I was discussing marriage with one boy I know, and he said, I'm never ever getting married. He took his parents' divorce really badly because his mother and father weren't friends afterwards-they were enemies, screaming on the phone to each other. I'm glad my parents are good friends, having lunch together and stufi. I think it's so much easier for the child if the parents are friendly. If they aren't, it's really difficuit because there's always a right side and a wrong side and the kids are just caught in the middle.I think I've grown up a little faster because of rny parents' divorce. It's made me realize more about the problems of life and helped me to understand my parents-and appreciate them as individuals. It's just too bad they couldn't have been as happy and productive as a couple as they've been since they've been on their own. And I also wish that the next time my mother has tickets for a Rolling Stonesl8 concert, she takes me instead of her boyfriend, which is what she did the last time! Additional Information Heather, age eleven So we have to switch back and forth, doing it on a weekly basis seems to work the best. I'll try to make one room my real room and have the otherone Iike camping out. I can't buy two of everytlring, so I might as well have one good room that's really mine.Another aspect of josnt custody that's difficult is that my parents have very different rules and philosophies about life. For example, my Dad's attitude is that he lets us learn by our mistakes , and my mother does exactly the opposite-she tells us how to act before we make the mistake. And my Dad says we can watch TV for a while after school , and my Mom says we can'tthat we have to sel'ect our programs verv carefully. At my Dad's house Matthew has to do his homework right away, but he gets to stay up until nine and watch The A I'eam because that's his favorite show. Mom doesn't want him to when we're at her house but she feels she has to give in because Matthew says, Well, Daddy lets me do that at his house. He's learning to play them against each other at a very early age. I don't do that, but I have to admit there are times when I secretly wish I was at whichever house I'm not at.It would be nice if there could be a special house for divorced families. It would be like two houses, side by side, with a place in the middle where the kids could live. Then when parents had arguments they could each go to their own place and get away from each other and think things out by themselves. That way, they could realize how dumb they were behaving and get back together again. I know it's too late for that kind of arrangement with my parents-and as I look back I see that they're both.happier being apart. My father's become a different person, you know, and it's unbelievable. I like the person he is now because he doesn't get angry as fast as he used to. And my mother's much happier because she doesn't have to worry about getting Daddy mad. Another good thing that's happened is that my father's turned into a terrific cook, and it makes me feel proud to be one of the only, people in my class whose father cooks and does things like' taking me to hockey practice and to sewing. And it's great to see how my Mom doesn't have to rely on Daddy to pay the bills and throw out the garbage. She's working now andthat's helped her feel important. Neither of them has to rely on the other one in dumb ways, the way they used to, and I thinkthey're both much better off as a result. I know that neither of them will ever be able to forget all the anger, but I think that as time gdes on they'll sort of come to their senses and be pretty good friends. That's what I hope for more than anything in the world!Lesson 7 Going ShoppingText A Gretel and Mrs Clark went shopping in the centre of London yesterday.I'd like to know which store you like best in London, Mrs Clark , Gretel said.Now that's a difficult question, Mrs Clark replied. I just haven't any idea which store I like best. There are so many huge stores in London. I suppose Selfridges must be the biggest.There's so much variety there. I can usually find what I'm looking for. Then there's Liberty's. It's such a lovely building. Harrods is very famous, too. It's such a。
