Mr.Good_大学英语作文
Mr. GoodI could鈥檝e kicked myself for chasing a woman bass player all the way to Cincinnati: a month after I got there, I left her for a twenty-three-year-old grocery clerk. A few weeks later that was over, too, and I didn鈥檛 even have money for a bus ticket back to Dallas. I hadn鈥檛 been able to find a gig since I鈥檇 moved.I tried finding work in a music store, and then started applying anywhere and everywhere鈥攆ast food, motels, convenience stores鈥攁nd finally to stay out of a homeless shelter I had to pawn the only one of my guitars worth much, a 1965 Gibson Hummingbird. I stayed drunk for two days. Then I started working day labor so I could get it back. I was mixing mortar and carrying bricks, which I hated because it messed with my hands. The second week I smashed a thumbnail.Everyday I went to the pawnshop to make sure the guitar was still there. The owner looked like a vaguely degenerate antique dealer in a movie. He wore a vest.Every morning I got up at five and made the half-hour walk to the temp service, a trailer set up in a gravel lot. The place looked like a used car dealership without any cars and the owner was a big thick guy named Purcell who was quick to let you know he was retired Navy. The whole set up was pretty shady. Pay was always in cash and you had to get there before dawn to get a job. Except for me the crowd was all Mexican, illegals I鈥檓pretty sure. They stayed to themselves, so I鈥檇 stand alone while we waited for Purcell to show up and smoke and drink coffee and think about how I was going to smash the guitar over a low brick wall once I got it back. My father gave it to me when I was eighteen. One afternoon, 1979, when my high school let out hewas in the parking lot sitting on the hood of an old Lincoln he鈥檇 parked sideways across five spaces. You couldn鈥檛 miss him any way you looked. He was dressed in the same outfit Hank Williams was buried in. I hadn鈥檛heard from him for seven years.I told my friends I was supposed to meet with a teacher and went back inside and hid in the bathroom鈥擨 figured if I waited long enough he鈥檇 leave. The janitor ran me out of there so I wouldn鈥檛 interfere with his drinking. I killed some time walking the halls, then fooling at my locker. Finally the assistant principal who was locking up made me leave.He was still outside. It was deserted now. He smiled and waved."Thought that was you I saw," he said. "Figured I鈥檇 wait."I nodded. I didn鈥檛 know what to say."I hear you鈥檙 e getting ready to be a high school graduate," he said.I nodded again."That鈥檚 real good." He cocked his head, looking at me and smiling. "Your grandma don鈥檛 mind your hair being that long?""She hasn鈥檛 said anything.""First time I came in with a duck tail she chased me with the scissors." He took a pack of cigarettes from his inside coat pocket and rapped it on his knee and a single cigarette jumped halfway out, and if he hadn鈥檛 been my father that would鈥檝e been cool as hell.He wanted to go get a hamburger. The inside of the Lincoln smelled like a strip club at six AM. The radio was missing. I reminded him how to get to McKenna鈥檚, a place that had curb service. After we got our drinks he poured part of his Coke outthe window and filled it back up from a pint of bourbon he pulled from under the seat. He offered me the bottle but I shook my head."Don鈥檛 drink?" he asked.I shrugged.He nodded. "Don鈥檛 seem to talk, either."After seven years that crawled all over me. I turned away and stared out my window."Ah son," he said, "I know, I know. I . . . well," and then I heard his cup slosh. I was looking out at a station wagon where a woman was handing around soft serve cones to her kids. A little boy in the backseat was looking back at me."Your grandma tells me you鈥檙e playing now," he said."Yeah." I still didn鈥檛 look at him."What鈥檙e you doing?"I was in a bad cover band that played sock hops and dances at country clubs. I鈥檇been listening to Earl Klugh and Wes Montgomery, too, trying some of that out."Not much," I said.The boy pulled his nose up with his thumb and grinned. He had braces. His mother had on a green scarf."I guess you don鈥檛 go in for Bob Wills and such," he said."No," I said."Not many do anymore," he said. "That鈥檚 why this car鈥檚 such a piece of shit."Then neither of us said anything. A long minute passed, then another. The little boy kept making faces between licks of his cone. Then the mother caught him. After a glance at me, she jerked him around by the collar.I heard him splash bourbon into his cup again.Then the car hop brought the tray with the food and hung it on his window and I felt like I could finally turn around."Anything else?" she asked. She was bleach blond and pudgy 鈥擨 recognized her from school a couple years back but didn鈥檛 know her. She had on white jeans and a pink shirt with the tails tied into a knot below her breasts. When you looked at her all you saw was stomach."You all got any ice cream left in there?" he said."Sure," she said."Then get you one and charge it on my ticket. Girl who looks sweet as cake needs some ice cream to go with her."She giggled."Or maybe you want a drink of this special Co鈥?Cola instead?" he asked.She leered, looked left and then right. "Sure," she said. He handed her the cup and she ducked her head and took a drink."When they let you off here?" he said."Not soon enough," she said. "The horse鈥檚 ass that runs the place keeps us here half the night.""Well, we鈥檙e big boys," he said. "We get to stay up late."I opened my door and got out. He looked around. "Hey, where you going?"I shut the door. My eyes met the girl鈥檚 over the roof of the car, then I ducked my head in the window. "I鈥檝e got to go," I said. "I鈥檒l see you," and I started away from the car."Hey!" he yelled.But I didn鈥檛 turn around. He yelled a couple more times but I kept going. When I was far enough away I looked back. The girl was still standing at the Lincoln.I was hoping he鈥檇 be waiting outside the house when Igot home. He wasn鈥檛.A week later a notice came from Martin鈥檚 Drugs saying I had a Trailways package. It was a cardboard box wrapped in brown butcher鈥檚 paper and tied with string, light to carry but about the size of Shakespeare鈥檚coffin. When I got it home and opened it I found a new calfskin guitar case packed in newspaper and inside that was the Hummingbird. The guitar was in good shape, but the words Mr Good were scratched in tall letters on the back of the body. In the bottom of the case was a note:SonI wont you to have this a fine instrumint i bought it new in 1965. Maybe somday we can play together i can teech you some Bob wills. The only thing about it is i got no idee how the writing got on the back i woke up in a motel in oddessa tex 8 yeer ago and it was almost nite and their it was this is stil a good guitar.DadI hadn鈥檛 heard from him since. If he was alive he鈥檇 be sixty-three, and the older I got the more I wished I could see him. We鈥檇 have something to talk about now that I鈥檇 made every mistake he had.Once I was living with a psychologist and she started ribbing me after she saw how I took such good care of the Gibson. Better take Mr. Good to soccer practice, she鈥檇 say, or Mr. Good says he wants to order Chinese. If she hadn鈥檛 been so good-looking I wouldn鈥檛 have put up with her鈥攕he鈥檇 come home after counseling all day and make astrology charts on her clients and smoke pot. She finally drank enough coffee one morning to think to ask how I got the guitar. I told her the story about my dad."That鈥檚 cute," she said.I just stared at her."What is it?" she said.I shook my head."No, what is it?" she asked, almost hysterical."Nothing," I said. "Just looking at your hair."* * *It was cold. I was in Purcell鈥檚 lot, smoking, drinking coffee, half-listening to the Spanish talk all around me. I had seven hundred dollars in my socks鈥攁fter getting paid today I鈥檇have enough to get the Gibson back, and after Monday and Tuesday I鈥檇have enough to go back to Dallas鈥攁nd then suddenly an angry shout came from behind the trailer, then another. The lot quickly fell silent. Then the Spanish started up again and most of the men walked over and looked behind the trailer but as soon they did they started leaving, some running, and in about two minutes the place was deserted except for me.I kept watching the trailer, about fifteen yards away. Nothing.I couldn鈥檛 hear anything either but the hum of the arc lights. I didn鈥檛 know what to do. I was kind of scared, but I had to try to work that day, no matter what, so I decided to stay where I was and wait for Purcell to show up. I started to light another cigarette, then footsteps sounded on the gravel and a man staggered around the side of the trailer. He was clutching his side and when he saw me he said something in Spanish. He was big, at least three hundred pounds, and looked like a bear coming toward me. Then he just stopped and stood there. I could hear his breathing. He sank to his knees like a camel sitting down and fell over.For about a hundred and fifty dollars I would鈥檝e left. But there weren鈥檛 any philanthropists in the vicinity. I went over tohim. He had rolled onto his back and when he saw me standing over him he started talking in Spanish. He had a rip in the side of his thin jacket and there were dark stains around it. I took off my denim coat and kneeled down, and when he saw what I was doing he moved his hands and let me use the coat as a compress. Some warm blood soaked into the denim, but not much. He seemed more panicked than anything. He just kept on jabbering.Then I heard other voices. Two Mexicans were standing a few yards away, at the edge of the light."Habla ingles?" I called out."No much, no much," the taller of the two said.I got him to hold the jacket in place and right away he and the injured man started talking, arguing it sounded like. I ran the three blocks to the store where I made a point of buying my coffee every morning because I liked the way the clerk looked. I asked her to call 911."Sorry, the phone鈥檚 not public," she said."Are you kidding?" I said.She shook her head. "That鈥檚 the rule.""But a guy鈥檚 been knifed or something."She hesitated, then looked at her watch, a pink thing the size of a coaster. "My manager鈥檚 due here any minute now and he says you can鈥檛 let the phone thing get started or people鈥檒l be asking to use it all the time." She looked over my shoulder. "Could you move, please?"I stepped over but stayed at the counter and an old black guy in a baseball cap moved up and gave her numbers for a lottery ticket."So you鈥檙e not going to call?" I said."No," she said.I went outside and picked up the receiver on the pay phone on the side of the building and put it to my ear even though I knew it was dead. I asked two people going into the store if they had cell phones鈥攂oth shook their heads, though one had his in a holster on his belt. Then I ran back to the temp service because there wasn鈥檛 another payphone nearby and I didn鈥檛 know what else to do.Purcell was there. He had his headlights directed onto the scene and he stood in their beams next to the injured man and the two Mexicans who were squatting over him. The shorter one, who I could now see was an older man, was crying."I can鈥檛 have this kind of helling going on here," Purcell was saying."Mr. Purcell," I said.He jerked his head around and squinted into the headlights. "Hey, who鈥檚 there?" He recognized me. "So did you see what happened here?""No. I just tried to call an ambulance but I couldn鈥檛 find a phone."He waved like he was shooing a fly. "I checked him, he doesn 鈥檛 need one. It鈥檇 be a waste of the taxpayers鈥?money. All he鈥檚 got is a little lard sliced off." Then he put his hands on his hips and stared down at the man. He had on a white short sleeve shirt and a dark tie; I had never seen him in a coat, no matter the temperature. "Hey," he said loudly and all three Mexicans looked up at him and he spoke to them in broken Spanish. The tall one holding my jacket answered.According to Purcell鈥檚 translation: the two Mexicans who had stayed were from the same town in Mexico as the injured man, and the older one was his uncle or cousin or something.Two days ago the tall Mexican had heard that the injured man鈥攚ho looked at least thirty鈥攈ad gotten someone鈥檚 teenage daughter pregnant. The tall Mexican wasn鈥檛 sure who the girl was, but he鈥檇 heard there鈥檇 been a blow up with her father."I didn鈥檛 think there was anybody left who cared about that," Purcell said. He took out a pack of Juicy Fruit and put a stick in his mouth. He stared down at the man, his face a brown study.I crossed my arms and hugged myself. I was freezing."This has implications," Purcell said."We should probably call an ambulance," I said."We might do that," he said. "But we鈥檝e got to move him off this property first."I didn鈥檛 say anything, but Purcell jerked his head around like I had."Just because this pussel-gut decides to tap some Mexican cheerleader, I should have to pay double and triple on my liability insurance? And as for the police," he said, "what鈥檇 you think: Columbo鈥檚 gonna show up here at dawn?" He pulled a wallet-on-a-chain out of his back pocket and started speaking Spanish again. When he finished all three Mexicans nodded. The old one wiped his eyes with the back of his hand. Then Purcell took out two fifty-dollar bills and handed one to each of the two squatting men. They both spoke to the injured man, patted him on the shoulder, then stood up and left. Purcell bent over the injured man and slipped two bills into his pants pocket. He spoke to him and the man answered. Purcell replied, his voice angry. The man shook his head back and forth on the ground. Purcell started cursing in English. He turned to me, "Sack of shit says he can鈥檛 get up.""Huh," I said.Purcell gave the man a little kick in the hip and said something in Spanish. Then he grabbed the man鈥檚 arm and tried to haul him up. He didn鈥檛 budge. He was dead weight. Purcell dropped his arm. "All right," he said, "you get his shoulders and I鈥檒l get his legs," and he stepped around the man to his feet. I didn鈥檛 move.He waved. "Come on, let鈥檚 go.""That鈥檚 my coat there," I pointed."Yeah? So?" he said."It鈥檚 ruined," I said.His expression deadened as he figured it out, which took about two seconds. He shook his head and cursed again. He took out his wallet and handed over a fifty."I need a hundred more," I said.If either of us had been smoking the whole block would鈥檝e exploded. "Listen," he said, "I wouldn鈥檛 be paying anybody anything if I could speak enough Spanish to make these tacos understand if they don鈥檛 do what I say I鈥檒l tell the police whatever I want. But even though you鈥檙e a goddamn briar you understand me, don鈥檛 you?""The police might hassle me on your sayso," I said, "but that 鈥檚 about all they could do. And think about it. If I do end up talking to them, I鈥檓 such a briar I might let it slip how you run a straight cash business."He turned his back to me and started muttering. He stayed that way at least a half-minute. Then he turned back around holding out five twenties. His mouth was very tight.Lifting the man was like picking up one end of a rowboat full of water, if you鈥檝e ever done that. We carried him ten yards, rested, then went the last ten yards to the street. Purcell droppedthe man鈥檚feet and stayed bent over with his hands on his knees, huffing and puffing. He glanced up at me, then unhooked his key ring from his belt and tossed it and it hit the sidewalk right in front of me and I had to do a skip to keep it from hitting my feet. "Move my car up to the trailer," he said.I looked at the keys, then at him. "What?" I said."Do it, or I鈥檒l tell the cops you robbed me." He took his cell phone out of his back pocket."Why do you want me to do it?" I said."Just because I do," he said."Forget you," I said."All right," he said and punched a button on the phone, and that鈥檚 when I thought of the seven hundred dollars in my socks and how great it would look on a guy without a coat.The car was a Cadillac in name only. The last time it looked good Eddie Murphy was funny. I slid under the wheel, but didn 鈥檛 close the door so the rooflight would stay on and I could find things. The seat was too far up for me to fit my feet to the pedals, so I reached down to find the lever and my hand hit a bottle under the seat. It was a half-pint of Jack Daniels and all that was empty was the neck. I unscrewed the cap, bent over like I鈥檇 dropped the keys and took a drink, then sat up again. The glove box was missing its door, a cigar with an inch of dead ash was in the ashtray, a single porno playing card was in the passenger seat, a woman who looked like she was waiting for surgery to begin. I turned the card over: seven of clubs. I bent over and took another drink. I was thinking of the last time I saw my father鈥攐ne of these old boats always did that.I discovered the seat wouldn鈥檛 move, so I managed to get situated with my legs splayed out on either side of the steeringwheel. I shut the door, then pulled the car up in front of the trailer and cut the engine and the lights. I stuck the half-pint down the front of my pants. Then I looked in the rearview mirror: Purcell was still at the curb, under a streetlight, standing over the injured man talking and gesturing. It looked like he was haranguing a corpse.I leaned over to get at my pants pocket and took out the hundred and fifty and put it on the dash behind the steering wheel. I just couldn鈥檛abide the idea of having to think of Purcell everytime I played the Gibson. I would鈥檝e rather seen it in the hands of Campfire Girls.The pawn shop opened a half-hour before the liquor stores. I鈥檇 been waiting in a coffee shop across the street. I had the Gibson鈥檚 empty calfskin case and a Epiphone in its case. I was going to pawn the Epi which would give me the last fifty I needed to get the Gibson back, plus another sixty or seventy. That much would get me to Shreveport, and I figured I knew enough people in Dallas I could find someone who鈥檇 drive out and get me.I went in the pawn shop, the bell ringing over my head, and right away I noticed the Gibson wasn鈥檛 on its stand in the line of guitars that sat on a high shelf in the back. Holding the two cases I suddenly felt like an idiot in a Norman Rockwell painting. The empty one felt light enough to throw through the display window.The owner was still wearing his pea coat and was at the back of the long shotgun room behind a line of jewelry cases to my left. He came up front."It鈥檚 gone," he said. "Girl bought it last night not long after you came in."I set down the guitar cases."She paid cash so I don鈥檛 know who she was," he said.I asked him what she looked like."I wouldn鈥檛kick her out of bed for eating crackers," he said.I kept looking at him. I couldn鈥檛 believe he had said that. Then he gave a police blotter description of the girl鈥攜oung, long brown hair, skinny, pale, wearing jeans and a green jacket, said he wouldn鈥檛call her pretty exactly. I asked him, if she came back in, to give her my name and the place where I roomed and to tell her I鈥檇 pay to get the Gibson back. I said I鈥檇 pay him, too, for doing that."Once I tell her, you got no reason to pay me," he said."That鈥檚 true," I said."A twenty ought to take care of it," he said.I felt so beat I didn鈥檛 argue. I squatted down and lifted my pants leg to get at my sock. The bell rang and a guy in a dirty overcoat and came in and set down a kit bag and started pulling out barber tools. I stood up and the owner took my twenty. I picked up my guitar cases and left.Walking down the street, freezing, I realized I could take the money I had and buy a coat and a bus ticket and be back in Dallas by midnight or I could stay in Cincinnati and buy a coat and try to find the Gibson. I thought about it three seconds and decided to stay.I can play guitar pretty well. And I鈥檝e spent twenty years worth of afternoons in libraries killing time before gigs so I know the difference between Augustine of Hippo and all the other Augustines and I know that even if we do come up with a unified field theory it isn鈥檛 going to change a damn thing. But other than that, I wouldn鈥檛 take my own advice about anything.。

Unit4 I’ve tried all the means of transportation说 课 稿
Unit4 I’ve tried all the means of transportation说课稿我所讲授的这节课是中等职业学校英语教材《基础模块二》（高教版）第四单元的第一课时，现在我将简单介绍一下这节课的教学设计。

这些内容为整个单元学习活动做语言和知识的准备，也为学生学以致用的语言表达活动提供铺垫。
教学目标：1.知识目标：(1)学生能掌握有关交通方式的词汇和短语如：subway train light rail ferry plane comfortable dangerous cheap expensive等等。
（2）学生能掌握描述交通方式的句型。
如：What’s the transportation like...?How did you go there?Did you take...?2.能力目标：（1）学生能运用有关词汇与句型对交通方式进行简单的描述。
（2）学生能运用所学语言谈论某地交通状况并发表简单评论。
3.情感目标：（1）学生通过谈论交通工具以及回想自己的旅程能表达出喜悦心情。
