There was a growing tendency of terrorism in this terrirory. The local people were terrified by terror. The government tended to have a tentative negotiation with those terrorists. It hired Samuel as a temporary worker to do the job. Samuel was an ordinary university student. He liked disco music tempo. He liked to play tennis. He could fix the broken terminals of the computer. He needed to recite many technical terms to pass his exams at the end of this term. His landlord collected the tenant’s rent monthly. Because his contract had been terminated, Samuel had to move to a tent to stay over. The job was dangerous in terms of security, but he could earn some money. Money tempted him to take a risk. 1,000 dollars was a big bemptation. Samuel started off. He was rather tense and his tense muscles exposed this. His mind was full of terrible imaginations. then he drove a car to the bus terminal where he would meet those terrorists. The negotiation went well. Samuel felt relaxed on the way home. He drove his car at a terrific speed and at the same time he enjoyed the terrific view. But suddenly his car collided with another one. Samuel was sent to hospital. He was as weak as a tender flower. His tender mother tended him patiently.
这块地域上恐怖主义有增长的趋势。当地人民被恐怖惊吓着。政府趋向于同那些恐怖分子进行试探性的谈判。它雇佣了塞弥儿作为临时工来做这事。塞弥儿是一名普通的大学生。他喜欢迪斯科音乐的节奏。他喜欢打网球。他能够修理坏了的电脑终端。他需要背诵许多工业术语来通过这学期期末的考试。他的房东每个月收房客的房租。因为他的合同已经被终止,塞弥尔不得不搬到一个帐篷里过夜,这份工作依据安全性来讲是危险的,但它可以挣一些钱。金钱诱惑他去冒险。一千美圆可是一个大诱惑。塞弥儿出发了,他相当紧张。他绷紧的肌肉泄露了这一点,他的脑袋里满是可怕的想象。然后他驾驶一辆汽车去公交终点站,在那里他将会合那些恐怖分子。谈判进展顺利。一项协议的签定有助于缓和紧张局势。塞弥儿回家的路上感觉轻松。他以极快的速度驾驶着车子并同时欣赏着极好的风景。但突然他的车同另一辆车相撞了。塞弥儿被送往医院。他像脆弱的花儿那样虚弱。他那温柔的母亲耐心的照料他。

Some students were busy writing thesis, which was the requirement to graduate and gain diploma. They planed to go to a thermal spring the next day for a break. But it snowed therefore the plan was cancelled. The snow was thick but the ice was too thin for skating. So they went to a theatre to see a drama. The theme for the drama was forgiveness. A boy stole an old man’s wallet. The thief was forgiveness. A boy stole an old man’s wallet. The thief was caught, and other people wanted to send him to the police station. The old man agreed with them at first. thought better of it, he gave up. That is, he decided to set the boy free. The old man had thought all the details over before he spoke. He said, "I don’t want to put him into prison for his theft, for one thing he was too young, for another, I believe that he would mend his ways." The old man’s forgiveness was not theoretical but practial. Thanks to the old man, the boy avoided being punished. He thought of the old man as his lifesaver. Thereafter he became a new man. Thanksgiving Day was coming, thereby the boy decided to visit the old man. The old man got a fever and was in therapy at that time. The thermometer read 39 degrees. He felt thirsty all the time. The boy brought some textiles and a bundle of roses as Thanksgiving gifts to the old man. There were some thorns on them. Having enjoyed the drama, the students began to debate. The thesis of the debate was about forgiveness.
一些学生忙着写论文这是他们毕业取得文凭的必要条件。他们计划着第二天去一个热的温泉休息休息。但是天下雪了,因此计划被取消了。雪很厚但是冰很薄,无法溜冰。于是他们去了一家戏院看戏。戏的主题是关于宽恕。一个男孩偷了一个老人的钱包。小偷被抓住了,其他人要送他去警察局。老人起先同意他们。重新考虑后他放弃了。就是说,他决定放了那男孩。老人在开口说话前已经仔细考虑了所有细节。他说"我不想因为他的偷窃行为把他送进监狱,一则他太年轻了,二来我相信他会改过自新。"老人的宽恕不是理论上的而是行动上的。幸亏老人的宽恕男孩才避免了头!K?牙先丝醋魉?木让?魅恕4撕笏?匦伦鋈恕8卸鹘诳斓搅耍?虼四泻⒕龆ò莘美先耍?先四鞘闭?诜⒏呱詹⒃谥瘟浦小N露燃频亩潦??9度。他一直感到口渴。男孩送来了一些纺织品和一束玫瑰作为感恩节礼物送给老人,花上有一些刺。欣赏完戏剧后,学生们开始辩论。辩论的主题就是关于宽恕。

The older brother behaved as though he was the new king, He threatened to knife his younger brother if he got in his way. When he said that, he was as fierce as a tiger. The queen was a thoughtful woman, everyone wanted to stay with her. She often used different threads to sew different ties for her sons. Keeping their rooms tidy was her pleasure. One night, the queen woke up because of a sore throat, It was quiet; all she could hear was the tick of the clock, The queen took a walk, but She saw a terrible thing. The older prince killed the younger one by thrusting a knife throughout his his chest. The older prince threw away the knife out of the window. Then he wiped blood on his thumb away. The queen stood on the threshold, shocked. She was thoughtful for a while. At first, she wanted to call the guards, but on second thoughts she changed her mind. She didn’t dare to do anything thoughtless, otherwise she would lose her second son. It began to thunder and rain. So she went back her bedroom with tears. The next day, the guards made a thorugh search for the lethal weapon, but didn’t find it, It became an unsettled case. But the queen often thrilled to the memory of it. She had to watch the sea tide to calm down.
一个王国因为它的明智的老国王而繁荣。老国王死后,他的两个儿子都想获得王位。对他俩而言这可是令人激动的事情。哥哥的行为举止好象他是新国王一般。他恐吓要用刀刺死他的弟弟,如果他挡道的话。当他说话的时候,象一只老虎那样凶狠。王后是个体贴的女子,每个人都愿意同她接近。她常常用不同的线给儿子缝制不同的领带。保持他们的房间整洁是她的快乐。一天晚上,王后因为咽喉痛而醒来。夜很静,她只能听到时钟的滴答声。王后散了一会儿步。但她看到了一桩可怕的事情:大王子用一把刀刺穿了小王子的胸膛。大王子把刀扔到窗外去。然后他擦掉拇指上的血迹,王后震惊的站在门槛上。她认真思考了一会儿。起先,她想叫卫兵,但是一转念又改变了主意。她不敢做任何轻率的事情,否则她将失去第二个儿子。天开始打雷下雨。于是她含着泪回到了她的卧室。第二天,卫兵进行彻底的搜查来寻找凶器,但没有找到。这成了一桩悬案。但王后常常因为会议而毛骨悚然,她不得不观看海潮来平静自己。

The two teams began to work in no time after the bell rang, At one time, the competition began. From the time being, Team 1 preceded Team 2. Team 2 pursued Team 1 at full tilt. Suddenly a shelf titled and all the timbers fell off. Team 1 had to put them in order. With the timely accident Team 2 finished its part ahead of time. After the work, Alexander felt tired. His shoes were too small for him and he felt tight. He decided to go to a bar. At no time would Alexander smoke. He drank at times. The waitress gave him a bottle of wine sealed tight. He took out of the money from his tight pocket and paid the bill. Besides, he tipped the waitress 2 dollars. Then Alexander took his time to enjoy the wine. He was a little drunk and nearly tipped the table. He woke up in time. Alexander left the bar. He bought some tinned-food for his families. The tins were made of tin. Alexander reached home on time. He went upstairs to see his baby. The baby got a cold yesterday. It took one pill of medicine at a time for three times a day. It looked timid today. Alexander tipped the tiny baby with the tip of his finger. Both of them smiled.

Also, she transferred her cellphone to her brother. At Jamaica, Harriet transferred from the train to a bus. Then she must tramp over a mountain. It was a tough task.

She and some tramps found the trail of rabbit. From the top of the mountain, Harriet saw a tragic scene, a traffic accident. A truck collided a car then flew away.

This morning,the Broadcasting Station interrupted its normal transmissions to bring the audience a piece of special news flash. The police arrested a spy. The spy was a treasurer working in a big company. The transition from a good man to a spy was a complicated course. The man took his transistor everywhere with him. In fact, the transistor had been transformed into transmitter. By using a transformer, he translated the codes into translation he could read. Then he transmitted useful information back. Because of his crime, the country lost a lot of treasure. The man committed the crime of treason. His purpose was transparent, for money, He would have a bone-marrow transplant and needed a lot of money. But he couldn’t transform his plan into reality. His sweet dream was transient. The police "visited" him soon, The treasurer trembled with tremendous fear. He crashed a transparent tray on the floor. The police sent him to the police station by some special transport. The man tried to jump into a trench half way but failed. The transport was rather successful. By clever questioning the police trapped him into making a confession. And finally the two countries signed a treaty to solve the problem.
今天早晨,广播站打断了它日常的播送,给听众发布了一条特别新闻报道。警方逮捕了一名间谍,间谍是一家大公司工作的财务主管。从一个好人到一名间谍的转变是一个复杂的过程。这个人走到哪儿都带着他的晶体管收音机,实际上晶体管收音机已经被改造成了一台发报机。通过运用一个变压器,他将密码翻译成他读得懂的译文。然后他将有用的信息传送回去。因为他的罪行,国家损失了大量的珍宝。这个人犯了判国罪。他的动机很明显,为了钱。 他将做骨髓移植手术,必须要一大笔钱。但他没有办法将他的计划变为事实。他的美梦很短暂。警察很快拜访了他。财务主管因为巨大的恐惧而发抖。他打碎了一只透明的盘子,警察用特殊的运输工具押他去警察局,这个人在半路上试图跳进一个沟渠但失败了。运送还算比较成功。警察用聪明的提问使他中圈套坦白了一切。最后两个国家签订了一项条约来解决这个问题。

Isaac was a high school student. Every morning, he went to school on the tube. The tube roared in the tunnel quickly. The first class that morning was music. He played a tune on the violin. The second one was English. The students gave English speeches in turn. And the teacher asked them to turn in two essays every month. In the afternoon, the students visited a museum first. They saw the first ship to use turbine to propel forward in the world. Then they had a tug of war. Isaac tucked his shirt into his trousers then tugged the rope all out. He tumbled several times but he had fun. In the evening, Isaac took a good bath in the tub then tried on a new shirt. He recollected last weekend. He and his father went to a store. Isaac tried out the TV set before buying. He found that the TV tube had broken. They chose another good one. The television was too heavy they took carring it home. They had delicious turkey that night. Isaac was stopped recollecting by the rest bell. He lay down on the bed. He turned in his favoritestation to listen to it. In order not to disturb his roommates, he turned down the radio. The news said a hurricane was coming and the sea was turbulent. But Isaac worried about another thing, that is, the tuition was rising every year. He wanted to do a part-time job to lighten his parents’ burden. He was a good boy in truth.
艾萨克是一名中学生。每天早晨他乘地铁去上学。地铁在隧道中呼啸飞驰。那天的第一堂课是音乐,他用小提琴演奏了一首曲子。第二堂课是英语。学生依次进行了英语演讲,老师要求他们每个月上缴两篇散文。下午学生们首先参观了博物馆。他们参加了世界上第一艘用涡轮机推进的轮船。然后他们进行了一场拔河比赛。艾萨克卷起衬衣塞进裤子。然后用尽全力猛拉绳子。他摔倒了几次但很开心。晚上,艾萨克在澡盆里好好洗了个澡,然后试穿了一件新衬衣。他回忆起上个周末。他和父亲去买一台新的电视机。在购买之前,艾萨克试验电视机的性能。他发现电视显象管坏了,他们挑了另一台好的。电视太重了,他两把它扛回家。那天晚上他们吃了可口的火鸡肉。休息的铃声打断了艾萨克的回忆,他躺到床上去休息,他收听他最爱的电台里说飓风就要来了,大海非常狂暴。但艾萨克担忧的是另一件事,即学费每年都在上涨,他想打工来减轻父母的负担。他的确是个好男孩。

A factory turned out ten thousand automobiles each year. Its turnover was quick. Its turnover was pretty high. A worker in this factory worked hard. His wife gave birth to twins. She was a typical housewife. Every night after supper, the family turned off the light then turned on the television. The husband always asked the wife to turn the TV up a little because he could not hear very clearly. On weekends, the couple took turns to look after the twins. When the twins were 8 years old, their parents decided to turn over the children to a tutor, It’s maybe a good idea to turn to a professional tutor. On the day the tutor turned up, the weather forecast said that the highest was 10 degrees, but it turned out to be 5 degrees. The tutor drove a car.
