10 A London cab horseJerry Barker was a small man，but well－made and quick in all his movements．He lived in London and was a cab driver．Jerry's wife，Polly，was a little woman with smooth dark hair and dark eyes．His son，Harry，was nearly twelve years old， and was a tall，good－tempered boy．His daughter，Dolly，was eight，and she looked just like her mother．Jerry had his own cab and two horses，which he drove and groomed himself．His other horse was a tall，white animal called Captain．The next morning，Polly and Dolly came to see me．Harry had helped his father since early that morning and had already decided that I would be a good horse．Polly brought me a piece of apple and Dolly brought me some bread．'We'll call him Jack，after the old one，'said Jerry．'Shall we，Polly？''Yes，'she said．'I like to keep a good name going．'Captain went out in the cab all morning and I went out in the afternoon．Jerry took a lot of care to make sure that my col－lar and bridle were comfortable——and there was no bearing rein！We went to the cab stand where the other cabs were waiting for passengers，and took our place at the back of the last cab．Several of the other drivers came to look at me．'Too handsome，'saia one．'You'll find something wrong with him one morning．'Then a man in a grey coat and grey hat came up．His name was Grant，and he looked a happy，sensible kind of man．He had been longer on the cab stand than any of the other men，so they let him through to have a look at me，and waited for his opinion．He looked me all over very carefully，then said：'He's the right kind for you，Jerry．I don't care what you paid for him，he'll be worth it．'My first week as a cab horse was very hard．I was not used to London—the noise，the hurry，the crowds of horses，carts and carriages．But Jerry was a good driver and soon discovered that I was willing to work and do my best．He never used the whip on me，and we soon understood each other as well as a horse and man can do．Jerry kept his horses clean and gave us plenty of food and fresh water，and on Sundays werested．I never knew a better man than my new master．He was kind and good-tempered，like John Manly．Harry was clever at stable work and always wanted to do what he could．Polly and Dolly came in the morning to brush out the cab，and to wash the glass，while Jerry gave Captain and me a grooming．There was a lot of laughing and fun between them，which all helped to keep Captain and me happy． The family came early in the morning because Jerry did not like lateness．It always made him angry when people wanted him to drive hard because of their own lateness．One day，two wild-looking young men called to him．'Cabby！Hurry up，we're late for our train at Victoria．Get us there in time for the one o'clock train and we'll pay you double！''I will take you at the usual speed，gentlemen，'said Jerry．'Extra money doesn't pay for extra speed．'Larry's cab was standing next to ours．He opened the door and said，'I'm your man，gentlemen！My horse will get you there all right．'And as he shut them in，with a smile at Jerry，he said，'He always refuses to go faster than a trot！'Then，whipping his horse hard，he went off as fast as he could．Jerry patted me on the neck．'Extra money won't pay for that kind of thing，will it，Jack？'he said．Although he was against hard driving to please careless peo－ple，he always went at a fair speed and was not against going faster if there was a good reason．I remember one morning we were on the stand waiting for a passenger when a young man carrying a large suitcase went by．He stepped on a piece of apple which lay in the road，and fell down heavily．Jerry ran across the road and helped him up，then took him into a shop to sit him down．Some time later，the young man，looking white and ill，came out again and called Jerry，so we went across the road．'Can you take me to the South－Eastern Railway？'he said．'My fall has made me late，and it's very important that I don't miss the twelve o'clock train．I'll pay you extra if you can get me there in time．''We'll do our best，sir，'said Jerry，and helped him into the cab．It was always difficult to drive fast in the city in the middle were used to it，and no one was faster at getting through the carriages and carts，all moving at different speeds，going this way and that way．In and out，in and out we went，as fast as a horse can do it．And we got to the station just as the big clock showed eight minutes to twelve．'We're in time！'said the young man，happily．'Thank you，my friend，and your good horse，too．Take this extra money—''No，sir，said Jerry．'Thank you，but it isn't necessary．I'm glad we were in time—now hurry and catch your train．'When we got back to the cab stand，the other men were laughing because Jerry had driven hard to the train．'How much extra did he pay you，Jerry？'said one driver．'Nothing，'said Jerry．'He offered me extra but I didn't take it．If Jack and I choose to have a quick run now and then，that's our business and not yours．''You'll never be a rich man then，'said Larry．'Perhaps not，'said Jerry，'but I'll be a happy one！''And you，Larry，'added Mr Grant，'will die poor，because you spend too much money on new whips，beating your poor horse until it's exhausted—and then you have to buy another one．''well，I've never had good luck with my horses，'said Larry．'And you never will，'said Mr Grant．'Good Luck is very careful who she travels with，and mostly chooses those who are kind and sensible．That's my experience，anyway．'He turned round again to his newspaper，and the other men went back to their cabs．* * *Winter came early，with snow，rain or strong winds almost ev－ery day for weeks．Jerry sometimes went to a coffee－shop near the cab stand，and sometimes Dolly came with some hot soup that Polly had made for him．One cold windy day，Dolly was waiting for Jerry to finish his soup when a gentleman came towards us．Jerry started to give the soup bowl back to Dolly and was just goingto take off my warm cloth when the man said，'No，no，finish your soup，my friend．I can wait in the cab until you've finished．'Jerry thanked him，then came back to Dolly．'That's a real gentleman'Dolly，'he said．'He has time and thought for the comfort of a poor cab driver．'Jerry finished his soup，then we took the man to Clapham．After that，he took our cab several times，and often came to pat me．It was very unusual for anyone to notice a cab horse，and I was grateful．Another day，the gentleman saw a cart with two horses standing in the street．The driver was not with them and I don't know how long they had been standing there．However，they decided to move on a few steps．Suddenly，the cart driver ran out of a building and caught them．He seemed very angry and began to whip the horses hard，even beating them around the head．Our gentleman saw him and walked quickly across．'Stop that at once，or I'll call the police！'he said．The driver was drunk and he began to shout，but he stopped whipping the horses．Meanwhile，our gentleman wrote down the name and address that was on the side of the cart．'Why do you want that？'shouted the driver．Our gentleman didn't answer．He came back to the cab．'Many people have thanked me fof telling them how their horses have been used，'he told Jerry．'I wish there were more gentlemen like you，sir，said Jerry．'They're needed in this city．'10 在伦敦拉出租马车杰利·巴克尔是个小个儿男人，但他结实、健壮、动作敏捷。

++++++ Lesson 8 The Golden TouchThe children were dipping strawberries into chocolate.“They look yummy!”said Chip.“They taste yummy!”said Kippper.Kipper went to Biff’s room.He had chocolate on his hands.He got chocolate on everything he touched.“Go away,Kipper!”said Biff.“Y ou’re getting chocolate on everything,”said Chip.“I wish everything I touched turned into chocolate,”said Kipper. “That’s just greedy,’said Chip.Just then the magic key began to glow.It took the children into an adventure.They saw a girl sitting by a river.She was crying.“What’s the matter?”asked Biff.“Come with me and I’ll show you,”said the girl.”My name is Zoe.”Zoe took them to a palace.The children gasped.The palace was made of gold,and a gold tree stood outside.Zoe took the children inside.Everything was made of gold,even the food on the table!“My father is King Midas,”said Zoe sadly.”He made a wish that everything he touched turned intyo gold.Now his wish has come true!”“If the food turns into gold,how can he eat it?”asked Chip.“He can’t,”said Zoe.“And if he touches me ,I’ll turn into gold too.”Just then King Midas came in.Zoe hid behind Biff.”My father used to hug me,”she said, ’but he mustn’t do it anymore.”King Midas saw Floppy.”I love dogs,”he said. “Come here!”“Stop ！”called Chip. “Don’t tpouch that dog!”It was too late. King Midas patted Floppy and he turned into gold. “I’m so sorry ,” said King Midas.“I forgot that everything I touch turns into gold .I wish Icould turn him back into a real dog again .”“Who granted the wish?” asked Biff.“It was Dionysus,” said the king.“Then we must go and see him ,”said Biff. “and ask him to help.”Dionysus lived on Mount Olympus. It was a long way to walk, but at last King Midas and the children arrived.“Why have you come back to see me?” asked Dionysus.“I have come back to see me?” asked Dionysus“I have come to ask you to help me ,”said King Midas.“I want everything back the way it was ,”said King Midas. “My wish was silly.”“Y ou were foolish and greedy,”said Dionysus. “But you have learnt your lesson. Now go back and do what I tell you .”Dionysus told them to get water from the river. They had to pour itonto everything that had turned into gold.“It works!” said King Midas. “I’m so glad your dog is back.”“So am I!”said Kipper.King Midas gave Zoe a hug. “What a fool I have been,” he said.”“I’m glad I can hug you now.I will never ask for gold again!”King Midas looked at the children. “Thank you for helping us,”he said.The key began to glow. It was time to go home.“Hey! Why did you do that?”asked Kipper crossly.“To stop you from turning into chocolate,” laughed Chip.]Lesson 10 The palace statuesThe children put on a play called The Golden Statue. Chip was the statue. He had on a golden cloak and gold face paint.“I like this gold face paint,” said Anneena.The magic key began to glow.The magic took the children to a palace. They saw a man talking to a girl.“Don’t cry, Eva,” he said.“What’s the matter?”asked Biff.“This is my brother,Aran,”said Eva. “He guards the golden statues in the palace.”“The statues all have jewels,”said Aran. “But someone is stealing the jewels, and I must catch the robber.”Aran showed the children the golden statues. “The tobber might steal more jewels tonight,” he said. “What can I do?”Chip had an idea. “ Y ou can dress up as a golden statue,” he said. “ Then you can keep watch.”That night, Aran dressed up as a golden statue.“I’m glad we’ve got this gold face paint,” said Anneena.Aran went into the statue room .He stood in the deepest shadows.“Y ou need a jewel ,” said Eva. She gave him necklace, andwent out.Suddenly, a secret door slid open. Two men crept into the room. They took the rest of the jewels.One of the men spotted Aran.“I didn’t see that statue last night,”he said.“Let’s get that necklace.”Aran help his bredth as the man grabbed the necklace.At last, he heard a soft thud as the secret door slid shut.Aran called the children. He showed them the secret door. They all crept down some steps and dlong a shadowy tunnel. Suddenly, Biff tripped and fell.“Who’s there?” shouted the men.“Run!” whispered Nadim. “Hide under the steps.”A robber cm\ame up to the steps.He held up his lamp but the childrenwere as still as statunes.“There’s nobody here,” he said.The men went into a dusty room.The children followed them and peeped round the door. “There’ another door!” said Aran. Lt must lead into the palace garden. They might escape through that.”“l know what we can do,” said Namdim, and he told the others his plan.“That’s a good idea,” said Eva.Aran maiched stiffly into the dusty foom.“Give me back my necklace!” he roared, in a voice like thunder.The robbers jumped up.“Help! The statue is alive!” they sceamed. They raced out of the garden door……and ran right into the guards!The next day, Aran and Eva gave the children a golden statue.“Thank you for helping us,” they said . The magic key began to giow.The magic took the children home.“The statue looks just like Eva,” said Nadim.“Y es,”said Chip. “And Anneena looks just like the statue!”。

1b典范英语第10课Lesson 10: A Memorable EventLast summer, I had the opportunity to participate in a volunteer trip to a rural village. It was an incredibly memorable event that I will cherish forever. The purpose of the trip was to provide aid to the villagers and improve their living conditions.We started our journey early in the morning, and after a long drive, we finally arrived at the village. The village was small and surrounded by beautiful green fields. The houses were made of bamboo and thatched roofs. The villagers warmly welcomed us, and we were immediately struck by their kindness and hospitality.Our first task was to help build a new school for the village children. The existing school was in a dilapidated state, and the children had to study under the trees. We worked together, carrying bricks, mixing cement, and laying the foundation. It was hard work, but the satisfaction of building something that would benefit the children was incredibly rewarding.In the evenings, we would gather around a bonfire and join the villagers in singing and dancing. They taught us their traditional songs and danced to the beat of the drums. It was a magical experience, witnessing their joy and happiness despite their difficult living conditions.Another aspect of the trip was to provide medical aid to the villagers. We set up a makeshift clinic where we would treat the sick and provide them with necessary medicines. Many of the villagers suffered from different ailments due to lack of access to proper healthcare. It was heart-wrenching to see their suffering, but at the same time, it motivated us to work harder to help them.One particular incident during the trip stands out in my memory. A young boy named Rajiv had a severe infection in his leg. He had been suffering for weeks, unable to walk or play with other children. Our team of doctors and nurses worked tirelessly to treat him, cleaning the wound and providing him with antibiotics. Over the course of a few days, we saw a remarkable improvement in his condition. Seeing him smile and run around with other children filled my heart with indescribable happiness.As the time to leave the village approached, we couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness. The bond we had formed with the villagers was strong, and we knew we would miss them dearly. We had not only provided aid but had also built lasting relationships.Reflecting on this memorable event, I realize how fortunate we are to have the resources and opportunities that many others lack. This trip not only made me appreciate what I have but also sparked a desire to continue giving back to society.In conclusion, the volunteer trip to the rural village was an unforgettable experience that touched my heart. It taught me the value of compassion, hard work, and the joy of making a difference in someone's life. I will always cherish the memories and carry the lessons learned with me, as I continue to strive for a better world.。
