一对富豪兄弟用一张面值百万英镑的现钞打赌,看这张钞票究竟会给人带来无尽的财富还是只是一张一文不值的“小纸片”。
很快,从美国来的亚当进入了富豪兄弟的视线。
这个人的船在海上触礁沉没,他靠给其他船只做工来抵押船票才到了英国。
现在他身无分文、饥饿难忍,这样一个穷人是再适合不过的人选了。
于是亚当被请进了富豪家中。
富豪兄弟给了亚当百万钞票,并和他约定在一个月的时间里,亚当可以任意使用。
但一个月后他必须把钞票原样不动地还给富豪,这样他可以得到富豪们为他提供的任何一份他想从事的工作。
亚当糊里糊涂地接受了约定。
亚当无论去吃饭、购买服装都会因衣衫褴褛遭到人们的白眼。
但当他拿出这张钞票时,人们不但向他大献殷勤,甚至连相关的费用都可以减免,因为在他们看来亚当是富豪,而且根本没有人可以给一张百万面值的钞票找零。
很快报纸上刊登出美国一位有着着装怪癖的百万富翁光临英国的消息,一时间亚当成为上流社会的焦点,无论是公爵、富商都以和亚当交际为荣,年轻姑娘们更是为了吸引亚当的注意而彼此间争风吃醋,亚当成为英国尽人皆知的人物。
但很快亚当陷入困境中。
先是他欠下的债越来越多,之后饭店服务员和他开玩笑,将百万钞票藏了起来,瞬间股市大跌,人们相传亚当是骗子,要债的人挤满了整个饭店……好在一个月的期限终于到了,亚当如释重负地将钞票还给了富豪兄弟。
但亚当并没有接受他们为他安排工作,因为经历了大起大落,亚当早已厌倦了人们对金钱的追逐。
尽管失去了金钱,但他却得到了许多。

百万英镑英语段落一:They saw many honest faces go by that were not intelligent enough;many that were intelligent,but not honest enough;many that were both,but the possessors were not poor enough,or,if poor enough,were not strangers.There was always a defect,until I came along;but they agreed that I filled the bill all around;so they elected me unanimously,and there I was now waiting to know why I was called in.They began to ask me questions about myself,and pretty soon they had my story.Finally they told me I would answer their purpose.I said I was sincerely glad,and asked what it was.Then one of them handed me an envelope,and said I would find the explanation inside.I was going to open it,but he said no;take it to my lodgings,and look it over carefully,and not be hasty or rash.I was puzzled,and wanted to discuss the matter a little further,but they didn’t;so I took my leave,feeling hurt and insulted to be made the butt of what was apparently some kind of a practical joke,and yet obliged to put up with it,not being in circumstances to resent affronts from rich and strong folk.百万英镑英语段落二:When I was twenty-seven years old,I was a mining-broker’s clerk in San Francisco,and an expert in all the details of stock traffic.I was alone in the world,and had nothing to depend upon but my wits and a clean reputation;but these were setting my feet in the road to eventual fortune,and I was content with the prospect.百万英镑英语段落三:My time was my own after the afternoon board,Saturdays,and I was accustomed to put it in on a little sail-boat on the bay.One day I venturedtoo far,and was carried out to sea.Just at nightfall,when hope was about gone,I was picked up by a small brig which was bound for London.It was a long and stormy voyage,and they made me work my passage without pay,as a common sailor.When I stepped ashore in London my clothes were ragged and shabby,and I had only a dollar in my pocket.Thismoney fed and sheltered me twenty-four hours.During the next twenty-four I went without food and shelter.百万英镑英语段落四:You know,I even kept my old suit of rags,and every now and then appeared in them,so as to have the old pleasure of buying trifles,and being insulted,and then shooting the scoffer dead with the million-pound bill.But I couldn’t keep that up.The illustrated papers made the outfit so familiar that when I went out in it I was at once recognized and followed by a crowd,and if I attempted a purchase the man would offer me his whole shop on credit before I could pull my note on him.百万英镑英语段落五:About the tenth day of my fame I went to fulfil my duty to my flag by paying my respects to the American minister.He received me with the enthusiasm proper in my case,upbraided me for being so tardy in my duty,and said that there was only one way to get his forgiveness,and that was to take the seat at his dinner-party that night made vacant by the illness of one of his guests.I said I would,and we got to talking.It turned out that he and my father had been schoolmates in boyhood,Yale students together later,and always warm friends up to my father’s death.So then he required me to put in at his house all the odd time I might have to spare,and I was very willing,of course.百万英镑英语段落六:“Right,it was the What Cheer;went there at two in the morning,and had a chop and coffee after a hard six-hours grind over those Extensionpapers,and I tried to persuade you to come to London with me,and offered to get leave of absence for you and pay all your expenses,and give you something over if I succeeded in making the sale;and you would not listen to me,said I wouldn’t succeed,and you couldn’t afford to lose the run of business and be no end of time getting the hang of things again when you got back home.And yet here you are.How odd it all is!How did you happen to come,and whatever did give you thisincredible start?”百万英镑英语段落七:We had a lovely time;certainly two of us had,Miss Langham and I.I was so bewitched with her that I couldn’t count my hands if they went above a double sequence;and when I struck home I never discovered it,and started up the outside row again,and would have lost the game every time,only the girl did the same,she being in just my condition,you see;and consequently neither of us ever got out,or cared to wonder why we didn’t;we only just knew we were happy,and didn’t wish to know anything else,and didn’t want to be interrupted.And I told her–I did,indeed–told her I loved her;and she–well,she blushed till her hair turned red,but she liked it;she said she did.Oh,there was never such an evening!Every time I pegged I put on a postscript;every time she pegged she acknowledged receipt ofit,counting the hands the same.Why,I couldn’t even say“Two for his heels”without adding,“My,how sweet you do look!”and she would say,“Fifteen two,fifteen four,fifteen six,and a pair are eight,and eight are sixteen–do you think so?”–peeping out aslant from under her lashes,you know,so sweet and cunning.Oh,it was just too-too!百万英镑英语段落一:他们见过许多诚实的面孔,但不够聪明;见过很多聪明的面孔,但不够诚实;还见过既聪明又诚实的面孔,但是拥有者要么不够穷,要么不是陌生人。

百万英镑的英⽂简介三篇 篇⼀:百万英镑英⽂简介 The Million Pound Note This time I want to talk about a very famous short story written by Mark Twain---------“The Million Pound Note”. Referring to Mark Twain, you must feel familiar, because we must have read his works before. I still remember the article “ The Bite Events on the Train” in our textbook when I’m in the middle school. What touched me most at that time were his ironic words. Yes, he is a great humorist, novelist, writer and orator in America in nineteenth century. During his 40 years’ writing career, he created dozens of short or long stories. This story tells about a poor but honest American Adam Hey. When he was wandering in the street of London, he was given by two billionaires a letter, in which he surprisedly found a £1,000,000 pound bank-note. Later he got to know that the two billionaires who were brothers had made a bet about the results after he got a one million-pound note at once. One of them thought the note wound count for nothing to the poor man because he could not prove that the money was his own while the other considered just as the opposite. Dramatically, the plot went just out of my expectation. Herry went to a restaurant to have dinner first. The manager was mean to him at the beginning but his attitude changed quickly when Herry took out the note and asked for change. Faced with a millionaire, the manager apologized again and again and obsequiously told Herry that he didn’t need to pay for the bill right now. So Herry managed to have a free dinner. Then similarly, Herry went to a clothing shop and got a suit of clothes costing him nothing. Like the plot above, people are curious of such a rich man and tried every means to cozy up to him, from free food, free clothes to free accommodation. At the same time, his social status was becoming higher and higher and finally higher than most dukes. Apart from that, he later got a beautiful wife and 200,000 pounds of bank interest. I can imagine a bright future was waiting for him. The writing style of this story is so humorous. Mark Twain used hyperbole describing how our hero defeated snobbishness repeatedly. What I appreciate most is the detailed description of different people’s ridiculous actions before one million pounds, vivid, funny, ironic and humorous, which forms a Caricature. In terms of the theme, it is apparent that the author wanted to denounce the overflowing mammonism in the society. Even now it gives us an impressive lesson. Yes, I cannot deny the importance of money to a person who wants to survive. We won’t live without money, with which we get food, clothes, house and many other necessities. But we must know that there are many things which can’t be bought with money such as love or friendship. So in my opinion, money may be important to us, but not the most important. We need to build up the correct sense of money. To sum up, this story is a really good work of Mark Twain. The lesson I’ve learnt from it makes me want to be an honest man sincerely and lets me not to worship money too much. I begin to regret not reading it earlier. 篇⼆:百万英镑英⽂版 Studying aboard Nowadays, there appears an undeniable fact that an increasing number of Chinese students choose to study aboard. This phenomenon has drawn considerable public attention. Undoubtedly, there are a great many advantages of studying overseas. First and foremost, living and studying aboard offers students a different perspective of the world. By communicating with their counterparts from various counties and areas international students can get access to different ideas and values which will surely broaden their vision and eich their experience. In addition, it provides Chinese students a precious opportunity to get insights into different cultures and improve their second-language skills. What’s more, overseas experience is likely to bring more job opportunities to Chinese students when they are hunting jobs at home. As far as I’m concerned, if possible, I will study aboard. In my view, despite its great expenses, studying aboard is rewarding. 篇三:百万英镑的英⽂简介 In 1903, American seaman Hey Adams (Gregory Peck) is stranded penniless in England and gets caught up in an unusual wager between two wealthy, eccentric brothers, Oliver (Ronald Squire) and Roderick Montpelier (Wilfrid Hyde-White).
