许国璋英语第二册《第二课》（一）课文：THE GOLDEN TOUCHLong, long ago there lived in Greece a king whose name was Midas. He was a greedy man and loved gold better than anything else in the world.One day he asked the gods to give him still more gold. The gods decided to punish him and said: “ Very well; in the morning everything that you touch will become gold.”Midas was overjoyed when he heard this. “ I shall be the richest man in the world,” he said to himself.He got up early next morning. When he touched his bed, it turned to gold. He began to dress, and his clothes became gold. Midas was delighted.Midas loved flowers and kept a beautiful garden. He went into the garden to look at his flowers. The day was fine, the sun was bright and the roses were lovely. The king picked one of them, but it turned to gold in his hand. He picked another, and the same thing happened. He was sorry that the flowers changed as soon as he touched them, for he loved their rich colours.The king went to have his breakfast. He took a cup of milk, but it immediately turned to gold. Then he took a piece of bread, and that also changed into gold. Midas now began to feel unhappy. It was good to be the richest man in the world, but he was hungry, and he could not eat or drink gold.Midas went out into the garden again. His little daughter was there. When she saw her father, she ran up to him. King Midas was very fond of his daughter and he kissed her tenderly. Then and there she turned into a golden statue.Midas was now very unhappy. He went into his palace. His eyes filled with tears, and he begged the gods to take away the Golden Touch.“ I was very foolish to love gold so much,” he said, “ Take all my gold and give me back my daughter.”“Go,” said the gods, “ and wash your hands in the river near your garden, and the water will take away the Golden Touch.”Midas went to the river and washed his hands. Then he ran quickly to the golden statue of his little girl. He kissed her again and she changed back into his pretty little daughter.Midas never forgot this lesson. He knew now that gold did not bring happiness.（二）课文译文点金术很久很久以前，在希腊居住着一位名叫迈达斯的国王。

许国璋英语第二册第四课课文、对话、练习、答案许国璋电视英语教学第二册《第四课》（一）课文：1)课文原文：AN OUTINGWe were discussing where to go for an outing during the spring holidays. Some suggested the Guanting Reservoir. Others wanted to see the Great Wall. Then someonesaid: “ Why not go back to Anzhuang for a visit?”At this we all cheered. Of course, we would revisit that beautiful mountain village on the banks of the Yongding River!The place was dear to us all. We had gone there the year before to plant trees in the surrounding mountains. We had formed close ties with the villagers.So early next morning we were off to Anzhuang on the 7:30 train. It was a fine day in April. Everyone was in high spirits. We could hardly sit still, for there were so manyinteresting sights outside the windows. We saw new factories and well-cultivated fieldsall along the line. At Shijingshan we passed the huge steel mill and the power plant. Then suddenly we saw the green Yongding River in the valley below. Our hearts gave a leap, for we knew that in a few minutes we would be with our friends at Anzhuang again.They were overjoyed to see us. The old villagers kept asking how we were. They were pleased to see how much stronger some of us had become. Then some old friends of ours took us to see what they had achieved. New houses, larger schools, more sheep,more pigs and chickens, more cows and horses – everywhere we saw signs of prosperity.Then we climbed the mountains. The villagers showed us the trees we had planted. Wewere happy to see that most of them were growing well. At one place we found someyoung people digging pits. They were getting things ready for this year’s tree-planting.We all joined them in the work.But the time soon came for us to return. It was getting dark.We told our friends that we would soon come back to plant trees again.Back in the train, we told each other what a wonderful time we had had that day.“An outing like this is certainly more exciting than picnicking in t he Summer Palace,”one comrade said.“ Or on the Great Wall,” another added.They spoke for us all.一次效游我们正在讨论在春假期间去哪里郊游。

许国璋英语第二册《第八课》（一）课文：1)课文原文：THE GREAT PYRAMIDThe kings of ancient Egypt planned strong tombs to keep their bodies safe after death and to hold their treasures. Over these tombs huge stone pyramids were built.There are over 80 pyramids in Egypt, but the Great Pyramid is the largest of all.The Great Pyramid was built nearly five thousand years ago for a king called Khufu.It is located on the west bank of the Nile River, not far from Cairo. In fact, all thepyramids along the Nile are on its west bank. The ancient Egyptians compared the rising of the sun to the beginning of life and the setting of sun to the end of life. This is whytheir dead were buried on the west bank of the Nile.古埃及的国王计划坚固的墓葬，以保护他们的尸体在死亡后保存他们的财宝。

在这些坟墓上建造了巨大的石头金字塔。

埃及有超过80座金字塔，但大金字塔是最大的金字塔。

大金字塔是在五千年前为一位名叫胡夫的国王建造的。

它位于尼罗河西岸，离开罗不远。

事实上，尼罗河上所有的金字塔都在它的西岸。

许国璋电视英语教学第二册《第五课》（一）课文：1)课文原文：A HIGH SCHOOL TEACHERMrs. Cox teaches English in a high school in San Francisco, a big city on the West Coast of the United States. She had wanted to become a teacher when she was young.She has taught eight years now and always enjoyed her work.A school day at Mrs. Cox’s high school is divided into six periods of one hour each.Mrs. Cox teaches five of these six periods. During her “free “ period from 2 to 3 pm. Mrs.Cox has to meet with parents, order supplies, make out examinations, check assignments, and take care of many other things. So Mrs. Cox works steadily from the time she arrivesat school in the morning until she leaves for home late in the afternoon, and her “free”periods isn’t really free at all.An English teacher usually divides her time among three subjects: language (grammar, punctuation, spelling, etc. ), composition, and literature. Mrs. Cox’s favorite subject isliterature, and her most exciting classes are those on the literature of Black Americans.For Mrs. Cox, like most of the students in her school, is Black.In her sixth period today, Mrs. Cox taught a poem by a well-known Black writer in the United States. She wrote the poem on the blackboard and read it aloud.No sooner had she finished reading the poem than student’s questions began pouring in. One boy said the poem was heartbreakingly sad. Another student, a girl, saidshe had read a book by the same writer, but she wasn’t able to enjoy it as much as hermother did, and she didn’t know why. A third, a keen viewer of TV theatre, recognized aphrase in the poem which had been used as the title of a recent play.As she answered the questions, Mrs. Cox made sure that her students understood every line of the poem. She asked them to discuss if the poem contained any message.The discussion became so lively that no one wanted to stop when the bell rang. Somesaid there was no message, some said there was, some said it didn’t really matter, andthe class ended at that.As she drove home, Mrs. Cox thought about the class she had just left. Today she could feel good about what she had accomplished as a teacher. Not one of her studentslooked bored. Every one of them seemed interested in the poem. Once they started totalk, they forgot about the time. She did not have to make them learn; she only had toanswer their questions and to guide the discussion. This, she thought to herself, is whatteaching is all about!2)原文译文：一位高中教师考克斯夫人在美国西海岸一座大城市旧金山的一所高中教英语。

许国璋的英语科普知识Xu Guozhang is a renowned Chinese scientist and science communicator who has dedicated his life to promoting scientific literacy and popularizing scientific knowledge among the general public. As an accomplished physicist and a passionate educator, Xu has made significant contributions to advancing scientific understanding and fostering a culture of scientific curiosity in China.One of Xu's key strengths is his ability to translate complex scientific concepts into accessible and engaging language. He firmly believes that science should not be confined to the ivory tower but should be shared with everyone, regardless of their educational background or scientific expertise. Through his extensive writing, public lectures, and media appearances, Xu has successfully bridged the gap between the scientific community and the general public, making scientific knowledge both understandable and relevant to people's everyday lives.Xu's expertise in popular science covers a wide range of topics, from the fundamental principles of physics and the mysteries of theuniverse to the latest advancements in biotechnology and the implications of artificial intelligence. His engaging and thought-provoking presentations have captivated audiences across China, and his books and articles have become essential reading for those seeking to deepen their understanding of the natural world and the scientific processes that shape it.One of Xu's most notable contributions to popular science is his ability to contextualize scientific discoveries and their real-world applications. He has a keen understanding of the social, economic, and environmental implications of scientific progress, and he often explores these connections in his work. For example, in his book "The Future of Energy," Xu delves into the challenges and opportunities presented by the transition to renewable energy sources, highlighting the technological breakthroughs, policy decisions, and societal shifts that will be necessary to achieve a sustainable energy future.Xu's passion for science communication is not limited to his own work; he is also a tireless advocate for promoting scientific literacy more broadly. He has been instrumental in the development of science education initiatives in China, working with policymakers, educators, and community organizations to ensure that students of all ages have access to high-quality science learning opportunities. Through his leadership and mentorship, Xu has inspired a newgeneration of science communicators to follow in his footsteps, further expanding the reach and impact of popular science in China.Moreover, Xu's influence extends beyond the borders of China. He has established collaborations with international scientific organizations and has participated in global forums on science communication and public engagement. By sharing his experiences and insights with colleagues around the world, Xu has contributed to the global effort to bridge the gap between science and society, fostering a more scientifically literate and engaged global citizenry.One of the hallmarks of Xu's approach to popular science is his ability to make complex topics both engaging and intellectually stimulating. He has a remarkable talent for breaking down intricate scientific concepts into easily understandable analogies and narratives, while still preserving the depth and nuance of the underlying science. Whether he is explaining the workings of the human brain, the formation of black holes, or the principles of quantum mechanics, Xu's presentations are characterized by a unique blend of scientific rigor and storytelling flair.Xu's commitment to science communication is also reflected in his unwavering dedication to truth and objectivity. He is a fierce advocate for evidence-based reasoning and scientific integrity, and he is not afraid to challenge misinformation or pseudoscience thatthreatens to undermine public trust in science. Through his clear and compelling explanations of the scientific method and the importance of critical thinking, Xu has empowered his audiences to approach scientific claims with a discerning eye, separating fact from fiction and embracing the open-ended nature of scientific inquiry.In addition to his work as a science communicator, Xu is also an accomplished researcher and educator. He has made significant contributions to the field of physics, with a particular focus on the study of quantum phenomena and the development of innovative technologies. Throughout his career, Xu has mentored numerous students and young researchers, inspiring them to pursue their own scientific passions and to become active participants in the scientific community.Xu's impact on the landscape of popular science in China cannot be overstated. His tireless efforts to demystify science and to foster a culture of scientific curiosity have had a profound and lasting impact on the public's understanding and appreciation of the natural world. Through his engaging and accessible presentations, his thought-provoking writings, and his unwavering commitment to scientific integrity, Xu has become a revered figure in the Chinese scientific community and a trusted source of information for the general public.As China continues to emerge as a global leader in scientific research and innovation, the work of individuals like Xu Guozhang will become increasingly important. By inspiring a new generation of scientists and science communicators, and by cultivating a more scientifically literate and engaged citizenry, Xu is paving the way for a future in which science and society are inextricably linked, working together to address the pressing challenges of our time and to unlock the boundless potential of human knowledge and discovery.。

许国璋英语第二册《第六课》（一）课文：1)课文原文：LIFE AT GATESHEAD HALLIt was a cold winter day. The wind had brought dark clouds and heavy rain, so it was impossible to take a walk. Eliza, john and Georgiana were gathered round theirmother in the sitting-room. She lay on a sofa by the fireside, looking perfectly happywith her darlings about her. But she told me not to come near them because I was nota good child.I went to a small room next to the drawing-room. Taking a book from a bookcase, Iclimbed up into the window-seat. Here I sat behind the curtains and started reading. Iwas quite happy until I heard the voice of John Reed.“ Where is she?” he said, calling to his sisters, “ Eliza！Georgiana! Jane is not here.”I was glad that I had drawn the curtains, and I prayed that I should not bediscovered. But Eliza was quicker than John. She said at once: “She is in thewindow-seat of course.”I came out immediately. “ What do you want?” I asked.“Say ‘ What do you want, Master Reed’,” was his reply.” I want you to come here,”he added. And he sat down in an armchair.John Reed was a school-boy of fourteen: four years older than I, for I was only ten.He was big and stout for his age, with a large face and an unhealthy skin. John had notmuch love for his mother and sisters, but he really hated me. As I came up to his chair,he spent about three minutes in putting out his tongue at me. Then he hit me suddenlyand hard.“ What were you doing behind the curtains?”“ I was reading.”“ Show me the book.”First he put out his tongue at Jane and hit her hard. A little while later, he knockedher over with a book and grasped her hair and shoulder.I returned to the window and brought the book. “ You have no business to read our books,” John Reed continued. “ You are a dependent, Mama says. Your father left you no money. You ought to beg, and not live with a gentleman’s children. Go and stand by the door.”I did so. I turned round and saw that he was going to throw the book at me; I tried to avoid it, but it was too late. I was knocked over and fell against the door, striking my head and cutting it badly. The pain was very sharp.“Wicked, cruel boy!”I said. “You are like a murderer –you are like a slave-driver!”“ What!” he cried. “ What did you say to me? Did you hear her, Eliza and Georgiana? I’ll tell Mama. But first –“He ran at me and grasped my hair and my shoulder. But I was desperate now. I don’t know what I did with my hands, but I heard him cry for help.Mrs. Reed came. “ Take her away to the red room and lock her in,” she said. Four hands then quickly carried me upstairs.“For shame!” cried the maid. “ To strike a gentleman, your young master!”“ Master? How is he my master? Am I a servant?”“ you ought to know, miss,” said the nurse, “ that you owe much to Mrs. Reed. She keeps you. If she turns you away, you will have to go to the poor-house.”These words were not new to me; so I did not answer.( Adapted from Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte)2)课文译文：盖茨海德庄园生活那是一个寒冷的冬日。

许国璋英语第二册《第九课》（一）课文：1)课文原文：THE DEVOTED FRIENDOscar wild(adapted)Once upon a time there was an honest little fellow named Hans. He lived in a cottage all alone, and every day he worked in his garden. In all the village there wasno garden so lovely as his.Little Hans had many friends, but the most devoted friend was big Hugh the Miller. Indeed, the rich Miller was so devoted to little Hans that when he passed hisgarden he always picked a large bouquet of flowers, or if it was the fruit season, hewould fill his pockets with plums and cherries.“Real friends must share everything,” the Miller used to say, and little Hans nodded and smiled and was very proud that he had a friend with such noble ideas.Sometimes, indeed, the neighbors thought it was strange that the rich Miller never gave little Hans anything in return, but Hans never troubled his head aboutthese things.So little Hans worked and worked in his garden. During spring and summer and autumn he was very happy, but when winter came, he suffered from cold andhunger, and often went to bed without supper. Besides, in winter he was very lonely,as the Miller never came to see him.“It’s no use going to see little Hans in winter,” the Miller used to say to his wife, “ When people are in trouble we must leave them alone and not bother them. Thatis my idea of friendship, and I am sure I am right. So I shall wait till spring comes, andthen I shall visit him and he will give me a large bouquet of primroses, and that willmake him very happy.”“ You think so much about others,” said his wife, “ It is a pleasure to hear what you say about friendship. I am sure the priest himself cannot say such beautifulthings as you do, though he lives in a three-storeyed house, and wears a gold ring on his little finger.”“ But why don’t we ask little Hans to come here?” said the Miller’s youngest son. “ If poor Hans in trouble I shall give him half my porridge, and show him mywhite rabbits.”“ What a silly boy you are !” cried the Miller. “ I really don’t know what is the use of sending you to school. You do not learn anything. Why , if little Hans comes here, and sees our warm fire, and our good supper, and our red wine, he will envy us, and envy is a terrible thing. Besides, if Hans comes here, he will ask me to give him some flour on credit, and I cannot do that. Flour is one thing ,and friendship isanother. The words are spelt differently and they mean quite different things.”“How right you are!” said the Miller’s wife, “ Really, I feel quite sleepy. This is just like sitting in church.”(to be continued )2)译文：忠实的朋友奥斯卡·怀尔德(改编)从前有一个诚实的小家伙叫汉斯。
