新概念英语第二册12课课文New Concept English Second Edition – Lesson 12In Lesson 12 of the New Concept English Second Edition, we are introduced to an interesting story about a man named Mr. Hutton who decides to build a house. This lesson explores the struggle and humor that ensue as Mr. Hutton tries to navigate the challenges of construction. Let us delve into the content of the lesson and unravel the tale step by step.The story begins with Mr. Hutton's decision to build a house. Excited by the idea, he looks for a suitable plot of land and, after careful consideration, chooses one on a hillside. This decision, however, proves to be a problematic one. Due to the hillside’s steep slope, construction becomes incredibly challenging. Mr. Hutton’s efforts to level the ground and build a foundation create an amusing chain of events.To make the hillside suitable for construction, Mr. Hutton attempts to rearrange the earth. Unfortunately, as he starts digging, he unintentionally causes a landslide. The ensuing chaos and the sight of his truck disappearing into the tumultuous earth leaves Mr. Hutton astonished. Despite this setback, he perseveres, hires a bulldozer, and carries on with his construction plans.Moving on to the next phase, Mr. Hutton plans to build a brick wall around his property. This proves to be another challenge as the bricks repeatedly fall over due to instability. It seems that every action he takes is met with a humorous obstacle. Despite these mishaps, Mr. Hutton’s resilience remains evident as he continues to laugh at the absurdity of his situation.As the story progresses, Mr. Hutton realizes that he has made a critical error in deciding to build the house on a hillside. The hillside’s unstable nature brings numerous problems, including additional landslides and difficulties in building a road. Mr. Hutton’s determination is commendable, but his choice of location becomes increasingly questionable.To add to his woes, the construction of the house proves to be equally challenging. Mr. Hutton faces constant setbacks and frustrations, including issues with electricity, water supply, and plumbing. These obstacles only serve to exacerbate his mounting frustration and question the feasibility of his project.Throughout the lesson, the author masterfully employs humor to portray Mr. Hutton's efforts and the challenges he faces.

It also emphasizes the notion that sometimes, even with the best intentions, circumstances can conspire against us.In conclusion, New Concept English Second Edition – Lesson 12 tells the amusing story of Mr. Hutton's attempt to build a house on a hillside.
