英语教学小故事1：
Jim went to the thrift shop. He wasn’t looking for anything in
particular. He liked to go there just to browse. A big sign on the front
door said OPEN. The shop was closed on Sunday and Monday. The rest of
the week, it opened at 10 a.m. and closed at 2 p.m.
Two women worked inside. They rang up sales and put the items
into plastic bags for the customers to carry out. At the back of the
shop was a big room where another lady worked. She sorted the new
donations and put price tags on them. At the end of each day, she would
bring the new donations out to the main part of the shop.
Everyone who worked at the thrift shop was a volunteer. The only
"payment" they received was that they had the opportunity to see, and
buy, any items in the shop before the customers did.
When Jim entered, the lady at the register told him hello. He
smiled and said hello. She knew Jim because he was a regular customer.
Jim said, "What’s new?"
She laughed and said that nothing was ever new at a thrift shop.
"It’s always old and it’s always used," she smiled.
Jim looked at the watches in the glass case. He saw one that he
liked.
"Could I look at that one?" he asked.

Laura went to the stable. Four horses stood there. She put a
saddle on Star. He was seven years old, big and dark brown. Her sister
came out to the stable. They were both going to exercise the horses. It
was a warm, sunny day. Janice saddled up Moonbeam, a white mare. They
got on the horses and started walking them.
A few minutes later, Laura was telling Janice about the new
doctor in her hospital. She raised her hand for a second to make a point.
Just then, Star bucked. Laura went flying into the air. She landed on
her head and shoulder on the grass. "Oh, my gosh!" Jan cried. "Laura, are you all right?"
Laura moaned. Jan gently rolled her over. She didn’t see any
blood. That’s good, she thought.
"Can you move? You’re not paralyzed anywhere, are you?"
Jan pulled Laura up into a sitting position. Laura slightly
moved her legs and arms. She wasn’t paralyzed. When she moved her right
hand to touch her head, she groaned.
"What’s the matter?"
"That hurt. When I moved my arm, it hurt."
They still didn’t see any blood. Jan unbuttoned the top buttons
on Laura’s blouse and looked at Laura’s right collarbone.
"Oh, no," she said.
英语教学小故事3：
Mike looked at the label on the big plastic container. It said
Garlic Powder. There was a U with a circle around it after the word
Powder. What does this U mean, Mike wondered. Under the word Powder was
another word, Seasoning. Under that word was a drawing of a garlic bulb.
Mike knew that food labels can be tricky. Powder is powder, but
Seasoning could mean salt. He looked all around the plastic container
for an ingredients label. There wasn’t one. In small print under the
drawing of the garlic bulb was a phone number: 1-800-632-6900. Call that
number if you have comments or questions, the label said.
Mike called the number. A woman answered. He asked her what the
U inside a circle meant. She said it meant kosher. Kosher food is food
that is prepared according to Jewish law.
Mike asked where the ingredients label was. She said if there is
only one ingredient, there is no ingredients label.
"So, there is no salt in this product?" Mike asked.
"No, sir," she said. “It’s 100 percent garlic powder." "Why does it say, Product of USA and China?"
She said that sometimes they get the garlic from China,
sometimes they get it from the US.
