Lesson 1 A private conversation 私人谈话上星期我去看戏。

我的座位很好，戏很有意思，但我却无法欣赏。

一青年男子与一青年女子坐在我的身后，大声地说着话。

我非常生气，因为我听不见演员在说什么。

我回过头去怒视着那一男一女，他们却毫不理会。

最后，我忍不住了，又一次回过头去，生气地说：“我一个字也听不见了！” “不关你的事，”那男的毫不客气地说，“这是私人间的谈话！”Lesson 2 Breakfast or lunch? 早餐还是午餐？那是个星期天，而在星期天我是从来不早起的，有时我要一直躺到吃午饭的时候。

上个星期天，我起得很晚。

我望望窗外，外面一片昏暗。

“鬼天气！”我想，“又下雨了。

”正在这时，电话铃响了。

是我姑母露西打来的。

“我刚下火车，”她说，“我这就来看你。

”“但我还在吃早饭，”我说。

“你在干什么？”她问道。

“我正在吃早饭，”我又说了一遍。

“天啊，”她说，“你总是起得这么晚吗？现在已经1点钟了！”Lesson 3 Please send me a card 请给我寄一张明信片明信片总搅得我假日不得安宁。

去年夏天，我去了意大利。

我参观了博物馆，还去了公园。

一位好客的服务员教了我几句意大利语，之后还借给我一本书。

我读了几行，但一个字也不懂。

我每天都想着明信片的事。

假期过得真快，可我还没有给我的朋友们寄过一张明信片。

到了最后一天，我作出了一项重大决定。

我早早起了床，买来了37张明信片。

我在房间里关了整整一天。

然而竟连一张明信片也没写成！Lesson 4 An exciting trip 激动人心的旅行我刚刚收到弟弟蒂姆的来信，他正在澳大利亚。

他在那儿已经住了6个月了。

蒂姆是个工程师，正在一家大公司工作，并且已经去过澳大利亚的不少地方了。

他刚买了一辆澳大利亚小汽车，现在去了澳大利亚中部的小镇艾利斯斯普林斯。

他不久还将到达达尔文去，从那里，他再飞往珀斯。

我弟弟以前从未出过国，因此，他觉得这次旅行非常激动人心。
