　　Lesson 70 Red for danger

　　危险的红色

　　First listen and then answer the question.

　　听录音，然后回答以下问题。

　　How was the drunk removed from the ring?

　　During a bullfight, a drunk suddenly wandered into the middle of the ring. The crowd began to shout,

　　but the drunk was unaware of the danger. The bull was busy with the matador at the time, but it suddenly

　　caught sight of the drunk who was shouting rude remarks and waving a red cap. Apparently sensitive to

　　criticism, the bull forgot all about the matador and charged at the drunk. The crowd suddenly grew

　　quiet. The drunk, however, seemed quite sure of himself. When the bull got close to him, he clumsily

　　stepped aside to let it pass. The crowd broke into cheers and the drunk bowed. By this time, however,

　　three men had come into the ring and they quickly dragged the drunk to safety. Even the bull seemed to

　　feel sorry for him, for it looked on sympathetically until the drunk was out of the way before once more

　　turning its attention to the matador.

　　New words and expressions 生词和短语

　　bullfight n. 斗牛

　　drunk n. 醉汉

　　wander v. 溜达，乱走

　　参考译文

　　在一次斗牛时，一个醉汉突然溜达到斗牛场中间，人们开始大叫起来，但醉汉却没有意识到危险。当时那公牛正忙

　　于对付斗牛士，但突然它看见了醉汉，只见他正大声说着粗鲁的话，手里挥动着一顶红帽子。对挑衅显然非常敏感的公

　　牛完全撇开斗牛士，直奔醉汉而来。观众突然静了下来，可这醉汉像是很有把握似的。当公牛逼近他时，他踉跄地住旁

　　边一闪，牛扑空了。观众欢呼起来，醉汉向人们鞠躬致谢。然而，此时已有3个人进入斗牛场，迅速把醉汉拉到安全的

　　地方。好像连牛也在为他感到遗憾，因为它一直同情地看着醉汉，直到他的背影消逝，才重新将注意力转向斗牛士。

　　Lesson 71 A famous clock

　　一个的大钟

　　First listen and then answer the question.

　　听录音，然后回答以下问题。

　　Has Big Ben ever gone wrong?

　　When you visit London, one of the first things you will see is Big Ben, the famous clock which can

　　be heard all over the world on the B.B.C. If the Houses of Parliament had not been burned down in 1834,

　　the great clock would never have been erected. Big Ben takes its name from Sir Benjamin Hall who was

　　responsible for the making of the clock when the new Houses of Parliament were being built. It is not

　　only of immense size, but is extremely accurate as well. Officials from Greenwich Observatory have the

　　clock checked twice a day. On the B.B.C. you can hear the clock when it is actually striking because

　　microphones are connected to the clock tower. Big Ben has rarely gone wrong. Once, however, it failed to

　　give the correct time. A painter who had been working on the tower hung a pot of paint on one of the

　　hands and slowed it down!

　　New words and expressions 生词和短语

　　parliament n. 议会，国会

　　erect v. 建起

　　accurate adj. 准确的

　　official n. 官员，行政人员

　　Greenwich n. 格林尼治

　　observatory n. 天文台

　　check v. 检查

　　microphone n. 扩音器，麦克风

　　tower n. 塔

　　参考译文

　　当你游览伦敦时，首先看到的东西之一就是“大本”钟，即那座从英国广播公司的广播中全世界都可以听到它的声

　　音的大钟。如果不是国会大厦在1834年被焚毁的话，这座大钟永远也不会建造。“大本”钟得名于本杰明.霍尔爵士，

　　因为当建造新的国会大厦时，他负责建造大钟。此钟不仅外型巨大，而且走时也非常准确。格林尼治天文台的官员们每

　　天两次派人矫正此钟。当大钟打点的时候，你可以从英国广播公司的广播中听到，因为钟塔上接了麦克风。“大本”钟

　　很多出差错。然而有一次，它却把时间报错。在钟塔上干活的一位油漆工把一只油漆桶挂在了一根指针上，把钟弄慢了

　　!

　　Lesson 72 A car called bluebird

　　“蓝鸟”汽车

　　First listen and then answer the question.

　　听录音，然后回答以下问题。

　　What mistake was made?

　　The great racing driver, Sir Malcolm Campbell, was the first man to drive at over 300 miles per

　　hour. He set up a new world record in September 1935 at Bonneville Salt Flats, Utah. Bluebird, the car

　　he was driving, had been specially built for him. It was over 30 feet in length and had a 2,500-

　　horsepower engine. Although Campbell reached a speed of over 304 miles per hour, he had great difficulty

　　in controlling the car because a tyre burst during the first run. After his attempt, Campbell was

　　disappointed to learn that his average speed had been 299 miles per hour. However, a few days later, he

　　was told that a mistake had been made. His average speed had been 301 miles per hour. Since that time,

　　racing drivers have reached speeds over 600 miles an hour. Following in his father's footsteps many

　　years later, Sir Malcolm's son, Donald, also set up a world record. Like his father, he was driving a

　　car called Bluebird.

　　New words and expressions 生词和短语

　　racing n. 竞赛

　　per prep. 每

　　Utah n. 犹他(美国州名)

　　horsepower n. 马力

　　burst v. 爆裂

　　average adj. 平均的

　　footstep n. 足迹

　　参考译文

　　杰出的赛车选手马尔科姆.坎贝尔爵士是第一个以每小时超过300英里的速度驾车的人。他于1935年9月在犹他州的

　　邦纳维尔盐滩创造了一项新的世界纪录。他驾驶的“蓝鸟”牌汽车是专门为他制造的。它的车身长30英尺，有一个

　　2,500 马力的发动机。尽管坎贝尔达到了每小时超过304英里的速度，但他很难把汽车控制住，因为在开始的行程中爆

　　了一只轮胎。比赛结束后，坎贝尔非常失望地得知他的平均时速是299英里。然而，几天之后，有人告诉他说弄错了。

　　他的平均时速实际是301英里。从那时以来，赛车选手已达到每小时600英里的速度。很多年之后，马尔科姆爵士的儿子

　　唐纳德踏着父亲的足迹，也创造了一项世界纪录。同他父亲一样，他也驾驶着一辆名叫“蓝鸟”的汽车。
