　　Lesson 39 Nothing to worry about

　　不必担心

　　Listen to the tape then answer the question below.

　　听录音，然后回答以下问题。

　　What was the difference between Bruce's behaviour and that of other

　　people?

　　The rough across the plain soon became so bad that we tried to get Bruce to

　　drive back to the village we had come from. Even though the road was littered

　　with boulders and pitted with holes, Bruce was not in the least perturbed.

　　Glancing at his map, he informed us that the next village was a mere twenty

　　miles away. It was not that Bruce always underestimated difficulties. He simply

　　had no sense of danger at all. No matter what the conditions were, he believed

　　that a car should be driven as fast as it could possibly go.

　　As we bumped over eh dusty track, we swerved to avoid large boulders. The

　　wheels scooped up stones which hammered ominously under the car. We felt sure

　　that sooner or later a stone would rip a hole in our petrol tank or damage the

　　engine. Because of this, we kept looking back, wondering if we were leaving a

　　trail of oil and petrol behind us.

　　What a relief it was when the boulders suddenly disappeared, giving way to

　　a stretch of plain where the only obstacles were clumps of bushes. But there was

　　worse to come. Just ahead of us there was a huge fissure. In response to renewed

　　pleadings, Bruce stopped. Though we all got out to examine the fissure, he

　　remained in the car. We informed him that the fissure extended for fifty years

　　and was tow feet wide and four feet deep. Even this had no effect. Bruce went

　　into a low gear and drove at a terrifying speed, keeping the front wheels

　　astride the crack as he followed its zigzag course. Before we had time to worry

　　about what might happen, we were back on the plain again. Bruce consulted the

　　map once more and told us that the village was now only fifteen miles away. Our

　　next obstacle was a shallow pool of water about half a mile across. Bruce

　　charged at it, but in the middle, the car came to a grinding half. A yellow

　　light on the dashboard flashed angrily and Bruce cheerfully announced that there

　　was no oil in the engine!

　　参考译文

　　穿越平原的道路高低不平，开车走了不远，路面愈加崎岖。我们想劝说布鲁斯把车开回我们出发的那个村庄去。尽管路面布满石头，坑坑洼洼，但布鲁斯却一点儿不慌乱。他瞥了一眼地图，告诉我们前面再走不到20英里就是一个村庄。这并不是说布鲁斯总是低估困难，而是他压根儿没有一点儿危险感。他认为不管路面情况如何，车必须以最高速度前进。

　　我们在尘士飞扬的道路上颠簸，车子东拐西弯，以躲开那些大圆石。车轮搅起的石块锤击车身，发出不祥的锤击声。我们想念迟早会飞起一个石块把油箱砸开一个窟窿，或者把发动机砸坏。因此，我们不时地掉过头，怀疑车后是否留下了机油和汽油的痕迹。

　　突然大石块不见了，前面是一片平地，唯一的障碍只有一簇簇灌木丛。这使我们长长地松了口气。但是更糟糕的事情在等着我们，离我们不远处，出现一个大裂缝。我们再次央求布鲁斯小心，他这才把车停了下来。我们纷纷下车察看那个大裂缝，他却呆在车上。我们告诉他那个大裂缝长50码，宽2英尺，深4英尺。这也没有对他产生任何影响。布鲁斯挂上慢档，把两只前轮分别搁在裂缝的两边，顺着弯弯曲曲的裂缝，以发疯的速度向前开去。我们还未来得及担心后果，车已重新开上了平地。布鲁斯又看了一眼地图，告诉我们那座村庄离我们只有15英里了。下一个障碍是一片约半英里宽的浅水塘。布鲁斯向水塘冲去，但车开到水塘当中，嘎吱一声停住了。仪表盘一盏黄灯闪着刺眼的光芒，布鲁斯兴致勃勃地宣布发动机里没油了!
