6-8 M: We shouldn’t get up late on Saturday morning. I’m going to walk in the woods behind our　　

　 house this week. W: I know you enjoy walking, but I heard our house manager say to watch out for the wild wolf. M: What did he say about the wolf? W: Someone prepared food for small animals and that attracted the wolf. M: Are you sure it isn’t a joke W: I don’t think it’s a joke, but I really don’t understand what he means.

9-11 W: What’s the matter, Mark. You don’t look very happy. M: I’m not. I’m worried about my English. W: What’s the problem? M: I’m not practicing enough. W: Why not? M: Well, it’s difficult to meet English people. W: You should go out more. M: Where should I go? W: You should go to bars. You should join a club. M: But...English people never speak to me. W: Ah! You should speak first. M: What can I talk about? W: The weather! English people are always interested in the weather.

Good evening! Tonight the main news is about the bad weather we are having. Storms are reported in all parts of the country. In the north, many roads are closed because of high winds. Two main roads near Glasgow are blocked by trees. In the south too, heavy rains and storms are reported. Near Dover, fifty houses have been flooded and last night a lorry was blown over by the wind. In the east, quite a few areas have been flooded. Many small boats have been lost and this morning one boat was found two miles on land. Things are better in the west. But two villages have been flooded by a river and four people nearly drowned in the flood. No storms are expected tomorrow.

4. M: When will Flight A391 leave? W: It leaves at 8:30, but you should check in half an hour ahead of time.

Translation　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　

一部昂贵的大片导演计划在大洋的上空拍摄美丽的落日，以便观众在影片末尾可以看见男女主人公在夕阳前互道永别。教育博客一天傍晚，教育博客他派出他的摄制组去拍摄夕阳。教育博客

第二天早晨他对摄制组的人说，“你们已经拍摄落日了吗？”教育博客

摄制组的人说“先生，没有。”

导演很生气，他问“为什么没有？”教育博客

“呃，先生”其中一人回答道，教育博客 “我们在东海岸，而太阳在西边落下。如果有必要的话，我们可以在海上给你拍到日出，但拍不到落日。”

“但我要的是落日！”导演吼道，“到飞机场去，乘坐下一趟班机去西海岸给我拍落日。”

就在那时，一个年轻的秘书想出了一个办法。教育博客 “你们为什么不拍摄日出，然后往后倒呢？这样它看起来就像落日了。”她建议道。教育博客

导演说“这是一个好主意！”于是他转过头来对摄制组的人说，“我要你们明天把海上美丽的日出给我拍下来。”教育博客

第二天清晨摄制组出去了，教育博客他们在美丽的海湾中心把海滩上美丽的日出拍下来了。九点钟时，他们把拍摄的日出送到了导演那里。“先生，给，”他们边说边把拍摄的带子交给了导演，导演对此很满意。教育博客

他们所有人都走进了录音室。“好啦，”导演解释道，“现在男女主人公将要道别了。把把胶片往后倒，这样我就能他们背后的‘落日’了。”教育博客

‘落日’开始了，但是十五秒之后，导演双手捂着脸，大声叫摄制组停。教育博客

胶片中的鸟正在往后飞，海浪也在从海滩上往下退。教育博客
