第一篇

My First and My Last
When George was thirty-five, he bought a small plane and learned to
fly it. He soon became very good and made his plane do all kinds of
tricks.
George had a friend. His name was Mark. One day George offered to take
Mark up in his plane. Mark thought,
several times, but I've never been in a small one, so I'll go.
They went up, and George flew around for half an hour and did all
kinds of tricks in the air.
When they came down again, Mark was very glad to be back safely, and
he said to his friend in a shaking voice,

First Flight
Mr. Johnson had never been up in an aerophane before and he had read a lot about air
accidents, so one day when a friend offered to take him for a ride in his own small
phane, Mr. Johnson was very worried about accepting. Finally, however, his friend
persuaded him that it was very safe, and Mr. Johnson boarded the plane.
His friend started the engine and began to taxi onto the runway of the airport. Mr.
Johnson had heard that the most dangerous part of a flight were the take-off and the
landing, so he was extremely frightened and closed his eyes.
After a minute or two he opened them again, looked out of the window of the plane,
and said to his friend,
don't they?

floor. When a waitress discovered what had happened, she showed deep sympathy for
him and decided to do him a favour.
So the next morning when he was out taking a walk in the roof garden, she hammered
a nail exactly where the fly had stayed.
Now the old man entered his room. The smell of the spilt wine reminded him of the
accident. When he looked up at the wall, he found the fly was there again! He walked
to it carefully adn slapped it with all his strength. On hearing a loud cry, the kind-
hearted waitress rushed in. To her great surprise, the poor old man was there sitting on
the floor, his teeth clenched and his right hand bleeding! < br>故事大意：

A Soldier's Brilliant Idea

Mr. Robinson had to travel somewhere on business, and as he was in a hurry, he
decided to go by air. He liked sitting beside a window when he was flying, so when
he got on to the plane, he looked for a window seat. He found all of them had already
had been taken except for one. There was a soldier sitting in the seat beside this one,
and Mr. Robinson was surprised that he had not taken the one by the window; but,
anyhow, he at once went towards it.

When he reached it, however, he saw that there was a notice on it. It was written in
ink and said,
Robinson had never seen such an unusual notice in a plane before, but he thought that
the plane must be carrying something particularly heavy in it, so he walked on and
found another empty seat, not beside a window, to sit in.
Two or three people tried to sit in the window seat beside the soldier, but they too
read the notice and went on, when the plane was nearly full, a very beautiful girl
hurried into the plane. The soldier, who was watching the passengers coming in,
quickly took the notice off the seat beside himself and in this way succeededin having
the company of the girl during the whole trip.

A Bad Impression
Six people were travelling in a compartment on a train. Five of them were quiet and
well behaved, but the sixth was a rude young man who was causing a lot of trouble to
the other passengers.
At last this young man got out at a station with his two heavy bags. None of the other
passengers helped him, but one of them waited until the rude young man was very far
away and then opened the window and shouted to him,
the compartment!
The young man truned around and hurried back with his two bags. He was very tired
when he arrived, but he shouted through the window,
As the train began to move again, the passenger who had called him back opened the
window and said,
