了解，好奇的 5 bomb n. 炸弹 6 plant v. 安放 参考译文 我在幼年的时候，曾多次乘飞机旅行。 我的父母曾经住在南美洲，所以假期里我常从欧洲乘飞机到他们那里。 我总是由一位空中乘务员照管，从未遇到过不愉快的经历。 我习惯了乘飞机旅行，只是有一次把我吓坏了。 起飞之后，我们在城市上空低低地飞行，然后慢慢爬高。 这时飞机突然调转头来，飞回了机场。 在我们等待降落时，一位空中 乘务员告诉我们要保持镇静，待飞机一着陆，就马上不声不响地离开飞机。 飞机上的人都很着急，大家都急于想知道究竟出了什么事。 后来我们才得知，飞机上坐了一位非常重要的人物。 有人报告警察，说飞机上安放了一枚炸弹。 我们降落之后，飞机被彻底搜查了一遍。 幸运的是，什么也没有找到。 5个小时后，我们又起飞了。 Lesson 80:The Crystal Palace 水晶宫 First listen and then answer the question. 听录音，然后回答以下问题。 How many people visited the Great Exhibition of 1851? Perhaps the most extraordinary building of the nieeth century was the Crystal Palace, which was built in Hyde Park for the Great Exhibition of 1851. The Crystal Palace was different from all other buildings in the world, for it was made of iron and glass. It was one of the biggest buildings of all time and a lot of people from many countries came to see it. A great many goods were sent to the exhibition from variousparts of the world. There was also a great deal of machinery on display. The most wonderful piece of machinery on show was Nasmyth39。 s steam hammer. Though in those days, traveling was not as easy as it is today, steam boats carried thousands of visitors across the Channel from Europe. On arriving in England, they were taken to the Crystal Palace by train. There were six million visitors in all, and the profits from the exhibition were used to build museums and colleges. Later, the Crystal Palace was moved to South London. It remained one of the most famous buildings in the world until it was burnt down in 1936.

When he had killed the guard, the prisoner of war quickly dragged him into the bushes. Working rapidly in the darkness, he soon changed into the dead man39。 s clothes. Now, dressed in a blue uniform and with a rifle over his shoulder, the prisoner marched boldly up and down in front of the camp. He could hear shouting in the camp itself. Lights were blazing and men were running here and there: they had just discovered that a prisoner had escaped. At that moment, a large black car with four officers inside it, stopped at the camp gates. The officers got out and the prisoner stood to attention and saluted as they passed. When they had gone, the driver of the car came towards him. The man obviously wanted to talk. He was rather elderly with grey hair and clear blue eyes. The prisoner felt sorry for him, but there was nothing else he could do. As the man came near, the prisoner knocked him to the ground with a sharp blow. Then, jumping into the car, he drove off as quickly as he could.

Fishermen and sailors sometimes claim to have seen monsters in the sea. Though people have often laughed at stories told by seamen, it is now known that many ofthese ‘monsters39。 which have at times been sighted are simply strange fish. Occasionally, unusual creatures are washed to the shore, but they are rarely caught out at sea. Some time ago, however, a peculiar fish was caught near Madagascar. A small fishing boat was carried miles out to sea by the powerful fish as it pulled on the line. Realizing that this was no ordinary fish, the fisherman made every effort not to damage it in any way. When it was eventually brought to shore, it was found to be over thirteen feet long. It had a head like a horse, big blue eyes, shining silver skin, and a bright red tail. The fish, which has since been sent to a museum where it is being examined by a scientist, is called an oarfish. Such creatures have rarely been seen alive by man as they live at a depth of six hundred feet. New words and expressions 生词和短语 1 monster n. 怪物 2 sailor n. 海员 3 sight v. 见到 4 creature n. 动物，生物 5 peculiar adj. 奇怪的，不寻常的 6 shining adj. 闪闪发光的 7 oarfish n. 桨鱼 参考译文 渔夫和水手们有时声称自己看到过海里的妖怪。 虽然人们常常对水手们讲的故事付诸 一笑，但现在看来，人们有时看到的这些“妖怪”很多不过是些奇怪的鱼。 一些异常的生物偶尔会被冲到岸上来，但它们在海上却极少能被捕到。 然而 不久前，在马达加斯加附近的海里却捕到了一条奇怪的鱼。 一条小渔船被一条咬住钩的强壮的大鱼拖到了几英里以外的海面上。 那位渔民意识到这根本不是一条普通的鱼，于是千方百计不让它受到丝毫伤害。 当终于把它弄上岸后，人们发现它身长超过了 13英尺。 它长着一个像马一样的头，有着大的蓝眼睛和闪闪发光的银色皮肤，还有一条鲜红色的尾巴。 此鱼叫桨鱼，被送进了博物馆，现正接受一位科学家的检查。 人们很少能看到活着的这类动物，因为它们生活在 600英尺深的水下。 Lesson 83:After the elections 大选之后 First listen and then answer the question. 听录音，然后回答以下问题。 Why did Patrick keep on asking the same question?
