Cut it out 住手
Ed: Hey, Mary, can you cut that out?
Mary: Cut what out？
I’m not doing anything.
Ed: The tapping of your pen on your desk.
It’s driving me crazy.
Mary: Fine! By the way
would you mind not slurping your coffee
every time you have a cup!
Ed: I don’t slurp my coffee.
And plus, how can you hear it
when you’re shouting into your phone
all the time?
Mary: You ’ve got to be kidding me!
You’re complaining about me
talking on the phone
when you go out for a cigarette break
ten times a day to shoot the breeze?
艾德：嘿，玛丽，
你能不能停止（敲桌子）?
玛丽：停止什么？我什么都没做。
艾德：你在桌子上敲笔的声音，
快把我逼疯了。
玛丽：好吧！顺便说一下，
你能不能不要每次喝咖啡的时候都喝出声！
艾德：我喝咖啡不会发出声音。
此外，当你拿着电话那么大声讲电话，
你怎么能听到呢?
玛丽：你在跟我开玩笑吧！
你抱怨我打电话，而你却每天出去抽十次烟闲聊?
Stop swearing 别说脏话了
Everywhere in the world you can hear people
swearing or using foul language.
Even when learning a second language,
many people know how to swear
before they can speak the language properly.
Indeed, it is a disease.
Recently, in New Jersey,
the government decided to
do something about the problem.
It banned swearing.
You could face a US$500 fine,
including a three-month jail term for swearing.
It is a good law because people in New Jersey
have really stopped swearing so much.
在世界各地，你都能听到人们骂人或使用脏话。
即使在学习第二门的时候，
很多人在能正确地说外语
之前就知道如何说脏话了。
事实上，这是一种疾病。最近，在新泽西州，
政府决定对这个问题做些什么。
新泽西禁止说脏话。
说脏话，你可能面临500美元的罚款，
其中包括三个月的监禁。这是一个很好的法律，
因为新泽西州的人们已经不再那么爱说脏话了。

On the internet 在网络上
The Internet is playing a more
and more important role in our daily life.
On the Internet, we can read news both from
home and abroad and learn about
all kinds of other information as well.
We can also send messages
by e-mail, make phone calls,
take classes, read various kinds of books
and learn foreign languages by ourselves.
Besides, we can even do shopping,
have a chat with others
and make friends with them on the Internet.
In a word, the Internet has
made our life richer and more colorful.
互联网在我们的生活中扮演着越来越重要的角色。
在网上，我们能阅读国内外的新闻
而且还能了解到其他各种信息。
我们还可以用电子邮件发信息、打电话、
上课、阅读各种各样的书和自学外语。
此外，我们甚至可以在网上购物，
跟别人聊天并交朋友。
总之，网络使我们的生活变得更加丰富多彩。

我的邻居 my neighbor
Next to us lives Mr. Zhang,
who is a street-sweeper.
He is in his early sixties and looks quite stern,
but in fact, he is easy to get along with
and is always considerate of others.
Rain or shine,
he goes out to work in the early morning
when there is little traffic on the road.
Because uncaring people litter the streets
with so much garbage,
he cannot take a rest until noon.
To my surprise, he never complains about
his hard and dirty work. In a word,I don't
look down upon him just
because he is a street-sweeper;
instead, I respect my kind neighbor.
我们家隔壁住着一位张先生，他是一个清道夫。
他年约60出头，看起来很严肃;
但事实上，他很容易相处而且总是为别人设想。
虽然他没受过教育，但和他交谈是件令人愉快的事。
不论晴雨，他都会在一大早
交通流量还很小时就出去工作。
因为那些没有公德心的人会在街道上乱丢大量的垃圾，
所以他直到中午才能休息。
令我惊讶的是，他从不抱怨他那辛苦又肮脏的工作。
总之，我不会因他是个清道夫就看不起他;
相反地，我尊敬我的这位好邻居。

Just a dream 噩梦一场
One day I was at home listening to music
when suddenly I felt a pain in my neck.
As I tried to turn my head,
I heard my neck crack.
I got the fright of my life.
I was so scared that
I could feel my legs trembling.
"What's the matter with me?"
I thought to myself.
Just then, I felt myself slapped by someone.
I opened my eyes and saw
my teacher standing over me
with an angry look in his face.
I realized then that I had been dreaming.
I didn't mind getting caught dozing off in class.
I was happy what happened was just a dream.
一天，我正在家里听音乐，
突然我感到脖子疼。
当我试图转过头时，我听到我的脖子裂了。
我吓得要命。我吓得两腿发抖。
“我怎么啦?”我心里想。
就在那时，我觉得自己被人扇了一巴掌。
我睁开眼睛，看见老师站在我面前，
脸上带着愤怒的表情。
这时我意识到我一直在做梦。
我不介意在课堂上打瞌睡被发现。
我很高兴发生的一切只是一场梦。

I respect him
I respect him,who was
born into a humble family
but never thus feels self-conscious.
He does well in school but
remains modest and polite,
which is why he has so many friends.
Back home,he helps his mom
do the chores and look after
his two brothers and one sister.
All in all,he is my role model in every way.
我尊敬约翰，他出身寒门但从不因此感到自卑。
他在学校功课很棒，但却保持谦和有礼，
这也是他有许多朋友的原因。
回到家，他会帮妈妈打杂
并照顾两个弟弟和一个妹妹。
总之，他在各方面都堪称是我的榜样。
