戴维在一家炉厂工作。工厂外部的墙被漆成了蓝色。一天，老板在纸上画了一种新的炉灶的轮廓。戴维一再建议，如果没有全面的市场调查就不要生产它。老板的能力在它事业开端的时候很突出，但现在他没有一盎司的常识。那是他应该克服的缺点。但老板被市场外表的样子所蒙蔽。他过高估计了市场需要。工人们穿着蓝工作服，白天黑夜地工作着。工厂增加了产量。但老板没有找到产品的出路。价格战的爆发使工厂很快没有钱了。失败让老板丧失了勇气。戴维对结果感到很难过。他只有辞职。无论如何，他也需要一些野外的活动。他应当去户外呼吸呼吸新鲜空气。在一个晴朗的日子，戴维去了远离中心的郊区。他已经准备好了露营装备。郊区的景色非常秀丽。河水已经溢出了两岸。天气很热，戴维脱下了外衣。多么美好的一天啊。

一个苦干的画家被雇佣去描绘宫殿的一面墙。一个专门小组一周后会评判他的绘画。工作之前，画家已经收集了许多关于宫殿的小册子。他注意到宫殿的天花板是带有雕刻的面板。他在便笺簿上画了草图，然后就开始正式工作了。他的手提着一个颜料提桶和一个盘子跟在他后面。画家工作得如此之快，他的助手都差点不能跟上。很快，墙上出现了三幅绘画。一幅是一个欢快的女孩在太平洋上用桨划船。另一幅是一个人跳伞。最后一幅是一只巨大的熊猫躺在一棵棕榈树下，。画家对他们很满意，他捆扎包裹并掏出一盒烟来。但他的助手却因为恐慌而看起来很苍白。画家很不高兴：“我煞费苦心来画它们。你怎么如此沮丧？你让我的心都疼痛了。”因而助手气喘吁吁地说出了原因。原来国王曾经被一只熊猫咬到过手掌

艾博特先生是名医生，在过去，他对生活是一种消极的态度。据说他是模仿他父亲的行为模式。他喜欢穿膝盖上带补丁的牛仔裤。他喜爱的消遣就是轻拍他小猫柔软的爪子。一天，他的一个病人死于癌症，这唤醒了艾博特先生。他为死者读了圣经里的一段。从那天起，艾博特先生有着热情发明一种新药。他对此有很大的耐性。他知道通往成功的惟一护照是辛苦工作。他完成工作的那天，为他工作的工人们要求立刻付款。他全部付清了他所欠的钱。在给清工资遣散工人后，他把他发明的图案贴在墙上。艾博特先生就这项发明获得了一项专利。他的赞助人对此非常感兴趣。他骑自行车来拜访艾博特先生。赞助人经过一条铺着鹅卵石的小路。人行道上不准停车，因此他不得不把自行车放在走廊里。艾博特得天独厚生一人在家。他的妻子赶牛群到牧场去放牧了，赞助人是个非常有耐心的人。他建议艾博特先生把专利卖给他。艾博特先生在做重大决定之前暂停了一会儿。最终，他决定把发明捐赠给社会。他那样做是为了回报社会。他的爱国行为让许多人钦佩。

我将告诉你一个安宁的半岛。那里的当地人多数是农民。他们在山脚下种植了胡椒、花生和绿豌豆。山顶上则种植了梨子树和桃子树。为了检查那些树，农民们每天骑自行车上山下山。梨子和桃子每公斤3美元。梨子和桃子很容易剥皮。海岸有许多漂亮的卵石。当地的妇女用它们和珍珠一起来做项链。珍珠和卵石项链是半岛的一个特色。当地人住在茅草房里。不过雨水无法渗 透过他们的茅草房。他们房里钟摆是一样的，一只小熊！那是他们的吉祥物。有人生病的话，就会注射青霉素；有 人年迈了的话，政府就发养老金的给他。当地人有个古怪的习惯，他们不喜欢游客。游客的窥视是禁止的------违者处罚50便士。游客察觉到自己不受欢迎后会很快离开那里。
From the top of the hill, you could get a perspective of a theatre. Agnes was a singer there. As a singer, she was perfection itself. Her performance was perfect. Agnes’s photographs often appeared on the periodicals. Perhaps she was so famous that Nazis31 wanted her to perform for Hitler’s birthday. The personnel manager called on her in person . He tried to persuade her to perform the contract and sing for Hitler. “with your permission, I will inform them now.” he said. Agnes refused, “I will not permit it happen. This is my permanent decision.” The manager said , “I have no right to interfere32 with your personal liberty. Last night, almost a hundred people perished in the struggle against the Nazi30 . lf you persist in that they will persecute33 you. All personnel hope you can agree to perform.” Agnes was a woman with a strong personality. In spite of his efforts at persuasion34, she didn’t agree. She replied , “I know that perfectly35 well. But don’t perplex the issue; it isn’t so complicated. What percentage of the audiences is Nazi? I must get the story in its proper perspectives. I am a Jew. I am a hundred percent in disagreement with you . This is my perpetual loyalty36 to my faith. The roses perfume the air in summer and perish in winter. I know it is the most difficult period of my life. But I’ d rather die as a rose.”
从山顶你可以看到一座剧院的院景。阿格尼丝曾是那里的一名歌唱家。作为一名歌唱家，她自己就是完美的化身。她的表演是尽善尽美的。阿格尼丝的照片经常出现在期刊上面。也许她太有名了，纳粹想让她为希特勒的生日演出。人事经理亲自拜访她。他试图说服她履行合同为希特勒演唱。他说：“得到你的允许的话，我立刻就通知他们。”阿格尼丝拒绝了：“我不会允许这种事发生的。这是永久的决定。”经理说：“我没有权利干涉你个人的自由。昨天夜里，大约一百人在同纳粹的抗争中消亡了。如果你坚持这样的话，他们会迫害你的。我们全体职员都希望你可以同意演出。”阿格尼丝是一名个性很强的女子。尽管经理为说服她而费尽努力，她还是没同意。她回答道：“我知道那点很清楚。但不要使问题复杂化了。它没有那么复杂。观众中纳粹的百分率是多少？我必须从正确的观点来了解事情。我是一名犹太人。我百分之一百不同意此事。这是我对自己信仰永恒的忠诚。玫瑰在夏天使空气芳香，在冬天里凋谢。我知道这是我一生里最困难的时期，但我宁愿像玫瑰那样死去。”
Philosopher was fond of philosophy . His physical force was weak ,but his mental fore9 was great .He noticed every petty phenomenon :A pianist played the piano .A physicist37 was a person versed38 in or studying physics, and he must understand photoelectric39 effect .Both physicians and surgeons knew physiology40 well. A photographer must learn photography , thus he could take nice photographs .The philosopher could pick out these people from a group of people . And because he picked up some knowledge of physics and chemistry ,he knew physical thing were those he could see ,touch ,etc It was a physical impossibility for the sun to rise in the west .Petrol could be made from petroleum41 .He spoke42 in simple phrases to explain these to children .But the philosopher was going through a difficult phase . The government rejected his petition for eliminating the pests . This made him a little pessimistic . But he wasn’t a petty person .So he decided to take a trip .He picked out a cat as a pet to accompany him .On the way to the railway station ,he picked up a coin on the floor .Then he got on a train to Paris .The train stopped to pick up passengers then it picked up speed .The philosopher picked up French while he was staying in Paris .
一名哲学家喜欢哲学。他身体的力量很弱，但他的精神力量却很强。他注意到每一个琐碎的现象：钢琴家弹奏钢琴；物理学家是精通或研究物理学的人，并且他一定理解光电效应；内科医生和外科医生都清楚生理学；一名摄影师必须学过摄影术，这样他才能拍好照片。哲学家可以从一群人中间将他们辨认出来。并且因为他偶然学到一些物理知识和化学知识，他知道物质的东西是那些他可以看到和角摸的。太阳从西边出业从自然科学来说是不可能的。汽油可以由石油得来。他用简单的短语来向孩子们解释这些。不过这名哲学家正经历着困难的阶段。政府否决了他要求消灭害虫的请愿书。这让他有点悲观。但他不是一个气量小的人。于是他决定来次旅行。他挑拣出一保猫作为宠物陪伴自己。在去火车站的路上，他拾起一枚地上的硬币。然后他登上了去巴黎的火车。火车停下来中途搭载旅客然后增加速度前进。哲学家待在巴黎的时候学会了法语。
