文档简介
Chapter1(旁白)One day, two old brothers, chatting along, happened to get to wondering what might be the fate of a perfectly honest and intelligent stranger who should be turned adrift in London without a friend, and with no money but that million-pound bank-note, and no way to account for his being in possession of it. The brothers had been having a pretty hot argument a couple of days before, and had ended by agreeing to decide it by a bet, which is the English way of settling everything. Just then Henry came along.(I was so hungry.)Brother A: Young man, come here, please. Brother B: Could I ask you some questions?Henry: Of course, sir.A: What do you do?Henry: Im a mining-brokers clerk in San Francisco.B: Why are you staying here?Henry: My time was my own after the afternoon board, Saturdays, and I was accustomed to put it in on a little sail-boat on the bay. One day I ventured too far, and was carried out to sea. Just at nightfall, when hope was about gone, I was picked up by a small brig which was bound for London. And now, I have nothing in my pocket.A: Great!Henry: great? I cant understand you, sir.B: Im sure you will understand very soon. Here is an envelope.(从抽屉拿出支票)Henry: whats this? (说着,我就要打开)B: no, no, no, there is some money, but you wouldnt open it until 2:00pm. (这期间,俩兄弟边交谈边吃纸袋里的零食,我不断瞟着这些美味,实在忍不住了, )Henry: Could I have some?A: of course. oh, sorry. Its empty.(他在袋子里吹了口气,然后砸烂。 确实空了。 ) (拉铃,有人过来领 Henry 出去)Waiter:This way, please.Chapter2(站在餐厅窗外用渴望的眼神看着食物。考虑会儿,整理一下衣服走进去。 )Proprietor:That ones reserved.This way,please. Take this gentlemans order,Horace.(先坐在一处,再做到另一处。看一下钟 1 点,waier 过来点菜。 )Henry: Ill have some ham and eggs,and a nice big juice steak with all the trimmings ,and make it extra thick.Waiter:Itll cost a tidy bit.Henry:Thats understood.And a long cool tankard of ale.(手做出比划)(上菜,如饥似渴地吃。连汁都不放过。吃完,再看时间,1 点半。呼唤 waiter)Henry: Er .Waiter,Same thing again ,please.Waiter:Again?Henry:Thats right .And fill that up.Anything wroing?Waiter: No,No,sir. (走到柜台与老板讨论)Waiter: HEs asked for another portion.Ale and all.Proprietor: Do you think he can pay?Maggie:Well have to chance it.Proprietor :Serve him,Horace.But dont spare the gristle.(继续吃。时间过到 1 点 55。 )(waiter 过来埋单)Waiter: Ham ,eggs,steak,potatoes,beans,carrots tiwce.Trifle,Cheese,Coffee.Two quarts of ale.Three and tenpence.(撕下单子给 Henry.)Henry: Thank you .Would you mind waiting just a few minutes?(看钟)Waiter: Whats there to wait for?(老板走过来,叉着腰看着 Henry)Proprietor:All right,Horace!Henry: That was a wonderful meal. You konw ,its amazing how much pleasure you get out of simple things . If have had to get along without them for a while .Proprietor: Very intresting .And now perhaps if youd pay the bill,I could attend to the other customers.Henry: That clock of yours ,is it correct ?Proprietor: If anything ,its fast.Henry: Its fast? How fast?Customer:Two minutes.Henry: Oh ,thank you .Proprietor: Now ,I dont wish to be unpleasant,but would please settle the bill?Henry: I want to.

(跑到柜台)Proprietor:Maggie ,look.(Maggie 尖叫)DO you think its real?(望向 Henry)Maggie: Ask Mr.Clements.(Proprietor 跑向 Mr.Clements)Proprietor: Mr.Clements.erMr.Clements.Mr.Clements: Whats it ?Proprietor: Would you mind just looking at this ? (Mr.Clements 用放大镜看。Henry 看过来)Proprietor:Do you think it is genuine?Mr.Clements: Two notes of this denomination have been issued,but in any case its hardly likely to be a forgery.Maggie: Why not ?Mr.Clements: It would draw too much attention to the owner .No forger want that .Maggie:But look at the owner ,Mr.Clements,he is in rags!(三人看向 Henry)(Henry 检查信封)Mr.Clements: I can only assume hes a eccentric millionaire.Proprietor: An eccentric millionaire!(惊讶语气)Maggie: ANd you put him at the back of the room.Go and attend to him at once.(Proprietor 走向 Henry)Proprietor: Im sorry ,sir,I cannot change the note.(把支票给回 Henry)Henry: Oh, but it is all I have on me.Proprietor:All!
