The workers stood on board, accepting the blessing from the priest. He bid them good luck. Its springtime. Flowers were blooming (blossoming) all over the island. The engineer who took charge of the team was Dan. He wasnt interested in biology so he chose technology. After they arrived, Dan took out a blank sheet of paper to calculate the expense. It would cost them more than one billion dollars to complete the project. The first work was to move a big rock. The tools were too blunt, so they decided to blast it. A bold worker boasted that he could do it well. But he made an awful blunder. The trees around the rock caught fire suddenly. The workers were unable to control the blaze. Its a bloody accident that caused five people to be injured, including Dan. Dan bound the cloth around his head to stop bleeding. Then he took some bitter pills. After that, he drank some blend of whisky and wine together with some biscuits. The worker blushed when he saw Dan in the boiler room. But Dan didnt scold him. Instead, they needed a bolt to fit the valve. According to a biography about Dan, we know finally they completed the project successfully. 政府决定在一座荒凉的小岛和市区之间建一座桥。几个公司为竞争合同而投标。其中一家赢了。工人站在船上，接受来自牧师的祝福。他祝福他们好运。时值春天，整个岛上的花儿正在开花。掌管队伍的是工程师丹。他对生物学不感兴趣，因此他选择了工程学。他们到达之后，丹取出一张空白的纸来计算开支。要完成工程需要不只十亿美元。首先的任务是移开一块巨石。工具太钝，他们决定炸开它。一个大胆的工人吹嘘他能很好完成任务。但他犯了一个糟糕的大错误。巨石周边的树突然着起火来。工人们无法控制火焰。那是一场血腥的事故，包括丹在内有五人受伤。丹用布包扎头部制止流血。接着他吃了些很苦的药。然后他就着饼干喝了些威士忌和酒的混合物。那名工人在锅炉房见到丹时脸红了。但丹没有责怪他，反而和他一起检查现场。于是他们弄清了他们需要一个螺栓来固定阀门。根据一篇关于丹的传记，我们知道他们最终顺利完成了工程。 Since last year, the agriculture in this village had boomed. The boughs of trees were loaded with fruit. The workers worked hard and got bonuses. John was one of them. His neighbor, Mrs. Morris, had a son who walked with the help of a brace. Even though, the boy liked to bounce up and down. The friendship formed a friendly bond between the two families. Theyd like to discuss something like public bond sometimes. One day, when John was working, Mrs. Morris called him from a telephone booth. She was crying, “My son fell into the river! Please save him!” It sounded like a bomb exploding in Johns heart. He rushed to the bank. He was bound to find the boy. The river formed the boundary between the two countries. To pass across the border, one must go through customs. “Brace yourself for the danger! ” some boring people tried to boycott his action. But John took off his boots and dived into the river. He showed great bravery in saving th drowning child and he succeeded. He held the boy to his bosom and went back. His dog came bounding to meet him. Mrs. Morris bowed as she appreciated him so much. She took out a brass box, in which there was a bottle of brandy made in France. Its one of the most popular brands. It had a regular breadth of its bottom. Then Mrs. Morris bored a hole in the bottle cork to pull it out. After the meal, the mother said to the son, “Put the date in brackets on the paper. Do remember today, my boy.” 从去年说起，这个村庄的农业就迅速发展了。大树枝上挂满了水果。工人们努力工作并获得奖金。约翰是其中一个。他的邻居，莫里斯太太有一个*托架帮忙走路的儿子。尽管如此，男孩还是喜欢上下弹跳。友谊在两家之间形成了一个友好的结合。他们有时会喜欢谈谈公共债券什么的。一天，当约翰在工作时，莫里斯太太从一个电话亭给他打了一个电话。他哭着说：“我的儿子掉到河里去了，请救救他！”这话就像一颗炸弹在约翰心中爆炸了。他冲到河边。他一定要找到这个孩子。河流是两国的分界线。若想通过边界的话，一定要过海关。“防备危险！”，一些讨厌的人试图联合抵制他的行为。但约翰脱下长统靴跳入河流。他展现了他非凡的勇敢并成功的救起了男孩。他将孩子抱在胸口回去了。他的狗跳跃着迎接他。莫里斯太太向他鞠躬，她太感激他了。她取出一只黄铜盒子，里面有一瓶法国制造的白兰地酒。那是一个非常有名的牌子，它的瓶底有着标准的宽度。接着莫里斯太太将瓶塞钻了个孔将它拔出来。饭后，母亲对儿子说：“把日子填到纸上的括号里。记住今天，我的孩子。” It was a nice night. Stars were billiant in the clear night sky. A breeze blew over the garden. We just had chicken breast for supper. I was telling my families about my travel when Bill broke in with a story of his. He was sorry to arrive late because his car broke down. So he had to ride on a horse. Though his horse was of the best breed he had ever bred., the hundreds of miles run left Bill out of breath. He pulled the brim of his hat down over his eyes then began. A man loved a girl very much. On May 1,she would be his bride. But he was put into prison and her family broke off relations with him. He was locked at a room where the window was bricked up. On the last day of April, the man bribed a policeman to let him go free.

The criminals had little difficulty in breaking through the pass. They broke away from the prison successfully!. In brief, the story was exciting. It made all of us catch our breath. 那是一个很好的夜晚。星星在夜空中光辉灿烂。一阵微风吹过花园。我们刚吃过鸡胸肉晚饭。我正在给家人讲我的旅行的时候，比尔插嘴讲了一个他知道的故事。他很抱歉他来迟了，因为他的车损坏了。于是他不得不骑马。虽然他的马是他饲养过的最好的品种，但好几百英里的奔波也使比尔上起不接下气。他把帽沿拉至眼帘然后开始讲述：“一个男子非常爱一个女孩。5月1日，她将成为他的新娘。但他背关入监狱并且她的家人和他断绝关系。他被锁在一个窗户被用砖堵死的房间。4月的最后一天，那个男子贿赂一名警员让他出去。接着，她和其他的罪犯闯入了军械库拿走了20只来复枪。于是一场争斗不可避免地爆发了。警方试图拆散人群但失败了。罪犯们不费劲地突破了关口。他们成功地逃离了监狱！.”简言之,这个故事非常刺激.它让我们大家都屏息凝听.

Our brows went up in surprise. And Jennys composedness brought forth a positive effect. We calmed down and then we cleaned the room with a broom, a mop and a bucket. Suddenly, I noticed there was a bronze sword on the wall. Jenny said she had been to Britain and it was a gift from a British friend.
