His appearance was identical to his mother, Anyone could identify that he was her son. The

29、 identification was quite easy. It would be ideal if only Joseph was not a deaf mute. He was an illiterate child, i.e. he was ignorant. It seemed that the boy liked to idle away his time. He often ate icy ice-cream for an hour! It was illegal to discriminate against disabled people. But such things

30、happened everyday. Joseph's mother ignored others scoffing. In her eyes, Joseph was a boy of rich imagination. She gave us an illustration. Joseph liked books full of illustrations. Though all the characters in the books were imaginary, he liked them so much. He even could imitate them perfectly

31、. One night, Joseph's mother was woken up by her son. Joseph approached a firework to ignite it. The firework illuminated the night sky. Then, Joseph gave his mother a picture. It was her image!

33、虽然书中的人物都是虚构的，他还是非常喜欢他们。他甚至能惟妙惟肖地模仿他们。一天夜里，约瑟夫的母亲被儿子弄醒了。约瑟夫*近一个烟花去引燃它。烟花照亮了夜空。接着，约瑟夫送给母亲一幅画。是她的肖像!他为她画的!哦，你可以想像他的母亲是多么惊讶。她立刻紧紧抱住她的儿子。你可能不相信，但这是真的约瑟夫后来成为了一名富有想像力的美术家!七、In the 1950s, many immigrants from other countries came to this country.

None of them would be immune. It also said that some immigrants should be imprisoned because they had seized

35、 an immense amount of money from the local people. The implication of its statement was to give the immigrants an implicit threat.  The immigrants seemed to be immune to the threat. Comparing the threat to a kind of disease, they were immune to it. But silence didn't imply consent. The

36、 President recognized the importance to improve on the relationship between the two sides. He was a person who was rather impartial. So the people had implicit trust in him. He said, "We cannot do improper things on an impulse. It is impossible to impose our wishes on somebody else. The governm

38、。报纸首先不耐烦了。它怂恿政府向所有移民征税，一个也不能豁免。它还说一些移民应该给监禁起来，因为他们从当地人手中掠夺了巨大的钱财。这项申明的含意是要给移民一个不言明的恐吓。移民们好像对这种恐吓不受影响。如果把这种恐吓比作一种病毒的话，他们对它免疫。但沉默不意指默认。总统意识到改进双方关系的重要性。他是一个相当公正的人。人民对他有无疑问的信任。他说：“我们不能凭冲动而做不适当的事情。把我们的意愿强加给别人是不可能的。政府正贯彻一项新的政策采帮助失业者。接着我们还将进口更多的科技工具来改进我们的工作效率。”他那让人印象深刻的演讲给了人们推动力，使国家重新团结在一起。八、Last year, Mr.

39、 Hardy's factory incorporated with a chemical plant. The workers' job was to remove impurities from the silver. Mr. Hardy's income had increased 200 % over the last year. Incidentally, it didn't include his new house. That was incredible. His high cost of living index incurred a pros

40、ecutor's suspicion. What was the incidence of the tax? Why was Mr. Hardy's office inaccessible to anyone else? His investigation was indicative of his interest in this problem. And his independent thinking helped him to find the truth. The index to the factory's accounts indicated that M

41、r. Hardy defalcated. The workers were inclined to believe him innocent. But the fact became increasingly apparent. Mr. Hardy was a grafter indeed. Mr. Hardy was totally incapable. He did not fulfill his individual responsibility at all. An indispensable trial was held. There were fifty people presen

42、t, inclusive of some workers. Mr. Hardy's explanation was inadequate. His manner was very indifferent. The workers were indignant. To their indignation, he had cheated them.

43、cline. His car rolled over then exploded. The incident remained very clearly in the witnesses' minds.去年，哈迪先生的工厂与一家化工厂合并了。工人们的工作是去掉银金属里的杂质。哈迪先生的收入去年增加了 200。顺便提及，这还不包括他的一幢新房。那是不可思议的。他的高生活消费指数招致了一名检察官的怀疑;税收发生在谁身上?为什么哈迪先生的办公室其他任何人都达不到?他的调查暗示了他在这个问题上的兴趣。而他的独立思考帮助他找到事情真相。工厂账目的索引表明哈迪先生贪污。工人们倾向于相信他是无辜的。

44、但事实日益明显。哈迪先生实际上是个贪污犯。作为一个董事来说，哈迪先生完全无能。他根本没有履行他个人的职责。必不可少的审讯举行了。有50人在场，包括一些工人在内。哈迪先生的解释很不充足。他的态度又非常冷淡。工人们很愤慨。让他们愤慨的是他欺骗了他们。审讯之后，哈迪先生在室内待了整整一个下午。然后他开车出去了。他走的那条路有一个很陡的斜坡。他的车子翻转然后爆炸了。这场事故深深印在目击者的脑海里。九、This country was an industrial country. The industry was beginning its initial prosperity. The western

47、though hard work induced tiredness; Mr. Spencer had no feeling of inertia. No one could induce him to leave his office except his son, a lovely infant, Mr. Spencer researched the ingredients of the infant's food. He kept his son from the infectious flu. He taught him the initial letter of the wo

48、rd "London" was L. Teaching infants took infinite patience. Fortunately, his son inherited the father's' ingenious mind. Sometimes they drove out to a hill. The car would move faster and faster down the hill because of inertia. And the boy often broke into an infectious laugh. The

49、family lived a district thickly inhabited. The inhabitants there all liked this little boy.这个国家是一个工业国家。工业开始了它最初的繁荣。西城区是高度工业化的地区。斯宾森先生在那儿的一家工厂工作。因为他相信成功来自勤奋，他是非常勤奋的。他对感应电流和感应电场有着内在的兴趣。斯宾森先生研制了一种红外线医疗工具。他从市场调查推断它具有很高的市场价值。斯宾森先生向老板报告了这个重要的信息。他的老板在政界还是颇有影响的。虽然老板担心不可避免的通货膨胀可能会影响工厂，他还是鼓励下属生产这项新产品。即使辛苦的工作会

50、导致疲劳，斯宾森先生没有任何惰性的感觉。没人能劝使他离开办公室，除了他的儿子，一个可爱的幼儿。斯宾森先生研究幼儿食品的成分。他不让儿子得传染性流感。他教儿子“伦敦”的词首的字母是L。教育孩子需要无限的耐心。幸亏他的儿子继承了父亲机灵的思维。有时他们开车去一座小山。车子下山时会因为惯性而越来越快。于是男孩就会爆发出有感染力的大笑。这个家庭住在一个人口居住稠密的地区。那里的居民都很喜欢这个小男孩。十、An incident happened in an inland town. An innocent child died oddly in an inn. His mother was injur

51、ed badly too. A doctor injected the drug into her arm to help her calm down. Since no other people were present, the mother was suspected. The suspicion was a severe injury to her heart.

52、 He inquired the way of a local person. Upon inquiry, he learnt that the inn was near an inlet. The police had blocked the inlet to the inn. A policeman took the inspector to an inner room. He inserted the key into the lock then opened it. The inspector saw the woman. She insisted on her innocence.

53、The inspector's inner feelings told him that she was innocent. The woman said that on that night they were sleeping when innumerable insects flew into the room. Then she lost her consciousness. The inspector inputted the information of the insects into a computer. He found out that the insect wa

54、s the killer! It was a kind of poisonous insect. To avoid more tragedies, the inspector initiated an innovation. He was the initiative person of the innovation. His wife was a constant inspiration to him. Inspired by the lamp, the inspector installed an electrical installation to attract that kind o

55、f insect. Once it touched the installation, it would die.一个事情发生在内陆的一个小镇。一名天真的孩子在一个客栈蹊跷地死了。他的母亲也受到严重损伤。一名医生在她的手臂上注射药物帮助她镇静。因为没有其他人在现场，这位母亲受到怀疑。这种怀疑对她心灵是严重的伤害。失去儿子造成了她情绪不稳定。一名检查员被派去调查此事。他是一个很有洞察力的人。他向当地人询问道路。在询问之后，他知道了客栈在一个水湾附近。警方已经封锁了客栈的入口。一名警察带检查员去了一个里面的房间。他插入钥匙打开了门。检查员看见了那名妇女。她坚持她的清白。检查员内心的感觉告诉他她是无罪的。妇女说，那天晚上他们在睡觉时有无数的昆虫飞进房间，然后她失去了知觉。检查员把昆虫的信息输入电脑。
