新人教版英语选修七第三单元Reading译文 虎鲸老汤姆 1902年6月,我开始在捕鲸站里工作,那时我才16岁。在此之前我曾经听说过虎鲸每年帮助捕鲸人捕捉大鲸鱼。当时我以为只是一个故事罢了,但是后来我亲眼见过多次。 有天下午我来到捕鲸站,正在找住处的时候,听到从海湾那边传来一阵喧闹声。我们及时赶到岸边,看到对面有一个庞大的动物猛力跃出海面,然后又坠落到水里。它黑白相间,样子像鱼,但我知道它并不是鱼。 “那是老汤姆,是虎鲸。”一位叫乔治的捕鲸人高声对我说,“它是在告诉我们那边有一头鲸,叫我们去捕猎。” 另外一位捕鲸人大声喊叫,“快走啊……走啊”,这是宣告猎鲸行动马上就要开始的呼声。 “克兰西,快来,上船去。”乔治在我前面边跑边说。我以前就听说过,乔治不喜欢等人,所以尽管我还没有穿上合适的衣服,就跟在他后面跑起来。 一刻不停地,我们和其他捕鲸人都跳进渔船,朝海湾方向驶去。我朝水里望去,可以看到老汤姆就在渔船旁边游着,为我们指路。几分钟之后,汤姆不见了,于是乔治开始用浆拍打水面。汤姆出现了,转回到船边,又领着我们前往捕猎处。 通过望远镜,我们可以看到远处有情况发生了。走近一看,原来是一头大鲸受到约六、七条虎鲸的攻击。 我问乔治,“它们在干什么呢?” “啊,它们在协同作战呢——那些虎鲸正在往那头鲸的出气孔上扑去,不让它呼吸,而其他那些虎鲸则阻止它潜水或逃跑。”乔治一边指着捕猎的情景,一边告诉我。就在这时候,最精彩的场面出现了。虎鲸们在我们的渔船和那头鲸之间开始追逐了,就像一群发狂的猎狗一样。 于是,猎鲸叉准备好了。站在船头的那个人把叉瞄准了那头鲸,扔了出去,恰好击中了要害,鲸受了重伤,没过多久就死了。过了片刻,鲸的尸体就被虎

新人教版英语选修七第二单元Reading的课文译文 包君满意 拉里.贝尔蒙特在一家生产机器人的公司里工作。最近,该公司要对一个家用机器人进行试验。这项试验将由拉里的夫人克莱尔来尝试。 克莱尔并不想把机器人留在家里,特别是在她丈夫离家三周的这个期间。但是克莱尔被拉里说服了。他说,机器人不会伤害她。这样会是个意外的收获。然而她初次见到机器人的时候就感到有点儿吃惊。机器人名叫托尼,看上去更像一个人,而不像台机器。他虽然面部表情毫无变化,但是个子高大、相貌英俊,头发平整,声音低沉浑厚。 第二天早晨,托尼戴着围裙,给她端来了早餐,然后问她是否需要帮忙穿衣打扮。她感到有点儿不好意思,很快就打发他走了。机器人如此通人性,这使她觉得心烦和害怕。 有一天,克莱尔说起,她觉得她自己并不聪明。托尼则说,克莱尔一定是很不高兴,才会说出这样的话来。克莱尔觉得,机器人会向她表示同情,这有点荒唐可笑。但是她开始信任托尼了。她告诉托尼她太胖了,这让她很不高兴。还有对于像拉里这样很想提高社会地位的人来说,她的家也不够高雅。她跟格拉迪丝.克拉芬不一样,格拉迪丝是远近闻名的有钱有势的女人。 托尼为让克莱尔高兴,答应帮助她,使她变得漂亮,使她的家变得高雅大方。于是克莱尔从图书馆借来一堆书给托尼阅读,或者说给他浏览一下。她惊奇地看着他的手指翻动着书页,忍不住突然伸出手来摸他的手指。他的手指甲和他那柔软温暖的皮肤使她感到大为惊异。她在想,这是多么可笑啊,他只不过是台机器呀! 托尼给克莱尔换了个发型,又改变了化妆风格。因为不允许托尼陪克莱尔去商店,所以托尼就给她写了一份购物清单。克莱尔进城去买了窗帘、坐垫、地毯和床上用品。然后她去了一家珠宝店买项链。柜台售货员对她很粗鲁,她就打电话给托尼,让售货员同托尼讲话。售货员马上就改变了态度。克莱尔对托尼表示感谢,并说他是个“可爱的人”。她刚一转过身去,就看到格拉迪丝.克
