    Dreams of finding lost treasure almost came true recently. A new machine called 'The Revealer' has been invented and it has been used to detect gold which has been buried in the ground. The machine was used in a cave near the seashore where -- it is said -- pirates used to hide gold. The pirates would often bury gold in the cave and then fail to collect it. Armed with the new machine, a search party went into the cave hoping to find buried treasure. The leader of the party was examining the soil near the entrance to the cave when the machine showed that there was gold under the ground. Very excited, the party dug a hole two feel deep. They finally found a small gold coin which was almost worthless. The party then searched the whole cave thoroughly but did not find anything except an empty tin trunk. In spite of this, many people are confident that 'The Revealer' may reveal something of value fairly soon.

    近，找到失蹤寶藏的夢想差一點兒變成現(xiàn)實。一種叫“探寶器”的新機器已經(jīng)發(fā)明出來，并被人們用來探測地下埋藏的金子。在靠近海邊的一個據(jù)說過去海盜常在里面藏金子的巖洞里，這種機器被派上了用場。海盜們過去常把金子埋藏在那個洞里，可后來卻沒能取走。一支用這種新機器裝備起來的探寶隊進(jìn)入了這個巖洞，希望找到埋藏著的金子。當(dāng)這個隊的隊長正在檢查洞口附近的土壤時，那臺機器顯示出它的下面埋有金子。隊員們異常激動，就地挖了一個兩英尺深的坑，但后找到的是一枚幾乎一錢不值的小金幣。隊員們接著又把整個洞徹底搜尋了一遍，但除了一只空鐵皮箱外什么也沒找到。盡管如此，很多人仍然相信“探寶器”很快就會探出值錢的東西來。

    Once a year, a race is held for old cars. A lot of cars entered for this race last year and there was a great deal of excitement just before it began. One of the most handsome cars was a Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost. The most unusual car was a Benz which had only three wheels. Built in 1885, it was the oldest car taking part. After a great many loud explosions, the race began. Many of the cars broke down on the course and some drivers spent more time under their cars than in them! A few cars, however, completed the race. The winning car reached a speed of forty miles an hour -- much faster than any of its rivals. It sped downhill at the end of the race and its driver had a lot of trouble trying to stop it. The race gave everyone a great deal of pleasure. It was very different from modern car races but no less exciting.

    舊式汽車的比賽每年舉行。去年有很多汽車參加了這項比賽。比賽開始之前，人們異常激動。漂亮的汽車之一是羅爾斯--羅伊斯生產(chǎn)的銀鬼汽車，而不尋常的一輛則要屬只有3只輪子的奔馳牌汽車了。該車造于1885年，是參賽車中老的一輛。在好一陣喧鬧的爆炸聲之后，比賽開始了。很多汽車在途中就拋了錨，而有些駕駛員花在汽車底下的時間比坐在汽車?yán)锩娴臅r間還長。然而還是有幾輛汽車跑完了全程。獲勝的那輛車達(dá)到了時速40英里--遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)超過任何對手。它在接近終點時，沖下了山坡，駕駛員費了好大勁才把車停下來。這次比賽使每個人都挺開心。它雖然與現(xiàn)代汽車比賽大不相同，但激動人心的程度并不亞于現(xiàn)代化汽車大賽。

    A woman in jeans stood at the window of an expensive shop. Though she hesitated for a moment, she finally went in and asked to see a dress that was in the window. The assistant who served her did not like the way she was dressed. Glancing at her scornful, he told her that the dress was sold. The woman walked out of the shop angrily and decided to punish the assistant next day. She returned to the shop the following morning dressed in a fur coat, with a handbag in one hand and a long umbrella in the other.After seeking out the rude assistant, she asked for the same dress. Not realizing who she was, the assistant was eager to serve her this time. With great difficulty, he climbed into the shop window to get the dress.
