新概念二冊Lesson35 Stop thief!抓賊!課文講的是一個原來開出租現在開公交車的司機,路見小偷,見義勇為的故事。
Judy:大家有沒有在路上見過小偷?有沒有上前制止?(話音剛落,學生紛紛舉手。我要求大家用英語講述,這里挑兩個有趣的跟大家分享。)
學生甲:One day, my mom took a bus to a supermarket. On the bus, my mom saw a thief steal a man's pocket, then my mom shouted: What are you doing? The thief took a knife, my mom saw it and scared, then she got off the bus. The thief saw my mom get off the bus, he got off the bus,too. My mom run and run, the thief run and run,too. Then my mom run into a department store, the thief run into it, too. My mom went upstairs to 5th floor, the thief run to 5th floor, too. Then my mom run downstairs to 1st floor, the thief run to 1st floor, too. Then my mom went into a lady's room and called my dad, then my dad came and took my mom home.
(有一天,我媽媽坐車去超市。在車上,我媽看見小偷偷一個人的口袋,然后就大叫一聲:你干嘛?小偷掏出一把刀。我媽一看,嚇壞了,趕緊下車。小偷見我媽下車了,也趕緊下車了。我媽跑啊跑,小偷追啊追,我媽跑進一家百貨商店,小偷也跑進去。我媽跑上5樓,小偷追到5樓。我媽又跑到1樓,小偷追到1樓。后來我媽跑進女廁所,給我爸打電話,然后我爸來了,把我媽接回家。)
