马克·吐温对生活上的一些琐事常常心不在焉。一天，
他坐火车外出，列车员查票时，他翻遍口袋也没找
到车票。 列车员认出是作家马克·吐温时，很有礼
貌地说：“要是真找不到票也没关系。”
马克·吐温却说：“那可不行啊，我一定要找到那该
死的东西，要不然我怎么知道我去哪儿呢。”
妙答解尴尬?? 有一次，马克吐温应邀赴宴。席间，他对一位夫人
说：“你太漂亮了，夫人。”不料，那夫人却说：“很遗
憾，我不能用同样的话回答你。”头脑机敏,言词犀利
的马克吐温笑着说：“这没关系，你也可以和我一样说
假话。” 1.Pre-readingA brief introduction to the story《百万英镑》是马克·吐温的一篇有名的小说，描绘了美国的一个小办事员出海游玩，迷失方向后，幸运遇救，随船来到英国伦敦。他身无分文，举目无亲，两个富有的兄弟给了他一张一百万镑的钞票，并以他在三十天内凭这张百万英镑的钞票能否活下去而打赌。在小说的结尾，小人物不仅活过了三十天，并且利用这张百万英镑发了一笔财，还获得了一位小姐的芳心。小说通过小办事员的种种“历险”嘲弄了金钱在资产阶级社会叱咤风云、呼风唤雨的作用。作者用漫画笔法勾勒了不同人物在“百万英镑”面前的种种丑态，幽默滑稽，趣味横生，就如同一幅世态讽刺画，令人忍俊不禁。课文是小说的开始部分：
一对富豪兄弟用一张面值百万英镑的现钞打赌，看这张钞票究竟会给人带来无尽的财富还是只是一张一文不值的“小纸片”。? ? 很快，从美国来的亚当进入了富豪兄弟的视线。这个人的船在海上触礁沉没，他靠给其他船只做工来抵押船票才到了英国。现在他身无分文、饥饿难忍，这样一个穷人是再适合不过的人选了。于是亚当被请进了富豪家中。? ? 富豪兄弟给了亚当百万钞票，并和他约定在一个月的时间里，亚当可以任意使用。但一个月后他必须把钞票原样不动地还给富豪，这样他可以得到富豪们为他提供的任何一份他想从事的工作。亚当糊里糊涂地接受了约定。Describe Mark Twain according to the chart.1835Florida Hannibal, Missouri,along the Mississipi RiverPrinter, riverboat pilot, soldier, gold miner,businessman, newspaper reporter, writerThe Adventures of Tom Sawyer, The Adventures of Huckleberry; Life On The MississipiIts description of common people and the way they talked and his humorHome work预习课文，完成P19练习1

For some reason or other only one of these had been used and canceled; the other still lay in the vaults of the Bank. Well, the brothers, chatting along, happened to get to wondering what might be the fate of a perfectly honest and intelligent stranger who should be turned adrift in London without a friend, and with no money but that million-pound bank-note, and no way to account for his being in possession of it. Brother A said he would starve to death; Brother B said he wouldn't. Brother A said he couldn't offer it at a bank or anywhere else, because he would be arrested on the spot. So they went on disputing till Brother B said he would bet twenty thousand pounds that the man would live thirty days. They thought "me" to be the right person,?a poor, honestand intelligent stranger. They handed me an envelope that contained ￡1,000,000 Bank-note. "I", dressed in rag, with nothing but a banknote, got into a restaurant. "I" took the banknote to pay for the bill and asked for changes. The boss who looked down upon me at first changed his attitude completely. He?flattered me that?I could have anything I wanted, any time I chose, and let the account run as long as I pleased. They all treated me as an honored guest. Then "I" got into a tailor's shop, the same thing happened.?"I "drifted naturally into buying whatever I wanted, and asking for change. "I" owned?the respect and fell in love with a girl, Portia. Everything went well having ￡1,000,000 bank-note on " me". After a month, Brothers returned, to my surprise,?one of them was My Portia's papa, He took that friendly and hospitable bill back to the Bank of England and cashed it; then the Bank canceled it and made him a present of it, and he gave it to us at our wedding.Knowledge about drama/play 1.
