The Bank of England once issued two notes of a million pounds each, to be used for a special purpose connected with some public transaction with a foreign country. For some reason or other only one of these had been used and canceled; the other still lay in the bank.
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 a million-pound bank-note, and no way to account for his being in possession of it? Would he starve to death or not? Would he get arrested if he tried to change it? Could he live for a month without being sent to jail?
The brothers could not agree on the fate of the young man, so they made a bet, which was a quite
common way to settle a problem at that time in Britain. Step Four 猜测故事情节发展，激发学生对本剧本的兴趣。

Henry gets a letter with money in from the brothers. What will he most probably do with it after he leaves the brothers’ house? Why?Step Two Reading
1. Scanning
Answer the questions by looking at the picture and glancing at the beginning and ending of the text.
1) What does he really do after he leaves the brothers?
2) What food does he order?
3) Does he get into any trouble with the note after the meal?2. Skimming（两个任务）
Read the scene carefully, get the detailed information and find the answers to the questions.
1) Why does Henry ask the waiter to wait for just a few minutes?
2) Why does the owner ask the waiter to go away and take care of the matter himself?
3) Who is Mr. Clemens in the play?
4) Can the note be fake? Why or why not?
5) What do they think of Henry who is in rags after seeing the note?
6) Where is Henry’s seat in the restaurant? Why do they ask him to sit there?
7) How much does Henry pay for the meal?Compare the attitudes of the owner and hostess before and after Henry shows the bank note.Step Three Post-reading
1) Analyze the stage directions, what is the usage of them, to show the speaker’s tone of voice or the behavior?
2) What does the owner mean by saying “We’ll see if he’s clever as a wolf?” and “We will have to take a chance?
3) Find some examples that show the famous writing style of Mark Twain’s--humor and satire.
4) Suppose you were in Henry’s situation, what would you continue to do?Some examples that show the famous writing style of Mark Twain’s--humor and satire.
First, the change in attitude of the owner, the hostess and the waiter when Henry produces a large bank-note they cannot change. So in fact Henry does get a free meal with the note (because they trust him to pay when he can get change) although the restaurant owner would have denied trusting him to pay his meal without it.
(Second, the introduction of Mr. Clemens into the story is also humorous to those people who know that Mark Twain, the writer and Sam Clemens are one and the same. He is there as an authority on whether the bank-note is real or not and also as an observer within his own story.) Step Four
Listen to the tape, pay attention to the expressions used in a restaurant and those used to order food.
That one’s reserved.
Take this gentleman’s order.
I’d like some ham and eggs and a nice big steak.
I’ll have a nice tall glass of beer.
All right. That’s two orders of ham and egg…Step Five Acting
