M:Laura, what’s in the mailbox?

W:What’s that?

M: A city pass, with which she can visit 12 different attractions, including the National History Museum, the Science Museum, the zoo and more.

M:What’s special about her?

W: It was an amazing story. She brought specially trained dogs to special education schools and helped children to build confidence. She believes that dogs can help children in ways we can’t. Dogs don’t judge and they don’t care who you are or what you look like.

M:But putting dogs into a school? Aren’t they going to mess up the school?

W:Don’t worry. All the dogs are assessed and trained properly. There are now forty dogs working with children aged from six to eighteen.

M: I hope the children love them.

W: Of course they do. I’ve got some pictures. I’ll show them at my presentation tomorrow morning.

M: I notice you’ve tried many different kinds of things: film, TV, and even theater.

W:Yeah, that’show I was trained at university. I work on anything that excites me.

M:Tell us about the six months you recently spent at the workshop of the film center.

M:Thank you very much, Emily. We look forward to your new season.

W:Hi, everyone. This is the monthly meeting of our club. We’ve been fortunate to have got good advice from some famous athletes on how to improve our skills and build up our body. Today, we’ll hear something different. We’re honored to have Emma Wilson here. Emma is a health expert and lecturer from UBC, the University of British Columbia.Emma worked for a football team in Manchester, then for a very successful rugby team in Dublin, and finally ended up working here in Vancouver. Emma says it’s challenging to be a health expert, because people can be easily influenced by advertisements that lack scientific support. Also, people aren’t willing to change their views about food and nutrition as there is so much confusing information online. It’s really important to hear what experts say and that’s why we’ve invited Emma here. She isn’t going to tell us about everything we should eat, but she will teach us to make better choices. Let’s welcome Emma Wilson.

Chapter 5: Love and Rebellion

So what is Marius's idea?

It is this.

He wants to marry Cosette, but he has no money, his grandfather has money.

He must ask his grandfather, but his grandfather is an old man, and old men's ideas do not change easily.

He shouts at Marius, Marius shouts back, and that is the end of that.

The next evening, he goes as usual to the Rue Plume.

There is nobody in the garden.

The house is dark, the windows are closed, Cosette and her father are gone.

Marius cannot live without Cosette.

He wants to die, but Gavroche tells him that his friends need him.

It is June 1832, and students and workers are running through the streets of Paris, bringing rebellion to the city and everyone must fight the government.

Marius is soon at the barricades with a gun in his hand.

He is happy, death can come at any moment with a bullet from a soldier's gun.

These are dangerous times.

Jean Valjean sees Inspector Javert in a street near the Rue Plume.

What is he doing there? Are the police watching his house?

Valjean does not wait the same night, he and Cosette leave Rue Plume.

They moved to 7 Rue de l'Homme-Armé and begin to get ready for England.

How can love find a way in these troubled times?

When the soldiers attacked in front of the Arsenal building, the people turned and ran this way and that way through the streets of the city.

Marius and his friends came to the Rue de la Chanvrerie, and they built their barricade there.

It was, 2 meters high, made of wood and stone.

Behind their barricade, the rebels waited for the soldiers.

Night came,but nothing happened.

Enjolras was the leader of the students, he called Gavroche to him.

“You're small,”he said, “nobody sees you. Go and have a look round the city, and then bring us any news.”

Just after midnight, Gavroche was back.

“The soldiers aren't moving,” he said, “but there are a lot of them.”

He stopped suddenly and whispered, “Hey, who's that? That tall man over there?”

Enjolras and Marius turned to look.

“I don't know him.” said Marius.

“People are coming and going all night,” said Enjolras, “Why?Gavroche, do you know him?”

“Yes,”whispered Gavroche, “he's not one of us, he's a spy, a police spy, name of Javert. He stopped me once down by the river, put me in prison all night.”

“Are you certain about this, Gavroche?” said Marius.

“I'm certain right,”said Gavroche “he's a spy.”

The rebels did not like spies.

Four of Enjolras's men jumped on Javert, pulled him into the tavern behind the barricade, and tied him to the wall.

“Louise, shoot him now?” asked one of the men.

“Later?” said Enjolras, “he can wait.”

They went back outside to the barricade, and listened for the sound of soldiers.

Gavroche found Marius at the far end of the barricade.

“Marius,” he whispered, “on my way back here, I came past your rooms and went in.”

“Why?”whispered Marius.

“I was hungry,” said Gavroche, “the woman in your house is nice.She always gives me something to eat. But she had a letter for you. She gave it to me. It came two days ago, she said.”

“A letter, a letter from whom?”

Suddenly,there was hope in Marius's heart.

“Quick, give it to me.”

The letter was from Cosette.

“My dearest father says we must leave at once. We go tonight to 7 Rue de l'Homme-Armé, and soon to England. Oh,my dear, how can I live without you? Cosette.”

Marius read this letter four times and then kissed it.

She still loved him.

He must write back to her and say his last goodbye.

There was still no sound of soldiers in the street.

He found some paper and a pencil.

“Cosette dearest, I came to the Rue Plume, but you were gone already. We cannot marry. I went to my grandfather, and he said no. I have no money, and you have no money. I love you, I can never forget you. The fighting begins here very soon. When I am dead, don't be sad. Our love was beautiful. Marius.”

He called to Gavroche,“I want you to take this letter to the Rue de l'Homme-Armé. Can you do that for me?”

“Yes, but, but now…” said Gavroche, “I am staying here for the fighting, I can shoot too, you know?”

“Gavroche,you're just a boy, we don't want you to die in the fighting, stay away from the shooting. And this letter is very important to me. It must go now. I want you to put it into Cosette's hands. Please, Gavroche.”

“Oh, very well.”said Gavroche.

He took the letter, put it inside his shirt, and ran off into the dark.

When Valjeanand Cosette left the house in Rue Plumet, Cosette was very sad.

Valjean saw this, but he said nothing.

In the Rue de l'Homme-Armé, Cosette stayed in her bedroom, Toussaint took her meals up to her in the night.

Valjean could not sleep.

The city was quiet, but for how long?

He went outside the house and stood in the street, listening.

There were voices in the next street, and then he heard singing, a boy singing.

Gavroche came up the street, looking at the house numbers.

He saw Valjean and stopped.

“Well, young man, watch the news,” said Valjean,

“The news is now I'm hungry.” said Gavroche.

Valjean put his hand in his pocket and found a five-franc piece.

Gavroche stared at it.

He didn't see many five-franc pieces, and he was very pleased to see this one.

He put it in his pocket.

“You're all right,” he said, “Do you live in this street? Do you know number 7?”

“What do you want with number 7?” said Valjean.

“Letter for someone.” said Gavroche.

“A woman?”Valjean stared at him.

He felt cold.

“A woman.”

“Cosette”, he remembered once, the young man in the Luxembourg, he tried to smile.

“That's the letter for Cosette,” he said, “I'm waiting for it.”

“Yes, that's her. Well, here you are.” said Gavroche, “It comes from the barricade in the Rue de la Chanvrerie. I'm going back there now. Goodnight, monsieur.”

Jean Valjean went back into the house with Marius's letter.

He read it quickly.

“I love you, I can never forget you…”

So Cosette, his dear, dear daughter, was in love, she was his world.

Without her, his life was nothing, he could not even think about it.

“When I am dead, don't be sad”, those words gave him hope.

So the young man was one of the rebels at the barricade.

“When the soldiers start shooting,” he thought, “that's the end of all the rebels. I do nothing, I say nothing, I keep this letter and poof, nothing changes in our lives.”

But Valjean did not feel easy, he remembered all their happy years as father and daughter.

And he saw again Cosette's sad eyes, when they left the Rue Plumet.

How could he take her away to England?

He turned and went out of the room.

A little later, he left the house wearing dark clothes and carrying a gun, and walked away down the street.

第五章：爱与反叛

那么，马吕斯的计划究竟是什么呢？
其实很简单。
他想娶珂赛特，但他身无分文，而他的祖父却很有钱。
他必须去求祖父，但祖父是个老人，而老人的观念是很难改变的。
祖父冲他大吼，马吕斯也毫不退让地顶嘴，结果可想而知，谈话不欢而散。

第二天傍晚，他像往常一样来到普吕梅街。
花园里空无一人。
整栋房子漆黑一片，窗户紧闭，珂赛特和她父亲已经搬走了。
没有珂赛特，马吕斯根本活不下去。
他万念俱灰，只想一死了之，但加夫罗什告诉他，他的朋友们需要他。

那是1832年6月，学生和工人们涌上巴黎的街头，将反叛的火种播撒到整座城市，所有人都起来反抗政府。
很快，马吕斯便手持火枪，站在了街垒之后。
他感到一种悲壮的决绝，因为士兵的子弹随时都可能夺走他的生命。
这是一个动荡危险的时代。

冉阿让在普吕梅街附近的一条街上看见了沙威警长。
他在那儿干什么？警察是不是在监视他的住处？
冉阿让没有等到天亮，当晚便带着珂赛特离开了普吕梅街。
他们搬到了武人街7号，并开始为前往英国做准备。
在这样的乱世之中，爱情该何去何从？

当士兵们在兵工厂大楼前发起进攻时，人群四散奔逃，在城市的街巷中四处乱窜。
马吕斯和他的朋友们来到了尚夫雷里街，在那里筑起了一座街垒。
街垒有两米多高，由木头和石头堆砌而成。
在街垒后方，起义者们严阵以待，等待着士兵的到来。
夜幕降临，但什么也没有发生。

安灼拉是学生们的领袖，他把加夫罗什叫到身边。
“你个子小，”他说，“没人会注意到你。去城里侦察一下，然后把消息带回来。”
刚过午夜，加夫罗什就回来了。
“士兵们还没行动，”他说，“但人非常多。”
他突然停下脚步，压低声音说：“嘿，那是谁？那边那个高个子男人？”
安灼拉和马吕斯转头望去。
“我不认识他。”马吕斯说。
“整晚都有人在街垒周围走来走去，”安灼拉说，“怎么回事？加夫罗什，你认识他吗？”
“认识，”加夫罗什悄声说，“他不是我们的人，是个密探，警察的密探，名叫沙威。他有一次在河边把我拦住，把我关了一整夜。”
“你确定吗，加夫罗什？”马吕斯问。
“我百分之百确定，”加夫罗什说，“他就是个密探。”
起义者们最痛恨密探。
安灼拉手下的四个人猛扑向沙威，把他拽进街垒后面的酒馆，牢牢地绑在墙上。
“路易，现在就把他毙了吗？”其中一个人问。
“晚点再说，”安灼拉说，“他可以先留着。”
他们回到街垒外，继续倾听是否有士兵逼近的脚步声。

加夫罗什在街垒的尽头找到了马吕斯。
“马吕斯，”他低声说，“我回来的路上，经过你的住处，就顺便进去了一趟。”
“去干什么？”马吕斯问。
“我饿了，”加夫罗什说，“你屋里的那个女人人挺好的，总是给我点吃的。不过她有一封给你的信。她说那是两天前到的，就交给了我。”
“一封信？谁的信？”
马吕斯的心里突然燃起了一丝希望。
“快，给我！”
那是珂赛特写来的信。
“我最亲爱的父亲说我们必须立刻离开。我们今晚就要搬到武人街7号，很快就会去英国。哦，亲爱的，没有你我该怎么活？珂赛特。”
马吕斯把信读了四遍，然后深深地吻了它。
她依然爱着他。
他必须给她写封回信，作最后的道别。

街上依然没有士兵的动静。
他找来纸笔。
“我最亲爱的珂赛特：我去了普吕梅街，但你们已经走了。我们无法结婚了。我去求了祖父，但他拒绝了。我没有钱，你也没有。我爱你，我永远无法将你忘记。这里的战斗马上就要打响了。当我死后，请不要悲伤。我们的爱是美好的。马吕斯。”
他叫来加夫罗什：“我想让你把这封信送到武人街。你能帮我这个忙吗？”
“能是能，但现在……”加夫罗什说，“我要留在这里参加战斗，你知道吗，我也能开枪的？”
“加夫罗什，你只是个孩子，我们不想让你死在战场上，离枪林弹雨远点。而且这封信对我来说至关重要。它必须立刻送出。我要你亲手交到珂赛特手里。求你了，加夫罗什。”
“哦，那好吧。”加夫罗什说。
他接过信，把它塞进衬衫里，一头扎进了黑夜中。

当冉阿让和珂赛特离开普吕梅街的住处时，珂赛特伤心欲绝。
冉阿让看在眼里，却什么也没说。
在武人街的住处，珂赛特把自己关在卧室里，夜里由老女仆杜桑把饭菜端上去给她。
冉阿让无法入睡。
城市虽然安静，但这平静又能维持多久呢？
他走出屋子，站在街上侧耳倾听。
邻街传来了人声，接着他又听到了歌声，是一个男孩在唱歌。
加夫罗什顺着街道走来，一边走一边看着门牌号。
他看见了冉阿让，便停了下来。
“小伙子，有什么消息吗？”冉阿让问。
“现在的消息就是：我饿了。”加夫罗什回答。
冉阿让把手伸进口袋，摸出一枚五法郎的硬币。
加夫罗什盯着那枚硬币。
他很少能见到五法郎的硬币，看到它让他非常高兴。
他把硬币装进口袋。
“你人不错，”他说，“你住在这条街上吗？你知道7号在哪儿吗？”
“你找7号干什么？”冉阿让问。
“给里面的人送信。”加夫罗什说。
“是给一位女士的吗？”冉阿让紧紧盯着他。
他感到一阵寒意。
“是给一位女士的。”
“珂赛特……”他想起了卢森堡公园里的那个年轻人，勉强挤出一丝微笑。
“那是给珂赛特的信，”他说，“我在等这封信。”
“对，就是给她的。喏，给你。”加夫罗什说，“信是从尚夫雷里街的街垒送来的。我现在得回去了。晚安，先生。”

冉阿让拿着马吕斯的信回到了屋里。
他飞快地看了一遍。
“我爱你，我永远无法将你忘记……”
原来，他亲爱的女儿恋爱了。她就是他的一切。
如果没有她，他的生命将毫无意义，他甚至不敢去想那种可能。
“当我死后，请不要悲伤”，这句话给了他一丝希望。
原来，那个年轻人就是街垒里的起义者之一。
“一旦士兵们开火，”他想，“那些起义者就全完了。我什么都不做，什么都不说，只要把这封信藏起来，然后‘噗’的一下，我们俩的生活就不会有任何改变。”
但冉阿让的心里并不踏实。他回想起了他们作为父女相伴的那些快乐岁月。
他又看到了离开普吕梅街时，珂赛特那双悲伤的眼睛。
他怎么能就这样把她强行带到英国去呢？
他转过身，走出了房间。

M: Jenny, you can just drop me here.
W: But we are two streets away from the office.
M: It's fine. I had a big breakfast, and feel like a bit of walk.

Text 2
W: Hello, George. You look tired. Didn't sleep well last night?
M: No, not at all. I had to work flat out to meet the project deadline. Now I'm really feeling a bit run-down.

Text 3
W: John, can't we go someplace and talk? It's so noisy in here.
M: Well, there is a small park across the street. It's usually not crowded at this time of day.

Text 4
W: We've got to do something about the neighbor's dog.
M: Why? Has he been into your flower garden again?
W: The flower garden, the garbage can and yesterday he started digging holes in the yard.

Text 5
M: Hello, we have a reservation in the name of Mr. Johns. Is there any table by the window?
W: Sorry, we've got this corner table for you. It's quiet here, not close to the door.

Text 6
W: Dave, don't forget we are invited out to dinner tonight.
M: Oh yeah. I almost forgot. What time?
W: 7:30. We should leave the house by 6:30. You know how bad the traffic is that time of night.
M: It's informal, isn't it?

W: Good.

Text 7
M: We need to decide exactly when we're going to move. Any suggestions?
W: I think July would be the best time. Our sales are always down that month.We could move all the office equipment at a weekend—do everything at once.
M: I think a weekend's too short. Maybe we should do it department by department.
W: What do you mean?
M: Well, each week a different department will move. That way, there will always be people here to handle customer inquiries, phone calls, and so on.
W: Hmm, that's a good idea.

Text 8
W: So, Mr. Peter Sayles, I've been curious to know what were the early connections in your life that led you into the art field.
M: My grandfather was an art dealer in Munich. They had a great museum in Munich. He took me to the museum. And I responded very strongly to what I saw on the walls there. I learned about art from him. I learned about looking at art from him. I think that's what really got me started. Then, many years later, after I got out of the army, I went to study art history at the University of Chicago.
W: Tell us more about your experiences of looking at art with your grandfather.
M: Well, we looked at the famous paintings by the great artists like Rembrandt,Botticelli and Albrecht Dürer. Rubens' paintings were my favorites. Yes, I remember these things. This was when I was between 10 and 15. When I was 14, I was so anxious to see more art that a friend of mine and I bicycled across the Alps to see Venice. That was a big adventure.

Text 9
W: Hi, John! Haven't seen you for ages!
M: Hi, Susan! Fancy meeting you here on the train!
W: How is your college life?
M: What can I say? I've survived.
W: What happened?
M: Well, early last March I started doing a part-time job in a law firm. A few weeks before I had started writing my term paper. I thought I could finish it by August.
W: That was a pretty good idea trying to have some work experience.
M: For the first three weeks, you know, I tried. I got up early and worked for an hour on my paper before going to work. But work was so fun, I met tons of new people and soon I couldn't find even a minute for my paper. So, I had to quit my part-time job and finally finished my paper in October.
W: Well, it's never too late to mend. It's kind of hard to find a balance between what you have to do and what you want to do.
M: Yeah, it's really important for me to balance study and work. And I think I should learn to exercise some self-control.

Text 10
Being an athlete is very fun, painful and exciting. Every time I come to the track, I feel like I'm out of this place. This is Botswana National Stadium.This is where I train. When I saw Usa in Bolt running in 2012 London Olympics, I was amazed. Just watching him run got me motivated. I quit being a chess player and started to run. I went to the 2016 Olympics, and went to the finals at the age of 18. And, wow, I finished fifth. It was a dream come true to me, but I still wanted more. The training is super hard, but the hardest part for me is that I got an injury—an injury which may take me out for years. For a period of time, as a young athlete, I didn't know what to do. I lost focus. But now, I'm back on the track. I really want to be there at the Olympics, and do what I did before, do much, much greater. I don't care about the gold. I don't care about the silver. I want to do my best. You know, take everything and show it to the world.

Les Misérables by Victor Hugo

原文

Chapter 4: Marius

Nine years pass, Valjean and Cosette are living in the Rue Plumet in Paris,in a house with a big garden.

It is a quiet street and nobody comes there.

This pleases Valjean, because he is still afraid of Inspector Javert.

Cosette is now a young woman.

She is tall with golden brown hair.

She is beautiful, but there are many beautiful faces in the world.

The wonderful thing about Cosette's face is her smile, a slow warm gentle smile like sunlight after rain.

And now, we must meet Marius and his young friend Gavroche.

Marius is a student, a young man with many ideas but no money.

Paris is full of young men like this.

Marius has a grandfather, his father is dead,

But he does not talk to him, their political ideas are very different.

At 17, he leaves home with 30 francs, his watch and a small bag of clothes.

Now five years older, he lives with other students, and they talk all night about books and ideas, politics and government, life and death.

All students are like this.

They live for ideas and do a little work here and there when they need to.

Gavroche is a child of the Paris streets.

He is 11 or 12 years old, and wears a man's trousers and a woman's shirt.

A kind woman gave these clothes to him.

He lives on the streets, knows everybody,goes everywhere, and enjoys life.

Well, why not? He knows no other life, only this one.

Marius loved walking through the streets and gardens of Paris, and he often walked in the Luxembourg Garden.

One day in the garden, he saw a man with a young girl.

The man was about 60, and the girl, Marius thought, was about 17.

He did not see her eyes, but he saw her golden-brown hair and her slow gentle smile.

He walked past them once and did not look back, but he came to the Luxembourg the next day, and the day after that.

And for the next five days, the man and the girl were always there.

He could not stop looking at the girl.

He wanted very much to see that smile, smile again.

On the seventh day, the girl turned her head and looked at Marius.

She looked into his eyes across the garden, and that look went like a bullet from a gun into Marius's heart.

There were no words, but at once Marius knew, and the girl knew this was love.

Life stopped for Marius then.

He spent hours in the Luxembourg.

And every time he saw her, the sun came out and all the birds in the garden began singing.

But the man began to look at Marius too, and his face was not friendly.

Marius was afraid and he went to Gavroche.

“Gavroche, please, you must help me.”

“Why? What's the matter? Monsieur Marius.”

“There's a girl, Gavroche. She walks in the Luxembourg every day. I want you to follow her home, and tell me the address.”

“Why don't you follow her? I am busy.” said Gavroche.

“I'm afraid to,” said Marius, “her father,grandfather, I don't know, is watching me. He doesn't like me.”

“Why is this important? Monsieur Marius.” Gavroche said.

“He had a big smile on his face. Because I'min love,” shouted Marius, “Please, Gavroche, do it.”

Gavroche ran away laughing.

Two days later, he came to Marius's rooms,Rue plume.

He said, “House at the end of the street,hard to find, you need to look for it.”

Spring came and Cosette began to go out into the garden at Rue Plume.

She was usually alone.

Her old servant Toussaint was always in the kitchen, and Father Jean Valjean was in his room reading.

Cosette was sad.

She remembered the young man in the Luxembourg Garden, but Father no longer wanted to go there.

But that evening, in the Rue Plume Garden something very wonderful happened.

She heard a voice, a man's voice.

She looked round and it was him.

“I'm so sorry,” he said, “please don't be afraid. I just wanted to… You remember the Luxembourg Garden? I saw you therefor the first time, I can't forget you day and night, I think about you. Please don't be afraid, you see, I love you. It just happened to me, I can't stop it. Don't be afraid, please.”

Cosette listened to this wonderful river of words and then held out her hand to him.

He took her hand, and she pulled it to her and put it against her heart.

“Then, you love me?”he said.

“Of course, you know that.”

A kiss, no words.

They did not need words.

Later words came, the story of his life, the story of her life, everything between lovers, everything is interesting.

When they were done with words,Cosette put her head on Marius's shoulder and asked, “what is your name?”

“My name is Marius, and yours?”

“Cosette.”

Every evening, they met secretly in the garden at Rue Plume.

A kiss, a gentle laugh, whispered words of love.

It was the spring and summer of their young lives.

But around them, outside their garden, there was change.

There were angry people, there were police and soldiers on the streets of Paris.

And one day, Jean Valjean said to Cosette, “My dearest child, we live in dangerous times. We must leave France and go to England.”

Cosette looked at him with frightened eyes.

“Must we go, father?” She said.

Valjean watched her face.

“We must,” he said, “Get ready to leave very soon.”

There was a change in Cosette.

Valjean remembered the young man in the Luxembourg Garden and he looked at Cosette's beautiful young face.

He was afraid, afraid of losing his dear daughter.

That evening in the Rue Plume Garden, there were many unhappy tears.

“But you must follow us to England,” cried Cosette.

“How can I do that?” cried Marius, “I have no money, no passport. Even England to me is like the moon.”

They held hands in the moonlight.

“Listen, I have an idea,” Marius said slowly,“Wait two days, perhaps.”

“Two days?” cried Cosette, “How can I live two days without you?”

第四章：马吕斯

九年过去了，冉阿让和珂赛特住在巴黎的普吕梅街，那是一栋带大花园的房子。
这是一条安静的街道，鲜有人至。
这让冉阿让感到安心，因为他依然对沙威警长心存畏惧。
如今的珂赛特已经长成了一个年轻女子。
她身材高挑，留着一头金棕色的头发。
她很美，但这世上美丽的容颜并不少见。
珂赛特脸上最动人的，是她的微笑——那是一种缓慢、温暖、轻柔的微笑，宛如雨后初晴的阳光。
现在，我们该认识一下马吕斯和他的年轻朋友加夫罗什了。
马吕斯是个学生，一个满脑子想法却身无分文的年轻人。
巴黎满大街都是这样的年轻人。
马吕斯有个祖父，他的父亲已经去世了。
但他和祖父互不说话，因为他们的政治理念截然不同。
十七岁那年，他带着30法郎、一块怀表和一小包衣服离家出走。
如今五年过去了，他和一群学生住在一起，他们整夜整夜地谈论书籍与思想、政治与政府、生与死。
所有的学生都是这样。
他们为理想而活，只在缺钱的时候才偶尔去打点零工。
加夫罗什是个在巴黎街头长大的野孩子。
他十一二岁，穿着一条男人的裤子和一件女人的衬衫。
这是一位好心的女士给他的衣服。
他风餐露宿，认识所有人，哪儿都敢去，而且非常享受这样的生活。
是啊，为什么不呢？除了这种生活，他什么也没经历过。
马吕斯喜欢漫步在巴黎的街道和花园里，他经常去卢森堡公园散步。
有一天在公园里，他看见一个男人带着一个小姑娘。
那个男人大概六十岁，马吕斯心想，那女孩大概十七岁。
他没看清她的眼睛，但他看到了她金棕色的头发和那缓慢轻柔的微笑。
他从他们身边走过，没有回头。但第二天、第三天，他又来到了卢森堡公园。
在接下来的五天里，那个男人和女孩总是出现在那里。
他无法控制自己的目光，总是忍不住看向那个女孩。
他多么渴望能再次看到那个微笑。
到了第七天，女孩转过头，看向了马吕斯。
她隔着花园望向他的眼睛，那目光就像子弹一样，直击马吕斯的心脏。
没有只言片语，但就在那一瞬间，马吕斯明白了，女孩也明白了——这就是爱情。
那一刻，马吕斯的世界仿佛静止了。
他在卢森堡公园里度过了好几个小时。
每一次看到她，他都觉得阳光洒满了大地，花园里的鸟儿都在为他歌唱。
但是，那个男人也开始注意到了马吕斯，而且眼神并不友善。
马吕斯害怕了，他去找加夫罗什。
“加夫罗什，求求你，你必须帮帮我。”
“怎么了？出什么事了，马吕斯先生？”
“有个女孩，加夫罗什。她每天都去卢森堡公园散步。我想让你跟着她回家，告诉我她的地址。”
“你自己怎么不跟着？我很忙的。”加夫罗什说。
“我不敢，”马吕斯说，“她父亲，或者祖父，我搞不清楚，一直在盯着我。他不喜欢我。”
“这有什么关系吗，马吕斯先生？”加夫罗什说。
“因为我恋爱了啊！”马吕斯大喊道，“求你了，加夫罗什，帮帮我吧。”
加夫罗什大笑着跑开了。
两天后，他来到了马吕斯在普吕梅街的住处。
他说：“街道尽头的那栋房子，很难找，你得仔细留意。”
春天来了，珂赛特开始走到普吕梅街的花园里。
她通常是一个人。
老女仆杜桑总在厨房里忙碌，而冉阿让父亲则在自己的房间里看书。
珂赛特感到有些忧伤。
她想念卢森堡公园里的那个年轻人，但父亲已经不想再去那里了。
然而，那天傍晚，在普吕梅街的花园里，一件奇妙的事情发生了。
她听到了一个声音，一个男人的声音。
她回过头，正是他。
“万分抱歉，”他说，“请别害怕。我只是想……你还记得卢森堡公园吗？我在那里第一次见到你，从此日夜都无法将你忘记，脑海里全是你。请别害怕，你看，我爱你。这感情就这样发生了，我无法阻挡。请别害怕。”
珂赛特听着这如河水般倾泻而出的动人话语，然后向他伸出了手。
他握住她的手，她却将他的手拉向自己，紧紧贴在自己的心口。
“那么，你爱我？”他问。
“当然，你是知道的。”
一个吻，无需言语。
他们不需要任何言语。
后来，他们终于开口了，讲述彼此的人生故事。恋人之间的一切，都是那么有趣。
当话语说尽，珂赛特把头靠在马吕斯的肩上，轻声问：“你叫什么名字？”
“我叫马吕斯。你呢？”
“珂赛特。”
从此，每天傍晚，他们都在普吕梅街的花园里秘密相会。
一个吻，一声轻柔的笑，几句耳鬓厮磨的情话。
这是他们青春岁月里的春天与盛夏。
但在他们周围，在花园之外，世界正在发生剧变。
人们群情激愤，巴黎的街道上到处是警察和士兵。
有一天，冉阿让对珂赛特说：“我最亲爱的孩子，我们正身处危险的时代。我们必须离开法国，去英国。”
珂赛特用惊恐的眼神看着他。
“我们必须走吗，父亲？”她说。
冉阿让注视着她。
“我们必须走，”他说，“准备一下，我们很快就要动身了。”
珂赛特变了。
冉阿让想起了卢森堡公园里的那个年轻人，他端详着珂赛特年轻美丽的脸庞。
他害怕了，他害怕失去自己心爱的女儿。
那天傍晚，在普吕梅街的花园里，充满了悲伤的泪水。
“但你必须跟着我们去英国啊！”珂赛特哭喊道。
“我怎么去得了？”马吕斯也哭喊道，“我没有钱，也没有护照。对我来说，去英国简直就像去月球一样遥远。”
他们在月光下紧紧牵着手。
“听着，我有个主意，”马吕斯缓缓地说，“等两天，也许只要两天。”
“两天？”珂赛特哭喊道，“没有你，我该怎么熬过这两天？”

W:Are you satisfied with the restaurant?

M:Well, I have to say it's not my thing. The food was fine, but the restaurant was too crowded and the waiters kept shouting all the time. I thought they should be working in a quieter and friendlier way.

M:Yes! Ah... that was a fun project.

W:Interesting.

M:Ooh, this is the microphone I recorded my first masterpiece with. A bit dusty.I wonder if it still works. Or maybe I should sell it. Who would buy it? 

W:Why don't you free cycle it?

M:Oh, that's a good idea. I can exchange a microphone for a bicycle, right?

W:No. You give it away. You give it to someone for free. It's another way of recycling. There are websites that help match you to people who want these things.

M:Free...recycle. Freecycle. Yes,I like the idea. But I would like a free bicycle even more.

W:So, Eric, how is life in Greenland these days?

M:Oh, you know. Winters are long. I live on the coast, though, so I get to seethe ocean every day. That's always nice.

W: I heard that winters in Greenland are somewhat shorter than they used to be ---global warming, I guess?

M:Yes, that's true. They're calling it "the greening of Greenland". 

W:The"greening"? What does that mean?

M:Well,the average temperature in Greenland is rising twice as fast as in other places. So now I have a few trees near my house. Trees didn't use to exist in Greenland, you know! Neither did vegetables. So it's amazing! Besides, farmers can grow more grass for their animals.

W:Hello, this is Tina. I haven't booked my flight to Washington DC yet, but I was wondering if you have any advice on how to best get to you from the airport?

M:Yes, well, if you're flying. Reagan National is the closest. You can take the underground right from there. Dulles is further away and a taxi is probably the easiest. And then Baltimore-Washington Airport connects to a train that you can take right into the main train station in town.

W:OK, cool,I think Reagan should be the best. And do you pretty centrally lie in Washington DC? Like, next to all the sights and everything? My friend asked me to stay in her house, but I don't think it would be very convenient.

M:Yep. Were in the Dupont Circle area, pretty central to Washington DC. You can walk down to the White House. The underground is right around the corner. 

W:Do you include breakfast?

M:Yes,madam,and we also offer dinner if you like.

W:OK.That sounds good. Thank you. I'm going to think about it and once I've got everything booked, I'll give you a call. 

M:OK.Have a good day.

I really enjoy going to the movies with my friends on most weekends. I usually check the movie listings in the newspaper or online to see what is playing. I also check the movie reviews because I don't want to see a bad movie. I like to arrive early at the movie theater so l don't have to stand in line too long to buy tickets. Sometimes, the movie we want to see is sold out, so we might buy a ticket for a later showing. At the theater, I sometimes buy popcorn and a drink. The prices are sometimes high, but I like chewing something during a movie. I usually like to sit in an aisle seat somewhere in the middle of the theater. I think you can see the movie better instead of straining your neck if you are unfortunate enough to sit in the front rows. One thing I don't like is when other people talk during the movie, put their feet up on the back of my seat, or bring crying babies to the theater. Everyone should be able to enjoy the movie.
