【正文】 rew into forests, reptiles appeared for the first time. They produced young generally by laying eggs. After that, some huge animals, called dinosaurs, developed. They laid eggs too and existed on the earth for more than 140 million years. However, 65 million years ago the age of the dinosaurs ended. Why they suddenly disappeared still remains a mystery. This disappearance made possible thief rise of mammals on the earth. These animals were different from all life forms in the past, because they Gavin birth to young baby animals and prodeced milk to feed them. Finnally about million years ago some small celver animals, now with hands and feet, appeared and spread all over the earth. Thus they have, in their turn, bee the most important animals on the pla. But they no they looking after the earth very well. They are putting too much carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, which prevenrs heat from escaping from the earth into space. As a result of this, many scientists believe the earth may be too hot to live on. So whether life will continue on the earth for millions of years to e will depend on whether this problem can be solved. A visit to the moon Last month I was lucky engough to have年產(chǎn) 7 萬(wàn)噸無(wú)縫鋼管高新技術(shù)產(chǎn)品項(xiàng)目可行性研究報(bào)告申請(qǐng)單位：**鋼廠編制單位：**有限公司二 〇 〇 九 年 六 月( after sitting down and putting the letter on the table) I’d like some ham and eggs and a nice big steak. Make it extra thick. Waiter: Right, sir. I’m afraid it’ll cost a large amount of money. Henry: I understand. And I’ll have a large glass of beer. Waiter: OK. ( The waiter leaves and soon returns with all the food.) Hostess: My goodness! Why, look at him. He eats like a wolf. Owner: We’ll see if he’s celver as a wolf, eh? Henry: ( having just finished every bit of food ) Ah, waiter.( waiter returns) Same thing again, please. Oh, and another beer. Waiter: Again? Everything ? Henry: Yes, that39。 and then what’ll happen to us, with no way in the world to earn a living? ( At the brothers’ home, the servant lets them in. the two brothers are seated,waiting.) Henry: Good morning,gentlemen .( Rodrick seems very surprised to see Portia) Portia, these are the men who helped me. Portia: So vary nice to meet you, kind sirs. ( She gives Oliver a wink with one eye.) Roderick: Er…Portia, I … Oliver: We’re both glad to hear it, for now we can decide the bet which Roderick and I made. If you’ve won for me, you shall have any job as my gift. Have you got the million pound bank note? Henry: Here it is, sir. Oliver: I’ve won! Now what do you say, Roderick? Roderick: I say that I’ve lost twenty thousand pounds. I never would have believed it. Why, that is amazing, man! Henry: Come, let’s be going now, Portia. Oliver: But wait, wait! The job, you know. I must give you a job, as I promised. Henry: Well, thank you very much, but I really don’t want one now. Portia: Henry, I’m disappointed in you. You didn39。s very nice of you. Owner: Oh, it’s for US to thank you, sir and I do, sir, from the bottom of my heart. (the owner, hostess and waiter all bow as Henry leaves) Act Ⅱ, Scene 4 Narrator: at the end of the month, Henry was very rich and didn39。t matter at all. We’re so very glad that you even entered our little eating place. Indeed, sir, I hope you’ll e here whenever you like. Henry: Well, that39。s right. (sees the look on the waiter’s face) Anything wrong? Waiter: No, not at all. (to the owner) He’s asked for more of the same. Owner: It’s wellknown that americans like to eat a lot. Well, we’ll have to take a chance. Go ahead and let him have it. Waiter: (reading the bill after the meal) All right. That39。t thank the gentlemen properly. May I do it for you? Henry: Let me see you try. (Portia walks over to Roderick and gives him a hug. Then she sits in Oliver’s lap, puts her arms around his nevk and kisses him on the cheek. Oliver begins laughing.) Portia: Papa,he says he doesn39。t fear jail. Dressed in the finest clothes, he drove by the brothers’ house in Portland Place and, seeing they were back, went to get Portia at her friennd’s home. Henry: My dear, the way you look today, it would be a crime not to ask for a good salary for the job they’ll give to me. Portia: Oh, please remember that if we ask for too much we may get no salary at all。s very knd of you. Owner: Kind, sir? No, it’s kind of you. You must e whenever you want and have whatever you like. Just having you sit here is a great honour! As for the bill, sir, please fet it. Henry: Fet it? Well… thank you very much. That39。s two orders of ham and eggs, two extra thick steaks, two large galsses of beer, two cups of coffee and two desserts. Henry: (looking at the clock on the wall) Would you mind waiting just a few minutes? Waiter: (in a rude manner) What’ s there to wait for? Owner: All right, Horace. I’ll take care of this. Henry: (to owner) That was a wonderful meal. It’s amazing how much pleasure you get out of the simple thins in life, especially you can’t have them for a while. Owner: Yes, very interesing. Now perhaps, sir, if you pay you bill I can help the other customers. Henry: (looking at the clock on the wall again) Well, I see it’s two o’clock.( he opens the envelope and holds a million pound bank Norelco in his hands Henry is very surprised but the owner and waiter are shocked) I’m sorry. But…I…I don’t have anything smaller. Owner: (still shocked and nervous) Well…er…just on moment. Maggie, look! ( the hostess screams, the other customers look at her and she puts a hand to her mouth) Do you thin it’s genuine? Hostess: Oh, dear, I don’t know. I simply don’t know . Owner : Well, I did hear that the Bank of England had issued two notes in this amount… Anyway, I don’t think it can be a fake. People would pay too nuch attention to a bank note of this amount. No thief would want that to happen. Hostess: But he’s in rags! Owner: Perhaps he’s a very strange, rich man. ( as if he has discovered something for the first time) Why,yes! That must be it!
