㈧ 總結百萬英鎊故事英語作文
My Impressions after Reading」 The Million Pound Note」
This time I want to talk about a very famous short story written by Mark Twain---------「The Million Pound Note」. Referring to Mark Twain, you must feel familiar, because we must have read his works before. I still remember the article 「 The Bite Events on the Train」 in our textbook when I』m in the middle school. What touched me most at that time were his ironic words. Yes, he is a great humorist, novelist, writer and orator in America in nineteenth century. During his 40 years』 writing career, he created dozens of short or long stories, among which 「The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn」 is of the most popularity, which was praised by Hemingway as 「the first real American literature」. But today I am introcing his another work------ The Million Pound Note.
This story tells about a poor but honest American Adam Henry. When he was wandering in the street of London, he was given by two billionaires a letter, in which he surprisedly found a £1,000,000 pound bank-note. Later he got to know that the two billionaires who were brothers had made a bet about the results after he got a one million-pound note at once. One of them thought the note wound count for nothing to the poor man because he could not prove that the money was his own while the other considered just as the opposite.

羅德里克:小夥子 你能進來一下嗎? 亨利:誰?我嗎.,先生?
羅德克里:是的,就是你。 奧利弗:從你的左邊的前門進來。
亨利:(一個僕人打開門)謝謝。
僕人:早上好,先生。請進?請允許我來帶路吧。
奧利弗:(亨利進來了)謝謝你,詹姆斯。這沒你什麼事了。
羅德克里:你好,先生……呃……?
亨利:亞當斯,亨利。亞當斯
羅德里克:過來坐下,亞當斯先生。……
亨利:謝謝
羅德里克:你是美國人?
亨利:對,我來自舊金山。
羅德里克:你對倫敦了解的多嗎?
亨利:一點也不了解,我是第一次來這。
羅德里克:亞當斯先生,不知你是否介意我們問你一些問題?
亨利:別客氣,請問吧。
羅德里克:我們想問你在英國干什麼,你有什麼計劃嗎?
亨利:哦,我不能說我有什麼計劃,我只希望能找份工作。實際上,我是偶然來到英國的。
奧利弗:這怎麼可能呢?
亨利:哦,你知道,我在家裡有一條自己的船。大概一個月前,我正准備駛出海灣……
奧利弗:哦,接著說。
亨利:好的,夜幕降至,我發現颳起了強烈的風,這都是我的錯。第二天早上,我還是迷失了方向,幸好有艘船發現了我。
奧利弗:那麼就是那艘船帶你來到英格蘭了。
亨利:是的,事實上他們讓我在船上幫工才免了我的船費,這就是我為什麼會衣冠不整的原因了。我去美國大使館求助,但是……
羅德里克:哦,你不必擔心了,這也是你的優勢。
亨利:先生,我不是很贊同你的觀點。
羅德里克:亞當斯先生,對我們說說你在美國從事的工作。

羅德里克: 別著急,亞當斯先生,如果你不介意,我想知道你還有多少錢?
亨利:說老實話,我沒錢。 奧利弗:這太幸運了!這太幸運了!
亨利:這也許對你們來說很幸運,但是對我來說一點也不好。如果這一切不過是你們開的玩笑,我並不覺得很有趣。如果你們不介意的話我先走了。
