Lesson 71  The ticket machine

Narrator: Sandy and Sue are at a railway-station.
They want to their tickets from a ticket machine.
Sandy: What must we do, Sue?
Sue: We must put two coins in the slot.
Sandy: I'm that I've got some small change.
Sandy: What must we do now?
Sue: Now we must press this button.
Look: it says, PRESS.
Sandy: I've pressed it,
but nothing's happening.
I'm sure that the machine's empty.
(Sandy bangs the machine.)
Porter: You mustn't bang that machine.
I'm sure that it's empty.
Sue: No, it isn't.
Look! It's giving us lots of tickets!

Lesson 73  Guess What!

Sue: Look, Sandy!
Mum's looking out of the kitchen window.
She's crying.
Sandy: Poor mum!
What's the matter with her, Sue?
Sue: I'll go in and ask her, Sandy.
You wait here.
Sandy: Did you ask her, Sue?
Sue: Yes, I did. Guess what she says!
Sandy: She says she cut her finger.
Sue: No! You are wrong.
Sandy: She says she feels sad.
Sue: No! You are wrong.
Sandy: Oh, I give up.
What does she say, then?
Sue: She says she's peeling onions!

Lesson 75  Television Day: Don’ complain about arithmetic!
TV Commentary:
I'm sure some of you like arithmetic very much. Perhaps it's your favourite subject. But I'm certain some of you don't like it at all. Perhaps you do sums because you have to do them! Can you add DCCLXVII and CCLVI? A Roman child couldn't do this sum. He had to use a counting-board. But it is a simple sum really.
Here it is in Roman numbers:
DCCLXVII
+ CC LVI
                ——————
Answer:            MXX III
And here it is in Arabic numbers:
767
+256
————
Answer:              1023
Easy, isn't it? Who says arithmetic is difficult? We don't have to use Roman numbers and we must thank the Arabs for this. They gave the world simple numbers. So don't complain about arithmetic!

Lesson 77  No litter!
Narrator: Sandy and Sue are at the zoo.
They are with their parents.
They have just had a picnic lunch.
Sandy: I do not want to finish this sandwich.
I am full.
(He throws the sandwich away.)
Mother: You mustn’t throw it there, Sandy!
Sue: You are not allowed to throw litter on the grass.
Look at that sign.
It says, NO LITTER! PLEASE BE TIDY!
Mother: Put it in that litter-basket.
Sandy: It is too far away, mum.
Mother: Lazybones!
Sue: It is all right ,Sandy.
You do not have to walk to the litter-basket.
It isn’t necessary.
Sue: You needn’t throw the sandwich away.
Give it to Jumbo, the elephant.
He loves sandwiches!

Lesson 79  Mrs Dumpling’s on a diet!

Narrator: Mrs Dumpling is Mrs Blake’s friend.
She’s having tea with the Blakes.
Mrs Dumpling’s on a diet, but she’s very fat.
Mrs Blake: Have another sandwich, Mrs Dumpling.
Mrs Dumpling: Well, I shouldn’t really.
I’m on a diet, you know. Oh, all right, then.
Mrs Blake: Have another biscuit, Mrs Dumpling.
Mrs Dumpling: Well, I oughtn’t to,
but I’ll just have a little one.
Mrs Blake: Have another slice of cake.
Mrs Dumpling: No, thank you. I shouldn’t.
Mrs Blake: Are you sure?
Mrs Dumpling: Well, I’ll just have a small slice.
I oughtn’t to, really.
I’ve already had two slices.
Timmy: No, you haven’t. You’ve already had five.
I’ve counted them.
Mrs Blake: Timmy!

Where's my new blue shirt?
Mother: I haven't ironed it yet.
Father: Betty! Something's burning!
Can you smell it?

but I forgot.
I'll turn it off now.

There's a big hole in it!
Mother: I'm sorry, Jim.
Father: Never mind, dear.

Lesson 85  Television Day: The Lascaux Cave
TV Commentary:
Have you heard of the Lascaux Cave and the famous pictures there? In 1941, a French schoolboy, Marcel Ravidat, and three of his friends explored a hill near the village of Montignac. Suddenly, Marcel's dog disappeared down a hole in the rocks. The hole was dark. Perhaps it was dangerous down there.
Marcel shouldn't have gone into it alone, but he did. He rescued the dog. Marcel and his friends decided to go down the hole together the next day. The boys returned the next morning with ropes and candles. They climbed into the hole and came to a big cave. They accidentally made a great discovery. They found pictures of animals on the walls. Prehistoric men painted these pictures more than 20,000 years ago. The Lascaux Gave has been famous ever since——just because of four boys and a dog!

Sue: Yes, dad.
Sue: I should turn it off, but I often forget.
Shall I turn it off now, dad?
Father: No, I'm going to have a shave.
Sandy: Have you finished, dad?
I want to have a wash.
Father: Yes, come in, Sandy.
Sandy: Who left the tap on?
Father: Er...I did, Sandy.
Sandy: You mustn't waste water, dad.
You must always turn the tap off.

Lesson 89  A very kind waiter

Narrator: Last week, father took the family to a restaurant as a special treat
Father: May we see the menu please?
Waiter: Of course, sir.
Father: Would you all like to begin with soup?
All: Yes, please.
Father: Four soups please.
Waiter: Very good, sir.
Mother: Sandy! What are you doing?
Sandy: I'm putting some salt in my soup.
Sandy: Ugh! It tastes salty!
Mother: You shouldn't have put any salt in it.
You should have tasted it first.
Waiter: Never mind.
I'll bring another plate of soup.
Father: That's very kind of you.

Sue: Let's go in and ask.
Mother: How much is that handbag?
Assistant: Which one?
Mother: The one in the window.
Assistant (holding bag): 50 pence! It can't be!
It's made of leather, not plastic.
This must be a mistake.
I'll ask the manager.
Assistant: How much is this handbag?
Manager: It's￡5, not 50 pence.
This is a mistake.
Assistant: I'm sorry, madam.
Mother: I knew it!

They were holding bags full of money.
The bank manager was running after them.
A policeman was standing among the crowd,
but he didn't do anything!
“Quick!” Sandy shouted to the policeman.
“Can't you see those thieves?”
The policeman smiled.
He pointed at a big camera.
“We're making a film,” he said.
“Those men aren't real thieves.
They're actors.
And I'm not a real policeman, either.
I'm an actor, too!”

Lesson 99  Sandy reads a joke

“I'll read it to you.”

They were dying of thirst.
Sandy: Suddenly, one of them looked up and said,
“Look! Did you see that? It was an oasis!”

It must have been a mirage.”
Sandy: The explorers crawled towards the “oasis”.
Sandy: Suddenly they banged their heads into something.
It wasn't an oasis, and it wasn't a mirage.
It was an oil-pipe!

It must have cost more then that.!”

Lesson 115  Television Day: Captain Cook

TV Commentary:
The great explorer, Captain Cook, set out from England in 1768 in his ship, Endeavour. He wanted to explore the South Pacific. After he had sailed round the two islands of New Zealand, he travelled up the east coast of Australia. The Dutch explorer, Tasman, had discovered the west coast of Australia in the 17th century. He had also been to New Zealand, but he hadn’t brought back much information. Tasman didn’t discover that New Zealand was really two islands. He didn’t know that Australia was an enormous continent. Captain Cook made maps of the coast-line of new Zealand and Australia. His great journey took nearly three years. The Endeavour returned to England on July 13th, 1771. Ninety-three men had sailed with Captain Cook and thirty-eight of them had died on the journey.

Lesson 117  Father used to be a Boy Scout

Narrator: The Clarks went camping last week-end.
They put up their tent in a field.
Father: If you collect some sticks, children,
I shall light a fire.
Sandy: Here you are, dad.
Sue: We’ve brought lots of dry sticks.
Mother: Here’s a box of matches, Jim.
Father: I don’t want any matches!
I used to be a Boy Scout.
If I rub these two sticks together,
I can light a fire.
Sue: What’s the matter, dad?
Father: I’ve been rubbing these two sticks together for a long time but nothing’s happened yet!
Mother: I'll light it, Jim.
It’s easy to light a fire with two sticks——
if one of the sticks is a match!

Lesson 119  Who’s silly? Boys or girls?
Narrator: It’s the end of term.
Sandy and Sue are going to a school party.
Sandy says he’s ready, but Sue isn’t ready yet.
Sandy: Hurry up, Sue!
Aren’t you ready yet?
Sue: No, I’ve got to put on my party dress.
And I’ve got to comb my hair.
Sandy: Come on, Sue! Hurry up!
Sue: Be quiet, Sandy!
When I’m ready, I’ll tell you.
Sue: Which dress shall I wear, mum?
The red one, or the blue one?
Mother: The red one, Sue.
Father: What’s the matter, Sandy?
Sandy: I’m waiting for Sue.
I’ve been waiting for hours!
Aren’t girls silly?
Sue: I’m ready now.
Sandy: At last!
Mother: Sandy! You haven’t put your shoes on yet.
Sue: Aren’t boys silly!

叮叮妈，上次谈到声律启蒙的拼音版本，本来打算拍照下来传给你，今天在论坛上发现了一个拼音软件KTESTPINYIN（前两个字母大写，后面小写），只有1433KB，而且不用安装不占内存的，很好使用，我用声律启蒙的一东试了一下，全部正确，结果还可导出到WORD里，推荐给你使用。结果导出摘录如下（贴出来有点走样了，原格式是上拼音下汉字，与书本一样的）：
一(yī) 东(dōnɡ)
　　云(yún) 对(duì) 雨(yǔ) ，雪(xuě) 对(duì) 风(fēnɡ) ，晚(wǎn) 照(zhào) 对(duì) 晴(qínɡ) 空(kōnɡ) 。来(lái) 鸿(hónɡ) 对(duì) 去(qù) 燕(yàn) ，宿(sù) 鸟(niǎo) 对(duì) 鸣(mínɡ) 虫(chónɡ) 。三(sān) 尺(chǐ) 剑(jiàn) ，六(liù) 钧(jūn) 弓(ɡōnɡ) ，岭(lǐnɡ) 北(běi) 对(duì) 江(jiānɡ) 东(dōnɡ) 。人(rén) 间(jiān) 清(qīnɡ) 暑(shǔ) 殿(diàn) ，天(tiān) 上(shànɡ) 广(ɡuǎnɡ) 寒(hán) 宫(ɡōnɡ) 。

大事不好，虽然经过校对，我上传的文本还是有错误。

中文学习

学习【中华字经】第三册第十一课《疾病》，这是第三册的最后一课了。学完后要进行一、二、三册的全面复习，不再接着学第四册了。虽然叮叮还想读第四册，但实在是没有必要了。

第十一课：疾病

龋牙皱肤　肪膘冗绽　憨傻痴呆　聋哑瘫痪
疙瘩痘疹　脓疮秃癣　癞疥搔痒　疤痕愈痊
帧频催聩　瘴疟殖阉　瘁痈痔痢　瘪痹瘸疝
胁肋疼痛　筋肌痉挛　胃胰溃疡　膀胱菌沾
艾兹侵略　瘟疫扩散　肿瘤癌症　劳惫疲倦
警惕疾病　诊恙预患

读完三册不知道叮叮有没有长进，因为只要他读，混个眼熟，不要他真正认识。
但我倒是纠正了自己不少错误的发音。
那么我的错误发音是如何形成的：
1.从父母不标准的普通话那里。
2.有的字不认识，又懒得查字典，所以就根据半边字随口读一个。

现在教叮叮，不希望他再犯以上两点错误了！！！

唐诗朗读这两天暂时告一段落。开始复习《三字经》，可《三字经》读得很不好，很难相信这是以前滚瓜烂熟的，看来小孩子一定要复习、再复习啊。因为以前能背出来，所以好多生僻字都顺着过去了。现在让他读，这些字都不认识，看来等他全部读完一遍后，还要我再带着他读。
