The long wait just about killed me. At last, that heavy sun began to go down, my tired eyes following it all the w ay down. And then I waited and waited some more. At last, there they were, coming back. Their heads hung down. There they wer e, coming down the hill, returning like a badly defeated army. The world had not ended...no heaven opened up. They were back on earth, where they had no thing - no homes, no farms, no food, no money. Worst of all, their hope was gone; their religion was gone. The women cried, the men looled pale and sick ly. The children were hungry and tearful. But what was this? Grandfather smiled as he shouted. "Here come the Jewwls." Mister Jewwl spoke to grandfather. "Sir, I ask you to forgive me. Of course, you were right. If God had wanted the world to end, why would he tell me, of all people. You understood this a nd tried to save me. And you did save me. For up there on top of the hill I discovered that God had not left me. It was I who had left God. I was had le st God. I was full of pride. I was sure that I could understand him. We shou ld be punished for leaving God." Grandfather took Mister Jewel's hand and asked him to come home with us. But he said no. "I am taking my family to California. Other Believers are comin g with us. There we will start a new life and never leave God." We could do nothing to stop them and we knew that their going away was a ter rible loss. I never saw Jed again. For me, the world had really ended. (The End) 【英文教室】 见面说什么? 和人见面首先必须先打招呼,用什么样的话开始呢?各国文化的不同造成了打招呼 的话也不同。在国外,埃及人见面就说:你是怎么出汗的?海地人却在问:你是怎么站 的?对于这些问候对我们中国人可能会感到十分奇怪。同样在中国,我们见面问:“你 吃饭了吗?”,“你到哪儿去?”,“你来干什么?”,都是再平常不过的话。而对于 英语国家的人来说他们也会觉得很奇怪,甚至不了解中国文化的英美人会因你的问话产 生不满,因为连英国孩子都会认为这样的问题是瞎管别人的私事,我吃不吃饭,我来干 什么,有必要告诉你吗?所以我们必须学会native speakers见面时是怎样打招呼的。 他们见面时最常用的话是: Hi!喂! Hello!喂! How are you ?你好。 How are you doing ? 最近怎么样? 初次见面可以说: Glad to meet you here. 很高兴见到你。 我们常常会听到对方说How do you do? 这时唯一正确的反应也是How do you do? 不要以为对方要问你什么,其实这只是一个问句式的问候语。如果你告诉对方哪儿 痛哪儿不舒服就错了,我们不少人喜欢说 I'm fine, thank you.这是不符合习惯的。另 外提一句,我们初次见面分手时喜欢说 Good-bye.你如果仔细注意的话,会发现Native speakers说Nice meeting you 或Nice to have met you. 在学校和公司早晨见面大家打招呼时说: Good Morning! 早晨好! Morning ! 早晨好! 如果你们以前曾经见过面,再次相见可以说: Good to see you again. 很高兴再次见到你。 跟老朋友好久不见了,在路上偶遇可以说: What a surprise! 真巧! Small world, isn't it? 世界真小,是吧。 Anything new? 有什么新消息? 过了一段时间见面,可以说: How are you doing? 最近怎么样? How is everything ? 一切还好吧? What is going on? 最近怎么样? What's up? 有什么新消息吗? What's new? 有什么新消息吗? Fine , thank you. 很好,谢谢。 Pretty good. 非常好。 Very well. 非常好。 Not bad. 不错。 Quite well. 非常好。 Same as ever. 一如既往。 So-so. 一般。 在美国Long time no see.也是很流行的,据说这是中国留学生带到美国去的China -English, 不过现在老美也这么说。 如果你见到一个非常面熟的人又不敢确认那就不妨 这样来说: Aren't you Peter Green? 你是彼得·格林先生吧? Excuse me, haven't we met somewhere before? 对不起,我们在哪儿见过面吗? 伦敦曾有雾都的称号,听起来浪漫,实则是工业革命的后遗症,有雾的天气给人们 的生活带来不便,所以天气很使人们烦恼,这也就养成了英国人以天气扯开话题的习惯 ,在中国人看来以这样的话题开头显得没话找话说,但和英美人聊天时以这样的话开头 却是万无一失的。 Cold weather , isn't it? 天气很冷,是吧? Good weather , isn't it? 天气不错,是吧? Nice day , isn't it? 好天气,是吧? 【站点动态】 本站独家推出“俚语大全”! 如果你认为自己的英文说得还不错的话,等真正到了国外,你就会发现,老外说的 话怎么和您说的不太一样呢?有时根本就听不懂!原来,老外在日常生活中很少会用到 文绉绉的书面语,而是夹杂了大量的俚语(Slang), 虽然比较粗俗,受过良好教育的人士 甚至不屑一顾,但的确是实实在在存在的。因此,学点儿俚语俗语还是有必要的。 为了方便广大网友,本站特意收集了很多这方面的资料,现独家推出“俚语大全” ! # 分为“美国校园俚语手册”,“澳大利亚俚语俗语大全”,“英国俚语俗语大全 ”和“新西兰俚语俗语大全”四个部分。资料丰富,应有尽有,是名副其实的大 # 解释详尽,通俗易懂,均附例句 # 全部按照26个字母的顺序来编排,检索十分方便 # 可打包下载,永久私藏 # 特别奉送97,98年两年的“美国校园俚语TOP20”排行榜 哇噻,真是酷毙了!要学俚语俗语,唯有“网络英语”的“俚语大全”! 【编辑信箱】 enjoyenglish@21cn.com?subject=mailbox ### 我是订阅贵站英语的一位读者。 我能否提个建设:就是在每篇文章后所解释的新词汇时,可否注上其音标。 因为在看的过程中,对于陌生的单词我们不但要其理解意义;而且还要学会能正确发音 。 谢谢!

Especially, I liked the column of Classic Songs in EE Vol1.1~1.5; I was very glad to find the words of several of my favorite songs in this column, such as My heart will go on, Do Re Mi, and Casablanca , etc. Unfortunately, from the Vol10, this column was canceled. For me, I like to listen English songs, but I can't always understand the meaning of words. I really want to learn to sing the song, but without words, I have to give up. Mr. bob, I do think the column of Classic Song is a good column, could you introduce some Classic English songs' words at EE?
