When he returns home at night, he always finds that someone has parked a car outside his gate. Because of this, he has not been able to get his own car into his garage even once. Jasper has put up 'No Parking' signs outside his gate, but these have not had any effect. Now he has put an ugly stone head over the gate. It is one of the ugliest faces I have ever seen.

29 Taxi!出租汽車

Captain Ben Fawcett has bought an unusual taxi and has begun a new service. The 'taxi' is a small Swiss aeroplane called a 'Pilatus Porter'. This wonderful plane can carry seven passengers. The most surprising thing about it, however, is that it can land anywhere: on snow, water, or even on a ploughed field. Captain Fawcett's first passenger was a doctor who flew from Birmingham to a lonely village in the Welsh mountains. Since then, Captain Fawcett has flown passengers to many unusual places. Once he landed on the roof of a block of flats and on another occasion, he landed in a deserted car park. Captain Fawcett has just refused a strange request from a businessman. The man wanted to fly to Rockall, a lonely island in the Atlantic Ocean, but Captain Fawcett did not take him because the trip was too dangerous.

機長福塞特買了一個不尋常的出租汽車，開始了一個新的服務。這輛出租汽車是一架小型瑞士飛機，叫“皮勒特斯·波特”。這架奇妙的飛機能載七名乘客。最令人驚奇的是，然而，是它能夠在任何地方降落：雪，水，甚至剛耕過的田裏。福塞特船長的第一名乘客是位醫生，他從伯明翰飛往一個偏僻的村莊在山。此後，福塞特上尉空運乘客到過許多不尋常的地方。他把飛機降落在了一棟公寓樓的屋頂，在另一個場合，他降落在一個廢棄的停車場。機長福塞特剛剛拒絕了一位商人的奇怪要求。這個人想要飛往羅卡爾島，大西洋中的一個小島，但福塞特機長沒有帶他因爲這段旅程太危險了。

30 Football or polo?足球還是水球?

The Wayle is a small river that cuts across the park near my home. I like sitting by the Wayle on fine afternoons. It was warm last Sunday, so I went and sat on the river bank as usual. Some children were playing games on the bank and there were some people rowing on the river. Suddenly, one of the children kicked a ball very hard and it went towards a passing boat. Some people on the bank called out to the man in the boat, but he did not hear them. The ball struck him so hard that he nearly fell into the water. I turned to look at the children, but there weren't any in sight: they had all run away! The man laughed when he realized what had happened. He called out to the children and threw the ball back to the bank.

wayle是一條小河橫穿我家附近公園。我喜歡在晴朗的下午坐在河邊。上週日是溫暖的，所以我去河邊坐着像往常一樣。一些孩子在河岸上玩遊戲，一些人在河上划船。突然，一個孩子狠狠地踢了一腳球，球便向着一個路過的船。岸上的一些人叫了船上的人，但他沒有聽見。球重重地打在他身上，他差點掉進水裏。我轉過頭去看那些孩子，但也不見了，他們都跑了!這個人意識到發生了什麼事時，他笑了。他大聲叫那孩子把球還給銀行。

31 Success story成功者的故事

Yesterday afternoon Frank Hawkins was telling me about his experiences as a young man. Before he retired, Frank was the head of a very large business company, but as a boy he used to work in a small shop. It was his job to repair bicycles and at that time he used to work fourteen hours a day. He saved money for years and in 1958 he bought a small workshop of his own. In his twenties Frank used to make spare parts for aeroplanes. At that time he had two helpers. In a few years the small workshop had become a large factory which employed seven hundred and twenty-eight people. Frank smiled when he remembered his hard early years and the long road to success. He was still smiling when the door opened and his wife came in. She wanted him to repair their grandson's bicycle!

32 Shopping made easy購物變得很方便

People are not so honest as they once were. The temptation to steal is greater than ever before -- especially in large shops. A detective recently watched a well-dressed woman who always went into a large store on Monday mornings. One Monday, there were fewer people in the shop than usual when the woman came in, so it was easier for the detective to watch her. The woman first bought a few small articles. After a little time, she chose one of the most expensive dresses in the shop and handed it to an assistant who wrapped it up for her as quickly as possible. Then the woman simply took the parcel and walked out of the shop without paying. When she was arrested, the detective found out that the shop assistant was her daughter. The girl 'gave' her mother a free dress once a week!

人們不再像以前那麼誠實了。偷竊的誘惑力比以往任何時候——尤其是在大的商店。偵探最近注意上了一位穿着體面的女人總是在星期一上午進入一家大商場。一個星期一，有商店裏的人比往常少時，女人走了進來，所以偵探比較容易監視她。這位婦女先是買了幾樣小物品。過了一會兒，她選擇了一個商店裏最昂貴的衣服，把它遞給了售貨員包裹它爲她儘快。婦人只是包裹，走出了商店沒有支付。她被逮捕後，偵探發現原來那售貨員是她的女兒。這個女孩給她母親每星期一次免費的衣服!

33 Out of the darkness 衝出黑暗

Nearly a week passed before the girl was able to explain what had happened to her. One afternoon she set out from the coast in a small boat and was caught in a storm. Towards evening, the boat struck a rock and the girl jumped into the sea. Then she swam to the shore after spending the whole night in the water. During that time she covered a distance of eight miles. Early next morning, she saw a light ahead. She knew she was near the shore because the light was high up on the cliffs. On arriving at the shore, the girl struggled up the cliff towards the light she had seen. That was all she remembered. When she woke up a day later, she found herself in hospital.

幾乎過了一個星期，那姑娘才能講述自己的遭遇。一天下午，她乘小船從海岸出發，在一隻小船，遇上了風暴。傍晚，船觸礁了，姑娘跳進了海里。然後她遊在水裏度過了一整夜之後。在此期間，她遊了八英里。第二天清晨，她看見前方有燈光。她知道自己已經接近岸邊了因爲那燈光是在高高的懸崖上。到達岸邊後，姑娘掙扎着往峭壁上爬去朝着她看到的燈光。她所記得的就是這些。過了一天她醒來時，她發現自己住院。
