  高中二年级英语必修三课文the million pound bank note原文

  Narrator:it is the summer of 1903.two old and wealthy brothers,Roderick and Oliver,have made a bet.Oliver believes that with a million pound bank note a man could survive a month in London.his brother Roderick doubts it.At this moment, they see a penniless young man wandering on the pavement outside their house.it is Henry Adams,an American businessman,who is lost in London and does not know what he should do.
 
  Roderick :young man,would you step inside a moment,please?
 
  Henry :  who?Me,sir?
 
  Roderick : yes,you.
 
  Oliver:   through the front door on your left.
 
  Henry:   (a servant opens the door)thanks.
 
  Servant:  good morning.sir.would you please come in? Permit me to lead the way, sir.
 
  Oliver:   (henry enters)thank you,james. That will be all.
 
  Roderick: how do you do,Mr...er...?
 
  Henry:   Adams, Henry Adams.
 
  Oliver:   come and sit down,Mr Adams.
 
  Henry:   thank you.
 
  Roderick :you are an American?
 
  Henry:  That’s right,from San Francisco.
 
  Roderick :how well do you know London?
 
  Henry:   not at all.it’s my first trip here.
 
  Roderick :I wonder,Mr Adams,if you ‘d mind us asking you a few questions.
 
  Henry:   not at all.go right ahead.
 
  Roderick :May we ask what you’re doing in this city and what your plans are?
 
  Henry:  well,I can’t say that I have any plans.I’m hoping to find work.As a matter of fact,I              landed in Britain by accident.
 
  Oliver:  How is that possible?
 
  Henry:  well, you see, back home I had my own boat.About a month ago,I was sailing out of the          bay...(his eyes stare at what is left of the brothers’ dinner on the table)
 
  Oliver:  well,go on.
 
  Henry:  Oh, yes. Well, towards nightfall I found myself carried out to sea by a strong wind. It
 
  was all my fault I didn’t know whether I could survive until morning. The next morning
 
  I’d just about given myself up for lost when I was spotted by a ship.
 
  Oliver:  And it was the ship that brought you to England.
 
  Henry:  yes, the fact is that I earned my passage by working as an unpaid hand, which accounts          for my appearance.I went to the American embassy to seek help, but...( the brothers
 
  smile at each other.)
 
  Roderick :well, you mustn’t worry about that. It’s an advantage.
 
  Henry:   I’m afraid I don’t follow you, sir.
 
  Roderick :Tell us, Mr Adams, what sort of work did you do in America?
 
  Henry:   I worked for a mining company.Could you offer me some kind of work here?
 
  Roderick : Patience, Mr Adams. If you don’t mind, may I ask you how much money you have?
 
  Henry:   Well, to be honest, I have none.
 
  Oliver:   (happily)What luck! Brother,what luck!(clap his hands together)
 
  Henry:   Well, it may seem lucky to you but not to me! On the contrary, in fact. If this is your
 
  idea of some kind of joke, I don’t think it’s very funny.(Henry stands up to leave)Now
 
  if you’ll excuse me, I think I’ll be on my way.
 
  Roderick : please don’t go,Mr Adams.You mustn’t think we don’t care about you.Oliver, give him          the letter .
 
  Oliver:   yes,the letter.9gets it from a desk and gives it to Henry like a gift) The letter.
 
  Henry:   (taking it carefully)For me?
 
  Roderick : For you. (Henry starts to open it.)Oh,no,you mustn’t open it. Not yet. You can’t open it          until two o’clock.
 
  Henry:   Oh,this is silly.
 
  Roderick : not silly.there’s money in it.(calls to the servant)James?
 
  Henry:   Oh,no.I don’t want your charity. I just want an honest job.
 
  Roderick : We know you are hard-working.That’s why we’ve given you the letter. James,show Mr          Adams out.
 
  Oliver:   Good luck,Mr Adams.
 
  Henry:   Well,why don’t you explain what is all about?
 
  Roderick : You’ll soon know.(looks at the clock)In exactly an hour and a half.
 
  Servant :  This way,sir.
 
  Roderick : Mr Adams, not until 2o’clock.Promise?
 
  Henry:   Promise.Goodbye.
