Lesson 1 A private conversation Last week I went to the theatre. I had a very good seat. The play was very interesting. I did not enjoy it. A young man and a young woman were sitting behind me. They were talking loudly. I got very angry. I could not hear the actors. I turned round. I looked at the man and the woman angrily. They did not pay any attention. In the end, I could not bear it. I turned round again. ‘I can't hear a word!’ I said angrily. ‘It's none of your business, ’ the young man said rudely. ‘This is a private conversation!’ Notes on the text 课文注释 1 go to the theatre，去看戏。 2 got angry，生气。 3 turn round，转身，也可用 turn around。 4 pay attention，注意。 5 I could not bear it．我无法忍受。 其中的 it 是指上文中的那对男女大声说话又不理会作者的愤怒目光。 6 none of your business，不关你的事。 Lesson 2 Breakfast or lunch? 早餐还是午餐？ It was Sunday.

It's one o'clock!’ Notes on the text 课文注释 1 on Sundays，指每个星期日。星期几的前面用介词 on。 2 What a day！多么糟糕的天气！这是一个省略的感叹句。完整的句子应该是What a day it is！英语中的感叹句常用what 开头，后面紧跟一个名词或名词性短语(包括连系动词)，然后是主语和谓语，句尾用感叹号。 3 I'm coming to see you．在这句话中现在...
