For the first time in his life, he became the proud owner of a bed which had springs and a mattress. Because the weather was very hot, he carried the bed on to the roof of his house. He slept very well for the first two nights, but on the third night, a storm blew up. A gust of wind swept the bed off the roof and sent it crashing into the courtyard below. The young man did not wake up until the bed had struck the ground. Although the bed was smashed to pieces, the man was miraculously unhurt. When he woke up, he was still on the mattress. Glancing at the bits of wood and metal that lay around him, the man sadly picked up the mattress and carried it into his house. After he had put it on the floor, he promptly went to sleep again. 新概念英语讲义体系新概念英语第2 册 . 第 49 讲 . 学生版Page 2 of 14save up 存钱He is saving up for a trip.他正为旅行存钱。3. real adj. 真正的What was the real reason for your absence? 你缺席的真正原因是什么？The TV play was based on real life. 那出电视剧是根据现实生活写成的。4. owner n. 主人I am the owner of this house.
