Sample Writing
The play The Million Pound Bank Note is based on a story by Mark Twain. In the play, an American young man by the name of Henry Adams comes to England by accident, penniless and friendless. By chance, he becomes a suitable subject of a bet by two wealthy and odd brothers. Their bet is on whether someone could live in London for thirty days with no money apart from a million-pound bank note, which he could not cash in a bank or spend.
With the bank note on him, Henry finds that people's attitudes towards him dramatically change, and everyone tries his or her best to please him. He moves into a nice hotel, he makes business deals, and he falls in love, but there are a few challenges along the way. For example, he loses the bank note.
I like the play because it is funny and has some exciting twists and turns. I recommend it to everyone.
Expanding Your World
(P90)
In today’s extensive reading material, we will come to a passage adapted from a novel with the name of “My Uncle Jules”, which was written by the famous French writer Maupassant.
MY UNCLE JULES (Adapted)我的叔叔于勒 (节选)
Henri Rene Albert Guy de Maupassant
When I was growing up in Havre, my family was very poor. My father worked long hours to support our family. We ate the same food every day, saved where we could, and tried our best to keep up appearances. Every Sunday, we would put on our best clothes and go for a walk by the sea. My parents would walk at the back with great dignity. My sisters, both of marriageable age, would stride ahead, hoping to attract the right people. On those days, when we saw the ships returning from distant countries, my father would remark: “What a surprise it would be if Jules were on that one! Eh ”
1. How was the writer’s family when he was young
Very poor.
2. What did the writer’s family do every Sunday
They would go for a walk by the sea.
3. What did the writer’s father expect when he saw the ships returning from distant countries
He expected to see his brother Jules --- the writer’s uncle.
My uncle Jules was the black sheep of the family. He had squandered both his inheritance and my father’s, before setting forth for America. There, he set up a business in New York and wrote to say that he would soon repay my father. The news caused a dramatic change. Once regarded as a hopeless case by all, Uncle Jules was now considered a good and honest man, like all the other Davranches. “When I am wealthy, I shall return to Havre,” he promised in another letter. “I hope it won’t be too long and that we shall all live happily together.”
That letter was pulled out and read at every opportunity. The more time passed, the more hopeful my family became. After all, our dreams were built on the wealth of Uncle Jules.
1. What was Jules like in his family before going to America
He was a black sheep of the family, and ran out of all his fortune and also his brother’s
2. What did Jules say in his letters from America
--He set up a business
--He would soon repay his brother
A few years later, one of my sisters got married to a clerk--a man whom I suspect to have seen the letter--and my family celebrated by going on a rare holiday together. On the ship bound for Jersey, we saw an old man shucking oysters for the passengers “That man looks extraordinarily like Jules,” my father muttered to my mother. Astonished, my mother went to take a closer look. She, too, turned pale as a sheet. My father then asked the captain for more information. The captain said, ‘He’s a tramp whom I met in America. He’s avoiding his family in Havre because he owes them money. I think his name is Jules-Jules Darmanche or Darvanche, or something like that.”
1. What did the writer’s family do to celebrate his sister’s marriage to a clerk
They went on a rare holiday together.
2. Was the old man really Jules From whom did they get the truth about the old man
--Yes
--From the captain.
“It’s he! What should we do ” moaned my father.
My mother, suddenly furious, exclaimed, “I knew that thief would remain useless! What else can we expect from a Davranche! ”
Only the three of us were in the know. Determined to keep it that way, my parents handed me five francs and asked me to pay for the oysters discreetly.
“How much do we owe you, monsieur [m sj ] ” I asked.
“Two francs fifty,” he replied.
1. How did the writer’s mother feel about Jules
Angry, disappointed, desperate
2. Did they confirm the identity to the old man And what did the writer’s parents ask him to do then
--No.
--they asked him to buy oysters from Jules.
I handed him the money and received change from his poor wrinkled hand. I looked at his old and unhappy face, and I, too, saw my uncle. Unable to help myself, I gave him back fifty centimes.
“Thank you so much, young sir!” he said gratefully, without recognizing me. “Are you insane ” my mother exclaimed when I returned with two francs. “Giving a tip to that man---”
My father pointed at his son-in-law. Everyone fell silent. As we drew closer to Jersey, I wanted desperately to see my Uncle Jules again and to console him with tender words, but he had long disappeared below the deck.
1. What did the writer do to Jules
He gave his uncle a tip --- fifty centimes.
2. How did their attitudes towards Jules change
--At first: disappointed
--When he was in NY: promising, hopeful
--On the ship: surprised, desperate
3. What relationship is talked about in the passage
--the relationship between money and family affection.
