新概念英语2 Lesson 6 精讲笔记
I have just moved to a house in Bridge Street. Yesterday a beggar knocked at my door. He asked me for a meal and a glass of beer. In return for this, the beggar stood on his head and sang songs. I gave him a meal. He ate the food and drank the beer. Then he put a piece of cheese in his pocket and went away. Later a neighbour told me about him. Everybody knows him. His name is Percy Buttons. He calls at every house in the street once a month and always asks for a meal and a glass of beer.
参考译文：
我刚刚搬进了大桥街的一所房子。 昨天一个乞丐来敲我的门, 问我要一顿饭和一杯啤酒。作为回报, 那乞丐头顶地倒立起来, 嘴里还唱着歌. 我给了他一顿饭。他把食物吃完, 又喝了酒。然后把一块乳酪装进衣袋里走了。后来, 一位邻居告诉了我他的情况. 大家都认识他, 他叫珀西.巴顿斯。他每月对这条街上的每户人家光顾一次, 总是请求给他一顿饭和一杯啤酒。
