2014101018第九单元Translation of Text A二十年后1正在巡逻的警察精神抖擞的沿着大街走着。

他这样引人注目并不奇怪，并不是为了招摇，因为此时大街上根本没有什么观众。

时间还不到晚上十点钟，但夹带着雨意的冷风几乎清空了整个街道。

2警察边走边检查门是否关好了，他十分灵巧的不停转动着警棍，眼光还不时头像平静的街道，他那魁梧的身材，配上卓越不凡的气势，就是一副治安维持者的形象。

那个地区的人晚上休息的很早。

你偶尔还能看到一家雪茄店或是昼夜营业的饭店还在亮着灯，但是觉得大多数的店铺都已经关门了。

3在一个街区的半路上，警察忽然放慢了脚步。

在一家已经关门的五金店的门廊里，一个男子倚在那里，嘴里叼着一只未点燃的雪茄。

当警察朝他走去时，男人赶忙毫不犹豫的说。

4“没事的，长官。

”他坦然的说。

“我只是在等一个朋友，这是二十年前就定好的约会，听起来有点荒唐。

是吧？哦，如果你想弄明白事情的真相，我就说个你听。

大约二十年前，在这家五金商店说在的位置曾经是一家餐馆——“大乔”布雷迪餐馆。

”5“那家餐馆五年前还在，”警察说道，“后来就被拆除了。

”6门廊里的人划着火柴，点着了烟。

火光映出了一张苍白的，方正下巴的脸，一双尖锐的眼睛，右边眉毛附近还有一道泛白的疤痕。

他的领带夹上镶着一颗大钻石，镶的十分奇怪。

7“二十年前的这个晚上，”男子说，“我和吉米-威尔斯在大乔布雷迪餐馆共进晚餐，他是我最好的朋友，也是世界上最好的人。

我和他一起在纽约长大，亲如手足。

当年，我18岁，吉米20岁。

第二天早晨，我就要动身去西部赚钱去了。

吉米是无论如何也不会离开纽约的，他认为这是世界上最好的地方。

那天晚上我们定好，就在20年后的同一天，同一时间，我们都要在这里碰面，不管我们的情况如何，也不管我们相隔多远。

我们觉得不管怎么样，20年后的我们命运也应该有一个好结果了，该发财的也已经发财了。

8“挺起来有点意思，”警察说道。

“尽管在我看来，你们俩见面的时间间隔长了点，自从你离开后，你和你的朋友还有联系吗？”9“哦，有的，有一段时间我们相互通信。

⾼中英语_AfterTwentyYears教学设计学情分析教材分析课后反思After twenty years---O. HenryPart One(1)The policeman made his rounds up the avenue(沿着⼤街巡视) in an impressive way. His impressiveness was habitual and not for show, for there were few people around. The time was barely 10 o'clock at night, but strong wind with a taste of rain in it had driven most people indoors.(2)The policeman tested doors as he went to make sure they were locked. He turned now and then to cast(投；投射) his watchful eyes down the broad street. The officer, with his large form and confident walk, made a fine picture of a guardian(守护者) of the peace.(3)His assigned area was one where most shops closed early at night. Now and then, a person might see the lights of a liquor store or an all-night small restaurant, but the majority of the doors belonged to business owners who had already gone home several hours ago.(4)When about midway of a certain block the policeman suddenly slowed his walk. In the doorway of a darkened hardware store a man leaned, with an unlighted cigar in his mouth. As the policeman walked up to him the man spoke up quickly.Part Two(5)"It's all right, officer," he said, reassuringly(使⼈放⼼地). "I'm just waiting for a friend. It's an appointment made twenty years ago. Sounds a little funny to you, doesn't it? Well, I'll explain if you'd like to make certain everything is all right. About that long ago there used to be a restaurant where this store stands--'Big Joe' Brady's restaurant."(6)"Until five years ago," said the policeman. "It was torn down then."(7)The man in the doorway struck a match and lit his cigar. The light showed a pale, square-jawed(⽅下巴的) face with keen eyes, and a little white scar near his right eyebrow. He had a diamond(钻⽯) pin(别针) in his scarf, oddly(古怪地) set. (8)"Twenty years ago tonight," said the man, "I ate here at 'Big Joe' Brady's with Jimmy Wells, my best friend, and the most loyal guy in the world. He and I were raised here in New York, just like two brothers, together. I was eighteen and Jimmy was twenty. The next morning I was to start for the West to make my fortune. You couldn't have dragged Jimmy out of New York; he thought it was the only place on earth. Well, we agreed that night that we would meet here again exactly twenty years from that date and time, no matter what our conditions might be or from what distance we might haveto come. We figured that in twenty years each of us ought to have our destiny(命运) worked out and our fortunes made, whatever they were going to be."(9)"It sounds pretty interesting," said the policeman. "Rather a long time between meets, though, it seems to me. Haven't you heard from your friend since you left?"(10)"Well, yes, for a time we wrote to each other," said the other. "But after a year or two we lost track of each other. You see, the West is a pretty big place, and I kept moving around pretty frequently. But I know Jimmy will meet me here if he's alive, for he always was the truest and most loyal friend in the world. He'll never forget. I came a thousand miles to stand in this door tonight, and it's worth it if my old partner turns up."(11)The waiting man pulled out a handsome watch, the lids(盖⼦) of it set with small diamonds.(16)"Good-night, sir," said the policeman, passing on along the street, trying doors as he went.Part Three(17)There was now a fine, cold drizzle falling(冰冷的⽑⽑⾬), and the wind became stronger and stronger. The few foot passengers in the street hurried silently along with coat collars turned high and pocketed hands. And in the door of the hardware store the man whohad come a thousand miles to fill an appointment, uncertain almost to absurdity(荒谬), with the friend of his youth, smoked his cigar and waited.(18)About twenty minutes he waited, and then a tall man in a long overcoat, with collar(⾐领) turned up to his ears, hurried across from the opposite side of the street. He went directly to the waiting man.(19)"Is that you, Bob?" he asked, doubtfully.(20)"Is that you, Jimmy Wells?" cried the man in the door.(21)"Bless my heart!" exclaimed the new arrival, grasping both the other's hands with his own. "It's Bob, sure as fate(命运). I was certain I'd find you here if you were still in existence. Well, well, well! --twenty years is a long time. The old gone, Bob; I wish it had lasted, so we could have had another dinner there. How has the West treated you, old man?"(22)"It has given me everything I asked it for. You've changed lots, Jimmy. I never thought you were so tall by two or three inches."(23)"Oh, I grew a bit after I was twenty."(24)"Doing well in New York, Jimmy?"(25)"Moderately(适度地). I have a position in one of the city departments. Come on, Bob; we'll go around to a place I know of, and have a good long talk about old times."(26)The two men started up the street, arm in arm. The man from the West, his egotism(⾃负) enlarged by success, was beginning to outline the history of his career. The other, submerged in his overcoat, listened with interest.(27)At the corner stood a drug store, brilliant with electric lights. When they came into this glare each of them turned to gaze upon the other's face at the same time.(28)The man from the West stopped suddenly and released his arm.(29)"You're not Jimmy Wells," he said in a sharp voice. "Twenty years is a long time, but not long enough to change a man's nose from a Roman(鹰钩⿐) to a pug(狮⼦⿐)."Accumulation of useful expressions(语⾔积累):I Learning Aims1.To help the students appreciate the novel from the four aspects: setting; characters; plot; theme.2.To let the students guess the ending of the story reasonably.3.To arouse the students’ interest in reading novels in English.II Learning activitiesBefore reading: When we read a novel, we should pay attention to the four aspects:________,_________.__________,__________.While readingPart one(1-4)Task1: What is the setting of the story?(When; where; how about the weather)______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________ Task 2: The policeman made a fine picture of a guardian(守护者) of the peace.
