外星人长什么样？(读故事学英文)(图文版)试读：
写在前面
少儿英语学习阶段的水平和能力如何提高？单纯靠学校的课本远远满足不了少儿英语学习者的需求。从国外引进的英语学习图书语言表达虽然地道，但对国内的小学习者来说，总有水土不服之感。一是文化背景相隔悬殊，易产生理解障碍；二是认知水平与语言难度不一致，对国内的孩子来说，内容易、语言难，不能完全匹配他们的英语学习需求。
有鉴于此，外语教学与研究出版社特别策划了这套专门针对国内小读者的系列听读故事英语学习书—“读故事，学英文”，先期推出四册。书中英语故事的撰写和背景知识、语法要点的设置，均由美籍少儿英语教育专家完成。每册30篇故事，由专家原创或根据经典童话、寓言改写而成，注重对国内小读者的认知能力和语言水平的同步培养。在培养语言技能的同时，兼顾不同文化背景的介绍，同时特别注意贴近小读者自身的生活体验。内容取材丰富多样，以故事为主，涵盖书信、日记、诗歌等体裁。在叙述方面也精心安排，囊括了第一、第二、第三人称的不同叙述角度，从多个侧面培养小读者的语感，以期真正提高英语技能。
每册书均配有音频光盘，录制了书中的全部文字内容，既包括英文，也包括中文，让本书既可读、又可听，同步提高读者的各项英语技能。除随书音频光盘外，本系列还另配有点读笔，随点随听。
祝国内的小读者们在英语学习的道路上取得真正的进步！
外语教学与研究出版社Passage 1Deli Sandwich熟食店的三明治
At lunchtime every day, I go to the deli to buy a sandwich. I usually get a ham and cheese sandwich, but sometimes I get a tuna sandwich. No matter what sandwich I eat, I like to get different kinds of potato chips every day. Today I am going to get BBQ flavored chips.
My favorite deli is only five minutes from my house. It's an Italian deli, so they sell lots of Italian foods. My mom comes here to buy spaghetti. The workers are so nice! They always give me a free pickle with my sandwich.
"Hi, Matt!" I say to the man behind the counter.
"Hey, Dave! Do you want a ham and cheese sandwich today?" He asks me.
"No, not today. I think I am going to try something different. Can you make me a turkey sandwich?"
"Of course! I can make anything you want!" Dave says with a smile. "We have a delicious potato salad today, too. Would you like to try some?"
"I would love to try some!" I say to him.
"Thanks, Matt!" I say as he gives me my food. "See you tomorrow!"
"See you tomorrow!"
每天的午餐时间，我都会去熟食店买一个三明治。通常，我会买火腿奶酪三明治，但是有的时候，我也会买金枪鱼三明治。不论我吃哪种三明治，我都喜欢每天买不同种类的薯片。今天，我要买烧烤口味的薯片。
我最喜欢的熟食店距离我家只有五分钟的路程。那是一家意大利熟食店，所以他们出售许多意大利食物。我妈妈会来这儿买意大利面。这儿的工作人员特别好！他们总是会送给我一份免费的泡菜来配我的三明治。“嗨，马特！”我对柜台后面的人说。“嘿，戴夫！你今天想要火腿奶酪三明治吗？”他问我。“不了，今天不。我想尝试一下不同的口味。你能给我做一个火鸡三明治吗？”“当然了！你想要什么我都能做！”戴夫微笑着说。“今天我们还有非常好吃的土豆沙拉，你要不要尝一尝？”“我想尝尝！”我对他说。“谢谢你，马特！”马特将食物递给我时，我对他说。“明天见！”“明天见！”Key Words一定要记住的词汇！Game: Matching the pictures小游戏：连线搭配

Last night, when we were sleeping, our boat landed on a beautiful island. We don't know where we are now, but we know that we are in the Pacific Ocean. We got lost two days ago, and just landed on this beautiful island. Our food is running out, so we need to go out to explore the island. It looks very big and there are many colorful birds. Jon says that he wants to build a little house, so he is going to look for some trees and big leaves. Lisa thinks that she can catch some fish, so she is going down to the ocean. Maggie is going to look for fruit and I am going to find some fresh water.
"Dave!" yells Jon. "Come here! You have to see this!" I run to him as fast as I can and he says, "Look up." When I look up, I see that he is pointing to some coconuts at the top of a tree. "It's a coconut tree!" I exclaim. "Now we can drink fresh coconut milk! But, who is going to climb the tree?" I ask.
昨天夜里，我们正睡觉时，我们的小船停靠在了一个美丽的岛屿旁。我们不知道自己现在在哪里，但是我们知道是在太平洋上。我们两天前迷路了，刚刚在这个美丽的岛屿靠岸。我们的食物快要吃光了，所以得去探索一下这座岛。这座岛看起来很大，有许多五颜六色的鸟儿。乔恩说他想建一座小屋，所以他要去找一些树木和大树叶。莉萨觉得她能抓鱼，所以向海边走去。玛吉想去找些水果，而我则想去找些淡水。“戴夫！”乔恩大声喊道，“快过来！你看看这个！”
我以最快的速度朝他跑去。他说：“看上面！”我抬起头来，看见他正指着一棵树顶上的几个椰子。“这是棵椰子树！”我惊叫道。“现在我们有新鲜的椰汁喝了！不过，谁来爬树呢？”我问道。Key Words一定要记住的词汇！Game: Find the words小游戏：在字母框中圈出下列各词Grammar: as...as someone can/could语法小知识：as...as someone can/could

This place is really amazing. After we drank some coconut milk, we continued to explore the island, and we found some very interesting things. I went to look for fresh water. I walked into the island and heard the sound of running water. I continued to push myself through the trees and leaves and I discovered that this island has a small mountain in the center. The running water that I heard was the sound of a waterfall! It is amazing!And the water is fresh!
I ran out of the jungle and found the other three. I was running so fast and was so excited that I almost couldn't talk. "Guys! Guys! Guess what I found!" I said to them. "What? What did you find?" they all asked. "Did you find water?" "Yes, but I found more than water. I found a huge waterfall!"
"Really? That's amazing! I found some fresh bananas and Lisa caught four fish, too," Maggie said to me. "Let's go to the waterfall, cook the fish, eat the bananas, drink the coconut milk, and go for a swim." "That's a great idea!" we all agreed.
这个地方真是太神奇了！我们喝了椰汁之后，继续探索这座岛，发现了一些非常有意思的东西。我去寻找淡水，朝岛屿深处走去，听见了流水的声音。我继续艰难地穿过树枝树叶，发现岛中央有一座小山。我听见的流水声居然是一个瀑布的声音！这太神奇了！而且这水是淡水！
我跑出丛林，找到了其他三个人。我跑得太快了，心情太激动了，几乎都说不出话来。“各位！各位！猜猜我找到什么了！”我对他们说。“什么？你找到什么了？”他们异口同声地问道。“你是找到水了吗？”“是的，不过不只是水，我找到了一个大瀑布！”“真的？太棒了！我找到了一些新鲜香蕉，莉萨还抓了四条鱼。”玛吉对我说。我们去瀑布吧，烤鱼，吃香蕉，喝椰汁，再游个泳，怎么样？”“真是个好主意！”我们一致赞同。Key Words一定要记住的词汇！Message in a Bottle知识补给站：瓶中信
When people get lost on the ocean and land on an island, they usually want other people to come and find them. One thing they do is to spell the letters "SOS" really big on the beach. If a plane fl ies over the island, the pilot might see the letters and send a boat to help the people. The people on the island might also write a letter, put it in a bottle and then put the bottle in the ocean. If someone finds the bottle, they can read the message and fi nd a way to help.
当人们在海上失去了方向，在某个岛上岸的时候，他们通常都希望别人来找到他们。他们会在海滩上拼写出非常大的字母"SOS"，如果有飞机在那座岛屿上空飞过，飞行员或许能看见那几个字母，然后派船营救他们。岛上的人也有可能会写一封信，放进一个瓶子里，然后将瓶子投入海中。如果有人发现了那个瓶子，他们便可以读到瓶子中的信息，从而想办法帮忙。Grammar: almost+verb语法小知识：almost+动词

We are really enjoying life on the island. We have a lot of food and fresh water, and the place is beautiful! Because the weather is so good, we sleep outside on the beach. Everything is perfect. Dave is cooking some fish for dinner and I am making cups from pieces of bamboo. We use big leaves as plates and eat with our fingers. The girls go to get some fresh fruit and water. The fish smells really good!Dave really knows how to cook fish!
When the girls return, the fish is ready to eat. We sit down to eat and the wind suddenly begins to blow very strong. The air quickly becomes chilly and we can feel drops of rain begin to fall. The weather is always so good. We never build a good house to sleep in. When the rain comes, we have nowhere to go.
We get really wet and feel very hungry. We know what we have to do when the rain stops-build a house!
我们非常享受岛上的生活。我们有许多食物和淡水，周围的风景也很漂亮！因为天气很好，我们便睡在外面的海滩上。一切都完美无缺。戴夫在烤晚餐吃的鱼，我则在用竹子做杯子。我们用大片树叶当盘子，用手指抓着吃饭。女孩们出去找新鲜的水果和淡水了。鱼闻起来香极了！戴夫做鱼真是很在行！
女孩们回来时，鱼已经做好了。我们坐下来准备吃饭。突然，刮起了大风。空气突然变得冷起来，我们能感觉到开始掉雨点了。之前天气一直都很好，所以我们没有搭建可以睡觉的像样的屋子。等下起雨来，我们根本无处可躲。
我们被淋成了落汤鸡，感到饥肠辘辘。我们知道雨停后我们必须要做什么——搭建一座屋子！Key Words一定要记住的词汇！

This island is big. It is really, really big. We still haven't seen the other side of it! We have been here for many weeks. We have built good houses and have lots of food and water. Now we should really go explore the whole island.
"Let's walk through the jungle to the waterfall and then walk to the other side of the mountain," suggested Maggie. We all agreed that it was a good idea and walked into the island. We had never walked to the other side of the mountain before, so we were all very surprised to find another waterfall! But there were more surprises... Dave found some old mango peels on the ground and we all wondered where they came from. Where did the mangoes come from and what ate them?We had not seen any monkeys or other animals on the island before. We decided that we should continue to explore, so we could discover the answerto this mystery. We walked for about forty minutes and then Lisa stopped suddenly and told us to be quiet. When we stopped walking, we could hear noises that sounded like voices. We pushed through the jungle, to the voices, and discovered a small village! We're not alone!
这座岛屿很大，真的很大，我们到现在还没有见过岛的另一边！我们已经来这儿好几个星期了，搭建了结实的屋子，还找到了许多食物和水。现在我们真应该好好地探索一下整个岛屿。“咱们穿过丛林，到瀑布那儿，然后再走到山的另一边去吧。”玛吉提议说。我们都认为这是个好主意，于是就朝岛屿里面走去。我们之前从来没有去过山的另一边，所以当发现了另外一个瀑布时，大家都很惊讶。然而更多让人惊讶的事还在后面……戴夫发现地上有一些陈旧的芒果皮，我们都想知道它们是从哪儿来的。那些芒果是哪儿来的呢？又是什么吃了那些芒果呢？之前我们可从来没有在这座岛上看见猴子或者其他动物呀！于是我们决定继续探索，找到这个谜题的答案。我们走了大约四十分钟，莉萨突然停下了脚步，让我们都别出声。停下之后，我们听见有类似人说话的声音。我们穿过丛林，朝有声音的方向走去，结果发现了一个小村庄！原来岛上还有其他人！Key Words一定要记住的词汇！Grammar: Past Simple and Present Perfect语法小知识：一般过去时与现在完成时

Yesterday we discovered we are not alone on the island. We found a small village on the other side of the mountain. There are eight people living there, but I think only one of them can speak English. "One day," they said, "we were taking a sailing trip and got lost. We were lost for two days and then we discovered this island."
Unbelievable! The same thing happened to us! They came from Argentina originally, so they speak Spanish. Luckily, Lisa studied Spanish for six years and lived in Mexico for one year with her family. She learned that the villagers have lived on the island for about one year. Their houses are much better than ours and their village is also much bigger. They discovered some different things here. The fruit is different. On our side, we only have bananas and coconuts, but they have mangoes and some red berries too. We were so happy to find other people living on the island! We quickly walked back to our village to get some fish, bananas and coconuts. Then, we walked back to their village and cooked a big dinner with them. We have neighbors!
昨天，我们发现岛上除了我们还有其他人。我们在山的另一边找到了一个要比我们的好多了，而且他们的村庄也大得多。他们在这儿发现了一些不小村庄。村子里住着八个人，不过我想只有一个人会说英语。“一天，”他们说，我们在航行时迷路了。两天后我们发现了这座岛。”
真是令人难以置信！和我们的遭遇一样！他们起初是从阿根廷过来的，所以说西班牙语。幸运的是，莉萨学过六年的西班牙语，还和她的家人在墨西哥住了一年。她了解到那些村民已经在岛上居住了大约一年的时间。他们的房屋要比我们的好多了。而且他们的村庄也大得多。他们在这儿发现了一些不同的东西，这儿的水果也不同。我们那边只有香蕉和椰子，而他们却有芒果，还有一些红色的浆果。发现岛上还有其他人，我们感到特别高兴！我们赶回自己的村庄，取了一些鱼、香蕉和椰子，又返回他们的村庄，和他们一起做了一顿大餐。我们有邻居了！Key Words一定要记住的词汇！Grammar: What happened?语法小知识：发生什么了？
