Tired of sleeping on the floor, a young man in Teheran saved up for years to buy a real bed. 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. 參考譯文 德黑蘭的一個年輕人由於對睡地板感到厭倦，於是積蓄多年買了一張真正的床。他平生第一次自豪地擁有了一張既有彈簧又帶床墊的床。由於天氣很熱，他便把床搬到了他的屋頂上。頭兩天晚上，他睡得非常好。但第三天晚上起了風暴。一陣大風把床從屋頂上刮了下來，把它摔碎在下面的院子裡。那年輕人直到床撞到地上才醒了過來。儘管床摔成了碎片，但年輕人卻奇跡般地沒有受傷。他醒來時，仍然躺在床墊上。年輕人看了一眼周圍的碎木片和碎金屬片，傷心地撿起了床墊，把它拿進了屋。他把床墊往地板上一放，很快又睡著了。 New words and expressions 生詞和短語 tired adj.厭煩的, 累的 be tired of sth/doing sth對…厭煩 I’m tired of doing that thing. courtyard n.院子 real adj.真正的(不是假的) It is real ring.這是真的金戒指。ture adj.真誠, 真摰, 符合標準ture love；real man真的男性, ture man男人中的男人 (56-03)smash v.碰碎,摔碎(粉碎) mash捣碎 → smash硔碎, 摔碎 The man smashed a window and got into the room.那人打碎了一扇窗，然後進了房間。 A car smashed into the wall.一輛車撞到了墻上。owner n.主人 own擁有 + er = 所有者, 主人 He is now the proud owner of a new car.他現在很得意地擁有一輛新車。 Who owns this god? 這隻狗是誰的？miraculously adv.奇跡般地 miracle奇跡,奇事 + -ous形容詞後綴 = miraculous奇跡的, 不可思議的 miraculous與副詞後綴 –ly構成miraculously 奇跡般地, 不可思議地 a miraculous victory奇迹般的勝利 It was a terrible explosion but, miraculously, no one was killed. 那是一次可怕的爆炸，可是竟沒有一個人喪生，真是奇跡。 spring n.彈簧, 春天, 源泉【人工噴泉fountain】I go on holiday in (the) spr
