many horses.He tied up his two mules behind some high rocks.Then he climbed into a tall tree to hide.From up high in the tree,Ali Baba saw forty men on forty horses.Each man wore a saber and a dagger in his belt.They looked very fierce.Ali Baba could see at once that they were thieves.The forty thieves dismounted in front of a huge rock,and one,who seemed to be captain,said,“Open,Sesame!”And a door flew open in the rock.Then they all went inside and the door closed behind them.focus1starter 上海交通大上海交通大学学出版社出版社 1.StarterBackNextTo be continued10focus1starter 上海交通大上海交通大学学出版社出版社 1.Starter Ali

said,“Open,Sesame!”The door at once opened,and Ali Baba stepped inside.He found himself in a large cave,lighted from a hole in the top,and full of all kinds of treasurerich silks and carpets,gold and silver ware,and great bags of gold.He loaded his two mules with as many of the bags of gold as they could carry,and,after closing the door by saying,“Shut,Sesame!”made his way

城里正在巡展古埃及文物，许多有趣的手工艺品让公众大饱眼福。尤其是其中一份古埃及文献，被认为揭示了获取财富的神秘方法。4 4 在当地的早报上读到这则新闻之后，约翰霍利戴便从邻居家借来了相机，以便拍下这份文献，供日后研究。focus1text3 An Egyptian archeological exhibit was touring through town with many interesting artifacts for the public to see.One in particular,was an ancient document believed to uncover a mysterious formula for acquiring wealth.4 Having read about this ancient document in the

eight orifices and that the seeker of wealth must place precious gems in each of the holes in the statue.The gems had to be cut in a special way and inserted in a specific manner.Translation

他花了几小时就弄清楚了这种语言代码，并开始解读这份古文献。这份文献说，埃及中部有一座上千年的雕像，藏在距一座大金字塔几英里的洞穴中，还说这座雕像身上有8个小孔，寻宝者必须把珍贵宝石放进每个小孔中，这些宝石还必须按照特别的方式切割，然后以特定的方式嵌入。19focus1text 3.How did John labor over the ancient document?He went to the

meaning was unclear why this was to be done,but John just wanted to become wealthy,so he didnt care.After extensive research,John determined it would cost approximately 1.2 million dollars to acquire

文献没说为什么要这样做，但是约翰一心想发财，并不在意。经过广泛的研究，约翰计算出买这些宝石加上去埃及的路费大约要花费120万美元。为此，他花了五年时间，努力工作，并开办了一家公司，终于赚足了这么一大笔钱。23focus1text9 Once he had the funds,he purchased the gems and a ticket to the ancient city of Asyut.Once there,he spent months locating the pyramid and the cave that the Egyptian document had alluded to.Once in the cave,it only took a few minutes to locate the statue that the ancient manuscript had described.Translation9 9 一有了这笔钱，约翰立刻购买了宝石和去埃及古城艾斯尤特的票。到了那里，他花了好几个月才找到那份古埃及手写本中暗示的金字塔和山洞。进入山洞后，他只用几分钟便找到了那座古代手写本里描绘的雕像。上海交通大上海交通大学学出版社出版社 BackNextallude:vi.间接提到，暗指，影射allude常用于allude

statue.Right before his eyes,the eight gems turned to stone,filling the holes,leaving no trace where the holes used to be.11 With great disbelief,he stared at his investment of valuable gems,now turned to stones,and wondered what it all meant.Just then,at the foot of the statue,he noticed an inscription,which he could now decipher,which read,“Any fool can create wealth,but only the wise know what to do with it.”Translation 10 10 他迫不及待地把这些宝石塞进雕像的每个孔中。但是，就在他眼皮底下，八颗宝石变成了石头，填满了原来的小孔，小孔在一瞬间消失，一丝痕迹都没留下。11 11 约翰眼睁睁地看着自己投资买来的宝石变成了石头，他难以置信，百思不得其解。就在这时，他注意到了雕像底座的一行铭文他现在能读懂了，上面写着：愚者亦能创造财富，但唯智者知晓用财之道。上海交通大上海交通大学学出版社出版社 BackNextwaste no time(in)doing sth:不失时机地做谋事,赶紧做谋事e.g.Obama will waste no
