新概念英語第二冊(含lrc文本)Lesson 21 Mad or not?
- 聽力原文
- 參考譯文
Aeroplanes are slowly driving me mad. I live near an airport and passing planes can be heard night and day. The airport was built years ago, but for some reason it could not be used then. Last year, however, it came into use. Over a hundred people must have been driven away from their homes by the noise. I am one of the few people left. Sometimes I think this house will be knocked down by a passing plane. I have been offered a large sum of money to go away, but I am determined to stay here. Everybody says I must be mad and they are probably right.

飛機(jī)正在逐漸把我逼瘋。我住在一個機(jī)場附近，過往飛機(jī)日夜不絕于耳。機(jī)場是許多年前建的，但由于某種原因當(dāng)時未能啟用。然而去年機(jī)場開始使用了。有100多人肯定是被噪音逼得已經(jīng)棄家遠(yuǎn)去，我是少數(shù)留下來的人中的一個。有時我覺得這房子就要被一架飛過的飛機(jī)撞倒。他們曾向我提供一大筆錢讓我搬走，但我決定留在這兒。大家都說我肯定是瘋了，也許他們說的是對的。
