背诵指导：Lesson 31 A lovable eccentric 可爱的怪人
　　

　　True eccentrics never deliberately set out to draw attention to themselves. They disregard social conventions without being conscious that they are doing anything extraordinary. This invariably wins them the love and respect of others, for they add color to the dull routine of everyday life.

　　Up to the time of his death, Richard Colson was one of the most notable figures in our town. He was a shrewd and wealthy businessman, but most people in the town hardly knew anything about this side of his life. He was known to us all as Dickie and his eccentricity had become legendary long before he died.
　　

　　译文：

　　真正古怪的人从不有意引人注意。他们不顾社会习俗，意识不到自己所作所为有什么特殊之处。他们总能赢得别人的喜爱与尊敬，因为他们给平淡单一的日常生活增添了色彩。

　　理查德.科尔森生前是我们镇上最有名望的人之一。他是个精明能干、有钱的商人，但镇上大部分人对他生活中的这一个方面几乎一无所知。大家都管他叫迪基。早在他去世前很久，他的古怪行为就成了传奇故事了。　　
　　

　　背诵小贴士：本文也讲述了一个人的性格，在背诵这篇文章中我们着重领会作者描述人们性格的词汇表达和段落结构。
　　

黄金宝典词汇：

1.Invariably常常地在英文写作中我们常常会用到often 如果想你的文章提高一个档次，那么我们今后可以用这个invariably来代替often.

2. Up to the time of his death他生前，这个表达方式直接拿来就可以用在我们的四六级写作中，相比我们常用的before he died 会高级很多，关键是一个是7个词组成而另一个是3个词组成，如果参加对字数要求严格的雅思考试的话，我想大家一定会选前者。
