They are usually about two metres wide, or six chi in traditional Chinese units. Most of them are nothing special. But Liu Chi Xiang(Six-chi Lane) in Tongcheng, Anhui, is perhaps the most famous one. 14 2 Its story started back in the Qing Dynasty. Two local families, Zhangs and the Wus, argued over the dividing line between their houses. They couldn't reach agreement. The Zhang family was angry. Their relative, Zhang Ying, had a position high up in the government. They wrote him a letter, asking for advice. When his reply came, they opened it to find a poem inside. 15 A letter from far away just for a wall Is not right or good at all. Three chi to your neighbour as a gift Is nothing as time continues to drift. 16 3 After reading it, the Zhang family felt ashamed. They stepped back three chi for their neighbour. This act deeply moved the Wu family. In return, they decided to do the same thing. They gave up another three chi. And so came the six-chi-wide lane between the two houses. 17 4 Hundreds of years have passed since then, and the lane is still there. The people of Tongcheng still keep the poem in mind. Whenever they walk down the lane, they remember how kindness encourages more kindness. 18 Answer the questions about the story. Introduction 1. Where is Liu Chi Xiang in the story? 2.

They wrote him a letter, asking for advice. 他们给他写了一封信，征求他的意见。 ask for advice意为“征求意见”。 asking for advice是一种非谓语结构，逻辑主语为“they”，与动词之间是主动关系，所以用的是“ing”形式。如为动宾关系，则用“done”过去分词形式来表示。 34 Asking for advice from experts, they made a better plan. 向专家征求意见后，他们制定了一个更完善的计划。 （逻辑主语“they”与“asking for advice”是主动关系，用现在分词形式） Asked for help by the old man, they stopped to give a hand. 被老人求助后，他们停下来伸出了援手。 （逻辑主语“they”与“asked for help”是动宾关系，用过去分词形式） 35 5.

Three chi to your neighbour as a gift Is nothing as time continues to drift. 一纸书来只为墙，让他三尺又何妨。 长城万里今犹在，不见当年秦始皇。 这首诗的韵脚是AABB。第一行末尾wall与第二行末尾all押韵，第三行末尾gift和第四行末尾drift押韵。 这样的结构能够增强诗歌的节奏、音乐性和美感。这首诗体现了中华民族宽以待人，谦逊礼让的优良传统。 36 6.

And so came the six-chi-wide lane between the two houses. 于是，两家之间便形成了一条六尺宽的小巷。 这句话主语比较长，为防止句子头重脚轻，谓语came提到了主语the six-chi-wide lane between the two houses前面。英文中有些句子没有宾语，且主语较长，可以把状语提前，而把主语放到谓语后面。 40 On the table stood two glasses and an empty bottle. 桌上有两个玻璃杯和一个空瓶子。 After the party came a fireworks display in the garden. 聚会后花园里放起了烟花。 41 10.

The people of Tongcheng still keep the poem in mind. 桐城人民的心中仍牢记着这首诗。 keep... in mind意为“把······放在心里，把······记在心上”。 Keep in mind to lock the door when you leave. 离开时记得锁门。 He always keeps her advice in mind. 他总是牢记她的忠告。 44 12. Whenever they walk down the lane, they remember how kindness encourages more kindness. 每当他们走在小巷里，他们都会想起善良是如何鼓励更多的善良的。 “whenever”引导的是时间状语从句，表示“当……时候”。此句中“how kindness encourages more kindness”，用在“they remember”之后，做“remember”这个词的宾语，并且是由“how”引导的句子，所以是宾语从句。宾语从句用陈述语序。 45 Write a short story about understanding between people.
