Unit 5-1 THE MILLION POUND BANK NOTE
ACT 2, SCENE 1
Narrator: Henry is walking along the street holding the bank note in his hand. His coat is worn in several places. He sees a sign for a tailor's shop.
Henry:(entering the shop I'd like to have a suit coat.
1st Clerk: (in a rude manner) See him there.(pointing to another clerk)
2nd Clerk: Ready-made suits? Downstairs.
Henry:(after going down some stairs) Can you show me a suit, please?
3rd Clerk: Yes, I can, sir. This way, please. Ah, here we are, the very thing you need.
1st Clerk: (pulling the 3rd clerk aside and whispering) Mr Reid says you'd better serve him quick and get him out quick!
3rd Clerk: I know what I'm doing. I've got eyes,haven't I?
Henry:It's a little too bright, isn't it?
3rd Clerk: (looking at him with a frown) It's all we have in your size.
Henry:Well, I suppose it ought to do for now. I'll take it.
3rd Clerk: Good. Shall I put it in a box?
Henry: No. I'll wear it. Oh, I'd rather not pay you now. I'd like to pay in a month. You see, I don't have any small change.
3rd Clerk: (trying not to show he's angry) I suppose a gentleman like you only carries very large bills.
Henry:Now, you shouldn't judge people by their clothes. I just don't want to cause you trouble with a large note.
3rd Clerk: It's no trouble at all.
Henry:In that case, there's no problem. (He gives the clerk the bank note. The clerk drops Henry's coat. Then he folds the bill and slowly unfolds it again, as if looking at something he can't believe is there.)
Owner:Well, what seems to be the trouble?
Henry:I'm just waiting for my change.
Owner:Give him his change, Todd. Get going ... (after getting the bank note from Todd Would it... could it be the one I saw in the papers last week? I remember thinking that never would I hold such a note as this ... (to Henry) Oh, take off this coat, sir. (to Todd) Go get the others, Todd! (to Henry again) Allow me, sir! This way, sir.
(in another part of the shop, where there is a wide range of options for Henry to choose from)
Henry:This is nice, but I really don't need it.
Owner:Never mind. (with a broad smile) Oh, it's perfect! It was made for some king but he'll just have to wait. You'll need many suits for many occasions. Yes, indeed you will.
Henry:Wait a minute. I only came here to get a suit coat to wear today. I dare not buy all these things. You would have to wait a long time to get paid.
Owner:A long time, sir? Why, you don't have to worry about that!
3rd Clerk: Yes, we can wait forever!
Henry:Well, all right. I'll take the suit coat for now and get the others later.
Owner:Fine, fine. Your address, sir?
Henry:I don't have one. Er... I'm moving.
Owner:Of course you are! That's very normal! A busy man, I'm sure.

四、书面表达参考范文
Attitude Changes Towards Henry Adams in the Tailor's Shop
In the tailor's shop, people's attitude towards Henry Adams changes greatly, which shows a realistic social phenomenon.
At first, because Henry wears a worn coat and looks poor, the clerks treat him rudely. The first clerk sends him away casually, and the third clerk is impatient and even mocks him when he says he will pay in a month. However, when they see Henry's million-pound bank note, their attitude turns completely polite. The owner is shocked and respectfully invites Henry to choose more suits, saying he can wait forever for payment.
The change is only because of the million-pound bank note. This shows some people are snobbish and judge others by wealth or appearance. In my opinion, this is very wrong. We should treat others equally, no matter how rich or poor they are. True respect should be based on a person's character, not their material conditions.
