'I am a foreigner,' I said.他回答了，但他讲得既不慢也不清晰。“我是个外国人，”我说Then he spoke slowly, but I could not understand him. My teacher never spoke English like that!于是他说得慢了，可我还是听不懂。我 的老师从来不那样讲英语！The porter and I looked at each other and smiled. Then he said something and I understood it.我和搬运工相视一笑。接着，他说了点什么，这回我听懂了'You'll soon learn English!' he said. I wonder.

I wonder.他会来吃饭吗？我怀疑。（3）n奇迹，奇观，奇才；惊异，惊异：Jane is a wonder. She never fails in her examinations.简是个奇才。她从来没有考试不及格过。She looked at the boss in wonder.她惊异地看着老板。the seven wonders of the world in ancient times世界古代7大奇观2each other从原则上讲，这个短语指两个人“相互”：You and I must try to help each other.你我两个人必需尽力相互帮助。有时，这个短语也可以用来指很多人之间“相互”：We must all help each other.我们大家都必需相互帮助。Lesson 25 课后练习和答案Exercises and Answer本文来源：网络收集与整理，如有侵权，请联系作者删除，谢谢！第8页 共8页第 8 页 共 8 页第 8 页 共 8 页第 8 页 共 8 页第 8 页 共 8 页第 8 页 共 8 页第 8 页 共 8 页第 8 页 共 8 页第 8 页 共 8 页第 8 页 共 8 页第 8 页 共 8 页
