一、INTRODUCTION 选文简介:《第一顿晚餐》(First Dinner)一节选自女作家基兰·斯科特的小说《吻后语》(Kiss and Tell)。故事发生在一座夏令营里。阿比说服了她的中学好友格雷格,来到了她每年都参加的埃默森夏令营。在那儿他们分别被来自纽约的威尔和乔安娜所吸引。威尔和乔安娜都来参加夏令营的戏剧组,但他们由于以前的不快彼此讨厌对方。阿比策划着把格雷格和乔安娜促成一对,却发现自己吃醋了,从而认识到她真正爱着的是格雷格,而不是外表英俊的威尔。整个故事由于两对人捉迷藏式的不断探寻对方而变得回味无穷。故事的结局也令人大感意外。本篇选文描绘的是进入夏令营后的第一顿晚餐时格雷格带着同室的威尔进入餐厅,先领教了夏令营管理人戴蒙的威力,后被乔安娜的美貌深深吸引的情景。
First, INTRODUCTION The brief introduction of the article: “First Dinner” (First Dinner) is selected from the female writer Kiran Scott’s novel “Kiss and Tell”. The story takes place in a summer camp. Abi persuaded her high school friend, Greg, to come to the Emerson Summer Camp she attended every year. There they were attracted by Will and Joanna from New York. Both Will and Joanna came to play in the drama team at the summer camp, but they hated each other because of their previous displeasure. Abi was planning to make Greg and Joanna together, but found himself jealous, and realized that she really loved Greg instead of handsome. The entire story has become memorable because two pairs of people are constantly looking for each other. The end of the story is also surprising. This selection depicts the first dinner after the summer camp when Greg took the same room with Will into the restaurant, first learned the power of summer camp manager Dimon, and was deeply attracted by Joanna’s beauty.
