When the plane arrived, some of the detectives were waiting inside the main building while others were waiting on the airfield.

To their surprise, the precious parcel was full of stones and sand!

Why is Joe's garden the most beautiful one in the town?
Joe Sanders has the most beautiful garden in our town. Nearly everybody enters for 'The Nicest Garden Competition' each year, but Joe wins every time. Bill Frith's garden is larger than Joe's. Bill works harder than Joe and grows more flowers and vegetables, but Joe's garden is more interesting. He has made neat paths and has built a wooden bridge over a pool. I like gardens too, but I do not like hard work. Every year I enter for the garden competition too, and I always win a little prize for the worst garden in the town!

First listen and then answer the question.
听录音，然后回答以下问题。
What does 'a cold welcome' refer to?
On Wednesday evening, we went to the Town Hall. It was the last day of the year and a large crowd of people had gathered under the Town Hall clock. It would strike twelve in twenty minutes' time. Fifteen minutes passed and then, at five to twelve, the clock stopped. The big minute hand did not move. We waited and waited, but nothing happened. Suddenly someone shouted. 'It's two minutes past twelve! The clock has stopped!' I looked at my watch. It was true. The big clock refused to welcome the New Year. At that moment, everybody began to laugh and sing.
Lesson 10
Not for jazz
不适于演奏爵士乐
First listen and then answer the question.
听录音，然后回答以下问题。
What happened to the clavichord?
We have an old musical instrument. It is called a clavichord. It was made in Germany in 1681. Our clavichord is kept in the living room. It has belonged to our family for a long time. The instrument was bought by my grandfather many years ago. Recently it was damaged by a visitor. She tried to play jazz on it! She struck the keys too hard and two of the strings were broken. My father was shocked. Now we are not allowed to touch it. It is being repaired by a friend of my father's.
2）so he finds his trip very exciting 也是可以的。课本没用这种说法，但是并不代表不可以这么用。
我的理解是第一句and是指并且 主语不是同一件事 因为句意是他正在干什么职业并且曾经做过某事 and 是转折不是并列 第二句的话因为那趟旅程还没结束啊 他不是对已经结束的事发表感受
新2啊。真怀念。A:( 1 ) and 连接的时态一致没错。不过此处只表联接两个句子。请看 参考译文___蒂姆是个工程师,正在一家大公司工作,<并且>已经去过奥大利亚不少地方了。he可以去掉啊，不过也不是一定要去掉。(这样写纯属L.G.Alexander贱呗…)( 2 ):前面的半句话不是现在完成时么，这半句当然也要用现在时了。恩。///我擦这都啥破问题、、、\\\
