Lesson 21 Mad or not

一、原文

Aeroplanes are slowly driving me mad.

I live near an airport and passing planes can be heard night and day. The

airport was built years ago, but for some reason it could not be used then. Last

year, however, it came into use.

Over a hundred people must have been driven away from their homes by the

noise. I am one of the few people left. Sometimes I think this house will be

knocked down by a passing plane.

I have been offered a large sum of money to go away, but I am determined to

stay here. Everybody says I must be mad and they are probably right.

二、参考译文

许他们说的是对的。
