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.

飞机快把我逼疯了。我住在机场附近，日夜都能听见飞机飞过的声音。 这座机场多年前就建好了，可当时不知为什么一直没用起来，直到去年才投入使用。 想必已经有一百多人被噪声逼得搬了家，我是少数留下来的人之一。 有时我觉得，飞过的飞机迟早会把这房子撞倒。有人愿意出一大笔钱让我搬走，可我就是决心留下。 人人都说我准是疯了，也许他们说得对。
学完这一课
先沿这条线复述《是不是疯了》：噪声让人受不了 → 机场后来才启用 → 邻居相继搬走 → 担心却坚持留下 → 或许真是疯了。再借一个结构讲自己的事：把本课一个被动句改成有明确执行者的主动句，比较关注点有什么变化。
