Unit 3 The Rite of SpringArthur Miller1.I have never understood why we keep a garden and why over 36 years ago when I bought myfirst house in the country, I started digging up a patch for vegetables before doing anything else. When you think how easy and cheap, relatively, it is to buy a bunch of carrots or beets, why raise them? And root crops especially are hard to tell apart, when store-bought, from our own. There is a human instinct at work here, a kind of back-breaking make-believe that has no reality. Besides, I don't particularly like eating vegetables. I'd much rather eat something juicy and fat. Like hot dogs.2.Now, if you could raise hot dogs outside your window, you'd really have something you couldjustify without a second's hesitation. As it is, though, I cannot deny that when April comes I find myself going out to lean on the fence and look at that miserable plot of land, resolving with all my rational powers not to plant it again. But inevitably a morning arrives when, just as I am awakening, a scent wafts through the window, something like earth-as-air, a scent that seems to come up from the very center of this planet. And the sun means business, suddenly, and has a different, deeper yellow in its beams on the carpet. The birds begin screaming hysterically, thinking what I am thinking—the worms are deliciously worming their way through the melting soil.3.It is not only pleasure sending me back to stare at that plot of soil, it is really conflict. Thequestion is the same each year—what method should we use? The last few years we put 36-inch-wide black plastic between the rows, and it worked perfectly, keeping the soil moist in dry times and weed-free.4.But black plastic looks so industrial, so unromantic, that I have gradually moved over to haymulch. We cut a lot of hay and, as it rots, it does improve the soil's Composition. Besides, it looks lovely, and comes to us free.5.Keeping a garden makes you aware of how delicate, bountiful, and easily ruined the surfaceof this little planet is. In that 50-by-70-foot patch there must be a dozen different types of soil.Tomato won't grow in one part but loves another, and the same goes for the other crops. I suppose if you loaded the soil with chemical fertilizer these differences would be less noticeable, but I use it sparingly and only in rows right where seeds are planted rather than broadcast over the whole area. I'm not sure why I do this beyond the saving in fertilizer and my unwillingness to aid the weeds.6.The attractions of gardening, I think, at least for a certain number of gardeners, are neuroticand moral. Whenever life seems pointless and difficult to grasp, you can always get out in the garden and get something done. Also, your paternal or maternal instincts come into play because helpless living things are depending on you, require training and encouragement and protection from enemies. In some cases, as with beans and cucumbers, your children—as it were—begin to turn upon you in massive numbers, growing more and more each morning and threatening to follow you into the house to strangle you in their vines.7.Gardening is a moral occupation, as well, because you always start in spring resolved to keepit looking neat this year, just like the pictures in the catalogues. But by July, you once again face the chaos of unthinned carrots, lettuce and beets. This is when my wife becomes—openly now—mistress of the garden. A consumer of vast quantities of vegetables, she does the thinning and hand-cultivating of the tiny plants. Squatting, she patiently moves down each row selecting which plants shall live and which she will cast aside.8.At about this time, my wife's 86-year-old mother, a botanist, makes her first visit to the garden.She looks about skeptically. Her favorite task is binding the tomato plants to stakes. She is an outspoken, truthful woman, or she was until she learned better. Now, instead of saying, "You have planted the tomatoes in the damp part of the garden," she waits until October when she makes her annual trip to her home in Europe; then she gives me my good-by kiss and says casually," Tomatoes in damp soil tend more to get fungi," and walks away to her plane. But by October nothing in the garden matters, so sure am I that I will never plant it again.9.I garden, I suppose, because I must. It would be intolerable to have to pass an unplantedfenced garden a few times a day. There are also certain compensations, and these must be what annually turn my mind toward all that work. There are few sights quite as beautiful as a vegetable garden glistening in the sun, all dewy and glittering with a dozen shades of green at seven in the morning. Far lovelier, in fact, than rows of hot dogs. In some pocket of the mind there may even be a tendency to change this vision into a personal reassurance that all this healthy growth, this orderliness and thrusting life must somehow reflect similar movements in one's own spirit. Without a garden to till and plant I would not know what April was for.10.As it is, April is for getting irritated all over again at this pointless, time-consuming hobby. I donot understand people who claim to "love" gardening. A garden is an extension of oneself—or selves—and so it has to be an arena where striving does not cease, but continues by other means. As an example: you simply have to face the moment when you must admit that the lettuce was planted too deep or was not watered enough, cease hoping it will show itself tomorrow, and dig up the row again. But you will feel better for not standing on your dignity.And that's what gardening is all about—character building. Which is why Adam was a gardener.(And all know where it got him, too.)11.But is it conceivable that the father of us all should have been a weaver, shoemaker, oranything but a gardener? Of course not. Only the gardener is capable of endlessly reviving so much hope that this year, regardless of drought, flood, typhoon, or his own stupidity, this year he is going to do it right! Leave it to God to have picked the proper occupation for his only creature capable of such self-delusion.12.I suppose it should be added, for honesty's sake, that the above was written on one of thecoldest days in December.。

Unit3Section A 2dA: Tony, could you please help out with a few things?B: Could I at least finish watching this show?A: No, I think two hours of TV is enough for you!B: Fine. What do you want me to do?A: Could you take out the rubbish fold the clothes and do the dishes? B: So much?A: Yes, because mom will be back from shopping any minute now. And she won't be happy if she sees this mess.B: But the house is already pretty clean and tidy!A: Yes, well, it is clean, but it is not "mother clean"!3aLast month our dog welcomed me when I came home from school.He wanted a walk, but I was too tired.I threw down my bag and went to the living room.The minute I sat down in front of the TV, my mom came over."Could you please take the dog for a walk? "she asked."Could I watch 1 show first?"I asked."No!"She replied angrily."You watch TV all the time and never help out around the house! I can't work all day and do housework all evening."Well, I work all day at school, too!I'm just as tired as you are!"I shouted back.My mom did not say anything and walked away.For 1 week she didn't do any housework and neither did I.Finally I could not find a clean dish or a clean shirt.The next day my mom came home from work to find the house clean and tidy.“What happened?”She asked in surprise. “I'm so sorry, mom. I finally understand that we need to share the housework to have a clean and comfortable home," I replied.Section B 2bDear sir，I do not understand why some parents make their kids help with housework and chores at home.Kids these days already have enough stress from school.They do not have time to study and do housework too.Housework is a waste of their time.Could we just let them do their job as students?They should spend their time on school work in order to get good grades and get into a good university.Also when they get older they will have to do housework, so there is no need for them to do it now.It is the parents' job to provide a clean and comfortable environment at home for their children.And anyway, I think doing chores is not so difficult.I do not mind doing them.Ms MillerDear sir,I think it is important for children to learn how to do chores and help their parents with housework.It is not enough to just get good grades at school.Children these days depend on their parents too much.They are always asking, "Could you get this for me?" or" Could you help me with that?"Doing chores helps to develop children's independence and teaches them how to look after themselves.It also helps them to understand the idea of fairness.Since they live in one house with their parents, they should know that everyone should do their part in keeping it clean and tidy.Our neighbors' son got into a good college but during his first year, he had no idea how to take care of himself.As a result, he often felt ill and his grades dropped.The earlier kids learn to be independent, the better it is for their future.Mr Smith。

八年级下册英语牛津第三课课文
八年级下册英语牛津第三课课文In the bustling city of London, there was a small, quaint school that seemed almost hidden by the towering buildings surrounding it. This school, known for its rigorous academic program and diverse student body, was in the midst of an exciting week dedicated to cultural exchange. The eighth-grade class had been preparing for months, and now it was time to showcase their hard work.The students had been assigned different countries to research and represent. They delved into languages, customs, traditional clothing, and, most importantly, the educational systems of their chosen nations. Among the students, Emily and Liam had been paired up to study and present about China, a country with a rich history and a rapidly evolving educational landscape.Emily, with her keen interest in languages, had taken the lead on learning basic Mandarin phrases. She practiced day and night, determined to greet the audience in a language that was entirely foreign to her just a few months ago. Liam, on the other hand, was fascinated by history and spent his time researching China's educational reforms and the significance of the Gaokao, China's national college entrance examination.As the day of the presentation approached, the classroom transformed into a mini United Nations. Flags of various countries adorned the walls, and traditional music played softly in the background, creating an atmosphere of global unity. The students, dressed in their respective traditional attires, were a vibrant mosaic of the world's cultures.Emily and Liam's turn came, and they stepped forward with confidence. Emily greeted the audience with a cheerful "Nǐ hǎo," which was met with applause and admiration from her classmates and teachers. Liam followed with an insightful overview of China's education system, highlighting the balance between maintaining traditional methods and embracing new, innovative approaches to learning.Their presentation was not just a mere recitation of facts; it was a story that wove together the threads of language, history, and culture into a tapestry that illustrated thedepth and complexity of education in China. They talked about the importance of the English language in Chinese schools, particularly the role of textbooks like the Oxford English series, which provided a window into the Western world for Chinese students.As they concluded, Emily and Liam reflected on what they had learned through this project. It was not just about the grades or the applause; it was about understanding and appreciating the diversity that exists within their own classroom and beyond. They realized that education is a journey that transcends borders and that knowledge is a bridge connecting people from all walks of life.The cultural exchange week ended with a celebration of unity and learning. The students had not only expanded their horizons but also formed bonds that would last a lifetime. The small school in London had become a microcosm of the world, and the eighth graders had taken their first steps toward becoming global citizens.As the sun set on this memorable week, the students left the school with a sense of accomplishment and a newfound appreciation for the world's cultures. They understood that while they came from different backgrounds, they shared a common pursuit of knowledge and a collective hope for a future filled with understanding, cooperation, and peace. 。
