2022-2023学年八年级英语上册单元话题拓展阅读Unit 8 Natural disastersAMany animals do strange things before an earthquake. This news may be important. Earthquakes can kill people and knock down homes. The animals may help to save lives.Some animals make a lot of noise before an earthquake. Farmers have told about this. Dogs that are usually quiet have started to bark(吠). Horses on farms have run around in circles. Mice have left their holes and run away. Cows have given less milk.In a town in Italy, cats raced down the street in a group. That happened only a few hours before an earthquake. In San Francisco, a man kept tiny pet frogs. One Sunday, the frogs jumped around more than ever. They made loud noises, like bigger frogs. That night, an earthquake struck the city.People want to know when an earthquake is coming. Then they could get away safely. Right now, there is no sure way to know ahead of time. Maybe the best idea is watching the animals.(1)This passage is mainly about _____.A.how animals act before an earthquakeB.how an earthquake startsC.how mice leave their homesD.how animals live every day(2)Before the earthquake in Italy, quiet dogs _____.A.ran away B.started to barkC.climbed trees D.jump into the water(3)Before the earthquake in Italy, the frogs _____.A.sang B.jumped into the waterC.died D.jumped around a lotBThe leaders (领导人)of 13 countries had a big meeting in St Petersburg, Russia from November 21 to 24, 2010.The meeting was about tigers. They talked about the ways to protect the animals in their countries. They agreed to spend more money protecting tigers and they wanted to double the number oftigers in the world before 2022.Tiger is one of the world's most endangered animals. The World Wildlife Fund (WWF)says, there are only about 100,000 wild tigers now. And the number is becoming smaller and smaller. 'If nothing happens, tigers will face disasters,' said WWF spokeswoman Marie von Zeipel.Nine types of tigers lived 100 years ago, but now at least three of them have died out. ‘If people leave tigers alone and don’t kill them, then the number of tigers will double in 10 years,’ said Jean-Christoph Vie, a French tiger expert (专家).China is one of the 13 countries where tigers live. There are about 50 wild tigers in China now. They are the Bengal tigers in Tibet, Indochinese tigers in China's southwest, and Siberian tigers in the northeast. The South China tigers lived in southeast China many years ago but disappeared in the 1970s. Many experts think they have already died out.(1)What's the meeting in St Petersburg mainly about?A.How to help tigers find a better place to live.B.How to protect tigers in their countries.C.How to stop people from hunting the wild animals.D.How to count the number of tigers in the world.(2)Which of the following is TRUE according to the WWF?A.Many tigers have died only because people hunt them.B.About 3,200 tigers have died in the past 100 years.C.There are more and more tigers these years.D.There are about 100,000 wild tigers in the world now.(3)In Jean-Christoph Vie's opinion, the best way to double the number of tigers in 10 years is__________.A.to do nothingB.to keep all of them in the zooC.to stop people from killing themD.to build more nature reserves for tigers(4)How many types of tigers were there in China 50 years ago?A.3B.4C.13D.50CMaybe you know floods, earthquakes, sandstorms and so on. But have you heard of typhoons?Typhoons are some of the worst storms, usually around the Pacific Ocean and the South China Sea. Most happen in July, August and September.How does a typhoon happen? When lots of sea water gets hot in the summer sun, it evaporates (蒸发)into the air. This makes the air hotter. When the air gets warm enough, it starts to move higher up into sky. Then cooler air around it rushes in. It fills the space that is left. After the air gets warmer, it starts to move quickly, making wind. The wind goes in circles(圆圈)and it keeps moving higher in the sky. The warmer the air gets, the quicker the wind moves. And when the wind moves faster than 30 metres a second, a typhoon begins.A typhoon has two parts, one is called the “eye”. In the eye, the wind does not move so fast. The other part is the wall of clouds around the eye. Here are the strongest winds and hardest rains.Typhoons are very dangerous. In November this year, Typhoon Haiyan killed 5500 people in Philippines. More people are missing.What to do when a typhoon hits?Stay inside. Close all the windows and stay away from them.Try to bring all of your things inside. Strong winds could even blow away your bikes!Listen to the radio or TV for important information.If you're told to go to a safer place, do it right now.(1)This passage is most probably from .A.an advertisement of a typhoon B.a travel recordC.a weather report D.a science magazine(2)Typhoons often happen .A.in the hot season B.in the cold seasonC.only in China D.under the sea(3)In which order(顺序)does a typhoon happen?a. The wind moves fast enough, a typhoon starts.b. The air moves quickly, making wind.c. The sun makes sea water hot.d. The air gets warmer.A.d-c-b-a B.c-d-b-a C.c-d-a-b D.d-b-a-c(4)Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.The warmer the air gets, the slower the wind moves.B.5500 people died because of Typhoon Haiyan around the world.C.The strongest winds and hardest rains are in the wall of clouds.D.A typhoon will not happen before the wind goes faster than 30 km a second.(5)When a typhoon comes, we CANNOT .A.close all the windows B.listen to typhoon newsC.stay inside the strong house D.go outside to find a safer placeD根据短文回答问题What is a hurricane?You may already know that hurricanes are storms that can cause devastating(毁灭性的)waves, wind, and rain. They happen during “Hurricane Season,” which is from June 1st until November 30th in the Atlantic Ocean and from May 15th until November 30th in the Pacific Ocean.Categories(类别)of HurricanesThere are five categories of hurricanes, which are based on wind speeds. The categories help people know how much damage(危害)a hurricane may cause because the greater the wind speed, the more dangerous the storm is. For example, a Category 5 hurricane has winds over 155 miles per hour, which are strong enough to destroy the buildings along the shorelines completely.Hurricane DangersWhen a hurricane happens together with heavy rainfall, there can be a devastating flood. The centre of a hurricane is called the eye. While most of a hurricane has dangerously strong winds, the eye is actually(事实上)a calm area in the storm. When the eye of a hurricane passes over land, people might think that it's over, but before long the wind and rain increase again as the second part of the hurricane moves through.Hurricane Safety TipsThere is no way to stop a hurricane or make it change direction, so if you ever find yourself in the path of a hurricane, be sure to remember the following safety tips.Be sure you have a radio, batteries, fresh drinking water, and enough food.Tell neighbours, friends, and family members your emergency plans. Tell them where you'll go if you need to leave your home.If you live near the ocean, leave your home and travel to a safe place. You could stay with a friend or a family member, in a hotel or in an emergency shelter area.Stay inside during the storm. You could be seriously injured (受伤) if you go outside.(1)When is Hurricane Season?___________________________________________(2)What are categories of hurricanes based on?___________________________________________(3)What is called the eye?___________________________________________(4)How many hurricane safety tips are mentioned(提到) in the passage?___________________________________________(5)What should you do most probably if a hurricane happens?(自拟一句话作答)___________________________________________EExtreme weather seems to be everywhere these days. It is sometimes related to climate change. Yet it can be hard to see the effect on people's lives. I began documenting that effect in 2007, when I pictured two floods that occurred within weeks of each other, one in the U.K. and the other in India. I was deeply shocked by the different effects of these floods and the damage that their victims seemed to share.Since then I have visited flood zones around the world. I travelled to many countries, like Australia, Thailand and Nigeria. In flooded places, life is suddenly turned upside down, and normal life is temporarily gone.Photos are the most important in my research. I often follow people as they return home through deep waters, and work with them to take a close look at their flooded homes. Though their poses may be conventional, their environment is changed. The change makes them upset. Often they're abouttheir circumstances or the improper response from the government. Many want their sufferings to be seen and want the world to know what has happened to them.I shoot on film with old Rolleiflex cameras. Digital would be easier, but the texture of film has a particular quality for me. The use of an old camera makes the situation more formal and serious.In many cultures, the flood is described as a destructive force in old stories. It makes humans feel powerless. As weather becomes more extreme, the story in the Bible(圣经) is becoming literal.(1)The key to the author's research is ______.A.countries B.deep waters C.photos D.flooded homes (2)Which word do you think should be put in the blank in Paragraph 3?A.angry B.excited C.anxious D.sad(3)The meaning of "texture" in the fourth paragraph is closest to _______.A.结构B.内容C.课本D.质地(4)In many legends of different countries, the flood is recorded as_______.A.a destroying power B.a phenomenon of extreme weatherC.a formal situation D.a unrealistic Bible storyFDust storms (沙尘暴) appear when strong wind blows sand and dirt from a dry surface. Strong dust storms may cause deaths, so you should know how to protect yourself from dust storms when you meet them.Be careful of dust storm warningsDust storms probably happen on hot summer days, and it's not safe for people to travel during this period. So you should listen to the local TV or radio before travelling, and consider changing or giving up your trip if dust storms are predicted (预测) .Be preparedIf you are in a place where storms happen often, carry a mask (面具) to keep dust and dirt away from your face, and a pair of glasses to protect your eyes.Stay insideDo not move around when a dust storm comes, as you will not be able to see hidden (隐藏的) dangers, So if you are in a house, don't go out and just stay inside.Protect yourself from flying objectsCover your body as much as possible in a dust storm. A strong wind of dust storms can carry heavy objects, so you should try to stay low, and close to the ground, and protect your head with your arms or a backpack.(1)What should you do before you travel according to the passage?A.Pack your backpack B.Bring some money with you.C.Listen to the local TV or radio.D.Tell your parents and friends.(2) We can learn from the passage thatA.it is safe to travel on hot summer daysB.people should stay inside when a dust storm comesC.a strong wind of dust storms can't carry heavy objectsD.a pair of glasses is enough when a dust storm happens(3) Which of the following may be needed when you meet a dust storm?A.A knife.B.A mask.C.A pair of glasses.D.B and C.(4) The underlined word "dirt" mentioned in the first paragraph means "______" in Chinese.A.烂泥B.砂砾C.丑闻D.尘土(5) What's the main idea of this passage?A.How to predict dust storms.B.How to reduce dust storms.C.How to protect yourself from dust storms.D.How dust storms form.GA long time ago, floods(洪水)often happened. The food buried(掩埋)the lands and broke the houses. People felt that they were living in danger every day.The flood really hurt a lot of people, so people began to think about how to solve this problem. At thattime, a man named Gun led people to control the food. All he did was to build the dam (坝) to keep the water out of villages.Nine years later, there were still floods. His son Yu went on controlling the flood. In order to control the flood, Yu didn't return home for thirteen years. In the past thirteen years, he ran everywhere, passing by his home three times. But he never walked into it to have a look. In his opinion, nothing was more important than what he was doing.Yu learned from the experience of Gun's and came up with a better way to control the flood. Together with many people, he dredged (疏浚) many rivers. So the flood could pass through the rivers and then go into the sea. The flood finally died down and people moved their homes back.(1)How did Gun control the floods?A.He led people to build dams.B.He ran to look for lands.C.He led people to move away.D.He repaired broken houses.(2) Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.Yu continued Gun's work eight years later.B.Yu didn't return home for thirty years.C.Yu passed by his home three times a year.D.Yu found better ways to control floods.(3) From the passage we can know that __________ is the best way to control the flood.A.calling on people B.working with familyC.dredging rivers D.building some dams(4) What's the best title for the passage?A.A Story of Gun's Life B.A Story of Controlling FloodC.A Story of Yu's Father D.A Story of Moving a VillageHWhat is a tsunami (海啸) ? Tsunamis are often caused by earthquakes or volcanoes (火山) . The average speed (平均速度) of the waves (波浪) is 300 mph and the waves can last from five minutes to an hour.What to do in a tsunami?Firstly, when a strong earthquake is felt, leave the water at once, get to the shore (海岸) and go as far away as you can from the beach fast. If it allows, go to a higher ground.Secondly, turn on the TV for news and weather report. They will tell you more about the tsunami.Thirdly, get all members of your family together and let everyone know the tsunami is coming. Choose a place to stay together. Make sure the place is safe and as far away from the shore as possible. Bring emergency supplies (应急用品) when you have to leave your house.At last, if you find a huge wave is coming, climb onto the roof of your house or on the highest point of the nearest building. Hold on to anything that's strong enough. Climb a tree if you have to.For a tsunami, the only way to survive (幸免于) it is to be prepared.(1)When a tsunami comes, the waves will ________.A.go as quickly as 300 mphB.become stronger before the earthquakeC.cause heavy rainD.last shorter and shorter(2) How many suggestions are mentioned in this passage?A.Two.B.Three.C.Four.D.Five.(3) When a tsunami is coming, your family had better ________.A.go to the beach togetherB.stay in a safe place togetherC.stay in your houseD.put emergency supplies on a lower ground(4) We should do the following when a tsunami is coming EXCEPT ________.A.listening to the weather reportB.going to a low place to keep safeC.getting emergency supplies readyD.leaving the water as far away as you can(5) What's the best title of the passage?A.How to keep safe in the water B.What a tsunami isC.What to do after a tsunami D.How to survive a tsunami参考答案A【答案】(1)A(2)B(3)D【解析】短文大意:在地震发生之前,许多动物会有奇怪的举动,这条消息也许很重要。

译林牛津版英语八年级下册 Unit 8 拓展阅读:7 Environmental Problems That Are Worse Than We Thought

译林牛津版英语八年级下册 Unit 8 拓展阅读:7 Environmental Problems That Are Worse Than We Thought

With as much attention as the environment has been getting lately, you’d think that we’d be further along in our fight to preserve the world’s species, resources and the beautiful diversity of nature. Unfortunately, things aren’t nearly that rosy. In fact, many of the environmental problems that have received the most public attention are even worse than we thought – from destruction in the rain forest to melting glaciers in the Arctic. We’ve got a lot of work to do.7. Mammal ExtinctionOne in four mammal s is threatened with extinction. That’s 25%, a huge number that will totally change the ecology of every corner of the earth. We could see thousands of species die out in our lifetime, and the rate of habitat loss and hunting in crucial areas like Southeast Asia, Central Africa and Central and South America is growing so rapidly, these animals barely have a chance.If you think the extinction of an animal like the beautiful Iberian Lynx is no big deal, and wouldn’t have that much of an effect on the planet, think again. Not only would we be losing – mostly due to our own disregard for our surroundings – so much of the awe-inspiring diversity of nature, mass extinctions like this would cause a serious imbalance in the world’s food chain. When a predator disa ppears, the prey will multiply. When prey dies out, the predator will see its ranks decrease as well. Many people fail to realize just how interconnected all species on this planet really are.6. The Ocean Dead ZonesIn oceans around the world, there are eerie areas that are devoid of nearly all life. These ‘dead zones’ are characterized by a lack of oxygen, and they’re caused by excess nitrogen from farm fertilizers, emissions from vehicles and factories, and sewage. The number of dead zones has been growing fast –since the 1960’s, the number of dead zones has doubled every 10 years. They range in size from under a square mile to 45,000 square miles, and the most infamous one of all is in the Gulf of Mexico, a product of toxic sludge that flows down the Mississippi from farms in the Midwest. These ‘hypoxic’ zones now cover an area roughly the size of Oregon.Spanish researches recently found that many species die off at oxygen levels well above the current definition of ‘uninhabitable’, suggesting that th e extent of dead zones in coastal areas that support fishing is much worse than previously thought. Robert Diaz, a Virginia Institute of Marine Science biologist, said “Everything is pointing towards a more desperate situation in all aquatic systems, freshwater and marine. That’s pretty clear. People should be worried, all over the world.”As if that weren’t bad enough, global warming will likely aggravate the problem. A rise in carbon dioxide in the atmosphere will change rainfall patterns, which could create an increase in runoff from rivers into the seas in many areas.5. Collapsing Fish StockMillions of people across the world depend upon fish as a major staple in their diet. As such, commercial fishermen have been pulling such a huge quantity of fish from the oceans that we’re heading toward a global collapse of all species currently fished – possibly as soon as the year 2048. Like large-scale mammal extinction, the collapse of fish species would have a major impact on the world’s ecosystems.It’s no t too late – yet – if overfishing and other threats to fish populations are reduced as soon as possible. Marine systems are still biologically diverse, but catastrophic loss of fish species is close at hand. 29 percent of species have been fished so heavily or have been so affected by pollution that they’re down to 10 percent of their previous population levels. If we continue the way we are fishing today, there will be a 100 percent collapse by mid-century, so we’ve got to turn this around fast.4. Destruction of the Rain Forest‘Saving the rain forest’ has been at the forefront of the environmental movement for decades, yet here we are facing huge losses in the Amazon all the same. You might have thought that, with all the attention the rain forest has go tten, it wouldn’t need so much saving anymore –but unfortunately, global warming and deforestation mean that half of the Amazon rain forest will likely be destroyed or severely damaged by 2030.The World Wildlife Fund concluded this summer that agriculture, drought, fire, logging and livestock ranching will cause major damage to 55 percent of the Amazon rain forest in the next 22 years. Another 4 percent will see damage due to reduced rainfall, courtesy of global warming. These factors will destroy up to 80 percent of the rain forest’s wildlife. Losing 60 percent of the rain forest would accelerate global warming and affect rainfall in places as far away as India. Massive destruction to the rain forest would have a domino effect on the rest of the world.The WWF says that the ‘point of no return’, from which recovery will be impossible, is only 15 to 25 years away.3. Polar Sea Ice LossPolar sea ice is melting at an unprecedented rate, and it’s not showing any signs of slowing down. It’s perhaps the most dramatic, startling visual evidence of global warming, and it’s got scientists rushing to figure out just how big of an effect the melting is going to have on the rest of the world.British researchers said last week that the thickness of sea ice in the Arctic decreased dramatically last winter for the first time since records began in the early 1990s. The research showed a significant loss in thickness on the northern ice cap after the record loss of ice during the summer of 2007.Scientific American wa rns that “human fingerprints have been detected” on both theArctic and Antarctic regions. Antarctica had previously appeared to be the only continent on the planet where humanity’s impact on climate change hadn’t been observed. The collapse of the Larsen B and Wilkins ice shelves in the Antarctic Peninsula shows just how fast the region is warming.2. CO2 Levels in the AtmosphereThe aforementioned polar sea ice loss is yet another sinister sign of carbon dioxide levels building up in the atmosphere –the main force behind global warming. Greenhouse gas emissions caused by our modern way of life – vehicles, power plants, factories, giant livestock farms – will bring devastating climate change within decades if they stay at today’s levels.Average temperatures could increase by as much as 12 degrees Fahrenheit by the end of the century if emissions continue to rise, a figure that would easily make the world virtually uninhabitable for humans. A global temperature rise of just 7.2 degrees Fahrenheit would cause a catastrophic domino effect, bringing weather extremes that would result in food and water shortages and destructive floods.The most recent report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change represents “the final nail in the coffin” of climate change denial, representing the most authoritative picture to date that global warming is caused by human activity. According to the panel, we must make a swift and significant switch to clean, efficient and renewable energy technologies in order to prevent the worst-case scenario.1. Population ExplosionWhether we like to admit it or not, our very own rapidly multiplying presence on this planet is the biggest environmental problem there is, and it’s getting bigger by the minute. We voraciously consume resources, pollute the air and water, tear down natural habitats, introduce species into areas where they don’t belong and destroy ecosystems to the point of causing millions of species to become endangered and, all too often, go extinct.It took nearly all of human history – from the first days of man on earth until the early 1800’s –to reach a global population of 1 billion. In just 200 years, we’ve managed to reach 6.5 billion. That means the population has grown more since 1950 than in the previous four million years. We’re adding roughly 74 million people to the planet every year, a scary figure that will probably continue to increase. All of those mouths will need to be fed. All of those bodies will need clean water and a place to sleep. All of the new communities created to house those people will continue to encroach upon the natural world.All seven environmental problems detailed above are very serious, and we’ve got to start treating them that way. We may not have easy solutions, but the fact is, we simply can’t continue living our lives as if everything is peachy. These problemsaren’t going to magically solve themselves. We should have begun acting generations ago, but we can’t go back in time, and that means we have to step up our efforts. If we want to keep this planet a healthy place for humans to live – for our grandchildren to enjoy –it’s time to buckle down and do everything in our power to reverse the damage we’ve done.。

Unit6 Cooking at homeAOur eating habits are very important for good health and a strong body. There are times when most of us would prefer sweets and ice-cream to meat and rice. Sweets and ice-cream are not bad for the stomach if we eat at the end of a meal. If we cat before a meal, they may take away our appetite (食欲). It is important for us to eat our meal at the same time each day. When we feel hungry, it is a sign that our body needs food. When we feel angry or excited, we may not want to eat. A long time ago, in England some judges used to decide whether a man was telling truth by giving him some dry bread. If the man could not swallow(吞下)the bread, it was a sign that he was not telling the truth. He was telling lies. Though this seems very strange and rather foolish, it is indeed an excellent way of finding out the truth. A man who is worrying about something had difficulty in swallowing anything dry because he loses his appetite and does not want to cat.( ) 1. We have to form good eating habits because__________.A. we want to keep fitB. we enjoy our mealsC. we want to eat moreD. we want to save time( ) 2. According to the passage we may eat sweets and ice -cream__________.A. when we are happyB. when we have a good appetiteC. after a mealD. before a meal( ) 3. When would it be better to have our meals according to the writerA. When our work is overB. At the regular time every dayC. When the meal is still hotD. When every family member is home ( ) 4. If a man is worrying he __________.A. has no appetiteB. wants to eat more foodC. wants to drinkD. seems rather foolishBThese days, many people have weight problems. In fact, it’s not difficult to loseweight(减肥). And you don’t even have to give up the food you love or join a gym (体育馆). You just follow some ways that thin people have. Keep them, and you’ll become thin.(1) Start with soupHave a clear soup first before you have the main food. In this way, you’ll feel fuller, so you’ll eat less when the main food comes.(2) An apple (or more)a dayApples are full of fiber (纤维) and water, so your stomach will want less.

No pizza will ever taste as fresh as it does when you eat it straight from your own oven. This article gives instructions on how to make hot, fresh pizza the fast way, or fromscratch. Scroll to the bottom for a section on popular toppings combinations. IngredientsPizza1 pizza basePizza sauceFavourite pizza toppingsGrated mozzarella cheesePizza from Scratch1¹/₂ cups (350 ml) of warm water1 package or 2¹/₂ teaspoons (11ml) of active dry yeast3¹/₂-4cups (830-950ml) of flour (bread or all-purpose)2 teaspoons (30 ml) of olive oil3 cups(710 ml) of homemade pizza sauceFavorite pizza toppings4 cups (950 ml) of grated mozzarella cheeseCornmeal2 teaspoons ml) of saltPopular ToppingsGrated cheese (mozzarella, romano, parmesan, goat cheese or some combination) Sliced pepperoniChopped onionsGreen peppersSausageBacon or bacon bitsChicken chunksOlives (Black, green, or stuffed)MushroomsGround beefHam piecesPineapple slicesBasilRoasted garlicBarbecue chickenMethodStep 1 Preheat the oven to 400°F (204C). The oven should be piping hot before you start cooking the pizza.Step2 Prepare the crust. Remove the unbaked crust from the packaging. Place it on a round or rectangular baking sheet, depending on what you have on hand. Use a pastry brush to spread a thin coating of olive oil over the top of the crust.Step 3 Spread pizza sauce on the crust. How much pizza sauce you add is purely a matter of personal preference. If you love a lot of sauce, go ahead and slather it on. If you prefer your pizza on the dry side, spoon a little in the middle and spread it around in a thin layer. “If you want to make a white pizza, add a little extra olive oil and skip the pizza sauce.●You can make a quick pizza sauce using tomato paste, a can of diced tomatoes, and some spices. Simmer the paste and tomatoes (without draining them first) together over low heat. Add salt, oregano and pepper to taste. Continue simmering until the sauce cooks down to the consistency of pizza sauce.Step 4 Add toppings. Layer your favorite toppings over the sauce. Add as many or as few toppings as you want. Put the heavier toppings, like onions, chicken or sausage, on the bottom layer, and add lighter toppings, like spinach leaves or peppers, on the top layer. Continue until your pizza is loaded with the amount of toppings you like.●Other than pepperoni and ham which are pre-cooked, meat toppings should always be cooked before you put them on the pizza. They'll get heated when you bake the pizza, but they won't fully cook. If you’ re using ground beef, sausage, chicken, oranother meat, cook it thoroughly in a pan on the stove or in the oven and drain the grease before you add it to your pizza.●Remember that if you add too many vegetable toppings, your pizza crust may turn out a little soggy. The water from the vegetables moistens the dough. Limit the amount of spinach and other "watery" vegetables you put on your pizza if you’re worried about this happening.Step 5 Add the cheese. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over the toppings. Layer it on thick if you like it that way, or add a thin layer if you’re going for a lighter pizza. Use Cheddar if you like.Step 6 Bake the pizza. Place the pizza in the oven and have it bake for about 20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted. Remove it from the oven and allow it to coo for a few minutes before slicing.Tips●Pre-bake the crust a little if you like it more evenly cooked through and done rather than soggy where it meets the sauce, like foccacia pizza.●If desired you can make cheese pizza without the sauce and cut it into strips instead of slices to make cheese sticks.●If you extend the cheese further out than the tomato sauce and leave little gaps in the watery tomato-sauce layer through which the cheese can bond to the crust, the cheese layer will not slide off en masse so easily.●If the crust and top are burnt before the inside is cooked enough, the temperature is too high. A thicker pizza needs lower temperatures so it cooks long enough to be done inside without burning the outside. You can turn up the heat or even broil the pizza briefly to brown the top, at the end, while eyeing it to avoid burning it.●Try Mascarpone cheese in the tomato sauce.●Instead of tomato sauce, you can use spaghetti sauce.●Before you put your pizza in the oven, spray the pan with a bit of olive oil, for a crisper end-result. It also prevents it from sticking to the pan.●You can also add hamburger meat to make ground beef pizza.●While you are doing the tomato sauce, cut the tomatoes then put them on a pan for two minutes then it will be easier to peel the tomato’s out-sides.●For a more nice crisp top, broil the top of your pizza. Remember, keep an eye on it!Keep it in the broiler for about two minutes. This process will make a nice golden top.Warnings●Always keep an eye on your pizza, so it doesn’t burn.●Avoid putting the temperature too high in the oven, if you don’t it can cause fires.●To avoid burning yourself, use towels or oven mitts when taking your pizza out of the oven.参考答案A A CB AB 1.

Part I Pre-reading
Section C Recitation
Directions: Read the short essay and try to recite it.
“He who opens a school door, closes a prison.”
--- Victor Hugo
The first time we are introduced to formal education is in school. The school years are the grounding years of one’s education. Schools are institutions that lay the foundation of a child’s development. They play a key role in developing children into responsible citizens and good human beings. It’s a school where young talent is recognized and nurtured. On leaving school, we are all set to soar high in life, and enter the real world in pursuit of our dreams.
Education provides us with knowledge about the world. It paves the way for a good career. It helps build character. It leads to enlightenment. It lays the foundation of a stronger nation. Education makes a man complete. Kautilya, an Indian philosopher, royal adviser, and professor of economics and political science very rightly underlined the importance of education, some 2000 years ago. He has highlighted the fact that education enriches people’s understanding of themselves. He has said that education is an investment in human capital, and it can have a great impact on a nation’s growth and development.
