3 Neither of my parents had come from homes that could afford to buy many books, but though it must have been something of a strain on hissalary, as the youngest officer in a young insurance company, my father wasall the whilecarefully selecting and ordering away for what he and Mother thought we children should grow up with.

问题在于,动物在把植物转化为可食用的肉类这方面的效率很低。举例来说,美国政府估测,生产1公斤猪肉需要耗费8.4公斤的谷物。
我们把这么多资源耗费在动物身上,又得到什么回报呢?粪肥——据官方资料,仅加拿大,就以每秒10,000多公斤的速度排出。加拿大环境部称,牛每产1公斤可食牛肉需排出40公斤粪便。安大略省农业部估测,一家大型禽蛋工厂每星期可产出50-100吨禽粪。
美国饮食学协会指出,“科学资料表明,素食与降低多种慢性变性疾病的患病危险肯定有关系。”
去年秋天,在检验了4500个饮食与癌症的研究报告之后,世界癌症研究基金会直截了当地指出:“我们一向利用不合适的养料来维持人类生理引擎的运转。”据威尔夫大学营养科学教授布鲁斯·霍拉勃称,这一“不合适的养料”致使加拿大每年用于治疗变性疾病的费用高达4000亿(加)元。
情况变得甚至更可怕。家畜在宰杀前的运输途中,法律允许在36-72小时内不给进食、进水,不让休息。即使在炎夏或零度以下的严冬,它们连乘温控卡车的“奢侈”也不让享受。

Although my grandmother was illiterate, she had a good stock of myths and legends. When I was young I gave her no peace, constantly asking her to tell me stories. After she had finished her housework, she would lift me onto her lap and tell stories, all the while rocking me in rhythm. Having noticed my interest in stories, my parents lost no time in initiating me into reading. They bought many storybooks with illustrations, and whenever free, they would read these stories to me over and over again. By and by I had a vocabulary large enough to read on my own.

R ec o rde r C o l e W i n G a oUnit Four UFOsPart A Pre-listening Task (I)Listen to the facts and opinions about UFOs twice and fill in the blanks with the words you hear from the recording. Pay attention to the sentence structures that you might find useful in your discussions. Facts and OpinionsNotedsaucer n.碟子scripture n. 经文chariot n. 战车Stonehenge 英国Salisbury 平原上的史前巨石柱Atlantis 传说沉没于大西洋中的帝国abduct v. 绑架extraterrestrial a. 地球外的1. UFOs stand for Unidentified Flying Objects. Some people also call them flying saucers, because their shapes look like saucers.2. In its broader sense, the UFO includes any object or light, reportedly sighted in the sky, that cannot be immediately explained by the observer.3. I remember as a child, I would save every penny my mother gave me to buy the latest UFO magazines from the grocery store.4. We can not deny the existence of the UFO phenomenon simply because we have notseen it or can not explain it.5. Science has its limitations and many mysteries throughout the world have remained unsolved.6. Sightings of unusual aerial phenomena date back to ancient times.7. The early cave paintings and ancient scriptures seem to indicate that we may have had visitors from other worlds or planets in the past.8. In fact, ancient scriptures from many different cultures would give us the impression that we've had visitors from outer space.9. How do you explain ancient tales of chariots from the sky? And what are flying ships appearing in science fiction novels before the first plane was ever thought about?10. Even the Bible has been suggested as possible evidence of alien contact, for its numerous accounts of objects in the sky, and other strange events.11. What secrets lie with ancient Egypt, Stonehenge, or possibly even Atlantis? Have there indeed been more advanced civilizations of man that have somehow been lost?12. Some UFO enthusiasts even claim to have been abducted and taken aboard UFOs.R ec o rde r C o l e W i n G a o But so far, no one has produced scientifically acceptable proof of these claims.13. Some people believe that UFOs are extraterrestrial spacecraft, even though no scientifically valid evidence supports that belief. 14. Scientists speculate that intelligent life may well exist elsewhere in the universe.15. In addition to many reports and sightings of UFOs, observers have provided photographs or even videos.16. UFOs became widely discussed only after the first widely publicized U.S. sighting in 1947. Many thousands of such observations have since been reported worldwide.17. From 1947 to 1969 the U.S. Air Force investigated UFOs as a possible threat tonational security.18. A total of 12,618 reports were received, of which 701 or 5.6 percent were listed asunexplained.19. Since 1969 no agency of the U.S. government has had any active program of UFO investigation.20. In 1997 the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) admitted that the U.S. military had deceived the American public in an effort to hide information about high-altitude spy planes.21. At least 90 percent of UFO sightings can be identified as conventional objects, although time-consuming investigations are often necessary for such identification. 22. The objects most often mistaken for UFOs are bright planets and stars, aircraft, birds, balloons, kites, aerial flares, peculiar clouds, meteors, and satellites.Part A Pre-listening Task (II)Pair/ Group Work - Additional question for discussion1. It is reported that UFOs are alien spaceships from outer space. What do youthink?2. Do you believe in the existence of UFOs? Why or why not?3. Can science explain the UFO phenomenon? Give reasons.Sample1. It is reported that UFOs are alien spaceships from outer space. What do youthink?Since man first started looking up into the skies he saw things he couldn't explain. So the term "Unidentified Flying Object" has come into being and has become a synonym to most people for "Alien Spaceship." Usually the explanation is less extraordinary than a flying saucer manned by visitors from other worlds. Often a weather balloon or natural phenomenon is the cause. However, there are cases on record where no good common explanation was ever found. I think the day would come when this phenomenon will be explained in a scientific and convincing way.2. Do you believe in the existence of UFOs? Why or why not?Since UFOs can not be fully explained by scientists, it is indeed not fair for us common people to deny or believe in the existence of UFOs. Personally I don't believe the storyR ec o rde r C o l e W i n G a o that aliens have visited earth or they have been making strange formed shapes in crop fields. I ’ve also heard a lot of strange sightings of UFOs and alien spaceships being shot out of the sky. Recently some Mexican air pilots were reported to have spotted a fleet of spacecraft and they even took photos of them. But unfortunately , these photos are not clear enough to show that they are really flying saucers from outer space3. Can science explain the UFO phenomenon? Give reasons.So far as I know , science has not reached that stage where UFOs can be explained with satisfactory and convincing theory and with substantial evidence. Scientists around the world and even the U.S. Air Force spent considerable amount of time and money investigating the phenomenon, but so far they haven't produced any convincing reports that can explain or support the existence of UFOs. Surely there are lots of UFO photos and sightings, but most of them are either blurry or they are forged by some mischievous persons. However, I do believe that some day we will be able to explain this phenomenon just as we have explained the workings of cloning technology.Part BListening Task(A)NotesFranksville (地名)Wisconsin 威斯康星州emanate v. 散发,发出accelerate v. 加速frantic a. 狂乱的,疯狂的illuminate v. 照明,照亮fearsome a. 可怕的hover v. 盘旋diameter n. 直径in the wake of ... 紧跟在... ...的后面enigma n. 谜,不可思议的东西eerie a. 怪异的, 怪诞的aluminum n. 铝cone n. 锥形物protrude v. 突出underside n. 下面,底面ponder v. 沉思,考虑driveway n. 私人车道Referencel. Background InformationUFOs have been around a long time. One of the earliest accounts of a flyingR ec o rde r C o l e W i n G a o saucer sighting was recorded over 3,400 years ago in the annals of the Egyptian Pharaoh Thutmose III. In the papyrus documents is a description of a group of fiery circles that were seen in the sky over the pharaoh's army. If aliens have been visiting the earth for thousands of years, maybe at some point they had given us a helping hand.The modem age of UFO culture began on June 24, 1947 when pilot Kenneth Arnold witnessed a formation of silver disks skipping through the air over Mount Rainier. His report was widely circulated by the print and radio media, sparking interest in UFOs around the world. Just two weeks later, another event took place in New Mexico. That was the famous Roswell incident, in which a flying saucer supposedly crashed in Roswell, New Mexico. ClA immediately dispatched a team to investigate the incident and kept it a secret ever since. Some witnesses said the U.S. government not only recovered debris from the crashed saucer but also four or five alien bodies. In September 1994, the U.S. Air Force released a new report on that Roswell incident that concluded that the debris found in New Mexico in 1947 probably came from a once top-secret balloon operation, Project Mogul, designed to monitor the atmosphere for evidence of Soviet nuclear tests. Now the UFO phenomenon may be at least a half century old, if not longer, and UFO sightings become more frequent In 1990, the International UFO Congress was founded and is held annually worldwide. At each conference, serious UFO researchers, observers and enthusiasts convene to discuss the UFO phenomenon. For the details of the Congress, please refer to the listening passage in Part D -- Home Listening (2).2. It was one a.m. one cold fal 1 night...It was one a.m. on a cold night in autumn...3. My heart skipped a beat.I was startled at the sight, which made my pulse become abnormal.4. In the wake of the hovering enigma, ...Following the path of the mysterious hovering UFO, ...5. ... except for two cones that protruded from the top and bottom of the craft's center.Two cones which were not made of aluminum stuck out from the craft's center, one on the top and the other the bottom.A UFO in My Yard (Part One)It was one a.m. one cold fall night in 1968. I was 21 then, and was coming home from a date. I had just dropped off my girlfriend and was heading back to Franksville, a rural town in Wisconsin. As I turned left to go east on Seven Mile Road, I saw extremely bright lights streaming out from the distance.My heart skipped a beat(心停止跳动). What was producing these strange lights visible from a half mile away? I thought it was a house on fire. The lightsR ec o rde r C o l e W i n G a o seemed to emanate(散发) from the area where my house was located. My parents and two brothers were probably in bed by now. As I accelerated and turned onto the town street, frantic(疯狂的) thoughts ran through my mind. Was the house burning down? Was my family trapped(陷入) inside?As I raced toward my house, I noticed that the yards of my house and my neighbors' were illuminated(照明,照亮) as if it were day. Then I saw the source of the strange light. It wasn't a house fire, as I had feared. It was a possibility I would have never anticipated(预期), one that was perhaps even more fearsome than the house fire I had imagined.Hovering motionless(一动 th 不动,静止) only 50 feet above the rooftops was a strange object. Round and silvery, it was approximately 300-400 feet in diameter. In the wake of the hovering(盘旋) enigma(不可思议的东西), there was an eerie silence. I stuck my head out the driver's side window to get a closer look at what I guessed was some kind of aircraft.It looked made of aluminum(铝), except for two cones(锥形物) that protruded(突出) from the top and bottom of the craft's center. Both cones seemed to be made of a glass-like material. The top cone was white, while the bottom cone glowed yellow. White lights circled the yellow cone on the underside of the craft. Each light was about 3-4 feet in diameter.It didn't look like any conventional(惯例的) aircraft I had ever seen. It looked like a flying saucer from a movie. Was this what an alien spaceship truly looked like?I pondered(沉思,考虑) what to do. If I pulled into the driveway I would be putting myself directly beneath(在 ... 之下) the craft. I considered turning the car around and speeding away.Questions I.:Listen to the story and decide whether the follwoign statement are true or false. Write “T ” for true, and “F ” for falseStatements:(F) 1. The narrator saw a strange bright light in the distance when he and his girlfriend were in the car.(T) 2. At first the narrator thought that the bright lights were from a house on fire, possibly his own house.(F) 3. The strange dazzling lights came from a round and silvery dish-like object, which was about three to four feet in diameter.(T) 4. The narrator felt that danger threatened because the object was not like any conventional aircraft he had ever seen.(T) 5. The narrator was at a loss at the sight of the fearsome object and considered running away from the scene.(F) 6. The incident showed that though the narrator was a young man, he displayed a remarkable calmness in the presence of danger.R ec o rde r C o l e W i n G a oQuestions II:Listen to the story again and complete the following sentences with the information you have obtained.1. My heart skipped a beat. What was producing these strange lights visiblefrom a half mile away?2. As I raced toward my house, I noticed that the yards of my house and my neighbors' were illuminated as if it were day.3. Hovering motionless only 50 feet above the rooftops was a strange object. Round and silvery, it was approximately 300-400 feet in diameter. In the wake of the hovering(盘旋) enigma(不可思议的东西), there was an eeriesilence. I stuck my head out the driver's side window to get a closer look at what I guessed was some kind of aircraft.4. It looked made of aluminum, except for two cones that protruded from the top and bottom of the craft's center.5. Both cones seemed to be made of a glass-like material. The top cone was white, while the bottom cone glowed yellow.(B)Notesominously ad. 恶兆地,不吉利地alien creature 外星人swallow hard 抑制强烈的感情cautiously ad.谨慎地undisturbed a. 没受到干扰的groggy a. 昏昏沉沉的incredulous a. 怀疑的,不轻信的hypnotic a. 催眠的nagging a. 令人烦恼不己的Reference1.

As I slowly reached for the car door handle, I comforted myself by thinking, "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."How often does a strange spacecraft come to call?

Reading everything that stood before me was how I came upon a worn old book that had belonged to my father as a child.5、我的父母真的是给我再多的书都嫌不够。

Indeed, my parents could not give me books enough.Unit 21、如果有一件事,既能增进健康、减少患上食物引起的疾病的危险。

又有助于保护环境、保护千万动物安全生存,你做不做?If there was a single act that would improve your health, cut your risk of food-borne illnesses, and help preserve the environment and the welfare of millions of animals, would you do it?2、推动人们转向素食的是医学研究提出的关于如何增进健康的建议。

Fuelling the shift toward vegetarianism have been the health recommendations of medical research.3、我们一向利用不合适的燃料来维持人类生理引擎的运转。

We’ve been running the human biological en gine on the wrong fuel.4、根据信息自由法案获得的有关文件记载,这些集团迫使加拿大最新食品指南在1993年公布前做出修改。

According to documents retrieved through the Freedom of Information Act, these groups forced changes to Canada’s latest food guide before it was released in 1993.5、健康和食品安全是选择素食生活方式令人信服的理由,但此外还有更为重大的因素要考虑。

While health and food safety are compelling reasons for choosing a vegetarian lifestyle, there are also larger issues to consider.6、我见到“固执”的牛被打、尖叫着的猪在屠宰室被人用电卡钳追逐。

7、由于传送线停转一分钟就要损失好几百元,家畜的利益就变得不如利润重要。

Because it can cost hundreds of dollars per minute to stop the conveyor line, animal welfare comes second to profit.8、猪崽喷着鼻息、公鸡在粮仓的空场上昂首行走的日子已经一去不复返。

Gone are the days when piglets snorted and roosters strutted their way about the barnyard.Unit 31、所有我交谈过的人都对什么事情可以说谎——什么事情绝对不可以说谎——持有强烈的、常常不容别人分说的个人意见。

Everyone I’ve talked to has a quite intense and personal but often rather intolerant point of view about what we can — and can never never — tell lies about.2、他们说,如果你要做到十二分正直、十二分无畏,不由自主地用你的诚实使他们陷入不必要的窘境或痛苦之中,这只能说你是傲慢?It’s arrogant, they say, to insist on being so incorruptible and so brave that you cause other people unnecessary embarrassment or pain by compulsively assailing them with your honesty.3、“我不会那一套,”他说,“我生来就不会那一套。

”“I can’t play that game,” he says; “I’m simply not made that way.”4、讲到对人家说几句好听的话并不失去什么,他的回答是:“不对,当然有损失——那会损害你的诚信度。

”And his answer to the argument that saying nice things to someone doesn’t cost anything is, “Y es, it does —it destroys your credibility.”5、因此,如果你不问他,他不会对你刚买来的画发表意见,但如果你不想听老实话,你就不去问他的真实想法。

当我们这些说谎者轻声称赞着“多美啊”的时候,他的沉默往往是极能说明问题的。

Now, he won’t, unsolicited, offer his views on the painting you just bought, but you don’t ask his frank opinion unless you want frank, and his silence at those moments when the rest of us liars are muttering, “Isn’t it lovely?” is, for the most part, eloquent enough.6、每当我为了不让别人讨厌自己、看轻自己、或冲着自己嚷嚷而说谎时,我总觉得自己有点像个懦夫,觉得自己是在逃避责任,觉得……愧疚。

I used to have a romantic idea that part of intimacy was confessing every dumb thing that you did to your husband.9、他们说谎,因为他们认为,人的某些价值观念压倒了说谎这一错误行为本身。

They lie because they feel there are certain human values that supersede the wrong of having lied.10、而且,我们会不知不觉地为了圆先前说的谎言而说谎。

And furthermore, we may find ourselves lying in order to back up the lies that are backing up the lie we initially told.11、然而,对于我们这种善于说谎的人来说,对于我们这种说谎而又一般不露馅的人来说,说谎还是不说谎会成为一个严肃的道德难题。

For those of us, however, who are good at telling lies, for those of us who lie and don’t get caught, the question of whether or not to lie can be a hard and serious moral problem.Unit 41、他略略询问了我来此的目的、我大致的经历、以后准备如何运用所学知识,最后问我是否希望修习某一特别学科。
