M5 U3 Project 阅读材料中英文对照版Man and natureFor a long time, our environment has been damaged because humanshave been careless. People have harmed nature through agriculture,fishing, hunting and tourism. We further damage the Earth by buildingnew channels in the sea and factories on the land, and by creatingpollution with chemical waste. We will some day destroy the planet welive on if we continue in this way.However, if we focus only on conservation, then people may suffer. Not everything that is best for nature is good for people. Would anyone saythat development should be stopped in favour of nature? From the pointof view of some people, we are only doing what humans have alwaysdone, using nature to meet our own needs. Other people argue that suchthinking may cause a catastrophe, unless we start to look around and understand how a clean environment benefits us all.After decades of destroying nature and using up natural resources, many developed nations are now concerned about saving nature rather than developing or destroying it. However, many poorer nations must focuson meeting the everyday needs of their people. In doing so, they areusing up natural resources at a fast pace. They have not yet seen theeffects of the careless use of the environment like many wealthy nationshave. Often they do not realize that the choices they make are bad forthe environment. Should they be blamed for destroying hundreds ofthousands of acres of rainforest if it means a better income for theirpeople? The developed and developing countries of the world need towork together to make sure that people enjoy healthy and happy lives,without the environment around them suffering.It should not be a question of humans winning and nature losing.Humans can only really win by protecting nature. After all, food has tobe produced in a healthy, natural system, and we all need clean air tobreathe and pure water to drink. It is mankind's responsibility to findanswers that are good for everyone, and everything.GM food: hope or danger?In recent years, there has been great progress in the study of genetics. With this progress doors have been opened up to technologies that never existed before. While many people are excited about these new technologies, these same technologies frighten others. Nowhere is this truer than with genetically modified (GM) food.There are two ways in which a plant or an animal can be genetically modified. First, new material can be inserted into its DNA to give the plant oranimal qualities which it would never have in nature. Second, material can be taken from the DNA of a plant or an animal in order to remove qualities which are not desired.One aim of GM research is to produce food which will make us healthier. So far,this technology has been used to produce plants which are better able to defendthemselves against pests and disease. Supporters of GM food argue that GMplants are healthier and have larger harvests. While there has been research inGM animals such as pigs, no GM meat is being sold at present.Many questions have been raised about GM food. No one really knows whetherit is safe for animals or humans to eat. Scientists admit that more tests should bedone on GM food. Research has been limited to increasing production profits,rather than making sure that GM foods are safe. GM food could therefore bedangerous to eat.There is also a question as to whether GM plants are safe for the environment.Since GM crops are planted outside, they are part of the food chain--insects andother animals eat them or use their products, and these insects and animals willbe eaten by yet other animals. No one knows what effects the GM materialmight have on the food chain.Since no one really knows whether GM food is safe, many countries havehesitated to give permission for the production of GM foods, as they wouldrather be cautious with this new technology.人类与自然长期以来，由于人类的漠不关心，我们的环境遭受了严重破坏。

M9 U1 Project 阅读材料中英文对照版Is Australia really a sporting nation?澳大利亚真是体育之国吗？There is nothing ambiguous about Australians’ love of sport. Their absolute love of it seems compulsory. They talk about sport all the time. They watch it live or on television, and sometimes it seems to be the only topic of conversation. Anywhere Australians get together—in the canteen during lunch, in the pub with a pint of beer, or in someone’s garden over a barbecue grill—the conversation quickly turns to sport. It can be an analysis of how teams are placing in the various sports leagues, or a discussion of the strengths and weaknesses of different players and their teams.澳大利亚人热爱体育，这点毫无疑问。
他们对体育的绝对热爱似乎是必需的。
他们时时刻刻在谈论体育。
他们在现场观看比赛或收看电视转播，有时体育似乎是交谈的惟一话题。
无论澳大利亚人在何地相聚——在餐厅吃午饭、在酒吧喝啤酒或在某人的花园烧烤——他们的谈话都很快地转到体育上。
谈话内容可以是分析球队在各项联赛中的排名，或是讨论不同运动员和他们所在球队的优势和劣势。

M5 U1 Project 阅读材料中英文对照版Teenagers' friendship青少年的友谊观My friend, Robert, has a twin sister named Amanda Though they get along well, there are some things about Amanda and her friends that puzzle Robert我的朋友罗伯特有一个双胞胎妹妹叫阿曼达。
尽管他们相处融洽，但阿曼达和她朋友的一些事还是让罗伯特感到困惑。
He can't understand how girls can talk for so long For example, sometimes when he leaves the apartment to play football, Amanda and her friend, Sharon, are sitting on the sofa, talking When he comes back three and a half hours later, they're still sitting on the sofa, continuing the same conversation on the same topic他无法理解女孩子怎么会聊天那么长时间。
例如，有时他离开公寓去踢足球时，阿曼达和她的朋友沙伦就坐在沙发上聊天。
当他三个半小时后回来时，她们仍然坐在沙发上，继续聊着同样的话题。
One day Robert was so curious that he asked Amanda what they talked about, but she replied, ‘We're best friends We talk about almost everything—film stars, pop songs, recipe, everything!'一天，罗伯特抑制不住好奇，问阿曼达她们聊了什么，她回答说：“我们是最好的朋友。
我们什么都聊——电影明星、流行歌曲、食谱等等，所有的事！”Boys and girls have different attitudes towards friendship男孩和女孩对待友谊有着不同的态度。
Friendships between girls are usually anchored in shared feelings and support, but friendships between boys are based on shared activities or interests女孩之间的友谊通常建立在共同的情感和互相支持之上，而男孩之间的友谊则以共同的活动或兴趣为基础。
A boy is likely to be cautious about sharing his feelings with his close friends A girl's closest friend, however, might be eager to tell her about something that has happened in her life对于与密友们分享感情这件事，一个男孩会更加谨慎。
而一个女孩的密友则可能会迫不及待地向她吐露自己生活中发生过的一些事。
Many studies worldwide show that girls have more friendships than boys全球范围的许多研究表明女孩比男孩享有更多的友谊。
In fact, many adolescent males cannot name a single best friend事实上，许多青春期的男孩说不出一个最好的朋友。
When asked, they usually hesitate before responding, ‘My best friend? I can't think about that I am busy with my homework, and I have so many different friends that it is hard to choose just one best friend'当被问起时，他们在回答前往往会犹豫一下：“最好的朋友？我没有想过这个问题。
我忙于家庭作业。
我有很多朋友，很难说出哪一位是我最好的朋友。
”Females who have been asked can usually answer the question without pausing, ‘A best friend? Of course We have a lot to share with each other We do a lot of thingstogether such as talking and shopping'被问到过这个问题的女孩往往能毫不犹豫地回答：“最好的朋友？当然有。
我们分享的东西很多。
我们经常一起做很多事，比如聊天和逛街。
”We have to realize: boys share activities, while girls share feelings我们必须认识到男孩共享活动，而女孩分享情感。
The qualities that boys and girls consider important in a friend seem to be the same, regardless of the basis of these friendships无论男孩和女孩友谊的基础是什么，他们所看重的朋友身上的品质似乎是一样的。
The important thing to remember is that both of them are friendships We all need friends in our lives所要记住的重要一点是：它们二者均是友谊。
我们在生活中都需要朋友。
What friendship means to me?友谊对我意味着什么?When deciding what is most important in life, some people choose money, while others choose things like security and comfort当确定生活中最重要的是什么时，有些人选择金钱，而别的人则选择诸如安全感和舒适度之类的东西。
However, for me, the most important thing in life is friendship I cannot imagine being without it然而，对我而言，生活中最重要的东西是友谊。
我不能想像没有它。
Friendship means not being alone友谊意味着不孤独。
Once I was travelling by myself through Beijing on the way to my grandparents' house 有一次去我独自一人旅行，途经北京去我祖父母家。
Since my next train left in the evening, I had a day for sightseeing由于我要乘坐的下一趟火车要到晚上才开，我有一天的观光时间。
At first, I didn't mind being alone, but then I saw all of the tourists having their pictures taken together, and I began feeling sad起初，我并不介意自己一个人，但后来看见所有的游客一起拍照，我开始感到难过。
I ended up returning to the train station and spending the rest of the day in the waiting room最终我回到火车站，在候车室里度过了当天余下的时光。
Life is no fun without a companion to share it with如果没有同伴分享，生活就索然无味。
Friendship means having someone I can rely on友谊意味着有人可以依靠。
Last year, I forgot my schoolbag on a trolleybus, and I lost all of my notes for the final exam You can imagine how I panicked去年，我把书包忘在了无轨电车上，丢了所有的期末考试的笔记。
你可以想像我有多慌乱。
Luckily for me, my best friend Jenny let me copy her notes, and I used them in myrevision Thanks to her help, I was able to pass the exam幸运的是，我最好的朋友珍妮让我复印了她的笔记，我复习时用了它们。
多亏她的帮助，我才得以通过考试。
Friendship means being committed to others The best way to have a friend is to be a friend友谊意味着忠诚于他人。
拥有朋友的最佳途径就是做一个朋友。
Because I am a friend, I have had to learn patience and mercy因为我是一个朋友，我就要学会有耐心和宽容。
Once I had a quarrel with Jenny, and she made some cruel comments about me有一次我与珍妮吵架，她说了一些有关我的残酷无情的闲话。
Even though I was hurt, I forgave her and she later made an apology尽管我的感情受到了伤害，我还是原谅了她。
后来她向我道歉。
Through this incident, both of us have become better people However, if I had ended our friendship, we would have both learnt nothing通过这一事件，我们俩都变成了更好的人。
