普通高中课程标准实验教科书《英语》电子课本Book 3Unit 1 Festivals around the worldB3U1P1-3FESTIVALS AND CELEBRATIONSAncient FestivalsFestivals and celebrations of all kinds are held everywhere. The most ancient festivals would celebrate the end of the cold weather, planting in spring and harvest in autumn. Other celebrations were held when hunters could catch animals. They would starve if food was difficult to find, so they celebrated when they had food. They lit fires and made music because they thought these festivals would bring a year of plenty.Festivals of the DeadSome festivals are held to honour the dead, or satisfy and please the ancestors, who could return either to help or to do harm. In Japan the festival is called Obon, when people should go to clean the graves and light incense in memory of their ancestors. They light lamps and play music because they think that this will lead the ancestors back to earth. In Mexico they have the Day of the Dead in early November. On this important feast day, people might eat food in shape of skulls, and cakes with “bones”on them. They offer food, flowers and gifts to the dead. The festival of Halloween had its origin as an event in memory of the dead. It is now a children’s festival, when they can go to their neighbours’homes and ask for sweets. They dress up and try to frighten people. If they are not given anything, the children might play a trick.Festivals to Honour PeopleFestivals can be held as an honour to famous people or to the gods. One of these is the Dragon Boat Festival in China, which honours the famous ancient poet, Qu Yuan. Another is Columbus Day in the USA, in memory of the arrival of Christopher Columbus in America. In India there is a national festival on October 2 to honour Mahatma Gandhi, the leader who helped gain India’s independence from Britain.Harvest FestivalsHarvest and Thanksgiving festivals can be very happy events. People are grateful because their food is gathered for the winter ,and because a season of agricultural work is over. In European countries it is the custom to decorate churches and town halls with flowers and fruit, and people get together to have meals. Some people might win awards for their animals, flowers, fruits and vegetables, like the biggest watermelon or the most handsome rooster. In China and Japan there are mid-autumn festivals, when people admire the moon and give gift of mooncakes.Spring FestivalsThe most energetic and important festivals are the ones that look forward to the end of winter and to the coming of spring. At the Spring Festival in China, people eat dumplings, fish and meat, and may give children lucky money in the red paper. There are dragon dances and carnivals, and families celebrate the lunar New Year together. In some Western countries there are very exciting carnivals, which take place forty days before Easter, usually in February. They might include parades, dancing in the streets day and night, loud music and colourful clothing of all kinds. Easter is an important religious and social festival in Christian countries. It celebrates the return of Jesus for Christians and it also celebrates the coming of spring. In Japan, the Cherry Blossom Festival happens a little later. The country is covered with cherry tree flowers so that it looks as though it might be covered with pink snow.People love to get together to eat, drink and have fun with each others. Festivals let us enjoy life, be proud of our customs and forget our daily life for a little while.B3U1P4We think it has always been the custom for people to have festivals. They are a time to enjoy each other’s company and have fun with our friends. We think that long ago people looked forward to the celebrations. Our ancestors would sit round a fire and cook plenty of meat to eat. Then they would be satisfied with their festival.B3U1P7A SAD LOVE STORYLi Fang was heart-broken. It was Valentine’s Day and Hu Jin had said she would meet him at the coffee shop after work. But she didn’t turn up. She could be with her friends right now laughing at him. She said she would be there at seven o’clock, and he thought she would keep her word. He had looked forward to meeting her all day, and now he was alone with his roses and chocolates, like a fool. Well, he was not going to hold his breath for her apologise. He would drown his sadness in coffee. It was obvious that the manager of the coffee shop was waiting for Li Fang to leave -he wiped the tables, then sat down and turned on the TV-just what Li Fang needed!A sad Chinese story about lost love.The seventh daughter of the Goddess of Heaven visited the earth. Her name was Zhinu, the weaving girl, and she was the most lovely of the daughters. While she was on earth she met the herd boy Niulang and they fell in love. (“Just like me and Hu Jin, ”thought Li Fang.) They got married secretly, and they were very happy. (“We could be like that, ” thought Li Fang.) When the Goddess of Heaven knew that herdaughter was married to a human, she became very angry and made the weaving girl return to Heaven. Niulang tried to follow her, but the river of stars, the Milky Way, stopped him. Finding that Zhinu was heart-broken, her mother finally decided to let the couple cross the Milky Way to meet once a year. This happens when the stars Vega and Altair meet in the Heaven. Magpies make a bridge of their wings so the couple can cross the river to meet on the seventh lunar month. people in China hope that the weather will be fine on that day, because if it is raining, it means that Zhinu is weeping and the couple won’t be able to meet.The announcer said, “this is the story of Qiqiaojie. When foreigners hear about the story, they call it a Chinese Valentine’s story. It’s a fine day today, so I hope you can all meet the one you love.’’As Li Fang set off for home, he thought, “I guess Hu Jin doesn’t love me. I’ll just throw these flowers and chocolates away. I don’t want them to remind me of her.’’ So he did.As he sadly passed the tea shop on the corner on his way home, he heard a voice calling him. There was Hu Jin waving at him and calling, “Why are you so late I’ve been waiting for you for a long time! And I have a gift for you!”What would he do He had thrown away her Valentine gifts! She would never forgive him. This would not be a happy Valentine’s Day!B3U1P44&45Winter carnival in QuebecWe are sitting in a café in old Quebec, drinking hot coffee to try to warm up. The temperature is 32 degrees below freezing. The windows are covered with steam from the heat inside. Outside, the snow covers the streets and is piled up along the sidewalks and in parking lots. The music and lights of the carnival continue, but we have been watching the parades, riding in horse carriages and listening to themusic all day. Our feet are freezing and our noses are red.Quebec carnival is the biggest winter festival in the world – every year, hundreds of thousands of people come to Quebec to take part in a week of activities. If you come, you must be prepared to keep moving, as it is too cold to stand and watch for long.Early in the morning, you can watch the snowboarding competitions on the hill overlooking the river. The competitions speed down the track and through the air though they could fly.If you are brave enough, you can try the canoe race. Five or six men paddle in each canoe across the great St Lawrence River, which is partly frozen. Of course, the river is full of big pieces of ice, and if you were to fall in, you would freeze in less than two minutes.One of the favourite events is the dog-sled race, in which teams of about 6 Husky dogs pull long sleds at great speeds along a snowy track. One person runs behind the sled, shouting to the dogs to encourage them. The sound of the dogs barking, the calls of the drivers and the shouts of the crowd make an exciting Northern experience. The dogs are beautiful strong animals, with long, thick fur. Many of them have blue eyes.After admiring the ice sculptures everywhere in the city, much like those in Harbin in China, you can have a cup of tae or coffee in an igloo. It is amazing how warm these ice houses can be!Late in the evening, you can go to the snow palace, where Bonhomme the snowman is king, and join the crowd. You can dance outside to the music of a band, who are all dressed in heavy clothes – even some of their instruments are dressed up for winter.Finally we sit down in our café to warm up and to plan tomorrow –perhaps we’ll join the snowmobile races –or perhaps we’ll just sleep in.Book 3 Unit 2 Healthy eatingB3U2P10COME AND EAT HERE (1)Wang Peiwei sat in his empty restaurant feeling very frustrated. It had been a very strange morning. Usually he got up early and prepared his menu of mutton kebabs, roast pork and fried rice. Then by lunchtime they would all be sold. His restaurant ought to be full of people. But not today! Why was it so What could have happened He thought of his mutton kebabs and fatty pork cooked in the hottest, finest oil. His fried rice was hot but did not taste of fat. His cola was sugary and cold and his ice cream was made of eggs, milk, cream and fruit. “Nothing could have been better,”he thought. Suddenly he saw his friend Li Maochang hurrying by. “Hello, Maochang,”he called, “Your usual”But Maochang seemed not to hear. What was the matter Something terrible must have happened if Maochang was not coming to eat with him as he always did.Pengwei followed Li Maochang into a newly-opened small restaurant at the end of the street. There was a sign in the window.Tired of all that fat Want to be thinnerCome inside to Yong Hui’s slimming restaur ant.Only slimming foods served here.Make yourself thin again.Curiosity drove Wang Pengwei inside. It was full of people. A very thin lady came forward. “Welcome!”she said, “My name is Yong will take all that fat off you in two weeks if you eat here ev ery day.” Then she gave a menu to Wang Peiwei. There were only two kinds of food and one drink on it: raw vegetables, fruit and water. Wang Peiwei was amazed at this and especially at the prices. It cost more than a good meal in his own restaurant. He could not believe his eyes! He threw awaythe menu and hurried outside. On his way home he thought about his own menu. Did it make people fat He wondered if he should go to the library to find out. He couldn’t have Yong Hui getting away with telling people lies! He had better do some research!After reading, he realised what was wrong with Yong Hui’s restaurant. It was not giving its customers energy-giving food! After eating in her restaurant people would become tired very quickly. Perhaps this was a way to win his customers back! Peng Wei wrote his own sign. It said:Want to feel fitCome and eat here!Our food gives you energy all day!The competition between the two restaurants was on!B3U2P12Daisy wished to be ___so that she could wear all the latest, cool clothes designed for the young. She decided to do some ___into what foods should be eaten to become thinner. She learned that one of the ___of not eating enough was to become very tired quickly. When she went to the doctor, he told her she could be thinner as well as healthy if she ate more vegetables like beans,___ and ___.So she did. She felt very fit when she started eating more ___ foods as well as her usual energy –giving foods. She even began to enjoy eating all the vegetables___ rather than cooked. She soon looked like a model!B3U2P14&P15COME AND EAT HERE (2)The next day Wang Pengwei’s restaurant was nearly full and he felt happier. Perhaps he would be able to earn his living after all and not have to close his restaurant. He did not look forward to being in debt because his restaurant was no longer popular.He smiled .But the smile left his face when he saw Yong Hui walking in. She did not look happy but glared at him as she moved round the customers. “May I ask what you were doing in my restaurant yesterday I thought you were a new customer and now I find you came only to spy on me and my menu,” she shouted. “Please excuse me,” he calmly explained,“I wanted to know where all my customers had gone yesterday.I followed one of them and found them in your restaurant. I don’t want to upset you but I found your menu so limited that I stopped worrying and started advertising the benefits of my food. Why don’t you sit down and try a meal”Yong Hui agreed to stay and soon they were both enjoying the dumplings, fatty pork and cola.When they were served the ice cream Yong Hui began to look ill. “I feel sick with all this fat and heavy food,”she said,“I miss my vegetables and fruit.”Wang Pengwei was just enjoying a second plate of dumplings so he sighed.“yes,”he added,“and I would miss my dumplings and fatty pork. But don’t you tired quickly”“Well, now you mention it. I do have to rest a lot, ”admitted Yong Hui. “But don’t you think it would be better if you were a bit thinner” she asked Wang Pengwei. “I’m sure you would feel much healthier.” They began chatting about menus and balanced diets. “My research has shown me that neither your restaurant nor mine offers a balanced diet,”explained Pengwei,“I don’t offer enough fibre and you don’t offer enou gh body–building or energy –giving foods. Perhaps we ought to combine our menus and provide a balanced menu with foods full of energy and fibre. ”So that is what they did ,They served raw vegetables with the hamburgers and boiled the potatoes rather than fried them .Then they served fresh fruit with ice cream. In this way they cut down the fat and increased the fibre in the meal. Their balanced menus became such a success that before long Wang Pengwei became slimmer and Yong Hui heavier. After some time the found that their business cooperation had turned into a personal one .Finally they got marriedand lived happily ever after!B3U2P52-53THE TOWN HAS TO DECIDE(At the meeting that evening there are two speakers: one for and one against building a McDonald’s restaurant.)FOR BUILDING A MCDONALD’SI was excited when I heard that our community(社区) was to have its own McDonald’s restaurant. I thought about all those young people who would not have to go to the next town to buy their favourite burgers and chips. McDonald’s cares about healthy eating too and works with scientists to provide food that is of high quality,safe and healthy. It is also cheap .They often provide salads as well as burgers and chips. You can also choose between cola and milk shakes(奶昔). Of course it also means more work for our area that needs jobs badly. McDonald’s say they are interested in doing what is right for the community and being a good neighbour. So I think they will be concerned about providing parking for the cars in our main street. Many of our young people will be only too happy to work for it. They make a promise to the people that work for them. They say,“We value you, your growing skills and your help to the company.”I can see nothing but good if this company comes to build its restaurant in our town.AGAINST BUILDING A MCDONALD’SI am very worried about McDonald’s building a restaurant in our hometown. We area small community and we enjoy our local dishes. I am not sure if McDonald’s food is as healthy as they say in their advertisements. When scientists look at it carefully they find high levels of fat, sugar and salt. This is very worrying. Too many young people are getting fat through eating too much fatty food. McDonald’s is not giving young people a good idea of what a healthy diet should be. Local Chinesefood ,on the other hand, is full of fresh vegetables and fresh meat and fish. The food at a McDonald’s restaurant is always the same so I wonder if it is made or brought in from elsewhere. Although it is freshly cooked ,it must be less healthy than our own locally grown and cooked Chinese food.I also worry about all those cars bringing people to buy food in McDonald’s. First, there would be petrol fumes(气体),which would make our clean air dirty. Second, there’s the problem of all those cars that try to park and prevent other cars from moving quickly through our town. Third, what will happen to all the food containers if people decide to eat on the side of the road just out of town Will they just throw them on the groundI’m sure many young people would be happy to work for McDonald’s but will they be treated fairly(公平地)In American, McDonald’s does not allow Unions to operate in its restaurants and these are people who speak up for the workers. If ,as they say, the workers are happy with them why should they fear some workers joining a UnionSo when I consider the food, the cars and the jobs, I think we should not allow McDonald’s to build their restaurant in our town.Book 3 Unit 3 The Million Pound Bank-noteB3U3P17-18ACT ONENote: Scenes 1 and 2 are provided in the Teacher’s Book.Scene 3NARRATOR Now ladies and gentlemen , you’re about to hear the most incredible tale. It is the summer of 1903, and Henry Adams, an American business, has had some very bad luck. He is lost in London. He has no money and does not know what he shoulddo. Walking down the street, he hears someone calling him.RODERICK Young man, would you step inside a moment, pleaseHENRY Who Me, sirRODERICK Yes, you.OLIVER Through the front door on your left.HENRY (a servant opens the door for him) Thanks.SERVANT Good morning, sir, would you please come in Permit meto lead the way ,sir.

I’m hoping to find work. As a matter of fact, I landed in Britian by accident.OLIVER How is that possibleHENRY Well, you see, back home I had my own boat. About a month ago I was sailing out of the bay-(his eyes stare at what is left of the brother’s dinner on the table) RODERICK Well, go on.HENRY Oh, yes. Well, towards nightfall I found myself carried out to sea by a strong wind. I did not know whether I could survive until morning. The next morningI’d just about given myself up for lost when I was spotted by a ship.OLIVER And it was the ship that bought you to England.HENRY I earned my passage by working as an unpaid hand, which accounts for my appearance. (the brothers smile at each other)RODERICK Well, you mustn’t worry about that. It’s an advantage.HE NRY I’m afraid I don’t quite follow you, sir.RODERICK Tell us, Mr Adams, what sort of work did you do in AmericaHENRY I worked for a mining company. Could you offer me some kind of work here RODERICK Patience, Mr Adams. If you don’t mind, may I ask you how much money you haveHENRY Well, to be honest, I have none.OLIVER (happily) What luck! Brother, what luck!(claps his hands together) HENRY Well, it may seem lucky to you but not to me. If this is your idea of some kind of joke, I don’t think it’s very funny. (Henry stands up to leave)Now, if you’ll excuse me, I think I’ll be on my way.RODERICK Please don’t go, Mr mustn’t think we don’t care about you. Oliver, give him the letter.OLIVER Yes, the letter.(gets it from a desk and gives it to Henry like a gift) The letter.HENRY (taking it carefully) For meRODERICK For you.

James, show Mr Adams out.OLIVER Good luck, Mr Adams.HENRY Well, why don’t you explain what this is all aboutRODERICK You’ll soon know. In exactly an hour and a half.SERVANT This way, sir.RODERICK Mr Adams, not until 2 o’clock. PromiseHENRY Promise. Good-bye.B3U3p20One day my uncle told me a about a man who made a that he would beable to walk to the foot of a mountain by .The mountain was over 100 kilometresaway from his home so people were happy to take the bet because they thought it was that anybody could walk so far in one day. But they did not realise that the manhad a plan ready. He got histo drive a large truck which would meet him on the road as if . The truck wouldgive the man a ride and he would continue to pretend to walk as the truck moved along.In this way the man made his at the foot of the mountain before nightfall andhe won his bet. He said he had walked all the way though not always on the road!B3U3P21&22Reading and actingAct one, Scene 4(Outside a restaurant Henry looks at the envelope with the letter and decides togo in. He sits down at a table next to the front windows.)OWNER (seeing Henry’s poor appearance)That’s one’s reserved.

(he opens the letter and holds a million pound bank-note in his hands. Henryis surprised but the owner and the waiter are shocked, and nervous)I’m very sorry. But … I ... I … I don’t have anything smaller. OWNER (still shocked and nervous) Well, er- er-just one moment. Maggie, look!(the hostess screams, the other customs look at her and she put a handto her mouth).HOSTESS oh, dear, I don’t know. I simply don’t know. Ask Mr. Clemens. (the owner goes to a gentleman sitting near the window)OWNER Mr. Clemens, Mr. Clemens!

Any way, it can’t be fake. OWNER Why notCLEMENS People will give too much attention to a bank-note of this amount. No thief would want that to happen.HOSTESS (joining them) But look at the owner, Mr. Clemens. He’s in rags. CLEMENS Hmm, yes. I see.

(the owner, hostess and waiter all bow together as Henry leaves)B3U3P23ABOUT MARK TWAINMark Twain was born in Florida and spent his boyhood in Hannibal,Missouri,along the Mississippi River. Three of his most famous books describe people on this great river. They are The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and Life on the Mississippi. Indeed, this author loved the river so much that even his pen name is about the river. “Twain” is an old word for “two.” So, to “mark twain,” is to say that the water is two fathoms deep. A fathom is equal to six feet or metres. Twain left school at school at the age of twelve to look for work. Over the next two decades he was a printer, a riverboat pilot, a soldier, a good miner, a businessman and a newspaper reporter. His first successful story was about a jumping frog contest. His writing became famous for its description of common people and the way they talked, but especially for his humour. He became rich from the many novels, short stories and travel journals he wrote and was very popular at public readings. Yale and Oxford Universities honoured him for his writing. However, the last years of his life were filled with sad events, loneliness and the loss of much money. His writing lost most of its humour and became sad like him. Yet he is still one of the most popular writers in the world today.B3U3P59—60ACT TWOScene 4NARRATOR At the end of month, Henry was very rich and didn’t fear jail. Dressed in the finest clothes, he drove by the brothers’ hou se in Portland Place and, seeing they were back, went to get Portia at her friend’s home.HENRY My dear, the way you look today, it would be a crime not to ask for a good salary for the job they’ll give to me.PORTIA Oh , please remember that if we ask for too much we may get no salary at all; and then what’ll happen to us, with no way in the world to earn a living (at the brothers’ home , the servant lets them in. The two brother are seated ,waiting )HENRY Good morning, gentlemen. (Roderick seems very surprised to see Portia ) Portia ,these are the men who helped me .PORTIA So very nice to meet you, kind sirs .

必修4 Unit 1 A STUDENT OF AFRICAN WILDLIFEIt is 5:45 am and the sun is just rising over Gombe National Park in East Afri ca. Following Jane's way of studying chimps, our group are all going to visit them in the forest. Jane has studied these families of chimps for many years and helped people understand how much they behave like humans. Watching a family of chi mps wake up is our first activity of the day. This means going back to the place where we left the family sleeping in a tree the night before. Everybody sits and wa its in the shade of the trees while the family begins to wake up and move off. Th en we follow as they wander into the forest. Most of the time, chimps either feed or clean each other as a way of showing love in their family. Jane warns us that our group is going to be very tired and dirty by the afternoon and she is right. Ho wever, the evening makes it all worthwhile. We watch the mother chimp and her b abies play in the tree. Then we see them go to sleep together in their nest for the night. We realize that the bond between members of a chimp family is as strong as in a human family.Nobody before Jane fully understood chimp behaviour. She spent years observi ng and recording their daily activities. Since her childhood she had wanted to work with animals in their own environment. However, this was not easy. When she firs t arrived in Gombe in 1960, it was unusual for a woman to live in the forest. Only after her mother came to help her for the first few months was she allowed to be gin her project. Her work changed the way people think about chimps. For exampl e, one important thing she discovered was that chimps hunt and eat meat. Until th en everyone had thought chimps ate only fruit and nuts. She actually observed chi mps as a group hunting a monkey and then eating it. She also discovered how chimps communicate with each other, and her study of their body language helped h er work out their social system.For forty years Jane Goodall has been outspoken about making the rest of the world understand and respect the life of these animals. She has argued that wild animals should be left in the wild and not used for entertainment or advertisements. She has helped to set up special places where they can live safely. She is leadin g a busy life but she says: "Once I stop, it all comes crowding in and I remember the chimps in laboratories. It's terrible. It affects me when I watch the wild chimps.I say to myself, 'Aren't they lucky?" And then I think about small chimps in cages though they have done nothing wrong. Once you have seen that you can never f orget ..."She has achieved everything she wanted to do: working with animals in their o wn environment, gaining a doctor's degree and showing that women can live in the forest as men can. She inspires those who want to cheer the achievements of wo men.WHY NOT CARRY ON HER GOOD WORK?I enjoyed English, biology, and chemistry at school, but which one should I ch oose to study at university? I did not know the answer until one evening when I s at down at the computer to do some research on great women of China.By chance I came across an article about a doctor called Lin Qiaozhi, a speci alist in women's diseases. She lived from 1901 to 1983. It seemed that she had b een very busy in her chosen career, travelling abroad to study as well as writing b ooks and articles. One of them caught my eye. It was a smallbook explaining how to cut the death rate from having and caring for babies. She gave some simple rules to follow for keeping babies clean, healthy and free fr om sickness. Why did she write that? Who were the women that Lin Qiaozhi thoug ht needed this advice? I looked carefully at the text andrealized that it was intended for women in the countryside. Perhaps if they had an emergency they could not reach a doctor.Suddenly it hit me how difficult it was for a woman to get medical training at t hat time. That was a generation when girls' education was always placed second t o boys'. Was she so much cleverer than anyone else? Further reading made me r ealize that it was hard work and determination as well as her gentle nature that go t her into medical school. What made her succeed later on was the kindness and consideration she showed to all her patients. There was story after story of how Li n Qiaozhi, tired after a day's work, went late at night to deliver a baby for a poor family who could not pay her.By now I could not wait to find out more about her. I discovered that Lin Qiao zhi had devoted her whole life to her patients and had chosen not to have a famil y of her own. Instead she made sure that about 50,000 babies were safely deliver ed. By this time I was very excited. Why not study at medical college like Lin Qia ozhi and carry on her good work? It was still not too late for me to improve my st udies, prepare for the university entrance examinations, and….必修4 Unit 2 A PIONEER FOR ALL PEOPLEAlthough he is one of China's most famous scientists, Yuan Longping consider s himself a farmer, for he works the land to do his research. Indeed, his sunburntface and arms and his slim, strong body are just like those of millions of Chinese farmers, for whom he has struggled for the past five decades. Dr Yuan Longping g rows what is called super hybrid rice. In 1974, he became the first agricultural pion eer in the world to grow rice that has a high output. This special strain of rice ma kes it possible to produce one-third more of the crop in the same fields. Now mor e than 60% of the rice produced in China each year is from this hybrid strain.Born into a poor farmer's family in 1930, Dr Yuan graduated from Southwest A gricultural College in 1953. Since then, finding ways to grow more rice has been hi s life goal. As a young man, he saw the great need for increasing the rice output. At that time, hunger was a disturbing problem in many parts of the countryside. D r Yuan searched for a way to increase rice harvests without expanding the area of the fields. In 1950, Chinese farmers could produce only fifty million tons of rice. I n a recent harvest, however, nearly two hundred million tons of rice was produced. These increased harvests mean that 22% of the world's people are fed from just 7% of the farmland in China. Dr Yuan is now circulating his knowledge in India, Vi etnam and many other less developed countries to increase their rice harvests. Th anks to his research, the UN has more tools in the battle to rid the world of hung er. Using his hybrid rice, farmers are producing harvests twice as large as before.Dr Yuan is quite satisfied with his life. However, he doesn't care about being f amous. He feels it gives him less freedom to do his research. He would much rath er keep time for his hobbles. He enjoys listening to violin music, playing mah-jong, swimming and reading. Spending money on himself or leading a comfortable life a lso means very little to him. Indeed, he believes that a person with too much mon ey has more rather than fewer troubles. He therefore gives millions of yuan to equi p others for their research in agriculture.Just dreaming for things, however, costs nothing. Long ago Dr yuan had a dre am about rice plants as tall as sorghum. Each ear of rice was as big as an ear of corn and each grain of rice was as huge as a peanut. Dr Yuan awoke from his dream with the hope of producing a kind of rice that could feed more people. Now, many years later, Dr Yuan has another dream: to export his rice so that it can b e grown around the globe. One dream is not always enough, especially for a pers on who loves and cares for his people.CHEMICAL OR ORGANIC FARMING?Over the past half century, using chemical fertilizers has become very common in farming. Many farmers welcomed them as a great way to stop crop disease an d increase production. Recently, however, scientists have been finding that long-ter m use of these fertilizers can cause damage to the land and, even more dangerou s, to people's health.What are some of the problems caused by chemical fertilizers? First, they dam age the land by killing the helpful bacteria and pests as well as the harmful ones. Chemicals also stay in the ground and underground water for a long time. This aff ects crops and, therefore, animals and humans, since chemicals get inside the cro ps and cannot just be washed off. These chemicals in the food supply build up in people's bodies over time. Many of these chemicals can lead to cancer or other ill nesses. In addition, fruit, vegetables and other food grown with chemical fertilizers usually grow too fast to be full of much nutrition. They may look beautiful, but insi de there is usually more water than vitamins and minerals.With these discoveries, some farmers and many customers are beginning to tu rn to organic farming. Organic farming is simply farming without using any chemicals. They focus on keeping their soil rich and free of disease. A healthy soil reduces disease and helps crops grow strong and healthy. Organic farmers, therefore, ofte n prefer using natural waste from animals as fertilizer. They feel that this makes th e soil in their fields richer in minerals and so more fertile. This also keeps the air, soil, water and crops free from chemicals.Organic farmers also use many other methods to keep the soil fertile. They oft en change the kind of crop in each field every few years, for example, growing cor n or wheat and then the next year peas or soybeans. Crops such as peas or soy beans put important minerals back into the soil, making it ready for crops such as wheat or corn that need rich and fertile soil. Organic farmers also plant crops to u se different levels of soil, for example, planting peanuts that use the ground's surfa ce followed by vegetables that put down deep roots. Some organic farmers prefer planting grass between crops to prevent wind or water from carrying away the soil, and then leaving it in the ground to become a natural fertilizer for the next year's crop. These many different organic farming methods have the same goal: to grow good food and avoid damaging the environment or people's health.必修4 Unit 3 A MASTER OF NONVERBAL HUMOURAs Victor Hugo once said, "Laughter is the sun that drives winter from the hu man face", and up to now nobody has been able to do this better than Charlie Ch aplin. He brightened the lives of Americans and British through two world wars and the hard years in between. He made people laugh at a time when they felt depre ssed, so they could feel more content with their lives.Not that Charlie's own life was easy! He was born in a poor family in 1889. H is parents were both poor music hall performers. You may find it astonishing thatCharlie was taught to sing as soon as he could speak and dance as soon as he could walk. Such training was common in acting families at this time, especially wh en the family income was often uncertain. Unfortunately his father died, leaving the family even worse off, so Charlie spent his childhood looking after his sick mother and his brother. By his teens, Charlie had, through his humour, become one of th e most popular child actors in England. He could mime and act the fool doing ordi nary everyday tasks. No one was ever bored watching him -his subtle acting made everything entertaining.As time went by, he began making films. He grew more and more popular as his charming character, the little tramp, became known throughout the world. The tr amp, a poor, homeless man with a moustache, wore large trousers, worn-out shoe s and a small round black hat. He walked around stilly carrying a walking stick. Th is character was a social failure but was loved for his optimism and determination t o overcome all difficulties. He was the underdog who was kind even when others were unkind to him.How did the little tramp make a sad situation entertaining? Here is an example from one of his most famous films, The Gold Rush. It is the mid-nineteenth centu ry and gold has just been discovered in California. Like so many others, the little t ramp and his friend have rushed there in search of gold, but without success. Inst ead they are hiding in a small hut on the edge of a mountain during a snowstorm with nothing to eat. They are so hungry that they try boiling a pair of leather sho es for their dinner. Charlie first picks out the laces and eats them as if they were spaghetti. Then he cuts off the leather top of the shoe as if it were the finest stea k. Finally he tries cutting and chewing the bottom of the shoe. He eats each mouthful with great enjoyment. The acting is so convincing that it makes you believe th at it is one of the best meals he has ever tasted!Charlie Chaplin wrote, directed and produced the films he starred in. In 1972 h e was given a special Oscar for his outstanding work in films. He lived in England and the USA but spent his last years in Switzerland, where he was buried in 197 7. He is loved and remembered as a great actor who could inspire people with gr eat confidence.ENGLISH JOKES1 There are thousands of jokes which use "play on words" to amuse us. One person asks a question which expects a particular reply. Instead, what he gets is a nother kind of answer which makes the situation funny. Now read some of these c ustomer and waiter jokes. Can you match the joke with the explanation?1 C: What's that fly doing in my soup?W: Swimming, I think!2 C: What's that?W: It's bean soup.C: I don't want to know what it's been. I want to know what it is now.3 C: Waiter, will the pancakes be long?W: No, sir. Round.2 Some jokes are longer and tell a short, funny story. The following is one of those jokes about the famous detective Sherlock Holmes and his friend Doctor W atson. Read it and decide which of these two kinds of jokes you like better. Give your reasons.Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson went camping in a mountainous area. Th ey were lying in the open air under the stars. Sherlock Holmes looked up at the st ars and whispered, "Watson, when you look at that beautiful sky, what do you thin k of?" Watson replied, "I think of how short life is and how long the universe has l asted." "No, no, Watson!" Holmes said. "What do you really think of?." Watson trie d again. "I think of how small I am and how vast the sky is." "Try again, Watson!" said Holmes. Watson tried a third time. "I think of how cold the universe is and h ow warm people can be in their beds." Holmes said, "Watson, you fool! You shoul d be thinking that someone has stolen our tent!"必修4 Unit 4COMMUNICATION: NO PROBLEM?Yesterday, another student and I, representing our university's student associati on, went to the Capital International Airport to meet this year's international student s. They were coming to study at Beijing University. We would take them first to th eir dormitories and then to the student canteen. After half an hour of waiting for th eir flight to arrive, I saw several young people enter the waiting area looking aroun d curiously. I stood for a minute watching them and then went to greet them.The first person to arrive was Tony Garcia from Colombia, closely followed by Julia Smith from Britain. After I met them and then introduced them to each other,I was very surprised. Tony approached Julia, touched her shoulder and kissed her on the cheek! She stepped back appearing surprised and put up her hands, as if in defence. I guessed that there was probably a major misunderstanding. Then Ak ira Nagata from Japan came in smiling, together with George Cook from Canada. As they were introduced, George reached his hand out to the Japanese student. J ust at that moment, however, Akira bowed so his nose touched George's moving h and. They both apologized - another cultural mistake!Ahmed Aziz, another international student, was from Jordan. When we met yes terday, he moved very close to me as I introduced myself. I moved back a bit, but he came closer to ask a question and then shook my hand. When Darlene Coulo n from France came dashing through the door, she recognized Tony Garcia's smili ng face. They shook hands and then kissed each other twice on each cheek, sinc e that is the French custom when adults meet people they know. Ahmed Aziz., on the contrary, simply nodded at the girls. Men from Middle Eastern and other Musli m countries will often stand quite close to other men to talk but will usually not to uch women.As I get to know more international friends, I learn more about this cultural "bo dy language". Not all cultures greet each other the same way, nor are they comfor table in the same way with touching or distance between people. In the same way that people communicate with spoken language, they also express their feelings u sing unspoken "language" through physical distance, actions or posture. English pe ople, for example, do not usually stand very close to others or touch strangers as soon as they meet. However, people from places like Spain, Italy or South Americ an countries approach others closely and are more likely to touch them. Most peop。

高中英语人教版:必修一+被动语态+Word版

高中英语人教版:必修一+被动语态+Word版

被动语态(一)简介在英语中,语态是动词的一种形式,表示主语和谓语的关系。

英语动词有两种语态,即主动语态和被动语态。

主动语态(active voice) 表示主语是动作的执行者;被动语态(passive voice)表示主语是动作的承受者。

如:Saddam is being tried. 萨达姆正在接受审判。

The Iraqi government is trying Saddam. 伊拉克政府正在审判萨达姆。

More and more people use computers now.(主动语态)Computers are more and more widely used now.(被动语态)English is spoken all over the world. (被动语态)(二)英汉两种语言在表达被动方式上的差异汉语表达被动语态非常简单明了,用“被”“遭”“受”等词来表示,如“被捕”、“被杀”、“受到凌辱”等。

而英语表达被动的方式也不复杂,用“助动词be+动词的过去分词”表示。

其中助动词be有人称、数量和时态的变化,而这正是英语被动语态的难点。

(三)被动语态的构成被动语态由“be+及物动词的过去分词”构成。

这里要强调一定是及物动词的过去分词,因为不及物动词不能带宾语,也就不可能有被动语态。

英语主动语态有16个时态;被动语态常用的有8个,以give为例说明如下:被动语态的疑问句是将第一个助动词移到主语之前、句末用问号;否定式是在第一个助动词后加not 或never等其他否定词、句末用句号。

如:“During the interview, were you asked questions in English?” “No, I wasn’t asked questions in English.” “面试的时候,用英语问你问题了吗?”“没有,没有用英语问我问题。

”The origin of the universe will probably never be explained. 宇宙的起源大概永远也不会被解释清楚。

Book2 Unit1 Cultural relicsIN SEARCH OF THE AMBER ROOM寻找琥珀屋Frederick William I, the King of Prussia, could never have imagined that his greatest gift to the Russian people would have such an amazing history. This gift was theAmber Room, which was given this name because several tons of amber were used tomake it. The amber which was selected had a beautiful yellow-brown colour like honey. The design of the room was in the fancy style popular in those days. It was alsoa treasure decorated with gold and jewels, which took the country's best artistsabout ten years to make.普鲁士国王腓特烈·威廉一世绝不可能想到他送给俄罗斯人民的厚礼会有一段令人惊讶的历史。

这件礼物就是琥珀屋 , 它之所以有这个名字 , 是因为造这间房子用了近几吨琥珀 , 被选择的琥珀色彩艳丽 , 呈黄褐色 , 像蜜一样。

屋子的设计当时流行的极富艺术表现力的建筑风格。

琥珀屋这件珍品还镶嵌着黄金和珠宝 , 全国最优秀的艺术家用了是年的时间才完成它。

In fact, the room was not madeto be a gift. It was designed for the palace of Frederick I. However, the next King of Prussia, Frederick William I, to whom the amber room belonged, decided not to keep it. In 1716 he gave it to Peter the Great. In return,the Czar sent him a troop of his best soldiers. So the Amber Room became part ofthe Czar's winter palace in St Petersburg. About four metres long, the room servedas a small reception hall for important visitors.事实上, 琥珀屋并不是作为礼物而建造的。

普通高中课程标准实验教科书《英语》电子课本Book 3Unit 1 Festivals around the worldB3U1P1-3FESTIVALS AND CELEBRATIONSAncient FestivalsFestivals and celebrations of all kinds are held everywhere. The most ancient festivals would celebrate the end of the cold weather, planting in spring and harvest in autumn. Other celebrations were held when hunters could catch animals. They would starve if food was difficult to find, so they celebrated when they had food. They lit fires and made music because they thought these festivals would bring a year of plenty.Festivals of the DeadSome festivals are held to honour the dead, or satisfy and please the ancestors, who could return either to help or to do harm. In Japan the festival is called Obon, when people should go to clean the graves and light incense in memory of their ancestors. They light lamps and play music because they think that this will lead the ancestors back to earth. In Mexico they have the Day of the Dead in early November. On this important feast day, people might eat food in shape of skulls, and cakes with “bones” on them. They offer food, flowers and gifts to the dead. The festival of Halloween had its origin as an event in memory of the dead. It is now a children’s festival, when they can go to their neighbours’ homes and ask for sweets. They dress up and try to frighten people. If they are not given anything, the children might play a trick.Festivals to Honour PeopleFestivals can be held as an honour to famous people or to the gods. One of these is the Dragon Boat Festival in China, which honours the famous ancient poet, Qu Yuan. Another is Columbus Day in the USA, in memory of the arrival of Christopher Columbus in America. In India there is a national festival on October 2 to honour Mahatma Gandhi, the leader who helped gain India’s independence from Britain.Harvest FestivalsHarvest and Thanksgiving festivals can be very happy events. People are grateful because their food is gathered for the winter ,and because a season of agricultural work is over. In European countries it is the custom to decorate churches and town halls with flowers and fruit, and people get together to have meals. Some people might win awards for their animals, flowers, fruits and vegetables, like the biggest watermelon or the most handsome rooster. In China and Japan there are mid-autumn festivals, when people admire the moon and give gift of mooncakes.Spring FestivalsThe most energetic and important festivals are the ones that look forward to the end of winter and to the coming of spring. At the Spring Festival in China, people eat dumplings, fish and meat, and may give children lucky money in the red paper. There are dragon dances andcarnivals, and families celebrate the lunar New Year together. In some Western countries there are very exciting carnivals, which take place forty days before Easter, usually in February. They might include parades, dancing in the streets day and night, loud music and colourful clothing of all kinds. Easter is an important religious and social festival in Christian countries. It celebrates the return of Jesus for Christians and it also celebrates the coming of spring.In Japan, the Cherry Blossom Festival happens a little later. The country is covered with cherry tree flowers so that it looks as though it might be covered with pink snow.People love to get together to eat, drink and have fun with each others. Festivals let us enjoy life, be proud of our customs and forget our daily life for a little while.B3U1P4We think it has always been the custom for people to have festivals. They are a time to enjoy each other’s company and have fun with our friends. We think that long ago people looked forward to the celebrations. Our ancestors would sit round a fire and cook plenty of meat to eat. Then they would be satisfied with their festival.B3U1P7A SAD LOVE STORYLi Fang was heart-broken. It was Valentine’s Day and Hu Jin had said she would meet him at the coffee shop after work. But she didn’t turn up. She could be with her friends right now laughing at him. She said she would be there at seven o’clock, and he thought she would keep her word. He had looked forward to meeting her all day, and now he was alone with his roses and chocolates, like a fool. Well, he was not going to hold his breath for her apologise. He would drown his sadness in coffee.It was obvious that the manager of the coffee shop was waiting for Li Fang to leave-he wiped the tables, then sat down and turned on the TV-just what Li Fang needed! A sad Chinese story about lost love.The seventh daughter of the Goddess of Heaven visited the earth. Her name was Zhinu, the weaving girl, and she was the most lovely of the daughters. While she was on earth she met the herd boy Niulang and they fell in love. (“Just like me and Hu Jin, ”thought Li Fang.) They got married secretly, and they were very happy. (“We could be like that, ” thought Li Fang.) When the Goddess of Heaven knew that her daughter was married to a human, she became very angry and made the weaving girl return to Heaven. Niulang tried to follow her, but the river of stars, the Milky Way, stopped him. Finding that Zhinu was heart-broken, her mother finally decided to let the couple cross the Milky Way to meet once a year. This happens when the stars Vega and Altair meet in the Heaven. Magpies make a bridge of their wings so the couple can cross the river to meet on the seventh lunar month. people in China hope that the weather will be fine on that day, because if it is raining, it means that Zhinu is weeping and the couple won’t be able to meet.The announcer said, “this is the story of Qiqiaojie. When foreigners hear about the story, they call it a Chinese Valentine’s story. It’s a fine day today, so I hope you can all meet the one you love.’’As Li Fang set off for home, he thought, “I guess Hu Jin doesn’t love me. I’ll just throw these flowers and chocolates away. I don’t want them to remind me of her.’’ So he did.As he sadly passed the tea shop on the corner on his way home, he heard a voice calling him. There was Hu Jin waving at him and calling, “Why are you so late? I’ve been waiting for you for a long time! And I have a gift for you!”What would he do? He had thrown away her Valentine gifts! She would never forgive him. This would not be a happy Valentine’s Day!B3U1P44&45Winter carnival in QuebecWe are sitting in a café in old Quebec, drinking hot coffee to try to warm up. The temperature is 32 degrees below freezing. The windows are covered with steam from the heat inside. Outside, the snow covers the streets and is piled up along the sidewalks and in parking lots. The music and lights of the carnival continue, but we have been watching the parades, riding in horse carriages and listening to the music all day. Our feet are freezing and our noses are red.Quebec carnival is the biggest winter festival in the world – every year, hundreds of thousands of people come to Quebec to take part in a week of activities. If you come, you must be prepared to keep moving, as it is too cold to stand and watch for long.Early in the morning, you can watch the snowboarding competitions on the hill overlooking the river. The competitions speed down the track and through the air though they could fly.If you are brave enough, you can try the canoe race. Five or six men paddle in each canoe across the great St Lawrence River, which is partly frozen. Of course, the river is full of big pieces of ice, and if you were to fall in, you would freeze in less than two minutes.One of the favourite events is the dog-sled race, in which teams of about 6 Husky dogs pull long sleds at great speeds along a snowy track. One person runs behind the sled, shouting to the dogs to encourage them. The sound of the dogs barking, the calls of the drivers and the shouts of the crowd make an exciting Northern experience. The dogs are beautiful strong animals, with long, thick fur. Many of them have blue eyes.After admiring the ice sculptures everywhere in the city, much like those in Harbin in China, you can have a cup of tae or coffee in an igloo. It is amazing how warm these ice houses can be!Late in the evening, you can go to the snow palace, where Bonhomme the snowman is king, and join the crowd. You can dance outside to the music of a band, who are all dressed in heavy clothes – even some of their instruments are dressed up for winter.Finally we sit down in our café to warm up and to plan tomorrow – perh aps we’ll join the snowmobile races –or perhaps we’ll just sleep in.Book 3 Unit 2 Healthy eatingB3U2P10COME AND EAT HERE (1)Wang Peiwei sat in his empty restaurant feeling very frustrated. It had been a very strange morning. Usually he got up early and prepared his menu of mutton kebabs, roast pork and fried rice. Then by lunchtime they would all be sold. His restaurant ought to be full of people. But not today! Why was it so? What could have happened? He thought of his mutton kebabs and fatty pork cooked in the hottest, finest oil. His fried rice was hot but did not taste of fat. His cola was sugary and cold and his ice cream was made of eggs, milk, creamand fruit. “Nothing could have been better,” he thought. Suddenly he saw his friend Li Maochang hurrying by. “Hello,Maochang,”he called, “Your usual?” But Maochang seemed not to hear. What was the matter? Something terrible must have happened if Maochang was not coming to eat with him as he always did.Pengwei followed Li Maochang into a newly-opened small restaurant at the end of the street. There was a sign in the window.Tired of all that fat? Want to be thinner?Come inside to Yong Hui’s slimming restaurant.Only slimming foods served here.Make yourself thin again.Curiosity drove Wang Pengwei inside. It was full of people. A very thin lady came forward. “Welcome!”she said, “My name is Yong will take all that fat off you in two weeks if you eat here every day.” Then she gave a menu to Wang Peiwei. There were only two kinds of food and one drink on it: raw vegetables, fruit and water. Wang Peiwei was amazed at this and especially at the prices. It cost more than a good meal in his own restaurant. He could not believe his eyes! He threw away the menu and hurried outside. On his way home he thought about his own menu. Did it make people fat? He wondered if he should go to the library to find out. He couldn’t have Yong Hui getting away with telling people lies! He had better do some research!After reading, he realised what was wrong with Yong Hui’s restaurant. It was not giving its customers energy-giving food! After eating in her restaurant people would become tired very quickly. Perhaps this was a way to win his customers back! Peng Wei wrote his own sign. It said:Want to feel fit?Come and eat here!Our food gives you energy all day!The competition between the two restaurants was on!B3U2P12Daisy wished to be ___so that she could wear all the latest, cool clothes designed for the young. She decided to do some ___into what foods should be eaten to become thinner. She learned that one of the ___of not eating enough was to become very tired quickly. When she went to the doctor, he told her she could be thinner as well as healthy if she ate more vegetables like beans,___and ___.So she did. She felt very fit when she started eating more ___foods as well as her usual energy–giving foods. She even began to enjoy eating all the vegetables___rather than cooked. She soon looked like a model!B3U2P14&P15COME AND EAT HERE (2)The next day Wang Pengwei’s restaurant was nearly full and he felt happier. Perhaps he would be able to earn his living after all and not have to close his restaurant. He did not look forward to being in debt because his restaurant was no longer popular. He smiled .But the smile left his face when he saw Yong Hui walking in. She did not look happy but glared at him as she moved round the customers. “May I ask what you were doing in my restaurant yesterday? I thought you were a new customer and now I find you came only to spy on me and my menu,” she shouted. “Please excuse me,” he calmly explained,“I wanted to know where all my customers had gone yesterday. I followed one of them and found them in your restaurant. I don’t want to upset you but I found your menu so limited that I stopped worrying and started advertising the benefits of my food. Why don’t you sit down and try a meal?”Yong Hui agreed to stay and soon they were both enjoying the dumplings, fatty pork and cola.When they were served the ice cream Yong Hui began to look ill. “I feel sick with all this fat and heavy food,”she said,“I miss my vegetables and fruit.”Wang Pengwei was just enjoying a second plate of dumplings so he sighed.“yes,”he added,“and I would miss my dumplings and fatty por k. But don’t you tired quickly?”“Well, now you mention it. I do have to rest a lot, ”admitted Yong Hui. “But don’t you think it would be better if you were a bit thinner?”she asked Wang Pengwei. “I’m sure you would feel much healthier.”They began chatting about menus and balanced diets. “My research has shown me that neither your restaurant nor mine offers a balanced diet,”explained Pengwei,“I don’t offer enough fibre and you don’t offer enough body–building or energy–giving foods. Perhaps we ought to combine our menus and provide a balanced menu with foods full of energy and fibre. ”So that is what they did ,They served raw vegetables with the hamburgers and boiled the potatoes rather than fried them .Then they served fresh fruit with ice cream. In this way they cut down the fat and increased the fibre in the meal. Their balanced menus became such a success that before long Wang Pengwei became slimmer and Yong Hui heavier. After some time the found that their business cooperation had turned into a personal one .Finally they got married and lived happily ever after!B3U2P52-53THE TOWN HAS TO DECIDE(At the meeting that evening there are two speakers: one for and one against building a McDonald’s restaurant.)FOR BUILDING A MCDONALD’SI was excited when I heard that our community(社区) was to have its own McDonald’s restaurant. I thought about all those young people who would not have to go to the next town to buy their favourite burgers and chips. McDonald’s cares about healthy eating too and works with scientists to provide food that is of high quality,safe and healthy. It is also cheap .They often provide salads as well as burgers and chips. You can also choose between cola and milk shakes(奶昔). Of course it also means more work for our area that needs jobs badly. McDonald’s say they are interested in doing what is right for the community and being a good neighbour. So I think they will be concerned about providing parking for the cars in our main street. Many of our young people will be only too happy to work for it. They make a promise to the people that work for them. They say,“We value you, your growing skills and your help to the company.”I can see nothing but good if this company comes to build its restaurant in our town.AGAINST BUILDING A MCDONALD’SI am very worried about McDonald’s building a restaurant in our hometown. We are a small community and we enjoy our local dishes. I am not sure if McDonald’s food is as healthy as they say in their advertisements. When scientists look at it carefully they find high levels of fat, sugar and salt. This is very worrying. Too many young people are getting fat through eating too much fatty food. McDonald’s is not giving young people a good idea of what a healthy diet should be. Local Chinese food ,on the other hand, is full of fresh vegetables and fresh meat and fish. The food at a McDonald’s restaurant is always the same so I wonder if it is made or brought in from elsewhere. Although it is freshly cooked ,it must be less healthy than our own locally grown and cooked Chinese food.I also worry about all those cars bringing people to buy food in McDonald’s. First, there would be petrol fumes(气体),which would make our clean air dirty. Second, there’s the problem of all those cars that try to park and prevent other cars from moving quickly through our town. Third, what will happen to all the food containers if people decide to eat on the side of the road just out of town? Will they just throw them on the ground?I’m sure many young people would be happy to work for McDonald’s but will they be treated fairly(公平地)?In American, McDonald’s does not allow Unions to operate in its restaurants and these are people who speak up for the workers. If ,as they say, the workers are happy with them why should they fear some workers joining a Union?So when I consider the food, the cars and the jobs, I think we should not allow McDonald’s to build their restaurant in our town.Book 3 Unit 3 The Million Pound Bank-noteB3U3P17-18ACT ONENote: Scenes 1 and 2 are provided in the Teacher’s Book.Scene 3NARRATOR Now ladies and gentlemen , you’re about to hear the most incredible tale. It is the summer of 1903, and Henry Adams, an American business, has had some very bad luck. He is lost in London. He has no money and does not know what he should do. Walking down the street, he hears someone calling him. RODERICK Young man, would you step inside a moment, please?HENRY Who? Me, sir?RODERICK Yes, you.OLIVER Through the front door on your left.HENRY (a servant opens the door for him) Thanks.SERVANT Good morning, sir, would you please come in? Permit meto lead the way ,sir.OLIVER Thank you, James. That will be all.RODERICK How do you do, Mister-er-?HENRY Adams, Henry Adams.OLIVER Come and sit down, Mr Adams.HENRY Thank you.RODERICK You’re an American?HENRY That’s right, from San Francisco.RODERICK How well do you know LondonHENRY Not at all. It’s my first trip here.RODERICK I wonder, Mr Adams, if you’d mind us asking a few questions.HENRY Go right ahead.RODERICK May we ask what you’re doing in this country and what your plans are?HENRY Well, I can’t say that I have any plans. I’m hoping to find work. As a matter of fact, I landed in Britian by accident.OLIVER How is that possible?HENRY Well, you see, back home I had my own boat. About a month ago I was sailing out of the bay-(his eyes stare at what is left of the brother’s dinner on the table)RODERICK Well, go on.HENRY Oh, yes. Well, towards nightfall I found myself carried out to sea by a strong wind. I did not know whether I could survive until morning. The next morning I’d just about given myself up for lost when I was spotted by a ship.OLIVER And it was the ship that bought you to England.HENRY I earned my passage by working as an unpaid hand, which accounts for my appearance. (the brothers smile at each other)RODERICK Well, you mustn’t worry about that. It’s an advantage.HENRY I’m afraid I don’t quite follow you, sir.RODERICK Tell us, Mr Adams, what sort of work did you do in America?HENRY I worked for a mining company. Could you offer me some kind of work here?RODERICK Patience, Mr Adams. If you don’t mind, may I ask you how much money you have?HENRY Well, to be honest, I have none.OLIVER (happily) What luck! Brother, what luck!(claps his hands together)HENRY Well, it may seem lucky to you but not to me. If this is your idea of some kind of joke, I don’t think it’s very funny. (Henry stands u p to leave)Now, if you’ll excuse me, I think I’ll be on my way. RODERICK Please don’t go, Mr mustn’t think we don’t care about you. Oliver, give him the letter. OLIVER Yes, the letter.(gets it from a desk and gives it to Henry like a gift) The letter.HENRY (taking it carefully) For me?RODERICK For you. (Henry starts to open to it) Oh, no, you mustn’t open it. Not yet. You can’t open it until two two o’clock.HENRY Oh, this is silly.RODERICK Not silly. There’s money in it. (calls to the servant) James.HENRY Oh, no, I don’t want your charity. I just want an honest job.RODERICK We know you’re hard-working. That’s why we’ve given you the letter. James, show Mr Adams out.OLIVER Good luck, Mr Adams.HENRY Well, why don’t you explain what this is all about?RODERICK You’ll soon know. In exactly an hour and a half.SERVANT This way, sir.RODERICK Mr Adams, not until 2 o’clock. Promise?HENRY Promise. Good-bye.B3U3p20One day my uncle told me a about a man who made a that he would be able to walk to the foot of a mountain by .The mountain was over 100 kilometres away from his home so people were happy to take the bet because they thought it was that anybody could walk so far in one day. But they did not realise that the man had a plan ready. He got histo drive a large truck which would meet him on the road as if . The truck would give the man a ride and he would continue to pretend to walk as the truck moved along. In this way the man made his at the foot of the mountain before nightfall and he won his bet. He said he had walked all the way though not always on the road!B3U3P21&22Reading and actingAct one, Scene 4(Outside a restaurant Henry looks at the envelope with the letter and decides to go in. He sits down at a table next to the front windows.)OWNER (seeing Henry’s poor appearance)That’s one’s reserved. This way, please.(to the waiter) take this gentleman’s order, Horace.HENRY (after sitting down and putting the letter on the table) I’d like some ham and eggs and a nice big steak. And make it extra thick.WAITER it’ll cost a tiny bit.HENRY I understand. And I’ll have a nice glass of beer. (the waiter leaves foe the kitchen)HOSTESS my goodness! He eats like a wolf.OWNER we’ll see if he’s clever as a wolf, eh?HENRY (having just finished every bit of food) Ah, waiter. (waiter returns) same things again, please.Oh, and another beer.WAITER Again, everything?HENRY Yes, that’s right. (sees the look on the waiter’s face) Anything wrong?WAITER (to the restaurant owner) He’s asked for more of the same.OWNER it is well-known that many Americans like to eat a lot. Well, we have to take a chance. Go ahead and let him have it.WAITER (reading the bill after the meal) all right. That’s two orders of ham and eggs, two extra thick steaks, two tall glasses of beer, two cups of coffee and two desserts.HENRY would you mind waiting just a few minutes?WAITER (in a rude manner) what’s there to wait for?OWNER all right, Horace, I’ll take care of this.HENRY (to owner) That was a wonderful meal. It’s amazing how much pleasure you get out of the simple things in life, especially if you can’t have them for a while.OWNER Yes, very interesting. Now perhaps if you pay the bill I can help the other customers.HENRY (looking at the clock on the wall) Well, I see it’s two o’clock. (he opens the letter and holds a million pound bank-note in his hands. Henry is surprised but the owner and the waiter areshocked, and nervous) I’m very sorry. But … I ... I … I don’t have anything smaller.OWNER (still shocked and nervous) Well, er- er-just one moment. Maggie, look! (the hostess screams, the other customs look at her and she put a hand to her mouth).HOSTESS oh, dear, I don’t know. I simply don’t know. Ask Mr. Clemens. (the owner goes to a gentleman sitting near the window)OWNER Mr. Clemens, Mr. Clemens! Could you –er- look at this? (hands him the bank–note) do you think it’s genuine?CLEMENS (looking at it very carefully) Two notes in this amount have been issued by the Bank of England this year. Any way, it can’t be fake.OWNER Why not?CLEMENS People will give too much attention to a bank-note of this amount. No thief would want that to happen.HOSTESS (joining them) But look at the owner, Mr. Clemens. He’s in rags.CLEMENS Hmm, yes. I see. Well, I can only say that he must be a very strange but very rich man.OWNER (as if he has discovered something for the first time) Why, yes! That must be it!HOSTESS (hit her husband’s arm) And you put him in the back of the restaurant! Go and see him at once! OWNER I’m so sorry, sir, so sorry, but I cannot change this bank-note.HENRY But it’s all I have on me.OWNER Oh, please, don’t worry, sir. Doesn’t matter at all. We are so very glad that you even entered our little eating place. Indeed, sir, I trust that you’ll come here whenever you like.HENRY Well, that’s very kind of you.OWNER Kind, sir? No, it’s kind of you, sir. You must come whenever you want and have whatever you like. Just having you sit here is a great honour!HENRY I may not return for some time.OWNER It would be wrong of me not trust a gentleman such as yourself, sir, (now the other customs are watching them) even if you do dress in a rather unusual way. As for the bill, sir, pleaseforget it.HENRY Forget it? Well … thank you very much. That’s very nice of you.OWNER Oh, it’s for us to thank you, sir and I do, sir, from my heart. (the owner, hostess and waiter all bow together as Henry leaves)B3U3P23ABOUT MARK TWAINMark Twain was born in Florida and spent his boyhood in Hannibal,Missouri,along the Mississippi River. Three of his most famous books describe people on this great river. They are The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and Life on the Mississippi. Indeed, this author loved the river so much that even his pen name is about the riv er. “Twain” is an old word for “two.” So, to “mark twain,” is to say that the water is two fathoms deep. A fathom is equal to six feet or metres. Twain left school at school at the age of twelve to look for work. Over the next two decades he was a printer, a riverboat pilot, a soldier, a good miner, a businessman and a newspaper reporter. His first successful story was about a jumping frog contest. His writing became famous for its description of common people and the way they talked, but especially for his humour. He became rich from the many novels, short stories and travel journals he wrote and was very popular at public readings. Yale and Oxford Universities honoured him for his writing. However, the last years of his life were filled with sad events, loneliness and the loss of much money. His writing lost most of its humour and became sad like him. Yet he is still one of the most popular writers in the world today.B3U3P59—60ACT TWOScene 4NARRATOR At the end of month, Henry was very rich and didn’t fear jail. Dressed in the finest clothes, he drove by the brothers’ house in Portland Place and, seeing they were back, went to get Portia at her friend’s home.HENRY My dear, the way you look today, it would be a crime not to ask for a good salary for the job they’ll give to me.PORTIA Oh , please remember that if we ask for too much we may get no salary at all; and then what’ll happen to us, with no way in the world to earn a living?(at the brothers’ home , the servant lets them in. The two bro ther are seated ,waiting )HENRY Good morning, gentlemen. (Roderick seems very surprised to see Portia ) Portia ,these are the men who helped me .PORTIA So very nice to meet you, kind sirs . ( she gives Oliver a wink of the eye )RODERICK Er…Portia ,I---OLIVER We’re both glad to hear it , for now we can decide the bet which Roderick and I made .If you’ve won for me ,you shall have any job as my gift . Have you got the million pound bank-note ?HENRY I’ve won! Now what do you say , Roderick ?RODERICK I say that I’ve lost twenty thousand pounds .I never would have believed it. Why, that is amazing, man!HENRY Come, let’s be going now, Portia .OLIVER But wait, wait! The job, you know .I must give you a job, as I promised.HENRY Well, thank you very much, but I really don’t want one now.PORTIA Henry, I’m disappointed in you . You didn’t thank the gentlemen properly . May I do it for you ? HENRY Let me see you try.(Portia walks over to Roderick and gives him a hug. Then she sits in Oliver’s lap, puts her arms around his neck and kisses him on the cheek . Oliver begins laughing.)PORTIA Papa, he says he doesn’t want anything else from you .HENRY (shocked)My dear ,is that your papa?!PORTIA He’s my stepfather ,and the dearest one that ever was .HENRY Oh, my dearest dear sir , I regret what I said . You have got a job open that I want .OLIVER Name it.HENRY Son-in law.OLIVER Well , well, well! But you’ve never had such a job b efore .How can I be sure you can do it successfully?HENRY Try me—oh ,do . I beg of you ! Give me 30or 40 years ,and—OLIVER Oh ,well ,all right.NARRATOR Are Portia and Henry happy ? There are not enough words in the biggest dictionary to describe it . Did the people of London have a good time with this bit of news ? Yes . Portia’s stepfather took that friendly bank-note back to the Bank of England and cashed . The bank-note was then useless for money but was his wedding gift to the young couple .Yes , the bank-note was worth millions of dollars , but not worth one-tenth as much as how Henry felt about Portia .Book 3 Unit 4 Astronomy: the science of the stars B3U4P25-26HOW LIFE BEGAN ON THE EARTHAfter the “Big Bang ”, the earth was just a cloud of energetic dust. What it was to become was a mystery until the dust began to slowly combine into a ball moving around the sun. The problem was that the earth became violent because it was not clear whether the solid shape was to last or not. It exploded loudly with fire and rock, which in time to produce the water vapour, carbon dioxide, oxygen, nitrogen and other gases, which were to make the earth’s atmosphere. As the earth cooled down, water began to appear on its surface. Nobody knew that it was going to be different from other planets going round the sun. water had already disappeared from planets like Mars or satellites like the moon, but it stayed on the earth. This is how the earth began to show its special qualities. Many people think this was important for the beginning of life. It allowed the earth to dissolve harmful gases, which had become part of the earth’s atmosphere, into oceans and seas. That made it possible for life to begin to develop.What scientists think is that the earth was different because of the arrival of small plants growing in the water on its surface. Nobody understood that these plants were the start of many changes. They multiplied and filled the first oceans and seas with oxygen. This encouraged the development of early shellfish and all sorts of fish.。

But he became in spired whe n he tho ught about help ing ordinary people exposed to cholera. This was the deadly dise ase of its day. Neither its cause nor its cure was un derstood. So many thousa nd s of terrified people died every time there was an outbreak. Joh n Snow wan ted t o face the challe nge and solve this problem. He knew that cholera would n ever b e con trolled un til its cause was found.He became in terested in two theories that possibly expla ined how cholera ki lled people. The first suggested that cholera multiplied in the air. A cloud of dangerous gas floated around until it found its victims. The second suggested that people absorbed this disease into their bodies with their meals. From the stomach the disease quickly attacked the body and soon the affected pers on die d.Joh n Snow suspected that the sec ond theory was correct but he n eeded evide n ce. So whe n ano ther outbreak hit London in 1854, he was ready to begi n his enqu iry. As the disease spread quickly through poor n eighbourhoods, he bega n to gat her in formati on. In two particular streets, the cholera outbreak was so severe that more than 500 people died in ten days. He was determined to find out why.First he marked on a map the exact places where all the dead people had liv ed. This gave him a valuable clue about the cause of the disease. Many of the d eaths were n ear the water pump in Broad Street (especially nu mbers 16, 37, 38 a nd 40). He also no ticed that some houses (such as 20 and 21 Broad Street and 8 and 9 Cambridge Street) had had no deaths. He had not foresee n this, so he made further in vestigati ons. He discovered that these people worked in the pub at 7 Cambridge Street. They had bee n give n free beer and so had not drunk the water from the pump. It seemed that the water was to blame.Next, Joh n Snow looked into the source of the water for these two streets. He found that it came from the river polluted by the dirty water from London. H e immediately told the ast oni shed people in Broad Street to remove the han dle f rom the pump so that it could not be used. Soon afterwards the disease slowed d own. He had show n that cholera was spread by germs and not in a cloud of gas.In ano ther part of London, he found support ing evide nee from two other deat hs that were lin ked to the Broad Street outbreak. A woma n, who had moved away f rom Broad Street, liked the water from the pump so much that she had it deliver ed to her house every day. Both she and her daughter died of cholera after drin king the water. With this extra evidence John Snow was able to announce with ce rtainty that polluted water carried the virus.To preve nt this from happe ning aga in, Joh n Snow suggested that the source o f all the water supplies be exam in ed. The water panies were in structed n ot to e xpose people to polluted water any more. Fin ally "King Cholera" was defeated.COPERNICUS REVOLUTIONRRY THEORYNicolaus Coper ni cus was frighte ned and his mind was con fused. Although he h ad tried to ignore them, all his mathematical calculati ons led to the same cone lusi on: that the earth was not the centre of the solar system. Only if you put the sun there did the moveme nts of the other pla nets in the sky make sen se. Yet he could not tell anyone about his theory as the powerful Christia n Church wou ld have puni shed him for even suggesti ng such an idea. They believed God had ma de the world and for that reas on the earth was special and must be the centre o f the solar system.The problem arose because astro no mers had no ticed that some pla nets in the sky seemed to stop, move backward and the n go forward in a loop. Others appeare d brighter at times and less bright at others. This was very stra nge if the ear th was the centre of the solar system and all pla nets went round it.Coper ni cus had thought long and hard about these problems and tried to find an an swer. He had collected observati ons of the stars and used all his mathema tical kno wledge to expla in them. But on ly his new theory could do that. So betw een 1510 and 1514 he worked on it, gradually improvi ng his theory un til he felt it was plete.In 1514 he showed it privately to his frien ds. The cha nges he made to the o ld theory were revoluti on ary. He placed a fixed sun at the centre of the solar system with the pla nets going round it and only the moon still going round the earth. He also suggested that the earth was spinning as it went round the sun a nd this expla ined cha nges in the moveme nt of the pla nets and in the bright ness of the stars. His friends were en thusiastic and en couraged him to publish his i deas, but Coper nicus was cautious. He did not want to be attacked by the Christ ian Church, so he only published it as he lay dying in 1543.Certai nly he was right to be careful. The Christia n Church rejected his the ory, say ing it was aga inst God's idea and people who supported it would be atta cked. Yet Coper ni cus' theory is now the basis on which all our ideas of the uni verse are built. His theory replaced the Christia n idea of gravity, which said things fell to earth because God created the earth as the centre of the uni vers e. Coper nicus showed this was obviously wrong. Now people can see that there is a direct link betwee n his theory and the work of Isaac Newt on, Albert Ein stein and Stephe n Hawki ng.必修5 Unit 2PUZZLES IN GEOGRAPHYPeople may won der why differe nt words are used to describe these four count ries: En gla nd, Wales, Scotla nd and Norther n Irela nd. You can clarify this quest ion if you study British history.First there was En gla nd. Wales was lin ked to it in the thirtee nth cen tury. Now whe n people refer to En gla nd you find Wales in cluded as well. Next En gla nd and Wales were joined to Scotla nd in the seve ntee nth cen tury and the n ame was c han ged to "Great Brita in". Happily this was acplished without con flict whe n Kin g James of Scotla nd became King of En gla nd and Wales as well. Fin ally the En gli sh gover nment tried in the early twen tieth cen tury to form the Un ited Kin gdom b y gett ing Irela nd conn ected in the same peaceful way. However, the souther n par t of Irela nd was un willi ng and broke away to form its own gover nment. So only N orther n Irela nd joined with En gla nd, Wales and Scotla nd to bee the Un ited Kingd om and this was show n to the world in a new flag called the Union Jack.To their credit the four coun tries do work together in some areas (eg, the curre ncy and intern ati onal relati on s), but they still have very differe nt in sti tuti ons. For example, Norther n Irela nd, En gla nd and Scotla nd have differe nt edu cati onal and legal systems as well as differe nt football teams for petiti ons li ke the World Cup!En gla nd is the largest of the four coun tries, and for convenience it is div ided roughly into three zon es. The zone n earest France is called the South of E n gla nd, the middle zone is called the Midla nds and the one n earest to Scotla nd is known as the North. You find most of the populati on settled in the south, bu t most of the in dustrial cities in the Midla nds and the North of En gla nd. Altho ugh, n atio nwide, these cities are not as large as those in China, they have wor ld-famous football teams and some of them even have two! It is a pity that the in dustrial cities built in the nin etee nth cen tury do not attract visitors. For historical architecture you have to go to older but smaller tow ns built by the Roma ns. There you will find out more about British history and culture.The greatest historical treasure of all is London with its museums, art col lections, theatres, parks and buildi ngs. It is the centre of n atio nal gover nmen t and its adm ini strati on. It has the oldest port built by the Roma ns in the fir st cen tury AD, the oldest buildi ng begu n by the Anglo-Sax ons in the 1060s and t he oldest castle con structed by later Norma n rulers in 1066. There has bee n fou r sets of in vaders of En gla nd. The first in vaders, the Roma ns, left their tow ns and roads. The sec ond, the An glo-Sax on s, left their Ian guage and their gover nm ent. The third, the Vikin gs, in flue need the vocabulary and place-n ames of the N orth of En gla nd, and the fourth, the Norma ns, left castles and in troduced new w ords for food.If you look around the British coun tryside you will find evide nee of all th ese in vaders. You must keep your eyes ope n if you are going to make your trip t o the Un ited Kin gdom enjoyable and worthwhile.SIGHTSEEING IN LONDONWorried about the time available, Zhang Pin gyu had made a list of the sites she wan ted to see in London. Her first delight was going to the Tower. It wasbuilt long ago by the Norma n in vaders of AD 1066. Fancy! This solid stone, squa re tower had rema ined sta nding for one thousa nd years.Although the buildi ngs ha d expa nded around it, it rema ined part of a royal palace and pris on bin ed. To h er great surprise, Zhang Pin gyu found the Quee n's jewels guarded by special roy al soldiers who, on special occasi ons, still wore the four-h un dred-year-old uni form of the time of Queen Elizabeth I.There followed St Paul's Cathedral built after the terrible fire of London in 1666. It looked splendid when first built! Westminster Abbey, too, was very interesting. It contained statues in memory of dead poets and writers, such as Shakespeare. Then just as she came out of the abbey, Pin gyu heard the famous so und of the clock, Big Ben, ringing out the hour. She fini shed the day by look in g at the outside of Buck in gham Palace, the Quee n's house in London. Oh, she had so much to tell her frien ds!The sec ond day the girl visited Gree nwich and saw its old ships and famous clock that sets the world time. What interested her most was the Iongitude line.It is an imaginary line dividing the eastern and western halves of the world a nd is very useful for n avigati on .It passes through Gree nwich, so Pin gyu had a photo take n sta nding on either side of the line.The last day she visited Karl Marx's statue in Highgate Cemetery. It seemed stra nge that the man who had developed munism should have lived and died in Lo ndon. Not only that, but he had worked in the famous readi ng room of the Librar y of the British Museum. Sadly the library had moved from its origi nal place in to ano ther buildi ng and the old readi ng room was gone. But she was thrilled by so many won derful treasures from differe nt cultures displayed in the museum. Wh en she saw many visitors enjoying look ing at the beautiful old Chin ese pots and other objects on show, she felt very proud of her coun try.The next day Pin gyu was leavi ng London for Win dsor Castle. "Perhaps I will see the Quee n?" she won dered as she fell asleep.必修5 Un it 3HRST IMPRESSIONSfrom your provioiK time period So I felr vc»ry nervous and uncercam at first Myfriend and guQ® Wang Pi ng. was very understanding and gave me some greentablets, which helped a lot.

人教版高中英语必修电子书篇一:高中英语人教版必修一全册课文内容电子版Unit 1 ANNE’S BEST FRIENDDo you want a friend whom you could tell everything to, like your deepest feelings and thoughts? Or are you afraid that your friend would laugh at you, or would not understand what you are going through? Anne Frank wanted the first kind, so she made her diary her best friend.Anne lived in Amsterdam in the Netherlands during World War II. Her family was Jewish so they had tohide or they would be caught by the German Nazis. She and her family hid away for nearly twenty-five months before they were discovered. During that time the only true friend was her diary. She said, “I don’t wantto set down a series of facts in a diary as mostpeople do, but I want this diary itself to be my friend, and I shall call my friend Kitty.” Now read how she felt after being in the hiding place sinceJuly 1942.Thursday 15th June, 1942Dear Kitty,I wondered if it is because I haven’t been able to be outdoors for so long that I’ve grown so crazy about everything to do with nature. I can well remember thatthere was a time when a deep blue sky, the song of the birds, moonlight and flowers could never have kept me spellbound. That’s changed since I came here.… For example, one evening when it was so warm, I stayed awake on purpose until half past eleven in order to have a good look at the moon by myself. But as the moon gave far too much light, I didn’t dare to open a window. Another time five months ago, I happened to be upstairs at dusk when the window was open. I didn’t go downstairs until the window had to be shut. The dark, rainy evening, the wind, the thundering clouds held me entirely in their power; it was the first time in a year and a half that I’d seen the night face to face…… Sadly … I am only able to l ook at nature through dirty curtains hanging before very dusty windows.It’s no pleasure looking through these any longer because nature is one thing that really must be experienced.Yours,AnneUnit 2 English around the worldThe road to modern EnglishAt the end of the 16th century, about five to seven million people spoke English. Nearly all of them lived in England. Later in the next century, people from England made voyages to conquer other parts of theworld and because of that, English began to be spoken in many other countries. Today, more people speak English as their first, second or foreign language than ever before.Native English speakers can understand each other even if they don’t speak the same kind of English. Look at this example:British Betty: Would you like to see my flat?American Amy: Yes. I’d like to e up to your apartment.So why has English changed over time? Actually, all languages change and develop when cultures meet and municate with each other. At first, the English spoken in England between about AD 450 and 1150 was very different from the English spoken today. It was based more on German than the English we speak at present. Then gradually between about AD 800 and 1150, English became less like German because those who ruled England spoke first Danish and later French. These new settlers eiched the English language and especiallyits vocabulary.So by the 1600’s Shakespeare was able to make use of a wider vocabulary than ever before. In 1620 some British settlers moved to America. Later in the 18th century some British people were taken to Australia too. English began to be spoken in both countries.Finally by the 19th century the language was settled. At that time two big changes in English spellinghappened: first Samuel Johnson wrote his dictionary and later Noah Webster wrote The America Dictionary of the English Language. The latter gave a separate identity to American English spelling.English now is also spoken as a foreign or second language in South Asia. For example, India has a very large number of fluent English speakers becauseBritain ruled India from 1765 to 1947. During that time English became the language for government and education. English is also spoken in Singapore and Malaysia and countries in Africa such as South Africa. Today the number of people learning English in Chinais increasing rapidly. In fact, China may have the largest number of English learners. Will Chinese English develop its own identity? Only time will tell.STANDARD ENGLISH AND DIALECTSWhat is standard English? Is it spoken in Britain, the US, Canada, Australia, India and New Zealand? Believe it or not, there is no such thing as standard English. This is because in the early days of radio, those who reported the news were expected to speak excellent English. However, on TV and the radio you will hear differences in the way people speak.When people use words and expressions different from “standard language”, it is called a dialect. American English has many dialects, especially the midwestern, southern, African American and Spanish dialects. Even in some parts of the USA, two peoplefrom neighboring towns speak a little differently. American English has so many dialects because people have e from all over the world.Geography also plays a part in making dialects. Some people who live in the mountains of the eastern USA speak with an older kind of English dialect. When Americans moved from one place to another, they took their dialects with them. So people from the mountains in the southeastern USA speak with almost the same dialect as people in the northwestern USA. The USA is a large country in which many different dialects are spoken.Although many Americans move a lot, they still recognize and understand each other’s dialects.Unit 3 JOURNEY DOWN THE MEKONGPART I THE DREAM AND THE PLANMy name is Wang Kun. Ever since middle school, mysister Wang Wei and I have dreamed about taking agreat bike trip. Two years ago she bought an expensive mountain bike and then she persuaded me to buy one. Last year, she visited our cousins, Dao Wei and Yu Hang at their college in Kunming. They are Dai and grew up in western Yunnan Province near the Lancang River, the Chinese part of the river that is calledthe Mekong River in other countries. Wang Wei soon got them interested in cycling too. After graduating from college, we finally got the chance to take a bike trip.I asked my sister, “Where are we going?” It was mysister who first had the idea to cycle along theentire Mekong River from where it begins to where it ends. Now she is planning our schedule for the trip.I am fond of my sister but she has one serious shorting. She can be really stubborn. Although she didn’t know the best way of getting to places, she insisted that she organize the trip properly. Now I know that the proper way is always her way. I kept asking her, “When are we leaving and when are we ing back?” I asked her whether she had looked at a map yet. Of course she hadn’t; my sister doesn’t care about details. So I told her that the source of the Mekong is in Qinghai Province. She gave me a determined look--the kind that said she would not change her mind. When I told her that our journey would begin at an altitude of more than 5,000 metres, she said itwould be an interesting experience. I know my sister well. Once she has made up her mind, nothing can change it. Finally, I had to give in.Several months before our trip, Wang Wei and I went to the library. We found a large atlas with good mapsthat showed details of world geography. From the atlas we could see that the Mekong River begins in a glacier on a mountain in Qinghai Province. At first the river is small and the water is clear and cold. Then it begins to move quickly. It bees rapids as it passes through deep valleys, travelling across western Yunnan Province. Sometimes the river bees a waterfall andenters wide valleys. We were both surprised to learn that half of the river is in China. After it leaves China and high altitude, the Mekong bees wide, brown and warm. As it enters Southeast Asia, its pace slows. It makes wide bends or meanders through low valleys to the plains where rice grows. At last, the river delta enters the South China Sea.PART II A NIGHT IN THE MOUNTAINSAlthough it was autumn, the snow was already beginning to fall in Tibet. Our legs were so heavy and cold that they felt like blocks of ice. Have you ever seen snowmen ride bicycles? That’s what we looked like! Along the way children dressed in long wool coats stopped to look at us. In the late afternoon we found it was so cold that our water bottles froze. However, the lakes shone like glass in the setting sun and looked wonderful. Wang Wei rode in front of me as usual. She is very reliable and I knew I didn’t need to encourage her. To climb the mountains was hard work but as we looked around us, we were surprised by the view. We seemed to be able to see for miles. At one point we were so high that we found ourselves cycling through clouds. Then we began going down the hills. It was great fun especially as it gradually became much warmer. In the valleys colourful butterflies flew around us and we saw many yaks and sheep eating green grass. At this point we had to change our caps, coats, gloves and trousers for T-shirts and shorts.In the early evening we always stop to make camp. We put up our tent and then we eat. After supper Wang Wei put her head down on her pillow and went to sleep but I stayed awake. At midnight the sky became clearer and the stars grew brighter. It was so quiet. There was almost no wind- only the flames of our fire for pany. As I lay beneath the stars I thought about how far we had already travelled.We will reach Dali in Yunnan Province soon, where our cousins Dao Wei and Yu Hang will join us. We can hardly wait to see them!Unit 4 A NIGHT THE EARTH DIDN’T SLEEPStrange things were happening in the countryside of northeast Hebei. For three days the water in the village wells rose and fell. Farmers noticed that the well walls had deep cracks in them. A smelly gas came out of the fields looking for places to hide. Fish jumped out of their bowls and ponds. At about 3:00 am on July 28, 1976, some people saw bright lights in the sky. The sound of planes could be heard outside the city of Tangshan even when no planes were in the sky. In the city, the water pipes in some buildings cracked and burst. But the one million people of the city, who thought little of these events, were asleep as usual that night.At 3:42 am everything began to shake. It seemed as if the world was at an end! Eleven kilometres directly below the city one of the greatest earthquakes of the20th century had begun. It was felt in Beijing, which is more than two hundred kilometres away. One-third of the nation felt it. A huge crack that was eight kilometres long and thirty metres wide cut across houses, roads and canals. Steam burst from holes inthe ground. Hard hills of rock became rivers of dirt. In fifteen terrible seconds a large city lay in ruins. The sufferings of the people was extreme. Two-thirdsofthem died or were injured during the earthquake. The number of people who were killed or seriously injured reached more than 400,000.But how could the survivors believe it was natural? Everywhere they looked nearly everything was destroyed. All of the city’s hospital, 75% of its factories and buildings and 90% of its homes were gone. Bricks covered the ground like red autumn leaves. No wind, however, could blow them away. Two dams fell and most of the bridges also fell or were not safe for travelling. The railway tracks were now useless pieces of steel. Tens of thousands of cows would never give milk again. Half a million pigs and millions of chickens were dead. Sand now filled the wells instead of water. People were shocked. Then, later that afternoon, another big quake which was almost asstrong as the first one shook Tangshan. Water, food, and electricity were hard to get. People began to wonder how long the disaster would last.All hope was not lost. Soon after the quakes, the army sent 150,000 soldiers to Tangshan to help the rescue workers. Hundreds of thousands of people were helped. The army organized teams to dig out those who were trapped and to bury the dead. To the north of the city, most of the 10,000 miners were rescued from the coal mines there. Workers built shelters for survivors whose homes had been destroyed. Fresh water was taken to the city by train, truck and plane. Slowly, thecity began to breathe again.UNIT 5 ELIAS’ STORYMy name is Elias. I am a poor black worker in South Africa. The time when I first met Nelson Mandela was a very difficult period of my life. I was twelve years old. It was in 1952 and Mandela was the black lawyerto whom I went for advice. He offered guidance to poor black people on their legal problems. He was generous with his time, for which I was grateful.I needed his help because I had very little education.I began school at six. The school where I studied for only two years was three kilometres away. I had to leave because my family could not continue to pay the school fees and the bus fare. I could not read orwrite well. After trying hard, I got a job in a gold mine. However, this was a time when one had got to have a passbook to live in Johannesburg. Sadly I did not have one because I was not born there, and I worried about whether I would bee out of work.The day when Nelson Mandela helped me was one of my happiest. He told me how to get the correct papers so I could stay in Johannesburg. I became more hopeful about my future. I never forgot how kind Mandela was. When he organized the ANC Youth League, I joined it as soon as I could. He said:“The last thirty years have seen the greatest number of laws stopping our rights and progress, until today we have reached a stage where we have almost no rights at all.”It was the truth. Black people could not vote or choose their leaders. They could not get the jobs they wanted. The parts of town in which they had to live were decided by white people. The places outside the towns where they were sent to live were the poorest parts of South Africa. No one could grow food there. In fact as Nelson Mandela said:“…we were put into a position in which we had either to accept we were less important, or fight the government.We chose to attack the laws. We first broke the law in a way which was peaceful; when this was not allowed…only then did we decided to answer violence with violence. ”As a matter of fact, I do not like violence…but in 1963 I helped him blow up some government buildings.It was very dangerous because if I was caught I could be put in prison. But I was happy to help because Iknew it would help us achieve our dream of making black and white people equal.THE REST OF ELIAS’ STORYYou cannot imagine how the name of Robben Island made us afraid. It was a prison from which no one escaped. There I spent the hardest time of my life. But when I got there Nelson Mandela was also there and he helped me. Mr Mandela began a school for those of us who had little learning. He taught us during the lunch breaks and the evenings when we should have been asleep. We read books under our blankets and used anything we could find to make candles to see the words. I became a good student. I wanted to study for my degree but I was not allowed to do that. Later, Mr Mandela allowed the prison guards to join us. He said they should not be stopped from studying for their degrees. They were not cleverer than me, but they did pass their exams. So I knew I could get a degree too. That made me feel good about myself.When I finished the four years in prison, I went to find a job. Since I was better educated, I got a job working in an office. However, the police found out and told my boss that I had been in prison for blowing up government buildings. So I lost my job. I did not work again for twenty years until Mr Mandela and the ANC came to power in 1994. All that time my wife and children hadto beg for food and help from relatives or friends. Luckily Mr Mandela remembered me and gave me a job taking tourists around my old prison on Robben Island.I felt bad the first time I talked to a group. All the terror and fear of that time came back to me. I remembered the beatings and the cruelty of the guards and my friends who had died. I felt I would not beable to do it, but my family encouraged me. They said that the job and the pay from the new South Africa government were my reward after working all my lifefor equal rights for the Blacks. So now I am proud to show visitors over the prison, for I helped to makeour people free in their own land.篇二:人教版高中英语必修课文以及译文必修1 第一单元ANNE’S BEST FRIENDDo you want a friend whom you could tell everything to, like your deepest feelings and thoughts?
