In this step, teacher should introduce how to write an advice letter first: Before writing an advice letter, we need to write an outline first.It will help you organize your ideas and present your information in a logical form.You will know what to write first and what should be included in it.Now please discuss and write an outline for the letter.Teacher may also show some writing tips to students: 1.You should think about your answers carefully and send your letter as soon as possible.2.You should write your letter in a comfortable tone and you can feel relaxed after reading it.3.You should avoid strong language that might discourage your reader.4.Give advice only on the subject you have been asked about.5.If you can not give advice, express your regret and suggest that someone else

would be in a better position to do so.Then, by following the tips and the outline they have just finished, students are asked to write the advice letter in about 8 minutes.Each group can choose one member to read the letter in the front of the class and answer any questions your classmates have about your letter.A Sample advice letter to the father: Dear Mr.Liu, Parent-teenager conflict is very common nowadays.We always believe there is a generation gap and teenagers are hard to deal with.That is because parents can not understand them and don’t know how they feel and what kind of life they want to have.As you said, your son refuses to do everything you ask him to do.My advice is that you’d better not force him to do anything that he doesn’t like.If you really want him to do something, you can tell him the importance and necessity of doing that at a proper time.He himself will decide whether to do it or not since he is a big boy now and he has his own idea.He insists on watching DVDs and listening to foreign music.In my opinion, if it is good for him, you can show interest in his hobbies although you don’t like it at all.Internet café is a very popular place now.I think online chatting, especially with his friends or classmates in his spare time is not a big problem so long as he can learn the subjects well at school.I’m sure it will work out fine if you can try understanding him.You should trust him and always communicate with him whenever you have the chance.I hope everything will be OK soon.Good luck!

Mr.Zhu A Sample advice letter to the son: Dear Liu Wei, I know your feeling and I can understand you.I was once such a boy as you and I had this kind of problems.At that time, I couldn’t understand my parents though they love me.You should believe your parents love you very much.You’d better always talk to your father that you love him too.Don’t get angry when your father doesn’t listen to you or even shouts at you.You can explain to him what you think later.Show that you are a big by now and you can make your own decisions.Surprise your father with a day spent together.Invite him to join you doing the thing you like.That way both of you can have fun.Have a talk with your father whenever you are free.After all, communication is the best way to improve your relationship.Only in this way can you understand each other’s ideas and thoughts.Best wishes，Mr.Zhu Practice If time permits, teachers can give students more practice.The following is designed for the students to practise their spoken English, to consolidate what they have learnt, to enlarge their knowledge and to improve other abilities in learning

Reading 秘密和谎言

亲爱的安妮：我觉得我的朋友汉娜背叛了我。从小学起我俩就是最好的朋友，几乎每天都在一起。因为我们成绩好，喜爱学习，其他同学有时会说我俩没趣，但我们喜欢那样。我们都很用功，成绩在学校一直很优秀。

星期一那天，我们搞了一次突袭性的数学小测验。我以为它非常简单，一点也不担心考试成绩。小测验之后，我说起话来听上去一定洋洋自得，说它实在太简单了，我肯定能取得好成绩。第二天下课后，我的数学老师却告诉我，我得了全班最低分！我感到非常羞愧，这么简单的小测验没能及格，我真是笨极了！

后来，我假装很开心，但汉娜还是觉察到哪儿有点不对劲。午餐前，我们一起去女子洗手间时，我承认考得有多么糟糕。我求她不要告诉任何人，她说她会替我保守秘密。

但是第二天，当我走进数学课教室时，我就注意到同学们在盯着我看。当我坐下时，我惊讶地发现桌子上有一张纸，上面写着：“笨蛋萨拉得了D等！”我难过得想哭。我想汉娜一定是在答应过我不会告诉任何人之后将我的成绩告诉了同学们。大家一定都在背后嘲笑我！

我非常生气，径直走到汉纳跟前，告诉她我们不再是朋友了，因为她不能信守诺言。她很不安，发誓说她没有告诉任何人。但是，能看到成绩的人只有老师和学生自己。她说一定是有人在洗手间偷听我们的谈话，但我不相信她的解释。我想我永远也不会真正地原谅她。现在，我失去了我最好的朋友。我该怎么办呢？ 你真诚的，萨拉

陷入困境的友谊

亲爱的安妮： 我叫安德鲁。我17岁，碰到了一个难题。我最好的朋友马修已经停止跟我说话了。我们从小就是好朋友，一起在学校足球队踢球。上个星期，我们与另一所学校的球队有一场非常重要的比赛。那支球队很棒，我们必须集中精力。我下决心一定要赢得比赛，但马修踢得很糟糕。他跟不上比赛的节奏。由于他的漫不经心，我们输了球赛。

后来，我非常生他的气，并告诉他说我觉得他没有尽全力。他也被惹火了，说如果他的球技不如我那可不是他的错，还说我不该以这种方式和他说话。然后我们俩都开始冲着对方大喊大叫，结果我们的喊叫变成了可怕的争执。他指责我做了一些非常不好的事情，只是为了伤害我。我感到很内疚，因为我也说了一些残酷无情的话，但我不喜欢看到我们队输球。足球对我很重要，但我们的友谊也同样很重要。

虽然我们在教室里是邻座，但自从吵架之后，他便没有和我说过话。这实在令人尴尬。他通常开朗外向，但最近一直沉默寡言，显得很难受。他说的那些话也伤害了我，但他并未向我道歉。昨天，我看见他和另一个男孩彼得说话，我不禁想知道他是不是想让彼得取代我做他最好的朋友。我把吵架的事告诉了我哥哥，但他说马修只是太敏感，可能还有一点嫉妒，因为我身强体壮，足球踢得很好。他说我最好另找一个朋友。我该怎么办呢？ 你真诚的 安德鲁 Project

青少年的友谊观

我的朋友罗伯特有一个双胞胎妹妹叫阿曼达。尽管他们相处融洽，但阿曼达和她朋友的一些事还是让罗伯特感到困惑。他无法理解女孩子怎么会聊天那么长时间。例如，有时他离开公寓去踢足球时，阿曼达和她的朋友沙伦就坐在沙发上聊天。当他三个半小时后回来时，她们仍然坐在沙发上，继续聊着同样的话题。一天，罗伯特抑制不住好奇，问阿曼达她们聊了什么，她回答说：“我们是最好的朋友。我们什么都聊——电影明星、流行歌曲、食谱等等，所有的事！”

男孩和女孩对待友谊有着不同的态度。女孩之间的友谊通常建立在共同的情感和互相支持之上，而男孩之间的友谊则以共同的活动或兴趣为基础。对于与密友们分享感情这件事，一个男孩会更加谨慎。而一个女孩的密友则可能会迫不及待地向她吐露自己生活中发生过的一些事。

全球范围的许多研究表明女孩比男孩享有更多的友谊。事实上，许多青春期的男孩说不出一个最好的朋友。当被问起时，他们在回答前往往会犹豫一下：“最好的朋友？我没有想过这个问题。我忙于家庭作业。我有很多朋友，很难说出哪一位是我最好的朋友。”

被问到过这个问题的女孩往往能毫不犹豫地回答：“最好的朋友？当然有。我们分享的东西很多。我们经常一起做很多事，比如聊天和逛街。”

我们必须认识到男孩共享活动，而女孩分享情感。无论男孩和女孩友谊的基础是什么，他们所看重的朋友身上的品质似乎是一样的。所要记住的重要一点是：它们二者均是友谊。我们在生活中都需要朋友。

友谊对我意味着什么? 当确定生活中最重要的是什么时，有些人选择金钱，而别的人则选择诸如安全感和舒适度之类的东西。然而，对我而言，生活中最重要的东西是友谊。我不能想像没有它。

友谊意味着不孤独。有一次去我独自一人旅行，途经北京去我祖父母家。由于我要乘坐的下一趟火车要到晚上才开，我有一天的观光时间。起初，我并不介意自己一个人，但后来看见所有的游客一起拍照，我开始感到难过。最终我回到火车站，在候车室里度过了当天余下的时光。如果没有同伴分享，生活就索然无味。友谊意味着有人可以依靠。去年，我把书包忘在了无轨电车上，丢了所有的期末考试的笔记。你可以想像我有多慌乱。幸运的是，我最好的朋友珍妮让我复印了她的笔记，我复习时用了它们。多亏她的帮助，我才得以通过考试。友谊意味着忠诚于他人。拥有朋友的最佳途径就是做一个朋友。因为我是一个朋友，我就要学会有耐心和宽容。有一次我与珍妮吵架，她说了一些有关我的残酷无情的闲话。尽管我的感情受到了伤害，我还是原谅了她。后来她向我道歉。通过这一事件，我们俩都变成了更好的人。然而，如果当初我终止了我们的友谊，那我们俩都会一无所得。

总之，当我们年老时回顾我们生活时，我们会记住什么呢？ 我们会记住我们买过的东西或者是去过的地方吗？

不，我们会记住那些我们爱过的人和爱过我们的人。我们会记住我们的朋友。

Unit2 Reading 经济还是环境——我们必须做出抉择吗? 电视节目主持人：詹姆斯·朗

发言：林水清，绿色协会发言人

钱利伟，企业发展咨询顾问

詹姆斯．朗：各位上午好。令天辩论的问题是“经济还是环境——我们必须做出抉择吗?”今天的嘉宾是来自绿色协会的林水清女士和企业发展咨询顾问钱利伟先生。今天辩论的程序与往常不一样。林水清女土首先发言，时间为三分钟。按下来是钱利伟先生发言，时间也是三分钟。之后我们将展开自由讨论。如果大家有什么问题或评论，可以利用这一时间将它们表达出来。

林水清：大家上午好!我今天首先要谈的是化学废物如何破坏着世界上的大片区域。许多地方已经被毁，许多动植物已经死亡。这很糟糕。工厂排放出大量有害化学物质。工厂生产造成的废物进入大气，使我们生病。其他种类的废物流入水中，杀死河流中及海洋中的生物。

捕捞船也在毁灭大量的海洋生物。这些捕捞船捕捞大量的鱼，而不留时间给它们产卵，这将导致我们食用的鱼的数同越来越小。

一方面我们在毁灭环境，另一方面我们继续生育越来越多的人口，这些人口需要更多的土地居住，也需要更多的食物食用!与1800年的人口相比，世界人口数量已经增长了六倍。现在约有70亿人!

我们有责任努力削减生产，减少制造和购买的东西的数量。

我们造出来的垃圾数量正在成为一个大问题。我们有必要更多地考虑循环利用垃圾。好的做法将是增加回收利用的东西的数量，并教给人们不损害环境的生活方式。我们甚至可以借此创造出更多的就业机会，帮助我们的国家在保护环境的同时更好地发展。

谢谢!

钱利伟：

女士们、先生们，上午好。谢谢你，林女士。你的演讲很有意思。显然，你非常担心我们的环境的现状。作为企业发展咨询顾问，我常常被视为是反对环保的。一想到工厂，人们就会想到滚滚的浓烟或者向河流倾泻化学废物的管道。他们会联想到贪婪的商人躲避社会责任，一味关心金钱。人们常常认为经济发展对环境有害，但这未必是正确的。

我在这里要说的是，与很多环境顾问一起工作之后，我知道健康的环境和经济发展并存是有可能的。许多工厂和企业控制自己生产的污染总量，诚心地投入资金去修复它们破坏的环境。这些工厂的经营者非常关心环境。我们应该停止将这些公司和商人视作敌人，而应给他们以更多的赞誉。

林女士建议为了保护环境我们应该削减我们所生产的东西的数量。我不同意这个观点，因为那样的话，就业机会将减少。我认为人类比鱼类和树木更加重要。

然而，我非常赞同我们应该利用回收材料制造更多的东西，减少原材料的使用，因为原材料的供应正变得越来越紧张。我们需要更有效的法律来保护环境，但同时让国家得到发展。这包括控制伐木量和捕捞量。这可能会让木材和海产品价格上涨，但是为某些东西支付更高的价钱并不总是坏事。我问过周围的人，发现许多人都愿意支付稍高一些的价钱来购买环保产品。

最后，那些污染环境的工厂应该缴纳更高的税。如果你破坏环境，你就应该为此付出更多的环境维护费用。

谢谢大家!

詹姆斯．朗：现在是自由讨论时间„„ Project保护长江

作为世界上第三长的河流，长江的环境问题已经引起了国内外的关注。飞速的经济发展和入口 增长意味着取自长江的水量不断上涨，而排l口J到长江中的废物也在不断增加。这对依赖长江用水的 人来说是个不好的消息，对生活在江中或沿岸的大量鱼类和野生生物来说也是个不好的消息。

许多人已经认识到保护长江的重要性，他们已经成立组织和设立项目，来解决这个问题。例如，绿色江河组织教育人们，让他们了解保护这条大河的重要性。该组织还监视长江，阻止非法捕捞。非法捕捞已经威胁到野生动物的数量。

政府的两个特别项目也在实施中。第一个项目是水土保持项目，启动干1989年。这个项目使得 农民退耕还林或退耕还草。这个项目已经取得成功，因为它有效地改善了当地的环境和江边的土地 情况。

第二个项目是白鳍豚自然保护区。白鳍豚是世界上最稀有的动物之一。由于长江的污染，中国 白鳍豚的数量急剧下降。尽管科学家还在期盼着白鳍豚不会绝种，但人们最后一次看到白鳍豚已经 是在好几年前了。

要解决有关长江的所有问题，我们还有很长的段路要走。但是，人们终于认识到他们有责任 来保护这条大河。因此，长江的环境正在改善。中国政府和人民为保护这条深受人们热爱的河流所 做出的努力会在未来得到赏识。

气候变化和低碳生活

毫无疑问，最近几年世界气候一直在发生着变化。许多人将这一变化归咎于二氧化碳等气体。动物和人类在呼吸时会排出二氧化碳。然而，人类的许多其他活动也会释放出二氧化碳。每当物体 燃烧时，碳就会排放进大气中。小汽车和其他车辆燃烧汽油来发动引擎，发电站通常靠燃烧诸如煤 和油之类的燃料来发电。因此，我们消耗的汽油和电能越多，我们释放出的碳就越多。

我们能做的有助于解决这一问题的方法之一一就是尽量步行或使用自行车。尽管我们呼吸时产生 碳，但所排出的碳要比小汽车产生的碳少很多。当然，有时候我们也需要长途旅行。这种情况下，与私家车或出租车相比，公共交通工具如公共汽车和地铁是更好的选择。如果你必须开车，独自出 行永远不是最佳选择——你应该试着找人与你同行。

在家你应该尽可能少地消耗能量。不用电灯以及其他电器时，应该关掉。由于工厂消耗大量能 源，也排放出大量碳化气体，尽量多地回收利用是非常重要的。尤其是金属产品和纸质产品需要消 耗大量能源来生产，因此你应该找到重复使用这些产品的方法，而不是把它们扔掉。

最后但并不是最不重要的一点是，你可以植树，因为树能够吸收空气中的二氧化碳，释放氧气。种植一棵小树很便宜也很简单，但二十多年之后，当你看到它们都长成大树时，会有一种满足感，因为你知道自己为帮助解决气候变化问题尽了你的一份力。

Unit3 Reading 完美的复制品

科学家最近宣布，他们已经成功克隆出第一个人类胚胎，这在全球范围内引起了沸沸扬扬的辩论，许多人为此感到震惊。一方面，一些科学家指出，如果你能够克隆人类胚胎，那你就可以生产出能够拯救人类生命的宝贵的组织和器官了。另一方面，包括一些科学家在内的很多人持不同意见，他们担心人类用这种方式干涉自然，那就可能离制造一个现实生活中的弗兰肯斯坦怪物不远了。

克隆就是利用动物或植物的细胞来制造一个一摸一样的动物或植物的复制品。第一个成功由成年动物细胞克隆出来的动物是一个叫多利的羊。这只母羊出生在1996年，但2003年初就死了，比正常情况下羊的寿命要短得多。多利羊出生的时候，很多人十分气愤，因为他们觉得克隆会在动物世界里制造出更多的疾病。但是从总体上说，科学家还是因为其杰出的科学突破而得到了人们的称赞。

创造出多利的苏格兰科学家伊恩·威尔莫特在得知有些科学家正在考虑克隆人的消息后感到非常震惊。尽管伊恩·威尔莫特研究克隆，但他的目的根本不是要制造人类的复制品。相反，他认为应当将研究精力集中在制造最终能够用来治疗癌症等疾病的组织和器官上。但也有人认为，怀着摧毁它们的意图来克隆人类胚胎，这是对人类生命的不尊重。

尽管克隆的这种用途引发了人们的很多忧虑，但对不能生育的41岁女推销员伊·威尔逊来说却是个好消息。“我现在迫不及待地向要个孩子，”她说。“我不想收养别人的孩子，我也不想借用别的女人的卵子——我想要一个跟我在基因上又关系的孩子，如果有机会，我明天就想要一个克隆的孩子。”

尽管克隆人类胚胎在很多国家属于非法，有些科学家已经开始加紧研究，以便降生一个克隆的人类婴儿。一个名叫韦里·诺安蒂诺里的意大利医生就是该研究领域中的一个领军人物，他宣传自己想成为克隆人类的第一人。

在中国，科学家则把精力集中在克隆动物以及干细胞，以便用于医学研究。中国已经成功克隆出了牛和山羊，并在继续研究利用克隆技术造福人类的各种途径。

尊敬的编辑：

我坚信克隆人类是不道德的。如果我们干涉自然，我们将不得不应付各种后果。谁会知道发生什么呢？我们可能会制造出一个怪物，甚至是一个最终有一天反过来取代我们人类的超人类物种。到那时，人类生命将不再是独一无二的了，它将不过是一个供买卖的产品而已。

人类正在耗尽地球资源。毋庸置疑，我们应该少生孩子，以减少地球上的人口数量，二不是克隆出更多的人。

我为那种不能生育的女性感到遗憾，但我想指出，世界上还有很多没有父母的儿童，如果有一个妈妈他们会很高兴的。波琳·卡特 尊敬的编辑：

我想点评一下你们发表的文章“完美的复制品”。我认为，你们文中所提及的科学进展很是神奇。我完全同意克隆人类。毕竟，好几个世纪以来科学家一直在挑战道德问题。我们为什么要选择这个时间来组织他们呢？

根据我个人的观点，克隆将会彻底改变我的生活。七年前，我10岁的女儿死于心脏病。她很漂亮、活泼、聪明。我每天都在思念她。如果我有机会，我会立刻克隆出她来，这样我就能够重新和她在一起了。科林·贾克

Project人类与自然

长期以来，由于人类的漠不关心，我们的环境遭受了严重破坏。人类因农业、渔业、狩猎以及旅游业已经损害了自然。我们在海里修建新的通道，在陆地建造工厂，产生的化学废物污染环境，这些都变本加厉地在破坏地球。如果我们继续这样做，总有一天我们会毁掉我们赖以生存的星球。

然而，如果我们只关注保护自然，人类就要受苦。并非一切对自然最好的对人类也是最好的。会有人说为了保护自然就应该停止经济发展吗?根据有些人的观点，我们只是在做人类一直在做的 事情--利用自然满足我们自己的需求。还有·些人则争辩说这样的思维会带来大灾难，除非我们 开始关注周围的环境，懂得清洁的环境为什么对我们大家有益。

在破坏自然、用竭自然资源数十年之后，许多发达国家现在更关注保护自然，而不是发展或破 坏自然。但是，许多贫穷国家必须致力于满足其人民的日常需要。为了实现这一日标，他们正在飞 速消耗自然资源。他们还没有像许多富裕国家那样，认识到随心所欲消耗自然资源的后果。他们往 往没有意识到他们的选择有害环境。如果他们毁掉了成千上万亩的雨林，但却使他们的人民有了更

好的收入，他们是否应该受到责备呢?世界上发达国家和发展中国家需要通力合作，确保人们过上富裕快乐的生活，而周边的环境也不会遭受破坏。

这不应该是人类获胜、自然失败的问题。人们只有保护自然才能真正地获胜。毕竟，食物需要 在健康自然的环境系统中生长，我们都需要呼吸干净的空气，饮用纯净的水。找到对人类、对万物 皆有利的解决方案，这是人类的职责。

转基因食品：希望还是威胁?

近年来，遗传学研究有了巨大的进步。由于这些进步，通向前所未有的科技之门打开了。当许 多人为这些新技术而兴奋不已时，这些技术也让其他人害怕。转基因食品就是最好的例子。

可以通过两种方法改变动植物基因。第一种方法是在动植物原有的DNA中插入新的物质，这样 可以让动物或植物具有本质上没有的特性。第二种方法是移除动植物DNA原有的某些物质，这样可 以去除掉动植物原本具有的但人们不想要的一些特性。

转基因研究的一个目的就是生产可以让我们更加健康的食品。到目前为止，这项技术已用十植 物基因改造，基凶改造后的植物能更好地抵御虫害和疾病。转基因食品的支持者认为转基因植物更 加健康，产量也更高。虽然现在也有转基因动物研究，如对猪的研究，但目前还没有转基因肉类销 售。

人们提出了许多关干转基因食品的问题。没有人真正知道转基因食品是否可供人或动物安全食 用。科学家承认需要对转基因食品做更多的测试。日前的研究仅局限于增加生产利润，而不是确保 转基因食品的安全。因此食用转基因食品有可能是危险的。

还有一个问题是转基因植物是否对环境安全。转基因作物生长在户外，因而它们成为食物链的。一部分——昆虫以及其它动物会吃这些作物或者它们的果实，而这些昆虫和动物又会被其他动物吃 掉。没有人知道转基因物质会给食物链带来什么影响。

由于没有人确切地知道转基因食品是否安全，许多国家在是否允许生产转基因食品问题上犹豫 不决，他们宁愿对这项新技术持谨慎的态度。
