2.每年送来6,000多个记录，但它们不能都出版。然而编辑们记下这些记录，并以其他方式继续了解情况。这些记录被分成不同的目录。《吉尼斯世界大全》关于人体的篇章、令人惊叹的伟绩篇章、自然世界篇章、科学技术篇章、艺术和媒体篇章、现代社会篇章、旅游和交通篇章以及体育和娱乐篇章。你可以了解到年纪最大的人是一个活了122年164天的妇女，最长的胡须长达1.6米，最长的毒蛇有5.71米长。书中还有令人不可思议的记录，如一个英国人头顶重159.6公斤的小汽车长达33秒钟。

6.任何人都能努力创记录。然而，有些记录这书不接受。任何对自己或他人有危险的记录都是不允许收入的，如果你想创记录，你应该首先与吉尼斯记录大全联系，编辑将判定你的想法是否合适，然后将你所需要申请记录的规则和表格寄给你。以后如果一切顺利的话，吉尼斯官员将来检验你有尝试。如果能成功，吉尼斯官员会证实你的记录，你会得到《吉尼斯世界记录大全》的证书，说明你是世界记录保持者。

第二Unit 2 reaching out across the ocean跨越大洋

贸易和好奇常常构成了人类巨大努力的基础。对于早起文明的人们来说，世界地图是一个困惑。马可波罗的故事激励了可里斯托弗.哥伦布和其他的欧洲探险家去探索能到达遥远、富饶的亚洲大陆的海上航线。然而，之前很久，勇敢的商人是真正的西部海洋的探险者。

众所周知，很早很早以前，非洲就与印度和红海文明有联系。中国的丝绸沿丝绸之路运往印度、中东和罗马去交换香料和玻璃——这些在中国根本没人知道的东西。沿印度洋海岸也有丝绸贸易。锡兰，凭借其中心位置，成为中国商人会见阿拉伯商人和了解西方先进科技文化的地方。因此，汉朝人了解非洲并且有书籍描述了红海和非洲沿岸国家。公元97年，甘英，一位中国大使，从陆路到东罗马并且把一位非洲国王所赠的礼物——犀牛角带回到洛阳。在以后的几百年间，索马里王国以及非洲沿海的岛屿发展成为世界贸易中心，主要经营象牙、香料、犀牛角、贝壳、动物皮毛和糖。这些物品远销到阿拉伯国家、埃及、希腊、罗马、印度、锡兰和中国的商人手中。这些阿拉伯人与非洲海岸国家的接触未后来一位中国人和黑人的会谈准备了条件。公元751年，中国的旅行家——杜环被阿拉伯军队所俘虏。他逃跑了，在经历了阿拉伯国家的长途跋涉之后，于公元762年乘小船回到祖国。回国后，他写了《经行记》，讲诉了中亚、阿拉伯以及非洲国家的情况。在十一世纪，非洲人曾几次通过海路到达宋朝王宫。这是非洲人开始了解中国的一次大发展。在非洲发现的最早 亚洲文化遗产也是从这一时期开始的。一个小青铜狮子塑像已经在尚加的索马里城发现了。还没有类似的东西在东非被发现。中国和非洲几个世纪的接触让双方知道了彼此的存在，但当时还没有精确的地图描述印度洋周围的国家。到了15世纪除，召开了一次大型会议的时机已经成熟。东非沿岸城市正鼎盛时期。而在东方，中国在一个新的朝代的统治下也繁荣起来了。明朝政府拥有一只强大的海军并且也有发挥这只海军作用的想法。从1405年到1433年，7艘大型的珠宝商船到东方进行贸易和探险航行。在郑和的带领下，这个船队从中国南海出发，跨越印度洋到达红海口，然后继续向南，结果发现了非洲东海岸。郑和常常被成为“中国的哥伦布”。郑和增进了和非洲东部海岸国家的联系。非洲国王送给明朝皇帝一个皇室的礼物：两只长颈鹿。这个精美的礼物和与非洲王室的接触令中国人对非洲如此好奇，以至于郑和给那个国王和别的非洲国家送信，邀请他们派大使并在明朝首都——北京开办大使馆。这些非洲国王很慷慨，他们给明朝皇帝送来了斑马、长颈鹿、贝壳、大象象牙和犀牛角药品。作为往来，明朝皇帝给他们送去了金子、香料、丝绸和各种别的礼物。这种礼物的交换的象征意义远远重于这些物品价值本身。通过和这个船队的贸易，非洲国王开始表示对中国皇帝的友谊。这个船队在结束探险之前或许是为了经济原因进行了几次远征。短期内，中国成为海上霸主。1433年以后，明朝意识到国内存在着巨大的机遇和挑战。

Unit 3 the portrait of a nation

一个国家的描述现代的澳大利亚是由六个州和两大区组成的：西澳洲、南澳州、昆士州、新南威尔士州、维多利亚州、塔斯马尼亚州，澳大利亚首都区和北部区。澳大利亚有很多大洋环绕着：西边有印度洋，南边有南印度洋，东北部是太平洋。澳大利亚的最大城市是悉尼，但是首都是堪培拉，堪培拉位于悉尼和墨尔本之间。澳大利亚的国旗未英国国旗图案并带有一颗最大的七角星。七角星中的六个角象征组成澳大利亚联邦的六个州，第七个角代表联邦区（北部地区和首都直辖区）。国旗上其他小星代表南十字星座（是南天小星座之一，星座虽小，但明亮的星很多）——那是一组映在南方天空的星星，人们可以借助它们找到南极。

最初的澳大利亚人

澳大利亚是一个古老大陆上的年轻的国家。澳大利亚最早的居民是土著居民和托雷斯海峡的岛上居民。这些人群的祖先早在五万年前就到了澳洲而且创造了复杂的社会。他们的文化发展很快，而且他们与非洲人及其他一些邻近地区有强大的连结。一些澳大利亚土著人仍然过着和他们的祖先一样的生活方式而其他的一些则生活在城市里、城镇上和农村。

一个罪犯的国家？

七世纪，欧洲探险者开始到达这块大陆。西班牙人、葡萄牙人、荷兰人和后来的英国船只到达了塔斯马尼亚州的北海岸和西海岸。1770连，詹姆斯。库克船长进行了一次科学考察旅行，声称这个大陆的东海岸属于不列颠王国。后来美国独立战争使得英国不能向北美输送囚犯，澳大利亚也就被选为一个新的囚犯和罪犯流放地。1788年，第一批流放犯人的11艘船到达澳大利亚。英国总督登陆的日期是1月26日，也就是现在的澳大利亚日。在随后的80年里，大约有16万囚犯被流放到澳大利亚。这些新来的移民改变了这里的管理方式，引进了对澳大利亚生态系统有害的动植物。结果，原始澳大利亚受到了伤害。很多土著人和岛上居民被剥夺了土地搬走了。

另一个新大陆：一个国家的诞生

二十世纪早期，澳大利亚和十八世纪的美国一样：她是一个没有统治阶级的“新世界”。1901年，澳大利亚联邦组成了。这个机构管理着规定人都是平等自由的六个州，解释他们自己的人权，描述新的政府。当地的土著人和非欧洲人不能享有平等的权利。直到很多年后，澳大利亚才学会了尊重土著人并且承认一个不同社会的重要性。

第一次世界大战对澳大利亚有很大的影响。战后，这个国家经历了社会和经济的动荡不安局面，遭受了二十世纪三十年代的萧条。第二次世界大战以后，澳大利亚开始把自己变成了一个和今天一样的现代化国家。经济增长了，澳大利亚从移民中受益匪浅。在二次世界大战后的五十年里，大约200这个国家的人民迁到了澳大利亚。在二十世纪六十年代后期，这个国家也开始改变对待当地土著人的态度，政府通过了法律来加强当地土著人和岛上居民的权利并且改善他们的生活条件。

讲澳大利亚语言？一切良好！

英语是澳大利亚的官方语言。澳大利亚英语在发音与英国英语和美国英语不同，其中，在澳大利亚用的一些词汇与你在英语课堂上学的完全不同。澳大利亚人喜欢他们的语言并喜欢用它开玩笑。“No worries”在澳大利亚语中意为”everything is OK”.“mate”通常意为“friend”或”companion”,但可以跟任何人说。“Sheila”是“女子”，“outback”是指“未开垦的土地”，“billabong”是干河道，uni是大学，而go walk about 则指到灌木丛中闲逛。而一些土著人的语言已经不被人所知，人们正在努力去保护和记录他们说留下的。大概澳大利亚英语最著名的例子可能就是客人到澳大利亚一定会听到的友好的“G’day mate”.第四

一个科学的诞生

十八世纪以前，植物学只不过是医学的一个分支。直到那时，医生和外科医生们大都在研究药草。另一些人尝试按植物种类分类，但是突破性的进展来自卡尔.林尼厄斯的工作。在林尼厄斯确立这个系统之前，要说明植物之间的关系是一个复杂而陌生的事情。给植物以双名这个观点并不新，但是名字不能真实地被固定和被接受。一些科学家根据果实的形状以及开花与否把植物分成药草和树状物。但是林尼厄斯以家族进行分类的观点是独特的。在他的系统中，他是基于花中雄性和雌性的排列而进行不同种类的鉴别的。结果，像桃子、梨这样的果实尽管第一眼看上去不同，而事实上是相关的

林尼厄斯的系统很快征服了世人。1759年，林尼厄斯的学生丹尼尔.索兰德去了英国，以便进一步发展这个系统。索兰德在伦敦与约瑟夫.班克斯结成了终生好友，约瑟夫后来邀请他参加了自己的“奋力号”船的植物考察队，那是在1768年。

约瑟夫出生在一个特权的家庭梨，他是一位富有家庭的儿子。当他的父亲于1761年去世时，班克斯只有十八岁。像处于他那样位置的很多年轻人都愿意过一个非常舒适的生活，但是班克斯却渴望知识。尽管他很富有，但他谋求在科学上有一番成就。1766年，他第一次旅行去研究野生植物。他的第二次探险是随着詹姆斯.库克到太平洋去的伟大航行。

1768年，英国皇家海军指定詹姆斯.库克为“奋力号“船的船长，带领皇家学会成员去塔希替岛远征。国家库克船长接到的指示，这次探险有三个目标。最主要的目的是研究横过太阳的金星。这将会给天文学家们提供一个机会来研究地球和太阳之间的距离。第二，是对在探险过程中观察到的动植物的生命进行记录、分类和描述。第三，库克船长接到秘密指令，搜找不知名的南方大陆。

因为天文学是一个重要的科学分支，因此英国政府赞助了天文学部分所有的设备和经费。因为英国政府不为植物学这种新兴的科学领域出资，25岁的约瑟夫.班克斯不得不自己支付了约10000英镑来进行这次考察探险。

在他们的三年航行探险中，约瑟夫.班克斯不仅研究、描述了他所发现的新植物，而且他还调查了一些新的经济物种：在英国和世界其他地区生长其谷物能够被卖的植物。约瑟夫.班克斯是第一位大规模的把植物从一个大陆移到另一个大陆的人，用这些进口的东西来帮助发展当地的经济。有些植物像可可、大麻和茶以这种方式传遍全球。

“奋力号”探险船于1771年返回英国。这次航行是一个伟大的胜利。得到了令人惊奇的发现：惊奇的新大陆、文化、动植物等。在那之后，库克船长又进行了两次环世界旅行，但是约瑟夫.班克斯再也没有参加另一次旅行。然而，班克斯参加了其他的一些工作如：非洲和澳大利亚的殖民地的探险。1788年，班克斯被选为皇家协会的主席，在这个位置上他一直干了42年。在这些年里，班克斯帮助把皇家花园变成了一个世界上最大的植物园。他在植物和农业方面积聚了大量的知识。在种草莓时，班克斯采用了早已废弃的在果实下铺稻草的方法来降低用水量。他还建了一个温室来试验种菠萝。就是约瑟夫.班克斯使英国皇家植物园成了一个科学经济研究中心

第四篇：基于话题进行高三英语课文复习

基于话题进行高三英语课文复习----2010高考英语第一轮

瑞安四中高三英语备课组 执笔人 黄剑茹

2009年的高考中，我校高三毕业班学生的英语成绩无论是文科还是理科都取得了优异的成绩。但是成绩属于过去，希望在于明年。新的高三备课组秉承一贯的优秀作风，面临压力，接受挑战，致力于提高教育教学质量。今天我代表瑞安市四中高三英语备课组主要谈两点：过去成功的经验和现在的做法。

一、过去成功的经验(一)思想重视，方向明确。

高三年级是学校教学的主阵地，高考是牵动千家万户的大事。学校领导一直把高三工作当作学校的重中之重，对高三给予极大的关注。瑞安市教研室对高三的复习多次进行调研指导，促进了教学工作。

（二）积极进取，精诚团结。

我们学校生源一般，高三备课组老师制定了切实可行的“提高课堂效率，优化课内外练习，落实基础检测，促进能力发展”的工作方针。他们积极参加各类教研活动，获取信息并吸收兄弟学校的经验。在每周的集体备课时间，八位老师都会精心讨论。从单元和课时教学目标、重难点，到每节课的练习和家庭作业，无不考虑周全，细而又细。因为只有这样，通过优化课堂结构，提高课堂教学效率，精讲结合精练，才能保证在完成教学任务的前提下，确保教学质量。

（三）学生刻苦，善于学习。

我们上届大部分学生刻苦学习，努力上进，班级学习风气浓厚。

09年高考结束了，我们要学习上届高三备课组的成功经验，在接下来的一年中做到：认真研究考情生情，稳中求进；努力探究新措施、新办法，集体攻关。

二、现在的做法

（一）复习计划的制定——认真研究考情生情，稳中求进

要想搞好高三英语的备考复习工作，就要有一条明确的复习思路，有一套系统、完整、科学、实用的复习计划，并且能够根据各阶段的复习效果不断地进行反思、调整和顺利地实施。复习思路的确定和复习计划的制定都必须符合高考的考情和学生的学情。从暑假上课开始，我们就制定出了本学期的复习计划。计划的指导思想是:一轮复习要坚持知能并举，既要系统巩固基础知识，又要重视读写基本能力的训练提高。基础知识的复习要把重点放在知识梳理和强化薄弱环节、解决重点疑难问题上。复习中要调动和发挥学生的积极性和主动性，重视自学，对教材的处理要简明扼要，突出重点。

(二)复习计划的落实——努力探究新措施、新办法，集体攻关

新课程理念下的外语课堂教学，提出了“创设以学生为主体，以教师为主导的和谐互动的外语课堂”，而对于高三英语学科的复习备考而言，教师的主导地位显得尤为重要，教师的科学的指导和精辟的归纳，不仅能在客观上提高学生的复习效率，更有助于激发学生的信心和学习热情，提高学生的主观能动性。本届高三英语备课组共计8名英语老师，中青的组合带来了阵容优势。为了更好地落实复习计划，真正做到“资源共享”；同时又能促进备课组教研氛围，发挥备课组的实体作用和团队精神，在借鉴和学习以往高三教学经验的基础上，本届高三英语组在复习策略、集体备课、质量分析和推进落实复习计划等四方面采取了尝试性的新举措：

1、复习策略“重基础，求实效”

针对近年来高考英语试题难度降低的走势和本届高三学年学生层次参差不齐的特点，在遵循和借鉴以往三轮复习策略（复习词汇和语法、专题训练、实战模拟)的基础上，我们摈弃了盲目求速度、加练习的“题海战术”，我和组里的张飞莲、叶玲俐两位老师组成一个课题组，在第一轮复习中对教材进行重组，以话题模块组织课文复习。

传统英语复习课多以基础知识和语法为主线，以“讲授-操练-反馈”为主要教学方式，再加上大量的高考适应性训练题。我认为，在高三英语课文复习中我们可以不拘泥于原来的单元教学，可以以话题为中心，将内容相近的文章组合在一起，这样既为任务型教学提供便利，又能提高复习效率。我们尝试打破课本分册顺序和单元顺序，按话题模块重组现在教材的全部课文，来进行第一阶段的复习。所谓话题模块，是指“几个相近或相关的话题整合成一个高一层次的话题单元”。按照《考试说明》上介绍的模块项目，我们把课文分成“人物介绍与个人情况”、“ 友谊与人际关系”、“ 旅游和交通”等12个模块，同一模块集中起来进行复习。以话题为单位，可以更有效地复习课文中的语言知识，学习文章的文化思想，内容和语篇逻辑结构，培养阅读技能，提高写作能力。12个话题中有些话题课文所提供的内容明显不足，我们要适当增补课外阅读材料，以充实同一话题模块的学习内容。

参照《浙江新高考 英语》一书，具体操作如下：

（1）复习一个话题模块须归纳话题语言，形成一个类义“词典”，同一话题下的词汇组合成话题“词典” 首先我们分别复习话题涉及到各个单元的单词、词组、句型和语法，注重对教材基础知识的归纳、总结和升华。每个单元复习完进行听写和测试，每个话题复习完后进行一次阶段性检测。试题内容的60%—70%来自于课堂复习的基础知识，充分发挥考试的导向性和诊断性，使测试真正成为学生“看得见，摸得着”的诊断手段和学习导向。语法的复习结合近几年高考，我们重点复习主从复合句、主谓一致、倒装句、非谓语动词、情态动词、虚拟语气和句子的时态与语态，其他语法项目则根据不同班级的特点，自选讲解，备课组提供资料和部分习题。然后以话题为中心，有意识地让学生感知话题与词汇的关系：发动学生收集、整理与话题有关的专门词汇并将其列成表，帮助学生学习话题和专门词汇的英语表达，为学生针对某个话题知识的应用打下基础。按话题集中学习词汇，正如图书馆的分类藏书，方便词语的储存，检索和提取。在语言运用中，无论是听、说，还是读、写、译，一旦话题被激活，话题词汇的意义联系随即接通，词语检索和提取进入自动化过程。话题语言聚合的最小单位最好为词块，如body language话题可以引出：eye contact, shake one’s head……因为body language具有表情达意功能，还可引出：express one’s thoughts and opinions, communicate with other people等。如此连类扩展，就可构成一个庞大的词汇系统。（2）话题、功能、结构成一体

话题为语言反映世界的范畴，相当于文章中的“题材”；功能是语言在一定语境和情景中表情达意从而实现交际意图的作用；结构是语言发挥话语交际功能的外在形式，主要是词汇、语法，可以扩大到文章结构。三者并非独立，而是相互联系结成一体。

如：一篇话语功能为介绍著名人物或自我介绍或简历的书写的文章，话题内容必定涉及到“出生、家庭、婚姻、爱好、兴趣、教育、奋斗、成功、信念、荣誉”等。相应的词汇便会有：birth, be born on… / in…，marry, get married, marriage，hobby, interest, be interested, prefer … to …, prefer to do sth, rather than do sth., have a good habit of …，education, be educated, receive,be admitted(in)to ,majored in,graduation,graduate from, receive a degree, work hard,struggle, fight, make great contributions to,devote…to…,be devoted to…,success,make success,succeed in,be successful in, successful,honor, be honored as, be rewarded等。句型如：When at college, I majored in… and received / got a bachelor’s / master’s / doctor’s degree.；

*… I graduated from … Middle School；With the help of …, he … ；*He worked / studied / trained so hard that he … ；He worked so hard at… as to…等。还有因类义关系在上列词汇中共现的其它语言材料，如关于“家庭人员”、“各类学校”、“年龄”；词语搭配和句子结构也都在话题语言中；这类文章的典型时态是一般过去时，顺叙、倒叙、按时间顺序行文是这类语篇的典型结构和叙事方法。学习上述语篇类型的全部知识，就把话题、功能和结构三者有机地结合在一起了。（3）体裁分类教学 同一模块文章若属于不同体裁，应再次分类，每一体裁至少备足两篇文章，若课本中没有或不足，则从课外阅读材料中选取，以每一体裁的典型语篇为主，适当考虑变体，侧重记叙文、议论文、说明文、新闻报道、时政评述和广告。在同一话题中，不必求全体裁。因为特定话题往往与特定体裁相联系。例如：介绍著名人物文章往往为记叙文体，一般人物介绍还可能与求职信或推荐信相联系。通过阅读不同体裁的文章，学习其承载的文化与思想，从而学习话题语言，分析其交际语境及其交际功能，解析语篇的语言特征和语篇结构模式。通过学习同样话题体裁的新语篇进行相互比较，进而积累话题语言，并用所积累的语言知识构建一个同一话题体裁的新语篇。

具体做法：加强语篇训练,进行限时阅读，注重学生解题思路的灵活性，培养应试解题技巧。每周一节课进行阅读测试，题目为与本话题相关的高考试题（如完形填空、阅读理解），测试后及时讲评。（4）语言实践

平常我们习惯于用考试代替语言实践，如在阅读后做选择题，这种方式的训练其交际特征不强，只能算有意义的语言练习，而如果在阅读后就文章内容进行讨论，或结合读者的知识、学历、价值观展开讨论和写读后感，则是一种交际性语言活动，具有用语言做事的特点。

具体做法：设计出各种具有交际特征的“活动”或“任务”，如阅读后填表、排序、问答、讨论、写摘要、缩写、读写、写读后感或者学完一个话题模块用所学语言写一篇相关话题的文章。

“Practice makes perfect”，我们有理由相信，按话题模块组织高三英语课文复习，在复习时尽可能多的进行有意义的语言实践，会提高我们学生的实际语言综合运用能力。

2、集体备课“讲原则，重合作”

集体备课是发挥组内集体合力进行攻坚克难的重要举措。自进入高三开始，我们坚持每周进行实效集体备课。每位英语教师轮流充当中心发言人，提前对每个单元或每项专题的基本知识点进行归纳、整理、打印、下发。集体备课时，中心发言老师对全组汇报讲解，细化知识点；再由全组讨论通过，达成共识，进而在班级授课中落实；同时，中心发言教师根据集体备课和实际授课情况，自行编撰单元测试卷，及时进行检测。这种备课方式，能缓解个人备课压力，激发团队合作的热情，使重难点得到提前解决。

3、质量分析“重数据，讲落实”

对于考试每个小题进行分析，分析的数据落实到全班每题正确人数的统计上，以班级为单位，得到精确的得分率，保证考情、学情分析的有效性，并据此及时调整教学的重点和方向。针对每次单元测试，进行了及时的批阅和讲解，保证教学的连贯性，及时帮助学生巩固基础知识。

4、实施周计划“小步子，快节奏”

在实际教学中，我们要坚持用周计划来分解、细化和推进总体教学计划，使总体计划更具有可操作性和灵活性。高三英语复习备考时间紧、任务重，教师要根据高三英语教学的不同阶段特点，设计课堂教学的内容，安排教学的进度。教无定法，每位老师都有各自的好方法。只要我们肯用心思考，愿意多研究，肯定会让我们的英语课堂精彩起来。让我们的一轮复习课“活起来，动起来”，做到“堂堂有收获，节节有效果”。以上是我们在复习过程中的一些粗浅的计划，有不妥之处敬请大家批评指正，谢谢大家！

第五篇：英语课文（模版）

Unit1 One way of summarizing the American position is to state that we value originality and independence more than the Chinese do.The contrast between our two cultures can also be seen in terms of the fears we both harbor.Chinese teachers are fearful that if skills are not acquired early, they may never be acquired;there is, on the other hand, no comparable hurry to promote creativity.American educators fear that unless creativity has been acquired early, it may never emerge;on the other hand, skills can be picked up later.However, I do not want to overstate my case.There is enormous creativity to be found in Chinese scientific, technological and artistic innovations past and present.And there is a danger of exaggerating creative breakthroughs in the West.When any innovation is examined closely, its reliance on previous achievements is all too apparent(the “Standing on the shoulders of giants” phenomenon).But assuming that the contrast I have developed is valid, and that the fostering of skills and creativity are both worthwhile goals, the important question becomes this:

Can we gather, from the Chinese and American extremes, a superior way to approach education, perhaps striking a better balance between the poles of creativity and basic skills? Unit2 Yet I feel nothing more than a passing whim to attain the material things so many other people have.My 1999 car shows the wear and tear of 105,000 miles.But it is still dependable.My apartment is modest, but quiet and relaxing.My clothes are well suited to my work, which is primarily outdoors.My minimal computer needs can be met at the library.In spite of what I don’t have, I don’t feel poor.Why? I’ve enjoyed exceptionally good health for 53 years.It’s not just that I’ve been illness-free, it’s that I feel vigorous and spirited.Exercising is actually fun for me.I look forward to long, energizing walks.And I love the “can do” attitude that follows.I also cherish the gift of creativity.When I write a beautiful line of poetry, or fabricate a joke that tickles someone, I feel rich inside.I’m continually surprised at the insights that come through my writing process.And talking with so many interesting writer friends is one of my main sources of enjoyment.Unit4 I’d never realized how important daily routine is: dressing for work, sleeping normal hours.I’d never thought I relied so much on co-workers for company.I began to understand why long-term unemployment can be so damaging, why life without an externally supported daily plan can lead to higher rates of drug abuse, crime, suicide.To restore balance to my life, I force myself back into the real world.I call people, arrange to meet with the few remaining friends who haven’t fled New York City.I try to at least get to the gym, so as to set apart the weekend from the rest of my week.I arrange interviews for stories, doctor’s appointments — anything to get me out of the house and connected with others.But sometimes being face to face is too much.I see a friend and her ringing laughter is intolerable — the noise of conversation in the restaurant, unbearable.I make my excuses and flee.I re-enter my apartment and run to the computer as though it were a place of safety.I click on the modem, the once-annoying sound of the connection now as pleasant as my favorite tune.I enter my password.The real world disappears.Unit5 The runway felt different this time.It startled him for a brief moment.Then it all hit him like a wet bale of hay.The bar was set at nine inches higher than his personal best.That’s only one inch off the National record, he thought.The intensity of the moment filled his mind with anxiety.He began shaking the tension.It wasn’t working.He became more tense.Why was this happening to him now, he thought.He began to get nervous.Afraid would be a more accurate description.What was he going to do? He had never experienced these feelings.Then out of nowhere, and from the deepest depths of his soul, he pictured his mother.Why now? What was his mother doing in his thoughts at a time like this? It was simple.His mother always used to tell him when you felt tense, anxious or even scared, take deep breaths.So he did.Along with shaking the tension from his legs, he gently laid his pole at his feet.He began to stretch out his arms and upper body.The light breeze that was once there was now gone.He carefully picked up his pole.He felt his heart pounding.He was sure the crowd did, too.The silence was deafening.When he heard the singing of some distant birds in flight, he knew it was his time to fly.Unit6 Why are we so quick to limit ourselves? I’m not denying that most little girls love dolls and most little boys love videogames, and it may be true that some people favor the right side of their brain, and others the left.But how relevant is that to me, or to anyone，as

an

individual?

Instead of translating our differences into hard and fast conclusions about the human brain, why can’t we focus instead on how incredibly flexible we are? Instead of using what we know as a reason why women can’t learn physics, maybe we should consider the possibility that our brains are more powerful than we imagine.Here’s a secret: math and science don’t come easily to most people.No one was ever born knowing calculus.A woman can learn anything a man can, but first she needs to know that she can do it, and that takes a leap of faith.It also helps to have selective hearing.Unit7 Two centuries ago an English judge in India noticed that several words in Sanskrit closely resembled some words in Greek and Latin.A systematic study revealed that many modern languages descended from a common parent language, lost to us because nothing was written down.Identifying similar words, linguists have come up with what they call an Indo-European parent language, spoken until 3500 to 2000 B.C.These people had common words for snow, bee and wolf but no word for sea.So some scholars assume they lived somewhere in north-central Europe, where it was cold.Traveling east, some established the languages of India and Pakistan, and others drifted west toward the gentler climates of Europe.Some who made the earliest move westward became known as the Celts, whom Caesar’s armies found in Britain.New words came with the Germanic tribes — the Angles, the Saxons, etc.— that slipped across the North Sea to settle in Britain in the 5th century.Together they formed what we call Anglo-Saxon society.The Anglo-Saxons passed on to us their farming vocabulary, including sheep, ox, earth, wood, field and work.They must have also enjoyed themselves because they gave us the word laughter Unit8 There was once a town in the heart of America where all life seemed to live in harmony with its surroundings.The town lay in the midst of a checkerboard of prosperous farms, with fields of grain and hillsides of orchards where, in spring, white clouds of bloom drifted above the green fields.In autumn, oak and maple and birch set up a blaze of colour that flamed and flickered across a backdrop of pines.Then foxes barked in the hills and deer silently crossed the fields, half hidden in the mists of the autumn mornings.Along the roads, laurel, viburnum and alder, great ferns and wild flowers, delighted the traveller’s eye through much of the year.Even in winter the roadsides were places of beauty, where countless birds came to feed on the berries and on the seed heads of the dried weeds rising above the snow.The countryside was, in fact, famous for the abundance and variety of its bird life, and when the flood of migrants was pouring through in spring and autumn people travelled from great distances to observe them.Others came to fish the streams，which flowed clear and cold out of the hills and contained shady pools where trout lay.So it had been from the days many years ago when the first settlers raised their houses, sank their wells and built their barns.
