Unit 6 FearPart II LISTENING AND SPEAKINGLesson A / ListeningSCRIPTTrack 6-1What are some of the things people are afraid of? A recent survey asked more than 1,000 people what they were afraid of and snakes are number one on the list. According to the survey, 51 percent of people are afraid of them. Next, the survey found that 40 percent of people are afraid of speaking in public. Only 11 percent of people said they are afraid of crowds, and just five percent of people are afraid of the dark. Mice, however, were quite high on the list—20 percent of people are afraid of them.SCRIPTTrack 6–21. I have an unusual fear. It happens to me when I’m on public transportation sometimes. I’m fine if there aren’t a lot of people, but if it’s crowded, I freak out a little. I can’t relax. Crowded subways are the worst. If I’m on a crowded car, I usually get off and wait for the next one.2. It’s strange; I like my classmates and I have no trouble talking to any of them. But every time I have to speak in front of the class, I get really nervous. I talk too fast, or I forget information. It’s frustrating. Once I start talking, I’m usually okay, but I have a really hard time at first.3. I don’t know why I’m afraid of them; I’m much bigger than they are, but they still freak me out. Mice just run so fast everywhere! Sometimes, I’ll see one run across the kitchen fl oor and I can’t go into the kitchen for hours. I can’t even set a trap for them. It’s crazy.ConversationTrack 6–3A: What’s something you’re afraid of?B: Nothing really. When I was a kid, I was scared of bugs, like spiders and roaches.A: Oh yeah. Me too. But some things still make me nervous.B: Really? Like what?A: Going to the dentist.B: Yeah, that freaks me out, too.Lesson B / Listening 1Exercise 1SCRIPTTrack 6-4Narrator:Journalist Sebastian Junger—who has reported from places like Afghanistan and Sierra Leone—talks about taking risks and controlling fear.Sebastin Junger:One of our primary emotions is fear. It is one of the worst emotional experiences we can have. Many people do almost anything they can to avoid it, but some actively seek it out. In many ways, doing things that make us afraid is crazy. No other animal intentionally risks its life for thrills or excitement, and yet humans do it all the time. We climb mountains, jump off bridges with parachutes, or kayak in dangerous waters.I used to work as a tree climber, removing old branches from trees. Many times I climbed as high as 24 meters, and then I had to cut six meters of tree above me. It was very dangerous and I had to make just the right cut so that the top of the tree fell forward rather than back on top of me. To deal with my fear, I would wait five or ten minutes before I made the cut. But I wasn’t waiting for courag e; I was waiting for emptiness. For those five to ten minutes, I would care and care and care, and then at some point, I would stop caring. Inside, I’d feel empty. Then I’d make the cut.I imagine that every skydiver who steps out of an airplane or every bungee jumper who jumps off a bridge experiences the same thing. Maybe we’re attracted to these sports not because they’re exciting, but because they give us the chance to face our biggest fear—that someday our lives will end. We’re the only animal that k nows this, and we’re the only one that seems to need to practice for it again and again. Questions:1. According to Sebastian Junger, why do we do things that make us afraid?2. How did Sebastian Junger deal with fear when he was cutting tall trees?1. parachute:降落伞2. kayak:皮划艇Exercise 2SCRIPTTrack 6-5Narrator:Journalist Sebastian Junger—who has reported from places like Afghanistan and Sierra Leone—talks about taking risks and controlling fear.Sebastin Junger:One of our primary emotions is fear.

I think probably the public has an idea that there is more danger than there really is, but still, there is some danger and my experience with that danger has been—uh, even small amounts of it—has been really quite traumatizing.2. You know I grew up in a really safe, comfortable suburb, and I think some of my—I don’t know what you’d call it—some of my interest that leads me in that direction,I think just comes … they’re really just a reaction to the incredible safety and, frankly, sort of boringness that I grew up in.3. You know when you’re … when you exercise really hard or if you experience fear, there’s a chemical reaction in your body … and those feel good—I mean, just chemically they feel good—and the human body responds to that experience in a positive way. And so anybody—from, you know, your grandmother to an eighteen year old guy who’s driving too fast—everyone responds to the thrill of risk with some positive response to risk. People just have different levels of risk, and thrill turns to terror at different places for different people.PART III VIDEOSCRIPTBoyd Matson:“The biggest spiders in the world are the aptly named ‘goliath’ tarantulas. Most people would run the other way if they saw a spider that was this big. But one intrepid researcher ... makes it his business to track them down and catch them.”Narrator:For many, tarantulas inspire fear. But for tarantula expert Rick West, they just inspire. West says these skilled hunters, which live mostly on insects, but may eatlarger animals like mice and birds, are misunderstood.Rick West:“They’ve been maligned in horror movies. These are the things that as we’ve come up through our years watching television, science fiction movies, it’s always the thing that creeps out of the shadow and goes for the jugular. And it does; it creeps people out and gives them the wrong impression.”Narrator:Rick has come to French Guiana in search of the largest spider in the world – the “goliath.” It can grow to nearly thirty centimeters across, with large sharp teeth called fangs which can be five centimeters long.But the fangs aren’t the tarantula’s only weapons. Its abdomen is covered with small hairs. The spider can shed these quickly if it is threatened. The hairs can stick to your skin or go inside your nose and cause painful irritation.For Rick, it’s best to look for spiders in the dark. Most tarantulas live underground and come out to hunt at night. And suddenly, right at his feet … a giant. Rick West:“This is a beautiful female. She is a monster. This is Theraphosa blondi, it’s the world’s largest tarantula and world’s largest spider. She’s gotta have a legspan of about 10 inches across. Just have to slow her down here. Unless you really do something to injure it or to scare it, they’ll just walk on you.”Narrator:Rick isn’t afrai d to have a giant tarantula on his shoulder, but he is careful about its irritating hairs, so he lets the spider climb down his arm and onto the ground again. For tiny creatures, this spider is truly a threat. But for most humans, a tarantula’s bite is no worse than a bee sting. West hopes that as he teaches the world more about these creatures, fear will turn into fascination.Theraphosa blondi:亚马逊巨人食鸟蛛,又名哥利亚巨人食鸟蛛,主要生活于南美洲北部的雨林中,体型巨大。

Unit 6 Saving Nature,But Only for Man仅为人类拯救自然Charles Krauthammer1. Environmental sensitivity is now as required an attitude in polite society as is, say, belief in democracy. But now that everyone from Ted Turner to George Bush, Dow to Exxon has professed love for Mother Earth, how are we to choose among the dozens of conflicting proposals, restrictions, projects, regulations and laws advanced in the name of the environment? Clearly not everything with an environmental claim is worth doing. How to choose?在当今文明社会中,对环境的敏感性就像对民主的信仰一样是一种不可或缺的态度。
但是现在从TT到BU,从D到EXXON的每个人都表达了对地球的热爱。
我们如何在以环境之名提出的许多相互矛盾的建议,约束,提案,中进行选择?显而易见,并不是每件冠以环境之名的提议都值得去尝试,我们该如何选择呢?2. There is a simple way. First, distinguish between environmental luxuries and environmental necessities. Luxuries are those things it would be nice to have if costless. Necessities are those things we must have regardless. Then apply a rule. Call it the fundamental axiom of sane environmentalism: Combatting ecological change that directly threatens the health and safety of people is an environmental necessity. All else is luxury.这里有一种简便的方法,首先,要区分什么是保护环境的奢侈品,什么是保护环境的必需品。
Unit-6-Risks新编大学英语第二版第四册课文翻译
Unit-6-Risks新编大学英语第二版第四册课文翻译Unit 6 RisksRisks and YouAt some time or other, all of us have played the part of a hypochondriac, imagining that we have some terrible disease on the strength of very minor symptoms. Some people just have to hear about a new disease and they begin checking themselves to see if they may be suffering from it. But fear of disease is not our only fear, and neither is risk of disease the only risk we run. Modern life is full of all manner of threats-to our lives, our peace of mind, our families, and our future. And from these threats come questions that we must pose to ourselves: Is the food I buy safe? Are toys for my children likely to hurt them? Should my family avoid smoked meats? Am I likely to be robbed on vacations? Our uncertainties multiply indefinitely.Anxiety about the risks of life is a bit like hypochondria; in both, the fear or anxiety feeds on partial information. But one sharp difference exists between the two. The hypochondriac can usually turn to a physician to get a definitive clarification of the situation-either you have the suspected disease or you don't. It is much more difficult when anxiety about other forms of risk is concerned, because with many risks, the situation is not as simple.Risks are almost always a matter of probability rather than certainty. You may ask, "Should I wear a seat belt?" If you' re going to have a head-on collision, of course. But what if you get hit from the side and end up trapped inside the vehicle, unable to escape because of a damaged seat belt mechanism? So does this mean that you should spend the extra money for an air bag? Again, inhead-on collisions, it may well save your life. But what if the bag accidentally inflates while you are driving down the highway, thus causing an accident that would never have occurred otherwise?All of this is another way of saying that nothing we do is completely safe. There are risks, often potentially serious ones, associated with every hobby we have, every job we take, every food we eat-in other words, with every action. But the fact that there are risks associated with everything we are going to do does not, or should not, reduce us to trembling neurotics. Some actions are riskier than others. The point is to inform ourselves about the relevant risks and then act accordingly.For example, larger cars are generally safer than small ones in collisions. But how much safer? Theanswer is that you are roughly twice as likely to die in a serious crash in asmall car than in a large one. Yet larger cars generally cost more than small ones (and also use more gas, thus increasing the environmental risks!), so how do we decide when the reduced risks are worth the added costs? The ultimate risk avoider might, for instance, buy a tank or an armored car, thus minimizing the risk of death or injury in a collision. But is the added cost and inconvenience worth the difference in price, even supposing you could afford it?We cannot begin to answer such questions until we have a feel for the level of risks in question. So how do we measure the level of a risk? Some people seem to think that the answer is a simple number. We know, for instance, that about 25,000 people per year die inautomobile accidents. By contrast, only about 300 die per year in mine accidents and disasters. Does that mean that riding in a car is much riskier than mining? Not necessarily. The fact is that some 200 million Americans regularly ride in automobiles in the United States every year; perhaps 700,000 are involved in mining. The relevant figure that we need to assess a risk is a ratio or fraction. The numerator of the fraction tells us how many people were killed or harmed as the result of a particular activity over a certain period of time; the denominator tells us how many people were involved in that activity during that time. All risk levels are thus ratios or fractions, with values between 0 (no risk) and 1 (totally risky).By reducing all risks to ratios or fractions of this sort, we can begin to compare different sorts of risks-likemining versus riding in a car. The larger this ratio, that is, the closer it is to 1, the riskier the activity in question. In the case just discussed, we would find the relative safety of car travel and coal mining by dividing the numbers of lives lost in each by the number of people participating in each. Here, it is clear that the riskiness of traveling by car is about 1 death per 10,000 passengers; with mining, the risk level is about 4 deaths per 10,000 miners. So although far more people are killed in car accidents than in mining, the latter turns out to be four times riskier than the former. Those ratios enable us to compare the risks of activities or situations as different as apples and oranges. If you are opposed to risks, you will want to choose your activities by focusing on the small-ratio exposures. If you are reckless, then you are not likelyto be afraid of higher ratios unless they get uncomfortably large.Once we understand that risk can never be totally eliminated from any situation and that, therefore, nothing is completely safe, we will then see that the issue is not one of avoiding risks altogether but rather one of managing risks in a sensible way. Risk management requires two things: common sense and information about the character and degree of the risks we may be running.风险与你1 在说不定的某个时候,我们大家都曾充当过疑病症患者的角色,只凭一些轻微的症状便怀疑自己得了某种可怕的病。

But actually the largest risk you could run is being poor. Being poor is far more likely to kill you than smoking, drinking, a hereditary disease, or an unhealthy lifestyle.Wife: Wife: That’s true. If you are poor, you may not have good living conditions, good That’s true. If you are poor, you may not have good living conditions, good medical care and good nutrition. But still I have a question. Why do women live longer than men?Husband: I Husband: I think you’d better ask the experts.think you’d better ask the experts. Key:Ex 1: 3, 5, 6,8,10 Ex 2:four, 6.9, 5.1, doubly, far moreListening 2Scripts:The possibility that something bad will happen is a risk. Risk can also be defined as the degree of danger that goes along with an opportunity. All risks have possible negative results. However, some risks are worth taking. For example, suppose that you have the chance to join a school football team. You risk a possible injury while playing to achieve the sense of accomplishment that comes with being on the team. You decide that the pleasure of playing is worth the injury. By being fit, you can also reduce the risk of physical injury.How can we determine the risks involved in an action? Many risks that relate to health choices have been studied. These risks relate to choices made over activities or behaviors that influence one’s health, either positively or negatively. Scientists ca n use statistics to measure these risks. Statistics is a branch of mathematics that helps determine the possibility that something will occur. The information about this possibility is called statistical risk and can help you make healthy choices.For example, statistics indicate that in the United States the chance of dying from cancer is about 20 percent. In other words, two out of every 10 deaths are due to some kind of cancer. Therefore, the risk of death from cancer is quite high. However, statistics also show that 80 percent of all cancers are related to things over which you have some control. In other words, you can make choices that will reduce your risk of developing cancer. These include such things as avoiding pollution, mot smoking and eating a diet high in fiber. If you do these things, you are less likely to develop cancer.

A compass, a knife, and maps are essential items to take with you. You should also take wooden matches in a waterproof case; some concentrated food such as nuts and dried fruit and water in a canteen. Plan for emergencies as well. Take along first-aid equipment, shelter for the rain, and extra clothes. In order to stay warm, your head, hands and feet must be kept warm, so you should bring gloves, extra socks and a wool hat.If you get lost in the woods, first try to backtrack and find the trail you were on. Look for trail signs other people may have left, such as piles of rocks, tied bunches of grass, or broken branches. Sit down and try to figure out which direction you came from and then go back that way.If you can't find the trail, try to explore the area, marking your path as you go. Climb a tree and look for landmarks. During the day, look for roads or rooftops in the distance. At night, look for lights and sniff the air. You may be able to smell smoke from a campfire. If you detect any of these signs, start to walk in their direction, but if it is dark, find shelter for the night and wait until the morning. Even a full moon won't give you enough light to see; it can throw shadows that hide dangers.If you are lost, do not expect to be rescued. Even if someone knows you are lost and sends out a search party, it may not find you. Therefore, if you can get out on your own, do so. However, if you cannot move far for some reason, build a bright fire at night and a smoky one during the day. Try to clear an area that can be seen from the air, and use rocks to write a message. You can also use bright colors, shiny metal or mirrors to signal aircraft. Above all, do not panic.Key:Ex 1: AHCLE GINJF KMOBDEx 2: BDDDDListening 4Scripts:I've been in a lot of dangerous situations. Over in Bolivia, for example, I was working for a small airline, and we carried just about everything: animals, whisky, dynamite, and, of course, people. There were times when I felt I was flying a bomb, not a plane. Once I was taking dynamite to the mines. Dynamite! Man, I had never seen so much. They had even put some on the floor right next to me. I was certainly nervous on that trip. Well, I was flying over the mountains when suddenly the engine stopped. Somehow I got my parachute on, and got down without the plane, but I was hurt. I was lying out there for about four days before they found me. They told me later that they had almost given me up for dead. Anyway, they got me back to the hospital, and three months later I was flying again. No, I'm not afraid of flying.

This caused worldwide concerns. The accident was reported by the world media. But this morning, to people's great surprise, came thedramatic news that rescue teams had dug 60 meters and tunneled through. They had discovered survivors in the part of the mine not flooded. For the rest of the miners, however, those were really anxious moments. They had prepared themselves for the worst. Now suddenly there was hope that they could see their loved ones again. And then they too were rescued and brought out of the mine. Exhausted and wounded, they were not strong enough to wave to their relatives or friends. Wrapped with blankets, these survivors were carefully handed over to the ambulances and taken to a nearby hospital. However, not everyone survived. One miner was reported to have been found dead, another missing.Key:Ex 1: CBCDAListening 3Scripts:( Joe Burns is a famous racing driver.

Four days later she lay at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. On July 18, 1956, the ocean liner, Andrea Doria, left Italy. It was also traveling to New York. Eight days later, this great ship also lay at the bottom of the Atlantic.The sinking of the two huge ships shocked the world. Reports of the two tragedies filled the newspapers for days. When Andrea Doria went down, people compared her sinking with the sinking of Titanic. There were similarities between the two events; however, there were also important differences.What were some of these similarities? First of all, both ships were transatlantic ocean liners. In addition, they were both luxury liners. They carried many of theworld's rich and famous people. In fact, 10 American millionaires lost their lives when Titanic went down. Today, millions of dollars worth of gold, silver, and cash may still remain locked inside these two sunken ships.Another similarity is that as each ship was sinking, there were acts of heroism and of evil. Some people acted very bravely, even heroically. Some people even gave up their lives so that others could live. There were also some people who acted like cowards. For example, one man on Titanic dressed up as a woman so that he could get into a lifeboat and save his own life. One last similarity is that both of these ships were considered "unsinkable". People believed that they would never sink.There are also differences between these great ship disasters. To begin with, Titanic was on her very first voyage across the Atlantic; Andrea Doria, on the other hand, was on her hundred and first transatlantic crossing. Another difference is that the ships sank for different reasons. Titanic struck an iceberg; while Andrea Doria collided with another ship. Also, Andrea Doria had radar to warn of the approach of another ship; but Titanic was not equipped with radar--It had only a lookout. The lookout was only able to see the iceberg moments before the ship struck it. But, of course, the greatest difference between these two terrible accidents is the number of lives lost. When Titanic sank, more than 1,500 people died--They drowned or froze to death in the icy North Atlantic water. Also, about 700 people survived the sinking. In the Andrea Doria accident, 60 people lost their lives, and around 1,650 lives were saved. One of the reasons that so many people died on Titanic is that the ship was considered to be unsinkable, so there were about half the number of necessary lifeboats to rescue all the people aboard. Andrea Doria had more than enough lifeboats to rescue every person on the ship. However, they were only able to use about half of the lifeboats due to a mechanical problem. The passengers and crew of Andrea Doria were very lucky that another ship was able to rescue most of them. The passengers on Titanic were not so fortunate. It is interesting too that the wreck of Titanic was only found in September, 1985.Key:Ex 1: TFTFFFFFEx 2: 1. New Y ork 2. luxury liners 3. heroism 4. evil 5. “unsi 5. “unsinkab nkab nkable” le”6.

新闻英语视听说(Unit 6) 听力文本与练习答案
City Disease1Task One: Traffic Congestion and Soaring Housing PricesIn this part the program is turned on to the 12th Five-Year-Plan that beginsin 2011. And one focus of that is to tackle challenges during China’s urbanization.When cities become larger, how can they also become more livable? Our reporter Wang Guan joined us here in the studio. He did a bit of research on a problem perhaps few of us can escape today, which is called traffic congestion. So Wang Guan, looks like traffic in big cities is getting worse and seriously compromising our quality of life!Oh! Yes, James. Few would argue that China, as an emerging economy, needs to sell cars. In fact, it sold more cars than any other country since 2009. This is also the problem. Take Beijing for example, the city where we are living. The city already has more than 4 million vehicles. And in the first half of this year, nearly two-thousand a day were added to the street. If this trend continues, in 4 years time, the capital will have 7 million cars.To put the figure into perspective, the maximum capacity for the city’s urban area is 200-thousand vehicles. In other words, should Beijing’s first, second and third ring roads become congested, they can only accommodate less than a quarter of a million vehicles, let alone seven million.And it’s amazing also to find out how OFTEN Beijingers use their vehicles. For example, recently I have did a little bit of research that according to the Beijing Traffic Research Center, the annual mileage of Beijing residen ts’ cars is 15 thousand kilometers, twice the number of Tokyo and 1.5 times than the residents in London. And 40 percent of the times, Beijingers use their cars for trips less than 5 kilometers, which is considered not necessary for taking rides with cars.Let’s look at Beijing and the other big cities, including many many big cities in China. But what about China’s smaller cities, especially its many many towns?We learned soaring housing prices is a major issue in Chinese second-tier cities. For example, in the first quarter, home prices increased more than 10 percent in cities such as Haikou, Kunming and Shenzhen, as are shown. You can see right now as shown in yellow. And also in cities including Nanjing, Shantou and Tangshan, the figure reached nearly 20 percent.The rising real estate price is believed to be associated with a controversial land-bidding system. Now developers who offer the highest price, and possibly withthe strongest connections with key local officials, get the land, regardless of their2 professional track record or credentials.A report submitted by the NPC standing committee says in 2009, less than 30 percent of the central governments budget for affordable housing was duly spent by local officials.So the lack of supervision and transparency we see here are believed to be a cause, which also gives rise to irregular dealings and corruption in other spheres of the society. That includes illegal land-grabbing, cronyism in the workplace, and academic misconduct. All these prevented these second-tier and third-tier Chinese cities from becoming fairer.Task Two: Difficulties in Buying a HouseSpecial Report: Global Financial CrisisAs the US economy goes into recession Americans are finding it’s difficult to buy a house. Real estate agents are having a tough time. Zeng Siwei takes a look at the current US housing market.John Jameson is the president of a consulting firm in Washington. He can earn more than 700-thousand US dollars a year. Thirteen years ago, John bought a villa in Washington for 250-thousand dollars. But he moved out after he and his wife divorced. Since then, he has been living with his daughter in a rented apartment. John now wants a change. This villa costs nearly 2.5 million dollars. It’s merely three blocks away from his office.(John Jameson, Home Buyer)All makes it the best of Washington. And it’s got a lot of space. It’s got back yard, front yard, windows on the side, and a lot of bedrooms and a big basement and a nice family area. John decides to buy the villa and apply for a mortgage from the bank.(John Jameson, Home Buyer)“I have a good income from my business. I have a lot of savings and a perfect credit record. So I thought they’re gonna say, ‘No problem, we’ll give you a loan immediately.’ That’s what I thought.”But it turns out to be opposite.(John Jameson, Home Buyer)“It was what they told me. One, I’m gonna have to go to see very senior management in the bank. And two, the loan is gonna require a much much larger down payment than just six months ago.”A higher down payment is not a big deal for John. But he has to wait longer for the mortgage approval. And that’s what really makes him anxious. The banks have their own explanation for raising the threshold. According to statistics from the National Association of Realtors, ten percent of US home buyers with mortgages are behind on their payments for more than a month, or face foreclosures during the third quarter. The stricter evaluation procedures and higher down payment are preventing many low-income Americans from buying houses. This is creating tough times for real estate agents.3 (Wang Jianyu, Real Estate Agent)“It used to take one or two months to sell a house. Now it normally needs three to four months, or even more.”Real estate developers face the same woes.In 2008, nearly five million homes have been sold in the US, over 12 percent down from last year. And the sales volume for new homes is 486 thousand, over 37 percent less from 2007.(Lawrence Yun, Chief Economist, National Association Realtors)“I n some places home prices are still rising, for closure rates are declining and people are still buying homes. But in other areas home prices are coming down so fast, so quickly that it is causing people to be underwater, meaning that their home values is less than the mortgage that they owe. So there is a large market variation and overall the US housing market right now is struggling.”In the sluggish market, John Jameson only wants a home where he and his daughter can enjoy a more comfortable life. John anxiously looks forward to the mortgage approval, and of course, the day they will move into the new home. Task Three: Aging PopulationChina’s aging population is growing rapidly. The latest projection is that in 2050 one out of three Chinese will be over 60 years old! This issue, not surprisingly, has generated heated debate in the annual session of the top advisory body, the CPPCC. Wang Guan takes a close look.China is likely to grow old before it grows rich. That’s the concern of some CPPCC members att ending the body’s annual sessions in Beijing.According to the latest figures, China currently has 20 million people over 80 years of age. That number will quadruple in 40 years. And by 2050, 400 million Chinese will be above 60 years old which means one in every four Chinese will belong to that category.The United Nations maintains that a country with more than ten percent of its population over 60 is an aging society.However, targeted services lag far behind.In most Chinese cities, senior citizens’ hom es are few and far between. The existing ones can’t provide senior residents with sufficient activities. That’s why for most Chinese, when they grow old, they stay with their children or spouses.(Yang Chao, CPPCC member)“Senior citizens’ homes should inc lude recreational centers, hospitals and senior citizens’ universities...where they can draw, read books, play ball -games, swim and form discussion groups. It should be a place to empower the senior citizens once again.”Some CPPCC members suggest that more of the national budget should go towards serving China’s aging population, namely by building more infrastructure and improve service in senior citizens’ homes. They say the government should encourage insurance companies to be more involved in providing services for senior4 citizens. (Yang Chao)“Commercial organizations should play a bigger role. The government should also have some favorable policies such as tax reduction for senior citizens.” CPPCC members say for those senior citizens who prefer to stay in their own homes, relevant services should be expanded. Besides regular food delivery and medical services, psychological counseling, for example, should also be provided.High Rise Apartments Vulnerable to FireThis catastrophe is being blamed on careless actions by welders. While the investigation continues, the blaze has set off alarm bells over fire safety in tower blocks, which are considered vulnerable in such circumstances.Zhang Mimi brings us more.Monday afternoon’s inten se blaze in this downtown apartment building has left a blackened and painful scar on a once peaceful neighborhood.Vehicles are not allowed within one block of the gutted ( 羊肠小道,内脏) building, but Shanghai residents from near and far continue to visit the scene, mourning the deceased and sharing opinions of the fire.(A Shanghai resident said)“My colleague was inside the building alone when the fire broke out..(A Shanghai resident)“Everyone should be prepared and be aware of the fire safety measures.” It’s believed that unlicensed welders ignited flammable nylon netting and bamboo on the scaffolding ( 脚手架). At least 53 people died and the intensity of the blaze has laid bare the risks and dangers of high rise living. The towering buildings can produce a stack effect, which quickly spreads the smoke to a height where even the tallest ladder can not reach.Professor Chen Baosheng, an expert in disaster prevention, says once a fire breaks out, the fire doors, smoke detectors and automatic sprinklers ( 洒水装置) should mitigate ( 减轻) the disastrous effects.(Prof. Chen Baosheng, Dept. of architecture of Tongji University)“Just like this stadium. Each building should be divided into different zones for preventing fires. Smoke detectors and sprinklers should be installed every 3.6 meters and fire doors should remain closed at all times.”Shanghai is home to the wo rld’s largest number of high rises. There are currently over 14-thousand buildings that are over eight stories in height. Five-hundred are over one hundred meters. While some believe the web of tower blocks display the city’s wealth, and the country’s fast urbanization, others worry these buildings fall short of adequate fire safety measures and enforcement.Experts have yet to find out whether this particular building had properly installed fire safety equipment. Professor Chen warns that proper regulation is5 urgently needed. (Professor Chen Baosheng)“Fire prevention technologies in high -rises are up-to-date. But I think we should step up efforts in terms of regulations and maintenance. Fire doors and exits should not be blocked and in the case of this bui lding, the welding should be supervised.”The massive blaze has many Shanghai residents checking out the fire prevention equipment in their own building. Many say they need to learn more about what to do during an emergency.High-rise fire fighting poses a global challenge. Fanned by strong wind, a blaze could engulf a thirty story building in half a minute, leaving residents little chances of survival. The tragedy at this complex calls for serious attention from the government to tighten enforcement of safety measures and to stop such deadly disaster from being a common occurrence.练习答案Unit Six City DiseaseTask One:1.
