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 would have happened? He thought ofhis mutton kebabs and fatty pork cooked in the hottest, finest oil. His fried rice was hot but did not taste 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 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 Hui.I will take all that fat off you in two weeks if you eat here every day.” Then she gave a menu to Wang Pengwei. There were only two kinds of food and one drink on it: raw vegetables, fruit and water. Wang Pengwei was amased at this and especially at the prices. It cost more than a good meal in his own restanrant. 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 wonder if he shouldgo to the library to find out. He couldn’t have Yong Hui getting awaywith telling people lies! He had better do some research!After reading, he realized what was wrong with Yong Hui’srestaurant. It was not giving its customers energy-giving food! Aftereating in her restaurant people would become tired very quickly,perhaps this was a way to win his customers back! Pengwei wrote hisown 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!2.

Module 2 Developing and Developed countries Section ⅠIntroduction & Reading Pre-readingMost new people were born in developing countries. These countries are found in much of Africa, South America and some parts of Asia. In the developed countries of Europe and North America, the population is growing very slowly. This is because women in these countries have, on average (平均), only one or two children. In the developing countries, many women have five or more children. In 1950, around one quarter of the world’s population lived in the developed countries. By 2050, these countries will behome to only around one tenth of the world’s people.In the developing countries, more than one billion people are still living below the poverty (贫困) line. These people do not have enough food to eat and they live in poor housing. Children get little time at school and people suffer from many kinds of diseases.At the beginning of the 21st century, the world’s population was around six billion people. The U.N. has said that the world’s population will level off (平稳下降) at 12.5 billion by the year 2100. Other groups think the world’s population will continue to grow, reaching 14 billion before it becomes stable (稳定的), oreven falls.

The Index measures ⑦ a country ’s achievements in three ways: life expectancy ⑧ (how long people usually live), education ⑨ and income ⑩. The index has some surprises ⑪. Norway is at the top of ⑫ the list, while the US is at number 7. The other top five countries are: Iceland ⑬ (2), Sweden(3), Australia(4), the Netherlands ⑭ (5). The UK is in the thirteenthposition ⑮, while China is in the middle of the list. The bottom ten countries are all African countries, with Sierra Leone ⑯ (in West Africa) at the bottom of ⑰ the list ⑱.The report describes eight Development Goals ⑲. The most important goals are to ⑳:·reduce poverty and hunger;·make sure○21 that all children have education up to ○22 the age of 11; ·fight AIDS and other diseases;·improve the environment of poor people, e.g. make sure they have safe drinking water ;·encourage developed○23 countries to give ○24 more help to other countries.

Module 2 Developing and Developed countries Section Ⅳ OtherParts of the Module[原文呈现]Town TwinningHow are Oxford in the UK and Grenoble in France similar? Well, they’re both mediumsized towns of between 100,000 and 200,000 inhabitants①. They both have universities and industries. Tourism is important to② both of them, and they are both close to③some of the most beautiful countryside in the region. But they share something else: they have a town twinning agreement.Town twinning is not a new idea, but it has become more popular in recent years because it’s now easier to find out④ about and visit other countries and towns. It’s an agreement between towns or cities of similar size and age⑤, and which have similar features⑥ such as tourism, industry, culture and entertainment⑦.[读文清障]①inhabitant/In'hæbItənt/n.居民②be important to对……重要③be close to靠近,接近to为介词,其后接名词、代词或动名词。
④it's now easier to find out ...中it作形式主语,真正的主语是后面的动词不定式短语to find out ...。
⑤of similar size and age具有相似面积大小和历史的⑥which have similar f eatures是which引导的定语从句,修饰towns or cities, which 在从句中作主语。
⑦entertainment/ˌentə'teInmənt/n.娱乐姐妹城市[第1~2段译文]英国的牛津和法国的格雷诺布尔有什么相似之处?它们都是中等大小的城镇,人口在10万到20万之间。
它们都拥有大学和工业。
旅游业对这两个城镇来说都很重要,而且它们都靠近该地区一些最漂亮的乡村。
但是它们还有其他共同之处:它们之间有一个姐妹城市协议。
姐妹城市不是一个新的想法,但是近几年它变得更受欢迎,因为现在更容易了解和参观其他的国家和城镇。
它是那些规模和年代相似的城镇或城市之间的协议,它们有相似的特征,如旅游业、工业、文化和娱乐。
Town twinning agreements encourage⑧people from the two towns to visit each other. There are visits and exchanges⑨ between schools, theatre groups and sports teams. Visitors from the foreign town usually stay in the private homes of the town they are visiting⑩. There is usually a big party for the visitors.Town twinning agreements are perhaps most⑪ useful for students and people who want to practise⑫ speaking another language⑬ . This is because⑭ living with a foreign family for one or two weeks means⑮ that you have to speak their language, and as a result⑯ you improve⑰ fast.⑧encourage sb. to do sth.鼓励某人做某事⑨exchange/Iks’tʃeIndʒ/n.交换in exchange for作为……的交换⑩they are visiting是定语从句,修饰the town,从句中省略了作宾语的关系代词that或which。
⑪most此处相当于very。
⑫practise v.练习practise doing sth.练习做某事⑬who want to practise speaking ...是who引导的定语从句,修饰students and people。
⑭This is because ...这是因为……⑮mean v.意思是mean to do 打算做……mean doing意味着做……⑯as a result结果as a result of 由于⑰improve v.改善;改进[第3~4段译文]姐妹城市协议鼓励来自这两个城镇的人们参观彼此的城镇。
在学校、剧团以及体育团体之间都有一些访问和交流活动。
来自国外城镇的旅游者通常待在他们正在参观的城镇的私人家里。
通常会为来访者举行一个大的聚会。
姐妹城市协议或许对那些想要练习讲另一门语言的学生和人们来说最有用处。
这是因为与一个外国家庭在一起生活一两周意味着你将不得不讲他们的语言,结果是你进步很快。
