Ⅲ. A retold version of the text
This article is a news story about a boy’s strange disappearance. Justin Foster, 15, went missing last Friday night in Dover, New Hampshire, while at the same time, people saw alien visiting the Earth. His parents were surprised at first, thinking that he might be staying with his friends. But he did not show up the next day. Police found that Justin did return home that night. Justin’s sister, Kelly, says that she remembered something strange happened that night. She saw a UFO appearing around her house and then took her brother away. And another victim, Mavis Wood in Dover, said that she had ever been taken away by aliens to do some research before. So some people think that Justin was taken away by aliens. But Sam Peterson, the Detective, did not think so. He will not give up until he finds convincing evidence.

Unit 1 Tales of the unexplainedThere are many people who often discuss whether aliens(外星人) are real or not.There are also some different stories about aliens.Do aliens really exist in space？When you think of aliens，what comes to your mind？Whatever pictures we have of aliens in our mind is due to the influence from newspapers，the Internet and the TV.There could be life forms as tiny(极小的) as some microorganisms or as large as giant dinosaurs.Scientists argue that the universe is far too huge and it is very unlikely that only our planet can support life.There must be other planets which support life but are unknown to us.One of the organizations working on outer space life is SETI.Astrophysicist(天体物理学家) Carl Sagan believes the presence of life outside the Earth.Frank Drake，founder of SETI，is another scientist who has devoted his life to providing the presence of life outside the Earth.Many other research projects have been and are still being carried out to collect evidence of life outside the Earth.In fact，Bruno D’Argenio and Giuseppe Geraci have found evidence of life in 4.5 billionyearold meteorites(陨石)．Just as there are people who support the existence of life outside the Earth，there are others who think of it as a farfetched idea.They argue，if there is life outside the Earth，why have we not been able to get any hard evidence till today? 根据上文判断正(T)误(F)1．The scientists are sure that there are some aliens outside the Earth.(F) 2．People have different opinions on whether there is life outside the Earth.(T)Period One Welcome to the unit & ReadingⅠ.重点单词1．unexplained adj.无法解释的，神秘的explain v．说明，解释2．puzzled adj.困惑的，茫然的puzzling adj.令人困惑的3．due adj.由于，因为；预期的；适当的4．disappear vi.消失；失踪appear vi.出现5．witness n．目击者，证人；vt.目击，见证6．flash n．& vi.闪光，闪耀7．assume vt.假定；认为8．construction n．施工；建筑物construct vt.建设；建造9．occur vi.发生10．aboard adv.& prep.在(轮船、飞机、火车等)上；上(轮船、飞机、火车等) 11．possibility n．可能性possible adj.可能的12．case n．案件；具体情况，实例13．amazing adj.令人惊奇(惊叹)的14．injury n．伤害15．dismiss vt.不予考虑；解雇；解散Ⅱ.重点短语1．step up加紧，加强，促进2．due to由于，因为3．show up出现，现身4．take charge of负责，掌管5．make up编造，杜撰；构成6．look into调查Ⅲ.重点句式1．That’s why...那就是……的原因。

Unit 1 Tales of the unexplained
El Niño，a Spanish term for “the Christ child，” was named by South American fishermen who noticed that the global weather pattern，which happens every two to seven years，reduced the amount of fishes caught around Christmas.El Niño sees warm water，collected over several years in the western Pacific，flow back eastwards when winds that normally blow westwards weaken，or sometimes the other way round.
The weather effects，both good and bad，are felt in many places.Rich countries gain more from powerful Niños，on balance，than they lose.A study found that a strong Niño in 199798 helped America’s economy grow by 15 billion，partly because of better agricultural harvests：farmers in the Midwest gained from extra rain.The total rise in agricultural incomes in rich countries is greater than the fall in poor ones.
But in Indonesia extremely dry forests are in flames.A multiyear drought(干旱) in southeast Brazil is becoming worse.Though heavy rains brought about by El Niño may relieve the drought in California ，they are likely to cause surface flooding and other disasters.
The most recent powerful Niño，in 199798，killed around 21,000 people and caused damage worth 36 billion around the globe.But such Niños come with months of warning，and so much is known about how they happen that governments can prepare.According to the Overseas Development Institute(ODI)，however，just 12% of disasterrelief funding in the past two decades has gone on reducing risks in advance，rather than recovery and rebuilding afterwards.This is despite evidence that a dollar spent on riskreduction saves at least two on reconstruction.
Simple improvements to infrastructure(基础设施) can reduce the spread of
disease.Better sewers(下水道) make it less likely that heavy rain is followed by an outbreak of the disease of bad stomach.Stronger bridges mean villages are less likely to be left without food and medicine after floods.According to a paper in 2011 by Mr Hsiang and coauthors，civil conflict is related to El Niño’s harmful effects—and the poorer the country，the stronger the link.Though the relationship may not be causal，helping divided communities to prepare for disasters would at least reduce the risk that those disasters are followed by killing and wounding people.Since the poorest are least likely to make up for their losses from disasters linked to El Niño，reducing their losses needs to be the priority.
61．What can we learn about El Niño in Paragraph 1?
A．It is named after a South American fisherman.
B．It takes place almost every year all over the world.
C．It forces fishermen to stop catching fish around Christmas.
D．It sees the changes of water flow direction in the ocean.
答案D
