人教版必修1 Unit 4 Natural Disasters (主题：自然灾害 )阅读与写作

人教版必修1 Unit 4 Natural Disasters （主题：自然灾害）阅读与写作【单元主题工自然灾害Today, scientists worldwide are studying plants and animals to build a better class of robots. Many of the robots may help with future rescue. And while some of these nature-inspired robots are in the lab, at least one type of these robots has been tested during a big natural disaster.Months ago, a big earthquake shook central Mexico. The quake resulted in hundreds of deaths and destroyed thousands of buildings. Before long, volunteers asked scientists from a lab at the Carnegie Mellon University to bring their snake robots to Mexico City to aid in the rescue efforts.Soon, scientist Matthew Travers, one director of this lab, and other scientists reached Mexico City and traveled between the city's fallen-down buildings. They used the cameras on the heads of the snake robots to look into a building/s open spaces and check if people were trapped inside.In the past years, scientists at the Carnegie Mellon University have worked to develop snake robots. By changing the designs of the robots made before, they created a “unified snake robot” , which could move through different types of terrain （地形）.But Travers and his teammate Howie Closet said that the snake robots had somewhat limited success in the Mexico City earthquake. zz lt wasn't like what we had thought: we brought the snake robots down there and we won the war/'says Travers.The big reason was that the robots were not equipped with any microphones,speakers, or proximity sensors （接近感应器）,Such kinds of modern equipment would have greatly improved the snake robots' ability to communicate with people who were trapped or to map the environment/The reason why wedon/t have more equipment is only because of money,''says Choset.Research on snake robots continues to move on. But Choset says it remains a challenge to get money to develop search-and-rescue robots.阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

新人教高中英语必修一Unit4 Nature Disasters单元分析讲义

Unit 4 Natural Disasters单元分析本单元主题：人与自然——自然灾害与防范一、单元内容分析本单元以自然灾害为话题，探讨在“人与自然”的主题之下，当人类面临自然灾害的威胁时，应该树立防灾意识，不断研究和认识自然灾害，提高在灾害中逃生的能力。

本单元学习设置从认识自然灾害的种类开始，到介绍近现代历史上国内外发生过的重大自然灾害事件，再到探讨面对灾害的威胁和所造成的损失时，人们可以采取的应对措施等。

本单元还力图体现“灾害无情人有情”的主题意义，即人类在重大自然灾害面前不屈不挠，相互援助，坚定信心，重建家园。

以下为教材各部分教学内容简要分析及教学活动实施建议：1．Opening Page主题图呈现的是解放军战士在汶川地震的废墟中运送伤者的感人画面，体现了在发生重大自然灾害时，军民同心，合力救助受灾人员的大无畏的人道主义精神，突出了解放军战士在赈灾工作中的重要作用和无私奉献精神。

了解自然灾害，积极应对自然灾害，知道防范和减少自然灾害损失的基本措施，是21世纪公民应该具备的基本素质。

开篇页的引言“Live to Tell：Raising Awareness，Reducing Mortality.”可以翻译为“用生命呼吁：增强减灾意识，减少人员伤亡”。

这句话是2016年联合国国际减灾战略（United Nations International Strategy for Disaster Reduction）的活动主题，目的是呼吁全球各地的人们重视自然灾害，树立防范意识。

2．Listening and Speaking：Report natural disasters 该部分听力文本为四则关于自然灾害的新闻播报。

第一则以早间新闻播报的形式，报道了厄瓜多尔一场突发的7.8级地震。

第二则是晚间新闻，是对发生在中国江西和湖南的洪水灾害的跟踪报道。

第三则是美国田纳西州孟菲斯南部当地电台对本地突发的龙卷风灾害的插入式新闻播报。
