Unit 9 Future jobsTask 1: Understanding ReadingIn this lesson, we will explore the topic of future jobs. It is important to think about our future careers and what we want to achieve in life. By discussing and researching different job options, we can make informed decisions about our future paths.1.1 Reading ComprehensionTo start, let's enhance our reading comprehension skills by reading a passage about the future of jobs. This passage will provide us with valuable insights into the potential careers that may arise in the future. Pay close attention to the details and main ideas presented in the text.The Future of JobsThe world is rapidly changing, and with it, the types of jobs available to us. In the past, many jobs were centered around manual labor, such as farming and manufacturing. However, as technology continues to advance, we are seeing a shift towards more knowledge-based jobs.In the future, new job roles are expected to emerge, such as virtual reality designers, sustainable energy engineers, and genetic counselors. These jobs will require specialized skills and knowledge in fields that are still developing.It is also predicted that automation will play a significant role in our future jobs. Many routine tasks will be taken over by machines and artificial intelligence, freeing up human workers to focus on more complex and creative tasks. This means that individuals should consider developing skills that complement and go beyond what machines can do. 1.2 VocabularyBefore moving forward, let's take a moment to familiarize ourselves with some key vocabulary related to future jobs. These words will be usefulas we delve deeper into this topic.1. Virtual reality: the use of computer technology to create a simulated environment2. Sustainable energy: energy obtained from sources that are notdepleted with use, such as solar or wind power3. Genetic counselors: professionals who provide guidance and support to individuals or families who may be at risk of genetic disordersBy understanding these vocabulary words, we can better comprehend the concepts discussed in the text and expand our overall knowledge offuture jobs.Task 2: DiscussionNow that we have read the passage and learned some new vocabulary, let's engage in a discussion about future jobs. Working in pairs or small groups, discuss the following questions:1. Which future job mentioned in the passage interests you the most? Why?2. Do you think automation will have a positive or negative impact onour future jobs? Why?3. What skills do you believe will be most valuable for future professionals?During the discussion, try to provide detailed answers and support your opinions with examples or personal experiences.Task 3: PresentationTo conclude this lesson, we will have a presentation session where each group or pair will share their discussion outcomes. Prepare a brief presentation highlighting the main points of your discussion, including the most interesting future job, the impact of automation, and theskills required for future professionals. Be confident, clear, and concise during your presentation.Remember, the aim of this task is to reflect on the passage, engage in meaningful discussion, and practice your presentation skills. Let's embrace the opportunities that future jobs hold for us and strive to make a difference in the world!End of the Document.Note: This document is solely created for educational purposes and should not be used for any commercial or advertisement purposes.

人教版九年级U n i t9-2b-原文及译文本页仅作为文档页封面,使用时可以删除This document is for reference only-rar21year.March原文:Last night one of my Chinese friends took me to a concert of Chinese folk music. The piece which was played on the erhu especially moved me. The music was strangely beautiful, but under the beauty I sensed a strong sadness and pain. The piece had a simple name, Erquan Yingyue (Moon Reflected on Second Spring), but it was one of the most moving pieces of music that I’ve eve r heard. The erhu sounded so sad that I almost cried along with it as I listened. Later I looked up the history of Erquan Yingyue, and I began to understand the sadness in the music.The music was written by Abing, a folk musician who was born in thecity of Wuxi in 1893. His mother died when he was very young. Abing’s father taught him to play many musical instiuments, such as the drums, dizi and erhu, and by age 17, Abing was known for his musical ability. However, after his father died, Abing’s life grew worse. He was very poor. Not only that, he developed a serious illness and became blind. For several years, he had no home. He lived on the streets and played music to make money. Even after Abing got married and had a home again, he continued to sing and play on the streets. He performed in this way for many years.Abing’s amazing musical skills made him very popular during his lifetime. By the end of his life, he could play over 600 pieces of music. Many of these were written by Abing himself. It is a pity that only six pieces of music in total were recorded for the future world to hear, but his popularity continues to this day. Today, Abing’s Erquan Yomgyue is a piece which all the great erhu masters play and praise. It has become one of China’s national treasures. Its sad beauty not only paints a picture ofAbing’s own life but also makes people recall their deepest wounds from their own sad or painful experiences.译文:昨晚,我的一个中国朋友带我去听了一场中国民间音乐的音乐会。

九年级下册英语第九单元2b知识点

九年级下册英语第九单元2b知识点

九年级下册英语第九单元2b知识点回顾英语学习是九年级学生们学习的重要内容之一,而九年级下册英语第九单元中的2b知识点是学习英语的关键要素。

在这篇文章中,我们将回顾这些知识点,并探讨如何巧妙地应用它们。

首先,我们来谈谈动词的时态。

动词的时态在句子中扮演着重要的角色,它们告诉我们动作发生的时间。

在这个单元中,我们学习了过去进行时和一般将来时。

过去进行时表示过去某个时间正在进行的动作,例如:She was reading a book when I called her.一般将来时则表示将要发生的动作或存在的状态,例如:I will goto Beijing next week. 学会运用这两个时态,可以让我们的英语表达更加准确和流利。

其次,我们要重点关注被动语态。

被动语态是句子的另一种表达方式,它强调的是动作的接受者而不是执行者。

在2b知识点中,我们学习了如何构成被动语态,以及如何区分被动语态和主动语态。

例如:The book was written by Mark. 这句话中,主语是"The book",但强调的是动作的执行者"Mark"。

被动语态在阅读理解和文章写作中非常常见,掌握被动语态的用法有助于我们更好地理解和使用英语。

此外,我们还需要关注副词的比较级和最高级。

在这个单元中,我们学习了如何构成副词的比较级和最高级,并学习了一些常用的副词的规则变化。

比如,在形容词前加上-er来构成比较级,加上-est来构成最高级,例如:fast - faster - fastest。

掌握这些规则,可以让我们的句子更加生动有趣,并且增加我们的英语词汇量。

除了时态、被动语态和副词的比较级和最高级,我们还学习了其他一些重要的语法知识。

例如,虚拟语气和条件句。

虚拟语气用于表达非事实的情况,包括与现在事实相反的情况以及与过去事实相反的情况。

条件句则是用于表达条件和结果之间的关系。

If a foreign visitor feels ill, he could go to see a doctor at a hospital. Most foreign travelers to Beijing say that the medical treatment in the city is both convenient and inexpensive. If they fall ill, they may easily find medical service at their hotel; or if they are seriously ill, they could go to the nearest hospital or community clinic. There, they will get good medical treatment. Health insurance is usually not required.

九年级下册英语九单元2b知识点

九年级下册英语九单元2b知识点Unit 9, Lesson 2B: Knowledge PointsIntroductionIn the ninth grade English curriculum, Unit 9 focuses on vocabulary and grammar related to transportation. Lesson 2B delves into various knowledge points in this unit, providing students with a deeper understanding of the subject matter. In this article, we will explore some important concepts and key takeaways from this lesson.Transportation Vocabulary1. Public TransportationPublic transportation refers to a system of vehicles that are available for use by the general public, typically operated on a regular schedule. This includes buses, trains, trams, and subways. Public transportation plays a crucial role in reducing traffic congestion, promoting environmental sustainability, and ensuring accessibility for all.2. Private TransportationPrivate transportation, on the other hand, refers to personal vehicles owned and operated by individuals. This includes cars, motorcycles,bicycles, and even walking. While private transportation offers convenience and flexibility, it also contributes to traffic congestion and air pollution.3. Sustainable TransportationSustainable transportation refers to modes of transport that have minimal impact on the environment and promote long-term ecological balance. Examples include electric vehicles, bicycles, and walking. Sustainable transportation aims to reduce carbon emissions and combat climate change.Transportation Trends and Challenges1. Urbanization and Traffic CongestionAs urban areas continue to expand, the demand for transportation increases. Rapid urbanization brings about the challenge of traffic congestion. This problem can be addressed through the expansion of public transportation systems, the promotion of carpooling, and the development of smart city initiatives.2. Alternative Fuels and Electric VehiclesWith the growing concern about environmental issues, there has been a push for alternative fuels and electric vehicles. Governments andcar manufacturers are investing in research and development to make these technologies accessible and affordable. The adoption of electric vehicles can significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions and dependence on fossil fuels.3. Infrastructural DevelopmentTo accommodate the increasing volume of traffic, the development of transportation infrastructure is vital. This includes building and expanding roads, bridges, airports, and ports. It also involves investing in high-speed rail networks and updating public transportation systems. Such development requires significant funding and careful planning to ensure efficiency and sustainability.Grammar Points1. Comparative and Superlative AdjectivesComparative adjectives are used to compare two things, while superlative adjectives are used to compare more than two things. For example, "bigger" is a comparative adjective, and "biggest" is a superlative adjective. The structure is: adjective + "er" (comparative form) or "est" (superlative form).2. Adverbs of MannerAdverbs of manner describe how an action is performed. They often end in "-ly," such as "quickly," "happily," or "carefully." Adverbs of manner provide additional information about verbs and enhance the description of an action.ConclusionUnit 9, Lesson 2B of the ninth-grade English curriculum introduces students to a range of transportation-related vocabulary and grammar. Understanding the different modes of transportation, transportation trends, and challenges, as well as essential grammar points, will broaden students' knowledge and enable them to communicate effectively in various real-life situations. It is essential to recognize the significance of sustainable transportation and the importance of a well-developed transportation infrastructure in the context of modern society's needs.。

Encourage students to give specific examples of brands that they like or think are particularly effective.2 Students plete the article with the phrases. A-G. Note that while this task is very similar to Part Two of the Reading Test, it is slightly more difficult because all seven phrases need to be put in the text, rather than only five. Also note that in the test the sentences are plete, whereas in this exercise A-G are all parts of sentences (relative clauses).Answers1 B2 G3 E4 C5 A6 F7 DExtensionFor more vocabulary and reading practice, ask students to underline:1 any smell they may need bilingual dictionaries to check understanding of these smells2 examples of how panies have used these smells.3 synonyms for the word smell.Answers1 Sugar and butter, vanilla and mandarin, white tea, lavender, cherry.2 In stores to put customers in the mood for buying, attract customers to displays, make shoppers wait longer, visit a hotel ice cream shop, to creat the perception that the product is good, on mobile phone keypads and on billboards.3 odour, scent, fragrance, aromaDiscussing brandingSpeaking3 Students work alone to plete the three beginnings of sentences. Students then pare their views and continue discussing the article.Possible answersOne thing that interests me about this is that smell can have such an effect on humans.One thing that surprises me is that ScentAir's turnover has quadrupled as a result.4 Put students into groups of three to discuss each of the five items. One person in each group should make notes on their decisions and which smells they will use. At the end, each group can report back to the class.Photocopiable activity 9.1See page 176.Relative clausesGrammarAsk students to read the information about relative clauses. They could also refer to the grammar summary on page 130 for more detailed information.1 Students plete the sentences with the correct relative pronoun. These pronouns should be familiar to students at this level.Answers1 which2 when3 who4 whose5 why6 whereExtensionWrite the following on the board and the relative pronouns in a jumbled list. Ask students to match the pronoun to what it refers to: (answers in brackets) person (who)thing/item (which)possession (whose)location (where)reason (why)time (when)2 The aim of this exercise is to draw student's attention to the fact that there are two types of relative clauses (defining and non-defining).AnswersWe're a Swedish pany which has controlling shares in three subsidiaries and a large stake in one smaller division. It is remended therefore that we focus our financial interests on the smaller subsidiary, which incidentally is also based in Sweden.3 Students analyse the key differences between the two clauses by referring back to exercise 2. They may also need to refer to and check their answers in the grammar summary on page 130.Answers1 defining2 non-defining3 mas4 The sentences in the text on page 87 containing relative clauses are those which were pleted with A-G in exercise 2 on page 86. If students seem unsure, tell them that if there is a ma it will be non-defining. Defining:...that his grandmother used to make...who walk around reception will get a whiff of a chocolate chip cookie...when it began 12 years ago...why so many panies are now association brands with a scentNon-defining:...which typically includes more than six smells...where the odour of waffle-cones were released into the air to encourage visitors to an out-of-the way ice cream shop...whose recently-introduced cell phone keypad was lavender-scented5 that4 Students study the example and plete sentences 1-4. Answers1 Let me introduce you to David who's the direct of our pany.2 This is the main factory where we produce car parts.3 This is our latest product which is also our biggest seller.4 The pany had a turnover of about a million Euros in 2004 when it was founded in 2004.5 Students personalise the grammar focus with sentences of their own.Possible answersI worked for a pany which produces software.I study at a college that specialises in business courses. The best kind of boss is someone who doesn't interfer. ExtensionStudents could pare their sentences in pairs or groups.6 Tell students to make the sentences non-defining. They should insert the clause in the middle of the sentence.Answers1 My pany, which is based in Sydney, has offices all over the world.2 Mrs. Sayers, who's waiting in reception, says she has an appointment with you.3 The man, whose briefcase we found last night, called this morning to see if we had it.4 The report, which I've just finished, is in your in-tray.PronunciationYou could help students focus on the pronunciation of non-defining relative clauses at this stage by drilling the four sentences in exercise 6. Students need to note that there will be a slight pause where there are mas and that the intonation often rises before the first ma to indicate the speaker has more to say. You could mark the sentences on the board like this:↗↘1 My pany, /which is based in Sydney, /↘has offices all over the world.↗↘2 Mrs. Sayers, /who's waiting in reception, /↘says she has an appointment with you.↗↘3 The man, /whose briefcase we found last night, /↘called this morning to see if we had it.↗↘4 The report, /which I've just finished, /↘is in your in-tray.Chinese luxury obsessionReading7 This task requires students to read a text very carefully, and correct any pronouns or features of relative clauses (such as mas).Answers1 which where2 what who3 who's whose4 where, (delete ma)5 when why6 whose which7 why where8 nowadays, (delete ma)9.2 Getting throughAutomated voicemail systems Listening1 Ask the students what they think is the worst invention of the modern age, eg the car, the mobile phone, etc. They then pare their ideas with the view in the article. Find out at which point on the scale (1-10) most students give up listening to an automated voice mail system. Also find out if their panies use them.2 9.1 Play the recording of someone having to deal with an automated voicemail system.Answers1 GH Loans.2 The caller presses 2 because he wants to speak to an operator.3 The caller reaches 3 on the scale before he puts the phone down because the system uses speech recognition technology which requires him to answer "Yes" or "No".9.1 Listening scriptC = Caller M = MachineC Hello, I'd like to speak to...M Hello. Thank you for calling GH Loans Customer Care. You will now hear a number of options. Please press the option you require. For a statement, press 1, for early repayment, press 2, for any other enquiry or to speak to one of our operators, press 3...Thank you.C Hello, I'm calling about...M Thank you for calling GH Loans.

Could you tell me if the payment has gone through?O Right. I don't see it. Can you bear with me for a second? I'm just going to put you on hold.C Sure.O Hello. Sorry to keep you waiting. I'm afraid I can't find a record of it. How much was it for?C Five thousand Euros.O I'll have to check this for you.

O So that was zero one seven, two double four, three nine two nine.C That's right. What time do you think you'll call back because I have to go out now?O When would suit you?C At four.O That's fine. Speak to you then. Goodbye.C Bye.Telephone wordsV ocabulary4 9.1, 9.2 Ask students to try to plete 1-10 before they listen. If your students have difficulties, you could play the conversations again to help them.Answers1 unavailable / take2 hold3 put / through4 One5 take6 bear with me7 put (you) on hold8 call (you) back9 So that was 10 suitPronunciationStudents often have problems saying the words convenient, unavailable and suit so you may want to drill these. It will also be helpful to drill the entire phrases from exercise 4. Make sure your students' intonation sounds friendly and polite.5 Give students time to study the rules for phrasal verbs and how the position of the object can change in some cases. Once they have looked at this, let them plete 1-9. Note that they should also try to write two answers where possible.Answers1 Let me call you back later.2 Let me read that back to you.3 I'm just looking up his number on the puter. / I'm just looking his number up on the puter.4 Do you mind if we put the meeting back to Tuesday? / Do you mind if we put back the meeting to Tuesday?5 We'll bring the schedule forward by a week. / We'll bring forward the schedule by a week.6 Hold on a moment.7 Sorry, the battery on my mobile is about to run out.8 Sorry, he's tied up with something at the moment. CanI help?9 I'm just putting you on hold for a moment.Making phone callsSpeaking6 Students carry out similar role-plays to the situation in listening 9.2. Student A looks at File 9.1 on page 127 and Student B looks at File 9.2 on page 132. They take turns to call and must plete notes in a message. Possible answersStudent A's message (File 9.1)Caller: Mr/Ms JakuczikMessage: He/She rang to postpone meeting with Mr Vathone On 24th in Hong Kong, China.Account number: YE99-087Call back at: 7pm (US time)Student B's message (File 9.2)Caller: Mr/Ms JingshanMessage: He/She paid $3,760 into account, but it isn't on this month's statement.Account number: HIE364 4756Call back at: (students decide time) on980 765 55 44Photocopiable activity 9.2See page 177.Email marketingReading1 Discuss the questions as a class. Check that students know the word "spam" which is often used to refer to unwanted emails. Students should also be familiar with the words "junk email" which many email programs can now identify and prevent from arriving in your inbox.2 Students read the article and answer questions 1-3. Answers1 B2 B3 A3 Discuss the question with the class. Dr Mani is an interesting case in terms of unwanted emails because part of the money he makes from sending spam goes to charity. For this reason, students might have to think twice about deleting his emails.4 This task resembles a possible discussion in the final part of the Speaking Test. Refer students to the Exam Success tip, but you might want to give them more than three minutes at this stage to discuss their newsletter. It will be helpful if one student takes notes on what it will include and who will receive it. This information can be presented to the class at the end.ExtensionWith pre-work learners on college courses or on courses where you have plenty of time for project work, it may be appropriate to set up a project where students produce a newsletter, possibly for their place of study. This lesson would be a good moment to introduce the concept and find out what students would like to include.Correcting and rewritingWriting5 Students will find the six missing words in the first five lines of the article on page 92.Answers1 email2 capitals3 spam (or) email newsletters4 important5 subject6 inbox6 Students try to add more tips to the six listed in exercise 5.Possible answers- With emails to people you don't know, use formal expressions such as Dear..., I am writing to..., I look forward to....- Organise your emails into folders.- Send many attachments in separate emails.- Only cc emails to someone else when it's really necessary.7 Students read the email and study the rules in exercise 5.AnswersThe person broke the following rules:1 He/She didn't check for things like spelling, grammar and formality (eg. received / I look forward to see you then / Hi...).2 and 4 He/She used capitals and marked it IMPORTANT!5 The subject line wasn't short and clear.8 Students re-draft the email in exercise 7 to improve it. It is up to the students to decide how well the two people (Mr Kay and J) already know each other. If in doubt, remind students that as a general rule it's best to use a semi-formal or neutral business register. This is also true of the BEC Vantage writing test.Possible answerDear Mr Kay,Further to your message regarding next week's brand development meeting, I can confirm that I will be able to attend. Please also find attached ScentAir's latest proposal, which we can discuss in more detail next week.I look forward to seeing you.Best regardsJohn Taylor9.3 Writing testExam PracticeBegin by asking students to read the introductory paragraph about this part of the exam. Refer them to the Exam Success tip and ask them to answer the four questions in the tip with reference to the exam task on page 95.Answers-What type of business document do I need to write? A report.-What is my role (job) in the scenario? A representative from a market research pany carrying out research.-Who am I writing it for / to? A soft drinks pany.-What information from the visual material and handwritten notes is essential? The information in the handwritten notes is always essential in this type of question. With the pie charts, students will need to summarise the main trends indicated rather than list every figure given. With the bar chart, students should summarise the overall indication of preferences and not worry about quoting exact percentages.Students write their reports. If necessary, refer them back to the introduction to writing reports in Module 4 on page 42 and 43. They will also find the checklist on page 94 helpful while they write or after they have plete their reports. They could then swap with a partner and use the checklist to mark their work.Possible answerReport on findings from focus group research IntroductionThe aim of this report is to make remendations based on findings from ten focus groups. FindingsFirstly, nearly three-quarters of responses to the cherry flavour were very positive with only 7% being neither positive nor negative about the product.On the other hand, about two-thirds said they disliked the strawberry flavour because of the sugar and artificial taste.Finally, with regard to the normal and diet versions, approximately 20% more people preferred the diet cherry version and nearly three times as many preferred the diet strawberry version.RemendationsBased on these findings, I would remend that the pany launches two types of cherry flavour drink (normal and diet). While I wouldn't suggest a normal strawberry version, the pany could consider producing a diet version which was clearly more popular.。

九年级英语第九单元2b知识点

九年级英语第九单元2b知识点

九年级英语第九单元2b知识点The focus of the ninth unit in the ninth-grade English curriculum is the "2b" knowledge point. This knowledge point entails the understanding and application of various grammar rules, vocabulary, and language skills. In this article, we will explore and delve deeper into the different aspects of this knowledge point.1. Grammar Rules:Grammar is the backbone of any language, and in this unit, students will learn and practice several grammar rules. One important rule is the usage of prepositions. Prepositions are words that show the relationship between a noun or pronoun and another word in a sentence. Understanding how to use prepositions correctly is crucial for effective communication in English. Students will learn about common prepositions such as in, on, at, with, and by, and how to use them in different contexts.Another grammar rule covered in this unit is the correct usage of verb tenses. Students will review and expand their knowledge of various tenses such as simple present, simple past, present continuous, past continuous, and future tenses. By mastering these tenses, students will be able to express actions or states in the appropriate time frame accurately. This skill is essential for clear and coherent communication.2. Vocabulary:Vocabulary acquisition is a fundamental aspect of language learning. In this unit, students will encounter and learn new words and phrases that expand their lexical repertoire. The focus will be on words related to daily routines, activities, and personal preferences. By incorporating these new words into their vocabulary, students will be able to express themselves more precisely and effectively in English.3. Language Skills:Apart from grammar and vocabulary, this unit also emphasizes the development of various language skills. One important skill is reading comprehension. Students will have the opportunity to read a variety of texts, including narratives, descriptions, and explanatory passages. These readings will not only enhance their understanding of the language but also improve their critical thinking and analysis skills.Another skill that will be honed in this unit is writing. Students will practice writing different types of texts, such as informal letters, emails, and short descriptive pieces. They will learn how to structure their writing, use appropriate vocabulary and grammar, and express their ideas clearly. Developing strong writing skills is crucial for academic success beyond the English classroom.Speaking and listening skills will also be addressed in this unit. Students will engage in various speaking activities, such as role plays, dialogues, and presentations. These activities will provide opportunities for students to practice their pronunciation, fluency, and ability to express themselves orally. Similarly, listening exercises will enhance their comprehension skills and help them develop an ear for the language.In conclusion, the "2b" knowledge point in the ninth-grade English curriculum covers various grammar rules, vocabulary, and language skills. Students will develop a firm understanding of prepositions, verb tenses, and expand their vocabulary. Additionally, they will enhance their reading, writing, speaking, and listening skills through engaging activities and exercises. By mastering these knowledge points, students will become more proficient and confident in their English language abilities.。

九年级英语九单元2d知识点

九年级英语九单元2d知识点

九年级英语九单元2d知识点Unit 9: Natural Disasters – Knowledge and AwarenessIntroduction:In the 9th grade English curriculum, students are introduced to various topics related to natural disasters. This unit aims to enhance their understanding of different types of natural disasters, their causes, effects, and prevention strategies. By studying this unit, students will gain important knowledge and develop awareness about the impact of natural disasters on Earth and human lives.1. Types of Natural Disasters:One of the key knowledge points in this unit is the classification of natural disasters. It includes earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, droughts, avalanches, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, and wildfires. Each disaster has its own unique characteristics and can cause significant damage to both the environment and human populations.2. Causes and Effects:Understanding the causes and effects of natural disasters is crucial in order to prevent, mitigate, and prepare for them. Earthquakes are primarily caused by tectonic plate movements, while hurricanes are formed from warm ocean waters. Floods are often the result of heavy rainfall or snowmelt, and droughts are caused by prolonged periods with little or no rain.The effects of natural disasters can be devastating. They can lead to loss of lives, displacement of people, destruction of infrastructure, and disruption of essential services such as electricity, water supply, and transportation. Environmental impacts include damage to ecosystems, deforestation, and soil erosion.3. Prevention and Preparedness:Although natural disasters cannot be completely prevented, measures can be taken to minimize their impact. Preparedness plays a vital role in reducing casualties and damage. Governments, local authorities, and communities should have effective disaster management plans and early warning systems in place.Education and awareness programs are also important. Teaching people how to respond during a disaster, providing first aid training, and promoting community resilience can significantly enhance preparedness. Furthermore, measures such as building earthquake-resistant structures, implementing flood control systems, and proper land-use planning can help reduce the vulnerability to natural disasters.4. Global Efforts:Natural disasters are not limited to one specific region or country. They have a global impact and require collective efforts from the international community. Various organizations, such as the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNDRR), work towards reducing disaster risks and promoting resilience.Additionally, scientists and researchers continuously study natural disasters to improve forecasting and understanding of their causes and effects. This knowledge-driven approach helps in developing strategies for disaster prevention and response.Conclusion:Studying natural disasters in the 9th grade English curriculum provides students with valuable knowledge about the world they live in. By understanding the different types of disasters, their causes and effects, and prevention strategies, students can develop a sense of awareness and responsibility towards the environment and human lives. This knowledge empowers them to actively participate in creating a safer and more resilient future.。

Optimists are always hopeful and positive. Pessimists always expect the worst and see the negative side of things. The optimist says, “The glass is half-full.” The pessimist says, “The glass is half-empty.”Dr. Seligman is a psychologist whose studies show that optimists are healthier than pessimists. Pessimists suffer from depression more often than optimists do. There were a group of men who had heart attacks. After eight years, most of the optimistic men were still alive, while most of the pessimistic men had died from another heart attack.Dr. Seligman also says that optimists are more successful. Athletes, politicians, and businessmen who have optimistic views of the world tend to succeed.Her e’s the good news: Everyone can learn to be more optimistic. The main way is to change the way you talk to yourself. When something bad happens to pessimists, they believe it will affect them their whole lives. When something bad happens to optimists, they see that it is just one event. They also believe that they can correct the problem, so it won’t happen in the future. Here’s an example:An optimist and a pessimist take a match test. They are both good students, but both of them fail this test. The pessimist thinks, “I’m probably going to fail every test. I’m never going to learn math. It’s too difficult for me. Nobody will like me because I’m a terrible student.” The optimist thinks, “It was only one test. I’m a smart student. I know I can do much better next time.”Be kinder to yourself. Be more hopeful. Always see the glass as half-full!READING PREHENSIONCircle the best answer for each question.1. Who is Dr. Seligman?
