品味人生1、不管鸟的翅膀多么完美，如果不凭借空气，鸟就永远飞不到高空。
想象力是翅膀，客观实际是空气，只有两方面紧密结合，才能取得显着成绩。
2、想停下来深情地沉湎一番，怎奈行驶的船却没有铁锚;想回过头去重温旧梦，怎奈身后早已没有了归途。
因为时间的钟摆一刻也不曾停顿过，所以生命便赋予我们将在汹涌的大潮之中不停地颠簸。
3、真正痛苦的人，却在笑脸的背后，流着别人无法知道的眼泪，生活中我们笑得比谁都开心，可是当所有的人潮散去的时候，我们比谁都落寂。
4、温暖是飘飘洒洒的春雨;温暖是写在脸上的笑影;温暖是义无反顾的响应;温暖是一丝不苟的配合。
5、幸福，是一种人生的感悟，一种个人的体验。
也许，幸福是你风尘仆仆走进家门时亲切的笑脸;也许，幸福是你卧病床上百无聊赖时温馨的问候;也许，幸福是你屡遭挫折心灰意冷时劝慰的话语;也许，幸福是你历经艰辛获得成功时赞赏的掌声。
关键的是，你要有一副热爱生活的心肠，要有一个积极奋进的目标，要有一种矢志不渝的追求。
这样，你才能感受到幸福。
6、母爱是迷惘时苦口婆心的规劝;母爱是远行时一声殷切的叮咛;母爱是孤苦无助时慈祥的微笑。
7、淡淡素笺，浓浓墨韵，典雅的文字，浸染尘世情怀;悠悠岁月，袅袅茶香，别致的杯盏，盛满诗样芳华;云淡风轻，捧茗品文，灵动的音符，吟唱温馨暖语;春花秋月，红尘阡陌，放飞的思绪，漫过四季如歌。
读一段美文，品一盏香茗，听一曲琴音，拾一抹心情。
8、尘缘飞花，人去楼空，梦里花落为谁痛?顾眸流盼，几许痴缠。
把自己揉入了轮回里，忆起，在曾相逢的梦里;别离，在泪眼迷朦的花落间;心碎，在指尖的苍白中;淡落，在亘古的残梦中。
在夜莺凄凉的叹息里，让片片细腻的柔情，哽咽失语在暗夜的诗句里。
9、用不朽的“人”字支撑起来的美好风景，既有“虽体解吾犹未变兮”的执着吟哦，也有“我辈岂是蓬蒿人”的跌宕胸怀;既有“我以我血荐轩辕”的崇高追求，也有“敢教日月换新天”的豪放气魄。
33 我是一只蜜蜂，在祖国的花园里，飞来飞去，不知疲倦地为祖国酿制甘甜的蜂蜜;我是一只紫燕，在祖国的蓝天上，穿越千家万户，向祖国向人民报告春的信息;我是一滴雨点，在祖国的原野上，从天而降，滋润干渴的禾苗;我是一株青松，在祖国的边疆，傲然屹立，显示出庄严的身姿。

Listen to the tape the first time, and try to tell whether the statements in part 1 are true or false.(Teacher plays the tape for the students to listen and finish the task.)(After listening, the teacher checks the answers with the class.)T: Now let’s listen to the tape again and try to answer the questions in Part 2.(After listening, the teacher checks the answers) ZXXK]T: While listening to the tape, you should not only pay attention to the contents, but also the pronunciation and intonation. The sentences in Part 3 show us the sequence. I will play the tape again, you should mark liaison and incomplete explosion in these sentences. Then practice reading them aloud.Step 4 HomeworkT: In this class we read and listened to two stories ,both of which are about the 1906 San Francisco earthquake. The stories are true and were written for the Museum of the City of San Francisco. The museum has many such personal accounts and photos at /1906/06.html. If you are interested in them, you can surf in the site I’ve given to you.Record after teaching:_____________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________The Seventh PeriodKnowledge:1.Learn how to make an earthquake plan.2.Learn what to contain in a personal earthquake bag.Ability:1.Train the students’ listening abil ity.2.T rain the students’ speaking ability.3.Learn to find reasons for their choices.4.Learn to sum up what they have learned in the unit.Emotion:Learn to coop erate with others.Teaching Important Points:1.

We have learned many things about it. Up till now, earthquakes are difficult to predict. We can hardly avoid an earthquake. But actually we can do things to reduce the losses of an earthquake. Let’s look at the form on Page 66 and have a discussion about the earthquake plan with your partner.( Ss give their answers)T: What should you do if you are outside?(Ss give their answers)T: What should you do if you are in the living room?(different answers)T: What should you do if you are in the house room?(different answers)T: Next we are going to listen to the tape and write down the three “things” that are mentioned.(After listening, teacher checks the answers with the students.)T: Then let’s listen again.

Deadliest Earthquake Fireballs and Animals Give Warning Though scientific earthquake prediction is in its nascent初期的）stages，（nature oft en gives some advance warning of an impending（即将发生的）earthquake.In a village outsi de of Tangshan，well water reportedly rose and fell three times the day before the earthquak e.In another village，gas began to spout（喷出）out the water well on July 12th and then in creased on July 25th and 26th.Other wells throughout the area showed signs of cracking.Ani mals also gave a warning that something was about to happen.One thousand chickens in Bai guantuan refused to eat and ran around excitedly chirping.Mice and yellow weasels were see n running around looking for a place to hide.In one household in the city of Tangshan，a g oldfish began jumping wildly in its bowl.At 2 a.m.on July 28th，shortly before the earthquak e struck，goldfish jumped out of its bowl.Once its owner had returned him the to his bowl，the goldfish continued to jump out of its bowl until the earthquake hit.Strange？Indeed.These were isolated incidents，spread across a city of a million people and a countryside scattered with villages.But nature gave additional warnings.The night preceding the earthquake，July 2 7th-28th，many people reported seeing strange lights as well as loud sounds.The lights were seen in a multitude of hues.Some people saw flashes of light；others witnessed fireballs flyin g across the sky.Loud，roaring noises followed the lights and fireballs.Workers at the Tangsh an airport described the noises as louder than that of an airplane.Earthquake and Quakeproof Some countries，such as Japan，have a large number of earthquakes.Earthquakes happen ver y quickly and violently.During an earthquake，there is often a great noise first.Then the eart h shakes terribly；many houses fall down；railway tracks break and trains run off lines；a g reat many factories are destroyed；thousands of deaths are caused，and many more lose hom es.Besides the great damage and deaths caused by the earthquake itself，other disasters such as fires often follow，more building destroyed and more deaths caused.It is well known of t he dangers of a possible earthquake，and for centuries man has been making researches on e arthquake.More than 2000 years ago，for example，a Chinese scientist named Zhang Heng invented a machine which could detect earthquakes，and this machine is still used by scientis ts today to detect and measure the strength of earthquakes.Now we know much more about earthquakes and why they happen，but we still cannot tell exactly when and where an earthq uake will happen，and cannot stop it from happening.So earthquakes are among the worst di sasters in the world.No one can stop natural earthquakes.However，scientists can help stop earthquakes destr oying whole cities and causing too many deaths.In those areas where earthquakes often happ en，they record mountain temperatures and take photos from the air and if anything starts to happen，they warn governments to be prepared for possible disasters so that emergency plans are put into action to lessen the disaster，probably saving many lives.。
