Some information about April Fool’s DayApril Fool’s Day is on April 1st. It is traditionally a day to play practical jokes on others, send people on fool's errands, and fool the unsuspecting. No one knows how this holiday began but it was thought to have originated in France.The closest point in time that can be identified as the beginning of this tradition was in 1582, in France. New Year's was celebrated on March 25 and celebrations lasted until April 1st. When New Year's Day was changed from March 25 to January 1st in the mid-1560's by King Charles IX, there were some people who still celebrated it on April 1st and those people were called April Fools.Pranks performed on April Fool's Day range from the simple, (such as saying, "Your shoe's untied!), to the elaborate. Setting a roommate's alarm clock back an hour is a common gag. The news media even gets involved. For instance, a British short film once shown on April Fool's Day was a fairly detailed documentary about "spaghetti farmers" and how they harvest their crop from the spaghetti trees.Whatever the prank, the trickster usually ends it by yelling to his victim, "April Fool!"April Fool's Day is a "for-fun-only" observance. Nobody is expected to buy gifts or to take their "significant other" out to eat in a fancy restaurant. Nobody gets off work or school. It's simply a fun little holiday, but a holiday on which one must remain forever vigilant, for he may be the next April Fool!Each country celebrates April Fool's differently. In France, the April Fool's is called "April Fish" (Poisson d'Avril). The French fool their friends by taping a paper fish to their friends' backs and when some discovers a this trick, they yell "Poisson d'Avril!". In England, tricks can be played only in the morning. If a trick is played on you, you are a "noodle". In Scotland, April Fools Day is 48 hours long and you are called an "April Gowk", which is another name for a cuckoo bird. The second day in Scotland's April Fool's is called Taily Day and is dedicated to pranks involving the buttocks. Taily Day's gift to posterior posterity is the still-hilarious "Kick Me" sign.Unit 3(6 hours)I.

新编英语教程(基础英语)第三版4unit6课文详解及练习答案
Unit SixText I1.Pre-Reading QuestionsThink about the following questions before you read the text.1. How do people usually think of pearl? As an ordinary piece of jewellery? A thing of great value?A useless ornament? Give reasons for your answer.2. What might happen if a very poor person came into possession of a very large pearl of great value? Think of two or three possibilities.For your reference(They are open questions. Let the students air their views freely and exercise their imagination.)2.The Main IdeaMuch of the language of the text is metaphorical, and that makes it difficult for you to understand the meaning of the passage quickly. But it is far from incomprehensible. Go over the text once, not too rapidly, and see how much you understand at first reading.Now answer the following questions:1.What point is made about the news in a town?2.What was the news in the town?3.Who were particularly interested in Kino’s pearl?For your referenceAnswers:1.It travels fast.2.That Kino had found the Pearl of the World.3.The priest, the shopkeepers, the doctor, the beggars, the agents of the buyer of pearls.3.Background Notes(1) colonial animalA colonial animal is an association of individual organisms that are incompletely separated. Life forms such as corals and moss animals are good examples of colonial animals. They are individual organisms that normally exist in mass of large collections.4.TextThe PearlKino, a poor fisherman, has just found a very large and valuable pearl and is going to the nearest town to sell it. He needs money urgently to get medical help for his baby who has just been stung by a scorpion. Before Kino found the pearl, the only doctor available had refused to treat the baby because Kino could not afford to pay for the treatment.A town is a thing like a colonial animal. A town has a nervous system and a head and shoulders and feet. (1)A town is a thing separate from all other towns, so that there are no two towns alike. (2)And a town has a whole emotion. How news travels through a town is a mystery not easily to be solved. News seems to move faster than small boys can (1)scramble and (2)dart to tell it, (3)faster than women can call it over the fences.(4)Before Kino and Juana and the other fishers had come to Kino’s brush house, the nerves of the town were pulsing and (3)vibrating with the news — Kino had found the Pearl of the World. Before panting little boys could strangle out the words, their mothers knew it. (5)The news swept on past the brush houses, and it washed in a foaming wave into the town of stone and plaster. It came to the priest walking in his garden, and it put a thoughtful look in his eyes and a memory of certain repairs necessary to the church. He wondered what the pearl would be worth. And he wondered whether he had baptized Kino’s baby, or married him (6)for that matter. The news came to the shopkeepers and they looked at men’s clothes that had not sold so well.The news came to the doctor where he sat with a woman whose illness was age, thoughneither she nor the doctor would admit it. And when it was made plain who Kino was, the doctor grew (4)stern and (5)judicious at the same time. “He is (7)a client of mine,” the doctor said. “I am treating his child for a scorpion sting.” And the doctor’s eyes rolled up a little in their fat hammocks and he thought of Paris. He remembered the room he had lived in there as a great and (6)luxurious place. The doctor looked past his (7)aged patient and saw himself sitting in a restaurant in Paris and a waiter was just opening a bottle of wine.The news came early to the beggars in front of the church, and it made them giggle a little with pleasure, for they knew that (8)there is no (8)alms-giver in the world like a poor man who is suddenly lucky.Kino has found the Pearl of the World. In the town, in little offices, sat the men who bought pearls from the fishers. They waited in their chairs until the pearls came in, and then they (9)cackled and fought and shouted and threatened until they reached the lowest price the fisherman would stand. But there was a price below which they dared not go, for it had happened that a fisherman in despair had given his pearls to the church. And when the buying was over, these buyers sat alone and their fingers played (10)restlessly with the pearls, and they wished they owned the pearls. For there were not many buyers really — there was only one, and he kept these agents in separate offices to give a (9)(11)semblance of competition. The news came to these men, and their eyes (12)squinted and (10)their finger-tips burned a little, and each one thought how the (13)patron could not live forever and someone had to take his place. And each one thought how with some capital he could get a new start.All manner of people grew interested in Kino — people with things to sell and people with favors to ask. Kino had found the Pearl of the World. (11)The essence of pearl mixed with essence of men and a curious dark (14)residue was (15)precipitated. Every man suddenly became related to Kino’s pearl, and Kino’s pearl went into the dreams, the speculations, the schemes, the plans, the futures, the wishes, the needs, the lusts, the hungers, of everyone, and only one person stood in the way and that was Kino, so that he became curiously every man’s enemy. The news stirred up something infinitely black and evil in the town; (12)the black (16)distillate was like the scorpion, or like hunger in the smell of food, or like loneliness when love is (17)withheld. The poison sacs of the town began to manufacture (18)venom, and (13)the town (19)swelled and (20)puffed with the pressure of it.By John Steinbeck (an excerpt)Words and phrases: (点击文中红色单词或词组，出现该红色部分及e.g.字样，再单击e.g. ，出现例句)1.scramble:v. move somewhere in a hurried awkward waye.g. The man scrambled to his feet(=stood up very quickly and awkwardly)and hurried intothe kitchen.Your students may scramble up the bank of the river to follow you.2.dart: v. move suddenly and quickly in a particular directione.g. His teacher darted forward and pulled him away from the fire.The guard pulls the fire alarm, and the elevator stops, giving the passengers time todart down the stairwell.3.vibrate: v. shake quickly and continuously with very small movementse.g. The floor was vibrating to the beat of the music.The sea began to vibrate with waves that spread out in a circle.4.stern: a. serious and strict, and showing strong disapproval of someone's behaviore.g. Father looked stern at us for a while, and then we went to watch him hunt.Now it takes a stern soul to resist the temptation to check the headlines at least oncewhile you're away.5.judicious: a. done in a sensible and careful waye.g. In an environment of multiple campaigns promoting judicious antibiotic use in children,identification of effective strategies is important.Meditators should learn how to be judicious without being judgmental.6.luxurious: a. very expensive, beautiful, and comfortablee.g. She tried hard to retrieve her luxurious life.The luxurious liner is cleaving through the waves.7.aged: a. advanced in yearse.g. I well remember taking my aged grandfather across a road.He is aged, but his memory is still good.8.alms-giver: n. people who give money, food etc. to poor peoplee.g. But William is an entrepreneur, not just an alms-giver.There can be no friendship between a beggar and an alms-giver.9.cackle: v. laugh in a loud unpleasant way, making short high soundse.g. The women cackled when they saw the movie star step out of the limousine.The teacher let us cut the cackle in the class.10.restlessly: adv. act unwillingly to keep still or stay where a person is, especially because heor she is bored, impatient, or dissatisfied, and wants to do something elsee.g. I bought a rose and restlessly searched for her in the restaurant.As for poor Leo, after turning restlessly for hours, at last he had dropped off into asleep or stupor.11.semblance: n. a situation, condition etc. that is close to or similar to a particular one, usuallya good onee.g. After the war, life returned to a semblance of normality.Pursuing name brands can only create the semblance of wealth, not win actual respect.12.squint: v. look at something with eyes partly closed in order to see bettere.g. He also seems to be slightly blinded by the sun, causing him to squint.Increase the text size if you can.

A town is a thing separate from all other townsA town is detached from / apart from all other towns; in other words, each town is a separateentity, not joined to or connected with any other town.2.And a town has a whole emotion.This is an example of metaphor. A town is compared to a living being with feelings of all kinds — love, joy, hate, fear, grief, etc.3.faster than women can call it over the fencesfaster than women can talk about it to their neighbours over the fences that separate theirhomes4.Before ... the nerves of the town were pulsing and vibrating with the news — Kino hadfound the Pearl of the World.Before ... the town was alive with the news that Kino had found the Pearl of the World. Here the author wants to show us how fast news travelled. Kino found the Pearl of the World when he was out fishing, but before he reached home, the news had already spread through thewhole town and was on everyone’s lips.5.The news swept on past the brush houses and it washed in a foaming wave into the townof stone and plaster.The brush houses, referring to the houses in the area where the poor fishermen live, which is presumably just outside the town, form a strong contrast with the town of stone and plaster, where the priest, shopkeepers, doctor, and pearl buyers live. Note also how the author uses the figurative language to make the scene more vivid, comparing the news to a body ofwater that swept on and washed in a foaming wave.6.for that matterThis phrase gives emphasis to what he had said. In other words, if he had baptized Kino’s baby or had married him, Kino would be grateful to him and would show him his gratitude.7. a client of mineA client is a person who gets help or advice from any kind of professional. Usually, however,a lawyer has a “client”, whereas a doctor has a “patient” and a shopkeeper has a “customer”.8.there’s no alms-giver in the world like a poor man who is suddenly luckyA poor man who becomes suddenly rich is more generous than any alms-giver.alms — money, clothes or food given to the poor (usually money)Alms has only one form for both singular and plural.Other examples of nouns with plural forms:earnings, savings, surroundings, belongings, goods, remains, headquarters, thanks9. a semblance of competitionan outward appearance of competition that aimed to fool the fishermen10.their finger-tips burned a littleeach of them felt a little uneasy, hoping to start a pearl buying business of his own11.The essence of pearl mixed with essence of men and a curious dark residue wasprecipitated.The great value of the pearl and man’s insatiable desire to possess wealth combine to form a strange sort of wickedness / a strange wicked greed quickly.12.the black distillatea metaphor for the deep, evil feelings and desires of people who were affected by the news13.the town swelled and puffedthe town became vain and conceited / was filled with self-interest and vanityments on the TextThis excerpt is a good example of creativity in writing. It describes the psychology of various kinds of people just before Kino, a poor fisherman, goes to the town to sell the Pearl of the World, which he has found in the sea. The writer, through his excellent use of language, sets the scene for Kino’s arrival in the town and the reader is likely to anticipate with interest the meeting between him and the pearl buyers.What makes it possible for the writer to produce such vivid and immediate description, which leaves the reader with a profound impression of the town, its people and the forces at work in it?1. His close contact with and awareness of different types of people.2. His thorough and profound understanding of “human nature”.3. His keen power of observation and active imagination.4. His effective use of language.6.ExercisesA. Answer the following questions.(先单击出现黑色问题, 后单击出现蓝色答案)1. At what point in the story is the scene of this extract set?It is set before the arrival in town of the central figure, Kino. Kino is going to sell his newly found Pearl of the World.2. What personal details do we know about Kino?Kino is a poor fisherman who lives in a brush house. He has a child. He is in great need of money because his child has been stung by a scorpion and needs treatment. He is eager to sell the pearltoget money to pay for medical treatment of the sting.3. Why does the writer tell us that the shopkeepers looked at men’s clothes that had not sold so well?The shopkeepers are concerned about their business which has not been brisk, so there are a lot of men’s clothes in stock. When they learn that Kino has found a valuable pearl, they think of Kino as a possible buyer of the men’s clothes. Steinbeck tells us about the shopkeepers as an illustration of the effect of Kino’s find on other people.4. What details are given to describe the doctor’s appearance and his thoughts?Why does the writer want to supply us with such information?The doctor “grew stern and judicious at the same time” and his “eyes rolled up a little in their fat hammocks”, which suggests that he is immediately aware of what treating Kino’s child might mean for him. He thinks of Paris, recalling his room there as “a great and luxurious place” and imagines himself eating and drinking in a Parisian restaurant. The writer gives the reader this description to remind us that doctors whose work is curing people can be as money-oriented and pleasure-seeking as anyone else. This acts as a statement about “human nature”.5. How does the writer prepare the stage fo r a “battle” between the pearl buyers and Kino? How does the writer make the reader anticipate the meeting?The writer prepares the stage for the battle by telling us that the pearl buyers were experienced in bargaining with and “beating down” the pearl se llers. As Kino is presumably eager to get as much money as possible because of his child, the reader is likely to be looking forward with interest to the meeting of the two parties.6. Who do “the people with things to sell” and “the people with favours to ask” include?“The people with things to sell” include:1) the priest (who sells spiritual comfort)2) the shopkeepers (who sell men’s clothes)3) the doctor (who sells his medical skill)“The people with favours to ask” include:1) the beggars in front of the church2) the other poor fishers7. What does the writer mean by “The essence of pearl mixed with essence of men and a curious dark residue was precipitated”?The sentence can be interpreted as: The combination of the inestimable value of pearl and the fundamental human vice — greed — resulted in evil intentions and malicious plots. The writer wants to show that when people are obsessed with the idea of money, they are very likely to do evil things.B. Explain the following in your own words.(先单击出现黑色问题, 后单击出现蓝色答案)1. Before panting little boys could strangle out the words, their mothers knew it.The mothers had already learned the news before their sons could stammer it out.2. The news swept on past the brush houses, and it washed in a foaming wave into the town of stone and plaster.The news spread from one brush house to another and continued to travel fast into the town.3. And when it was made plain who Kino was, the doctor grew stern and judicious at the same time.When the doctor realized that Kino was the man who had asked for his help, he became both serious(about the treatment) and wise / clever (about how he could gain).4. And the doctor’s eyes rolled up a little in their fat hammocks and he thought of Paris.For a moment the doctor’s eyes were focused on nothing as his thoughts turned to Paris.5. The news stirred up something infinitely black and evil in the town; the black distillate was like the scorpion, or like hunger in the smell of food, or like loneliness when love is withheld.The news caused a profound “negative force” to be at work in the town. This could be compared to a scorpion, which causes pain, or the hunger created by the smell of food, or feeling of loneliness which comes when love is refused.6. The poison sacs of the town began to manufacture venom, and the town swelled and puffed with the pressure of it.What acted as the “venom-producing bag” of the town, i.e., the increasing self-interest in the townspeople, began to create poison which afflicted the whole town with a negative force.。

Unit Five1.Movie ClipWatch the movie clip and answer the following questions.1.What does Jerry think of Dr. McClaren’s plan to get to Mt. Melbourne to search for hismeteorite at first?He is surprised and a little unhappy because nobody said anything to him about it before.What’s more, he thinks it’s too far away, and he hasn’t been to Mt. Melbourne since the beginning of the season.2.When knowing there is a major storm coming in, does Dr. McClaren want to give up and goback? Why or why not?No, he doesn’t because he wants to discover the first meteorite from the planet Mercury, which is important and meaningful to him.Discussion:If you were Dr. McClaren, would you go back to the field base when the major storm comes in? State your reasons.(This is an open question.)Script（From Eight Below）-OK. Lady Luck, in my corner.-What are we playing?-She is pretty.-Quarter in.-Quarter.-You’re going down, by the way.-You’re going down.-Crazy Katie, you’re going down.-Hey, doc, you want in?-No, thanks. I gave up gambling a long time ago.-Hey, you flew in with Katie, didn’t you?-Remind me how you’re getting home.-Say, Old Jack, you in or out, buddy?-Translation?-That’d be out.-So, Coop, how’s your new girlfriend?-How’s my new girl? I don’t know. How about hot?-Wow.-Huh?-Wow.-She’s a scientist too. At the Italian base.-Pretty and smart.-Smarts.-Yeah. Notice something missing in that picture?-OK, OK. I think ... I know you mean me. You’re talk ... The picture’s coming, of two of us, she’s sending one of the two of us, OK? Patience, Jerry.-Uh-huh. How many?-Two.-So doc, you’re looking forward to your first trip to Dry Valleys? It’s a pretty cool spot this time of year.-Actually, Dr. McClaren needs to get to Mt. Melbourne to search for his meteorite.-Melbourne, huh? Nobody said anything to me about Melbourne.-Yeah. Meteorite hunting is a pretty small world, and, uh, I didn’t want anybody to know where I was really going, ’cause I’m looking for something special at Melbourne, and the NSF let us keep it off the paperwork. Is there a problem?-Look, doc, let me show you something. I’ll show you on the map. This is where we are, right? OK.-Yeah.-Here we are at Dry Valleys. All the way over here, we are at Mt. Melbourne. Twice as far and the opposite direction. I’ve been over our route twice in the last week checking conditions, but I haven’t been to Mt. Melbourne since the beginning of the season.-Well, that may be so. But Dr. McClaren has traveled a long way. And if we can accommodate him, I think we should.-Andy, it’s the end of January. The ice is too thin and take snowmobiles would be too dangerous. There’s only one way to make that trip, that’s with the dogs.-The dogs?-OK. Will they be able to carry all my gear?-The dogs’ll be fine.-It’s really late in the season.-Jerry, last year we had the dogs out right up until the day we left.-All right, Andy. You’re the boss. I’ll get things ready.-Hey, you need some help?-No, I’m fine. Coop, say good night to Buck.-Uh, I’m to take a rain check, Jer.-Ah... Kids, come on! Let’s go! Everyone outside. Let’s get you tucked into bed. Come on.-Victoria, this is McMurdo Weather. Come in. Victoria? This is McMurdo Weather.-This is Victoria. We copy you, Mactown.-Hi, Andy. Steve. Checking status on your team.-We’ve got four at the base and two in the field. Over.-Suggest you bring them in. We have two massive low pressure systems moving south. Control wants you in early just to be safe. Over.-Copy that, Mactown. Over and out.-Get Jerry on the radio.-Everything points to the spot that we’re on. The next couple days are gonna tell us a lot.-Field base to Melbourne. Come in. Base to Melbourne. Come in.-Jerry? Jerry, do you read me? Over.-Yeah, go for Melbourne. That you, Katie?-Jerry, we got a call from Mactown. ... major storm coming in. Over.-Hey Katie, you’ll have to go again. We’re in a bad spot here.-Jerry... back to field base. Do you copy? We got a major storm coming in. Mactown wants you in right away. Over.-All right. Copy that. We’ll be back. When do we expect this storm? Katie?-Sorry, doc. Looks like we’re gonna have to pack up.-Well, when do we have to leave?-We leave first thing, tomorrow.-Listen, Jerry ...-You heard what she said.-Jerry, look. I cannot go back without at least trying.-Yeah, well, that’s not your call.-No. It’s not.-There’s a major storm coming in, all right? Not a minor one, but a major. Just you know down here there’s a big difference between the two.-My job as your guide is to get you back home in one piece, and that’s exactly what I’m gonna do. -Jerry, we’re talking about a rock from another world. This ice floe might give us the first meteorite from the planet Mercury. That could lead us to discoveries we can’t imagine. Now it’s like when you climb a mountain, you go up a river, the exciting part isn’t what you know is there. It’s what you don’t know. You know it’s what you might find, and it’s the same here. Look, I came halfway around the world to look for something that’s important to me. Jerry, please, you ... You gotta take chances for the things you care about.-Half the day on the east slope. But I want to be back on that sled tomorrow by noon.-I’ll take that. I’ll take that.2.QuotesRead the following quotes and tell your classmates which one is your favorite. State your reasons.The Earth has a skin and that skin has diseases, one of its diseases is called man.—Friedrich Nietzsche We don’t inherit the earth from our ancestors; we borrow it from our children.—David Brower If there can be such a thing as instinctual memory, the consciousness of land and water must lie deeper in the core of us than any knowledge of our fellow beings. We were bred ofthe earth before we were born of our mothers. Once born, we can live without our mothers or our fathers or any other kin or friend, or even human love. We cannot live without the earth or apart from it, and something is shriveled in man’s heart when he turns away from it and concerns himself only with the affairs of men.—Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings Be such a man, and live such a life, that if every man were such as you, and every life a life like yours, this earth would be God’s Paradise.—Phillip Brook The earth is the general and equal possession of all humanity and therefore cannot be the property of individuals.—Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy It’s always nice to be around kindred spirits who care about the earth.—Carol Nelson Nothing lasts for ever but the Earth and sky.—Kansas Life is fairly easy to create, but I think planets like Earth are going to be rare.—Don Brownlee Human activity equals a decline of the rest of life on earth.—Edward O.

It is situated in the Antarctic region of the Southern Hemisphere, almost entirely south of the Antarctic Circle, and is surrounded by the Southern Ocean. At 14.0 million km2, it is the fifth-largest continent in area after Asia, Africa, North America, and South America. For comparison, Antarctica is nearly twice the size of Australia. About 98% of Antarctica is covered by ice that averages at least 1.6 km in thickness. Antarctica, on average, is the coldest, driest, and windiest continent, and has the highest average elevation of all the continents. Antarctica is considered a desert, with annual precipitation of only 200 mm along the coast and far less inland. The temperature in Antarctica has reached −89 °C. There are no permanent human residents, but anywhere from 1,000 to 5,000 people reside throughout the year at the research stations scatteredacross the continent. Only cold-adapted organisms survive there, including many types of algae, animals.(2) Adelie LandAdélie Land lies between 136° E and 142° E , with a shore length of about 350 kilometres and with its inland part extending as a sector about 2,600 kilometres toward the South Pole. Adélie Land has border with the Australian Antarctic Territory both on the east and on the west, namely on Clarie Land in the west, and George V Land in the east. Its total land area, mostly covered with glaciers, is estimated to be 432,000 square kilometres. Adélie Land is a claimed territory on the continent of Antarctica. It stretches from a coastline area along the Great Southern Ocean inland all the way to the South Pole. This territory is claimed by France as one of five districts of the French Southern and Antarctic Lands, although most countries have not given this their diplomatic recognition.4.TextAntarctica(1)Seen from space, the astronauts tell us, the most (1)distinctive feature of our planet is the ice sheet of Antarctica which “(2)radiates light like a great white lantern across the bottom of the world”. This ice sheet covers 5,500,000 square miles (an area greater than the United States and Central America combined); (2)it averages more than 7,000 feet in thickness; it contains more than 90 per cent of the world’s ice and snow, and if suddenly it melted the oceans would rise to such a height that (3)every other person on earth would be drowned. Antarctica is in fact our planet’s largest and most (3)spectacular natural phenomenon.(4)Yet 160 years ago no one had ever set eyes on this vast continent, let alone set foot on it; and even today man’s (4)tenure of it is unsure and his knowledge comparatively slight. Tounderstand why, (5)we need to appreciate the sort of place Antarctica is.(6)People used to regard the Arctic and the Antarctic as much alike. (7)In fact their differences outweigh their similarities. The Arctic is closely (5)hemmed in by the populated (6)landmasses of Europe, America and Asia; the Antarctic in contrast is in splendid isolation, divided from the nearest land by (8)vast reaches of the most (7)tempestuous seas on earth. Another big difference is the climate. We are so inclined to think of both the Arctic and Antarctic as cold, that we tend to forget how much colder the latter is. North of the Arctic Circle tens of thousands of families live in comfort all the year round; thousands of plants and animals are able to survive; hundreds of children are born every year. South of the Antarctic Circle, in contrast, there is no (8)habitation that a man can describe as home; the only plants are a handful of mosses and lichens; the only landlife simple one-celled creatures and wingless flies; no human child has ever been born there.It is not hard to see why. The basic essentials to life are rainfall, warmth and a degree of stillness. The Arctic, at times, provides all three; the Antarctic seldom provides any — witness the descriptions of those who have been there:As regards (9)precipitation the Southern Continent is a desert with an annual fall no greater than the outback of Australia. The exact accumulation is difficult to measure because of the common occurrence of blown snow, but the central area certainly receives less than five centimetres per year; and there may well be places close to the Pole where snow has never fallen. (U.S. Weather Bureau)Antarctica is by far the coldest place on earth; weather stations have reported temperatures of –88ºC, more than 20ºC below those recorded anywhere else. In this sort of cold if you try to burn a candle (9)the flame becomes (10)obscured by a (11)hood of wax, if you drop a steel bar it is likely to (12)shatter like glass, tin (13)disintegrates into loose granules, mercury freezes into a solid metal, and if you (14)haul up a fish through a hole in the ice within five seconds it is frozen so solid that it has to be cut with a saw. (John Bechervaise)All those who have set foot in Antarctica agree that its main and most cruel characteristic is wind. (10)When we wintered in Adelie Land the wind on 5th July blew nonstop for eight hours at an average speed of 107 mph; (15)gusts were recorded of over 150 mph, and the average wind speed for the month was 63.3. In these conditions it was possible to stand for no more than a few seconds, and then only by leaning forward at an angle of 45º! (Douglas Mawson) It is worth remembering that wind is as (16)injurious to human health as cold; for (11)by disrupting the cushion of warmth which is trapped by pores and hairs of the skin, each knot of wind has an effect on life equal to a drop of one degree in temperature. So whereas a man can live quite happily at –20ºC in the still air, when the temperature is –20ºC and the wind speed 60 knots he will very quickly die. Small wonder that whereas in the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries man swiftly explored and occupied the rest of his planet, the southernmost continent remained (17)inviolate.Yet climate by itself was not the main (18)drawback to the unveiling of Antarctica; an even greater drawback, at least in the early stages, was the nature of the sea — the Southern Ocean —which surrounds it.By Ian Cameron Words and phrases: (点击文中红色单词或词组，出现该红色部分及e.g.字样，再单击e.g. ，出现例句)(1) distinctive: a. having a special quality, character, or appearance that is different and easy torecognizee.g. I smelt the distinctive odour of tulips.During the festival and celebration, you can appreciate the music and dance withdistinctive features.(2) radiate: v. if something radiates light or heat, or if light or heat radiates from something, thelight or heat is sent out in all directionse.g. The log fire radiated a warm cozy glow.Imagine your thoughts as energy waves that radiate out into the cosmos and then reflectback to you.(3) spectacular: a. very impressive or dramatice.g. This is a mountainous area with spectacular scenery.You wander off to one side, into the nave, and suddenly you come across thisspectacular altar, or a beautiful painting that was totally unexpected.(4) tenure: n. the legal right to live in a house or use a piece of land for a period of timee.g. Lack of security of tenure was a reason for many families becoming homeless.Land tenure is a leading political issue in many countries.(5) hem: v. surround closelye.g. The canyon is hemmed in by towering walls of rock.The space that the buildings hem in is enclosed by glass, a handy way to connect the setwhile preserving their individual identities and creating a handsome weatherproofcourtyard.(6) landmass: n. a large area of land such as a continente.g. The visitors to the snow-covered landmass are endangering not just the Antarctic regionby their actions, but also the rest of the world.However, the main landmass that we know as China has always been affected, andcontinues to be so today, by Chinese societies well beyond its own borders.(7) tempestuous: a. very rough and violent sea or winde.g. But the sea in those old times, heaved, swelled, and foamed, very much at its own will,or subject only to the tempestuous wind, with hardly any attempts at regulation byhuman law.But it will calm the swell and heaving of thy passion, like oil thrown on the waves of atempestuous sea.(8) habitation: n. the native habitat or home of an animal or plante.g. Excavation work on the bypass also revealed signs of human habitation in the area from6, 000 years ago.It’s a surface craft above water that’s a temporary step to human underwater habitation.(9) precipitation: n. rain, snow etc. that falls on the ground, or the amount of rain, snow etc. thatfallse.g. More contamination entered the sea through fallout from the air, and throughprecipitation runoff.It plays an increasingly important part in meteorology for cloud, precipitation, hail andthunderstorm detection as well as the navigation of aircraft and ships.(10) obscure: v. prevent something from being seen or heard clearlye.g. But nothing could obscure the fact that the crowds here have witnessed some superbplay.Trees obscured her vision;

The writer uses the technique of stating the central theme at the beginning of the text toarouse the reader’s interest and presents a striking description of Antarctica — the subject under discussion.2. He supports his views with a great deal of concrete data, statistics and facts to make hiswriting more convincing.3. He throws new light upon two things by showing how they are alike and yet verydifferent.4. The writer directly quotes those who have been to the Antarctic to give more authority tohis explanation of the reasons why the differences between the Arctic and the Antarcticoutweigh their similarities.5. The writer provides us with a striking conclusion.6. He also uses parallel structures as an effective way of describing what life in theAntarctic is like.6.ExercisesA. Answer the following questions.(先单击出现黑色问题, 后单击出现蓝色答案)1. According to the writer, will the ice sheet of Antarctica one day melt?The writer does not indicate that the ice sheet will one day melt. As a matter of fact, he uses the past tense to express the unreal condition contrary to present facts. He only claims what would happen if it melted now.2. Why does the writer say that Antarctica is in fact our planet’s largest and most spectacular natural phenomenon?Antarctica is actually a vast ice sheet with an area of 5,500,000 square miles, which has an average thickness of 7,000 feet. It “radiates light like a great white lantern across the bottom of the world”. Its size and appearance suggest to the writer that it is not only the largest but also the most spectacular natural phenomenon on earth.3. What does the writer mean by “a degree of stillness”?He means “sometimes there is no wind”.4. What are the similarities and differences between the Arctic and the Antarctic?The similarities:1) Both are at the ends of the earth’s axis, one in the north and the other in the south.2) Both occupy a vast area of the earth and are covered with a thick layer of ice and snow.3) Both are cold all the year round.4) At both for nearly half a year the sun never sets and for the other half of the year there is utterdarkness.The differences:1) Geographical position:The Arctic is closely surrounded by the populated continents of Europe, America and Asia; while the Antarctic is isolated, separated from the nearest land by vast stretches of rough seas.2) Climate:The Arctic region has a cold winter and a warm period of sunshine lasting up to two months. The temperature falls below freezing for the winter months, but it is above freezing for at least one month of the year. In Antarctica, however, winter is almost continuous and the ice sheet which covers the continent is 7,000 feet thick. There is no month which is free from frost, and even the summer mean temperature is below freezing point. Winter temperature can be as low。

新编大学英语文化阅读教程3教师用书Unit4Warm-upStep1BrainstormingA cost-benefit analysis is useful when I am deciding whether to study at a university near my hometown or in a more distant city.It is convenient for me to take care of my family when studying at the university near my home.I can get easy access to transportation when going home on weekends or holidays.And the living cost is lower.It would be inconvenient to go home when studying in a city far away from home. But I can live independently and acquire more life skills,and perhaps I can get greater academic improvements.Weighing the pros and cons,I made a decision to go to a distant city for higher education.When making decisions in my daily life,I usually apply the cost-benefit analysis.For instance,when deciding whether to shop online or in a real shop,I would take into account the time and transportation costs of going to a real shop.Therefore,online shopping which saves time and does not require a commute is more appealing to me.Another example I’d like to share with you is applying a cost-benefit analysis on whether I should stand up and volunteer to answer the question or keep quiet in my seat.Answering the question benefits me by exercising my spoken English.The cost is that I need to think of a reasonable answer and if I make a wrong answer I may feel embarrassed in front of my classmates.Weighing the cost and benefit,I think that it is worth making a try.Step2Sharing your ideasIn daily life,another effective economic principle that can be used is opportunity cost.Opportunity cost is the forgone benefit that would have been derived from an option not chosen.To properly evaluate opportunity costs,the costs and benefits of each option should be considered and weighed against the others.So considering the value of opportunity costs can guide individuals to make profitable decisions.Take the decision of whether to go to university or get a job after high school as an example.For the average person,the opportunity cost of going to university is32,000yuan for four years.If you find a job and earn probably3,000yuan a month,you can earn144,000yuan for fouryears.It seems like that based on the above scenario,taking a job has a financial advantage over going to university.Does that mean we shouldn’t go to university?The answer is No.Not everyone has the ability to obtain a considerable-paying job out of high school.But,people who graduate from universities typically have long-term career salaries than those without a bachelor’s degree.In the long run,the four years spent pursuing a degree in universities benefit one’s career life more and would result in a higher financial benefit.Reading1Language focus1.optimal2.bulk3.demographic4.stagnant5.prodded6.transaction7.transmit8.enormousGlobal understanding1)starker2)mores3)saving habits4)economic context5)economic transactions6)Trust levels7)financial contracts8)willingnessDetailed understanding1.T2.F3.F4.F5.T6.T7.F8.TCultural thinkingA penny saved is a penny earned.People’s attitudes towards saving or spending differ.Why do some people save more than others,even if they have similar incomes?The traditional answer has been that there are idiosyncratic differences between individuals—some of us are frugal, and some are not—while countries differ on things like demographics, credit availability,income expectations,and uncertainty.All the explanations are true.But it might not be the whole truth.It’s also possible that our savings behavior is shaped by the cultural impact of which we were brought up with.Most Asian countries,such as China,Singapore,and South Korea have traditionally had high savings rates.All these countries are influenced by the virtue of frugality.Another example is that Americans who were descended from slaves save significantly less than other Americans,even if they have the same incomes.This shows the legacy of slavery is still with us:slaves could not own property and so never had a savings culture. This absence of saving has been transmitted down the generations.Reading2Language focus1.incentive2.restrictions3.inhibit4.convincingly5.susceptible6.incomparably7.abuse8.perceptionGlobal understanding1)biased2)life experience3)acculturation4)implementation5)inequality6)interventions7)alternative narrativesDetailed understanding1.F2.F3.T4.F5.T6.TCultural thinkingVersion1:Yes,I agree with the author.Changes in people’s mindset can affect the economy.For example,in China,there is a traditional economic concept of“living within one’s means”,so traditionally people would spend money according to their savings.But with the development of society,modern young people have started to accept the idea of “spending in advance”and are consuming with credit cards.This is a huge change in mindset and has had a correspondingly impact on the development of China’s financial markets.Version2:No,I don’t agree with the author.Economic development and changes in mindset are not tightly linked.With the modernization of society,the economy in China is constantly and steadily developing and progressing.However,people living in distant rural areas can't keep up with the pace of social development.In this regard,the poverty alleviation measures of the central and local governments can help them transform their production and lifestyle,thus changing the local economic situation and achieving the result of poverty alleviation and common prosperity.Integrated thinkingAnswer1:I think my economic behavior is quite similar to my classmates. We are all financially dependent on our parents.In order to live within our means,we all like shopping online.Through shopping online,we can search for bargains and save both money and time.And we rely very much on user reviews and recommendations when shopping.Some social apps enable influencers to advertise the products.We,as young Chineseconsumers,also like spending money on dining in fancy restaurants, having entertainment,and doing sports,which I think is Gen Z’s consuming fashion.Answer2:Chinese parents always say“Don’t spend all of your money. Save it for a rainy day.”When making financial decisions,the Chinese prefer to“save”rather than“spend”.However,the economic behavior of young Chinese has changed and is not that different from young people in other countries.Answer3:Traditional Chinese culture plays a profoundly important role in young people.Most Chinese young people are still very rational in their spending and do not spend money blindly on luxuries that they cannot afford.They are more likely to spend wisely when making purchase decisions.Culture mosaic1How different cultures deal with cashVersion1:Yes,I have a habit of saving.Saving money is important because it gives me more financial security,stability,and freedom. Having savings also protects me during financial emergencies to avoid debt and reduces stress.Additionally,saving money also enables me to help others and support my family to some extent.Every month,I will budget my living expenses given by my parents rationally and wisely.Apart from essential living expenses,such as eating and accommodation,clothing,and daily necessities,I will save up the rest money.Every year at the Chinese New Year,I receive red packets from my elders.I will put the money in the bank,mostly with low-risk capital preservation projects to avoid financial risks.The saving habit allows me to rely on myself when I need to spend a large amount of money,such as on graduation travel.Version2:No,I don’t have a habit of saving.The top reason is that I believe in the philosophy of“living for today”.I don’t know what tomorrow will offer.Therefore,I want to live each day to the fullest.I like to try new things and enjoy new experiences.I spend my money on hobbies,such as camping and rock climbing,which are very exciting but also costly.The other reason is that I have no financial income.My parents provide me with monthly living expenses,so I have to live within my means and don't have much money to save.Although I may find a part-time job to earn money after school,I choose not to do so since I am spending my time mainly on the study.After all,studying is moreimportant to me now.I plan to save and invest wisely after I graduate from university and find a job.Then I can be financially independent, wisely budget my income,and achieve financial sustainable development.2From anathema to acceptability:the story of life insuranceI think life insurance is very important for me and my family.As there are always unexpected accidents,fatal injuries,and diseases in our lives.Death,disability,illness,and other hazards in our lives are all called personal hazards.Therefore,life insurance,as a method to deal with personal hazards,is important.It helps to provide financial help to the insured person.It is traditionally taboo to mention illness or death in Chinese culture.But in modern social life,these risks inevitably exist.Over the years,my attitude towards life insurance has changed.Now,I am willing to buy life insurance for myself and my family.In this way,I can at least protect my property in case of accident or danger.3Money factsI’d like to share with you a new form of currency,call e-CNY.The e-CNY,or digital yuan,is a centralized,cash-like digital currency that is expected to be primarily used for retail payments in China.The e-CNY has been applied in over a million cases,covering utility payments, catering,transportation,shopping,and government services.It can be understood as the third largest electronic payment tool after WeChat Pay and Alipay.The most important purpose of the central bank’s introduction of e-CNY is to protect the sovereignty of the currency,as well as to enhance the RMB's position in the international market.It is aimed at creating a financial infrastructure that serves billions of people around the world, such as solving the challenge of sending money internationally to people all over the world in a convenient and efficient way.。

Unit4 [见教材P61]Writing Between the Lines阅读时要做读书笔记Mortimer J. Adler（U.S.）莫迪摩尔.J.阿德勒（美国）①You know you have to read “between the lines” to get the most out of anything.②I want to persuade you to do something equally important in the course of your reading.③I want to persuade you to “write between the lines.”④Unless you do, you are not likely to do the most efficient kind of reading.①你很清楚，为了能够最充分地理解，你必须要能听读懂言外之意。

①I contend, quite bluntly, that marking up a book is not an act of mutilation but of love.①坦白说，我认为，人们阅读时在书上做笔记不是毁书，而是爱书。
① There are two ways in which you can own a book. ② The first is the property right[you establish by paying for it], just as you pay for clothes and furniture.③But this act of purchase is only the prelude to possession.④Full ownership comes only when you have made it a part of yourself, and the best way to make yourself a part of it is by writing in it. ⑤An illustration may make the point clear.⑥You buy a beefsteak and transfer it from the butcher,s icebox to your own. ⑦But you do not own the beefsteak in the most important senseuntil you consume it and get it into your bloodstream.⑧I am arguing that books, too, must be absorbed in your bloodstream to do you any good.①人们可以通过两种方式来拥有一本书。
