Unit 3-1 ListeningThere are many forms of lives on earth, including human beings. Life exists in a variety of conditions. Some forms of live live in the watery environment, like the oceans. Other forms of lives can be found in very dry areas like desserts. However, for any form of live to exist, conditions must be right. When the conditions aren’t right, that form of lives can extinct. To become extinct means to die out completely.Conditions must be right for life to exist. Millions of years ago, there were forms of lives that no longer exist. When condition changed, this form of life died out. One extinction event happened about 250 million years ago. This is the largest extinction event of all time. Many forms of lives become extinct. 96% of all lives in the oceans died out. Most insects also became extinct. This event happened over a period of several million years. The causes of this extinction event are still unknown. Possible causes include largest volcanic eruptions and global warming. Some scientists believe that there were several causes. They believe that a series of events caused the extinctions. Scientists are working for better understand what really happened.In modern times, we human beings face changing conditions. For humans to live, we need clean air and clean water. Pollution is now a growing problem around the world. Pollution poisons the air and water that we depend on. Polluted air makes people sick and afraid to get outside. Polluted water poisons our food supply. As a result, we never know which foods are safe to eat. Human beings can be not live in a poisoned environment. Therefore, pollution is a major threat to our existence.Humans need temperature to be in a comfortable range. To be in a comfortable range means to be neither too hot nor too cold. With global warming, global temperatures are rising. As global temperatures rise, the polar icecaps will melt. As the polar icecaps melt, ocean levels will rise. Areas of some countries will soon be under water. People would be forced to relocated from flooded areas.In nature, even small changes can sometimes have large effects. It’s difficult to predict what’s going to happen. The entire ecosystem that we depend on is changing. Some of these changings are irreversible. Irreversible changes cannot be undone. Let’s hope the humans are smart enough to understand how the world is changing. With more understanding, we make better choices about what to do. We c an face the challenge of the pollutions and global warming. We need to do this before it’s too late. This planet of earth is our only home and we need to protect it.Unit 3-1 vocabularyLizard 蜥蜴Mammals are covered by hair or fur, have a backbone and warm-blooded.

A water molecule has two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.Substances like sugar have many atoms in their molecules.A molecule of sugar has many atoms, including carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Matter is made of molecules, such as H2O, which is the water molecule.Matter can be one of three states, solid, liquid or gas.Water and ice are the same substance, but they are in different states.These states depend on the temperature of the molecules.When we heat a substance, the molecules move faster and try to take up more space. When we cool a substance, the molecules move more slowly.When we cool a substance to its freezing point, it becomes a solid.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------In a solid, the molecules move very little.Their positions are almost fixed.To be fixed means that their positions don’t change.If we heat the molecules, they move faster and away from each other.The solid begins to melt, like ice cream on a hot day.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------At a certain temperature, a solid begins to change into a liquid.The temperature at which a solid change into a liquid depends on the substance.For water, the solid begins to change into a liquid when its temperature rises to about 0 degree Celsius.For some substances, such as steel, the temperature at which it becomes a liquid is much higher.对于某些物质,如钢,它变成液体的温度要高得多。

People are still interested in this painting 500 years after he painted it. Thought there are many theories, nobody knows who the woman in the painting really was.In 1516, Leonardo left Italy for good when the French King, Francis the first, offered him a position.

懂你英语L e v e l3U n i t1P a r t2 -CAL-FENGHAI.-(YICAI)-Company One1Level3 Unit1 Part2Listening: Time ZonesOur planet, the Earth, is the third planet from the Sun.It is a beautiful, rotating sphere.The side facing the Sun is in daylight.The side facing away from the Sun is in darkness.For example, when it's daytime in the US. it's nighttime in China.In fact, there's a 12-hour time difference between Boston and Shanghai.When it's midnight in Shanghai, it's noon in Boston.(Which side of the Earth is in daylight) (What is the shape of our planet)The Earth rotates from west to east.To know which direction is east or west, watch the sun.The Sun travels through the sky from east to west.The Sun comes up in the east and goes down in the west.Again, this is because the Earth rotates.It takes 24 hours for the Earth to make a complete rotation.And that is the length of one day.(What rotates from west to east)(How long does it take for the Earth to make a rotation)Because of the Earth's rotation, the Earth is divided into time zones.Some countries, such as the US, have several time zones.When it's 10 am in New York, it's 7 am in San Francisco.Europe and the US, are separated by several time zones.When it's 5 pm in Paris, it's 11 am in Boston.So there's a 6-hour time difference between Paris and Boston.One large country, China, has just one time zone for the whole country.As a result, at the same time, some parts of the country can be dark and the other parts can be light.(Why is the Earth divided into time zones)(Which large country has only one time zone)As you travel around the Earth, the time changes.The time of day depends on your location on the planet.When you travel east or west, you may cross several time zones.For example, if you travel from Beijing to Los Angeles, your cross 8 time zones. That means when it's noon on Sunday in China, it's 8 pm on Saturday in Los Angeles. For travelers, this means it can be very difficult to sleep after a long fright.The clock may say 8 pm, but for your body it's noon.This is called jet lag.(What changes as you travel around the Earth)(What happened when you travel east or west)(Crossing several time zones causes jet lag.)Listening: Kim's Movie Star DreamKim is a popular Korean actress. She is 28 years old, slim and beautiful.She has a large fun club, and her movies are very popular.Everywhere she goes, her funs want her autograph.But Kim wants more.

(When will the movie's story take place)(In the movie, what will do much of the work)The ending of the movie is still a secret.Even Kim doesn't know how it will end.But she hopes it will have a happy ending.She wants people to have a hope for a better future.(What's still a secret)(What kinds of ending does Kim want the movie to have )Vocabulary: Actions & ComparisonsThese people are having a meeting.The woman is giving a presentation.This person is having a scary dream.In his dream, something is chasing him, so he is running as fast as he can. This old man is a tourist.He is looking out the window of his tour bus.This young couple is in a art museum.They are looking at a famous painting.The Sun is setting behind the mountains.The sky is turning red.The longest line is the one on the top.The top line is the longest of the three lines.The shortest line is the one in the middle.The line in the middle is shorter than the other two.The bottom line is the shortest.The shortest of these three lines is the one on the bottom.The shirt on the left is more expensive than the shirt on the right.The shirt on the right is less expensive than the shirt on the left.The shirt on the left isn't as expensive as the one on the right.The shirt on the left costs less than the one on the right.Vocabulary: Seasons & WeatherWinter is the coldest season because the sun is at its lowest point in the sky. Winter sports include skilling and ice skating.Many people like to go swimming in the summer because of the hot weather. Spring is the season when the weather goes warmer each day.For many animals, new life begins in the spring.Autumn is the season when the weather begins to cool and the days begin to shorten.Autumn is when trees turn many colors and leaves fall to the ground.Rainy season is the season when some countries get most of their rainfall. Rainy season usually lasts for one or two months.Dialogue: Missing the FlightHi, I'm sorry to be late.What happened You were supposed to here an hour ago.Yes, I know, but I missed my flight.(How late is he) - He's an hour late.You missed your flight How did that happenI got on the wrong bus this morning, so I was late to airport.By the time I arrived, the gate was closed.What did you do then?I had to rebook my flight and get on the waiting list.(Why was he late to the airport)(What did he do when he got to the airport)Oh, that's too bad, at least you got here.Yes, it wasn't easy getting on the next flight.

Substances like sugar have many atoms in their molecules.A molecule of sugar has many atoms, including carbine, hydrogen and oxygen.-What is H2OThe water molecule.-What is matter made of -Atoms and moleculesMatter is made of molecules such as the H2O which is the water molecule. Matter can be in one of 3 states, solid, liquid or gas.Water and ice are the same substance, but they are in different states. These states depend on the temperature of the molecules.When we heat a substance, the molecules move faster and try to take up more space.When we cool a substance, the molecules move more slowly.When we cool a substance to its freezing point, it becomes a solid. -How many states of matter are there -Three. --What happens when we heat a substancethe molecules move faster and try to take up more space.-What happens if we cool a liquid to its freezing pointIt becomes a solid.In a solid, the molecules move very little.Their positions are almost fixed.To be fixed means that their positions dont change.If we heat the molecules, they move faster and away from each other.The solid begins to melt, like ice cream on a hot day.-How can we change a solid into a liquidheat it up.-How can we change a liquid into a solidcool it down. -At a certain temperature, a solid begins to change into a liquid. The temperature at which a solid changes into a liquid depends on the substances.For water, the solid begins to change into a liquid when its temperature rises to above 0 degrees Celsius.For some substances, such as steel, the temperature at which it becomes a liquid is much higher.Steel often melts at around 1370 degrees Celsius.-At what temperature does ice begin to meltAbove 0 degree Celsius.-What does the temperature at which a substance begins to melt depend onThe substances.If we continue to heat a liquid, the molecules move even faster.At a certain temperature, the liquid begins to change into a gas. For water, the liquid begins to change into a gas at 100 degrees Celsius.That is the boiling point of water.-What happens if we continue to heat a liquidMolecules move even faster.Inside a star, such as our sun, the temperature is very high. Everything inside the sun is a gas.According to scientists, there are over 65 elements inside the sun.

In fact, there’s a 12-hour time difference between Boston and Shanghai. Whenit’s midnight in Shanghai, it’s noon in Boston. The earth rotates from west to east.To know which direction is east or west, watch the sun.The sun travels through the sky from east to west.The sun comes up in the east and goes down in the west. Again, this is because the earth rotates.It takes 24 hours for the earth to make a complete rotation.And that is the length of one day.Because of the earth’s rotation, the earth is divided into time zones.Some countries, such as the US, have several time zones. When it’s 10 am in New York, it’s 7 am in San Francisco. Europe and the US are separated by several time zones.When it’s 5 pm in Paris, it’s 11 am in Boston.So, there is a 6-hour difference between Paris and Boston.One large country, China, has just one-time zone for the whole country.As a result, at the same time, some parts of the country can be dark and other parts can be light.As you travel around the earth, the time changes.The time of day depends on your location on the planet.When you travel east or west, you may cross several time zones. For example, if you travel from Beijing to Los Angeles, you cross 8-time zones.That means, when it’s noon on Sunday in China, it’s 8 pm on Saturday in Los Angeles.For travelers, this means it can be very difficult to sleep after a long flight.The clock may say 8 pm, but for your body, it’s noon.This is called jet lag.It depends on how far east or west you travel.Crossing several time zones causes jet lag.Kim’s Movie Star DreamKim is a popular Korea actress.She’s 28 years old, slim, and beautiful.She has a large fan club and her movies are very popular.

Other activities include getting dress and doing household chores such as doing laundry and paying bills.As you can see, for Martin, commuting is taking a large amount of his time.If he could reduce his commute time, he will have more time for other things. And it isn’t just the time.When the traffic is really heavy his commute is stressful.It will be great if he can work from home one or two days a week. He life willbe more enjoyable.And we look at Emma’s graph, we see she probably needs more sl eep.Perhaps, she should spend a bit less time socializing with her friends.On the other hand, socializing with her friend is something she really values.As for putting on makeup, she isn’t willing to change that.For her, exercising, socializing and staying beautiful help her deal with the stressful work.In conclusion, Emma and Martin both wish there were more hours in a day.This next graph shows how various factors compare important to 1350 jobs applicants.Applicants were between 20 to 25 years ago.They were asked to list which factors were most important for a good job.As the graph shows, money was the most important factor for 25% of the applicants. However, other factors are also important. The second most important factor was the work environment.In other words, for many, money is everything.People want to like where they work.In fact, if we combine working environment and co-workers, the total is 35%.This is well above the 25% for salary and benefits.Taking together, they are more important than salary and benefits.Career path is also important especially for younger applicants.They want to see that their job helps to build a successful career.For older workers, this may not be as important.Older workers often put the higher value on the balance between life and work.

Substances like sugar have many atoms in their molecules.A molecule of sugar has many atoms, including carbine, hydrogen and oxygen.-What is H2O?The water molecule.-What is matter made of? -Atoms and moleculesMatter is made of molecules such as the H2O which is the water molecule.Matter can be in one of 3 states, solid, liquid or gas.Water and ice are the same substance, but they are in different states. These states depend on the temperature of the molecules.When we heat a substance, the molecules move faster and try to take up more space.When we cool a substance, the molecules move more slowly.When we cool a substance to its freezing point, it becomes a solid.-How many states of matter are there? - Three. --What happens when we heat a substance?the molecules move faster and try to take up more space.-What happens if we cool a liquid to its freezing point?It becomes a solid.In a solid, the molecules move very little.Their positions are almost fixed.To be fixed means that their positions dont change.If we heat the molecules, they move faster and away from each other. The solid begins to melt, like ice cream on a hot day.-How can we change a solid into a liquid?heat it up.-How can we change a liquid into a solid?cool it down. -At a certain temperature, a solid begins to change into a liquid.The temperature at which a solid changes into a liquid depends on the substances.For water, the solid begins to change into a liquid when its temperature rises to above 0 degrees Celsius.For some substances, such as steel, the temperature at which it becomes a liquid is much higher.Steel often melts at around 1370 degrees Celsius.-At what temperature does ice begin to melt?Above 0 degree Celsius.-What does the temperature at which a substance begins to melt depend on?The substances.If we continue to heat a liquid, the molecules move even faster.At a certain temperature, the liquid begins to change into a gas.For water, the liquid begins to change into a gas at 100 degrees Celsius. That is the boiling point of water.-What happens if we continue to heat a liquid?Molecules move even faster.Inside a star, such as our sun, the temperature is very high. Everything inside the sun is a gas.According to scientists, there are over 65 elements inside the sun.

When you travel east or west, you may cross several time zones.For example, if you travel from Beijing to Los Angeles, you cross 8-time zones.That means, when it’s noon on Sunday in China, it’s 8 pm on Saturday in Los Angeles.For travelers, this means it can be very difficult to sleep after a long flight.The clock may say 8 pm, but for your body, it’s noon. This is called jet lag.It depends on how far east or west you travel.Crossing several time zones causes jet lag.Kim’s Movie Star DreamKim is a popular Korea actress.She’s 28 years old, slim, and beautiful.She has a large fan club and her movies are very popular. 文案大全Everywhere she goes, her fans want her autograph.But Kim wants more.She wants to be popular all over the world.Tomorrow is a special day for her.She’s leaving for Hollywood.She’s going to Hollywood to meet with some top movie executives.The meeting is scheduled for the day after tomorrow.If the meeting goes well, she’ll be in a Hollywood movie.This is her chance to become a star.She met the movie’s director last year.He came to Korea and saw her latest movie.After that he decided to use her in his new movie.
