The first people to live in North America were the American Indians, or Native Americans. Modern scientists believe that the first Native Americans came from Asia 15,000 or 30,000 years ago across the Bering Strait from Siberia to Alaska. They did not live in one place, but instead were always on the move as they looked for food. In other words, the first American Indians were hunters who followed the animals — their food source — during time of migration from place to place. Together, the nomadic people and animals slowly migrated toward the south. These early inhabitants gradually spread out all over the North American continent (now Canada, the United States, and Mexico.)

下面YJBYS店铺分享有关圣诞节的英语课文，欢迎大家学习!Unit Five: A Miserable，Merry ChristmasTEXTA miserable and merry Christmas? How could it be?A Miserable, Merry ChristmasChristmas was coming. I wanted a pony. T o make sure that my parents understood, I declared that I wanted noting else."Nothing but a pony?" my father asked."Nothing," I said."Not even a pair of high boots?"That was hard. I did want boots, but I stuck to the pony. "No, not even boots.""Nor candy? There ought to be something to fill your stocking with, and Santa Claus can't put a pony into a stocking,"That was true, and he couldn't lead a pony down the chimney either . But no. "All I want is a pony," I said. "If I can't have a pony, give me nothing, nothing."On Christmas Eve I hung up my stocking along with my sisters.The next morning my sisters and I woke up at six. Then we raced downstairs to the fireplace. And there they were, the gifts, all sorts of wonderful things, mixed-up piles of presents. Only my stocking was empty; it hung limp; not a thing in it; and under and around it -- nothing. My sisters had knelt down, each by her pile of gifts; they were crying with delight, till they looked up and sawme standing there looking so miserable. They came over to me and felt my stocking: nothing.I don't remember whether I cried at that moment, but my sisters did. They ran with me back to my bed, and there we all cried till I became indignant. That helped some. I got up, dressed, and driving my sisters away, I went out alone into the stable, and there, all by myself, I wept. My mother came out to me and she tried to comfort me. But I wanted no comfort. She left me and went on into the house with sharp words for my father.My sisters came to me, and I was rude. I ran away from them.I went around to the front of the house, sat down on the steps, and, the crying over, I ached. I was wronged, I was hurt. And my father must have been hurt, too, a little. I saw him looking out of the window. He was watching me or something for an hour or two, drawing back the curtain so little lest I catch him, but I saw his face, and I think I can see now the anxiety upon on it, the worried impatience.After an hour or two, I caught sight of a man riding a pony down the street, a pony and a brand-new saddle; the most beautiful saddle I ever saw, and it was a boy's saddle. And the pony! As he drew near, I saw that the pony was really a small horse, with a black mane and tail, and one white foot and a white star on his forehead. For such a horse as that I would have given anything.But the man came along, reading the numbers on the houses, and, as my hopes -- my impossible hopes -- rose, he looked at our door and passed by, he and the pony, and the saddle. Too much, I fell upon the steps and broke into tears. Suddenly I heard a voice."Say, kid," it said, "do you know a boy named LennieSteffens?"I looked up. It was the man on the pony, back again."Yes," I spluttered through my tears. "That's me.""Well," he said, "then this is your horse. I've been looking all over for you and your house. Why don't you put your number where it can be seen?""Get down," I said, running out to him. I wanted to ride.He went on saying something about "ought to have got here at seven o'clock, but--"I hardly heard, I could scarcely wait. I was so happy, so thrilled.I rode off up the street. Such a beautiful pony. And mine! After a while I turned and trotted back to the stable. There was the family, father, mother, sisters, all working for me, all happy. They had been putting in place the tools of my new business: currycomb, brush, pitchfork -- everything, and there was hay in the loft.But that Christmas, which my father had planned so carefully, was it the best or the worst I ever knew? He often asked me that;I never could answer as a boy. I think now that it was both. It covered the whole distance from broken-hearted misery to bursting happiness -- too fast, A grown-up could hardly have stood it.NEW WORDSmiserablea. causing unhappiness; very unhappy 悲惨的merrya. cheerful, full of lively happiness, fun, etc. 欢乐的，愉快的ponyn. a small horse 矮种马;小马bootn. 长统靴candyn.

18第五单元Translation of Text A夜莺与玫瑰1 “她说如果我给她带去红玫瑰，她愿意和我一起跳舞。
”年轻的学生哭喊道，“但满院子都没有一朵红玫瑰。
”2 这番话给在老橡树上自己巢中的夜莺听见了，她通过橡树叶张望，心中诧异。
3 “在我的花园没有红玫瑰！”他哭着说，他美丽的大眼满含泪水：“啊，圣贤之书我已读完，哲学奥妙尽藏心中，然而缺少一朵红玫瑰却使我的生活瞬时暗淡！”4 “终于有一位重感情的人了，”夜莺说，“我曾日日夜夜为他歌唱，现在我终于见到他了。
”5 “王子明晚将举行一个舞会，”年轻的学生喃喃道：“我的爱人也将前往我若为他采得红玫瑰，她将和我一直跳舞到天亮。
我会揽她入怀，而她也会偎依在我的肩头。
但在我的花园没有红玫瑰，因此我只能独自坐那儿黯然神伤，心痛无比。
”6 “他确实是一个重感情的人，”夜莺说。
真爱是美好的，它价胜千金。
7 “乐师们将奏乐助兴，”年轻的学生道，“我的爱人将和着竖琴和小提琴声翩翩起舞。
她的身姿是如此的轻盈宛似蜻蜓点水般。
但他是不会和我一起跳的，因为我没有红玫瑰献给她。
”于是他扑倒在草地上，双手捂着脸放声痛哭起来。
8 “他为什么哭泣呢？”一只绿色的蜥蜴翘着尾巴经过他身边时问道。
9 “是啊，到底为什么呢？”一只在阳光下挥动着翅膀的蝴蝶问道。
10 “到底为什么呢？”一朵雏菊用低沉的声音对他的邻居说道.11 “他为一只红玫瑰哭泣。
”夜莺说。
12 “为了一朵红玫瑰？”他们叫道，“太荒谬了！”那本来就有点愤世嫉俗的小蜥蜴肆无忌惮的笑道。
但是夜莺了解男孩的悲痛，默默无声地坐在橡树上。
13 突然她张开自己棕色的双翼，向空中飞去。
她犹如影子般穿越树林，又如影子般越过花园。
14 在草地的中心一棵美丽的红玫瑰树傲然屹立。
她看到后立即向它飞去：“给我一朵红玫瑰，”她高声喊道，“我将为你献上我最甜美的歌声。
”15 但是树儿摇了摇头。
16 “我的玫瑰是白色的，”它说，“白如海之浪花，白胜高山千年积雪。

Lesson Five Angels on a PinTeaching ObjectivesMake the students understand the importance of education in life and make them think about what makes a good education system;AuthorAlexander Calandra is now Professor of Emeritus of Physical Sciences at Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri. The present text is adapted from “Angels on the Head of a Pin: A Modern Parable” which first appeared in Saturday Review. Dec. 21, 1968 and has, since then, become a classic (or an often quoted) case on the problems of American education.Cultural BackgroundWhy is the article entitled “Angels on a Pin”?The title of the text “Angles on a Pin” comes from the much-talked about question: “How many angles can dance on the head of a pin?” which is used to ridicule those people who asked meaningless questions about the Bible in the Middle Ages. It is also used ironically to describe the kind of questions that philosophers ponder考虑.Medieval scholastics were fond of debating such meaningless questions as “How many angels can dance on the point of a pin?” “Did Adam have a navel?”[′neivəl] n.肚脐and “Do angels defecate?”[′dɛfɪkeɪt]排便.The emerging出现sciences replaced such “scholarly” debates with experimentation实验and appeals to observable fact.DiscussionHow adults “kill” creativity?⏹Insisting that children do things in the “right way”Teaching a child to think that there is just one right way to do things kills the urge to try new ways.⏹Pressuring children to be realistic, to stop imagining.When we label a child’s flights of fantasy as “silly”, we bring thechild down to earth with a blow, causing the inventive urge to die.⏹Making comparisons with other children.This is a subtle pressure on a child to conform; yet the essence of creativity is freedom to conform or not to conform.⏹Discouraging children's curiosity.One of the indicators of creativity is curiosity; yet we often brush questions aside because we are too busy for "silly" questions. Children's questions deserve respect.Introduction to the Text1.Background Knowledge: This article was written at a time when the whole of the United States was thrown into a panic over the launching of the first satellite, Sputnik, by the Russians, because this seemed to prove that the former Soviet Union had left the US far behind in science and technology. Many Americans believed that there must e something seriously wrong with their educational system. The author, in writing this article, seemed to think that part of the nation’s problem in education was the traditional teaching and testing methods, which emphasized book knowledge rather than the students’ originality and creativity.2.Our Country’s Situation: Education is also a great challenge in our country. Problems are many. One of them is perhaps the fact that our education is too closely geared to tests and examinations. In fact, often our effort seems to serve the purpose of enabling students to handle them properly. Tests and examinations are necessary and useful of course. But their purposes are limited, and so is their usefulness. If they are overused, or if we take the means for the ends, they will lead to serious consequences. This text can give us some food for thought.3.Discussion: Ask students to comment on the existing testing and examination system in China, and have them discuss problems in our teaching methods and educational approach.Theme of the StoryPart of the nation’s problem in education is the tradit ional teaching and teaching methods, which emphasize book knowledge rather thanstudents’ originality and creativity.Structure of the TextPart 1 (para. 1): The author was asked to be a referee on thegrading of an exam question.Part 2 (paras. 2—5):The student’s way of solving a problem ofphysics.Part 3 (paras.6—10): The student’s flexible way of working thingsout arouses our awareness of the drawbacks障碍of the present-day education.Language studycall(1)make a call give sb. a callget/receive a call answer a callhave a call return a callphysics: Note that it is used as a singular noun in spite of the plural form. Nouns like this include economics, politics, mathematics, mechanics.He asked me if I would do him a favor and be the referee(1)to do sb. a favor: to be kind enough to help sb.e.g. May I ask a favor of you?Would you please do me a favor and look after my puppy? .[′pʌpi] 小狗Q: what does this sentence mean?His colleague gave a student a zero for his answer to an examination question but the student protested. So his colleague asked him if he could help him our by evaluating the student again.He told me that he was about to give a student a zero(1) sb. is about to do sth.: sb. will do it very soonto be to do sth.: sb. will do sth. according to a plan or arrangement e.g. Y ou are right. I was just about to say the same thing.The Prime Minister is to speak on televis ion tonight.He insisted that he deserved a perfect score (1)to insist that: to say firmly and repeatedly that sth is true although otherpeople may not agree.坚持认为He insisted that he had seen me before. 他坚持认为以前见过我。

1.When I was 15, I announced to my English class that I was going to write and illustrate my own books. Half of the students nearly fell out of their chairs laughing.
How do you understand this proverb?
TEXT
Have you ever dreamed of becoming a writer, only to be put off by fears that you lacked the ability? If so,then reading Linda Stafford's story will have you reaching for your pen with renewed hope .
6. During the next two years I sold dozens of poems, letters, jokes and recipes. By the time I graduated from high school (with a C-minus average), I had scrapbooks filled with my published work. I never mentioned my writing to my teachers, friends or my family again. They were dream killers. And if people must choose between their friends and dreams, they must always choose the latter.

Fancy meeting you here.B: Oh, Ted. Good to see you again. How have you been?A: Pretty good. I've just returned from China, you know.B: Terrific! I'd really like to visit China myself one of these days. I haven't had the opportunity so far. Where did you go in China?A: Lots of places... world-renowned places like the capital Beijing, prosperous Shanghai, the historic city Xi'an — China's ancient capital on and off for several hundred years — and the scenic Guilin, and, oh, yes,"hot and spicy" Chengdu. I also visited many other places of historical interest and many famous mountains and great rivers, too.B: Lucky you. China's huge size and that rich cultural legacy of 5,000 years of civilization have always captured my imagination. I envy you.A: Well, China's tourist resources are inexhaustible and all that I have seen is only the tip of the iceberg.B: Which place impressed you the most?A: I would say the two-thousand-year-old terracotta warriors and horses in Xi'an. I was there exactly two weeks ago today.B: I read about them somewhere, and I've seen the pictures in National Geographic. Amazing... Unbelievable, I'd say.A: Yes, the Xi'an trip was quite an experience. I saw row upon row of life-size warriors and horses, so true to life. It was a breathtaking experience walking past them. Tell you what, no two warriors look alike. Each wears his own facial expression and has his own personality. And the horses... oh, they look so alive.B: Sounds fantastic!A: There was something even more fantastic than the terracotta army. Guess what...B: Hot springs? Pagodas?Giant pandas? I've no idea.A: Chinese food, authentic Chinese cooking that is unparalleled anywhere else in the world. I'd go back to China again just for those spicy-hot Sichuan dishes. There's really nothing like Sichuan food.B: You make my mouth water. I think I might also take a trip to China to see terracotta warriors and enjoy some real Chinese food.A: But if you say you will eat Chinese food, you're taking too much for granted. As a matter of fact, there's no such thing as so-called "Chinese food."B: I don't understand what you're saying.A: Let me put it this way. China is such a large country that there are numerous cooking styles that are vastly different from each other. One may prefer a particular Chinese food or a particular regional way of cooking.B: It's not easy to order food in China's restaurants, then.A: There is an easy way. For me, that is ordering Chinese food by the names of famous dishes rather than by any prevailing style. For example, if you like hot and spicy food and don't want to gain extra weight, you can order MapoDoufu, a famous dish of hot and spicy bean curd.B: Well, in that case I'll ask for your company when I've made up my mind to visit China.B1U4T1RTalking About Eating HabitsSituations:Mr. Green, an American professor teaching in one of the universities in China, is now having lunch with Mr. Sun, one of his colleagues, in the school canteen. While eating, they are comparing the eating habits in the two countries.Eating HabitsChineseAmerican1. lunch - meat or fish, some vegetable ricesoup with lunch, no water2. breakfast - people in the south prefer congee, a few pickled vegetable and some steamedbread while people in the north tend to have noodleds and steamded bread3. dinner - several dishes such as meat/fish/egg,vegetables, soup, rice beverage - only for special occasion no dessert after the meal(only for special occasions)4. less meat and a large portion of vegetable1. lunch - a sandwich or some salad or Burger and friesMost people prefer a soda with lunch2. breakfast - traditional breakfast includes eggs, bacon or sausage, toast or biscuits, milk, juice or cerealMost people have coffee, donuts and/or cereal on workdays and eat on the run3. dinner - Meat like meatloaf, ham, chicken, roast beef, steak. pork chop or fish; rice or potato, vegetable or casserole, soup with sandwich or pizza, or spaghetti with salad and garlic bread milk or juice with dinner4. more meat and a small portion of vegetableRoles:Mr. Green - very interested in the Chines diet.He asked Mr. Sun many questions and compares the Chinese diet with that of his country.Sun - pleased to introduce to Mr. Green the Chinese eating habits.He was also curious about the American food and asked Mr. Green some questions.B1U4T1RIHuman NeedsWhen we speak of a basic human need we mean something which is necessary to life, something that we cannot possibly do without. Food is a basic human need. Without it we would starve to death. However, if we have plenty of food，but of the wrong kind，our bodies will suffer from a lack of the right food．This is known as malnutrition．In primitive countries man's food needs are the same as in the more advanced societies like our own. We all need food and could manage to live a healthy life on the limited types of food. Primitive people eat only the foods which can be grown near their homes, whereas we eat foods which are often grown many thousands of miles away from our homes．Primitive people are satisfied with less variety than we are, and therefore we can say that although their needs are like our own their wants are different. Just think of the different types of meat we eat: beef, mutton，pork，chicken，turkey, goose，and rabbit．We could manage on a diet of one kind of meat, but how monotonous it would become! Even turkey, which most of us eat only at Christmas，would become monotonous if we ate it every day．Yet we cannot live on meat alone. We need foods like bread and fruit to provide us with other essential nutrients which we need to keep out bodies healthy.We can agree with primitive man that food is a basic need，but we differ from him in our food wants because of the wide variety of food we have available compared with him；we have a wider choice．Take fruit，for example. Not only can we enjoy the fruits grown in this country, but, because of modem methods of transport and food preservation，we can also enjoy the more exotic fruits from countries thousands of miles away, whereas primitive man is limited in his choice to the kinds of fruit which actually grow where he lives．The same is true of the second of our human needs．Clothing is necessary to regulate the heat of our bodies．Since we live in a temperate climate we need more clothes than people living in tropical countries, but less than people living in arctic conditions．Likewise，our clothing needs tochange with the seasons．In summer we need light clothing while in winter we need to muffle ourselves to keep warm.Shelter, the third of our needs，depends upon the climate, the skill of the builder, one's social position, and the materials available. The simple shelter of the aboriginal would not do for us，and yet it satisfies his needs．The three-bedroomed suburban house of the average family would not be grand enough for a very rich family, and yet the modern house contains many of the material comforts which were denied to the kings and queens of the old days．B1U4T1RIIBreadIn man's early progress toward civilization, there were many great steps forward —the domestication of animals, the invention of the wheel, the development of writing, the use of money, the growth of commerce and cities. But the most important step of all was the beginning of agriculture. If man had remained a hunter, none of the rest of his accomplishments would have been possible.We don't know how agriculture began. It is probable that the first crops that were grown for food were grains, such as wheat, barley, rye, oats, and rice. From these grains, one of man's most important foods — bread — is made.Bread is essentially nothing more than a mixture of flour and water which can be cooked and eaten. Flour can be made from many different crops. For example, it can be made from manioc root, or from potatoes or bananas. The Indians of the New World made flour from Indian corn, or maize, and people in the United States still like cornbread. No one knows how man discovered that wheat could be made into bread, though it is certain that the first wheat was wild grass. Wheat is the most important grain from which flour can be made. This is because leavened bread can be made from wheat flour. Wheat can be grown almost all over the world. The people of the New World did not have wheat until it was introduced by the Europeans in about 1530. It is a major crop in the Mediterranean countries, in France and England, and in Pakistan. It is a major crop in India and China, too, even though in these countries rice is the main food. Five countries usually produce a large surplus of wheat, that is, they grow more wheat than they need for their own use and are able to export it to other countries. They are the United States, Canada, Australia, the Soviet Union, and Argentina.Making bread out of wheat is a long and complicated process. First, the land must be ploughed. When the ground is ready, the seed is planted in the ground. In many countries, the fields must also be irrigated, because there is not enough rain. When the grain is ripe, it must be harvested. The first step in harvesting is cutting off the head which contains the grain. Then the wheat must be threshed, in order to remove the hard covering, something like a shell, from the grain. After the wheat has been threshed, the good grains must be separated from the hard shell. Machines do most of this work now.When all this is done, the wheat must be made into flour. This is done in a mill. The wheat is ground into fine powder between large stones. In early times, the stones were turned by water or animals; this is done almost everywhere now by machines. After the flour is made, it is mixed with water, yeast, and salt, and then it is baked.B1U4T1WI Fill in the blanks in the following paragraph with words or expressions, some of which will bring out the writer;s attitude to what he is saying. Working in groups of two or three, choose the mostappropriate from the list given below.__ , I enjoy talking about the weather. There is always something that can be talked about.

Presentation ProceduresLecture notesText: Some Strategies for Learning EnglishPart I. Background Information:1. Today’s English: Worldwide over 1.4 billion people live in countries where English has offical status. One out of five of the world’s population speaks some English. And at present one in five is learning English. With economic globalization and China’s opening up to the world, it has become increasingly important for the younger generation to master English. In a sense, English is not teachable, but learnable.2. Language learning strategies: They are used by learners to complete speaking, reading, vocabulary, listening or writing activities presented in language lessons.
