Unit 1 Our EarthListeningAudio Track 4-1-11. I’ve visited a few caves in Guilin. The rocks in the caves are in different shapes and colors. If you use your imagination, the rocks can resemble many different things. It looks like a whole other world.2. I went to the desert in Gansu once. As I stood in the middle of the desert, I faced endless sand and felt very small. By day the desert was extremely hot, by night it got very cold. I experienced summer and winter in the same day.3. To my knowledge, California has beautiful coastlines. People love them and thousands of volunteers often give up part of their weekends to keep the sandy Californian beaches clean.4. The Port of Shanghai is located at the mouth of the Yangtze River. It handles many millions of shipping containers each year. In fact it might even be the busiest container port in the world.5. Japan has many hot springs. Some of them are located in mountainous areas and are great attractions to foreign tourists. Supposedly, the hot springs have healing properties.6. The most famous mountain range in the world is the Himalayas. It contains the world’s highest mountain, Mount Everest (i.e. Qomolangma), which climbs to a height of 8,848 meters.7. The White Cliffs of Dover are one of the United K ingdom’s most spectacular natural sights. The cliffs are made from bright white stone. On a clear day, they are visible from France, approximately 30 kilometers away.8. Mount Vesuvius is a famous volcano in Italy, which has not been active for about two centuries. But people say it might erupt again, someday soon.9. Niagara Falls crosses the border of two countries, Canada and the United States. Every year, millions of tourists observe the beauty of these magnificent waterfalls. More recently, the waterfalls have become a valuable source of hydroelectric power.Audio Track 4-1-2/Audio Track 4-1-3Blake: What are you working on, Mary?Mary: I’m finishing my paper. It’s due tomorrow, Blake.Blake: What’s the topic?Mary: It’s about Greenland.Blake: Greenl and. Hmmm … that’s part of Canada, right?Mary: I think you need to study your world geography, Blake.Blake: Well, isn’t it near Canada?Mary: Yes, it’s off the coast of northeast Canada, but it’s part of Denmark.Blake: Oh, I didn’t know that. Well, what’s your paper about exactly?Mary: In my paper, I answer the question “Is Greenland really green?” In other words, is Greenland covered by a lot of plants and trees?Blake: Is it?Mary: What do you think?Blake: Let’s see … Greenland is in the Arctic Circl e —way up north. It’s cold, … so “Is Greenland really green?” I’d answer “probably not.”Mary: You’d be correct. It’s too cold there. In the north, a lot of the ground is frozen. The summers are short, so only the surface thaws.Blake: That sounds tough.Mary: It’s hard for the construction industry. It’s not easy to build in Greenland.Blake: It sounds so harsh. Why would anyone want to go there?Mary: There are big mountain ranges on the coasts. They’re great for hiking and outdoor sports. And there are lots of animals there. You can sometimes see whales swimming in the harbors. Blake: That sounds cool! OK, so if it’s not really a “green” place, why was it named “Greenland”? Mary: The first settlers wanted to attract other people. They gave it an attractive name.Audio Track 4-1-4/Audio Track 4-1-5Jay: Come in here, Elise. You should see this show!Elise: What is it?Jay: It’s called “The Titanic of the Sky.” It’s about the Hindenburg, a great engineering feat. Elise: The Hindenburg …Jay: You know, that giant zeppelin that crashed in 1934. Thirty-five people died.Elise: Oh yeah, I remember now. It was flying from Germany to the United States. It crashed as it was landing.Jay: Right. It’s so funny looking, don’t you think? It doesn’t look anything like the airplanes we have today.Elise: That’s true. Why would people ride in a zeppelin anyway? It seems so dangerous.Jay: Well, some people called the Hindenburg “man’s greatest achievement in flight.” They thought it was safe, I guess.Elise: Who rode in it anyway?Jay: Mostly wealthy people. It accommodated between 30 and 40 passengers and crew. One person said it was like a “flying hotel.”Elise: It sounds pretty great.Jay: Yeah, and it was fast. That’s why people rode it. They wanted to get to their de stination faster. Elise: Why didn’t they just take a jet plane?Jay: Elise! You know they didn’t have jets back then. Look, in 1934 it took five days to travel from Germany to the US by ship. The zeppelin could do it in half that time. It was speedy. Elise: Well, maybe I’ll sit down and watch a little bit. Maybe I’ll learn something …Audio Track 4-1-6/Audio Track 4-1-7/Audio Track 4-1-8Jack: I think we should buy a bigger car. Big cars are safer.Kayla: Yes, but on the other hand, they consume more oil.Jack: They also look really cool.Kayla: That’s true, but there are some SUVs which are not that big but also very beautiful.Jack: And I think big cars are more fun to drive.Kayla: But then again, it’s very expensive.Jack: Well, let’s get more informat ion about several kinds of cars, okay?Audio Track 4-1-9My country has two very famous buildings called the Petronas Towers. The buildings are made of glass, steel, and concrete. They were designed by an American architect, but he used a Malaysian style. They were finished in 1998, and they were the tallest buildings in the world at that time. Each tower has 88 floors, and is 452 meters high. I really like the Petronas Towers. They show both the modern and the traditional side of my country.Audio Track 4-1-10/Audio Track 4-1-11Modern buildings: We love them, we hate them.The world-famous Louvre Museum in Paris is almost 500 years old, and it faced a very modern problem: There simply wasn’t enough space for six million visitors each year. In 1989, Ame rican architect I.M. Pei designed a striking glass pyramid in the building’s center to be a visitor’s entrance and shopping arcade. But he also started an angry debate. Some people felt his glass building was a piece of art, like the ones inside the museum. Others said it was just an ugly, modern mistake.Kyoto, Japan, is the country’s ancient capital, and the heart of its culture. Its railroad station was too small for the millions of visitors. In 1997, the city completed a new station in a huge shopping center, right in the oldest part of the city. Designed by Hiroshi Hara, the building also contains a hotel and department store. Before it was built, critics said that the high, wide, modern building would destroy the city’s traditional look. On the other h and, supporters said it would bring new life into the city center.Audio Track 4-1-12/Audio Track 4-1-13Interviewer: What do you think is the biggest problem facing our cities?Erika: I think it’s overcrowding. Talk to anyone living in a major metropoli tan area and they will say the same thing. There’s no space. Even the suburbs are getting crowded.Interviewer: Well, in some places there simply isn’t any land left for building, right?Erika: Yes, that’s true, but you have to think creatively. You can’t give up so easily. Interviewer: Think creatively? What do you suggest?Erika: What I’m saying is that we can build more structures underground. We can add parking lots,malls, hotels and even apartment buildings. There’s plenty of space.Interviewer: Isn’t it expensive?Erika: Yes, it can be. In the past building underground has been very expensive. However, we have new technology that will bring the cost down. It involves using robots. You don’t have to pay robots a salary.Interviewer: Isn’t “building down” more dangerous than other kinds of construction?Erika: Actually, I think it’s safer than building skyscrapers, for example. Remember, we already do it. We have subways, and underground shopping malls. I’m just suggesting we invest in a variety of bigger projects and that we dig deeper.Interviewer: What would you say to people who doubt your idea?Erika: I can understand their feelings. Whenever there’s a new idea, it can cause controversy. But “building down” is not some kind of impractical idea. It ma kes sense. There is so much space underground: it can accommodate a lot of traffic, storage, and people. With the new technology we have, we’d be crazy not to consider the idea —it’s the wave of the future.Audio Track 4-1-141. deep cave2. arid desert3. long mountain range4. active volcanoAudio Track 4-1-15a. narrow harborb. long, sunny beachc. busy vacationd. high cliffsSpeaking & CommunicationAudio Track 4-1-16/Audio Track 4-1-17Bart: So what exactly did you do over the summer?Gustav: We worked as volunteers at Glacier National Park.Bart: I’ve never been there. What’s it like?Carolina: It’s beautiful. There are mountains and lakes ... and, of course, glaciers!Bart: How was the job?Gustav: We had to do a lot of physical work. It was kind of hard.Carolina: That’s true, but it was exciting, too! We actually saw bears!Bart: Wow! That does sound exciting. Maybe I should apply. I’ll need a job next summer. Carolina: Sorry, Bart, but you can’t apply to that program. It’s a special progra m for international students.Audio Track 4-1-18Conversation 1A: I’d like to live in a city apartment. It would be near public transportation as that would save a lot of time. I don’t want to waste time commuting several hours each day from home to uni versity. B: That’s very nice, but I’d prefer to live in the suburbs. The prices there are lower and we would be able to afford a house with bigger bedrooms.A: It would be cheaper, but don’t you think the suburbs would be inconvenient?B: Well, you have a point there, so we would need to get a car too.Conversation 2A: I’d prefer to live in the suburbs. We would enjoy the peace and quiet, away from all the city noise. Moreover, it would be a good environment for study.B: Even so, I think life in the subur bs would be boring. We’d have nothing to do on weekends.Audio Track 4-1-19I’d like to visit Angel Falls most because I have never seen a real waterfall. But then again, I’m a little afraid of heights and it is the world’s highest waterfall! The Andes i s the place I would least like to go to because I don’t particularly like hiking or trekking.Audio Track 4-1-20I think the Channel Tunnel is the most amazing feat. It’s hard to imagine a train running under the sea, but this is a reality. I think this engineering masterpiece really shows what can be achieved when two countries work together. There is now a high-speed rail service connecting the United Kingdom and France.Video CourseVideo Track 4-1-1Alejandra: One of the most beautiful natural wond ers I’ve seen are the glaciers in the south of Argentina.Nick: The Matterhorn, which is a mountain in Switzerland, is one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen. My dad and I climbed about halfway, and once we got there it started snowing so wehad to turn back.Catherine: I climbed up to Everest (i.e. Qomolangma) Base Camp. All of a sudden, you look up and there’s this huge mountain that everyone’s talked about, that everyone’s photographed, and you’ve seen what it’s like in pictures but you’ve never seen it in person.Kumiko: Mt. Fuji is really beautiful from far away. When you climb it, it’s just rocks and dirt … but it’s really beautiful from far away.Natalie: I went to Niagara Falls for a family reunion. It was one of the most memorable times of my life because I got to be around people who I love — my family. And it was also one of the most beautiful sites that I’ve ever seen.Video Track 4-1-2Natalie: I went to Niagara Falls for a family reunion. It was one of the most memorable times of my life because I got to be around people who I love — my family. And it was also one of the most beautiful sites that I’ve ever seen.Video Track 4-1-3Kevin: The most impressive man-made wonder that I have seen is the Great Wall of China. The Great Wall took several thousands of people to build, it stretches many, many miles throughout China, and it was made in a period where we didn’t have all the technological advancements … like cranes and lifts.Gian: Last year I was in San Francisco and I had a chance to drive across the Golden Gate Bridge. What an amazing feat of engineering! It gives you a chance to look through all of San Francisco and over San Francisco Bay and it’s just a wonderful chance to see the city.Woo Sung: I saw the Hoover Dam once and I didn’t like it very much. It was in the middle of the desert and it’s just very hot, and there wasn’t much activity going on … and it’s just a big concrete structure.Video Track 4-1-4Kevin: The most impressive man-made wonder that I have seen is the Great Wall of China. The Great Wall took several thousands of people to build, it stretches many, many miles throughout China, and it was made in a period where we didn’t have all the technological advancements … like cranes and lifts.Gian: Last year I was in San Francisco and I had a chance to drive across the Golden Gate Bridge. What an amazing feat of engineering! It gives you a chance to look through all of San Francisco and over San Francisco Bay and it’s just a wonderful chance to see the city.Video Track 4-1-5Takeshi: Man, look at that! In New York there’s always something being built. And everything goes up so quickly … you never know what’s going to be around next week.Roberto: Yeah, but on the other hand, sometimes I wonder about overcrowding. Maybe they need to start building down more.Takeshi: Building down?Roberto: Yeah, it’s when you build underground instead of aboveground.Takeshi: Nah, that’s too much like living in a cave. I love the skyscrapers! They are the most incredible feats of engineering!Roberto: True. And some of the first ones were built right here in New York City.Takeshi: That’s right! You know, I wonder what New York looked like before all these buildings popped up.Roberto: I don’t know, but I’d like to see this one when it’s finished.Takeshi: Yeah. I’ll bet it’ll be something fantastic!Roberto: Maybe … what do you think it’s going to look like?Takeshi: I don’t know … but you know what? I’m going to remember what it looked like. Roberto: What are you talking about? And why are you taking pictures? There’s nothing there. Takeshi: OK. You know how some people get famous because they have pictures of movie stars or performers before they make it big?Roberto: Yeah?Takeshi: Well, some buildings and architectural structures get to be famous too, like theEiffel Tower or the Empire State Building … right?Roberto: Yeah, and …? There’s nothing here!Takeshi: Right! But there will be. Someday this very spot may become really well-known — like maybe it’ll be some incredible hotel that the rich and famous stay at. And I’ll be the only one with pictures of it before it was built. Cool, huh?Roberto: Uh … you are too much. Hey, let’s ask this guy what your “famous” building’s going to be. (to passing construction worker ) Excuse us, can you tell us what this is going to be when it’s finished? Maybe a fancy hotel or something?Construction worker: Fancy hotel? (laughs ) No, this isn’t going to be a hotel. It’s going to be a parking garage.Roberto: A parking garage. Uh … huh. Thanks.Takeshi: Well … maybe … someone rich and famous will park here.Video Track 4-1-6Takeshi: Man, look at that! In New York there’s always something being built. And everything goes up so quickly … you never know what’s going to be around next week.Roberto: Yeah, but on the other hand, sometimes I wonder about overcrowding.

Thanks.Takeshi: Well … maybe … someone rich and famous will park here.Audio Track 4-1-21Takeshi and Roberto walked by a construction site and started talking about all the buildings that were being built in New York. Takeshi then talked about how much he admired the skyscrapers. Suddenly, Takeshi started taking pictures of the site, but Roberto couldn’t understand why because nothing had been built yet. Takeshi explained that he thought something famous might be there someday, like a fancy hotel where the rich and famous would stay, and he wanted to be the only one with pictures of it before it was built. But later, Takeshi felt very embarrassed when Robertoasked one of the construction workers what was being built on the site — and Takeshi learned it was to be a parking garage!Unit 2 Technology TodayListeningAudio Track 4-2-1/Audio Track 4-2-2Situation 1Man: Oh no!Woman: What happened?Man: I can’t believe it! I was sending a message and I accidentally clicked on “Reply to All.”Woman: So?Man: It was a personal message for my friend, Jerry. I wanted to send it to his e-mail address only. Woman: Oops.Man: Exactly. … Instead I s ent it to everyone on the list. How embarrassing!Situation 2Man: I see you have a new keyboard. That’s nice.Woman: Yes, the company bought me a new one.Man: That’s good.Woman: Well, actually … I spilled coffee on my old keyboard, and it stopped workin g.Man: Oh, I see.Woman: Don’t tell anyone. Drinking coffee near the computers is not allowed!Situation 3Woman: Have you finished working on my computer?Man: Yes, I have. I’m afraid I don’t have good news for you.Woman: Really?Man: Really. The problem is with your hardware.Woman: Oh. What do you suggest?Man: I think you should probably buy a new computer. This one can’t be fixed.Woman: Well, I have had it for five years. It’s time to replace it, I guess.Audio Track 4-2-3/Audio Track 4-2-4Conversation 1Pam: Well, Lynn, I must be going. It was great to see you —Lynn: Bye, Pam.Pam: What’s that?Lynn: Oh … that’s Ollie.Pam: Ollie? I didn’t know you had a dog!Lynn: Well, we don’t … really.Pam: What do you mean?Lynn: Come here.Pam: Oh my goodn ess. It’s a robot!Lynn: That’s right. It’s a dog robot. They call it a “dogbot.”Pam: How interesting! … But it’s a little strange, don’t you think?Lynn: Well, I wanted to get an interactive toy for the kids. They love it. So I’m happy.Pam: How much did it cost?Lynn: Don’t ask. It wasn’t very affordable. It’s cheaper than having a real dog, though. We don’t ever have to buy dog food! And the batteries are rechargeable.Conversation 2Juliana: Hey, Henrik. Look.Henrik: What is it, Juliana?Juliana: What’s that guy doing over there?Henrik: Which guy?Juliana: The one over there. Wearing a suit. He’s punching so many buttons on his cell phone. Henrik: Oh, him. He’s probably playing a game.Juliana: Really?Henrik: A lot of people have games on their cell phones. It’s really popular here in Finland. They play them everywhere.Juliana: Do you play them, too?Henrik: Yes, I do.Audio Track 4-2-5/Audio Track 4-2-6In today’s report, we look at a new technology called pervasive computing.Pervasive computing means putting tiny computers into everyday electronic appliances, such as toasters and microwaves. With pervasive computing, appliances can communicate with their users —and with other appliances! Some companies now sell pervasive computing products like a “smart” toaster. It remembers your favorite kind of toast: light or dark. Companies are designing a “smart” coffee maker and a “smart” clock. The coffee maker can measure the water and coffee. It can even put milk in your breakfast coffee and make black coffee in the afternoon. The clock will check the time on other clocks in your house, and give information about other appliances. For example, it can tell you, “Your coffee maker needs more water.”And that’s only the beginning. One company is now advertising “Save time —phone your washing machine!” Engineers are making a “smart” house. In this house, the lights, heater, and air conditioner change automatically when family members come home. This makes the home comfortable, and it saves a lot of energy. Pervasive computing could change many parts of our daily lives.But do people really want pervasive computing? Do they really need technology everywhere? One company asked people about their opinions on “smart” appliances. There were surprises. A “smart” refrigerator can buy more food on the Internet, but people didn’t want it, because it might make mistakes.“Pervasive computing is as important as a telephone,” says Rebecca Blair, president of InnoTech Corporation. But some of these products are not useful, or even practical. Companies should learn more about the technology that people really want.Audio Track 4-2-7/Audio Track 4-2-8The appetite for newer, smarter mobile technology is growing. Hungry consumers are no longer satisfied with making calls and sending text messages, and phone developers are taking notice. Your modern day smartphone is not just a communication device; it also offers a banquet of features such as a music player, gaming apps, Internet browser, electronic dictionary, camera, and video recorder.It’s hard to argue with the merits of having access to so much entertainment on the go. And it’s harder to argue with the convenience of having multiple entertainment and communication functions served up in a single device. However, some would argue that these phones are eating up too much of people’s time. It’s certainly food for thought. As phones become smarter they might indeed devour what’s left of our social and interpersonal skills. We’ll have to wait and see.Audio Track 4-2-9/Audio Track 4-2-10Local girl rescuedShe may have a broken leg, but she can’t be happier. Morgan Bailey, 11, is happy to be alive. Tuesday was like any other day for Morgan. She was at school. It was fourth period, and she was the first student to arrive in the gymnasium for her physical education class.Suddenly there was a loud noise.“There was a sharp cracking noise and then a loud boom. After that, I don’t remember anything,” said Morgan.The roof of the gymnasium had collapsed under the heavy snow. Morgan was trapped underneath. She couldn’t escape.“I woke up and there was a big piece of wood on my leg. I couldn’t move it. I was starting to get cold.”Fortunately, help was nearby. A new program using “rescue robots” was tried for the first time.”We were nervous about using the robot,” said Derrick Sneed, the man in charge of the program. “But in the end, the robot gave us reliable information. It went extremely well.”The rescue robot was able to go into the gym and locate Morgan’s exact position.“We send in robots first because it may not be safe for humans,” said Mr. Sneed. “Human beings are not as useful as robots in some situations. A gas leak, for example, could kill you or me but wouldn’t hurt a robot.”Although it didn’t happen in Morgan’s case, so me rescue robots can bring fresh air or water topeople who are trapped.Rescue robots go into rough, dangerous places. They work in life or death situations. They have to be durable.Doctors say that Morgan is doing well. She should be going home in two or three days. What is the first thing she wants to do after she gets out of the hospital?”“I want to meet my hero,” laughs Morgan. “That little robot that saved my life!”Audio Track 4-2-11/Audio Track 4-2-12An increasing number of companies and individuals are now opting to purchase virtual storage for their computer files and programs.Accessibility is generally cited as the single most persuasive factor when making the switch. Being virtual, Clouds can be accessed from any computer with an Internet connection, and at any time. For those with slower Internet connections, sophisticated software accelerates upload and download times.Cost is always a mitigating factor when it comes to choosing which technology solution to adopt. And Clouds offer maximum flexibility when purchasing storage space. No longer do companies have to make long-term investments in expensive server equipment. They can purchase only the space they require now, with the knowledge that they can easily upgrade and expand at any point in the future.Apprehensions, about the security of data, have now been put at ease as globally recognized software firms are building in the necessary security solutions.Audio Track 4-2-131. I used to type my term papers on a typewriter.2. I didn’t u se to wear scarves.3. What kind of computer do you use?4. I used my brother’s cell phone.Audio Track 4-2-141. She used the phone in her office.2. He used to paint his own house.3. Do you use a computer?4. I didn’t use to eat meat.Speaking & CommunicationAudio Track 4-2-15Lea: I hate writing term papers! It takes forever!Steve: You’re lucky, Lea. When I was young …Lea: Oh, I’ve heard this story before …Steve: Well, when I was young, we didn’t have computers. We used to write our papers on typewriters.Lea: Oh, really? That sounds difficult!Steve: It was, especially because I made a lot of mistakes.Lea: Did it take a long time?Steve: Yes. Computers are so much faster and easier to use.Audio Track 4-2-16Conversation 1A: I think television has improved our lives because we get to see news from around the world as it happens.B: Really?A: Yes! In the past people used to wait for days or weeks to read about overseas events, but now we can watch live news reports on television.B: But don’t you think people spend too much time watching television?A: Perhaps. However, I still maintain that some television programs, such as news and documentaries, can be educational and of benefit to people.Conversation 2A: I think cars have improved our lives because we can get from one place to another so much more quickly.B: No way! Cars are a major cause of pollution.A: Dear me! I hadn’t considered that.Audio Track 4-2-17The most fun product has to be the cell phone. I use my cell phone all the time. Actually it almost never leaves my hand. It’s a good thing that it’s thin, light and portable. I love that I can do all sorts of things with it. It’s so much more than just a cell phone. I take photos with it; I use it to listen to music, and sometime s I watch movies. It’s really handy for passing the time while I’m commuting. The only negative is that the battery doesn’t last long. It hardly lasts a day before it needs to be recharged. I should add that my phone is very practical, too. I use it to communicate with my friends and family. I can’t make long distance calls to my parents as it’s too expensive, but with my cell phone I can send text messages quite cheaply.Video Course。

Unit 1 Our EarthListeningAudio Track 4-1-11. I ' ve visited a few caves in Guilin. The rocks in the caves are in different shapes and colors. If you use your imagination, the rocks can resemble many different things. It looks like a whole other world.2. I went to the desert in Gansu once. As I stood in the middle of the desert, I faced endless sand and felt very small. By day the desert was extremely hot, by night it got very cold. I experienced summer and winter in the same day.3. To my knowledge, California has beautiful coastlines. People love them and thousands of volunteers often give up part of their weekends to keep the sandy Californian beaches clean.4. The Port of Shanghai is located at the mouth of the Yangtze River. It handles many millions of shipping containers each year. In fact it might even be the busiest container port in the world.5. Japan has many hot springs. Some of them are located in mountainous areas and are great attractions to foreign tourists. Supposedly, the hot springs have healing properties.6. The most famous mountain range in the world is the Himalayas. It contains the world ' s mountain, Mount Everest (i.e. Qomolangma), which climbs to a height of 8,848 meters.7. The White Cliffs of Dover are one of the United K ingdom ' s most spectacular natural sights. The cliffs are made from bright white stone. On a clear day, they are visible from France, approximately 30 kilometers away.8. Mount Vesuvius is a famous volcano in Italy, which has not been active for about two centuries. But people say it might erupt again, someday soon.9. Niagara Falls crosses the border of two countries, Canada and the United States. Every year,millions of tourists observe the beauty of these magnificent waterfalls. More recently, the waterfalls have become a valuable source of hydroelectric power.Audio Track 4-1-2/Audio Track 4-1-3Blake: What are you working on, Mary?Mary: I ' m finishing my paper. It ' s due tomorrow, Blake.Blake: What ' s the topic?Mary: It ' s about Greenland.Blake: Greenl and. Hmmm …that ' s part of Canada, right?Mary: I think you need to study your world geography, Blake.Blake: Well, isn ' t it near Canada?Mary: Yes, it ' s off the coast of northeast Canada, but it ' s part of Denmark.Blake: Oh, I didn ' t know that. Well, what ' s your paper about exactly?Mary: In my paper, I answer the question “ IsGreenland really green? ”In other words, is Greenland covered by a lot of plants and trees?Blake: Is it?Mary: What do you think?Blake: Let ' s ee …Greenland is in the Arctic Circle —way up north. It ' cold, … so "Is Greenland really green? ” I 'd answer “probably not. ”Mary: You 'd be correct. It 's too cold there. In the north, a lot of the ground is frozen. The summers are short, so only the surface thaws.Blake: That sounds tough.Mary: It 's hard for the construction industry. It 's not easy to build in Greenland.Blake: It sounds so harsh. Why would anyone want to go there?Mary: There are big mountain ranges on the coasts. They 're great for hiking and outdoor sports.And there are lots of animals there. You can sometimes see whales swimming in the harbors.Blake: That sounds cool! OK, so if it 's not really a “green ” place, why was it namedMary: The first settlers wanted to attract other people. They gave it an attractive name.Audio Track 4-1-4/Audio Track 4-1-5Jay: Come in here, Elise. You should see this show!Elise: What is it?Jay: It 's called “The Titanic of the Sky. ” It 's about the Hindenburg, a great engineering feat. Elise: The Hindenburg …Jay: You know, that giant zeppelin that crashed in 1934. Thirty-five people died.Elise: Oh yeah, I remember now. It was flying from Germany to the United States. It crashed as it was landing.Jay: Right. It 's so funny looking, don 't you think? It doesn th'e at ilropolaknaensywtheing like have today.Elise: That 's true. Why would people ride in a zeppelin anyway? It seems so dangerous.Jay: Well, some people called the Hindenburg “man'gsreatest achievement in flight. T”heythought it was safe, I guess.Elise: Who rode in it anyway?Jay: Mostly wealthy people. It accommodated between 30 and 40 passengers and crew. Oneperson said it was like a Elise: It sounds pretty great. Jay: Yeah, and it was fast. That “flying hotel. ”'s why people rode it. They wanted to gsetitntaotitohneifradseter.Elise: Why didn 't they just take a jet plane?Jay: Elise! You know they didn 't have jets back then. Look, in 1934 it took five days to travel from Germany to the US by ship. The zeppelin could do it in half that time. It was speedy.Elise: Well, maybe I 'll sit down and watch a little bit. Maybe I 'll learn somethingAudio Track 4-1-6/Audio Track 4-1-7/Audio Track 4-1-8Jack: I think we should buy a bigger car. Big cars are safer.Kayla: Yes, but on the other hand, they consume more oil.Jack: They also look really cool.Kayla: That ' s true, but there are some SUVs which are not that big but also very beautiful.Jack: And I think big cars are more fun to drive. Kayla: But then again, it ' s very expensive.'s get more iinofnorambaotut several kinds of cars, okay?Jack: Well, letAudio Track 4-1-9My country has two very famous buildings called the Petronas Towers. The buildings are made of glass, steel, and concrete. They were designed by an American architect, but he used a Malaysian style. They were finished in 1998, and they were the tallest buildings in the world at that time. Each tower has 88 floors, and is 452 meters high. I really like the Petronas Towers. They show both the modern and the traditional side of my country.Audio Track 4-1-10/Audio Track 4-1-11Modern buildings: We love them, we hate them.The world-famous Louvre Museum in Paris is almost 500 years old, and it faced a very modern problem: There simply wasn ' t enough space for six million visitors each year. In 1989, rAicmanearchitect I.M. Pei designed a striking glass pyramid in the building 'cesnter to be a visitor ' s entrance and shopping arcade. But he also started an angry debate. Some people felt his glass building was a piece of art, like the ones inside the museum. Others said it was just an ugly, modern mistake.Kyoto, Japan, is the country ' s ancient capital, and the heart of its culture. Its railroad station wastoo small for the millions of visitors. In 1997, the city completed a new station in a huge shopping center, right in the oldest part of the city. Designed by Hiroshi Hara, the building also contains a hotel and department store. Before it was built, critics said that the high, wide, modern building would destroy the city ' s traditional look. On the oathnedr, hsupporters said it would bring newlife into the city center.Audio Track 4-1-12/Audio Track 4-1-13Interviewer: What do you think is the biggest problem facing our cities?Erika: I think it ' s overcrowding. Talk to anyone living in a major mettraonpoalriea and they willsay the same thing. There ' s no space. Even the suburbs are getting crowded.Interviewer: Well, in some places there simply isn ' t any land left for building, right?Erika: Yes, that ' s true, but you have to think creatively. Yougicvaenup so easily. ' tInterviewer: Think creatively? What do you suggest?Erika: What I ' m saying is that we can build more structures underground. We can add parking lots, malls, hotels and even apartment buildings. There 's plenty of space.Interviewer: Isn it ex'pe t nsive?Erika: Yes, it can be. In the past building underground has been very expensive. However, we have new technology thatwill bring the cost down. It involves using robots. You don 'ht ave to pay robots a salary.Interviewer: Isn 't “ building down ” more dangerous than other kinds of construction?Erika: Actually, I think it 's safer than building skyscrapers, for example. Remember, we already doit. We have subways, and underground shopping malls. I 'm just suggesting we invest in a varietyof bigger projects and that we dig deeper.Interviewer: What would you say to people who doubt your idea?Erika: I can understand their feelings. Whenever there 's a new idea, it can cause controversy. But “buildingdown” is not some kind of impractical idea. It makes sense. There is so much space underground: it can accommodate a lot of traffic, storage, and people. With the new technology we have, we 'd be crazy not to consider the ideait 's the wave—of the future.Audio Track 4-1-141. deep cave2. arid desert3. long mountain range4. active volcanoAudio Track 4-1-15a. narrow harborb. long, sunny beachc. busy vacationd. high cliffsSpeaking & CommunicationAudio Track 4-1-16/Audio Track 4-1-17Bart: So what exactly did you do over the summer?Gustav: We worked as volunteers at Glacier National Park.Bart: I 've never been there.

It was kind of hard.Carolina: That 's true, but it was exciting, too! We actually saw bears!Bart: Wow! That does sound exciting. Maybe I should apply. I Carolina: Sorry, Bart, but you can ' t apply to that program. Itstudents.Audio Track 4-1-18Conversation 1A: I ' d like to live in a city apartment. It would be near public transportation as that would save a lot of time. I don ' t want to waste time commuting several hours each day from homveetrosituyn.i B: That ' s very nice, but I ' d prefer to live in the suburbs. The prices there are lower and we would be able to afford a house with bigger bedrooms. A: It would be cheaper, but don ' t you think the suburbs would be inconvenient?B: Well, you have a point there, so we would need to get a car too.Conversation 2A: I ' d prefer to live in the suburbs. We would enjoy the peace and quiet, away from all the city noise. Moreover, it would be a good environment for study.B: Even so, I think life in the subur bs would be boring. We' d have nothing to do on weekends.Audio Track 4-1-19I ' d like to visit Angel Falls most because I have never seen a real waterfall.

It' s hard to imagine a train running under thesea, but this is a reality. I think this engineering masterpiece really shows what can be achieved when two countries work together. There is now a high-speed rail service connecting the United Kingdom and France.Video Course Video Track 4-1-1Alejandra: One of the most beautiful natural wond ers I ' vseeen are the glaciers in the south of Argentina.Nick: The Matterhorn, which is a mountain in Switzerland, is one of the most beautiful places I ever seen.

The Great Wall took several thousands of people to build, it stretches many, many miles throughout China, and it was made in a period where we didn ' t have all the technological advancements like cranes and lifts.Gian: Last year I was in San Francisco and I had a chance to drive across the Golden Gate Bridge. What an amazing feat of engineering! It gives you a chance to look through all of San Francisco and over San Francisco Bay and it ' s just a wonderful chance to see the city.Woo Sung: I saw the Hoover Dam once and I didn ' t like it very much.

Takeshi then talked about how much he admired the skyscrapers.Suddenly, Takeshi started taking pictures of the site, but Roberto couldn ' t understand why be nothing had been built yet. Takeshi explained that he thought something famous might be there someday, like a fancy hotel where the rich and famous would stay, and he wanted to be the only one with pictures of it before it was built. But later, Takeshi felt very embarrassed when Robertoasked one of the construction workers what was being built on the site —and Takeshi learned itwas to be a parking garage!Unit 2 Technology TodayListeningAudio Track 4-2-1/Audio Track 4-2-2Situation 1Man: Oh no!Woman: What happened?Man: I can ' t believe it!

With pervasive computing, appliances can communicate with their users — and with other appliances! Some companies now sell pervasive computing products like a “ smart ” toaster. It remembers your favorite kind of toast: light or dark. Companies are designing a “smart ” coffee maker and a “smart ” clock. The coffee maker can measure the water and coffee. Itcan even put milk in your breakfast coffee and make black coffee in the afternoon. The clock will check the time on other clocks in your house, and give information about other appliances. For example, it can tell you, “Your coffee maker needs more water.”And that 'onsly the beginning. One company is now advertising “ Savetime — phone your washing machine! ” Engineers are making a“smart ” house. In this house, the lights, heater, and airconditioner change automatically when family members come home. This makes the home comfortable, and it saves a lot of energy. Pervasive computing could change many parts of our daily lives.Lynn: Bye, Pam. Pam:What ' s that? Lynn: Oh …thatPam: Ollie? I didn Lynn: Well, we don s a robot!'s a dog robot. They call it a … But it ' s a little strange, dondogbot. ” t you think?m happy.But do people really want pervasive computing? Do they really need technology everywhere? One company asked people about their opinions on “ smart a ”ppliances. There were surprises. A “ smart ” refrigerator can buy more food on the Internet, but people didn 't want it, because itmake mistakes.“ Pervasive computing is as important as a telephone,” says Rebecca Blair, president of InnoTechCorporation. But some of these products are not useful, or even practical. Companies should learn more about thetechnology that people really want.Audio Track 4-2-7/Audio Track 4-2-8The appetite for newer, smarter mobile technology is growing. Hungry consumers are no longer satisfied with making calls and sending text messages, and phone developers are taking notice. Your modern day smartphone is not just a communication device; it also offers a banquet of features such as a music player, gaming apps, Internet browser, electronic dictionary, camera, and video recorder.It 's hard to argue with the merits of having access to so much entertainment on the go. And it harder to argue with the convenience of having multiple entertainment and communication functions served up in a single device. However, some would argue that these phones are eating up too much of people 's time. It 's certainly food for thought. As phones become smarter they might indeed devour what's left of our social and interpersonal skills. We 'll have to wait and see.Audio Track 4-2-9/Audio Track 4-2-10Local girl rescuedShe may have a broken leg, but she can't be happier. Morgan Bailey, 11, is happy to be alive.Tuesday was like any other day for Morgan. She was at school. It was fourth period, and she was the first student to arrive in the gymnasium for her physical education class. Suddenly there was a loud noise.“ There was a sharp cracking noise and then a loud boom. After that, I don't remember anythisaid Morgan.The roof of the gymnasium had collapsed under the heavy snow. Morgan was trapped underneath. She couldn 't escape.“I woke up and there was a big piece of wood on my leg. I couldn 't move it. I was starting to getcold. ”Fortunately, help was nearby. A new program using“ rescue robots ” was tried for the first time.”We were nervous about using the robot, ” said Derrick Sneed, the man in charge of the program. “But in the end, the robot gave us reliable information. It went extremely well. ” The rescue robot was able to go into the gym and locate Morgan 's exact position. “We send in robots first because it may not be safe for humans,” said Mr. Sneed. “Huma are not as useful as robots in some situations. A gas leak, for example, could kill you or me but wouldn 't hurt a robot. ”people who are trapped.Although it didn t happen in Morgan 'Rescue robots go into rough, dangerous places. They work in life or death situations. They have to be durable.Doctors say that Morgan is doing well. She should be going home in two or three days. What is the first thing she wants to do after she gets out of the hospital? ”“I want to meet my hero, ” laughs Morgan. “That little robot that saved my life!Audio Track 4-2-11/Audio Track 4-2-12An increasing number of companies and individuals are now opting to purchase virtual storage for their computer files and programs.Accessibility is generally cited as the single most persuasive factor when making the switch. Being virtual, Clouds can be accessed from any computer with an Internet connection, and at any time. For those with slower Internet connections, sophisticated software accelerates upload and download times.Cost is always a mitigating factor when it comes to choosing which technology solution to adopt. And Clouds offer maximum flexibility when purchasing storage space. No longer do companies have to make long-term investments in expensive server equipment. They can purchase only the space they require now, with the knowledge that they can easily upgrade and expand at any point in the future.Apprehensions, about the security of data, have now been put at ease as globally recognized software firms are building in the necessary security solutions.Audio Track 4-2-131.

Morgan Bailey, 11, is happy to be alive.Tuesday was like any other day for Morgan. She was at school. It was fourth period, and she was the first student to arrive in the gymnasium for her physical education class. Suddenly, there was a loud noise.“There was a sharp cracking noise and then a loud boom. After tha t, I don’t remember anything.” said Morgan.The roof of the gymnasium had collapsed under the heavy snow. Morgan was trapped underneath, she couldn’t escape.“I woke up and there was a big piece of wood on my leg, I couldn’t move it. I was starting to get cold.”Fortunately, help was nearby. A new program using “rescue robot” was tried for the first time.“We were nervous about using the robot,” said Derrick Sneed the man in charge of the program，“but in the end ,the robot gave us reliable information.

They work in life or death situations. They have to be durable.Doctor says that Morgan is doing well. She should be going home in two or three days. What is the first thing she wants to do after she gets out of the hospital“I want to meet my hero,” laughs Morgan, “that little robot that saved my life！”Ad or no adIs advertising really necessary Billions of dollars are spent on it every year, so it must be important. After all, it’s a busy world. You have to advertise, sell products and makemoney.！Not every company thinks that way. The No-Ad company (“no-ad”stands for “not advertised”) avoids big advertising campaigns. The company was started in 1960, and is successful today. Their products are still affordable because the company saves the money on advertising. They also use their savings to support a drug and alcohol awareness program to educate high school students.No-Ad sells by word of mouth. “Word of mouth advertising”happens when a person tells another person about a good experience with a product or service. That second person then tells another friend, family member or colleague. And so a chain of information is created.Typically, advertisers talk about how good their product is. Although they say things like, “Studies show that our product is the best”or “Everyone loves this product”, it can sound insincere or unconvincing. It’s much more believable to hear about a product from someone who did not make it. Our friends’opinions are very important to us, so we often listen to their advice about a product.Word-of-mouth advertising has other advantages too, it’s cost-effective (after all, it’s free). And a company doesn’thave to create a complex business plan to do it. Here is some advice for small business about word- of-mouth advertising: Be prepared to talk about your company at any time. You never know who you will meet. Always carry business cards.Only say positive things about your company. Don’t say negative things about your company.Help other companies by referring people to them. The more you help others, the more good fortune will come back to you.。

Morg an Bailey, 11, is happy to be alive.Tuesday was like any other day for Morgan. She was at school. It was fourth period, and she was the first student to arrive in the gymnasium for her physical education class.Suddenly, there was a loud noise.“There w as a sharp cracking noise and then a loud boom. After that, I don’t remember anything.” said Morgan.The roof of the gymnasium had collapsed under the heavy snow. Morgan was trapped underneath, she couldn’t escape.“I woke up and there was a big piece of wood on my leg, I couldn’t move it. I was starting to get cold.”Fortunately, help was nearby. A new program using “rescue robot” was tried for the first time.“We were nervous about using the robot,” said Derrick Sneed the man in charge of the program，“but in the end ,the robot gave us reliable information. It was extremely well.”The rescue robot was able to go into the gym and locate Morgan’s exact position.“We send in robot first because it may not be safe for humans,” said Mr. Sneed. “Human being s are not as useful as robots in some situations.A gas leak, for example, could kill you or me, but wouldn’t hurt a robot.”Although it didn’t happen in Morgan’s case, some rescue robots can bring fresh air or water to people who are trapped.Rescue robots go into rough, dangerous places. They work in life or death situations. They have to be durable.Doctor says that Morgan is doing well. She should be going home in two or three days. What is the first thing she wants to do after she gets out of the hospital?“I want to meet my hero,” laughs Morgan, “that little robot that saved my life！”Ad or no adIs advertising really necessary? Billions of dollars are spent on it every year, so it must be important. After all, it’s a busy world. You haveto advertise, sell products and make money.！Not every company thinks that way. The No-Ad company (“no-ad”stands for “not advertised”) avoids big advertising campaigns. The company was started in 1960, and is successful today. Their products are still affordable because the company saves the money on advertising. They also use their savings to support a drug and alcohol awareness program to educate high school students.No-Ad sells by word of mouth. “Word of mouth advertising” happens when a person tells another person about a good experience with a product or service. That second person then tells another friend, family member or colleague. And so a chain of information is created.Typically, advertisers talk about how good their product is. Although they say things like, “Studies show that our product is the best”or “Everyone loves this product”, it can sound insincere or unconvincing. It’s much more believable to hear about a product from someone who did not make it. Our friends’ opinions are very important to us, so we often listen to their advice about a product.Word-of-mouth advertising has other advantages too, it’s cost-effective (after all, it’s free). And a company doesn’t have to create a complex business plan to do it. Here is some advice for small business about word- of-mouth advertising:Be prepared to talk about your company at any time. You never know学海无涯who you will meet. Always carry business cards.• Only say positive things about your company.

Morg an Bailey, 11, is happy to be alive.Tuesday was like any other day for Morgan. She was at school. It was fourth period, and she was the first student to arrive in the gymnasium for her physical education class. Suddenly, there was a loud noise.“There w as a sharp cracking noise and then a loud boom. After that, I don’t remember anything.” said Morgan.The roof of the gymnasium had collapsed under the heavy snow. Morgan was trapped underneath, she couldn’t escape.“I woke up and there was a big piece of wood on my leg, I cou ldn’t move it. I was starting to get cold.”Fortunately, help was nearby. A new program using “rescue robot” was tried for the first time.“We were nervous about using the robot,” said Derrick Sneed the man in charge of the program，“but in the end ,the r obot gave us reliable information. It was extremely well.”The rescue robot was able to go into the gym and locate Morgan’s exact position.“We send in robot first because it may not be safe for humans,” said Mr. Sneed. “Human being s are not as useful as robots in some situations.A gas leak, for example, could kill you or me, but wouldn’t hurt a robot.”Although it didn’t happen in Morgan’s case, some rescue robots can bring fresh air or water to people who are trapped.Rescue robots go into rough, dangerous places. They work in life or death situations. They have to be durable.Doctor says that Morgan is doing well. She should be going home in two or three days. What is the first thing she wants to do after she gets out of the hospital?“I want to meet my hero,” laughs Morgan, “that little robot that saved my life！”Ad or no adIs advertising really necessary? Billions of dollars are spent on it every year, so it must be important. After all, it’s a busy world. You have to advertise, sell products and make money.！Not every company thinks that way. The No-Ad company (“no-ad”stands for “not advertised”) avoids big advertising campaigns. The company was started in 1960, and is successful today. Their products are still affordable because the company saves the money on advertising. They also use their savings to support a drug and alcohol awareness program to educate high school students.No-Ad sells by word of mouth. “Word of mouth advertising”happens when a person tells another person about a good experience with a product or service. That second person thentells another friend, family member or colleague. And so a chain of information is created.Typically, advertisers talk about how good their product is. Although they say things like, “Studies show that our product is the best”or “Everyone loves this product”, it can sound insincere or unconvincing. It’s much more believable to hear about a product from someone who did not make it. Our friends’opinions are very important to us, so we often listen to their advice about a product.Word-of-mouth advertising has other advantages too, it’s cost-effective (after all, it’s free). And a company doesn’t have to create a complex business plan to do it. Here is some advice for small business about word- of-mouth advertising:•Be prepared to talk about your company at any time. You never know who you will meet. Always carry business cards.•Only say positive things about your company. Don’t say negative things about your company.• Help other companies by referring people to them. The more you help others, the more good fortune will come back to you.。
