A Everyone wants to travel.But those who cannot do so themselves might find it interesting to work in a travel agency，arranging journeys for other people.Brian Lawtey does this，working in a small travel agency in a big city.Most of his work is concerned with holiday，both at home and abroad.Every autumn，the agency sends out hundreds of booklets(小冊子)full of attractive，colored photographs，describing the holidays that their customers will be able to have the next year.Soon，people begin to come into the office to book their holidays：perhaps a week’s skiing in Austria in January，perhaps a cruise(巡游)to the Caribbean in February，perhaps a seaside holiday in Spain in May，or a tour of Africa.Brian often has to advise people on what holidays will be suitable for them，and they always have a lot of questions.Last year，for example，a lady of eighty-two wanted to book for a mountaineering(爬山)holiday in the Alps，and Brian had great C.things

D.habits 5 difficulty in persuading her that it would not be suitable.In the end，she decided to go for a Mediterranean cruise instead.Arranging journeys for people who have to travel abroad on business is often very complicated，but Brian enjoys this work.For example，last spring Mr.Perry，a director of a chemical firm，went on a business trip，and Brian arranged it all for him.First，Mr.Perry traveled to London by train，and stayed overnight in a hotel near the airport，because his plane left early the next morning.He flew to Frankfurt in Germany，where he spent the morning discussing business.Then he went on by train to Zurich，where he stayed the night.After a meeting the next morning，he caught a plane for Tokyo，and spent three days there before going to America.He had business in Seattle，Chicago and New York，and stayed some time in each of those places.From New York，he flew back to London，and then got home by train.The next day he telephoned the agency to thank Brian for arranging everything so well for him.1.Who would like to work in a travel agency? A.People who go on holidays abroad.B.People who would like to travel but cannot.C.people who enjoy travelling.D.People who live in a big city 2.When do the customers come into the office to book their holidays? A.Early in the morning.B.Every year.C.In January.D.Shortly after receiving the booklet.3.Those who cannot travel themselves might find it interesting to work in a travel agency_________ A.describing the holidays for other people B.arranging trips for themselves C.booking trips for other people D.arranging trips for other people 4.Mr.Perry telephoned the agency to thank Brian because ___________.A.Mr.Perry arranged everything so well for Brian B.Brian arranged everything so well for Mr.Perry C.the agency sent Mr.Perry abroad on business D.Brain helped him in the travel agency 5.How did Brian arrange Mr.Perry’s journey? a.To fly to Tokyo.b.To Frankfurt by plane.c.Back home by train.d.Fly back to London.e.To Zurich by train.f.Have business in Seattle，Chicago and New York.g.To London by train.A.g，b，a，f，e，d，c B.c，g，a，b，e，f，d C.g，b，e，a，f，d，c D.f，e，a，b，g，c，d

A OTTAWA — Canada’s western city of Calgary is the world’s best city when it comes to healthy living, local press reported Monday.According to an international survey by Mercer Human Resource Consulting, a London-based consulting firm, Calgary was put at the top of a list of 144 cities.It scored 121 points, just above Honolulu’s score of 120.Helsinki（赫爾辛基，芬蘭首都）and Ottawa followed at 119.5 and 118.5 respectively.Three other Canadian cities came in the top 20.Montreal and Vancouver tied for ninth and Toronto came in at 18th.The scores are based on air pollution levels, availability and quality of hospitals and medical supplies, as well as the efficiency of waste removal and sewage systems.3

In America, the lowest scoring city was Atlanta, which was ranked 76th.Athens was the lowest scoring city in Western Europe, ranking 120th because of its air pollution.London was ranked 59th.1.How many Canadian cities are in the top 20? A.3.B.4.C.5.D.6.2.Which of the following is NOT taken into account when the cities were scored? A.Weather conditions.B.Air quality.C.Waste removal.D.Medical supplies.3.Among the following cities, which is the lowest scoring one? A.Atlanta.B.Athens.C.London.D.Helsinki.B Canada is one of the few nations in the world that have two official languages：English and French.There are 10 provinces in the country but only one of these—Quebec is known as “French Canada”.This is because it was founded by French explorers while British adventurers discovered the rest.Canada left the British empire in 1867 to become an independent country，and English and French have become the official languages ever since.Most people speak English as their first language and the two national television networks broadcast in English throughout the country.Apart from in Quebec and a few places on the east coast，F(xiàn)rench television is very rare.The same goes for traffic signs and menus，for example，outside of Quebec，there are only a few places where you’ll see traffic signs in French.In restaurants，it’s almost impossible to find French on the menu unless you are in the heartland of French Canada.However，it is claimed by law thay all products sold in Canada must have labels and instructions in both languages.In Canada’s English speaking provinces，official bilingualism(雙語)means that students can choose to complete a special French language course.Under this programme，they are taught most of their subjects in French.If a student begins the course in kindergarten or Grade One，it is likely that all their lessons will be in French.However，if they start at junior high school，25 percent of the teaching will continue to be in English.4.How many provinces are there in Canada? A.Ten.B.Nine.C.Eleven.D.Two.5.Which country controlled Canada before its independence? A.France.B.Britain.C.America.D.Germany.6.Where can you watch French television programmes? A.Only in Quebec.B.In Quebec and a few other places.C.From the two national television networks.D.All over Canada.7.What about the education in Canada? A.In English speaking provinces only English courses are offered there.B.If you choose a special French language course，most of the subjects are taught in French.C.The courses in primary school are all taught in English.D.Most of the courses in junior high schools are taught in English.8.Which of the following sentences is right? A.English is the only official language，though French is also spoken there.B.The two national television networks broadcast both in English and French.C.All products sold in Canada must，by law，have labels and instructions in both English and French.D.The lessons in kindergarten or Grade One are likely to be only in English.第2課時reading 5 基礎(chǔ)練習(xí)

1.必修三Unit1 Festivals and celebrations節(jié)日和慶典

Festivals and celebrations of all kinds have been held everywhere since ancient times.自古以來，世界各地就有各種各樣的節(jié)日和慶典。Most ancient festivals would celebrate the end of cold weather, planting in spring and harvest in autumn.最古老的節(jié)日總是慶祝嚴(yán)寒的結(jié)束、春季的種植和秋天的收割。Sometimes celebrate would be held after hunters had caught animals.有時，在獵人捕獲獵物后，也舉行慶祝活動。At that time people would starve if food was difficult to find, especially during the cold winter months.在那個時代，如果食物難以找到，特別是在寒冷的冬月，人們會挨餓。Today’s festivals have many origins ,some religious, some seasonal, and some for special people or events.現(xiàn)在的節(jié)日有很多由來，一些是宗教上的，一些是季節(jié)性的，一些是紀(jì)念特殊的人和事件的。Festivals of the Dead亡靈節(jié)

Some festivals are held to honour the dead or to satisfy the ancestors, who might return either to help or to do harm.有些節(jié)日，是為了紀(jì)念死者，或使祖先得到滿足，因為祖先們有可能回到世上（給人們）提供幫助，也有可能帶來危害。For the Japanese festival.Obon, people should go to clean graves and light incense in memory of their ancestors.在日本的盂蘭盆節(jié)，人們要掃墓、燒香，以緬懷祖先。They also light lamps and play music because they think that this will lead the ancestors back to earth.他們還點(diǎn)起燈籠，奏響樂曲，因為他們認(rèn)為這樣做可以把祖先引回到世上。In Mexico, people celebrate the Day of the Dead in early November.在墨西哥，亡靈節(jié)是在11月初。On this important feast day, people eat food in the shape of skulls and cakes with “bones” on them.在這個重要的節(jié)日里，人們會吃制成顱骨形狀的食物，和裝點(diǎn)有“骨頭”的蛋糕。They offer food, flowers and gifts to the dead.他們向亡者祭獻(xiàn)食物、鮮花和禮品。The Western holiday Halloween also had its origin in old beliefs about the return of the spirits of dead people.西方節(jié)日萬圣節(jié)也源自人們古老的信念，認(rèn)為亡者的靈魂會返回人間。It is now a children’s festival, when they can dress up and to their neighbours’ homes to ask for sweets.萬圣節(jié)如今成了孩子們的節(jié)日，這天他們可以喬裝打扮上到鄰居家要糖吃。If the neighbours do not give any sweets, the children might play a trick on them.如果鄰居什么糖也不給，那么孩子們就可以捉弄他們了。

Festivals to Honour People紀(jì)念名人的節(jié)日

Festivals can also be held to honour famous people.也有紀(jì)念名人的節(jié)日。The Dragon Boat Festival in China honours the famous ancient poet, Qu Yuan.中國的端午節(jié)（龍舟節(jié)），是紀(jì)念著名古代詩人屈原的。In the USA Columbus Day is in memory of the arrival of Christopher Columbus in New World.美國的哥倫布日是紀(jì)念克里斯托弗·哥倫布發(fā)現(xiàn)“新大陸”的日子。India has a national festival on October 2 to honour Mohandas Gandhi, the leader who helped gain India’s independence from Britain.印度在10月2日有個全國性節(jié)日，紀(jì)念莫漢達(dá)斯·甘地，他是幫助印度脫離英國而獨(dú)立的領(lǐng)袖。Harvest Festivals慶豐收的節(jié)日

Harvest and Thanksgiving festivals can be very happy events.收獲與感恩節(jié)是非常喜慶的節(jié)日。People are grateful because their food is gathered for the winter and the agricultural work is over.越冬的糧食收集起來了，農(nóng)活結(jié)束了，人們都心懷感激。In European countries, people will usually decorate churches and town halls with flowers and fruit, and will get together to have meals.在歐洲國家，人們通常用花果來裝飾教堂和市政廳，在一起聚餐。Some people might win awards for their farm produce, like the biggest watermelon or the most handsome rooster.有些人還可能因為他們的農(nóng)產(chǎn)品（參加各種評選）而獲獎，比如最大的西瓜或最帥的公雞。China and Japan have mid-autumn festivals, when people admire the moon and in China, enjoy mooncakes.中國和日本都有中秋節(jié)，這時，人們會賞月。在中國，人們還品嘗月餅。Spring Festivals春天的節(jié)日

The most energetic and important festivals are the ones that look forward to the end of winter and to the coming of spring.最富生氣而又最重要的節(jié)日，就是告別冬天、迎來春天的日子。At the Spring Festival in China, people eat dumplings, fish and meat and may give children lucky money in red paper.中國人過春節(jié)要吃餃子、魚和肉，還要給孩子們送紅紙包著的壓歲錢。There are dragon dances and carnivals, and families celebrate the Lunar New Year together.（他們）舞龍燈、狂歡，全家人聚在一起歡慶陰歷年。Some Western countries have very exciting carnivals, which take place forty days before Easter, usually in February.在一些西方國家有激動人心的狂歡節(jié)，通常在二月，復(fù)活節(jié)前的四十天。These carnivals might include parades, dancing in the streets day and night, loud music and colourful clothing of all kinds.狂歡節(jié)期間，人們身著各種艷麗的節(jié)日盛裝，伴隨著鼓噪的音樂，在街頭游行，晝夜跳舞。Easter is an important religious and social festival for Christians around the world.復(fù)活節(jié)是全世界基督徒的一個重要的宗教和公眾節(jié)日。It celebrates the return of Jesus from the dead and the coming of spring and new life.它慶祝耶穌復(fù)活，也歡慶春天和新生命的到來。Japan’s Cherry Blossom Festival happens a little later.再晚些時候，日本就迎來了櫻花節(jié)，The country, covered with cherry tree flowers, looks as thought it is covered with pink snow.（節(jié)日里）整個國度到處是盛開的櫻花，看上去就像覆蓋了一層粉紅色的雪。

People love to get together to eat , drink and have fun with each other.人們喜歡聚在一起吃、喝、玩耍。節(jié)日讓我們享受生活，F(xiàn)estivals let us enjoy life, be proud of our customs and forget our work for a little while.讓我們?yōu)樽约旱牧?xí)俗而自豪，還可以暫時忘掉工作中的煩惱。

2.必修三Unit 1 A SAD LOVE STORY一段傷心的愛情故事 Li Fang was heart-broken.李方的心都碎了。It was Valentine’s Day and Hu Jin had said she would meet him at the coffee shop after work.這天是情人節(jié)，胡瑾說她下班后會在咖啡館和他見面的。But she didn’t turn up.可現(xiàn)在她卻不見人影。She could be with her friends right now laughing at him.也許她這會兒跟朋友在一起，正在取笑他呢。She said she would be there at seven o’clock, and he thought she would keep her word.她說她會在7點(diǎn)到達(dá)，他(李方)認(rèn)為她會守信用的。He had looked forward to meeting her all day, and now he was alone with his roses and chocolates, like a fool.他一整天都期盼著見到她，而現(xiàn)在他拿著玫瑰花和巧克力獨(dú)自一人守候著，像個傻瓜一樣。Well, he was not going to hold his breath for her to apologize.他不想屏息等她來道歉，He would drown his sadness in coffee.他要用咖啡來解愁。

It was obvious that the manager of the coffee shop was waiting for Li Fang to leave-he wiped the tables, then sat down and turned on the TV-just what Li Fang needed!很明顯，咖啡館里的經(jīng)理在等李方離開一一他擦好桌子，然后坐下來，打開電視機(jī)。這正合了李方的意！A sad Chinese story about lost love.正在播出的是流傳在中國的一個悲傷的愛情故事。

The granddaughter of the Goddess of Heaven visited the earth.王母娘娘的外孫女下凡來到人間。Her name was Zhinü, the weaving girl.她的名字叫織女，做紡織活的女孩。While she was on earth she met the herd boy Niulang and they fell in love.(“Just like me and Hu Jin,” thought Li Fang.)她在人間遇到了牛郎，兩人相愛了。(李方想“這正像我和胡瑾。”)They got married secretly, and they were very happy.(“We could be like that,” thought Li Fang.)于是他們秘密結(jié)了婚，并且生活得十分幸福。(李方想,“我們也可以像他們那樣幸福的。”)When the Goddess of Heaven knew that her granddaughter was married to a human, she became very angry and made the weaving girl return to Heaven.王母娘娘知道自己的孫女跟一個世上的凡人結(jié)了婚，她勃然大怒，強(qiáng)行把織女帶回到天宮。Niulang tried to follow her, but the river of stars, the Milly Way, stopped him.當(dāng)牛郎試圖追上去，卻被銀河阻擋住了。Finding that Zhinü was heart-broken, her grandmother finally decided to let the couple cross the Milky Way to meet once a year.看到織女傷心欲絕，最后王母娘娘決定讓這對夫妻每年跨過銀河相會一次。Magpies make a bridge of their wings so the couple can cross the river to meet on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month.陰歷七月初七，喜鵲們會展翅搭橋，讓這對戀人過河相會。People in China hope that the weather will be fine on that day, because if it is raining, it means that Zhinü is weeping and the couple won’t be able to meet.中國人都希望這天天氣晴朗，因為如果碰到下雨，這就意味著織女在哭泣，兩個戀人不能見面。

The announcer said,” This is the story of Qiqiao Festival.主持人說道：“這就是乞巧節(jié)的故事。When foreigners hear about the story, they call it a Chinese Valentine’s story.外國朋友聽到這個故事就將它稱作中國的情人節(jié)。It’s a fine day today, so I hope you can all meet the one you love.” 今天天氣晴朗，我希望你們都能見到所愛的人。”

As Li Fang set off for home, he thought,” I guess Hu Jin doesn’t love me.I’ll just throw these flowers and chocolates away.I don’t want them to remind me of her.” 李方動身往家走，心里想：“我想胡瑾是不愛我了，把這些鮮花和巧克力都扔了吧。我不想因它們想起她來。” So he did.于是他把花和巧克力都扔了。

As he sadly passed the tea shop on the corner on his way home, he heard a voice calling him.在回家路上，他神情失落地走過拐角處的一家茶館，聽到有人叫他的名字。There was Hu Jin waving at him and calling , “why are you so late? I’ve been waiting for you for a long time!And I have a gift for you!” 那是胡瑾在向他招手，她喊道：“你為什么這么晚才來呢? 我一直在這兒等你好久了!這是我送給你的禮物!”

What would he do? He had thrown away her Valentine gifts!他怎么辦呢？他把情人節(jié)的禮物都扔了！She would never forgive him.她恐怕永遠(yuǎn)也不會原諒他了。This would not be a happy Valentine’s Day!這個情人節(jié)快樂不起來啦！

3.必修三Unit2 COME AND EAT HERE(1)到這里來用餐吧（1）

Wang Peng sat in his empty restaurant feeling very frustrated.王鵬坐在他那空蕩蕩的餐館里，感到十分沮喪。It had been a very strange morning.這個上午真是怪得很。Usually he got up early and prepared his menu of barbecued mutton kebabs,roast pork, stir-flied vegetables and fried rice.通常他很早就起床準(zhǔn)備他的菜肴----烤羊肉串、烤豬肉、炒菜和炒飯。Then by lunchtime they would all be sold.然后到午飯時分，這些菜都會賣完。By now his restaurant ought to be full of people.But not today!到了這個時候，他的餐館本該賓客盈門的，但今天卻不是！Why was that? What could have happened? 為什么會這樣？發(fā)生了什么事？ He thought of his mutton, beef and bacon cooked in the hottest, finest oil.他想起了他用滾燙的精制油烹制的羊肉、牛肉和臘肉。His cola was sugary and cold, and his ice cream was made of milk, cream and delicious fruit.他的可樂又甜又冷，冰激凌是用牛奶、奶油和美味的水果制成的。“Nothing could be better,” he thought.他想：“再沒有比這些更好吃的了。” Suddenly he saw his friend Li Chang hurrying by.突然，他看到自己的朋友李昌匆匆地走過。“Hello, Lao Li,” he called.“Your usual?” 他喊道，“喂，老李！你還是吃老一套吧？” But Li Chang seemed not to hear.可是李昌似乎沒有聽到。What was the matter? 怎么回事呢？Something terrible must have happened if Li Chang was not coming to eat in his restaurant as he always did.要是李昌不像往常那樣到他店里吃飯，那問題一定嚴(yán)重了。

Wang Peng followed Li Chang into a new small restaurant.王鵬跟著李昌來到一家新開張的小餐館。He saw a sign at the door.看見門口有一塊招牌：

Tired of all that fat? Want to lose weight? “肥膩的東西吃厭了吧？想變瘦嗎？ Come inside Yong Hui’s slimming restaurant.請到雍慧減肥餐館來。Only slimming foods served here.此地只供應(yīng)減肥食品，Make yourself thin again!讓你恢復(fù)苗條！”

Curiosity drove Wang Peng inside.王鵬受到好奇心的驅(qū)使，走了進(jìn)去。It was full of people.里面坐滿了人。The hostess, a very thin lady, came forward.“Welcome,” she said.“My name is Yong Hui.I'll help you lose weight and be fit in two weeks if you eat here every day.” 店老板，一個清瘦的女人走上前來說道：“歡迎光臨！我叫雍慧。您要是每天來這兒用餐，我可以在兩周內(nèi)幫您減肥并讓身體健康起來。”Then she gave a menu to Wang Peng.然后，她遞給王鵬一份菜譜。There were few choices of food and drink on it: just rice, raw vegetables served in vinegar, fruit and water.菜譜上只有很少幾樣食物和飲料：只有米飯、蘸醋吃的生蔬菜、水果和水。Wang Peng was amazed at this and especially at the prices.王鵬對此感到吃驚，特別是對價格。It cost more than a good meal in his restaurant!這價格比在他的餐館里吃一頓好飯還要貴。He could not believe his eyes.他幾乎不能相信他的眼睛！He threw down the menu and hurried outside.他甩了菜譜就急匆匆往外走。On his way home he thought about his own menu.在回家的路上，他想起了自己的菜譜。Did it make people fat? 那些菜讓人發(fā)胖了嗎？ Perhaps he should go to the library and find out.也許他該去圖書館查查看。He could not have Yong Hui getting away with telling people lies!他可不能讓雍慧哄騙人們卻不受懲罰！He had better do some research!他最好做一番調(diào)查！

At the library Wang Peng was surprised to find that his restaurant served far too much fat and Yong Hui’s far too little.在圖書館，王鵬很驚訝地發(fā)現(xiàn)，他餐館里的食物脂肪含量太高，而雍慧餐館里的食物脂肪含量又太少。Even though her customers might get thin after eating Yong Hui’s food, they were not eating enough energy-giving food to keep them fit.盡管顧客吃她的餐館里的飯菜會變得苗條，但他們攝取不到足夠的熱量來保持健康。They would become tired very quickly.很快就會感到疲乏。Wang Peng felt more hopeful as he drove back home.開車回家時，王鵬覺得又有了希望。Perhaps with a discount and a new sign he could win his customers back.也許寫個新的標(biāo)牌、打點(diǎn)折，能夠贏回顧客吧。So he wrote: 于是他寫到：

Want to feel fit and energetic?“想健康又精力旺盛嗎？Come and eat here!Discounts today!到這里來用餐吧！今天打折！Our food gives you energy all day!

我們的食物能夠給您提供一整天所需的熱量！”

The competition between the two restaurants was on!這兩家餐館之間的競爭開始了！

4.必修三Unit2 COME AND EAT HERE(2)到這里來用餐吧（2）

A week later, Wang Peng' s restaurant was nearly full and he felt happier.一周后，王鵬的餐館幾乎坐滿了人，他感到高興些了。Perhaps he would be able to earn his living after all and not have to close his restaurant.也許他仍然能夠謀生，而不至于關(guān)閉自己的餐館了。He did not look forward to being in debt because his restaurant was no longer popular.他不希望由于餐館不受歡迎而負(fù)債。He smiled as he welcomed some customers warmly at the door but the smile left his face when he saw Yong Hui walking in.他微笑著站在門口熱情地迎接他的客人。但他一見到雍慧走進(jìn)來，臉上的笑容馬上就消失了。She did not look happy but glared at him.雍慧瞪著他，看上去不高興。“ May I ask what you were doing in my restaurant the other day? “請問你那天到我餐館里來干什么？ I thought you were a new customer and now I know that you only came to spy on me and my menu,” she shouted.我本來以為你是一位新顧客，現(xiàn)在我才發(fā)現(xiàn)你只是過來打探我和我的菜譜的。” 她大聲問道。“ Please excuse me,” he calmly explained,“ I wanted to know where all my customers had gone last week.王鵬心平氣和地解釋說：“很對不起，上周我想知道我所有的顧客上哪兒吃飯去了。I followed one of them and found them in your restaurant.我跟著一位顧客走，發(fā)現(xiàn)他們在你的餐館里。I don' t want to upset you, but I found your menu so limited that I stopped worrying and started advertising the benefits of my food.我并不想讓你心煩，不過我發(fā)現(xiàn)你菜譜上的菜太少了，所以我也就不著急了，我也開始宣傳我餐館的食物的好處。Why don' t you sit down and try a meal?” 你為什么不坐下來吃頓飯呢？”

Yong Hui agreed to stay and soon they were both enjoying dumplings and breast of chicken cooked with garlic.雍慧同意留下來。沒過一會，他們兩人就津津有味地吃起餃子和蒜蓉雞胸。When they were served the ice cream, Yong Hui began to look ill.當(dāng)?shù)匠员ち钑r，雍慧開始看起來不舒服了。“I feel sick with all this fat and heavy food,” she said, 她說，“吃了這么多油膩的、難消化的食物，我都覺得惡心了。“ I miss my vegetables and fruit.”我想吃我的蔬菜和水果。”Wang Peng was enjoying a second plate of dumplings so he sighed.“ Yes,” he added,“ and I would miss my dumplings and fatty pork.Don't you get tired quickly?” 這時候，王鵬正在吃第二盤餃子，他嘆了一口氣，說道，“同樣地，（如果在你的餐館）我還想吃我的餃子和肥肉呢。你不覺得自己很容易疲乏么？” “Well, I do have to rest a lot,” admitted Yong Hui.“是的，我的確經(jīng)常需要休息。”雍慧承認(rèn)了，“But don't you think it would be better if you were a bit thinner? I’m sure you ' d feel much healthier.”“不過，難道你不認(rèn)為你瘦一點(diǎn)更好么？我相信，那樣你會覺得更健康些。”

They began to talk about menus and balanced diets.他們開始談?wù)摬俗V和平衡膳食的問題。“ According to my research, neither your restaurant nor mine offers a balanced diet,” explained Wang Peng.王鵬解釋道：“根據(jù)我的研究，你我兩家所提供的都不是均衡膳食。“ I don' t offer enough fibre and you don' t offer enough body-building and energy-giving food.我沒有提供足夠的纖維食物，而你提供的食物沒有足夠的營養(yǎng)和熱量。Perhaps we ought to combine our ideas and provide a balanced menu with food full of energy and fibre.”也許我們應(yīng)該把我們的想法結(jié)合起來，做出一份富有熱量和纖維的均衡食譜。” So that is what they did.于是，他們就照此做了。They served raw vegetables with the hamburgers and boiled the potatoes rather than frying them.They served fresh fruit with the ice cream.他們用生蔬菜配漢堡包，煮土豆而不是油炸土豆，還拿新鮮水果配上冰激凌。In this way they cut down the fat and increased the fibre in the meal.這樣，他們減少了飯菜中脂肪的含量，增加了纖維素。Their balanced diets became-such a success that before long Wang Peng became slimmer and Yong Hui put on more weight.他們的平衡食譜非常有效，王鵬很快就瘦了，而雍慧卻胖了。After some time the two found that their business cooperation had turned into a personal one.不久以后，這兩個人發(fā)現(xiàn)，他們生意上的合作變成了私人的合作了。Finally they got married and lived happily ever after!最后，他們結(jié)了婚，過上了幸福美滿的生活！

No one knows exactly how the earth began, as it happened so long ago.沒有人確切知道地球是怎樣開始形成的，因為在很早很早以前地球就形成了。However, according to a widely accepted theory, the universe began with a “Big Bang” that threw matter in all directions.然而，一種普遍為人們所接受的理論是：宇宙起源于一次大爆炸，這次大爆炸將物質(zhì)投射到四面八方。After that, atoms began to form and combine to create stars and other bodies.然后，原子開始形成并結(jié)合成恒星和其他天體。

For several billion years after the “Big Bang”, the earth was still just a cloud of dust.大爆炸后好幾十億年過去了，但地球還只是一團(tuán)塵埃。What it was to become was uncertain until between 4.5 and 3.8 billion years ago when the dust settled into a solid globe.隨后它會變成什么沒人能知道，直到38—45億年前，這團(tuán)塵埃才慢慢地形成一個固體的球狀物。The earth became so violent that it was not clear whether the shape would last or not.地球（開始）變得激烈動蕩，不知道這個固體形狀是否會繼續(xù)存在下去。It exploded loudly with fire and rock.They were in time to produce carbon, nitrogen, water vapour and other gases, which were to make the earth's atmosphere.它（地球）猛烈地爆炸噴出了烈火與巖石，最終產(chǎn)生了碳，氮?dú)猓魵夂推渌喾N氣體，從而形成了地球的大氣層。What is even more important is that as the earth cooled down, water began to appear on its surface.更為重要的是，地球冷卻了下來，地球的表面就開始出現(xiàn)了水。

Water had also appeared on other planets like Mars but, unlike the earth, it had disappeared later.在火星這些其他行星上都出現(xiàn)了水，但和地球不同的是，這些水后來都消失了。It was not immediately obvious that water was to be fundamental to the development of life.水對于生命的發(fā)展會起關(guān)鍵作用，這一點(diǎn)在當(dāng)時并不明顯。What many scientists believe is that the continued presence of water allowed the earth to dissolve harmful gases and acids into the oceans and seas.很多科學(xué)家相信，由于地球上長期有水存在，使得地球得以把有害氣體和酸性物質(zhì)溶解在海洋里。This produced a chain reaction, which made it possible for life to develop.這就產(chǎn)生了一系列的反應(yīng)，使得生命就有可能開始發(fā)展了。

Many millions of years later, the first extremely small plants began to appear on the surface of the water.好幾百萬年后，水的表面開始出現(xiàn)了極小的植物。They multiplied and filled the oceans and seas with oxygen, which encouraged the later development of early shellfish and all sorts of fish.他們繁殖起來就使得海洋充滿了氧氣，這為早期的貝類及其他各種魚類后來的進(jìn)化創(chuàng)造了條件。Next, green plants began to grow on land.They were followed in time by land animals.接著，綠色植物開始出現(xiàn)在陸地上。Some were insects.Others, called amphibians, were able to live on land as well as in the water.隨后，陸地上出現(xiàn)了動物，其中有一些是昆蟲，另外一些叫兩棲動物，他們既能在陸上生活，也能在水里生存。Later when the plants grew into forests, reptiles appeared for the first time.后來，當(dāng)植物長成了森林的時候，爬行動物首次出現(xiàn)了。They produced young entirely by laying eggs.他們一般是通過孵蛋而繁衍后代的。After that, some huge animals, called dinosaurs, developed.再后來一些叫做恐龍的巨型動物出現(xiàn)了。They laid eggs too and existed on the earth for more than 140 million years.他們也生蛋，在地球上生存了一億四千多萬年。However,65 million years ago the age of the dinosaurs ended.然而，六千五百萬年前，恐龍時代結(jié)束了。Why they suddenly disappeared still remains a mystery.他們?yōu)槭裁磿蝗粶缃^至今仍是個謎。This disappearance made possible the rise of mammals on the earth.恐龍的滅絕使地球上哺乳動物的增多有了可能。These animals were different from all life forms in the past, because they gave birth to young baby animals and produced milk to feed them.這些動物不同于以往所有的生物形態(tài)，因為他們能從體內(nèi)生產(chǎn)出幼仔并給幼仔哺乳。

Finally about 2.6 million years ago some small clever animals, now with hands and feet, appeared and spread all over the earth.最后，大約260萬年前，一些小巧聰明，長著手腳的動物出現(xiàn)了，他們散布在地球的各個地方。Thus they have, in their turn, become the most important animals on the planet.于是，他們接著成為這個行星上最重要的動物。But they are not looking after the earth very well.然而，他們對地球卻不怎么在意，They are putting too much carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, which prevents heat from escaping from the earth into space.他們把過多的二氧化碳釋放到大氣層中，這使得地球上的熱不能釋放到太空中去。As a result of this, many scientists believe the earth may become too hot to live on.因此，許多科學(xué)家相信地球可能會變得太熱而不適合生物生存。So whether life will continue on the earth for millions of years to come will depend on whether this problem can be solved.所以，在未來的數(shù)百萬年中，生命能否在地球上延續(xù)，取決于這個問題能否得到解決。

8.必修三Unit 4 A VISIT TO THE MOON月球之旅

Last month I was lucky enough to have a chance to make a trip into space with my friend Li Yanping, an astronomer.我的朋友李彥平是一位天文學(xué)家。上個月我有幸得到一個機(jī)會同他一起去太空旅行。We visited the moon in our spaceship!我們乘宇宙飛船參觀了月球。

Before we left, Li Yanping explained to me that the force of gravity would change three times on our journey and that the first change would be the most powerful.在啟程以前，李彥平向我解釋說，在我們的航行中會有三次引力的改變，而第一次的改變將是最強(qiáng)的。Then we were off.隨后我們就起航了。As the rocket rose into the air, we were pushed back into our seats because we were trying to escape the pull of the earth's gravity.隨著火箭的升空，由于我們在努力掙脫地球的引力，我們被向后推在座位上。It was so hard that we could not say anything to each other.這種引力太強(qiáng)了，以至于我們彼此間都不能說話了。Gradually the weight lessened and I was able to talk to him.隨后，這個力量慢慢減小，我才能夠同他講話。“Why is the spaceship not falling back to the earth? On the earth if I fall from a tree I will fall to the ground.” I asked.我問道：“為什么太空船不會向后朝地球的方向落下去呢？在地球上的時候，如果我從樹上掉下來，總會朝地上落下去的。” “We are too far from the earth now to feel its pull,” he explained, 李彥平解釋說：“現(xiàn)在我們離地球太遠(yuǎn)了，感覺不到地球的拉力，“so we feel as if there is no gravity at all.所以我們感覺好像沒有地球引力了。When we get closer to the moon, we shall feel its gravity pulling us, but it will not be as strong a pull as the earth's.” 當(dāng)我們更接近月球時，就會感到月球的引力在拉我們。但是，月球的引力不像地球的引力那么大。” I cheered up immediately and floated weightlessly around in our spaceship cabin watching the earth become smaller and the moon larger.我立刻感到很高興，由于失重我在太空艙里飄來飄去，我望著（身后的）地球越來越小，而（前方的）月球越來越大。

When we got there, I wanted to explore immediately.我們到達(dá)月球時，我就想立即進(jìn)行探測。“Come on,” I said.“If you are right, my mass will be less than on the earth because the moon is smaller and I will be able to move more freely.“來吧，”我說，“要是你講得對，我的重量就會比在地球上小，而我就能夠更自由地活動了。I might even grow taller if I stay here long enough.I shall certainly weigh less!” 如果我在月球上呆的時間足夠長的話，我甚至可能長得更高，我的體重肯定也會變得更輕！”I laughed and climbed down the steps from the spaceship.我笑著從飛船的梯級上爬下來。But when I tried to step forward, I found I was carried twice as far as on the earth and fell over.而當(dāng)我試著向前邁步的時候，我發(fā)覺我被送出去很遠(yuǎn)，步子的跨度竟然是在地球上的兩倍，因而我摔倒了。“Oh dear,” I cried, “walking does need a bit of practice now that gravity has changed.” “天哪，”我大聲說，“重力改變了，看來走路也的確需要練一練了。”After a while I got the hang of it and we began to enjoy ourselves.過了一會兒，我才掌握了走路的訣竅，這才開始感到自如了。

Leaving the moon's gravity was not as painful as leaving the earth's.擺脫月球引力不像擺脫地球引力那樣痛苦。But returning to the earth was very frightening.但是返回到地球的經(jīng)歷卻是非常嚇人的。We watched, amazed as fire broke out on the outside of the spaceship as the earth's gravity increased.我們驚奇地看著，隨著地球引力的增加，宇宙飛船的外層燃燒起火。Again we were pushed hard into our seats as we came back to land.當(dāng)我們回到地面時，我們又感到被重重地推到在座位上。“That was very exhausting but very exciting too,” I said.我說道：“真是精疲力竭了，但也很激動人心。“Now I know much more about gravity!關(guān)于引力，我現(xiàn)在就懂得更多了。Do you think we could visit some stars next time?” 你認(rèn)為下次我們可以上星球上去參觀嗎？” “Of course,” he smiled, “which star would you like to go to?”“當(dāng)然可以，”他笑著說，“你想到哪顆星球上去呢？”

9.必修三Unit 5 A TRIP ON “THE TRUE NORTH”“真北方”之旅

Li Daiyu and her cousin Liu Qian were on a trip to Canada to visit their cousins in Montreal on the Atlantic coast.李黛予和她的表妹劉倩要去加拿大大西洋海岸的蒙特利爾市看望他們的表兄妹。Rather than take the aeroplane all the way, they decided to fly to Vancouver and then take the train west to east across Canada.他們不想一路乘飛機(jī)，而決定先飛到溫哥華，再從西海岸乘火車橫穿加拿大到達(dá)東海岸。The thought that they could cross the whole continent was exciting.要橫貫整個大陸的想法很是令人興奮。

Their friend, Danny Lin, was waiting at the airport.朋友林丹妮，在機(jī)場等候她們。He was going to take them and their baggage to catch “The True North”, the cross-Canada train.他要帶著她們和行李去火車站乘坐橫越加拿大的“真北方”號列車。On the way to the station, he chatted about their trip.在去火車站的路上，林丹妮聊起了她們的旅程：“You're going to see some great scenery.“你們沿途將會看見美麗壯闊的風(fēng)景。Going eastward, you'll pass mountains and thousands of lakes and forests, as well as wide rivers and large cities.一路向東行，你們會經(jīng)過一座座山脈，上千個湖泊，森林，還有寬闊的河流和許多大城市。Some people have the idea that you can cross Canada in less than five days, but they forget the fact that Canada is 5,500 kilometres from coast to coast.有人想在不到五天的時間里穿越加拿大，他們忘了加拿大從東海岸到西海岸有5500公里。Here in Vancouver, you're in Canada's warmest part.這兒，溫哥華，是加拿大最溫暖的地方。People say it is Canada's most beautiful city, surrounded by mountains and the Pacific Ocean.人們說溫哥華是加拿大最美麗的城市，被大山和太平洋環(huán)抱。Skiing in the Rocky Mountains and sailing in the harbour make Vancouver one of Canada's most popular cities to live in.落基山脈可以滑雪，海港供你揚(yáng)帆，這些使得溫哥華成為加拿大最受歡迎的居住城市之一。Its population is increasing rapidly.這個城市的人口增長很快。The coast north of Vancouver has some of the oldest and most beautiful forests in the world.在溫哥華北面的海岸上保存著世界上最古老，最美麗的森林。It is so wet there that the trees are extremely tall, some measuring over 90 metres.” 那兒的濕度很大，所以樹都長得特別高，一些高達(dá)90多米。”

That afternoon aboard the train, the cousins settled down in their seats.那天下午表姐妹倆才登上火車落了座。Earlier that day, when they crossed the Rocky Mountains, they managed to catch sight of some mountain goats and even a grizzly bear and an eagle.火車先是穿越落基山脈，她們總算看到了野山羊，甚至還看見了一只大灰熊和一只鷹。Their next stop was Calgary, which is famous for the Calgary Stampede.她們的下一站是卡爾加里，這個城市因“大西部賽馬會”而聞名。Cowboys from all over the world come to compete in the Stampede.來自世界各地的牛仔們來參加賽馬會比賽。Many of them have a gift for riding wild horses and can win thousands of dollars in prizes.他們中許多人都有騎野馬的才能，他們能贏得幾千美元的獎金。

After two days' travel, the girls began to realize that Canada is quite empty.兩天后，他們開始意識到加拿大人煙稀少。At school, they had learned that most Canadians live within a few hundred kilometres of the USA border, and Canada's population is only slightly over thirty million, but now they were amazed to see such an empty country.他們在學(xué)校學(xué)過，大多數(shù)加拿大人居住在靠近美國幾百千米以內(nèi)的邊境地帶，加拿大的人口也只有三千萬多一點(diǎn)兒。但是現(xiàn)在看到這么空曠的國家，她們很驚訝。They went through a wheat-growing province and saw farms that covered thousands of acres.火車穿過一個種植小麥的省份，他們看到了面積有數(shù)千平方英畝的農(nóng)場。After dinner, they were back in an urban area, the busy port city of Thunder Bay at the top of the Great Lakes.晚飯后，他們又回到城市，位于五大湖區(qū)最北端的繁忙的港口城市桑德灣。The girls were surprised at the fact that ocean ships can sail up the Great Lakes.海輪可以開到五大湖，讓表姐妹倆感到吃驚。Because of the Great Lakes, they learned, Canada has more fresh water than any other country in the world.他們知道，因為五大湖，加拿大的淡水比世界上任何其他國家都要多。In fact, it has one-third of the world's total fresh water, and much of it is in the Great Lakes.事實上，加拿大擁有全世界三分之一的淡水量，其中大部分都蓄在五大湖泊里。

That night as they slept, the train rushed across the top of Lake Superior, through the great forests and southward towards Toronto.那天夜里她們睡著了，火車越過蘇必利爾湖北部，穿過大森林，朝南向多倫多飛馳著。

10.必修三Unit 5 “THE TURE NORTH”FROM TORONTO TO MONTREAL多倫多——蒙特利爾的“真北方”列車

The next morning the bushes and maple trees outside their windows were red, gold and orange, and there was frost on the ground, confirming that fall had arrived in Canada.第二天早上，在她們的車窗外到處是灌木叢和楓樹，掛滿朱紅、赤金和橘黃色的葉子，地面覆蓋上一層薄霜，表明秋天已經(jīng)來到了加拿大。

Around noon they arrived in Toronto, the biggest and most wealthy city in Canada.中午時分，她們來到多倫多——加拿大最大、最富有的城市。They were not leaving for Montreal until later, so they went on a tour of the city.她們要晚些時候才動身去蒙特利爾，因此就在多倫多市內(nèi)游覽了一番。They went up the tall CN Tower and looked across the lake.她們登上了高高的加拿大國家電視塔，俯瞰著下面的湖水。In the distance, they could see the misty cloud that rose from the great Niagara Falls, which is on the south side of the lake.遠(yuǎn)處，她們可以看到湖的南邊尼亞加拉大瀑布上方升騰著的霧靄。The water flows into the Niagara River and over the falls on its way to the sea.湖水流入尼亞加拉河，再經(jīng)過大瀑布，流向大海。

They saw the covered stadium, home of several famous basketball teams.她們看到了加頂?shù)拇笮瓦\(yùn)動場，那是幾支著名的籃球隊的駐地。As they walked north from the harbour area, Li Daiyu said, “Lin Fei, one of my mother's old schoolmates, lives here.I should phone her from a telephone booth.”

當(dāng)她們從港口區(qū)向北走的時候，李黛予說：“我媽媽的老同學(xué)林菲住在這里，我該到電話亭去給她打個電話。”

They met Lin Fei around dusk in downtown Chinatown, one of the three in Toronto.大約黃昏時分，她們在市區(qū)的中國城見到了林菲，這是多倫多三個中國城中的一個。Over dinner at a restaurant called The Pink Pearl, the cousins chatted with Lin Fei, who had moved to Canada many years earlier.在一個名叫“海珠酒樓”的餐館里用餐時，表姐妹和許多年前就移居加拿大的林菲閑聊了起來。“We can get good Cantonese food here,” Lin Fei told them, “because most of the Chinese people here come from South China, especially Hong Kong.林菲告訴她們：“我們在這里可以吃到很好的廣東菜，因為這里的大多數(shù)中國人來自中國南方，尤其是香港。It's too bad you can't go as far as Ottawa, Canada's capital.很可惜你們不能一直走到加拿大的首都渥太華。It's approximately four hundred kilometres northeast of Toronto, so it would take too long.” 它在多倫多東北方約400公里，要去那兒花時間就太多了。”

The train left late that night and arrived in Montreal at dawn the next morning.火車在那夜晚些時候起程了，第二天黎明到達(dá)了蒙特利爾。At the station, people everywhere were speaking French.火車站里，人們到處說的是法語。There were signs and ads in French, but some of them had English words in smaller letters.指示牌和廣告也都是法文的，但有些標(biāo)注了小字體的英文。“We don't leave until this evening,” said Liu Qian.劉倩說：“我們要到傍晚才動身，” “Let's go downtown.Old Montreal is close to the water.” “不如到市區(qū)去走走。蒙特利爾老城區(qū)靠近水邊” They spent the afternoon in lovely shops and visiting artists in their workplaces beside the water.整個下午她們穿梭于布局可愛的商店，還拜訪了水邊工作坊里的藝術(shù)家。As they sat in a buffet restaurant looking over the broad St Lawrence River, a young man sat down with them.當(dāng)她們坐在咖啡館里眺望廣闊的圣勞倫斯河時，一個年輕人坐在了她們的身邊。

“Hello, my name is Henri.I'm a student at the university nearby,” he said, “and I was wondering where you are from.” 他說，“你們好，我叫亨利，是這里的大學(xué)生。請問你們從哪里來？” The girls told him they were on a train trip across Canada and that they had only one day in Montreal.姑娘們告訴他，她們是坐火車來旅游的，要橫穿加拿大，在蒙特利爾只待一天。“That's too bad,” he said.“Montreal is a city with wonderful restaurants and clubs.他說：“這太糟糕了，蒙特利爾這個城市有極好的餐館和俱樂部。Most of us speak both English and French, but the city has French culture and traditions.我們大多數(shù)人既說英語也說法語，但是這座城市具有法國文化和傳統(tǒng)。We love good coffee, good bread and good music.” 我們喜歡好咖啡、好面包和好音樂。”

That night as the train was speeding along the St Lawrence River toward the Gulf of St Lawrence and down to the distant east coast, the cousins dreamed of French restaurants and red maple leaves.那天晚上，火車沿著圣勞倫斯河疾馳，朝圣勞倫斯灣駛?cè)ィ恢遍_到遠(yuǎn)方的東海岸，姐妹兩個做夢都在想著法國餐館和紅色楓葉。
