U1Reading Body language

Read this story in a school newspaper.Debbie and Simon are college students.They have part-time jobs at a travel agency.They are sitting in the office.Debbie and Simon looked up as a well-dressed lady entered.The lady glanced at them both, then walked over to Debbie.Debbie greeted her cheerfully.The lady said, ‘I want to go by train to…’

Simon sighed and took some papers over to the fax machine.Mr.Young, a senior employee, was standing there.‘What’s up, Simon? You don’t look very happy.’

‘People always prefer Debbie to me.I can’t understand it.’

‘I can.It’s the way you communicate.’

‘How can that be? I don’t even get a chance to speak to them.’

‘Communicating is more than speaking and listening.Your body language is important, too.’

‘Body language?’

‘It’s the way you stand and sit.It’s your gestures and the expression on your face and in your eyes.Your whole appearance communicates things.The way you look at people doesn’t give them a good impression,Simon.You often rest your head on your hand.You look downwards.You never smile.You don’t turn your head or body towards people.Look at Debbie.She’s holding her head up.She looks at people’s eyes.She smiles.Your body language is telling people to go away.Debbie’s body language is making them feel welcome.That’s why they go to her for assistance, and not to you.’

After that, Simon decided to improve his body language.He sat up and smiled at people.This seemed to work.Minutes later, a very beautiful girl entered.She looked at Debbie and then Simon.Without hesitation she went to Simon and gave him a big smile.A few moments later, she left, still smiling.Mr.Young came over at once and remarked, ‘You made a good impression on her.’

‘That was my sister,’ said Simon.‘She wanted to remind me that tomorrow is her birthday.’

U1MR Eye contact Eye contact is a form of communication which can mean different things in different cultures.Read this article about eye contact on a website.Thoughout the history of mankind, people have communicated with body language.In many situations, the way you say something is far more important than what you say.Eye contact is sometimes the key to communication.It can signal friendliness or hostility, interest or boredom, and understanding or confusion.In Western cultures, maintaining eye contact in conversations is necessary.As a matter of fact, a westerner might consider a lack of eye contact as a lack of interest.In Spain, Italy and Greece, where people stand clost together talking to each other, eye contact is more frequent and lasts longer.In many Asian cultures, avoiding eye contact shows respect.It is done when talking with anyone in authority or with anyone older.Habits like this can cause problems when people do not understand them.For instance, an Asian might close his eyes in concentration or look down while listening to a speaker.A Western speaker might think the man is not interested.Eye contact is a subtle thing.Avoiding eye contact might be considered impolite, but staring at others is also considered rude and should be avoided.U2Reading Care for your hair

Read this article from a website that tells people how to take good care of their hair.Some people have a lot of hair while others have a little.Some people have no hair on the top of their head: they are bald.The important thing is----are you happy with the hair you have?

Problem hair is often a result of an unhealthy diet and lifestyle.To ensure your hair looks its best, pay attention to what you eat.Lack of protein and iron makes your hair less shiny.So, you need adequate amounts of green vegetables, fruits and dairy products.Drink eight to ten glasses of water a day.This will help keep your hair from becoming dry.Avoid eating sweets or high-fat foods.They can slow hair growth.Stress in your life can also secretly rob your hair of its shiny beauty.Relaxing music and more rest are both remedies for stress.In addition, remember to rinse your hair thoroughly after you shampoo it.Brushing your hair regularly will help it grow.It will also make it look healthy.Do not rub your hair too quickly when you dry it.It could damage your hair.Last, be sure to choose the right hair products.The choices you make are the key to healthy hair.U3Reading Places of interest

Wendy is a student in Beijing.Her penfriends in England are planning to visit China, so Wendy has collected some information from different travel brochures for them.Read the cuttings below.The Great Wall twists and turns along the tops of mountain chains in northern China.It is more than 4,000 kilometres long.Construction of the wall began in the fifth century BC.The wall finally took shape in the third century BC.From Beijing, you can visit the Great Wall at Badaling, 65 kilometres north-west of the city.The Great Wall opens at 6.30 a.m.and closes at 7 p.m.in summer.The Shanghai Museum was designed by Xing Tonghe.Construction of the museum was completed in 1996.The building is a magnificent structure with a square base and a rund top.From a distance, it looks like a ding, an ancient Chinese container for food.The museum includes galleries with ancient Chinese bronze ware, sculptures, paintings, calligraphy, seals and furniture.It is open between 9 a.m.and 5 p.m.The scenery along the Li River in Guilin is just like a beautiful landscape painting.Take a boat trip, and you will be attracted by the odd peaks along the river and their reflections in the river and their reflections in the clear water.You can also walk or cycle along the paths near the river, or take mud baths in nearby caves.Guilin is a good place to go in Spring.U3MR More places to visit

Wendy and her parents want to take a trip overseas soon.She is looking at this webpage on travel to see where they can go.Angkor Wat

The remains of Angkor Wat, with its sculptures and ancient temples, are the pride of Cambodia.Angkor Wat was the captial of the Khmer people.After the Khmer Kingdom was destroyed in 1431, the city was abandoned.It was largely forgtten until it was discovered again in 1858.You can now easily access Angkor Wat by air, and it has hotels nearby.Colosseum

The Colosseum was built in Rome, Italy, in AD 72.This huge stadium could hold more than 50,000 people.It was a popular place for races and fights.After the fall of the Roman Empire, the Colosseum fell into ruin.The site is now the place to see in Italy.You can sit in the stands and imagine the past.Great Pyramids of Giza

The Great Pyramids of Giza overlook the Nile River in Egypt.They were built around 4,500 years ago as tombs for kings.The Great Pyramid of Khufu is the largest of all.It is made of 2.3 million stone blocks.Each side of the base is 230 metres long.The Pyramids have been damaged over time, but they are still a wonder to see.U4Reading Surprises at the studio

Read the excerpt from the novel Mandy and Angela Go to Europe.In this excerpt, Mandy and her friend Angela attend the filming of a TV quiz programme.‘Five minutes until we start filming.’ Shouted the director.‘Is everyone ready?’ ‘I’m glad that I’m not one of the contestants!’whispered Mandy.‘They must feel really worried now!’

‘Oh, I would love to be a contestant,’ said Angla.The three contestants were sitting at their desks on the stage, waiting.The hot lignts were shining down upon them.Suddenly, one of them, a woman, stood up and then fell forward across her desk.‘Oh, she’s fainted because it’s too hot,’ gasped Mandy.A cameraman helped the woman off the stage.The director hurried down from the control room opposite the stage.‘We need another contestant before the show begins,’ he shouted.‘Who wants to be on TV?’ Angela raised her hand.‘You’re on!’ the director shouted.After he seated her on the stage, a make-up artist rushed forward.She quickly powdered Angela’s face and combed her hair.‘Ten seconds,’ shouted the director.‘Smile, everyone.Cue Lester!’ Everyhone in the audience started clapping.The announcer’s voice boomed, ‘ It’s time for Travel Quiz, and here’s your host, Lester Li!’ Lester Li came running out and stood in front of the desks.The quiz programme had begun.Angela was terrific.Since she answered the questions easily, she was soon ahead of the other two contestants.Mandy, however, was tense.She sat on the edge of her seat and chewed her fingernails while she watched.Twenty-five minutes later, Angela had beaten the other contestants.She had to answer six mor questions to win the grand prize.Mandy was so excited.She could hardly keep still.Angela kept getting the questions right.There was just one question to go.‘And finally, where is the Colosseum?’ asked Lester.‘In Rome, Italy,’ replied Angela.‘Right!’ shouted Lester, as the audience clapped.‘You have won tonight’s grand prize----a trip for two to the lovely city of Paris!’

U4MR New trends in entertainment technology

Read about new trends in entertainment technology from this article in the style section of a newspaper.Have you ever wanted to feel like part of the action while you watched a film? You can, at an Imax Dome Theatre like the one at the Shanghia Science and Technology Museum.The screen at these theatres surrounds the audience.As the sound system has 44 speakers behind the screen, the sound seems very real.Many of the films shown at these theatres are nature films.You can achieve a similar effect in your own sitting room with a home entertainment system.A home entertainment system uses a wide, flat-screen TV.Often, this is suspended on the wall like a picture.Stereo speakers are arranged round the viewers.Digital technology makes both the picture and the sound clear.For music lovers, there is always MP3.Since MP3 players were introduced in 1997, people have taken them everywhere.An MP3 player uses digital technology to record and play music.Most MP3 players are smaller than cigarette lighters.They can record hundreds of hours of music.With an MP3 player, you can listen to high-quality music while you are doing nearly anything.You no longer have to carry CDs or cassettes with you.U5Reading Very vegetarian

Read this transcript from the weekly TV programme Sally and Sam.In this scene, Sally and her friend Sam are having lunch in a restaurant.Sally:

For lunch, I think I’ll have the mixed grill — steak, pork chops, chicken and sausages.Does that sound good to you?

Sam:

Sounds horrible!I’m having a salad.No more bits of dead animals for me.I’ve become a vegetarian — a persan who does not eat meat.Sally:

Since when?

Sam:

Since I saw this programme on TV.Sally:

You’re always influenced by these programmes.Last month, you saw a programme on space and so you wanted to become an astronaut.What did you see this time?

Sam:

A programme on the meat industry.You shouldn’t eat meat, you know.The animals you eat had to spend their lives crowded together in tiny spaces.Then they were killed.Sally:

Poor animals!Oh, here’s my mixed grill!

Sam:

Animals kept this way can easily get sick, so they have to be given drugs.These drugs may still be in the meat when you eat it.It may be dangerous.Sally? Are you listening to me?

Sally:

Yes.Please continue.By the way, can you pass the pepper?

Sam:

You did not have to eat that!You ought to eat some salad instead.We should use land to grow food for people instead of cattle.Then there’d be no more hungry people in the world.Sally:

You will never make me lose my appetite for meat.I need meat because it contains vitamins and minerals not found in vegetables.Vegetables can also be dangerous, you know.Lots of people are made ill because of the pesticides the farmers use on them.Some vegetables even…

Sam:

I don’t want to hear this.Let’s change the subject.Sally:

OK.Do you know where I can buy some…

U5MR Neither too little, nor too much

What kind of diet is right for you? Read this short article on diet and health in a leaflet from a hospital to find out.Many people believe that sugar is not healthy for you.Others say that sugar is the best source of energy.Some people eat meat while others are vegetarians.Who is right? What is your opinion?

The importance ofhaving a variety of food in one’s diet is quite clear.Scientists advise a balanced diet.A balanced diet is one with food from each of the five food groups: whole grains or wheat, vegetables, fruit, milk and dairy products, and meat and beans.Scientists warn us that a lack of certain kinds of food is dangerous, especially for children.Children’s bodies cannot grow properly without a balanced diet.On the other hand, having too much of anyhthing, including one’s favourite food, is equally dangerous.They say, for example, people who eat lots of cheeseburgers and milkshakes will increase their risk of heart attacks.Therefore, we cannot decide what to eat without first doing intelligent research.Scientific information about the body’s needs for fats, proteins, minerals and vitamins can help us decide on the right choice and the right amount.It can also help us tell facts from wrong opinions.U6Reading The changing colours of our crops

Read this newspaper article about Sunqiao Modern Agricultural Development of Zone in Shanghai.Recently, agriculture has become more colourful.‘Green agriculture’ means traditional farming that grows plants in soil.‘Blue agriculture’ farms fish or water plants in natural sources of water such as oceans or lakes.The newest of the colours is ‘white agriculture.’ It is practised at Sunqiao Modern Agricultureal Development Zone in Shanghai.With white agriculture, plants are grown in water.Sometimes sand or small stones are used to help hold up the plants.However, soil is not used.The plants are nourished only by a mixture of water and fertilizer.White agriculture is useful for places with poor soil quality since it makes the best use of both water and fertilizer.Sunqiao is both an experimental research facility and a business enterprise.The research involves making green agriculture more profitable and finding farming techniques which do not use man-made chemicals.It also produces seeds which help famers grow better crops.However, the most unusual aspect of Suqiao is their research on white agriculture.Through this new technology, Sunqiao Modern Agricultural Development Zone has proved to be one of the fastest developing areas in China.Seeds and new varieties of plants from Sunqiao have brought economic benefits to more than 16,000 farming families.The farmers that it has helped now have bigger and better harvests.Their lives have been changed forever.People who live in cities used to regard farming as boring and backward.However, the introduction of modern technology has made Sunqiao famous.Every week, about 5,000 people visit Sunqiao.They appear amazed to see the vegetables which Sunqiao grows without using soil.Farming has become exciting and high-tech.This is a place where technology and nature work well together.U6MR Balancing world diets

How are Western and Asian diets different? Look at this article from a magazine about new trends to find out.Today, in Western countries, weight problems, heart disease and many forms of cancer are becoming more common.In Asia, such kinds of health problems are not as common as in Western countries.Asians appear to live longer as well.Their diets might account for these differences.Asian diets generally have less meat and fewer dairy products.Eggs and chicken are eaten only a few times a week.Sweet food is eaten only in moderation.In contrast to Westerners, Asians eat much rice or noodles.Leafy vegetables like cabbage are on themenu of most Asian meals.Fresh fruit is eaten many times a day.Soya products are often used in cooking.Eating such a variety of food helps Asian people stay healthy.The methods of preparing meals are also different.Vegetable oils are commonly used in Asian cooking.In comparison, butter is used more often in Western cooking.However, fast-food restaurants and Western-style eating patterns have become more common in Asia.This leaves fewer differences between Western and Asian diets.Asians whose diets are like westerners experience more disease and weight problems.Fortunately, many Asians who are aware of this development are paying closer attention to their diets than ever before.

Mom and Dad arrive back from vacation a day earlier than expected.The curtains are closed and the living room is dark when Mom and Dad enter.Dad: It’s so nice to be home!

Mom: Yes, I can’t wait to surprise the boys!

Suddenly a door opens and a soccer ball flies through the room.Eric runs in after it, followed by a big dog, walking very slowly.Eric: Mom!Dad!You’re back early!(looking around room, sounding frightened)But, but---you weren’t supposed to come home until tomorrow!

The dog slowly walks to Mom and Dad.Mom:(bending to touch dog)Eric, he’s so tired and hungry!(looking at table)The money with which you were to buy dog food is gone, but Spot looks so hungry!What did you do with the money we left?

Dad: And look at the room---garbage all over the place!Where is your brother?(shouting angrily)Daniel!

Daniel:(running into room)Mom, Dad, I can explain---

Dad opens the curtains and light comes into the room.The room is in a mess, with pizza boxes on around which are pieces of garbage and waste paper.Mom and Dad both turn towards Daniel.Dad:(sounding very angry)Listen to me, young man----we left you in charge!We thought you could act like an adult, but look at the mess.I don’t know why the house is so dirty---

Mom: Daniel, we thought you were an adult, a person who would make good decisions…….Dad: How can we trust you any more? We won’t tolerate such behavior in our house!

Eric: You don’t hate them.I can tell them we had an emergency.Then they won’t be mad anymore.Daniel: No, don’t tell them anything.Anyhow,they didn’t trust me.They don’t deserve an explanation.Let them think what they want.黑發不知勤學早，白發方悔讀書遲——顏真卿

Eric: But Daniel, if they knew that Spot was sick and we used the money to take him to the clinic---

Daniel: And that we spent all of yesterday waiting there for him and that is why we had no time to clean the house---but no Eric, why didn’t they ask me what happened instead of shouting at me?Act two, scene two

Mom: Do you think we were too hard on Daniel? Perhaps there’s a reason why the house is a mess…..Dad: Maybe, but now that he has been so rude to us, I feel like we have to punish him or he won’t respect us.Mom: Oh, why does this have to be so difficult?

Mom sighs.End of act two.M1U2 Project---Growing pains

Many teenagers feel lonely, as if no one understands them and the changes they are going

through.Day by day, everything seems different, yet the same.Life never seems to be going fast enough;yet, in other ways, like a race car, life seems to be rushing too fast and even going out of control.Has anyone else ever felt this way?

These feelings are a common part of adolescence—the time of life between child and adult.And, though it may sometimes be difficult to believe, you are not alone—every adult has gone through adolescence, and your friends are going through it right now along with you.It is common for teenagers to feel lonely and misunderstood.These feelings can be thought of as growing pains—the difficulties that teenagers face as they grow to adults.As teenagers grow, it is normal for them to become confused with the changing world both inside and outside of them.During adolescence, teenagers go through great physical changes.They grow taller and their voices get deeper, among many other developments.Along with these physical changes, there come many psychological changes.Boys and girls tend to be different in this regard.Many boys become risk-takers—they want to find their own

limits and the limits of the world around them, but may not have the wisdom to make good choices in their behavior.At the same time, girls often want someone –anyone –to talk todeal with their strong feelings.In the social world, as teenagers get older, they struggle to depend on themselves.They may badly want and need their parents’ love, yet feel distant;they may want to be part of the group, yet

desire independence.Since teenagers have difficulty balancing these needs, they often question who they are and how they fit in society.In the end everything turns out OK—the teenager becomes a healthy adult, and this period of change and challenge is traded for the changes and challenges of grown-up life.

小鬼當家

第一幕

媽媽和爸爸外出度假，比預期的時間提前一天返回家中。媽媽和爸爸進門時，窗簾緊閉，起居 室里黑咕隆咚的。

爸爸：

回家的感覺真好啊！

媽媽：

是啊，我迫不及待地要給兒子們一個驚喜呢！

突然，門開了，一只足球飛了進來。埃里克隨后跑進起居室，身后跟著一條大狗，走路慢吞吞的。埃里克：媽媽！爸爸！你們這么早就回來了呀！

（四下打量，驚慌地）可是、可是……你們應該

明天才到家的呀！狗緩緩地走到媽媽和爸爸身邊。

媽媽：

（俯身撫摸著狗）埃里克，狗怎么又累又餓的啊!（看了看桌子）買狗食的錢不見了，可是小斑點看上去都餓壞了！你倆用我們留給你們的錢做什么了？

爸爸：

還有，你們看看這起居室——垃圾滿地都是！你哥哥在哪兒？

（生氣地喊）丹尼爾！丹尼爾：（跑進起居室）媽媽，爸爸，我可以跟你們解釋……

爸爸拉開窗簾，光線一下子照進屋里。起居室里一片狼藉：地板上堆放著比薩餅盒子，洗碗池 里全是臟碗碟。角落里有只垃圾桶，在其周圍還有垃圾和廢紙。媽媽和爸爸同時轉向丹尼爾。

爸爸：

（非常生氣地）聽我說，年輕人——我們將這個家交給你負責！我們原以為你的行為舉

止能像個大人樣了，可看看這片狼籍！我不知道為什么這個房子弄得這么臟…… 媽媽：

丹尼爾，我們還以為你是成年人了，是一個會做出正確決定的人…，爸爸：

我們怎么能再信任你？在我們家里可不能容忍這種行為！

丹尼爾：（叫喊著）別對我大喊大叫好不好？我還只是個少年！為什么什么事總是我的過錯？ 丹尼爾沖進自己的臥室，憤怒地關上房門。媽媽和爸爸面面相覷，燈光滅。第一幕完 第二幕，第一場

丹尼爾和埃里克的臥室：埃里克坐在床上，丹尼爾雙臂抱在胸前，看起來很不高興。丹尼爾：

他們壓根兒就不給我一個辯解的機會。我討厭他們：

埃里克：

你可不要討厭他們!我可以告訴他們發生了緊急情況：解釋之后他們就不會再生氣了。’ 丹尼爾：

別，什么都不用跟他們說。不管怎樣，他們不信任我：他們不配得到解釋。他們愿意

怎么想就讓他們怎么想好了。

埃里克：

可是丹尼爾．如果他們知道小斑點生病了．我們用那筆錢帶小斑點去看了獸醫…… 丹尼爾： 還有，我們昨天在獸醫那兒呆了一整天，正因為如此，我們才沒有時間打掃房子……

可是，不，埃里克，為什么他們不問問我到底發生了什么事就對我大喊大叫呢？ 第二幕，第二場

媽媽：

你覺得我們剛才對丹尼爾是不是太苛刻了呢？有可能家里一團糟是有原因的…… 爸爸：

也許吧，可是既然他對我們那么粗魯無禮．那我覺得我們有必要教訓教訓他，要不然

他不會尊重我們的。

媽媽：

哎，干嘛非得這么麻煩啊？ 媽媽嘆了口氣。第二幕完

M1U2 project

Growing pains Many teenagers feel lonely, as if no one understands them and the changes they are going through.Day by day, everything seems different, yet the same.Life never seems to be going fast enough;yet, in other ways, like a race car, life seems to be rushing too fast and even going out of control.Has anyone else ever felt this way?

很多青少年感到孤獨，好像沒有人理解他們以及他們正在經歷的變化。日子一天天過去，而所有事情似乎都是不同的，可又都是一成不變的。生活似乎從不過得足夠快；而從別的方面看，生活似乎過得太快甚至于失控，像開賽車一樣。別的人也有過同感么?

These feelings are a common part of adolescence—the time of life between child and adult.And, though it may sometimes be difficult to believe, you are not alone—every adult has gone through adolescence, and your friends are going through it right now along with you.It is common for teenagers to feel lonely and misunderstood.These feelings can be thought of as growing pains—the difficulties that teenagers face as they grow to adults.這些感覺是青春期——介于孩童和成人之間的人生階段——的正常組成部分。而且，雖然有時難以相信，并非只有你才是這樣——每一個成年人都經歷過青春期，而你的朋友和你一樣正經歷這個階段。對青少年而言，感到孤獨和被誤解是很普遍的。這些情感可以看作是成長的煩惱——是青少年邁向成年時所面對的困難。

As teenagers grow, it is normal for them to become confused with the changing world both inside and outside of them.During adolescence, teenagers go through great physical changes.They grow taller and their voices get deeper, among many other developments.在青少年成長的時候，對自己無論體內還是體外的狀態變化感到困惑對他們而言是正常現象。在青春期，青少年經歷著身體上的巨大變化。他們個子長高，聲音變低，還有很多其他的成長發育。

Along with these physical changes, there come many psychological changes.Boys and girls tend to be different in this regard.Many boys become risk-takers—they want to find their own limits and the limits of the world around them, but may not have the wisdom to make good choices in their behavior.At the same time, girls often want someone –anyone –to talk to, as they try to deal with their strong feelings.與這些生理變化同時而來的，還有很多心理上的變化。男孩和女孩在這方面往往有所不同很多男孩成為危險嘗試者——他們希望找到自己的局限和他們周邊世界的局限，但也許并不具有對其行為做出正確抉擇的智慧。而與此同時，女孩則通常需要和某個人——或任何人——進行交談，因為她們試圖面對自己強烈的情感。

In the social world, as teenagers get older, they struggle to depend on themselves.They may badly want and need their parents’ love, yet feel distant;they may want to be part of the group, yet desire independence.Since teenagers have difficulty balancing these needs, they often question who they are and how they fit in society.在大千社會中，隨著青少年長大，他們努力地自力更生。他們或許迫切需要父母的關愛

卻又感覺疏遠；他們或許想要成為團體的一員，但又渴望獨立。正因為青少年們在平衡這些需要時有困難，所以他們經常質疑自己到底是誰以及怎樣融入社會。

The good news is that these kinds of growing pains do not last.In the end everything turns out OK—the teenager becomes a healthy adult, and this period of change and challenge is traded for the changes and challenges of grown-up life.好在這些成長的煩惱并不會持久。最終一切都會好起來——青少年成長為健康的成年人而青春期的變化和挑戰則轉變為成人生活中的種種變化和挑戰。

Dear Zhou Ling Things change so quickly!I’m now in hospital recovering from liver failure.I regret taking those weight-loss pills.They contain a harmful chemical that caused my liver to fail.The pills were going to completely destroy my liver if I continued taking them.My mother insisted on sending me to the hospital, where I received good medical treatment.It was a really painful experience, but I’m feeling better now.I follow my doctor’s advice and exercise for at least half an hour every day(but I seldom go to the gym!), and eat lots of fruit and vegetables.People should look after their bodies.My mother is right: don’t damage your health for a slim and attractive figure.It isn’t worth it.We shouldn’t be ashamed of the way we look, should we? I hope to hear from you soon.Love, Amy

Dear Amy My computer was broken so I couldn’t read your two e-mails until today.I’m so sorry to hear about your problem, but I’m glad you’re feeling better and are recovering.You’re right.We shouldn’t be embarrassed about our weight.I think you look great as you are, and you’re a wonderful person.I know that the pressure to stay slim is a problem, especially for an actress.However, your mother knows best: nothing is more important than health.It’s the same in China—many people, some of whom are not overweight at all, are always going on a diet or taking weight-loss pills, which are often dangerous.I hope they can learn from your story.Love Zhou Ling

嗨，周玲：

你好。好幾個星期都沒收到你的來信了。一切順利嗎？

你現在還是每天去健身房嗎？我以前常去健身房，一周三次，可我現在不再鍛煉了。我有了另外一種保持苗條身材的方法。顯得美麗對女性來說很重要，難道不是嗎？如今，大部分年輕女性都想擁有苗條的身材，在加拿大這里尤其是這樣。我目前在努力減肥，因為我的體型讓我覺得非常羞愧。由于我正準備出演一部新的電視劇，所以我在服用一種名叫Fat—Less的減肥藥片，這種藥片很受加拿大年輕女性的歡迎。我希望能夠至少減去10公斤。我每天服用兩片，因而也就不用鍛煉了。

減肥藥片還真的管用哦！我現在可是越發苗條了。前兩個月我就減去了7公斤。可是，有時候我感到沒有精神。我媽媽（你去年見過她的）一直告誡我不要服用減肥藥片，因為減肥藥危及健康。她說，健康是最重要的，我同意這個觀點，可是我現在看上去多么苗條。

快些給我寫信哦！

愛你的埃米

親愛的周玲：

情況變化實在是太快了！我現在住院了，患的是肝衰竭，正在恢復中。我很后悔服用了那種減肥藥片。那些減肥藥片里含有某種有害的化學物質，導致了我肝功能衰竭。如果我當時繼續服用這些藥片，我的肝臟就徹底毀了。我媽媽堅持將我送進了醫院。在這兒我得到了很好的治療。

這的確是一段令人痛苦的經歷，但是現在我感覺好多了。我聽從醫生的建議，每天鍛煉至少半小時（但我很少去健身房！），吃很多的水果和蔬菜。人們應該照顧好自己的身體。我媽媽是對的：不要為了苗條、動人的身材毀了自己的健康，那樣做是得不償失的。我們不應該為自己的外表感到羞愧，不是嗎？

我希望能夠早點兒收到你的回信。

愛你的 埃米

親愛的埃米：

我的電腦出了故障，所以直到今天才能夠看到你的兩封電子郵件。得知你的病情我非常難過，但讓我感到高興的是，你現在感覺良好，身體正在恢復中。

你說得對。我們不應該因為自己的體重感到難為情。我覺得你目前這個樣子看上去就很棒，而且你是一個非常優秀的人。我知道，保持身材苗條的壓力是問題的癥結所在，對一個女演員來說尤其是這樣。但是，你媽媽她最清楚不過：沒有什么比健康更重要。

在中國也是一樣的情況——許多人，其中有些人壓根兒就不超重，總是在節食，或者是吃減肥藥片，這些做法往往是危險的。我希望他們能夠從你的經歷中汲取教訓。

愛你的周玲

Making a booklet on keeping fit The truth is, diet and way of life are often a problem for teenagers.However, the good news is that you can feel better, look better and have more energy if you eat the right food and exercise regularly.Healthy eating along with regular exercise is probably the only way to become fit.Diets are useless in the long term, yet approximately 20% of teenagers say they have tried going on a diet and skipping meals to control their weight.If you eat properly and exercise regularly, you will lose weight, keep fit and feel great.As a teenager, it is important to give your body the energy it needs.If you skip meals, you don’t get enough energy, and then you feel tired.For a healthy diet, you should eat mostly rice, bread, vegetables and fruit.You also need to drink a lot of water—six to eight glasses a day.Water helps keep your system clean.Drinking enough water will improve your skin and give you healthy hair.Exercise is something that can help to make you look good, feel good and be healthy.Experts suggest that teenagers spend at least 30 minutes exercising, five times a week.That is easy to do!Walking and riding your bike count, and so do school sports.Often, teenagers give up sport, saying they have no time left after their studies.長句

Many teenagers are surprised to learn that when you exercise, your body produces some chemicals that make you feel peaceful and relaxed and increase your ability to concentrate when you study.These chemicals can even help you sleep better at night.A good amount of sleep every night is also important for your health.When you sleep, your body prepares you for the day to come.Teenagers need eight to ten hours of sleep each night.As a matter of fact, loss of sleep can make you look tired, and even cause you to gain weight.If you follow the suggestions above, you will look and feel much better in no time at all!

制作健康小冊子

實際情況是，對青少年而言，飲食習慣和生活方式往往是個問題。但好消息是，如果合理飲食，經常鍛煉，你就可以感覺更好，氣色更好，精力越發充沛。

健康的飲食加上經常鍛煉也許是變得健康的唯一途徑。從長遠角度來看，節食并不能奏效，然而有大約20％的青少年聲稱，他們曾嘗試過節食或者有時不吃飯，以控制自己的體重。如果你適當飲食并經常鍛煉，你就會減輕體重，保持健康狀態，感覺很棒。

作為青少年，給予你的身體所需要的足夠能量是很重要的。如果不吃飯，你就不能得到足夠的能量，因此就會感到疲倦。至于健康的飲食，你應該主要地攝入米飯、面包、蔬菜和水果。你還需要喝很多的水——一天需要6—8杯。水有助于保持人體內部系統清潔。足量飲水會改善你的皮膚，讓你擁有健康的頭發。

鍛煉能夠讓你氣色好、感覺好、身體健康。專家建議，青少年每周至少應該鍛煉五次，每次至少30分鐘。這一點是很容易做到的！步行和騎自行車就算，校內體育活動也算。常常有這樣的情況：有些青少年干脆放棄體育鍛煉，聲稱學習繁忙，沒有時間進行體育鍛煉。很多青少年吃驚地得知，當你鍛煉時，你的體內會產生某些化學物質，這些化學物質讓你感到平靜、放松，增強學習時的注意力。這些化學物質甚至還有助于你改善睡眠呢！

每晚保證充分的睡眠對你的健康也是很重要的。睡覺的時候，你的身體就幫你為下一天作好準備。青少年每晚需要8—10小時的睡眠。事實上，失眠會使你面容疲倦，甚至身體發胖。

如果你能遵循以上建議，用不了多久你就會氣色好得多、感覺棒得多！

SCHOOL life in the UK Going to a British high school for one year was a very enjoyable and exciting experience for me.I was very happy with the school hours in Britain because school starts around 9 a.m.and ends about 3.30 p.m.This means I could get up an hour later than usual as schools in China begin before 8 a.m.On the first day, all of the new students attended an assembly in the school hall.I sat next to a girl whose name is Diane.We soon became best friends.During the assembly, the headmaster told us about the rules of the school.He also told us that the best way to earn respect was to devote oneself to study and achieve high grades.This sounded like my school in China.I had many teachers in the past year.Mr.Heywood , my class teacher, was very helpful.My favorite teacher was Miss Burke—I loved the lessons that she gave in English Literature.In our class there were 28 students.This is about the average size for British schools.We had to move to different classrooms for different classes.We also had different students in some classes, so it was a struggle for me to remember all the faces and names.I found the homework was not as heavy as what I used to get in my old school, but it was a bit challenging for me at first because all the homework was in English.I felt lucky as all my teachers gave me much encouragement and I enjoyed all my subjects: English, History, English Literature, Computer Science, Maths, Science, PE, Art, Cooking and French.My English improved a lot as I used English every day and spent an hour each day reading English books in the library.I usually went to the Computer Club during the lunch break, so I could send e-mails to my family and friends back home for free.I also had an extra French class on Tuesday evenings.Cooking was really fun as I learned how to buy, prepare and cook food.At the end of term we held a class party and we all had to cook something.I was glad that all my classmates were fond of the cake that I made.Students at that school have to study Maths, English and Science, but can stop studying some subjects if they don’t like them, for example, History and French.They can choose other subjects like Art and Computer Science or Languages such as Spanish and German.In the Art class that I took, I made a small sculpture.Though it didn’t look very beautiful when it was finished, I still liked it very much.I missed Chinese food a lot at lunch.British food is very different.British people like eating dessert at the end of their main meal.After lunch, we usually played on the school field.Sometimes I played football with the boys.Sometimes I just relaxed under a tree or sat on the grass.I was very lucky to experience this different way of life.I look back on my time in the UK with satisfaction, and I really hope to go back and study in Manchester again.在英國的學校生活

在英國上了一年的中學對我來說是一段非常令人愉快和興奮的經歷。我很喜歡英國中學的

作息時間，因為學校每天上午大約9點上課，下午大約3點半放學。這意味著我每天可以比以往 晚一個小時起床，因為在中國學校每天上午8點之前就開始上課了。

開學第一天，所有的新生都去學校禮堂參加晨會。我當時坐在一個名叫黛安娜的女孩身邊： 我們很快就成了最要好的朋友。在晨會上，校長向我們宣布了校規。他還告訴我們，贏得尊重 的最佳途徑就是專心學習并取得好成績。這聽起來倒是像我在國內就讀的學校。

過去的一年里我有過許多老師。海伍德先生，我的班主任，對我的幫助很大。我最喜歡的 老師是伯克小姐——我喜愛她教的英國文學課程。我們班上一一共有28個學生。英國中學的班級 差不多就是這么大。我們上不同的課得去不同的教室。上某些課的時候，班上的同學也不一樣，所以對我來說記住所有的人的面孔和名字可是一件難事。

我發現這里布置的家庭作業不像我以前在原來學校時那么繁重，可一開始我還是覺得有些 挑戰性，因為所有的作業都是英語的，讓我感到幸運的是，所有的老師都給了我很多鼓勵，因 此，我也喜歡我所學的每一門功課：英語、歷史、英國文學、計算機、數學、科學、體育、藝 術、烹飪和法語。

我天天都在使用英語，每天還花一個小時在圖書館里閱讀英文書籍，因此，我的英語有了 很大進步。午飯休息時間我常去電腦俱樂部，這樣我就可以免費給國內的家人和朋友發電子郵 件了。我還額外選了一·門功課——每個星期二晚上去聽法語。當我學會如何買菜、配菜和做菜 的時候，我發現烹飪真是一種樂趣。學期末，我們班開了一個派對，我們每個人都要為派對做 點吃的。我們班上所有的同學都喜歡我做的蛋糕，這可真讓我高興。

數學、英語和科學是該校的必修課，但是，如果不喜歡某些科目是可以中斷學習的，如歷 史和法語。學生可以選修其他的科目，如藝術、計算機或者是西班牙語、德語之類的語言課。在藝術課上我做了一件小雕塑。盡管完工之后它看上去并不十分漂亮，但我仍然非常喜歡它。

每到吃午餐的時候我就非常想念中國菜。英國的飲食很不一樣，英國人在正餐結束時喜歡 吃甜點。午餐后我們通常去學校運動場上玩耍。有時我和男生們一起踢足球。有時我干脆在樹 下休息休息或是在草地上坐一坐。

我很幸運能夠體驗到這樣一種不同的生活方式。回顧在英國的日子我很滿意，真希望有朝 一日能夠重返曼徹斯特，在那里讀書學習。

Starting a new school club We have a radio club in our school.It is great because it is run by the students for the school.I am lucky as I am one of the hosts.It was started two years ago.One day, I just began thinking about music for everyone, so I asked the headmaster if music could be played during break times.He approved the idea, and two years later I am in charge of the radio club as the oldest student member.Our club is much more than just music.Every morning we tell our schoolmates about the weather, recent news, and some special messages that the teachers want us to broadcast.During exam time we have a special programme that tells students the things they should do for preparation.At the end of the school year, many students who are graduating use our club to give messages to their close friends and teachers.When parents come to visit the school and talk to the teachers, we often play songs sung by students, and we also give messages to inform the parents of events such as outings and school plays.I shall miss the radio club after graduation, but I know that it will continue without me.(Kate Jones)Our school club ‘Poets of the Next Generation’ is a literary club that was started by our English teacher Mr.Owen.We meet on the last Friday of every month to talk about poems and poets that we like.In the club meetings, we first select poems that we love, and then read them aloud.We also discuss poems in our meetings.When I attended the first meeting, I was required to write a poem and I had to read it to the club.I was a little nervous at first, but everyone was so nice and friendly that I soon stopped worrying.I once read a poem about nature in the school courtyard.I chose an old tree and gathered everyone under it before I read.The club members said it was one of the best compositions they had heard.(Bob Shaw)我們學校有一個廣播俱樂部。這個俱樂部的非常之處在于它是由學生們自己為學校創辦的。我很幸運地成了其中的一名主持人。

廣播俱樂部是兩年前創立的。有一天，我萌發了為大家播放音樂的念頭，于是我就問校長能否在休息時間給同學們播放音樂，校長同意了。兩年后，我作為元老負責校廣播俱樂部的工作。我們的俱樂部現在不只是播放音樂。每天早上我們向同學們播報天氣情況和時事新聞，還有老帥們要我們播出的一些特別告示。

到了考試的時候我們就會做一檔特別節目，告訴學生們復習迎考的注意事項。每當學年結束的時候，許多即將畢業離校的學生就會借助我們的廣播俱樂部向他們的好友和老師留下臨別致辭。

每逢家長來訪、與老師交談的時候，我們常常播放一些由學生們自己演唱的歌曲。我們還會廣播一些通知，告訴家長們有關諸如遠足、校內戲劇表演之類的活動訊息。

畢業后，我會想念廣播俱樂部的，但我知道，沒有我，它還會繼續辦下去的。(凱特

瓊斯)

我們的校內俱樂部“下一代詩人”是由我們的英語老師歐文先生發起的一個文學俱樂部。每個月的最后一個星期五我們會聚在一起討論喜愛的詩歌和詩人。聚會的時候，我們首先挑選出我們喜愛的詩歌，然后朗誦這些詩歌。我們還在聚會時討論詩歌。

我第一次參加聚會的時候，被要求寫一首詩，還得當著俱樂部成員的面進行朗誦。起初我覺得有些緊張，但所有的成員都是那么親切、友好，我很快就不擔心了。有一次，我在學校花園里朗誦了一首表現大自然的詩歌。朗誦前，我選擇了一棵老樹，把大家都聚集在樹下。俱樂部成員們都說那是他們聽過的最好的詩歌之一。(鮑勃

牛津高中英語模塊三的三篇reading課文原文及翻譯

霧

霧警報

那天早上當波莉離開家，城市已經被一層灰色的薄霧覆蓋。在午餐時間，收音機天氣預報員報道薄霧在下午會變成濃霧。四點鐘，波莉離開工作，踏入霧中。她懷疑巴士是否仍然在運行。

沒有去國王街的巴士

她一出來在大街上，就快速走向她以往的停車站。

“你要去的地方有多遠？”巴士售票員問她。

“國王街。”波莉回答。

“對不起，小姐。”男人回答，“事實上，霧太濃了以至于巴士不能行駛那么遠。坐地鐵列車去綠色花園，那里的天氣也許會好一點，而且你也許可以在哪兒攔到一輛出租車。”

一個高大的男人

當波莉觀察地鐵上的乘客時，她注意到她被一個穿著黑色外套的高大男人盯著。最后，列車到達了綠色花園車站。當其他的乘客下車，她掃視了周圍人的臉，四處都找不到那個高大男人。

腳步聲

波莉到了車站出口，那里空無一人。外面的霧像一朵厚厚的灰云。在勢力范圍內一個人都沒有。波莉朝著公園街出發。當她沿著街走時，她聽到了腳步聲，但是等到她到達街道拐角處，腳步聲不見了。突然，波莉感到一只粗糙的手輕拂過她的臉，她聽到一個男人的聲音在她耳邊說：“對不起。”男人離開了。她能感覺到心臟帶著恐懼的跳動聲。

樂于助人的陌生人

然后她再次聽到了這個聲音——在她后面輕輕的腳步聲。一分鐘前，她希望有個人和她一起走。現在她想要跑，但是恐懼使她一動不動。現在腳步聲似乎靠近了。然后一個男人的聲音從黑暗中傳來：“有人在那里嗎？”

波莉頓了頓，最后她說：“你好，我想我迷路了。”

幾分鐘后，一只手伸了出來而且碰到了她的手臂。波莉發現她自己抬頭凝視著一個手停留在她的手臂上站立著的男人。她看到的是一張老人的臉。“也許我能幫助你，你要去哪里？”他問。

“我住在國王街86號。”波莉回答。

“只管抓住我的手。”男人說，“跟著我走。你會沒事的。”他抓住波莉的手：“留意這里的臺階。”

在他的另外一只手上男人拿著一根拐杖。波莉聽到拐杖敲擊著臺階。“我還記得一些可怕的霧天，但是也許那是在你出生之前。我看不見你的臉，但是你的聲音聽起來很年輕。你幾歲了？”

“剛滿20。”波莉說。

“嗯，20歲！一個很美好的年齡。我也曾經年輕。現在我們在拐角處。從這里向左拐。”

“我現在快迷路了，您確定您認識路嗎？”波莉再次開始感到害怕。“當然，你真的不必擔心。”他握住她的手更緊了。

一個感恩的幫助者

“我們到了，國王街。”他停住。

“非常感謝。”波莉說，“你愿意進來休息一下嗎？”

“你真的很善良。”男人說：“但是我要離開了。今天也許會有更多的人迷路，我要去幫助他們。你看，如此糟糕的霧是很罕見的。它給了我們報答在晴天給我們幫助的人們。一個像我這樣的盲人沒有幫助時不能穿過馬路的，除了在像這樣的霧天中。”

失落的文明

第一天——7月15日

我是加拿大的代表。我很榮幸在這個旅行中贏得一席之地。我們現在位于意大利，明天我們打算去參觀龐貝。下周我們將要乘飛機去中國，去因沙漠中的龐貝而廣為人知的樓蘭。龐貝和樓蘭在大約2000年前已經成為失落的文明。

第二天——7月16日

今天早上我們去了一個關于龐貝的講座。這個城市建立在公元前8世紀。公元前89年，羅馬人奪取了龐貝。然后它變成了一個富裕的城市。城市附近是一個名為維蘇威的火山。公元后79年8月24日，火山爆發，火山巖、火山灰和巖石傾瀉而出至周圍的鄉村。接下來的三天里，它一直在噴發。不幸的是，所有的人都被活埋，這個城市也是如此。

第三天——7月17日

今天我看到古羅馬城市龐貝2000年前的樣子。多么讓人吃驚啊！這個城市被遺忘了很多年，直到18世紀有個農夫發現一些有著文字可在上面的石頭。人們開始為了寶藏挖掘這個地區，這導致了很多傷害。所以在1860年，意大利考古學家朱塞佩.費奧雷特被任命為挖掘龐貝的負責人。

當我在城市四周漫步，我看到的街道正如他們曾經看到的一樣，沿路有著石頭臺階，所以你在雨天時不會在街道上踩到泥巴。我看到有幾座有著馬賽克地板和壁畫的房子。我也看到人們那但他們被火山灰覆蓋式就已經變成石頭的尸體

——他們準確的保持著2000年前的樣子。火山仍然在哪里。我透過雙筒望遠鏡看到了它。這個安靜的火山是如何摧毀整個城市是難以想象的！

明天我們將會離開去那不勒斯去參觀儲藏著來自龐貝的很多財富的博物館。

第十天——7月24日

最后，在幾天的航行后我們到達了樓蘭。我太累了以至于吃不下任何東西。我既沒有吃面條也沒有吃米飯，而且當我們到達時我非常饑餓。

這個小型的、富有的商業城市大約存在于2000年前。它是在東西方著名的絲綢之路上的停靠點。許多人相信它是被公元200到500年間的沙塵暴逐漸覆蓋了。我能夠在這里真是激動人心！

第十一天——7月25日

一個來自本地文化機構的考古學家，張教授，告訴我們100年前瑞典探險家斯文.海定發現了樓蘭王國的廢墟。斯文發現建筑物的廢墟和財寶被埋在沙塵之中，例如：硬幣，畫壺，絲綢材料，文獻和壁畫。當我們來到這個城市，我們看到城墻，宮殿，寺院，作坊和塔。我們發現這些廢墟非常有趣。有一個古代水利系統流過城市中央。這個沙漠曾經是有著巨大樹木的綠洲，但是，既便如此也沒有阻止得了這個城市被沙塵覆蓋——真是遺憾！
