Lesson 61 Trouble with the Hubble 哈勃望远镜的困境First listen and then answer the question.听录音, 然后回答以下问题.What is the special importance of a telescope in space?The Hubble telescope was launched into space by NASA on April 20, 1990 at a cost of over a billion dollars. Right from the start there was trouble with the Hubble. The pictures it sent us were very disappointing because its main mirror was faulty! NASA is now going to put the telescope right, so it will soon be sending up four astronauts to repair it. The shuttle Endeavour will be taking the astronauts to the Hubble. A robot-arm from the Endeavour will grab the telescope and hold it while the astronauts make the necessary repairs. Of course, the Hubble is above the earth's atmosphere, so it will soon be sending us the clearest pictures of the stars and distant galaxies that we have ever seen. The Hubble will tell us a great deal about the age and size of the universe. By the time you read this, the Rubble's eagle eye will have sent us thousands and thousands of wonderful pictures.【参考译文】哈勃望远镜于1990年4月20日由国家航空航天局发射升空, 耗资10多亿美元. 从最开始哈勃望远镜就有问题. 它传送给我们的图像很令人失望,因为它的主要镜子有误差.国家航天局准备纠正这一错误,为此将把4名宇航员送入太空修复望远镜. “奋进”号航天飞机将把宇航员送上哈勃. 当宇航员进行必要的修复工作时, “奋进”号上的一只机器手将抓住望远镜并托住它.当然,哈勃位于地球的大气层之外,因此,它很快就会给我们传送我们所见到过的、有关行星和远距离星系的最清晰的照片.哈勃将告诉我们有关宇宙的年龄和大小的许多事情. 等到你读到这篇文章时, 敏锐的哈勃望远镜已经为我们送来了成千上万张精彩的照片.中文名称：哈勃空间望远镜英文名称：Hubble space telescope;HST定义：1990年4月24日发射的，设置在地球轨道上的，通光口径2.4m的反射式天文望远镜。

What was the danger to the villages after the fire?Firemen had been fighting the forest for nearly three weeks before they could get it under control. A short time before, great trees had covered the countryside for miles around. Now, smoke still rose up from the warm ground over the desolate hills. Winter was coming on and the hills threatened the surrounding villages with destruction, for heavy rain would not only wash away the soil but would cause serious floods as well. When the fire had at last been put out, the forest authorities ordered several tons of a special type of grass-seed which would grow quickly. The seed was sprayed over the ground in huge quantities by aeroplanes. The planes had been planting seed for nearly a month when itbegan to rain. By then, however, in many places the grass had already taken root. In place of the great trees which had been growing there for centuries patches of green had begun to appear in the blackened soil.New words and expressions 生词和短语1. control [kən'trəul] n. 控制2. smoke [sməuk]n. 烟3. desolate ['desələt, 'desəleit]adj. 荒凉的4. threaten['θretən]v. 威胁5. surrounding [sə'raundiŋ]adj. 周围的6. destruction [di'strʌkʃən]n. 破坏，毁灭7. flood [flʌd] n. 洪水，水灾8. authority [ɔ:'θɔrəti]n. （常用复数）当局9. grass-seed ['gra:s'si:d] n. 草籽10.spray [sprei] v. 喷撒11.quantity ['kwɔntəti]n. 量12.root [ru:t, rut]n. 根13.century ['sentʃuri] n. 世纪14.patch [pætʃ] n. 小片15.blacken ['blækən] v. 变黑，发暗参考译文消防队员们同那场森林大火搏斗了将近3个星期才最后把火势控制住。

Lesson 66:Sweet as honey! 像蜜一样甜！First listen and then answer the question.听录音，然后回答以下问题。

What was 'sweet as honey' and why?In 1963 a Lancaster bomber crashed on Wallis Island, a remote place in the South Pacific, a long way west of Samoa. The plane wasn't too badly damaged, but over the years, the crash was forgotten and the wreck remained undisturbed. Then in 1989, twenty-six years after the crash, the plane was accidentally rediscovered in an aerial survey of the island. By this time, a Lancaster bomber in reasonable condition was rare and worth rescuing. The French authorities had the plane packaged and moved in parts back to France. Now a group of enthusiasts are going to have the plane restored. It has four Rolls-Royce Merlin engines, but the group will need to have only three of them rebuilt. Imagine their surprise and delight when they broke open the packing cases and found that the fourth engine was sweet as honey -- still in perfect condition. A colony of bees had turned the engine into a hive and it was totally preserved in beeswax!(文中出现的部分生词注音：Wallis ['vɑ:lis] Island ['ailənd] 瓦立斯岛Samoa [sə'məuə] 萨摩亚群岛accidentally [,æksi'dentli]偶然地Rolls-Royce ['rəulz'rɔis]（劳斯莱斯）Merlin ['mə:lin]梅林)New words and expressions 生词和短语Lancaster ['læŋkəstə] n. 兰开斯特bomber ['bɔmə] n. 轰炸机remote [ri'məut] adj. 偏僻的Pacific [pə'sifik] n. 太平洋damage ['dæmidʒ] v. 毁坏wreck [rek] n. 残骸rediscover [,ri:di'skʌvə] v. 重新发现aerial ['εəriəl] adj. 航空的survey [sə:'vei, 'sə:vei, sə-] n. 调查rescue ['reskju:] v. 营救package ['pækidʒ] v. 把......打包enthusiast [in'θju:ziæst,inθu:-] n. 热心人restore [ri'stɔ:] v. 修复imagine [i'mædʒin] v. 想像packing case ['pækiŋ keis]包装箱colony ['kɔləni] n. 群bee [bi:] n. 蜂hive [haiv] n. 蜂房preserve [pri'zə:v] v. 保护beeswax ['bi:zwæks] n. 蜂蜡【生词讲解】ncaster ['læŋkəstə] n. 兰开斯特2. bomber ['bɔmə] n. 轰炸机bomb n. 炸弹a time bomb 定时炸弹an atomic bomb 原子弹a bomblet 小炸弹（-let表示“小的”）go like a bomb 非常成功bomber ['bɔmə] n. 轰炸机（注意其中的字母b是不发音的）发音规则：-mb- 中，b 不发音eg. climb bomb comb tomb thumb dumb3. remote [ri'məut] adj. 偏僻的1) adj. 遥远的，偏远的=distanta remote island in the Pacific Ocean太平洋的一个遥远的小岛a remote village.一个偏远的村庄2) adj. （时间上）久远的，遥远的in the remote past 在遥远的过去in the remote future 在遥远的将来4.

Lesson 49 The end of a dream美梦告终How did the dream endTired of sleeping on the floor, a young man in Teheran saved up for years to buy a real bed. For the first time in his life, he became the proud owner of a bed which had springs and a mattress. Because the weather was very hot, he carried the bed on to the roof of his house. He slept very well for the first two nights, but on the third night, a storm blew up. A gust of wind swept the bed off the roof and sent it crashing into the courtyard below. The young man did not wake up until the bed had struck the ground. Although the bed was smashed to pieces, the man was miraculously unhurt. When he woke up, he was still on the mattress. Glancing at the bits of wood and metal that lay around him, the man sadly picked up the mattress and carried it into his house. After he had put it on the floor, he promptly went to sleep again.参考译文德黑兰的一个人年轻人由于对睡地板感到厌倦，于是积蓄多年买了一张真正的床。
