When the Europeans first came to America, the Native Americans taught them how to grow crops for a living. So those first settlers celebrated Thanksgiving for a good harvest. The earliest celebration was the one in September 1565, in Florida. Since then the tradition has been carried through even today.Thanksgiving is celebrated on the second Monday of October every year in Canada. It dates back to Martin Frobisher, who celebrated it in 1578 out of appreciation for having survived his journey trying to find a northern entrance to the East. The turkey is probably the most traditional part of this harvest festival. That is why Thanksgiving Day is often referred to as Turkey Day. The turkey is stuffed with food materials like stuffing, chopped onions, carrots and so on. This is then roasted, and placed at the center of the dinner table, ready to be cut into portions for everyone. Now many households serve duck, goose, or chicken instead of turkey. And for those who are vegetarian, they have the option of tofu with turkey flavoring. For dessert, there is the Thanksgiving pumpkin, apple, or chocolate pie.

First, I went with two friends to a local shop to rent a haneto —that’s the costume you wear. It’s easy … anyone can do it and anyone can dance in the festival. The parade is loud and beautiful. People beat drums and dance around. The only bad part was when I injured my ankle from too much dancing! At night, after the parade, we watched some beautiful floats go down the river.Audio Track 2-7-7/ Audio Track 2-7-8Marissa: I spent two months traveling through India with my best friend. One of my best memories is the Holi Festival. We went to a local store and bought some colored powder. Then we mixed it with water.On the day of the festival, someone gave me a water pistol. I filled it with my colored water and started shooting everyone. I even sprayed a police officer! What a mess! It took a long time before the color came out of my skin.Audio Track 2-7-9/ Audio Track 2-7-10Dan: OK, Marcia, that’s it.

Are Mom and Dad going to be surprised?Audio Track 2-7-11Carnival is a very colorful and interesting festival in our city, but it gets very crowded. Before you come here, you should find a hotel room. Then, after you arrive, get the most recent schedule for the festival. Sometimes it changes. The most important event is the parade on Sunday. Bring a folding chair, and be sure to find a good place to sit before the parade starts. After you find a place, just relax and have fun while you wait. People usually bring food to eat before the parade starts. Many people go to restaurants or parties after the parade finishes.Audio Track 2-7-12/ Audio Track 2-7-13Celebrate Mardi Gras in New Orleans!Mardi Gras falls on a Tuesday about six weeks before Easter, a holiday in March or April. Before Mardi Gras even begins, there are over seventy parades of dazzling floats. Come join us for a festival you’ll never forget!Tips for visitors:Plan ahead. Many hotels start taking reservations for Mardi Gras in August. To getthe room youwant, call early. Don’t wait until January!Plan your transportation. Many streets are closed to cars, and bus and streetcar schedules are often changed. Get there early. Plan to arrive about four hours ahead of any big parade. For the popular Sunday night parade, find a space in the morning. You might need a jacket, sunglasses, an umbrella, or all three.Catch Mardi Gras “throws.” People ride on floats in the parades and give “throws” to the crowd. Jump up to catch beads, plastic coins, cups, and toy animals. Bring a plastic bag to hold you’re your treasures.Audio Track 2-7-14A groundhog is a small animal covered with brown fur. It lives in a hole in the ground. During the winter, it stays underground and sleeps and eats. When people see the groundhog in the winter, they think spring is coming soon.Punxsutawney Pete is a groundhog. He lives in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania. On February 2, Pete’s hometown comes alive — as many as 30,000 sightseers gather to celebrate Groundhog Day. Beginning in the morning, they watch for Pete to come out of his hole. Most years he comes out, sees his shadow, and runs back into the hole. That means there will be at least six more weeks of cold, wintery weather. Occasionally, Pete comes out of his hole and stays outside for a while. That’s a good sign. It means that spring weather will arrive soon.Audio Track 2-7-15/ Audio Track 2-7-16After Pete appears, the people of Punxsutawney celebrate. There is a barbecue, a colorful festival in the park, a souvenir show and sale, and even a storytelling festival. There is a lot to do in this little town on Groundhog Day!Pete is a famous groundhog. In 1986, he met the president of the United States. There was a bigHollywood movie made about him in 1993. And in 1995, he was a guest on the Oprah Winfrey show, a popular TV talk show.Unfortunately, Pete has seen his shadow about 85 percent of the time since the tradition started in 1887. Let’s hope next year is different!Audio Track 2-7-171. Do you want to go hiking?2. Do you want to have dinner?3. Would you like to go hiking?4. Would you like to have dinner?Audio Track 2-7-181.

He invited me to some party tonight.Roberto and Claudia: No …Audio Track 2-7-22Claudia invited Tara to a luau and told her to bring friends. Tara then asked Sun-hee if she would like to go. At first, Sun-hee said she couldn’t because she had promised to help Takeshi with his film project. But then Sun-hee invited Takeshi to go after they finished their work. Takeshi agreed immediately but he requested if he could bring Mike along. Sun-hee told him to go ahead. Then Takeshi called Mike to see if he was interested in going to the party. Mike was quite enthusiastic about going and he knew Roberto also loved parties, so he quickly responded “Sure! Hey, why don’t we invite Roberto, too?” However, when Mike called Roberto to invite him, Roberto told Mike he couldn’t go to the party because he was already going to some “luau” with Claudia. At the end of the video, Roberto and Claudia realized that their friends were actually talking about the same party. That’s why the sto ry was funny!（注：可编辑下载，若有不当之处，请指正，谢谢!）。

Unit 7 Sports and HobbiesListeningAudio Track 3-7-1A: Hi, what’s your favorite sport?B: Well, it’s a relaxing sport.A: Do you do it alone?B: Well, you can do it alone but I do it with other people. Our college has a special club.A: Does it require special skills or training?B: No, it doesn’t. That’s one of the things I like about it. Anyone can do it.A: Is it popular?B: Yes, I see many people doing it in the morning when I am on my way to college. And there are lots of people doing it when I visit the track in the evening.A: So, is jogging your favorite sport?B: Yep.A: Terrific! Jogging is also my favorite sport!Audio Track 3-7-2/Audio Track 3-7-3My favorite hobby is nature photography. I’ve been taking pictures outdoors for more than ten years. In that time, I’ve traveled to several national parks in my country. I’ve also visited Mexico and Brazil. I like to take pictures of birds and animals. I’ve gotten some really nice photos, but sometimes I can’t find my favorite pictures. That’s because I haven’t put them in albums yet!Audio Track 3-7-4/Audio Track 3-7-5/Audio Track 3-7-6Conversation 1:Host: Hello, Spencer. How are you?Spencer: Fine, thank you. I’m excited to be here.Host: Great! I see a photo in your hand. What is it?Spencer: Well, it’s a picture of something that’s famous worldwide.Host: Wow! Look at that! Is it yours?Spencer: It certainly is. I didn’t buy it, though. My father gave it to me.Host: How did your father get it?Spencer: He carried it in the 1984 Olympics. He was one of the runners. After the Olympics finished, he bought the torch and gave it to me.Host: You must be athletic, too, right?Spencer: No, not at all. I’m terrible at sports.Host: Well, what was your father’s event?Spencer: He ran the 800 meters. He won his first race, but lost the second one.Host: Fascinating …Well, your father wasn’t only a strong athlete —he was also a good collector. Do you have any idea how much the torch is worth?Spencer: Not at all.Host: It’s a good item to have. It’s probably worth several thousand dollars.Spencer: Wow!Host: What are you going to do with it?Spencer: For now. I’m going to keep it. Someday I’ll give it to a museum.Conversation 2:Host: Hi, Greta, it’s nice to see you’ve brought us a fun object.Greta: Yeah. I really like it.Host: Did you play with it when you were a kid?Greta: A little, but not so much. My brother played with it all the time. I played with my teddy bear collection.Host: Do you know anything about this toy?Greta: I did some research. I know it was made in Germany by the Lehmann Company. I’m not sure of the date.Host: OK … anything else?Greta: That’s about it.Host: Well, let me tell you a little bit about the Lehmann Company. Their toys were very popular in the first half of the twentieth century. They’re still making toys today.Greta: I didn’t know that.Host: How much did you pay for this toy?Greta: Nothing. A neighbor gave it to us before he moved away.Host: Oh, that’s good news …Because unfortunately, this toy is not a Lehmann toy.Greta: It’s not?Host: Nope. I’m sorry, but it’s a fake.Greta: You’re kidding!Host: No, I’m not. Look at the bottom of the toy. A Lehmann toy will have the letter “e” marked on it. Yours doesn’t have that.Greta: Oh, how disappointing!Host: Well, it’s still in good condition.Greta: Yes, that’s true. It may not be worth anything, but I’ll always keep it for my children.Audio Track 3-7-7/Audio Track 3-7-8/Audio Track 3-7-9Alfredo: Well, Ivan, now that final exams are finished, what are you going to do?Ivan: That’s easy, Alfredo. Take a break! I’m exhausted. How about you?Alfredo: Same here. I need to rest for a couple of days. Then I’m going on a trip next week. Ivan: Where are you going?Alfredo: My wife and I are going to the Vista View Resort.Ivan: That sounds relaxing.Alfredo: Actually, it’s going to be kind of busy …in a fun way. They have lots of activities there … horseback riding, skydiving …Ivan: Skydiving?! Are you going to do that?Alfredo: No, I’m going for the scuba diving.Ivan: I didn’t know you were a scuba diver.Alfredo: I’m not … yet. We’re going to take lessons when we get there. By the end of the trip, I’ll be ready to try my first real dive.Ivan: That sounds like fun. I wish I could go … but my kids are too small. They’re only 10 and 12 years old.Alfred: You know, they’re not too young. There’s a “junior” program to prepare kids forscuba diving. You should check it out.Ivan: I should, but I know my wife. She’ll never agree to it. She’s afraid of the water. Alfredo: Well, here’s a brochure if you’re interested. Like I said, they have other activities beside scuba diving. They also have a full-service spa. Maybe your wife would enjoy that.Ivan: Now that’s an idea!Audio Track 3-7-10/Audio Track 3-7-11/Audio Track 3-7-12Adventurous raceIt’s a team sport. It includes mountain climbing, biking, boating, and trail running. It has lots of “special mystery events”—like climbing over a 5-meter wall, and carrying a team member for 3 kilometers. What is it?“The coolest sport I’ve ever done,”says 31-year-old Bryan Martin. He recently finished the Hawaii Adventure Race, with his team, the Outsiders. “Although everyone on our team bikes and runs every day, it was a great challenge.” His team finished fifth out of more than two hundred teams in the race.Adventure racing is a new sport that started a few years ago. In it, teams of four people race non-stop across long distances in difficult environments, 24 hours a day. There are men’s, women’s, and mixed teams. Some adventure races are just one day, but others are much longer.In the Eco-Challenge, one of the most famous races, teams must travel 500 km in ten days. They travel by running, climbing ropes, kayaking, mountain biking, and horseback riding. Every year, the Eco-Challenge is held in a different country and environment, like the jungles of Malaysia, the desert of Morocco, or the mountains of Canada.Speed and stamina are very important for adventure racers, but there’s one more unusual thing about the sport. To win the race, all team members must finish together. If one person quits, the team is out of the race. “You have to help each other, and you really learn to work together,” says Bryan Martin. “I enjoy that most of all.”Audio Track 3-7-13A brief history of the X Games1995 The first Extreme Games competition was held in 1995 in Rhode Island, USA. The athletes competed in nine events, including windsurfing and mountain biking.1996 The Extreme Games were renamed and became the X Games.1997 The first Winter X Games were held in California, USA. The athletes competed in eventssuch as snowboarding and ice climbing.1998 The first Asian X Games were held in Phuket, Thailand.2001 The first European X Games were held in Barcelona, Spain.2002 The first Latin American X Games were held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.Audio Track 3-7-14/Audio Track 3-7-15A star in the X GamesThere’s a new kind of competition happening worldwide. No, it’s not the World Cup. It’s the X Games.In different areas of the world, athletes train and compete in their own versions of the X Games. The best athletes can advance to the global championship. At the championship, teams from six regions (Asia, Australia, Canada, Europe, South America, and the United States) face each other. There are summer sports (in-line skating, biking, and skateboarding) and winter ones (skiing and snowboarding). Most “X Gamers” are male, but there are a few women. One woman, in particular, stands out from the crowd. Her na me is Fabiola da Silva. She’s an in-line skater and she comes from Brazil.There are two different in-line skating categories: park and vert. In the park event, skaters compete on a course that has ledges, handrails, and other obstacles. In the vert event, skaters do tricks in a half pipe. They try to fly high in the air and spin. Fabiola competes in both events. She has been skating for years and she has always dominated the women’s events.Fabiola would like to see more women in the X Games, but she’s not afraid of the guys. Ever since she received her first pair of skates at the age of 12, she’s played with boys. Now she skates in competitions with them and she beats many of them.Fabiola’s mother was a housekeeper. It was hard, but she saved her money to buy Fabiola’s skates. It was a good investment. Fabiola has traveled abroad for events and become famous in the skating world.Success hasn’t gone to her head, though. She’s a typical young woman of the world: She has a boyfriend, likes to listen to rock music, and prefers healthy foods. She doesn’t seem to care much about the attention she gets.Audio Track 3-7-161. board game2. basketball3. computer gameAudio Track 3-7-171. Sergel is the national table tennis champion.2.

Lance has been training since he was a boy. He was good at three sports, cycling, swimming, and running. At the age of 16 he competed in professional triathlons. After that he focused on cycling. Lance won many races until he was diagnosed with cancer in 1996. But thankfully, he recovered and later won six Tour de France bicycle races in a row. What’s more, he has written two books. Additionally, his Lance Armstrong Foundation helps cancer patients and their families.Talk 2I would choose Yao Ming to enter the International Sports Hall of Fame. As an international icon and basketball star, Yao Ming has topped many Chinese surveys about favorite athletes. He beat international soccer superstars David Beckham and Ronaldo. Actually, he has become a household name all around the world. He worked hard in the NBA, and won the respect of many other sporting giants. Not just a basketball player, he has also acted as a Special Olympics Global Ambassador and has donated a lot of money to charity. His success has influenced and encouraged many young Chinese people to work hard and to be good competitors.Talk 3Liu Xiang is not just my favorite athlete of all time, he is my idol. So if I have to choose one athlete to enter the International Sports Hall of Fame, my choice would naturally be Liu Xiang. He was the first Chinese, and the first Asian, to win the men’s 110 meters hurdles race at the Olympic Games. That was in Athens in 2004. When Liu Xiang crossed the finishing line far ahead of the other hurdlers, in a world record 12.91 seconds, he created history. I’ll certainly remember that moment forever. I felt such joy, excitement, and exhilaration. I sang out loud, cheered, and I might even have shed a tear. I certainly was not alone, I’m positive the whole of China was behaving in exactly the same way. It was Liu Xiang’s first Olympics and he won the gold medal! It really was a momentous event in sporting history.Video CourseVideo Track 3-7-1Natalie: Some of my favorite activities are going to the movies, hanging with my friends, playing with my daughter.

As Roberto was playing his guitar, Claudia said that she hoped she would be that good someday. Roberto told Claudia that he had been playing since he was a teenager and reminded her that, “Practice makes perfect!” Claudia explained that she had trouble practicing at home because Tara and Sun-hee had been studying a lot lately. Roberto told her not to worry because they could practice together. Roberto suggested three different songs to play, but Claudia hadn’t played any of them. Finally, she suggested a song she had been practicing la tely. Roberto said he hadn’t played it for a long time, but it was one of his favorites —“Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star!”。
