高二英语Unit11 Scientific achievement Ⅰ.Brief Statements Based on the UnitScience and technology are part of productive forces. The modern society has proved it. As we all see now, scientific achievements have changed the whole world and made people break away from ignorance and backwardness. The society has made great progress. This unit is arranged around the central topic—scientific achievement. In Warming up, there are several pictures asking students to talk about the most significant scientific achievements. The Speaking part introduces four different scientists who want to get money to plete their projects which are very helpful to human beings. The reading material—Zhongguancun, which is called China’s Silicon Valley, is the new centre for Chinese science and technology. By studying this unit, students also know that Chinese history is filled with great achievements in science and technology. In particular, since the year 1995 the Chinese government put forward a plan for “rejuvenating the nation by rel ying on science and education” and this has helped Chinese scientists make many breakthroughs. This unit presents four such results in Integrating Skills. As to Grammar—Word Formation, teacher should let students master some knowledge of forming a word, and know how to use stems and affixes to form a pound.II.

However, as a fledgling hi-tech munity, Zhongguancun has many differences from Silicon Valley. Silicon Valley has evolved aculture that is tuned to market-driven innovation, while in Zhongguancun, innovation is still largely driven by technology. In addition, investors in Silicon Valley are frequently an integral parts of panies day-to-day operations. While in Zhongguancun, investors has been used only as a source of financing.)T: Nice work.

After last–minute appeals from health activists, MPs(议员) agreed on a blanket prohibition (禁止) which will start in summer 2007, ending months of argumen t over whether smoking should be banned in pubs and restaura nts only. They voted to ban smoking in all pubs and clubs by 38 4 to 184, a surprisingly large margin of 200.Smoking will still be allowed in the home and in places cons idered to be homes, such as prisons, care homes and hotels.Smokers lighting up in banned areas will face a fixed fine no tice of £50 and spot fines of £200 will be introduced for failing to put up no–smoking signs, with the possible fine if the issue goes to court increasing to £1,000.Caroling Flint, the Public Health Minister, also announced th at the fine for failing to stop people smoking in banned areas w ould be increased to £2,500; more than ten times the £200 ori ginally proposed.The Bill also allows the Government to increase the age for buying cigarettes. Ministers will advise on raising it from 16 to 1 8.Smoking could still be banned at outdoor locations that are “substantially(基本上)enclosed”, such as football grounds and railway platforms.The Bill now goes to the Lords (上议院) but will be through by the summer recess.Even a plan to allow smoking to continue in private clubs w as thrown out as Mps on all sides were given permission to vote with their consciences rather than on a party line.Patricia Hewitt, the Health Secretary, said the Health Bill wo uld ban smoking in“almost every enclosed public place and wo rkplace ”in England and save thousands of lives a year.

If we add an affix (a prefix or a suffix )to a root, we can form a new word. Generally speaking, when a prefix is added to a word , it will change a word in meaning but it will not change its part of speech , some suffixes , when added to words, can change their of parts of speech and a few their meanings and parts of speech.Derivative 派生词incurableprefix+ stem + suffixTo change the meaning of the wordTo change the speech(词性) of the wordSome common prefixes :inter-- 互相,间 internet , interview , international tele○–远 telephone, telegraph, televisionco—同 coworker, cooperatesuper—超 supermarket, superstar, supermanen—使成为 encourage enlargetrans—across translate, transplant, transportsub—under subwaybio— biology, bioengineering, biophysics un- /in- /im- /non--- not---unhappy impolite nonsense dis— not discouragefore-- forearm ,foreseemis-- misunderstand, misusere-- rewrite, retell, reviewanti-- antiwar, antisocialSome common suffixes:1.for nouns: --er farmer, fighter, runner--ese Chinese, Japanese--ian musician, physician--ist artist, pianist, communist--ment government, movement, judgement--ness business, illness, darkness--or conductor, visitor, sailor--tion invention, education, action--ing feeling, smoking, building2. for adj. : --al national, political, musical--an American, Italian, Australian--ful helpful, useful, careful--able valuable, reasonable, comfortable--ive active, expensive, collective--y cloudy, windy, dirty--less careless, useless, homeless3. for verbs: --fy beautify, terrify, satisfy--ize apologize, organize, realize4. for adv. : --ly badly, angrily, happily--word(s) towards, forwards, outwardStep IV Practice1.Do all the exercises of Word Formation on the book..2.Guess the meaning of the underlined words1) Many countries import most of the oil they use.2) He studied biophysics at college.3) It is very important to learn how to cooperate with others.4) All your languages will be transported to the destination bytrain5) My cousin has an excellent voice.

These were the first roller skates. Merlin was very proud of his invention and dreamed of arriving at the party on wheels while playing the violin.On the night of the party Merlin rolled into the room playing his violin. Everyone was astonished to see him. There was just one problem. Merlin had no way to stop his roller skates. He rolled on and on. Suddenly, he ran into a huge mirror that was hanging on the wall.

Generally, sweet apples are eaten fresh while tart apples are used to make applesauce (苹果酱).Apple trees may grow as tall as twelve metres. They do best in areas that have very cold winters.
