As a result，they are turning to clotheslines as part of the “what-I-can-do environmentalism (环境保护主义).”On the other side are people who are against drying clothes outside，arguing thatclotheslines are unpleasant to look at. They have persuaded Homeowners Associations (HOAs) access the U.S. to ban outdoor clotheslines，because clothesline drying also tends to lower home value in the neighborhood. This has led to a Right-to-Dry Movement that is calling for laws to be passed to protect people‟s right to use clotheslines.So far，only three states have laws to protect clothesline. Right-to-Dry supporters argue that there should be more.Matt Reck，37，is the kind of eco-conscious (有生态意识的) person who feeds his trees with bathwater and reuses water drops from his air conditioners to water plants. His family also uses a clothesline. But on July 9，2007，the HOA in Wake Forest，North Carolina，told him that a dissatisfied neighbor had telephoned them about his clothesline. The Recks paid no attention to the warning and still dried their clothes on a line in the yard. “Many people say they are environmentally friendly but they don‟t take matters into their own hands，” says Reck. The local HOA has decided not to take any action，unless more neighbors come to them.North Carolina lawmakers are saying that banning clotheslines is not the right thing to do. But HOAs and housing businesses believe that clothesline drying reminds people of poor nei ghborhoods. They worry that if buyers think their future neighbors can‟t even afford dryers，housing prices will fall.Environmentalists say such worries are not necessary，and in view of global warming，that idea needs to change. As they say，“The clot hesline is beautiful. Hanging clothes outside should be encouraged. We all have to do at least something to slow down the process of global warming.”1. One of the reasons why supporters of clothes dryers are trying to ban clothesline drying is that ______.A. clothes dryers are more efficientB. clothesline drying reduces home valueC. clothes dryers are energy-savingD. clothesline drying is not allowed in most U.S. states2. Which of the following best describes Matt Reck？A. He is a kind-hearted man.B. He is an impolite man.C. He is an experienced gardener.D. He is a man of social responsibility.3. Who are in favor of clothesline drying？A. Housing businesses.B. Environmentalists.C. Homeowners Associations.D. Reck‟s dissatisfied neighbors.4. What is mainly discussed in the text？A. Clothesline drying: a way to save energy and money.B. Clothesline drying: a lost art rediscovered.C. Opposite opinions on clothesline drying.D. Different varieties of clotheslines.泛读材料3：选用课外的相关话题的阅读素材，如：The Queen‟s English is now sounding less upper-class， a scientific study of the Queen‟s Christmas broadcasts has found. Researchers have studied each of her messages to the Commonwealth countries since 1952 to find out the change in her pronunciation from the noble Upper Received to the Standard Received.Jonathan Harrington，a professor at Germany‟s University of Munich，wanted to discover whether accent (口音) changes recorded over the past half century would take place within one person. “As far as I know，there just is nobody else for whom there is this sort of broadcast records，” he said.He said the noble way of pronouncing vowels (元音) had gradually lost ground as the noble upper-class accent over the past years. “Her accent sounds slightly less noble than it did 50 years ago. But these are very，very small and slow changes that we don‟t notice from year to year.”“We may be able to relate it to changes in the social classes，” he told The Daily Tele graph，a British newspaper. “In 1952 she would have been heard saying …thet men in the bleck het‟. Now it would be …that man in the black hat‟. Similarly she would have spoken of …the citay‟ and …duty‟，rather than …cite‟ and …dutee‟，and …hame‟ rather than …home‟. In the 1950s she would have been …lorst‟，but by the 1970s …lost‟.”The Queen‟s broadcast is a personal message to the Commonwealth countries. Each Christmas，the10-minute broadcast is put on TV at 3 pm in Britain as many families are recovering from their traditional turkey lunch (传统火鸡午餐).The results were published (发表) in the Journal of Phonetics.1. The Queen‟s broadcasts were chosen for the study mainly because ______.A. she has been Queen for many yearsB. she has a less upper-class accent nowC. her speeches are familiar to many peopleD. her speeches have been recorded for 50 years2. Which of the following is an example of a less noble accent in English？A. “duty”B. “cite”C. “hame”D. “lorst”3.

Have you found any information about London?S1: The most famous sites in London are the Tower of London, Westminster Abbey and St. Paul’s Cathedral. But most visitors also want to see the House of Parliament, Buckingham Palace, which is the Queen’s London home.S2: Once, London was a small Roman town on the north bank of the Thames, but slowly it grew into one of the world’s major cities with more than 7 million people. Different areas of London seem to be like different cities. And it also has many big parks, full of trees, flowers and grass. Sitting on the grass in the middle of Hyde Park or Kensington Gardens, you are in the country, miles away.S3: Many people think that London is all gray, but in fact red is London’s favorite color. London is at its best when people are celebrating. Then the flags, the cheering crowds and the carriages and horses all sparkle in the sunshine —if it’s not raining, of course! However, it is often foggy. That’s why it’s called “fog city”. Ask the students to read the passage and do the exercises after the passage.T: “Sightseeing in London”is about a Chinese girl’s first visit to London. It tells us how it would feel to visit London for the first time. Now read and find the answers to the questions after the text.Step ⅡReadingTask 1: Ask the students to read the text to get the main idea.T: Now please read the text and find the answers to the following questions.Show the questions on the screen.1. How did Zhang Pingyu plan her tour?2. What were the buildings mentioned in the text? What were they famous for? Who built them? What happened to them?Sample answers:1. First, she made a list of the sites she wanted to see. Then she planed her four-day trip.2. The buildings mentioned in the text were:Tower, built by Norman invaders of AD 1066, it is a solid, stone, square tower which remained standing for one thousand years; St Paul ’s Cathedral, built after the terrible fire of London in 1666, looked splendid; Westminster Abbey, contains statues in memory of dead poets and writers; Greenwich, the longitude line; Big Ben; Highgate Cemetery; Windsor Castle.Task 2: Ask the students to study the structure of the text “Sightseeing in London ”. Show the following.Task 3: Deal with reading task:A particular British celebrationAsk the students to read the passage quickly for the first time to find out the main idea of the text. Then ask them to read the text again carefully to obtain some details and do the exercises after the text.T: Guy Fawkes Night is celebrated in Britain annually on November 5th. The event is acpanied by firework displays, the lighting of bonfires and the ceremonial effigy-burning of one Guy Fawkes. The origin of this celebration es from the event which took place in 1605 and was a conspiracy known as “The Gunpowder Plot ”, intended to take place on November 5th of that year (the day set for the opening of Parliament). Now read the text and then find the answers to the exercises. Sample answers to Exercise 1:Oct. 10: one of Fawkes ’ Catholic friends, named Catesby, asked him if he would support a plan to change the government and replace it with another.Oct. 27: Fawkes and Cat esby arranged to buy a house close to the Houses of Parliament.The third day 1. High gate Cemetery2. The Library of theBritish Museum3. Windsor CastleGreenwichOct. 28-31: Catesby and Fawkes bought large containers of gunpowder and stored them in the cellar.Nov. 6: the king and all his advisers would be in the parliament for the meeting. Sample answers to Exercise 2:S1: I would not like to be King James, because he kept changing his mind. He would say, “I could not be tolerant of their religion.”And he took actions to stop people believing in Catholic.S2: I would like to be Robert Catesby. He would say like this: The king is never so tolerant of the Catholics. So I decided that a violent action is the only answer. The thing to do was to blow up the Houses of Parliament. In doing so, we would kill the King, maybe even the Prince of Wales, and the Members of Parliament who were making life difficult for the Catholics. And to carry out the plan, Catesby and his men got hold of 36 barrels of gunpowder —and stored them in a cellar, just under the House of Lords.S3: I would be an eyewitness: As the group worked on the plot, it became clear that innocent people would be hurt or killed in the attack, including some people who even fought for more rights for Catholics. Some of the plotters sta rted having second thoughts. One of the group members even sent an anonymous letter warning his friend, Lord Monteagle, to stay away from the Parlia-ment on November 5th.S4: I would not like to be Guy Fawkes. Because he would say, “some of us have betrayed, so we should start the plan in advance.”So he tried to start the fire. Butthe soldiers found him before he could do anything and he was taken to the Tower of London to be killed.S5: If King James had kept his promise, nothing would have happened.Step ⅢHomeworkAsk the students to review the words learnt in this unit.。
