The surgeon was asked to go there at once to operate on a very sick boy who shot himself while playing with a gun.The doctor was soon on his way to Clens Falls. It was 60 miles away. And it was snowing heavily in the city. The surgeon thought he could get there before 12 o’clock.A few minutes later, the doctor was stopped by a man in an old black coat. Gun in hand, the man ordered the doctor to get out. Then the man drove the car down the road, leaving the doctor in the falling snow.It was after 2 o’clock in the morning when the d octor arrived at the hospital in Clens Falls. Dr. Haydon told him that the boy had died an hour before.The two doctors walked by the door of the hospital waiting room. There sat the man in the old black coat with his head in his hands.“Mr. Cuninghan,” said Dr. Haydon to the man, “This is Dr. Eyck. He is the surgeon who walked all the way from Albany to save your boy.”41. Dr. Haydon asked Dr. Eyck to come to Clens Falls because _____.A. Dr. Eyck knew the boy was wounded by a shotB.

Dr.Eyck had arrived earlier than the manD. Dr. Eyck had arrived there two hours earlierBIf parents bring up a child with the aim of turning the child into a genius(天才), they will cause great damage to him. According to several leading educational psychologists, this is one of the biggest mistakes which some parents make. Generally, the child will understand very well what the parents expect, and will fail. Unrealistic parents’ expe ctations can cause great damage to children.However, if parents are not unrealistic about what they expect their children to do, but are hopeful in a sensible way, the child may succeed in doing very well – especially if the parents are very supportive to their children.Michael Li is very lucky. He is very fond of music and his parents help him a lot by taking him to concerts and arranging private piano and violin lessons for him. They even drive him 50 kilometers twice a week for violin lessons. Although Michael’s mother knows very little about music. Michael’s father plays the trumpet (小号) in a large orchestra. However, he never makes Michael enter music competitions if he is unwilling.Michael’s friend, Wiston Chen, however, is not so lucky. Although bo th his parents are successful musicians, they set too high a standard for Wiston. They want their son to be as successful as they are and so they enter him for every piano competition held. They are very unhappy when he doesn’t win. “When I was at your age, I used to win every competition I entered.” Wiston’s father tells him. Wiston is always afraid that he will disappoint his parents and now he always seems quiet and unhappy.41. Michael is lucky because _______.A. his parents are rich enough to have a carB. his father is a musician in an orchestraC. he doesn’t do anything that his parents allow him to.D. his parents help him in a sensible way42. Wiston’s parents set so high a standard for him that ________ .A. he is afraid he may disappoint themB. he has to do his best do everythingC. he had made greater progress in musicD. he often wants to kill himself some day43. A ccording to the author’s opinion _________ .A. it is unimportant to let the children develop in the way they wantB. parents should be supportive to their childrenC. all sensible parents can train their children to succeed in everythingD. unrealistic parents should arrange private lessons for their childrenCbuddies. On this particular day in May, the grandfather was pleased to have the company of his best little pal when planting the vegetable garden. For a while, the boy seemed to like it too. His small fingers were just the right size to pick up tiny seeds and drop them into Grand dad’s made holes. They were a great team.But before long the boy became restless and directed his anger at the seeds themselves.“What’s this one, Granddad?”“Beets (甜菜).”“Ugh, I hate beets.”“Well, then, let’ s do the pumpkin instead.”“Yuck. I really hate pumpkin.”“Okay, buddy. What would you like to plant?”“How about．．．doughnuts (油炸圈饼)?”Just in time, the grandfather stopped himself from saying there was no such thing as a doughnut seed. Looking at the unhappy little face, he suddenly got an inspiration.“Wait a second. I have to go inside and get the right seeds.”Granddad returned with a handful of seeds. He and the small boy solemnly planted them in a special corner of the vegetable garden.Weeks later, when the real seeds began to break through the soil, the boy became delighted with the tiny seedlings. He spent many afternoons helping Granddad water and hoe and watch them grow. And when the first baby vegetables were harvested, he liked them after all.For weeks, he forgot all about the doughnuts. But then one day at lunch, he said, “Granddad, what happened to our doughnuts? How come they didn’ t grow?”Granddad paused a moment. “Well, you know, doughnuts are tricky. Some years when you plant them, you get lots of doughnuts.” He sighed sadly. “But other years, all that comes up are the holes.”41. The word “buddies” in the first sentence probably means_____ .A. the old and the youngB. gardeners or farmersC. friends or partnersD. teammates or classmates42.

Unit 3 Under the sea[导语]捕鲸业是世界上古老的行业之一，它的历史发展和现状如何呢？The whaling industry is one of the oldest industries in existence.It has undergone vast changes since its beginning，primarily due to the creation of the International Whaling Commission. Commercial whaling still continues throughout the world，but the whaling quotas are restricted by the commission，thereby helping conserve the whale populations.Whaling refers to hunting whales primarily for their oil，meat and bones.Whaling dates back to prehistoric times，most prevalent in Norway and Japan.The hunt became an industry in the 1600s in the Arctic regions，mostly by the Dutch and British.American colonists started whaling in the 1700s.Nantucket whalers were the first to kill a sperm whale，and the discovery of spermaceti in the whale's head made the sperm whale one of the most highly prized catches.Whaling ships set out from New England into the Pacific for extremely long voyages to hunt down these whales.Whaling industry has been a part of a variety of countries' industries.The following countries were the earliest pioneers in the whaling industry：England，France，Germany，Iceland，Japan，the Netherlands，Norway and the American colonies (although they were not a country at the time)．The following countries still practice whaling in some form or fashion：Canada，Greenland，the Grenadines，Iceland，Indonesia，Japan，the Netherlands，Norway，Russia and the United States.[词海拾贝]1．vast adj.广阔的；巨大的2．primarily ad v.首先；最初3．commission n．委员会4．commercial adj.商业的5．quota n．配额6．prevalent adj.盛行的7．sperm whale 巨头鲸；抹香鲸[问题思考]1．What helps conserve the whale populations?_______________________________________________________ 2．What made the sperm whale one of the most highly prized catches?_______________________________________________________ 答案：1.That the whaling quotas are restricted.2．The discovery of spermaceti in the whale's head.Ⅰ.将单词与其正确释义连线1．anecdote A．锐利的；锋利的2．accommodation B．浅的；肤浅的；浅显的3．yell C．陡峭的4．teamwork D．生动的；鲜明的5．flee E．配合；协作6．depth F．纯的；纯粹的；纯洁的7．conservation G．住所；住宿8．pure H．狭窄的；有限的；狭隘的9．vivid I．大叫；呼喊10．narrow J．轶事，奇闻11．sharp K．逃避，逃跑12．shallow L．保存，保护13．steep M．深(度)；深处答案：1－J2－G3－I4－E5－K6－M7－L8－F9－D10－H11－A12－B13－CⅡ.根据句意写出黑体部分的词性及词义1．They have opposite views on the event.()2．Looking out of the window，I see a lot of children play and yell.()3．Father always impresses the importance of teamwork on me.()4．The depth of this river is about three metres.()5．We should pay more attention to the conservation of wildlife.

Unit 3 Under the seaPeriod 3 A sample lesson plan for Using Language(A New Dimension of life)IntroductionLanguage is learned to be used in and for communication. So in this period we shall have the students read, listen, write and speak in English, making use of the focused words, collocations, structures and topic ideas covered in this unit. Warming up by listening and reading aloud is to be followed by reading for forms, copying and making sentences, putting the text A New Dimension of Life into a short play, writing a paragraph and reading, discussing and listening about whale watching tours. The class will end in students speaking and writing.ObjectivesTo help students read the passage A New Dimension of lifeTo help students to use the language by reading, listening, speaking and writingProcedures1.Warming up by listening and reading aloudWhy do we read aloud? Because reading aloud:∙Is great fun, and it benefits our growth as readers and learners.∙Nurtures our love of both the written and spoken word.∙Gives us a chance to rediscover favorite stories and find new ones.Helps us develop important language skills that will help us learn to read on our own.So open your book to page 23 and read the text aloud while listening to the recording. Watch your pauses between the thought groups.2. Reading for formsRead the text again to: cut/ the sentence into thought groups, blacken the predicates, darken the connectives and underline all the useful collocations.3. Finding collocations and making sentencesThere are several different types of collocation made from combinations of verb, noun, adjective etc. Some of the most common types are: •Adverb + Adjective: completely satisfied (NOT downright satisfied) •Adjective + Noun: excruciating pain (NOT excruciating joy)•Noun + Noun: a surge of anger (NOT a rush of anger)•Noun + Verb: lions roar (NOT lions shout)•Verb + Noun: commit suicide (NOT undertake suicide)•Verb + Expression With Preposition: burst into tears (NOT blow up in tears)•Verb + Adverb: wave frantically (NOT wave feverishly)You are asked to read the text and find all the useful collocations and copy them into your Collocation Book after class as homework. You may make your own sentences with these collocations.4. Put the text A New Dimension of Life into a short playActing out the text is a strategy for motivating us to read out loud the text. We need oral practice and help with pronunciation and so acting out the text really helps us.A New Dimension of LifeAct OneIt’s 8:00am, a warm morning, at the side of the reef. The sea ripples abit and a man is preparing to go snorkeling on the reef.Jerry: Well, (looks at all his equipment) I’m ready now! (confidently) One, two, three…go! (jumps into t he sea)(Jerry sees all the vivid colors surrounding him-purples, reds, yellows, blues and greens and all kinds of corals shaped like fans, plates, brains, lace, mushrooms, the branches of trees and the horns of deer.)Jerry: (surprisingly) Wow…that’s fan tastic! (at the very time, a group of fish swims by and a fish stops and begins to talk with him)The fish: (elegantly) Hi, body! Where are you going?Jerry:(friendly) Hello, Mr. Fish, I’m just going around and trying to find something new to me.The fish: Oh, this is the right place. Good luck! (then goes away) (Jerry continues to swim, after a while, he sees a little thing. And then he goes close to it, trying to find what it is.)Jerry: (happily) Oh, another small cute fish! (then says friendly to it-a little orange and white fish) Morning, boy!Anemone fish: (frightened) Who are you?Jerry: Man.Anemone fish: What is man? I’ve never seen Man before!Jerry: Stuff like me is called Man. And who are you?Anemone fish:Anemone fish…(it seems extremely frigh tened, and slip away, hiding in the poisonous tentacles of the sea anemones)Jerry:(murmurs) … a coward fish, but anyway, fantastic! (then he sees another fish even more fantastic than the anemone fish…)(Jerry sees a small fish is cleaning the body of a large fish.)Jerry: (crying) Dangerous! Go away!Small fish:(smiling at him) Don’t worry! We are friends! (it then gets inside the mouth of the larger fish and begins to clean its teeth) Jerry:(opens his mouth widely) Wow, I’ve never thought of this! Jerry:I’d better go! That’s too scaring!(There are lots of strange creatures. By the way he swims, he sees a yellow and green parrotfish hanging upside down, gathering tiny plants off the coral with its hard bird-like mouth; a yellow-spotted red sea-slug sliding by a blue sea-star; an orange and blue-striped angelfish looking straight at him; a large wise-looking turtle passing so close to me that I could touched it. )Jerry: (says to himself) A wonderful underground world! When I come back, I will tell Marry.Act Two(A whole day’s traveling finishes, and Jerry goes back home, sitting in the warm night air with a cold drink in his hand, talking with his wife-Marry) Marry: … then what else did you see? (with her chin on her fist, seems really interested in Je rry’s experience)Jerry: …then I said goodbye to the friendly turtle and went swimming again, and I met other creatures that I didn’t want to get close to-an eel with its strong sharp teeth, with only its head showing from a hole, watching for a tasty fish, or my tasty toe; and the giant clam half buried in some coral waiting for something to swim in between its thick green lips. Then there are two gray reef sharks, you know, each about one and a half meters long, which suddenly appeared behind some coral.Marry: Oh, that’s too dangerous!Jerry: That’s the case, and I told myself they weren’t dangerous but that didn’t stop me from feeling scared to death for a moment! The water was quite shallow but where the reef ended, there was a sharp drop to the sandy ocean floor. I thought I was very brave when I swam over the edge of the reef and hung there looking down into depths of the ocean. My heart was beating wildly-I felt exposed in such deep clear water!Marry: …and it’s very interesting!Jerry: Oh, what a wonderful, limitless world it is down there! And what a tiny spot I am in this enormous world!(The end)5. Writing a paragraphLet’s read A New Dimension of life on page 23 again. Pay attention to the ways the author uses words and collocations to describe colors, patterns, shapes, and animals.Now you are to write a paragraph describing a place and the plants or animals there.The first stop on a visit to Zuoquan is the Mt. Miao’er Scenic Area, known as the National Geographical Park, featuring geological structure movements and hydraulic creations. The whole area is scattered with valleys, such as Chazuogou and Yaojiagou. Measuring 1,500 meters long and a dozen meters wide, Chazuogou has currents and deep pools, and is where a gorge, 700 meters high, forms a fantastic view. Walking along plank roads on precipitous cliffs, one can clearly see the traces of geographical transformation and the effect water erosion has had on the area over the years.Ganlanba (Olive Dam), a complex of several villages inhabited by the Dai people, is shaped like an olive and abounds in evergreen plants; hence its name. Viewed from the air, the villages are connected to one another and covered with green trees, while Buddhist pagodas and bamboo tower houses stand out amidst the lush green. Ganlanba is also known as Menghan ("han" means rolling up), and according to a legend, from which the name derives, when Sakyamuni came here to preach Buddhism, his followers laid a cotton cloth on the ground for him to tread on. After he had walked over it, his followers rolled up the cloth.I was shocked to see fish tanks (鱼缸) with so many live fish. Each did not have enough room to turn round and there were dead fish floating on the surface. I was horrified (惊骇的), but then I saw hundreds of crabs (螃蟹) in pots dying under the bright lights. But for a lifelong animal lover like me, the worst were the tanks of turtles, all destined (去往…的) to end up as soup.Iguanodon, or "iguana tooth" was a large plant eater who was 30 feet long and stood 6 feet tall when on his hind legs. This dinosaur from the Early Cretaceous period had large thumb spikes, thought to be used for defense or possibly to pull branches off trees. Iguanodon could walk on it's hind feet or on all fours and was a very good swimmer.6. Reading, discussing and listening about whale watching toursWhale watching as a commercial activity began in 1955 in North America along the southern California coast. Today, whale watching is carried on in the waters of some 40 countries, plus Antarctica. All the large whale species and many dolphins and porpoises canbe seen regularly on a wide range of tours,lasting from an hour to two weeks. Whale watching is a non-consumptive use of whales with economic, recreational, educational and scientific dimensions. The economic benefits occur in areas where whale watching has quickly become a significant aspect of a local tourism economy.Now you may turn to page 25.

Closing down by speaking and writingFlying as an airline passenger is an often memorable experience, but there are times where the experience is memorable for all the wrong reasons: mechanical problems, poor service, bad food, lost luggage, or any of a number of other problems that result in a significant inconvenience or financial loss for the passenger. If you experience this kind of problem with your airline, you may want to deal with it by lodging a complaint with the airline or to one of the authorities that oversee air transportation.On page 27, at the top, there are some collocations.
