Lesson 1 Finding fossil man 发现化石人We can read of things that happened 5,000 years ago in the Near East, where people first learned to write.But there are some parts of the word where even now people cannot write. The only way that they can preserve their history is to recount it as sagas -- legends handed down from one generation of another. These legends are useful because they can tell us something about migrations of people who lived long ago, but none could write down what they did. Anthropologists wondered where the remote ancestors of the Polynesian peoples now living in the Pacific Islands came from. The sagas of these people explain that some of them came from Indonesia about 2,000 years ago.But the first people who were like ourselves lived so long ago that even their sagas, if they had any, are forgotten. So archaeologists have neither history nor legends to help them to find out where the first 'modern men' came from.Fortunately, however, ancient men made tools of stone, especially flint, because this is easier to shape than other kinds. They may also have used wood and skins, but these have rotted away. Stone does not decay, and so the tools of long ago have remained when even the bones of the men who made them have disappeared without trace.参考译文我们从书籍中可读到5,000 年前近东发生的事情，那里的人最早学会了写字。

Lesson 13 The search for oil 探寻石油The deepest holes of all are made for oil, and they go down to as much as 25,0000 feet. But we do not need to send men down to get the oil out, 状语as we must (省略send men down)with other mineral deposits. The holes are only borings,状语less than a foot in diameter. My particular experience is largely in oil, and the search for oil has done more to improve deep drilling than any other mining activity. When it has been decided 主语where we are going to drill, we put up at the surface 宾语an oil derrick. It has to be tall because it is like a giant block and tackle, and we have to lower into the ground and haul out of the ground great lengths of drill pipe 定语which are rotated by an engine at the top and are fitted with a cutting bit at the bottom.The geologist needs to know 宾语what rocks the drill has reached, so every so often a sample is obtained with a coring bit. It cuts a clean cylinder of rock, 定语from which can be seen the strata 定语the drill has been cutting through. Once we get down to the oil, it usually flows to the surfacebecause great pressure, 定语either from gas or water, is pushing it. This pressure must be under control, and we control it by means of the mud 定语which we circulate down the drill pipe. We endeavour to avoid the old, romantic idea of a gusher, 定语which wastes oil and gas. We want it to stay down the hole until we can lead it off in a controlled manner状语.。

新概念英语四册课堂笔记：Lesson 13 ThamesWatersL13 Thames WatersOxford has been ruined by the motor industry. The peace which Oxford once knew, and which a great university city should always have, has been swept ruthlessly away; and no benefactions and research endowments can make up for the change in character which the city has suffered. At six in the morning the old courts shake to the roar of buses taking the next shift to Cowley and Pressed Steel, great lorries with a double deck cargo of cars for export lumber past Magdalen and the University Church. Loads of motor-engines are hurried hither and thither and the streets are thronged with a population which has no interest in learning and knows no studies beyond servo-systems and distributors, compression ratios and camshafts.Theoretically the marriage of an old seat of learning and tradition with a new and wealthy industry might be expected to produce some interesting children. It might have been thought that the culture of the university would radiate out and transform the lives of the workers. That this has not happened may be the fault of the university, for at both Oxford and Cambridge the colleges tend to live in an era which is certainly not of the twentieth century, and upon a planet which bears little resemblance to the war-torn Earth. Wherever the fault may lie the fact remains that it is the theatre at Oxford and not at Cambridge which is on the verge of extinction, and the only fruit of the combination ofindustry and the rarefied atmosphere of learning is the dust in the streets, and a pathetic sense of being lost which hangs over some of the colleges.。

新概念第四册课文翻译及学习笔记Lesson13【课文】First listen and then answer the following question.听录音，然后回答以下问题。

What do oilmen want to achieve as soon as they strike oil?The deepest holes of all are made for oil, and they go down to as much as 25,0000 feet. But we do not need to send men down to get the oil out, as we must with other mineral deposits. The holes are only borings, less than a foot in diameter. My particular experience is largely in oil, and the search for oil has done more to improve deep drilling thanany other mining activity. When it has been decided where we are going to drill, we put up at the surface an oil derrick.It has to be tall because it is like a giant block and tackle, and we have to lower into the ground and haul out of the ground great lengths of drill pipe which are rotated by an engine at the top and are fitted with a cutting bit at the bottom.The geologist needs to know what rocks the drill has reached, so every so often a sample is obtained with a coring bit. It cuts a clean cylinder of rock, from which can be seen the strata the drill has been cutting through. Once we get down to the oil, it usually flows to the surface becausegreat pressure, either from gas or water, is pushing it. This pressure must be under control, and we control it by means of the mud which we circulate down the drill pipe. We endeavourto avoid the old, romantic idea of a gusher, which wastes oiland gas. We want it to stay down the hole until we can lead it off in a controlled manner.T.F.GASKELL The Search for the Earth's Minerals from Discovery【New words and expressions 生词和短语】mineral adj. 矿物的boring n. 钻孔derrick n. 井架block and tackle 滑轮组haul v. 拖，拉rotate v. 使转动cutting bit 钻头geologist n. 地质学家coring bit 取芯钻头cylinder n. 圆柱体strata n. 岩层[复]([单]stratum或strata [误用])circulate v. 注入，环流gusher n. 喷油井【课文注释】1.they go down to as much as 25,0000 feet，as much as意为“多达”，“达到(量)”。
