It’s due tomorrow, Blake.Blake: What’s the topicMary: It’s about Greenland.Blake: Greenland. Hmmm …that’s part of Canada, rightMary: I think you need to study your world geography, Blake.Blake: Well, isn’t it near CanadaMary: Yes, it’s off the coast of northeast Canada, but it’s part of Denmark. Blake: Oh, I didn’t know that. Well, what’s your paper about exactlyMary: In my paper, I answer the question “Is Greenland really green” In other words, is Greenland covered by a lot of plants and treesBlake: Is itMary: What do you thinkBlake: Let’s see … Greenland is in the Arctic Circle —way up north. It’s cold, … so “Is Greenland really green” I’d answer “probably not.”Mary: You’d be correct. It’s too cold there. In the north, a lot of the ground is frozen. The summers are short, so only the surface thaws.Blake: That sounds tough.Mary: It’s hard for the construction industry. It’s not easy to build in Greenland. Blake: It sounds so harsh. Why would anyone want to go thereMary: There are big mountain ranges on the coasts. They’re great for hiking and outdoor sports. And there are lots of animals there. You can sometimes see whales swimming in the harbors.Blake: That sounds cool! OK, so if it’s not really a “green” place, why was itnamed “Greenland”Mary: The first settlers wanted to attract other people. They gave it an attractive name.Audio Track 4-1-4/Audio Track 4-1-5Jay: Come in here, Elise. You should see this show!Elise: What is itJay: It’s called “The Titanic of the Sky.” It’s about the Hindenburg, a great engineering feat.Elise: The Hindenburg …Jay: You know, that giant zeppelin that crashed in 1934. Thirty-five people died. Elise: Oh yeah, I remember now. It was flying from Germany to the United States. It crashed as it was landing.Jay: Right. It’s so funny looking, don’t you think It doesn’t look anything like the airplanes we have today.Elise: That’s true. Why would people ride in a zeppelin anyway It seems so dangerous. Jay: Well, some people called the Hindenburg “man’s greatest achievement in flight.” They thought it was safe, I guess.Elise: Who rode in it anywayJay: Mostly wealthy people. It accommodated between 30 and 40 passengers and crew. One person said it was like a “flying hotel.”Elise: It sounds pretty great.Jay: Yeah, and it was fast. That’s why people rode it. They wanted to get to their destination faster.Elise: Wh y didn’t they just take a jet planeJay: Elise! You know they didn’t have jets back then. Look, in 1934 it took five days to travel from Germany to the US by ship. The zeppelin could do it in half that time. It was speedy.Elise: Well, maybe I’ll sit down and watch a little bit. Maybe I’ll learn something …Audio Track 4-1-6/Audio Track 4-1-7/Audio Track 4-1-8Jack: I think we should buy a bigger car.

The buildings are made of glass, steel, and concrete. They were designed by an American architect, but he used a Malaysian style. They were finished in 1998, and they were the tallest buildings in the world at that time. Each tower has 88 floors, and is 452 meters high. I really like the Petronas Towers. They show both the modern and the traditional side of my country.Audio Track 4-1-10/Audio Track 4-1-11Modern buildings: We love them, we hate them.The world-famous Louvre Museum in Paris is almost 500 years old, and it faced a very modern problem: There simply wasn’t enough space for six million visitors each year. In 1989, American architect . Pei designed a striking glass pyramid in the building’s center to be a visitor’s entrance and shopping arcade. But he also started an angry debate. Some people felt his glass building was a piece of art, like the ones inside the museum. Others said it was just an ugly, modern mistake. Kyoto, Japan, is the country’s ancient capital, and the heart of its culture. Itsrailroad station was too small for the millions of visitors. In 1997, the city completed a new station in a huge shopping center, right in the oldest part of the city. Designed by Hiroshi Hara, the building also contains a hotel and department store. Before it was built, critics said that the high, wide, modern building would destroy the city’s traditional look. On the other hand, supporters said it would bring new life into the city center.Audio Track 4-1-12/Audio Track 4-1-13Interviewer: What do you think is the biggest problem facing our citiesErika: I think it’s overcrowding. Talk to anyone living in a major metropolitan area and they will say the same thing. There’s no space. Even the suburbs are getting crowded.Interviewer: Well, in some places there simply isn’t any land left for building, rightErika: Yes, that’s true, but you have to think creatively. You can’t give up so easily.Interviewer: Think creatively What do you suggestErika: What I’m saying is that we can build more structures underground. We can add parking lots, malls, hotels and even apartment buildings. There’s plenty of space.Interviewer: Isn’t it expensiveErika: Yes, it can be. In the past building underground has been very expensive. However, we have new technology that will bring the cost down. It involves using robots. You don’t have to pay robots a salary.Interviewer: Isn’t “building down” more dangerous than other kinds of constructionErika: Actually, I think it’s safer than building skyscrapers, for example. Remember, we already do it. We have subways, and underground shopping malls. I’mjust suggesting we invest in a variety of bigger projects and that we dig deeper. Interviewer: What would you say to people who doubt your ideaErika: I can understand their feelings. Whenever there’s a new idea, it can cause controversy. But “building down” is not some kind of impractical idea. It makes sense. There is so much space underground: it can accommodate a lot of traffic, storage, and people. With the new technology we have, we’d be crazy not to consider the idea —it’s the wave of the future.Audio Track 4-1-141. deep cave2. arid desert3. long mountain range4. active volcanoAudio Track 4-1-15a. narrow harborb. long, sunny beachc. busy vacationd. high cliffsSpeaking & CommunicationAudio Track 4-1-16/Audio Track 4-1-17Bart: So what exactly did you do over the summerGustav: We worked as volunteers at Glacier National Park.Bart: I’ve never been there. What’s it likeCarolina: It’s beautiful. There are mountains and lakes ... and, of course, glaciers!Bart: How was the jobGustav: We had to do a lot of physical work. It was kind of hard.Carolina: That’s true, but it was exciting, too! We actually saw bears!Bart: Wow! That does sound exciting. Maybe I should apply. I’ll need a job next summer.Carolina: Sorry, Bart, but you can’t apply to that program. It’s a special program for international students.Audio Track 4-1-18Conversation 1A: I’d like to live in a city apartment. It would be near public transportation as that would save a lot of time. I don’t want to waste time commuting several hours each day from home to university.B: That’s very nice, but I’d prefer to live in the suburbs. The prices there are lower and we would be able to afford a house with bigger bedrooms.A: It would be cheaper, but don’t you think the suburbs would be inconvenient B: Well, you have a point there, so we would need to get a car too. Conversation 2A: I’d prefer to live in the suburbs. We would enjoy the peace and quiet, away from all the city noise. Moreover, it would be a good environment for study.B: Even so, I think life in the suburbs would be boring. We’d have nothing to do on weekends.Audio Track 4-1-19I’d like to visit Angel Falls most because I have never seen a real waterfall. But then again, I’m a little afraid of heights and it is the world’s highest waterfall! The Andes is the place I would least like to go to because I don’t partic ularly like hiking or trekking.Audio Track 4-1-20I think the Channel Tunnel is the most amazing feat. It’s hard to imagine a train running under the sea, but this is a reality. I think this engineering masterpiece really shows what can be achieved when two countries work together. There is nowa high-speed rail service connecting the United Kingdom and France.Video CourseVideo Track 4-1-1Alejandra: One of the most beautiful natural wonders I’ve seen are the glaciers in the south of Argentina.Nick: The Matterhorn, which is a mountain in Switzerland, is one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen. My dad and I climbed about halfway, and once we got there it started snowing so we had to turn back.Catherine: I climbed up to Everest . Qomolangma) Base Camp. All of a sudden, you look up and there’s this huge mountain that everyone’s talked about, that everyone’s photographed, and you’ve seen what it’s like in pictures but you’ve never seen it in person.Kumiko: Mt. Fuji is really beautiful from far away. When you climb it, it’s just rocks and dirt … but it’s really beautiful from far away.Natalie: I went to Niagara Falls for a family reunion. It was one of the most memorable times of my life because I got to be around people who I love — my family. And it was also one of the most beautiful sites that I’ve ever seen.Video Track 4-1-2Natalie: I went to Niagara Falls for a family reunion. It was one of the most memorable times of my life because I got to be around people who I love — my family. And it was also one of the most beautiful sites that I’ve ever seen.Video Track 4-1-3Kevin: The most impressive man-made wonder that I have seen is the Great Wall of China. The Great Wall took several thousands of people to build, it stretches many, many miles throughoutChina, and it was made in a period where we didn’t have all the technological advancements … like cranes and lifts.Gian: Last year I was in San Francisco and I had a chance to drive across the Golden Gate Bridge.What an amazing feat of engineering! It gives you a chance to look through all of San Francisco and over San Francisco Bay and it’s just a wonderful chance to see the city.Woo Sung: I saw the Hoover Dam once and I didn’t like it very much. It was in the middle of the desert and it’s just very hot, and there wasn’t much activity going on … and it’s just a big concrete structure.Video Track 4-1-4Kevin: The most impressive man-made wonder that I have seen is the Great Wall of China.

Takeshi then talked about how much he admired the skyscrapers. Suddenly, Takeshi started taking pictures of the site, but Roberto couldn’t understand why because nothing had been built yet. Takeshi explained that he thought something famous might be there someday, like a fancy hotel where the rich and famous would stay, and he wanted to be the only one with pictures of it before it was built. But later, Takeshi felt very embarrassed when Roberto asked one of the construction workers what was being built on the site —and Takeshi learned it was to be a parking garage!。

You spent your weekend in an airplane flying around?J: Basically yes. I fly standby.W: Standby?J: Yes, as a standby passenger. I don’t have a reservation.

They lost my luggage and I didn't speak a word of English. I had to use my handsto explain myself. People understood what I meant and they helped me out.Catherine: My recent trip to Africa was one of the most amazing trips of my life, This was my secondtrip to Tanzania, Africa. We visited a lot of villages, some very remote that we had to travel by helicopter. In Tanzania, it's very different from America so there are no maps. So, even traveling in a helicopter, we didn't really know where we were going to go. We didn't reallyknow the village names, so we just kind of had no destination and we got in the helicopter andjust flew around. And if we saw some animals or some rooftops of hut houses, we said, "Let'sgo there" and we just kind of landed.Dennis:I have a lot of funny experiences on the airline as a flight attendant.

We really need more ways to get around. I’d like to ride my bicycle to work, but there is too much traffic on the streets. We need safer places for bicyclingand walking. Another problem is the parks. We have some nice parks, but we don’t take good care of them and they are often dirty. We need cleaner parks, where children can play and adults can relax. One more problem is nightlife. There’s nothing to do in the evening! We should build a big theater for plays and concerts.Audio track 3-2-8Take back your streetTwo neighbors meet on a city sidewalk. They talk about planting more flowers along their street, or asking the city council to add bike lanes to a busy road. In small but important ways, these people are changing the face of their cities.All around the world, people are speaking up and working hard to make their cities safer and more pleasant for pedestrians. Cities have painted crosswalks on their streets, made streets narrower, put in traffic lights and speed bumps, and made plans to help more kids walk or bike to school.Many people have learned from a man from Brisbane, Australia, named David Engwicht. His book Reclaiming Our Cities and Towns has a simple message. He says that in the past, streets belonged to everybody. Kids played there, and neighbors stopped there to talk.But now, streets are just for cars and trucks. People stay inside to get away from the noise and dangerous traffic, and we lose contact with our neighbors. Engwicht says that we should use streets for more than just transportation. People need to take back their streets.Engwicht travels around the world, helping people think differently about pedestrians, streets, and neighborhoods. Besides his books and articles, he gives many speeches. He has worked in neighborhoods from Honolulu to Scotland.While Engwicht was writing his book, he learned about how neighbors in the city Delft, in the Netherlands, stopped dangerous traffic on their street. They put old couches, tables, and planters in the streets. Cars could still pass, but they had to drive slowly. When the police arrived, they saw the value of these illegal actions to make the streets safer. Soon city officials started planning ways to make cars slow down, and"calm" the traffic.Engwicht says we should think about streeets as our "outdoor living room."Calming the traffic is just the beginning. In the future, streets will be safe places for childre again, and our neighborswill become our friends.Unit2, Lesson BVideo track 3-2-1Jennifer: Iwant my dream house to be by a lake with a big yard.
