Because of this, most people think that craft(手艺)no longer exists.One of the ways these people wrongly support their view is by pointing to 100 -year -old homes which are still solid, and arguing that it is the craftsmanship that is responsible for their durability(持久性). "Homes in those days were well -built, 〞they say. No doubt these homes were well -built, but what these people have done is mix up the quality of material used in the house with the quality of the craftsmanship.Homes today could be built to last just as long as those old homes if people were willing or able to pay the price. For example, more people can no longer afford solid oak stairways, although they were once fairly common in older homes. Nor can they afford the high labor cost ofemploying a carpenter to build the stairway. Yet if someone can pay the high cost, there are still plenty of carpenters around able to make those stairways. And not only would these carpenters know how to build them, they would probably do a better job than carpenters of old days.One thing the modern carpenter has which enables him to do a better job is much more advanced tools. Such tools as laser beams and power planes help them lay out a house better and make more precise cuts(精确切割)on the wood. Also, it is not uncommon any more to find carpenters with college degrees and carpenters with a solid knowledge of mathematics, which would enable them to deal with more difficult house designs.The problem of modern quality, then, really boils down to the problem of material, for the modern carpenter is just as able to produce craftsmanship as the carpenter of fifty years ago, but only if given proper material.【语篇概述】本文是议论文.文章对现代社会的工匠的手艺有没有消亡这一问题进行了讨论.最|后, 作者认为工匠的手艺不但没消亡, 反而增强了.1. What does the underlined word "they〞(Paragraph 2)refer to?A. Carpenters who are fond of oak stairways.B. Carpenters who have college degrees.C. People who think highly of carpenters of old days.D. People who think that modern material is of low quality.【解析】选C .词义猜想题.根据第二段最|后一句"毫无疑问, 这些家被建得很好, 但是这些人所做的是把用在房屋上的材料的质量与他们精湛的手艺结合起来了.〞这说明有此观点的人是赞扬古代工匠的人.2. Compared with the carpenters in the past, modern carpenters are__________.A. more successfulB. more learnedC. more imaginativeD. more hardworking【解析】选B .细节理解题.根据第三段最|后一句及第四段可知, 现代的工匠比古代的工匠更有学问.3. What does the third paragraph mainly discuss?A. People in the past preferred to use oak to build stairways.B. It is now expensive to employ a carpenter.C. Modern houses last as long as the old one.D. Good carpenters still exist in modern times.【解析】选D .段落大意题.根据第三段第|一句可知, 如果人们愿意付钱, 现代的工匠也能建造出和那些老房子持续得一样长久的房子.4. What would be the best title for the text?A. Is Craft Dead?B. Craft, Back to Life?C. History of CraftsmanshipD. Carpenters Today and Yesterday【解析】选A .标题归纳题.根据第|一段可知, 现代多数人认为随着科技的开展, 工匠的手艺不复存在了.下文就此问题展开讨论.经过分析, 作者认为现代工匠的手艺没有消亡, 而是更先进了.故用A作标题更能吸引读者.其余三项偏离了中|心或是平淡无奇.BA few years ago, a company called Space Marketing came up with a plan to send a mile -long advertisement into space. To advertising agencies(机构), it would have been "a dream come true〞. However, advertising standards agencies finally decided not to allow Space Marketing to go ahead with their plans and they were forced to give them up.Space may indeed be the final place for advertisers, because on Earth we are already surrounded by advertising wherever we are and whatever we are doing. Apart from the obvious adverts that we see every day on TV, and in newspapers and magazines, there is a whole "other world〞of advertising messages for our attention. There are ads that we see on the side of the bus we catch to work, for example. And what about the logos(商标)we see on the clothing of the people we walk past in the streets?Most of the time, we are probably not even aware of(意识到的)these less obvious advertising methods, but that doesn ,t mean thatthey don ,t work. Take "product placement〞for example. You are in a cinema, watching the latest Hollywood movie. Look carefully at the make of the car your favorite actor is driving. And what about his watch? Can you see what brand it is? Chances are, you can, and the company that owns the brand is likely to have paid thousands for it to appear in the film.So, whether Space Marketing finally succeeds in sending ads into space or not is perhaps less important than it might seem. This would not change a thing. Our everyday lives are already strongly influenced by advertising whether we realize it or not.【语篇概述】我们的生活中出现了大量的广告, 本文介绍了一家叫Space Marketing的公司提出把一个一英里长的广告送到太空的想法.5. What happened to the plan of sending an ad into space?A. It came to nothing.B. It was a dream come true.C. It had to wait a few years before it was carried out.D. It was supported by the advertising standards agencies.【解析】选A .细节理解题.根据第|一段最|后一句中they were forced to give them up. (他们被迫放弃.)可知这个方案没有被实施.6. How does the author explain the "other world〞of advertising messages?A. By showing research findings.B. By explaining research findings.C. By giving instructions.D. By using examples.【解析】选D .细节理解题.根据下文中There are ads that we see on the side of the bus we catch to work, for example. And what about the logos we see on the clothing of the people we walk past in the streets? 可看出作者是通过举例子来解释"other world〞.7. As a form of advertising, product placement__________.A. costs a littleB. doesn ,t workC. is less obvious than TV adsD. mainly appears in Hollywood movies【解析】选C .推理判断题.根据文章第三段中Most of the time, we are probably not even aware of these less obvious advertising methods, but that doesn ,t mean that they don ,t work. Take "product placement〞for example. 可知"product placement〞是不太明显的广告.8. What does the author suggest at the end of the text?A. We live in a world of advertising.B. We ,ve changed a lot because of advertising.C. Space Marketing leads in the advertising industry.D. Space ads will mark the beginning of a new world.【解析】选A .推理判断题.根据文章最|后一句Our everyday lives are already strongly influenced by advertising whether we realize it or not. 无论我们意识到与否, 我们的日常生活已经被广告深深地影响到了.故作者认为我们生活在一个充满广告的世|界.Ⅱ. 完形填空The name of the1artist Picasso is very famous in the West.

THE EARTH IS BECOMING WARMER-BUT DOES IT MATTER?During the 20th century the temperature of the earth rose about one degree Fahrenheit. That probably does not seem much to you or me, but it is a rapid increase when compared to other natural changes. So how has this come about and does it matter? Ea rth Care’s Sophie Armstrong explores these questions.There is no doubt that the earth is becoming warmer (see Graph 1) and that it is human activitythat has caused this global warming rather than a random but natural phenomenon.All scientists subscribe to the view that the increase in the earth's temperature is due to the burning of fossil fuels like coal, natural gas and oil to produce energy. Some byproducts of this process are called "greenhouse" gases, the most important one of which is carbon dioxide. Dr Janice Foster explains: "There is a natural phenomenon that scientists call the 'greenhouse effect'. This is when small amounts of gases in the atmosphere, like carbon dioxide, methane and water vapour, trap heat from the sun and therefore warm the earth. Without the 'greenhouse effect', the earth would be about thirty-three degrees Celsius cooler than it is. So, we need those gases. The problem begins when we add huge quantities of extra carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. It means that more heat energy tends to be trapped in the atmosphere causing the global temperature to go up."We know that the levels of carbon dioxide have increased greatly over the last 100 to 150 years. It was a scientist called Charles Keeling, who made accuratemeasurements of the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere from 1957 to 1997. He found that between these years the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere went up from around 315 parts to around 370 parts per million(see Graph 2).All scientists accept this data. They also agree that it is the burning of more and more fossilfuels that has resulted in this increase in carbon dioxide. So how high will the temperature increase go? Dr Janice Foster says that over the next 100 years the amount of warming could be as low as 1 to 1.5 degrees Celsius, but it could be as high as 5 degrees.However, the attitude of scientists towards this rise is completely different. On the one hand, Dr Foster thinks that the trend which increases the temperature by 5 degrees would be a catastrophe. She says, "We can't predict the climate well enough to know what to expect, but it could be very serious." Others who agree with her think there may be a rise of several metres in the sea level, or predict severe storms, floods, droughts, famines, the spread of diseases and the disappearance of species. On the other hand, there are those, like George Hambley, who are opposed to this view, believe that we should not worry about high levels of carbon dioxide in the air. They predict that any warming will be mild with few bad environmental consequences. In fact, Hambley states, "More carbon dioxide is actually a positive thing. It will make plants grow quicker; crops will produce more; it will encourage a greater range of animals - all of which will make life for human beings better."Greenhouse gases continue to build up in the atmosphere. Even if we start reducing the amount of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases, the climate is going to keep on warming for decades or centuries. No one knows the effects of global warming. Does that mean we should do nothing? Or, are the risks too great? WHAT CAN WE DO ABOUT GLOBAL WARMING?Dear Earth Care,I am doing a project on behalf of my school about global warming. Sometimes I feel that individuals can have little effect on such huge environmental problems. However, 1 still think people should advocate improvements in the way we use energy today. As I'm not sure where to start with my project, I would appreciate any suggestions you may have.Thank you!Ouyang GuangDear Ouyang Guang,There are many people who have a commitment like yours, but they do not believe they have the power to do anything to improve our environment. That is not true. Together, individuals can make a difference. We do not have to put up with pollution. The growth of the greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide in the air actually comes as a result of many things we do every day. Here are a few suggestions on how to reduce it. They should get you started with your project.1 We use a lot of energy in our houses. It is OK to leave an electrical appliance on so long as you are using it - if not, turn it off! Do not be casual about this. So if you are not using the lights, the TV, the computer, and so on, turn them off. If you are cold, put on more clothes instead of turning up the heat.2 Motor vehicles use a lot of energy- so walk or ride a bike if you can.3 Recycle cans, bottles, plastic bags and newspapers if circumstances allow you to. It takes a lot of energy to make things from new materials, so, if you can, buy things made from recycled materials.4 Get your parents to buy things that are economical with energy - this includes cars as well as smaller things like fridges and microwaves.5 Plant trees in your garden or your school yard, as they absorb carbon dioxide from the air and refresh your spirit when you look at them.6 Finally and most importantly, be an educator. Talk with your family and friends about global warming and tell them what you have learned.Remember - your contribution counts! Earth Care。
Unit4 写作课名师教学设计Module 6 Unit 4 Using Language--Writing教学设计1. 学情分析Learning situation:In BOOK6 UNIT4, although students have already learned some knowledge about global warming in the previous reading part, they still have some difficulties in expressing ideas on how to reduce global warming in their daily life. Besides, for the writing task, students have known something about how to write a letter of advice, but most of them still don’t know the structure of it clearly, which may cause some confusion in their writing. So they need more guidance and some proper help on how to give suggestions on such big a social problem--how to reduce global warming.2 重点难点Difficult points and important points:Students may have difficulty analyzing which key information should be included in the letter and how to make use of some good sentence-patterns of suggestions. So students may have difficulty using their own words for the output part.3 教学过程3.1 第一学时3.1.1教学目标Teaching goals:1. Language competences: Students will be able to(1)learn some new words in situations: global warming, carbon dioxide, the rise of the sea level, cause, make a difference, count.(2)learn the structure of a letter of advice.(3)learn how to express themselves by using proper sentence-patterns of suggestions.2. Learning competence:The class is based on the students-centered principle, so every student is encouraged to participate in all the steps of writing. The teacher is just a guide, who will adopt some skills to get students to think about one question in the whole class---how canwe write a letter of advice on a social problem well? After all these activities, students will be able to exchange their ideas and learn how to organize a letter of advice.3. Cognitive competence:Students will be able to think about the structure of this kind of letter critically and they will form a right attitude towards the problem of global warming, which will exert some positive effects in their daily life.4.1.2 学时重点与难点Difficult points and important points:Students may have difficulty in analyzing the key information before writing and failing to adopt some good ways to express their opinions.4.1.3 教学活动活动1【导入】Greetings&Lead inEnjoy a short video1. What is the video about? Global warming2. What are the main causes of global warming?It is human activities that have caused global warming, for example, human beings are putting too much carbon dioxide into the air and many people are still cutting down trees in the forests.As we have seen in this video, global warming has caused many disasters in the world. It has become so serious a problem that many people around the world are concerned about it. Are you concerned about it? What can we do to help? We may do some small things to call on more people to take action, for example, we can finish a task like this.【设计说明】: 在Greetings的环节明确本节课教学目标,本节课我们要学习写一封信。
