The mystery of why he failed to find it haunted him and filled him with sadness.Wherever he went-to Cuba, Puerto Rico, Jamaica, South Africa, Panama, down the coast of Central America-it was always the same story. Instead of golden palaces, there were grass huts and palm-leaf tents. Instead of silk-robed merchant princes, he found〝Indians〞who did not even have shirts on their backs.At times Clumbus became reconciled to the truth that his new land was not China, not Japan, not the spice Islands. He seemed to accept it as a part of the earth that the geographers of Europe had never heard of before. It was another world-and he called it exactly that-but Columbus also insisted until he died that the land he had reached was an unknown part of Asia.Precis writingSimone’s wedding would be the most lavish event since she was born, although her stepmother Alice often lectured her about being financially responsible. When she was preparing for her wedding, Alice always tried to stop her from spending too much money. But Simone firmly believed that her father would pay for all the costs due to his deep love for her. That being so, Simone did not take Alice’s advice and w as rude to her. Unfortunately, a special delivery arrived not long after. It was a letter from Alice. In the letter, Alice told Simone that she had bought her father’s bankr upt company when she fell in love with him. Now, however, her father was both fired and divorced. As a result, Simone was broke. Even worse, her wedding was cancelled because her fiance decided not to marry her after knowing the fact.

Money, on the other hand, is the oil that greases the wheel. Money means bussiness and it’s unsually the last topic you want to discuss when you announce your engagement.Beyond the expenses that you will incur with your wedding and honeymoon, money may provide most of the contention with your marriage. While discussions about money might seem unromantic at this moment, it’s best to talk about the future now before that marriage makes you legally bound to each other. Once you’ve said,〝I do,〞some things can’t be undone.ⅢListening comprehension1.C2.A3.C4.B5.BThe Strange Story of Lady Be GoodIt was a hot afternoon in September 1963. A small party of engineers in a truck were exploring, looking for oil in the southeastern desert of Libya. They were about four hundred miles south of the Libyan coast. The desert was hot, dry, flat and empty. The air was very clear.The men suddenly noticed a strange shape on the horizon, far away. It was a mirage, they thought. Heat and light often played tricks on their eyes. The shape looked rather like an aeroplane on the ground. But the nearest landing ground, they knew, was at their own camp, a hundred and twenty miles to the north. As they drove slowly towards it, the shape grew clearer. It really did look like an aeroplane and seemed less than twenty miles away.Two hours later the party stood beside a wartime bomber. Her name, Lady Be Good, was painted in white letters below the cockpit. She was shining in the evening sunlight, and in some ways she looked almost new.The bomber had lost her wheels, and her propellers were bent. She lay flat on the sand, but her body and wings were undamaged. The men opened a door — it opened easily — and went inside. The plane was shining inside, too. Thecontrols, the radio, the instruments — all seemed perfect. In the small kitchen there were biscuits, tins of soup, and even some water in an airtight tank. Maps were lying on a table nearby. There were instructions to the crew and several radio reports, with dates. The dates were all in 1942.The visitors understood the tragedy of Lady Be Good. She had lost her way home, one night in 1942. She used up all her petrol and had come down in the desert. And there she had stayed for twenty-one years.She is still there. The dry, hot winds keep her clean. No rain ever falls on her in that desert. She may still be bright and shining in a hundred years’ time.But what happened to her crew? The bones of five men were later found between thirty and sixty miles north of the bomber. The remains, including the remains of four parachutes, were widely separated. The men’s names were written on small metal plates that hung down from the neck-bones.The story was clear. In case of a bad landing, the pilot had ordered his crew to jump by parachute. He himself had remained at the controls. The men had begun to walk to the north. But the desert had very quickly brought death to all of them.ⅣTranslationA.

Uint1The most important day I remember in all my life is the one on which my teacher, Anne Sullivan, came to me. It was the third of March,1887, three months before I was seven years old. On the afternoon of that eventful day, I stood on the porch, dumb, expectant, I guessed from my mother’s signs and from the hurrying in the house that something unusual was about to happen, so I went to the door and waited on the steps. Hanging down from the porch was sweet-smelling honeysuckle. My fingers lightly touched the familiar leaves and the blossoms which had just come forth to greet the sweet southern spring I did not know what surprise the future held for me.I felt approaching footsteps, I stretched out my hand as I supposed to my mother. Someone took it, and I was caught up and held close in the arms of her who had come to help me discover all things to me, and, more than anything else, to love me.Unit 2It seems that marriage and money don’t mix, because marriage is a sexy rose-colored event that seems as wonderful as a cake without calories. Money, on the other hand, is the oil that greases the wheel. Money means business and it’s usually the last topic you want to discuss when you announce your engagement.Beyond the expenses that you’ll incur with your wedding and honeymoon, money may provide most of the contention within your marriage. While discussions about money might seem unromantic at this moment, it’s best to talk about the future now before that marriage makes you legally bound to each other. Once you’ve said, “I do,” some things can’t be undone.Unit 3The Globe Theater is a playhouse built just outside London in 1599. It is the most famous theater in history: on its stage Shakespeare’s greatest plays were first performed. Big enough to hold about 2,500 people, the Globe had three levels of galleries surrounding an unroofed yard. Extending from one side of the yard to the center was an open stage. From the stage floor rose two posts to support an overhanging canopy known as the ‘heavens’. The Globe was built in London by the Burbage brothers in 1599. At the same time, wishing to bind the Lord Chamberlain’s company closely to the new playhouse, they planned a novel partnership in which the brothers divided ownership of the Globe among themselves and five of the actors in the company, one of whom was Shakespeare. After 1609, when the company opened a second theater, the Globe became less important. On June 29, 1613, during a performance of Shakespeare’s King Henry the Eighth, fire destroyed theGlobe. It was rebuilt within a year but was destroyed forever by the Puritans in 1644.Unit 4Throughout the long period, the French showed noticeably more enthusiasm for a Channel tunnel than the British. This may seem curious, seeing that France already has many land frontiers, whereas for Britain a tunnel would be its first fixed link with the Continent, and thus more valuable. But the British were held back by their insularity, and especially by fears that an invader might be able to make use of the scheme. Happily, all that is past. Today Britain’s politicians and business circles have shown themselves as eager as the French.Those who take a wider and longer-term view believe that these possible drawbacks for Britain will be far outweighed by the advantages. Passengers by express train will be able to do the journey at least an hour faster than by air, city center to city center, and without any tedious waits at airports. Also the fares will be cheaper. So the tunnel will probably stimulate a vast increase in tourism and business travel between London and Paris.Unit 5Man has a big brain. He can think, learn, and speak. Scientists used tothink that humans were different from animals because they can think and learn. They know now that animals can learn--dogs, rats, birds and even worms can learn. Scientists are now beginning to understand that humans are different from animals because they can speak. Animals cannot speak. They make noises when they are afraid, or angry, or unhappy. Apes are our nearest cousins. They can understand some things more quickly than human beings, and one or two have learned a few words, but they are still different from us. They cannot join words or make sentences. They cannot think like us because they have no language, as we mean it. They can never think about the past or the future. Language is a wonderful thing. Man has been able to develop civilization largely because he has language. Every child can speak his own language very well when he is four or five--but no animal learns to speak. How do children learn? Scientists do not really know. What happens when we speak? Scientists don’t know. They only know that man can speak because he has a big brain.Unit 5Many students who call themselves bad readers nevertheless do read some things successfully. They may read novels or they may read the sports page every day. But a textbook is a different matter. A textbook gives them a lot of troubles. Why is that? One reason is lack of interest. Another is that they are often unfamiliar with the subject about whichthey are reading. But a third reason is that they try to read a textbook as if it were a novel or a sports story or a problem to be solved by Ann landers. They respond to the textbook inappropriately.How you read something depends on the author’s purpose in writing. There are basically four purposes for writing. Some authors write to tell a story; others write to create an image in your mind; some authors write to inform or to teach; and some still others write to convince you of a particular viewpoint. Each of these four purposes requires a different response as you read. If you respond differently to different types of writing, you will find that your reading will be much easier.。

FIt’s a job that anyone who thinks he is qualified can apply for.6. TGuided writing ( P5 )I love travelling by train. Fast expresses, slow local trains which stop at every station, suburban trains taking businessmen to their offices and home again; I enjoy them all. It must be the element of romance that attracts me. There is no romance on motorway, which is a box of metal and rubber on a strip of concrete, or in flying through the air in a pressurized tube from one identical plastic and glass airport to another. But trains are different. On a train, you can walk around, look at the scenery, observe your fellow passengers; whereas in a plane all you can see are the clouds and the back of other people’s heads. And then there are the stations. Some, I’m afraid, have become too like airport; others, fortunately, are old and dirty, full of unexpected details and with their own individual peculiarities. Traveling by train remains an adventure, as you try to interpret the timetable, persuade the booking office clerk to sell you a ticket and understand the incomprehensible messages coming over the loudspeaker system. Then there is that delightful uncertainty as you wonder whether you are on the right train, or the right part of the train. There’s nothing like it.Precis writing ( P7 )I applied for my first job before I entered university because I was short of money. The school where I applied for a job was ten miles away from where I lived and I was not sure if I could get the job. However, after a terrible journey I was so depressed that I no longer felt nervous. The Victorian schoolhouses stood amid fumes and dust main road. The headmaster was not at all scholarly, neither was the insideof the house academic looking. By and by I discovered that the headmaster and I had very little in common. He wanted me to teach twenty-four boys from seven to thirteen who, were to be split up into three levels. I had to teach everything including the subjects I abhorred (憎恶). Furthermore, I had to work on Saturdays too. The pay was low. To top it all, I had to work under a woman, the headmaster’s wife, who was the real manager of the school.Paragraph Writing( 略)Letter Writing (略)Comprehensive Exercises ( P9 )1.

Dictation ( P9 )The most important day I remember in all my life is the one on which my teacher, Anne Sullivan, came to me. It was the third of March, 1887, three months before I was seven years old. On the afternoon of that eventful day, I stood on the porch, dumb, expectant, I guessed from my mother’s signs and from the hurrying in the house that something unusual was about to happen, so I went to the door and waited on the steps. Hanging down from the porch was sweet-smelling honeysuckle. My fingers lightly touched the familiar leaves and blossoms which had just come forth to greet the sweet southern spring. I did not know what surprise the future held for me.I felt approaching footsteps. I stretched out my hand as I supposed to my mother. Someone took it, and I was caught up and held close in the arms of her who had come to help me discover all things to me, and, more than anything thing else, to love me.3.
