The process can be of almost any kind, from manufacturing a tyre to creating an advertisement. Therefore, learning how to describe and explain a process in English is important. It’s important for teachers, engineers and people who provide customer’s suppor t. one process that we are all familiar with is our body’s circulatory system. This system provides oxygenated blood throughout the body and eliminates carbon dioxide which is a waste product. If something goes wrong with this system, we need to repair it quickly, or we die. So it’s important to understand it and keep it functioning properly.First, the most important requirement for the system to work is a supply of air. Without fresh air with sufficient oxygen, the process won’t keep our healthy and alive. So the process begins by breathing in air which happens with long expand and drown in air. Once inside the lungs, oxygen in the air is exchanged for carbon dioxide in the blood. This exchange happens when blood cells release carbon dioxide and absorb oxygen. This blood is now oxygenated blood which means it carries oxygen. To summarize, the process begins by inhaling air and oxygenating the blood. The oxygenated blood in lungs then flow back to the heart. The C O 2 which came from the blood is exhaled and the next circle begins.Oxygenated blood in the lung flow in the heart. The blood which enters in a loop from the heart, carried carbon dioxide. Once the dioxide exchanged for the oxygen, the blood continues through the loop and exist into the heart. The oxygenated blood is then pumped to the rest of the body. As you can see, everything depends on the flow of blood to and from the heart. So how that the heart does this. First, the heart, which is a muscle has 4 chambers. From one chamber, blood is pumped to the lung. This is the blood that carry carbon dioxide. When oxygenated blood from the lungs comes back to the heart, it enters to another chamber. This chamber is called the left Atrium(左心房). From the left Atrium, the oxygenated blood is pumped to another chamber, the left Ventricle(左心室). The left ventricle then pumps the blood into the aorta(主动脉) which is the largest artery in the body. From the aorta, the oxygenated blood passes through a network of smaller arteries throughout the entire body, including the brain. Blood returns to the heart through a system of veins and enters the upper right chamber, the right atrium.Now that we understand a little about the circulatory system, we can add what we need to operate. Of course, it can’t operate without energy. This energy is supplied by another system, digestive system, which gets energy from food. And of course, this system need to be supported and controlled. Our skeletal system provide support and our muscular system provide control and movement. Wit hout support and movement, we couldn’t get the food for energy. Only plants can do this, because they had a completely different system, which gets energy directly from the sun.To summarize, human’s body is like a huge, complex factory. The language we use to describe how it functions, is the same language we use to describe almost any industrial process. The vocabulary is different, but the processes, flows and logically relationships are almost identical. Think of some familiar process in your life for job, and see if you can describe and explain it in EnglishThe process begins by inhaling air and oxygenating the blood.L5 Unit 3-2 vocabularyMaintain, to preserve or keep things as they are. Our quality is excellent, so your job is to main our high standards and improve it as you can. This historic build is very old and need to maintain. Disrupt, to cause disordered or confusion.

The police had to release him because they couldn’t prove that he com mitted a crime. The best way to prove something can be done is to do it.Exchange, to swap or change one thing for another. When we buy something, we exchange money for the product. In human body, oxygen is exchanged for C O2 in the lungs. Cooperate, to work together or collaborate.

Some countries have smaller economies, but the majority of their citizens are not poor. So the size of a country economy isn’t the only factor that determines how wealthy the citizens are. The sides of its population is also an important factor. Another factor how a country’s wealth is distributed between the rich and the poor.Let’s look at some examples. This chart shows the world 5 largest economies in 2015. It ranks the countries by the gross domestic product, or GDP. The GDP is one way of measuring the size of an economy. It’s the total value of goods and services produced in a country thin a year. As you can see, according to this chart, the US and China had the largest economies.According the chart, India had the third largest economy in the world. Its economy was bigger than Japan’s. the average living conditions in Japan is much higher than in India. One reason for this is the difference in population. India has a much larger population, so its wealth is distributed among a larger number of people. You can find this information by checking a country per capita. Per capita means per person. If two countries have the same GDP but one country has half the number of people, its GDP per capita is twice large.Another important factor is how the wealth of a country is shared. In some countries, much of the wealth is concentrated in just a few people. For example, in the US, just 5% of the population had more than 70% of the wealth. This shows that many US citizens are not wealthy despite the size of their economy. In fact, the wealth share held by the wealthy of 10% was more than 10 times bigger than the rest of population.As we have seen, much of the wealth of the US is concentrated in just a few people. 10% of its population had an estimate 75% of the wealth in 2015. In this chart, we see some comparison with other countries. In contrast to the US, 10% of the total Japan population has less than half of the total wealth. In china, in 2014, the estimated share of top 10% is 64%, but this number is rising. Russia had the highest concentration of wealth at over 80%. India, which has one of largest economies, has the largest share of the world’s poorest people. Its richest 10% have 370 times the share of wealth than its poorest 10%. A major challenge for a government is to improve the living conditions of its citizens. As we have seen, grow in the economy isn’t enough. Population growth and distribution of wealth are also important factors. Improving education and developing job skills can help people move up in an economy. With better education and training, the poor can increase their ability to get better job and rise their income. However, taxes are needed to pay social services, including health and education. Some countries tax the rich at high rate than poor. However, if taxes are too high, it can discourage investment and risk taking. This is because investors won’t take risks unless the rewards are high. So as you see, these a re complex issues.L5 Unit 3-3 vocabularySilly, foolish or stupid or ridiculous, the opposite of serious. He is being silly, so we should just ignore him. That’s a silly idea so I don’t think she means what she says.Amazing, to be incredible, or so good as to be hard to believe, the opposite of ordinary.

It’s crucial that we get them sign the contract by the end of the week. Getting data is crucial for our success. Impressive, to stand out and be unforgettable in a good way. his representation is so impressive that we decided to hire him right away.

He isn’t being realistic when he expects to charge such high prices for his products. Sincere, to be honest or be trustworthy. I think she was being sincere, so I think we can trust her. Sometimes it’s very difficult to know if someone is being sincere or is just a good liar.Naïve, overly simple or lacking experience.

He ended up losing his entire investment.What happened thenHis wife divorced him and took most of his assets with her. So he has to work again. So even smart people can be fooled.Well, I’m in no hurry. So I’ll be careful. I think the first thing I’ll do is to buy a nice house and help my parents. They’ve worked har d all their lives but are still barely able to survive on what they have.That sounds like a good plan. Whatever you do don’t let this go to your head. Try not to lose who you are.Don’t worry, I won’t. I know what you mean.L5 Unit 3-4 ListeningThere are several fundamental forces that hold our universe together. One of these, of course is gravity, the force between objects that have mass. Another important force is the electromagnetic force. The electromagnetic force is responsible for the chemical reactions. Without it, there would be no atoms and molecules. Up until a couple of hundred years ago, very little have known about this force. Learning about the electromagnetic force and how to use it was a major step forward. It revolutionized communication, transportation and manufacturing. Imagine what life would be like without electricity. The electromagnetic force has two parts, the electrical force and magnetic force. The electrical force is the force between an electrical charge article such as electron and proton(质子). Electric charges attract or repel each other with a force that depends on the distance between them. The magnetic force is the force between magnetic poles such as the north and south pole. In fact, the earth is like a large bar magnet with a north and south pole. Many animals use the earth’s magnetic field to navigate during their migrations. We can also see this magnetic field when we use a compass.Why does the earth have a magnetic field Many scientists believe that the earth’s m agnetic field is due to the earth rotation. Deep inside the earth is solid iron core surrounded by a liquid metal outer core. The moving electric currents inside this liquid metal create a magnetic field. The earth magnetic field is important because it protects us from the solar wind. The solar wind is a current of charge particles coming at us from the sun. when the solar wind nears the earth, the earth’s magnetic field deflects it away. This protects the earth from the radiation(辐射), which can be dangerous to life. It also protects the satellite that we use for communication.Scientists now believe that the earth’s magnetic field is about to reverse. This is called the magnetic field reversal. Every 200,000 to 300,000 years, the earth magnetic field reverses. In other words, the north and the south magnetic pole switch places. This has happened many times in earth’s history, but it has been happening more lately. Recent research provides evidence that there have been 5 magnetic reversals during the past 500,000 years. The most recent event happened approximately 41,000 years ago. Recent studies have found that the earth magnetic field has weakened about 5% per decade. As its current rate, the next reversal could happen within the next century.Some people also worry about the effects of the magnetic field reverse. They think there is a possibility that it could cause many problems. For example, without magnetic field, communications can be disrupted. Birds and other forms of lives could become confused and get lost. Another effect will the increase in some forms of cancer especially skin cancer. This will be because of the increase in the amount of radiation absorbed by our bodies. The possibility that a field reversal will be an extinction even is very low. There is very little historic evidence to show that previous reversals have caused extinctions. Humans have been on earth for million years, during which there have many reversals. Therefore, scientists believe any changes would be temporary.Another theory is that the earth outer layer could rotate around the outer liquid mental core that make out of the earth. So in the next reversal, continent could ship positions from north to south. Imagine the effect happened, Australia would be in the northern hemisphere. With so many theories, how can we know what to believe This is important because some of them require us toact well in advance. Otherwise, it will be too late to prevent the catastrophe. This underlines the importance of getting reliable information backed by strong evidence.L5 Unit 3-4 vocabularyResume, to continue or start again after a pause. After a short interruption, our work resumed and we worked for another hour. Work on the project resumed once we passed the safety inspection(检验; 检查).Interrupt, to stop something in progress. I hate to be interrupted when I’m working, but something it’s necessary. It’s difficult to have a conversation with her because she always interrupts.Reconsider, to reassert or think again about changing something. I was planning to vote against him, but after hearing him speak, I’m going to reconsider. I didn’t want to hire her at first but then I reconsidered and offered her a job.Conclude, to reach a decision, to end something or summarize the main point. To conclude my presentation, here is a summary of my recommendations(建议). After hearing the arguments for and against the project, we have reached a conclusion.Anticipate, to think in advance, to predict what’s ahead. I won the game because it was ea sy to anticipate my opponent’s next move. He tried to anticipate what we are going to do, but he was completely wrong, so he lost.Permanent, to be fixed or unchanging, the opposite of temporary. He plans to stay there permanently. He had decided to become a permanent resident of China.Temporary, only lasting for a short time, the opposite of permanent. We can only offer him a temporary position in the company. This is the kind of job he wants but it’s ok ay as something temporary until he can find something better.Definite, well define, precise, certain, unchanging. We can’t begin the project unless you give us a more definite schedule. We can’t give you a definite answer until we get more information. Obvious, easy to see, stand out. Of the job candidates we interviewed, he was the obvious choice. It’s obvious that he can’t afford to buy that house.Trivial, of little or no importance, insignificant. It’s a trivial detail, so there is no need to worry about it. those problems are not trivial so we need to find a solution.We don’t know their exact location, but they are definitely in this general area.After hearing arguments for and against the project, we have reached a conclusionWe have concluded that there are too many risks, so we’re going canc el the project.I’ve considered and reconsidered your request, but the answer is still no.From her facial expression, it was obvious that she really disliked him.We can’t make a reservation for your flight until you give us a definite return date.Humans lived as nomads(游牧生活) until they decided to settle down and permanent communities.We resumed watching the movie as soon as the wireless connection restored.The conclusion is often the most important part of a presentation.We don’t know the exact location but they are definitely in this general area.I’ve considered and reconsidered your request, but the answer is still no.After hearing arguments for and against the project, we have reached a conclusion.In conclusion, I think this new pesticide isn’t safe for the environment.。

The process can be of almost any kind, from manufacturing a tyre to creating an advertisement. Therefore, learning how to describe and explain a process in English is im portant. It’s important for teachers, engineers and people who provide customer’s support. one process that we are all familiar with is our body’s circulatory system. This system provides oxygenated blood throughout the body and eliminates carbon dioxide which is a waste product. If something goes wrong with this system, we need to repair it quickly, or we die. So it’s important to understand it and keep it functioning properly.First, the most important requirement for the system to work is a supply of air. Withoutfresh air with sufficient oxygen, the process won’t keep our healthy and alive. So the process begins by breathing in air which happens with long expand and drown in air. Once inside the lungs, oxygen in the air is exchanged for carbon dioxide in the blood. This exchange happens when blood cells release carbon dioxide and absorb oxygen. This blood is now oxygenated blood which means it carries oxygen. To summarize, the process begins by inhaling air and oxygenating the blood. The oxygenated blood in lungs then flow back to the heart. The C O 2 which came from the blood is exhaled and the next circle begins. Oxygenated blood in the lung flow in the heart. The blood which enters in a loop from the heart, carried carbon dioxide. Once the dioxide exchanged for the oxygen, the blood continues through the loop and exist into the heart. The oxygenated blood is then pumped to the rest of the body.As you can see, everything depends on the flow of blood to and from the heart. So how that the heart does this. First, the heart, which is a muscle has 4 chambers. From one chamber, blood is pumped to the lung. This is the blood that carry carbon dioxide. When oxygenated blood from the lungs comes back to the heart, it enters to another chamber. This chamber is called the left Atrium(左心房). From the left Atrium, the oxygenated blood is pumped to another chamber, the left Ventricle(左心室). The left ventricle then pumps the blood into the aorta(主动脉) which is the largest artery in the body. From the aorta, the oxygenated blood passes through a network of smaller arteries throughout the entire body, including the brain. Blood returns to the heart through a system of veins and enters the upper right chamber, the right atrium.Now that we understand a little about the circulatory system, we can add what we needto operate. Of course, it can’t operate without energy. This energy is supplied by another system, digestive system, which gets energy from food. And of course, this system need to be supported and controlled. Our skeletal system provide support and our muscular system provide control and movement. Without support and movement, we couldn’t get the food for energy. Only plants can do this, because they had a completely different system, which gets energy directly from the sun.To summarize, human’s body is like a huge, complex factory. The language we use to describe how it functions, is the same language we use to describe almost any industrial process. The vocabulary is different, but the processes, flows and logically relationships are almost identical. Think of some familiar process in your life for job, and see if you can describe and explain it in EnglishThe process begins by inhaling air and oxygenating the blood.L5 Unit 3-2 vocabularyMaintain, to preserve or keep things as they are.

Some countries have smaller economies, but the majority of their citizens are not poor. So the size of a country economy isn’t the only factor that determine s how wealthy the citizens are. The sides of its population is also an important factor. Another factor how a country’s wealth is distributed between the rich and the poor. Let’s look at some examples. This chart shows the world 5 largest economies in 2015. It ranks the countries by the gross domestic product, or GDP. The GDP is one way of measuring the size of an economy. It’s the total value of goods and services produced in a country thin a year. As you can see, according to this chart, the US and China hadthe largest economies.According the chart, India had the third largest economy in the world. Its economy was bigger than Japan’s. the average living conditions in Japan is much higher than in India. One reason for this is the difference in population. India has a much larger population, so its wealth is distributed among a larger number of people. You can find this information by checking a country per capita. Per capita means per person. If two countries have the same GDP but one country has half the number of people, its GDP per capita is twice large.Another important factor is how the wealth of a country is shared. In some countries, much of the wealth is concentrated in just a few people. For example, in the US, just 5% of the population had more than 70% of the wealth. This shows that many US citizens are not wealthy despite the size of their economy. In fact, the wealth share held by the wealthy of10% was more than 10 times bigger than the rest of population.As we have seen, much of the wealth of the US is concentrated in just a few people. 10% of its population had an estimate 75% of the wealth in 2015. In this chart, we see some comparison with other countries. In contrast to the US, 10% of the total Japan population has less than half of the total wealth. In china, in 2014, the estimated share of top 10% is 64%, but this number is rising. Russia had the highest concentration of wealth at over 80%. India, which has one of largest economies, has the largest share of the world’s poorest people. Its richest 10% have 370 times the share of wealth than its poorest 10%. A major challenge for a government is to improve the living conditions of its citizens. As we have seen, grow in the economy isn’t enough. Population growth and distribution of wealth are also important factors. Improving education and developing job skills can helppeople move up in an economy. With better education and training, the poor can increase their ability to get better job and rise their income. However, taxes are needed to pay social services, including health and education. Some countries tax the rich at high rate than poor. However, if taxes are too high, it can discourage investment and risk taking. This is because investors won’t take risks unless the rewards are high. So as you see, these are complex issues.L5 Unit 3-3 vocabularySilly, foolish or stupid or ridiculous, the opposite of serious.

So even smart people can be fooled.Well, I’m in no hurry. So I’ll be careful. I think the first thing I’ll do is to buy a nice hou se and help my parents. They’ve worked hard all their lives but are still barely able to survive on what they have.That sounds like a good plan. Whatever you do don’t let this go to your head. Try not to lose who you are.Don’t worry, I won’t. I know what you mean.L5 Unit 3-4 ListeningThere are several fundamental forces that hold our universe together. One of these, of course is gravity, the force between objects that have mass. Another important force is the electromagnetic force. The electromagnetic force is responsible for the chemical reactions. Without it, there would be no atoms and molecules. Up until a couple of hundred years ago, very little have known about this force. Learning about the electromagnetic force and how to use it was a major step forward. It revolutionized communication, transportation and manufacturing. Imagine what life would be like without electricity. The electromagnetic force has two parts, the electrical force and magnetic force. The electrical force is the force between an electrical charge article such as electron and proton(质子). Electriccharges attract or repel each other with a force that depends on the distance between them. The magnetic force is the force between magnetic poles such as the north and south pole. In fact, the earth is like a large bar magnet with a north and south pole. Many animals use the earth’s magnetic field to navigate during their migrations. We can also see this magnetic field when we use a compass.Why does the earth have a magnetic field? Many scientists believe that the earth’s magnetic field is due to the earth rotation. Deep inside the earth is solid iron core surrounded by a liquid metal outer core. The moving electric currents inside this liquid metal create a magnetic field. The earth magnetic field is important because it protects us from the solar wind. The solar wind is a current of charge particles coming at us from the sun. when the solar wind nears the earth, the earth’s magnetic field deflects itaway. This protects the earth from the radiation(辐射), which can be dangerous to life. It also protects the satellite that we use for communication.Scientists now believe that the earth’s magnetic field is about to reverse. This is called the magnetic field reversal. Every 200,000 to 300,000 years, the earth magnetic field reverses. In other words, the north and the south magnetic pole switch places. This has happened many times in earth’s history, but it has been happening more lately. Recent research provides evidence that there have been 5 magnetic reversals during the past 500,000 years. The most recent event happened approximately 41,000 years ago. Recent studies have found that the earth magnetic field has weakened about 5% per decade. As its current rate, the next reversal could happen within the next century.Some people also worry about the effects of the magnetic field reverse. They think there isa possibility that it could cause many problems. For example, without magnetic field, communications can be disrupted. Birds and other forms of lives could become confused and get lost. Another effect will the increase in some forms of cancer especially skin cancer. This will be because of the increase in the amount of radiation absorbed by our bodies. The possibility that a field reversal will be an extinction even is very low. There is very little historic evidence to show that previous reversals have caused extinctions. Humans have been on earth for million years, during which there have many reversals. Therefore, scientists believe any changes would be temporary.Another theory is that the earth outer layer could rotate around the outer liquid mental core that make out of the earth. So in the next reversal, continent could ship positions from north to south. Imagine the effect happened, Australia would be in the northernhemisphere. With so many theories, how can we know what to believe? This is important because some of them require us to act well in advance. Otherwise, it will be too late to prevent the catastrophe. This underlines the importance of getting reliable information backed by strong evidence.L5 Unit 3-4 vocabularyResume, to continue or start again after a pause. After a short interruption, our work resumed and we worked for another hour. Work on the project resumed once we passed the safety inspection(检验; 检查).Interrupt, to stop something in progress.

To conclude my presentation, here is a summaryof my recommendations(建议). After hearing the arguments for and against the project, we have reached a conclusion.Anticipate, to think in advance, to predict what’s ahead.

It is a beautiful, rotating sphere. The side facing the sun is in daylight. The side facing away from the sun is in darkness. For example, when it’s daytime in US, it nighttime in China. In fact, there’s 12-hour time difference between Bost on and Shanghai. When it’s midnight in Shanghai, it’s noon in Boston. The earth rotates from west to east. To know which direction is west or east, watch the sun.The sun travels through the sky from east to west. The sun comes up in the east and goes down in the west. Again, this is because the earth rotates. It takes 24 hours for the earth to make a complete rotation. And that is the length of one day.Because of the earth’s rotation, the earth is divided into time zones. Some countries, such as US, has several time zones. When it’s 10 am in New York, it’s 7 am in San Francisco. Europe and the US are separated by several time zones. When it’s 5 pm in Paris, it’s 11 am in Boston. So there is a 6 hours different between Paris and Boston. One large country, China, has just one timezone for the whole country. As a result, at the same time, some parts of the country can be dark and other parts can be light.As you travel around the earth, the time changes. The time of day depends on your location on the planet. When you travel east or west, you may cross several time zones. For example, if you travel from Beijing to Los Angeles, you may cross 8 time zones. That means, when it’s noon on Sunday in China, it 8 pm on Saturday in Los Angeles. For travelers, this means it can be very difficult to sleep after a long flight. The clock may say 8 pm, but for your body, it’s noon. This is called jet lag.Kim is a popular Korean actress.

They wanted the meals that were healthy but easy to prepare. There were very few frozen meals available at the time and none of them were vegetarian or organic. There was a gap in the market. Ed and Emma immediately saw the opportunity and launched their first product. It was a frozen pasta meal(速冻面食餐) with a mix of vegetable and delicious cream sauce. The market responded with enthusiastic and profitable beyond expectation. Their product was an instant success. To their surprise, it was soon being eaten by millions of people, not only for vegetarians who were interested in organic foods. It was being brought because it was easy to prepare and it tasted good. And of course, it was healthy.Other products followed in rapid succession. As a result, at the end of 5 years, the company was producing over 100 frozen meals. Since then, they have increased thenumber of meals over 150, including pizzas, sandwiches and snacks. Their foods are carried by natural food stores and supermarkets throughout North America. Although they had expanded their production facilities and increased the number of employees, they had remained the previous company. They enjoyed the fact that the they are family-owned business, sensitive to the needs of their customers. They don’t have to worry about pl easing shareholders. Rather than paying dividend to the shareholders, Emma’s best has a perfect sharing plan to benefits its employees. Bonuses and salary increases keep employees happy and motivate them to work hard. As a result, employer turnover is low and the company has been recognized as one of the best companies to work for. In addition, Emma’s best supports local charities, especially those that provide health foods to children from low-income families. Given its success, the company feels an obligation to contribute to society. In spite of the fact that other company now produce similar products, Emma’s best remain s the market leader. Their totally commitment to quality has made the difference and they are proud of their accomplishments.L5 Unit 1-3 vocabularyPeople are often nervous or apprehensive before performing in front of an audience.

Mysteries are things we don’t understand, such as how the Egyptian pyramids were built. In fact, we are surrounded by mysteries. What we know about the world, seems like very little. Scientists tell us that what we see in the universe is only a small part of what is there. The rest is invisible, including dark matter and dark energy.These two unknowns made up around 95% of the universe. Evidence for their existence comes from their effects on what we can observe, such as the motion and positions of the distant galaxies.Yet thought we know very little, we are able to build airplanes and communicate with smartphones. In some ways, we humans are very smart or at least we think we are. We still need to face big issues, like climate change and that’s going to be a huge challenge. The challenge fo r humans will be our abilities to adapt to our changing environment.What about other form of life? How do they adapt? Seasonal variations, for example, can be one of the greatest challenges for animals to overcome. Overcoming such challenges will be a great achievement but hardly easy. Some birds migrate thousands of kilometers each year, to deal with seasonal changes. These migrations are amazing.Birds don’t carry maps or compasses, yet they know where to go. They had developed their abilities to see the earth magnetic field. This ability is a wonder of nature. It takes advantage of the fact that the earth is like a huge bar magnet.It has north polar, which is positive and south polar, which isnegative. Somehow the birds are able to see this magnetic field and use it to their advantage.And even the way birds fly together is amazing. many migrating birds fly in a V formation. They do this to conserve energy. In a V formation, birds can use the energy of the birds in front of them. This energy comes from the air currents, generated by the wings. Conserving energy is necessary for the birds to survive in long journey. how do the birds know this? It’s truly amazing how the birds know this.Another amazing example of survive animal is the Salmon. Salmon spent m ost of their lives in the ocean which is saltwater. Yet, when it’s time to breed, they do so in fresh water rivers. Salmon can adapt their bodies to survive in both saltwater and freshwater. When it’s breeding time, they returned to the same river where they were born. It seems as if they had built-in map that guides them for hundreds of miles.Once they left the salt water, they don’t eat. They are determined to finish their journey despite of many obstacles. They swim against strong currents, jump over waterfalls and try to escape claws of hungry bears. Many die along the way but enough of them survive to breed and reproduce the next generation. Once they had lay their eggs, they die, having completed their journey. It seems that their purpose in life is just to reproduce.Migration takes the animals to new, more favorable environments when seasons change. Some of these journeys are long and dangerous, along routes with no obvious landmarks. The longest migration is that of the artic tern. It flies from polar to polar, twice a year. If a tern achieves its average lifespan of 20 years, the distance it hasflown will be equivalent to a journey to the moon and back.Humans also migrate, but seldom if ever for seasonal variations. unfortunately, human migrations are often due to human activities. Since the beginning of the 21st century, large scale migrations had become a global problem. Millions of migrants have had to leave their countries and look for new homes. Many have died along the way or left these refugees in camps until they are admitted into a new country. So, the question remains as to how our global communities will face these challenges.L5 Unit 1-4 vocabularyTo criticize someone is to point out their false or mistakes. Some people appreciate constructive criticism, which can help them develop their skills.To praise someone is to let them know they have done a great job. Some people expected to be praised when they perform well.To apologize to someone is to admit that you have done something wrong or hurtful. One way to apologize is to say you are sorry. I f your apology isn’t accepted, it means the person hasn’t forgiven you.To order people to do something means to use your power or position to get them to do it. Many people dislike being ordered to do things. In many cases, it’s better to make a request than order someone to do something.To encourage someone is to support their efforts and help build their confidence. A good teacher encourages students to do their best. To discourage someone is to get away their confidence.There are many cycle in nature, such as the circles of seasons. A cycle is a series of events that repeat, such as the daily cycle of light and dark.To evolve means to change or improve over a period of time. In biology, the series of evolution advanced life forms such as such as humans, have evolved from lower form of life.A force of attraction brings two objects closer together, such as the force of gravity. A force of repulsion pushes two objects away from each other, such as the force between two electrons.To transform means to change from one form into another. A transformation occurs when an object takes on(呈现) a new appearance or structure.To inherit something means to get it without having to ask or work for it. A child from a very rich family may inherit a lot of money.The number of times a cycle repeats itself within a period of time is its frequency. Gravity is a force of attraction between two objects with mass.L5 Unit 1-4 dialogueExcuse me, do you have a minute?I’m sorry, not right now. I’ll be free about in 15 minutes. Could you come back then? No, I’m afraid we have an emergency upstairs.Can’t you handle it?No, I think it will be best if you were there.Ok, I’ll finish this call and be right with you.Ok, what’s it?Kevi n and Bob are sho uting at each other and it’s upsetting everyone.Oh, not again.Both two have got to grow up. Who started it?I’m not sure but they were even pushing each other.Ok, this is unacceptable. You run on ahead and warn them that I’m coming.I want them to calm down before I get there. Can you do that?Ok, I’ll do what I can to calm them down. But you know Keven, he’s such a hard heart.Ok, Keven, I’ve warned you before. This is got to stop.Yes, I know. But Bob doesn’t cooperate. He’s impos sible to work with.E ven so, you can’t go around pushing people. That’s no way to handle things.If you were n’t doing such a good job, I’d have to let you go right now. Your behavior just isn’t acceptable.Yeah, I understand and I’m sorry. I just can’t stand working with him.I’m sure what to do. What were you do if you were me? Do you have any suggestions? To be honest, if I were you, I wouldn’t have the two of us working in the same office. I know Bob has been with the company longer than I have but h e’s doing a terrible jo b. When you are not around, he just bully people. People are afraid of him.Ok, I’ll look into(调查) a bit more.

Another reason was that she was very busy. She was a working mother, with a boy 8 years old and her husband who was rarely at home.

Dinner was going to be served soon and some of the classmates were going to give speeches. Sharon next was also got to say a few words too because people were curious. This was a surprise.

She told to her old friends and was amazed by how some others had changed.For example, Tom used to be good looking and athletic. He was one of the most popular students, and star basketball player.

Mysteries are things we don’t understand, such as how the Egyptian pyramids were built. In fact, we are surrounded by mysteries. What we know about the world, seems like very little. Scientists tell us that what we see in the universe is only a small part of what is there. The rest is invisible, including dark matter and dark energy. These two unknowns made up around 95% of the universe. Evidence for their existence comes from their effects on what we can observe, such as the motion and positions of the distant galaxies. Yet thought we know very little, we are able to build airplanes and communicate with smartphones. In some ways, we humans are very smart or at least we think we are. We still need to face big issues, like climate change and that’s going to be a huge challenge. The challenge for humans will be our abilities to adapt to our chancing environment.What about other form of life? How did they adapt? Seasonal variations, for example, can be one of the greatest challenges for animals to overcome. Overcoming such challenges will be a great achievement but hardly easy. Some birds migrate thousands of kilometers each year, to deal with seasonal changes. These migrations are amazing. Birds don’t carry maps or compasses yet they know where to go. They had developed their abilities to see the earth magnetic field. This ability is a wonder of nature. It takes advantage of the fact that the earth is like a huge bar magnet. It has north polar, which is positive and south polar, which is negative. Somehow the birds are able to see this magnetic field and use it to their advantage. And even the way birds flying together is amazing. Some migrating birds fly in a V formation. They do this to conserve energy. In a V formation, birds can usethe energy of the birds in front of them. These energy comes from the air currents, generated by the wings. Conserving energy is necessary for the birds to survive in long journey. Who did the birds know this? It’s truly amazing how the birds know this. Another amazing example of survive animal is the Salmon. Salmon spent most of their lives in the ocean which is salty water. Yet, when it’s time to breed, they do so in fresh water rivers. Salmon can adapt their bodies to survive in both saltwater and freshwater. When it’s br eeding time, they returned to the same water where they were born. It seems as if they had built-in map that guides them for a hundred of miles. Once they left the salt water, they don’t eat. They are determined to finish their journey despite of many obstacles. They swam against the strong currents, jump over the waterfalls and try to escape the claws of hungry bears. Many die along the way but enough of them survive to breed and reproduce the next generation. Once they had lay their eggs, they die, having completed their journey. It seems that their purpose in life is just to reproduce. Migration takes the animals to new,more favorable environments when seasons change. Some of these journeys are long and dangerous along around not obvious landmarks. The longest migration is that of a tern. It flies from polar to polar, twice a year. If a tern achieves its average lifespan of 20 years, the distance it has flown will be equivalent to a journey to the moon and back. Humans also migrate but seldom if ever for seasonal variations. fortunately, human migrations are often due to human activities. Since the beginning of the 21st century, large scale migrations had become a global problem. Millions of migrates had had to leave their countries and look for new homes. Many have died along the way or left these refugees in camps until they are admitted into a new country. So thequestion remains as to how our global communities will face these challenges.L5 Unit 1-4 vocabularyTo criticize someone is to point out their false or mistakes. Some people appreciate constructive criticism, which can help them develop their skills.To praise someone is to let them know they have done a great job. Some people expected to be praised when they perform well.To apologize to someone is to admit that you have done something wrong or hurtful. One way to apologize is to say you are sorry. If your apology isn’t accepted, it means the person hasn’t forgiven you.To order people to do something means to use your power or position to get them to do it. Many people dislike being ordered to do things. In many cases, it’s better to make a request than order someone to do something.To encourage someone is to support their efforts and help build their confidence. A good teacher encourages students to do their best. To discourage someone is to get away their confidence.There are many cycle in nature, such as the circles of seasons.
