Now listen and check.
Can you read and translate ?
Now let’s learn more about the wonders of the world.
Listen and read.
T:Let’s call Wonders of the World and join in the
discussion. I think natural wonders are more
interesting than man-made ones. And I think the
Giant’s Causeway is the most fantastic natural wonder.
L:Hm, I’ve never seen it, so I’m not sure I agree with you.
Why do you like it, Tony?
T:Well, I visited the Giant’s Causeway two years ago. It’s
huge. There’re about 40,000 rocks, most of them with
six sides. It runs for several hundred metres on the
eastern coast of Northern Ireland.

J:That sounds great, though I think the Victoria Falls in
Africa is even more fantastic. They’re about 1,700 metres
wide and 100 metres high. You can hear the loud noise a
few kilometres away.
B:Wow, that’s huge! But in my opinion, man-made
wonders are more exciting than natural ones. Look at the
Terracotta Army. It’s more than 2,000 years old.
D:I agree with you, Betty. And I think the Three Gorges
Dam is fantastic too. It’s about 2,300 metres long, 185
metres high and 15 metres wide at the top. It produces
electricity for millions of people in China.

Language points
1. Let’s call Wonders of the World and join in the discussion.
join in的意思是“参加某种活动，加入到”。
辨析：join，join in， take part in
1)join指加入某个党派，团体组织等，成为其成员之一，意为 “参军、入团、入党等”。和某人一起做某事，其结构为：join sb. in (doing) sth.，根据上下文，in (doing) sth. 也可以省去。
2) join in多指参加小规模的活动如“球赛、游戏”等，常用于日常口语。
3) take part in 指参加会议或群众性活动等，着重说明句子主语参加该项活动并在活动中发挥作用。
如：We’ll _________________the English evening tonight.
When did your brother _____________the army?
Will you _______________ us in the discussion?
take part in
join
join
2. I think natural wonders are more interesting than man-made ones.
1) I think 为主句，后面是省略了连接词that的宾语从句。如：I think maths is more difficult than English.
2) ones 作代词，指代wonders。 ones 指代复数名词，同类不同物。
3. Hmm, I’ve never seen it, so I’m not sure I agree with you.
1) be sure that/ be sure of 确信... ，对...有把握。
2) agree with表示“同意某人的意见、想法、解释”等（对象是人或人的观点）; agree to表示 “同意/赞成……”，后面跟表示计划、建议、安排等的名词、代词，或接动词原形。
agree on用于表示“（双方或多方）在某事或某方面取得一致意见”。
如： Her parents both agree _______her decision.
We all agree _______ you.
