背景导学
Once upon a time, a daughter complained to her father that her life was unhappy and that she was tired of struggling all the time.
Her father, a chef, took her to the kitchen. He filled three pots with water and placed each on a fire. Once the three pots began to boil, he placed potatoes, eggs and coffee beans in them. After 20 minutes, he took them out, putting the potatoes and eggs in a bowl and the coffee in a cup.
Turning to his daughter, he said, “Look closer, and touch the potatoes.” She did and noted that they were soft. He then asked her to take an egg and break it. After stripping off the shell, she observed the hard-boiled egg. Finally, he asked her to taste the coffee. Its good smell brought a smile to her face.
“Father, what does this mean ” she asked. He then explained that the potatoes, the eggs and the coffee beans were in the same adversity-the boiling water. However, each one reacted differently.
The strong and hard potatoes became weak and soft in the boiling water. The eggs were fragile, with thin outer shell protecting their liquid until they were put in the boiling water. Then the inside of the eggs became hard. However, the coffee beans were unique. After they were exposed to the boiling water, they changed the water and created something new. “Which one do you want to be like ” he asked. “When adversity knocks on your door, how will you respond ”
In life, challenges happen to us all, but the only thing that truly matters is what happens within us.

教材原文 教材译文
A SUCCESSFUL FAILURE Perce Blackborow joined an expedition with Sir Ernest Shackleton to Antarctica on the ship Endurance in 1914. Shackleton was one of the most famous explorers of his day and it was considered a great honour to be part of his expeditions. Below are some of Blackborow’s diary entries. 31 Oct,1914 …Well, it so happened that one morning I bought a newspaper and read the advertisement about the Antarctic expedition. An expedition to the South Pole with the great Sir Ernest Shackleton-this is the adventure that I have been dreaming of. And I was ready for it. At the age of 19, I am fit and full of vigour. However, when I applied to join the expedition, Shackleton turned me down because he thought I was too young and wasn’t qualified. But I was so enthusiastic about the idea of going along with them that I secretly went aboard his ship, the Endurance, and hid in a small cupboard. Unfortunately, three days after we set off I was discovered. Shackleton did not want to turn back so he offered me a job, but only after he promised me, “If anyone has to be eaten, then you will be the first!” He assigned me to be a steward, and I now serve meals for twenty-eight men, three times a day. How everyone will envy me when I come back and tell them about the amazing places I have been to! 21Nov, 1915 The journey has not been easy. Endurance became stuck in the ice as we approached Antarctica. The ice froze around us and we were well and truly stuck! We saw the ship get crushed by the ice. And when the ship sank, our hearts sank with it. Before we abandoned the ship, Shackleton calmly called us together and told us to rescue our most essential supplies-the small boats, our food, the cook stove, candles, clothes, and blankets. This was no time to panic. We were not allowed to take most of our personal belongings, and Shackleton himself threw away all his gold. But to our surprise, he allowed Hussey to keep his banjo. Hussey often plays it to keep our spirits up. We are now camped on the ice and we have been managing to survive, but spring is coming, and the ice will soon begin to melt. 20 May, 1916 We have been struggling for days, but things on Elephant Island are going from bad to worse. We are now crowded together under one of our boats on the rocky shore of this miserable place. Soon after we arrived, Shackleton left us to find help on South Georgia Island, 1,320 kilometres away-the voyage was too dangerous and difficult for all of us to make it in our small boats. If Shackleton fails, will we have any hope of rescue No. No navy in the world ever stops at Elephant Island, and no one else knows that we are here. I feel low. It’s cold and windy. The island has no plants. Sometimes we are able to catch a seal or a penguin to eat. Otherwise, there is no food. I try to think of happier things: decent food, warm and dry clothes, a cosy bedroom, sunny days, and my mother’s face… However, these happy memories are soon interrupted by a sudden cold rush of air. I shouted, “Shut the door!”“Hold on now, Perce. Don’t you go turning into another Tom,” came the reply. “We’ve caught another penguin, so it’s penguin soup tonight!” Bless Frank Wild, the kindest man there is after our leader, Ernest Shackleton. How could I become as selfish and bad-tempered as Thomas Orde-Lees! Without Frank and Ernest, we’d all be dead by now. Their genuine concern for others, their perseverance, and their resolve fill me with hope. Perhaps there is a chance we will return home, after all. 一次成功的失败 珀西·布莱克博罗于1914年加入欧内斯特·沙克尔顿爵士的“坚忍”号南极探险之旅。沙克尔顿是他那个时代最著名的探险家之一, 参加他的探险活动被视为极大的荣耀。以下是布莱克博罗的几篇日记摘录。 1914年10月31日 ……好吧, 有天早上, 我碰巧买了份报纸, 看到一则有关南极探险的广告。 跟随伟大的欧内斯特·沙克尔顿爵士去南极探险——这是我一直梦寐以求的冒险之旅。我已经准备好了。19岁的我身体健康、充满活力。然而, 当我申请加入探险队时, 沙克尔顿拒绝了我, 因为他认为我太年轻, 没有资格。但我对与他们一起探险实在充满热情, 所以偷偷登上了他的船——“坚忍”号, 藏在一个小橱柜里。不幸的是, 我们出发三天后我就被发现了。沙克尔顿不想返航, 于是给了我份工作, 但在这之前他警告我:“要是到了不得不吃人的地步, 你就是第一个!”他安排我做服务员, 因此, 我现在给28个人提供一日三餐。 等我回来告诉大家我去了哪些令人惊叹的地方时, 他们该多羡慕我啊! 1915年11月21日 这段旅程并不轻松。当我们接近南极洲时,“坚忍”号卡在了冰里。我们周围都结冰了, 我们彻底被困住了!我们看到船被冰压碎了。船沉没时, 我们的心也跟着沉了。 在我们弃船之前, 沙克尔顿平静地把我们叫到一起, 告诉我们要抢救最重要的物资——小船、食物、炊具、蜡烛、衣服和毯子。现在没时间恐慌。他不允许我们带走大部分的个人物品, 沙克尔顿自己也扔掉了自己所有的黄金。但出乎我们意料的是, 他让赫西留着他的班卓琴。赫西经常演奏它来振奋我们的精神。 我们现在在冰上扎营, 想方设法生存。但是, 春季将至, 冰很快就会开始融化。 1916年5月20日 我们已经挣扎了数日, 但象岛上的情况却越发糟糕了。现在, 在这个悲惨之地的岩石海岸我们挤在一艘小船下。我们到达后不久, 沙克尔顿就离开我们去1,320千米远的南乔治亚岛寻求帮助了——这次航行太过危险, 加之困难重重, 我们都去的话, 仅靠我们坐的小船是没法成功的。要是沙克尔顿失败了, 我们还有得救的希望吗?没有, 世上没有一支海军会在象岛停留, 也没有其他人知道我们在这里。 我心情很低落。天气又冷又刮着风, 岛上没有任何植被。有时, 我们能抓到一只海豹或企鹅来吃, 否则就没有食物。我尽力去想一些更快乐的事情:像样的食物, 温暖干燥的衣服, 舒适的卧室, 阳光明媚的日子, 还有我妈妈的脸……然而, 这些快乐的回忆很快就被突然袭来的冷空气打断了。 我大喊:“关门!”“要坚持住啊, 珀西。你可不要变成另一个汤姆。”有人答道, “我们又抓到一只企鹅, 今晚喝企鹅汤!” 上天保佑弗兰克·怀尔德, 他是除了我们的领袖欧内斯特·沙克尔顿外, 最善良温和的男人。我怎么会变得跟托马斯·奥德利斯一样自私和暴躁啊!要不是弗兰克和欧内斯特, 我们早就死了。他们对他人真诚的关心, 他们的毅力和决心让我充满了希望。毕竟, 也许我们还是有机会回家的。

教材原文 THE REWARD FOR PERSEVERANCE We watched as Shackleton and the boat sailed away from Elephant Island. It was easy to imagine the danger ahead of them. Would they ever return to find us What might happen to them What if they were delayed We felt so alone and desperate. But it was not for long. There was nothing like a good dinner and some music to cheer us up. Life fell into a regular pattern. Staying alive took all our time and energy. For example, we needed water, and Elephant Island had none. We found that we could melt ice from the ocean and drink the water from it. But how could we make fire There were no trees growing on Antarctica and no oil, so the only fuel we could use was animal fat. This gave off oily, black smoke, but it stayed burning even in strong winds. Food was also a problem, as we did not find any vegetables or fruit on the island. One of our group members, Lionel Greenstreet, noted in his diary about how bored he was with the meals: “The food now is pretty well all meat of sea creatures.” If it weren’t for sea animals, we would all starve. As a chef, it was my duty to cook, so I tried to vary the meals in whatever way I could. But it was difficult. We had to be careful not to go outside too often, as the changing temperatures could make us ill. It was almost as dangerous to become too hot from wearing too many clothes as to become too cold from wearing too few. The sweat could freeze very quickly. Many of us also became ill from the black smoke of the animal fat we burnt for our fires. It damaged our eyes and burnt our lungs. The twenty-two of us lived like this in the cold for four months. Our discipline and team spirit kept us optimistic and helped us deal with our fears in a positive and successful way. We also celebrated our birthdays, festivals, and even the times when we caught a sea animal. This was an episode in my life that I would never forget. When we were finally rescued, we felt such relief and joy that many of us could not hide our tears. We were at last free to go home to warm beds, good food, and the care of our family and friends. Our optimism and faith in Shackleton had helped us persevere in staying alive. And he paid us back by his commitment to save us from a slow but painful death. 教材译文 毅力的奖赏 我们看着沙克尔顿驾船驶离象岛,不难想象他们将要面临的危险境地。他们还会回来找我们吗?他们会遇到什么?如果他们被耽搁了怎么办?我们感到非常孤独和绝望,但这种情绪并没持续多久,没有什么比一顿好饭和一些音乐更能让我们振作起来了。 生活陷入常规的循环往复,光是活下去就耗费了我们所有的时间和精力。比如,我们需要水, 可是象岛上没有。我们发现我们可以融化海洋中的冰来获得饮用水。可是我们怎么生火呢?南极洲没有树木生长,也没有石油,因此我们唯一可用的燃料是动物脂肪。它燃烧时会散发出油腻的黑烟,但任是强风也无法将其吹灭。 食物也是个问题,因为我们在岛上找不到任何蔬菜或水果。团队中的一名成员莱昂内尔·格林斯特里特在日记里记录了他对这些食物的厌倦:“现在的食物基本都是海洋动物的肉。”要不是这些海洋动物,我们都得挨饿。作为厨师,我的职责就是做饭,所以我得竭尽所能改变花样,可是真的很难。 我们必须小心些,不要经常外出,因为变化的温度会让我们生病。因为穿太多衣服而变得太热和因为穿得太少而变得太冷几乎是同样危险的。汗水很快就会结冰。我们中的许多人也因为燃烧动物脂肪产生的黑烟而生病。它损伤了我们的眼睛,灼伤了我们的肺。 我们22个人就这样在寒冷中生活了4个月。我们的纪律和团队精神使我们保持乐观,帮助我们用积极和成功的方式应对恐惧。我们也会庆祝我们的生日和节日,甚至庆祝抓获海洋动物的时刻。这是我人生中一段永生难忘的经历。 当我们最终获救时,我们如释重负,喜极而泣。我们终于可以回家了,回归温暖的床(享受)美味的食物,以及家人和朋友的关心。我们的乐观和对沙克尔顿的信任帮我们坚持活了下来。他也兑现了他的承诺,将我们从缓慢而痛苦的死亡中拯救了出来。

Born into a teacher’s family on November 7, 1867, in Poland, Madame Curie is one of the greatest physicists.
When she was young, she became interested in physics. At that time women were not admitted into universities in Poland, so she was determined to go to university in Paris, during which time she led a very poor life. However, she worked very hard and succeeded in getting a degree in physics.
Madame Curie devoted all her life to her research. She was not only the founder of the Radium Institute, but also the discoverer of two kinds of radioactive elements-polonium and radium. She was regarded as the mother of Ra. In 1903, she and her husband were given the Nobel Prize in Physics. She received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1911. So she became the first scientist in the world to win two Nobel Prizes.
Madame Curie sets a good example for us, so all the people show great respect for her.

说文解字
1. resolve v.决定; 决心; 解决(问题或困难)。前缀re-意为“重新, 再”, 词根“-solv”意为“松开”, 所以resolve 字面意思为“再松开”, 引申为“解决”之意。2. 前缀re-的基本意思是“back”, 由此又引申出“again”之意, 所以其经常表示“重新; 再”, 以re-为前缀的词还有rebuild (重建), review(复习), reunion(团圆; 重聚)等。词根-solv源自拉丁语, 意为“松开”, 以-solv为词根的词还有dissolve(溶; 消散), absolve(宣告……无罪)等。
