Careful reading
I can see its little shops, its tiny palaces, its forum, its wine bars, its theatre. Trading ships bringing imports to the city or carrying exports overseas, along with golden pleasure boats for the rich, were crowded together in the glassy water of the port. The boats of the fishermen moved rapidly in all directions.
Pompeii was lively, beautiful and prosperous.
What scenes are presented in the city of Pompeii
What words would you use to describe Pompeii
Read para. 1 and answer the questions.
Its little shops, tiny palaces, forum, wine bars and theatre.
The port of Pompeii
Trading ships
Glassy water
Careful reading
a. The fire moved and changed in colour with every moment.
b. The mountain-cloud rolled near, dark and rapid, like a river. It threw out a shower of ashes and huge pieces of burning stone!
c. A huge cloud shot from the peak of the volcano, looking like a huge tree of fire.
d. The earth began to shake and the sound of falling roofs could be heard.
e. The earthquake came.
c→a→d→b→e
Read paras. 2-4 and rearrange the sentences about the scene of the volcanic eruption in right order.
Careful reading
In paragraph 3, the author uses the phrases “the cries of women”, “the earth shaking” and “a shower of ashes” to let the reader hear, feel and see what is happening in Pompeii at that moment.
Similes help the reader visualize what is happening: “the mountain-cloud seemed to roll towards them, dark and rapid, like a river”.
Read paras. 2-4 and answer the question.
How does the author create a sense of fear and confusion during the volcanic eruption
Careful reading
In paragraph 4, verb-ing forms like “running, pressing, pushing” create feelings of confusion because they show that these actions are happening at the same time. Fear is created with phrases like “wife was separated from husband, or parent from child” showing that in the darkness, everyone in Pompeii risked being separated—no one was safe.
Read paras. 2-4 and answer the question.
How does the author create a sense of fear and confusion during the volcanic eruption
Careful reading
Its walls were fresh as if painted yesterday; not a single colour changed on the rich pattern of its floors. In its forum, the half-finished columns seemed as if just left by the workman's hand.
What was the city like after it was unearthed
Read para. 5 and answer the question.
Walls
Columns
Thinking
Compare the first and last paragraph. What effect do they create What does the author want to remind us
They create a strong comparison between Pompeii's lively past and lifeless present. By doing so, the author wants to remind us that in the flowing river of time, human's life is just a ripple and in the face of Mother Nature's power, human beings are small and weak.
Discussion
People in Pompeii were not aware of the signs before the volcano erupted, and the city was destroyed. Do you think that we will be better able to protect ourselves from natural disaters in the future Why or why not
Option 1
Yes, I believe we will be better able to protect ourselves from natural disasters in the future. The development of science and technology will improve the ability to predict the arrival of natural disasters and help us be better organized and prepared for disasters.
Option 2
No. No matter how advanced science and technology may be in the future, natural disasters will always challenge us because most of them are unpredictable. Human technical skill will never match the power of nature so our ability to protect ourselves will always be limited and this means that we will always be victims of natural disasters in some way.

He looked as if / though he was ill.
It seems as if it is going to rain.
它还可引导方式状语从句。如:
I remember the whole thing as if / though it happened yesterday.
①当说话者认为句子所述的是真实的或极有可能发生或存在的事实时，as if从句用陈述语气。如:
He talks as if he is drunk.
②当说话人认为句子所述的是不真实的或极少有可能发生或存在的情况时，as if从句用虚拟语气。
