Unit 4 Journey Across a Vast Land
Using Language
Talk about scenery and culture along a journey
Learning objectives
By the end of this section, you will be able to:
1. grasp some listening skills, like making predictions from pictures before listening;
2. hear and talk about journeys across vast lands;
3. listen for idioms and guess their meanings from the conversation;
4. learn how to end a conversation naturally;
5. continue the conversation about Canada and China based on your own travel experiences or the information from this unit.
Lead-in
Let’s review.
Li Daiyu and Liu Qian crossed the whole country by rail.
On the train, they start talking with a local passenger, Anna.
What will be talked about
Let’s brainstorm.
What comes to your mind when it comes to scenery and culture
the natural features, such as mountains, valleys, rivers and forests ...
the customs and beliefs, art, way of life and social organization ...
Talk about scenery and culture along a journey.
Pre-listening
Before you listen, look at the pictures below and guess what they will be talking about.
Cultural notes
This photo is of Lake Moraine in Banff National Park, Alberta, Canada, about 14 kilometres from Lake Louise. Like Lake Louise, Lake Moraine is fed by glaciers and gets its unique blue colour from rock flour. The mountains behind the lake are in the Valley of Ten Peaks, and they are famous throughout Canada because for many years they were on the Canadian $20 bill. Though the lake can only be reached by hiking trail, it is one of the most photographed places in Canada.
Before you listen, look at the pictures below and guess what they will be talking about.
People are skating on a frozen lake.
Young ladies are camping.
A woman is hiking in a forest.
Listen to the conversation and list some key words.

EXAMPLE:
Lake Louise
Climate of Canada (in winter and summer)
Geography of Canada ( mountains, the Prairie, lake, forests)

More than 1,300 kilometres.
Skiing, hiking, camping, and city things like movies or restaurants on the weekends.
Last autumn, they travelled from Beijing to Moscow on the Trans-Siberian Railway through Mongolia.

Anna: That’s ________ true of many places. However, many areas of south Canada have a ___________ climate, with very hot
summers and very cold winters, so some days it gets as hot as an ______.
Liu Qian: Is all of Canada full of ________ like here
Anna: Oh, no. In fact, by the time we get to Edmonton, we’ll be in the Prairie. This is as flat as a pancake and ________ for as far
as the eye can see — more than 1,300 kilometres — until we reach Winnipeg. After that, there are lakes and forests.
Daiyu: What kind of place is Winnipeg
Anna: It’s a small city almost in the _____ centre of North America, from east to west.
Liu Qian: What do you do to _____ time there
Anna: Oh, you name it ... _______, hiking, camping. But also city things: movies or restaurants on the weekends, for example. So

Daiyu: Oh, no. Last autumn, we travelled from Beijing to Moscow on the Trans-Siberian Railway through Mongolia.
Anna: How __________! What was it like
Liu Qian: Well, once you go north from Beijing, you pass through some low mountains and then enter the grasslands with its ______

Post-listening
D = Daiyu LQ = Liu Qian A = Anna
A: I thought China would be very crowded, given its large population.
D: Well, contrary to what many people believe, there are a lot of vast and empty spaces in
China, actually.
A: That’s great! There must be amazing scenery to see in China then!
LQ: There is. My favourite trip was by train to Tibet. First, we travelled south across the
Kunlun Mountains.
D: Even though it was summer, they were still covered in snow. It was so beautiful.
LQ: Then we entered the Tibetan Plateau.
D: The scenery there was simply fantastic. Green grass as far as the eye could see. And
there were so many wild animals.
LQ: Yes! We saw a lot of antelopes, yaks, deer ... and I think I even saw a snow leopard.
Sample Dialogue
A: Good heavens! That’s one of the rarest animals on earth.
LQ: But you know what was really extraordinary about our trip
A: No, what
LQ: The railway is so high that the trains have a special oxygen supply for the
passengers, kind of like you would find on an airplane, so that no one will
become ill.
A: You’re kidding! Anyhow, the next station is my stop! Take care and enjoy the
rest of your trip!
D: Thanks, Anna!
LQ: It was really great to meet you!
A: And it was nice talking to you!
