第一学时 Reading and Comprehension
Mount Kilauea
Mount Kilauea,the world's most active volcano,is on the island of Hawaii.It is not far from Manua Loa,the largest volcano in the world.Mauna Loa and Mount Kilauea together form the Volcanoes National Park in Hawaii.
Mount Kilauea has produced lava more than fifty times in the last one hundred years. Sometimes the lava moves slowly. At other times it pours out very fast as a huge amount of presure forces it from the volcano. During these times,it moves almost as quickly as water moving down the side of mountain. Sometimes Mount Kilauea produces a large amount of lava that seems like rivers of fire. When the lava from Mount Kilauea reaches the ocean,its fierce heat produces a great amount of steam that rises into the air. The lava is so hot that it continues to burn underwater for some time. The lava from Mount Kilauea continues to add land to the island as the volcanoes of Hawaii have always done. It was these volcanoes that formed the islands of Hawaii. Most of the time the lava of Mount Kilauea seems to move peacefully toward the ocean. Yet it is not as peaceful as it seems from a distance.

第一学时 Reading and Comprehension课文助手一、请将课文“An Exciting Job”翻译成汉语,然后对照译文助读自主勘误
译文助读一份令人兴奋的工作
我的工作是世界上最伟大的工作。我跑的地方是稀罕奇特的地方,和我一道工作的人来自世界各地。(我们)有时在室外工作,有时在办公室里,有时工作中要用科学仪器,有时要会见当地百姓和游客,但是我从来不感到厌烦。虽然我的工作偶尔也有危险。但是我并不在乎,因为危险能激励我,使我感到有活力。然而,最重要的是,通过我的工作能保护普通百姓免遭世界上最大的自然威力之一的威胁——火山。 20年前,作为一名火山学家,我被派到夏威夷火山观测站(HVO)工作。我的任务是收集有关基拉韦厄火山的数据资料,这是夏威夷最活跃的火山之一。收集和评估了这些信息之后,我就帮助其他科学家一起预测下次火山熔岩将往何处流失,流速是多少。我们的工作拯救了许多人的生命,因为熔岩要流经之地,老百姓都可以得到离开家园的通知。遗憾的是,我们不可能把他们的家搬离岩浆流过的地方,因此,许多房屋被熔岩淹没,或者焚烧殆尽。 当滚烫的岩石从火山喷发出来并撒落回地面时,它所造成的损失比想象的要小些。这是因为在岩石下落的基拉韦厄火山顶附近无人居住。而像波浪一样顺着山坡缓慢下流的火山熔岩所造成的损失却大得多,这是因为火山岩浆所流经的地方,一切东西都被掩埋在熔岩下面了。然而,火山喷发本身的确是很壮观的,我永远也忘不了第一次看见火山喷发时的情景。那是在我抵达夏威夷后的第二个星期。那天我辛辛苦苦地干了一整天,很早就上床睡觉了。我在熟睡中突然感到床铺在摇晃,接着我听到一阵奇怪的声音,就好像一列火车在我的窗外行驶一样。因为我在夏威夷曾经经历过多次地震,所以对这种声音我并不在意。我刚要再睡,突然我的卧室亮如白昼。我赶紧跑出房间,来到后花园,在那儿我能远远地看见基拉韦厄火山。在山的一边有火山喷发,红色发烫岩浆像喷泉一样,朝天上喷射达几百米高。真是绝妙的奇景! 就在这次火山喷发的第二天,我有幸作了一次近距离的观察。我和另外两位科学家驱车上山,到最靠近这次火山喷口的地方才下车。早先从观测站出发时就带了一些特别的安全服,于是我们穿上安全服再走近火山口。我们三个人看上去就像宇航员一样。都穿着白色的防护服遮住全身,戴上了头盔和特别的手套,还穿了一双大靴子。穿着这些衣服走起路来实在不容易,但我们还是缓缓往火山口的边缘走去,并且向下看到了红红的沸腾的中央,另外两人攀下火山口去收集供日后研究用的岩浆,我是第一次经历这样的事,所以留在山顶上观察他们。 如今,我和当初从事这项工作时一样满怀热情。虽然我从事火山研究很多年了,但是我至今仍对火山的壮丽景色以及它那潜在的巨大破坏力感到惊愕不已。二、课文精选段落背诵(请注意关联词的使用)
I was appointed as a volcanologist working for the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory (HVO) twenty years ago. My job is collecting information for a database about Mount Kilauea, which is one of the most active volcanoes in Hawaii. Having collected and evaluated the information, I help other scientists to predict where lava from the volcano will flow next and how fast. Our work has saved many lives because people in the path of the lava can be warned to leave their houses. Unfortunately, we cannot move their homes out of the way, and many houses have been covered with lava or burned to the ground.第三学时 Using Language

词语辨析:living;alive;live
这三个形容词都表示“活的”的意思,但在具体含义和用法上有区别。
living既可以用作名词也可用作形容词。作名词时,表示“生存、生计、过活”。作形容词时,表示“活的”,可用于指人也可用于指物,可作定语也可作表语;指人时既可表示“健在”,还可表示在某段时间是活着的,尤其是指和死相对的“活着”。
alive多用于指人,往往指虽有死的可能,但目前还活着,强调“活着的”。在句中多作表语,也可用作后置定语或补语。
live作形容词,主要用于指物,表示“活的、有生命的”,还可表示“实况转播的”。一般只用作定语,放在名词前。
A living language should be learned orally.
活的语言应该通过口头来学习。(作定语修饰事物)
He earned a living as a salesman.
他当推销员谋生。(名词)
His father was still living when his mother died.
他母亲死时,他父亲还在世。
Is your grandfather still living?
你爷爷还在世/健在吗?
The old man is still alive.那位老人还活着。(含有“病情很重,但目前还没有死”的意思)

如何描述旅游景点
?技巧点拨
旅游景点介绍实质上是说明文的一种,所以它首先要具备说明文的特点,即要按照一定的结构顺序(时间顺序、空间顺序、逻辑顺序等)和模式(先总后分、由整体到局部、由概述到细节)来展开描写。其次,要重点突出,详略得当。写作时不一定要面面俱到,要重点描写该旅游景点的特别之处,突出其特色(如其独特的风景特色、历史典故、地理风貌、风土人情、传说故事、民族习俗或名胜古迹等),这样才能给读者留下深刻的印象。最后,语言要生动,富有感染力,使读者有身临其境之感且产生强烈的旅游欲望。
?常用表达

stands/lies in the east...

is surrounded by...
has a population of...
