Unit 6
Nature in words
Developing ideas
＊DDT is a well-known pesticide(杀虫剂).
＊The abbreviation stands for Dichloro-Diphenyl-Trichloroethane, one of its names.
＊The Swiss chemist Paul Hermann Müller
(保罗·赫尔曼·穆勒) was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1948, for his discovery.
Look at the infographic below and answer the questions.
1. How does DDT reach the human body in the food chain
Check your answers!
1. When DDT is sprayed onto plants in order to kill insects, it is absorbed by plants and subsequently consumed by animals; humans in turn eat those animals. DDT also leaks through the soil and into rivers and lakes, where it contaminates fish consumed by humans.
2. DDT is highly poisonous to living organism, including humans.
Have you ever read the book Silent Spring that led to the banning of DDT
2. What harm does DDT cause
● Silent Spring was written by Rachel Carson (1907-1964) in 1962 who was a marine biologist and nature writer.
●The book outlined the dangers of chemical pesticides, led to a nationwide ban on DDT and other pesticides and sparked the movement that ultimately led to the creation of the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
Book reviews are assigned to allow readers to present their own opinion regarding the author's ideas included in the book or passage. They are a form of literary criticism that analyzes the author's ideas, writing techniques, and quality. A book analysis is entirely opinion-based, in relevance to the book.
Today we will learn a book review on Silent Spring. Now let’s predict what will be mentioned in the passage.
Now read the passage and check your prediction.

1. On the morning that had once throbbed with the dawn chorus of robins, catbirds, doves, jays, wrens, and the scores of other bird voices there was now no sound; only silence lay over the fields and woods and marsh.
定语从句
Paraphrase：
Once, the mornings had been full of the sound of many different birds, including robins, catbirds, doves, jays, wrens and many others. But now there was no sound, only silence in the fields and woods and marsh.
原本喧闹的清晨，再也没有了知更鸟、北美猫鸟、鸽子、松鸦、鹪鹩的奏鸣曲以及其他小鸟的鸣叫声；只留下一片寂静，笼罩在田野、树林和沼泽的上空。
时间状语
