What do you know about reefs
Lead-in
A reef is a ridge of material at or near the surface of the ocean. There are natural and artificial reefs. Ecosystems are sometimes classified into terrestrial, or land-based, and aquatic. Coral reefs are one of the most diverse and delicate ecosystems on the planet.
There are three main types of coral reefs: fringing reefs, barrier reefs, and atolls. Fringing reefs extend to the ocean directly from shore. Barrier reefs are the most common type of reef. They are separated from the coast by a ring of water known as a lagoon.

1.What are the requirements of the job
Think & share
To get the job, the candidates have to make a short video showing how much they know about the reef.They also need to prove why they are the best person to do the job.
2.Why is the position described as “the best job in the world”
Do you agree with this description Why
It's been described as "the best job in the world" and I think so too. This is partly because people around the world are aware of the beauty of the ocean in this area, and partly because people are aware of the delicate balance that the environment is in and what humans can and must do to protect the reef.
Think & share
Australia's Great Barrier Reef is the largest, most varied and most beautiful coral reef in the world. Due to a variety of natural and man-made reasons, the Great Barrier Reef has suffered serious damage. To this end, Australia began to take a series of new measures: ① Increase the cultivation of grass carp to ensure the "healthy growth" of the Great Barrier Reef reef. They breed herbivores in large numbers, allowing them not only to eat the excess algae on the reef, but also to destroy too many coral polyps that have died. ②Scientists are trying to protect Great Barrier Reef corals by using "cloud brightening," a method to see if reflecting some of the sun's energy can help limit damage to fragile corals caused by ocean warming. Researchers have also tried a variety of methods, including using underwater plants to grow more larvae around ecosystems, laying protective membranes on reefs, and raising "turbocharged" baby corals on large farms.
3. Can you think of some other creative ways of raising awareness of protecting the reef
澳大利亚的大堡礁是世界上最大、最变化多端和最美丽的珊瑚礁。由于各种自然和人为的原因，大堡礁遭受了严重的破坏。为此，澳大利亚开始采取一系列新措施：①加大食草鱼的养殖，以保障大堡礁礁体的“健康成长”。他们大量养殖食草鱼，使其不仅可以吃掉礁上过多的海藻水草，还能消灭那已死去的太多的珊瑚虫。②科学家试图通过“云彩增亮”方法来保护大堡礁珊瑚，即通过这种方式来看看反射太阳的部分能量是否有助于限制海洋变暖对脆弱的珊瑚造成的损害。另外科研人员还尝试了各种各样的办法，包括使用水下在生态系统周围种植更多的幼体、在珊瑚礁上面铺上保护膜、在大型农场里饲养“涡轮增压”珊瑚宝宝。
Think & share
4.How is the theme of nurturing nature presented differently in the two reading passages of this unit
In the first reading passage the author uses his own experience to describe the challenges of building the railway and the solutions to these problems. In this way, the author wants to tell us that we should protect nature while constructing and developing human society. In the second reading passage the author explains the best job in the world, its requirements and its duty to raise the public awareness of the beauty of nature, and to understand the delicate balance of nature. Both of the passages stress that human beings should protect our environment and live in harmony with nature.
在第一篇阅读文章中，作者用自己的经历来描述修建铁路的挑战和解决这些问题的方法。 通过这种方式，作者想告诉我们，在建设和发展人类社会的同时，我们应该保护自然。 在第二篇阅读文章中，作者解释了世界上最好的工作，它的要求和它的责任是提高公众对自然之美的认识，并了解自然的微妙平衡。 两篇文章都强调人类应该保护我们的环境，与自然和谐相处。

谈谈山西文旅对文物保护的看法
铁佛寺位于山西高平市城东南5公里的米山村，现存建筑有铁佛殿、正殿、东西配殿等。铁佛寺因铸造有铁佛而得名，现铁佛不存。
该寺创建年代不详，据正殿青石门墩上所刻题记"金大定七年(1167)七月十三日铸造铁佛，修铁佛寺殿"，可知正殿建于金代，以后历代虽屡有修葺，至今仍然保留着金代手法。
大殿的东西两侧塑有二十四诸天，塑像排列拥挤，有可能是后人搬移置之殿内。这些塑像比真人高大，造型生动奇特，惟妙惟肖，表情各异，栩栩如生，是晋城市保存最完整的一处泥塑。
网游《黑神话：悟空》带火了山西文旅
近日，山西省文化和旅游厅官方发布了《黑神话：悟空（BLACK MYTH WU KONG）》的宣传片，为游戏预热同时宣传当地旅游业。展示了游戏中的真实取景地，包括：小西天、玉皇庙、铁佛寺、等文化古迹。铁佛寺于2024年8月24日对文博爱好者逐步开放引起热议。对此，你怎么看？
Recently, the popular game "Black Myth: Wukong" has brought fire to Shanxi cultural tourism, and raised disputes about whether the protection of cultural relics is open.
The network red city changed one after another, and Shanxi finally waited for its own opportunity.
The first domestic 3A game, "Black Myth: Wukong" (hereinafter referred to as "Black Myth"), has quickly won the favor of players around the world with its superb graphics, rich game content and excellent action design since its launch on August 20.
As an action role-playing game with Chinese mythology as the background, its art design and scene construction are largely based on real Chinese ancient buildings. According to statistics, the game was shot in 36 scenic spots in China, of which 27 were shot in Shanxi Province, including the Yungang Grottoes, Xuankong Temple and Shanhua Temple.
This strategy not only allows players to deeply experience the unique charm of Shanxi's ancient buildings in the virtual world, but also inspires people's yearning and curiosity for these ancient buildings in reality.
最近非常火的游戏《黑神话：悟空》带火了山西文旅，对文物保护是否开放提出争议。
网红城市换了一茬又一茬，山西终于等到了自己的机会。
首款国产3A游戏《黑神话：悟空》（下称：《黑神话》）自8月20日上线以来，以其精湛的画面，丰富的游戏内容和出色的动作设计迅速地赢得了全球玩家的青睐。
作为一款以中国神话为背景的动作角色扮演游戏，其美术设计和场景构建大量取材于现实的中式古建。据统计，该游戏在国内36个景点取景，其中山西省的取景地高达27处，包括了云冈石窟、悬空寺、善化寺等。
这一策略不仅让玩家在虚拟世界中深刻体验到了山西古建的独特魅力，而且也激发了人们对现实中这些古建筑的向往和好奇。
Relevant data show that on the day of the launch of "Black Myth", the tourism popularity of Shanxi scenic spot, the main location of the game, increased by 156% from the
previous quarter.
In the face of the wealth of the powerful, Shanxi culture and tourism Department has also actively responded to the release of "follow Wukong Tour Shanxi" video and other ways to further promote Shanxi's cultural tourism resources.
The heat of "Black Myth: Wukong" is still continuing, and the ancient buildings in Shanxi such as Xiaoxi Day and Gaoping Tiefu Temple appear in the game have been "bathing" in "the flow of the sky" for days. On August 24, Shanxi Gaoping City Cultural Relics Bureau issued an announcement, announcing that Tiefo Temple will be a limited open visit, this news has been unable to enter the Tiefo Temple for many years, "Xi Da Pu Ben"（喜大普奔）.
As a national key cultural relic protection unit, the Tiefo Temple located in Gaoping, Jincheng, Shanxi Province, has always been a dream place for lovers of culture and museums in China. Unlike those large temples with a grand appearance, Tiefo Temple "hidden" in a rural courtyard in Gaoping, the external low-key is completely unlike a national cultural treasure, visitors only open the heavy door, can see those amazing colorful sculpture legend.
相关数据显示，《黑神话》上线当日，游戏主要取景地——山西景区的旅游热度环比增长156%。
面对泼天的富贵，山西文化和旅游厅也积极做出反应，通过发布“跟着悟空游山西”视频等方式，进一步推广山西的文旅资源。
《黑神话：悟空》的热度仍在延续，隰县小西天、高平铁佛寺等出现在该游戏中的山西古建筑，连日来“沐浴”在“泼天的流量”中。8月24日，山西高平市文物局发布公告，宣布铁佛寺将进行有限式开放参观，这个消息让多年来无缘进入铁佛寺的文博爱好者“喜大普奔”。
作为全国重点文物保护单位，位于山西晋城高平的铁佛寺一直是国内文博爱好者的梦中之地。不同于那些拥有恢弘外观的大型寺庙，铁佛寺“隐”于高平的一个乡村院落中，外在低调得完全不像一个国家级的文博宝藏，参观者只有推开厚重的门后，才能看到那些惊为天人的彩塑传奇。
It is reported that for so many years, the Iron Buddha Temple has been guarded by local residents and is not open to tourists, and many netizens have shared their regrets that they have not entered the temple gate.
Therefore, whether the iron Buddha Temple is open to the outside world, netizens have also discussed, and the argument is different.
Some netizens said that according to the person in charge of the game, the scenic spots in "Black Mythology. Wukong" only account for 30% of the real scenic spots, and it is a pity that we can not visit the site! Shanxi cultural tourism can not be opened in time, so that cultural lovers can not visit, it is really regrettable!
However, some netizens said that Tiefo Temple is a cultural relic that local residents have tried all their efforts to preserve so far, if only considering the benefits of cultural tourism, hasty opening, over-development, will have a great impact on the protection of cultural relics, so tourists should have a little patience to wait for the cultural relics department to gradually open after identification, in order to be more beneficial to the long-term protection of cultural relics.
据悉，这么多年来，铁佛寺一直由当地居民守护，并不对游客开放参观，很多网友都分享过自己到了寺门口却无缘进入的遗憾。
因此，对铁佛寺是否对外开放，网友们也议论纷纷，说法不一。
有网友讲，据游戏负责人讲，《黑神话.悟空》里的景点只占真实景点的三成，不能实地探访确属遗憾！山西文旅不能及时开放，让文博爱好者得不到游览，确实令人遗憾！
但也有网友讲，铁佛寺是当地居民用尽所有努力才保存至今的文物，如果只考虑文旅收益，仓促开放，过度开发，对文物保护会形成很大影响，因此旅游者应稍有耐心等待文物部门经鉴定后逐步开放，以期对文物长期保护更有益。
What is your opinion on whether the protection of cultural relics should be open to the outside world
Please write down your opinion.
Think of arguments to support your point of view and make notes.
Natural heritage sites should be open to the public.
1.People could get to know more about them.
2.People could understand the importance of the sites and the need to protect them.
3.People could improve the local economy and the living standard of natives.
When people came to see the beautiful scenery from the Great Barrier Reef, they came to understand the delicate balance that the environment exists in and what can and must be done to protect it.

Activity 3
Activity 4
One possible version:
Traveling to natural heritage sites becoming more and more popular in our life. However, I think natural heritage sites should not be open to the public to visit.
What’s more, People could understand the importance of the sites and the need to protect them. For example, People go to visit the Great Barrier Reef to become aware of the beauty of the ocean in the area. What’s more, they came to understand the delicate balance that the environment exists in and what can be done to protect the reef.
In a word, I think natural heritage sites should be open to the public to visit. As long as we raise our awareness to protect the environment of the heritage sites, we can not only gain our knowledge but also improve living standard of the local people through visiting them.

The network red city changed one after another, and Shanxi finally waited for its own opportunity.
The first domestic 3A game, "Black Myth: Wukong" (hereinafter referred to as "Black Myth"), has quickly won the favor of players around the world with its superb graphics, rich game content and excellent action design since its launch on August 20.
As an action role-playing game with Chinese mythology as the background, its art design and scene construction are largely based on real Chinese ancient buildings. According to statistics, the game was shot in 36 scenic spots in China, of which 27 were shot in Shanxi Province, including the Yungang Grottoes, Xuankong Temple and Shanhua Temple.
This strategy not only allows players to deeply experience the unique charm of Shanxi's ancient buildings in the virtual world, but also inspires people's yearning and curiosity for these ancient buildings in reality.
最近非常火的游戏《黑神话：悟空》带火了山西文旅，对文物保护是否开放提出争议。
网红城市换了一茬又一茬，山西终于等到了自己的机会。
首款国产3A游戏《黑神话：悟空》（下称：《黑神话》）自8月20日上线以来，以其精湛的画面，丰富的游戏内容和出色的动作设计迅速地赢得了全球玩家的青睐。
作为一款以中国神话为背景的动作角色扮演游戏，其美术设计和场景构建大量取材于现实的中式古建。据统计，该游戏在国内36个景点取景，其中山西省的取景地高达27处，包括了云冈石窟、悬空寺、善化寺等。
这一策略不仅让玩家在虚拟世界中深刻体验到了山西古建的独特魅力，而且也激发了人们对现实中这些古建筑的向往和好奇。
Relevant data show that on the day of the launch of "Black Myth", the tourism popularity of Shanxi scenic spot, the main location of the game, increased by 156% from the
previous quarter.
In the face of the wealth of the powerful, Shanxi culture and tourism Department has also actively responded to the release of "follow Wukong Tour Shanxi" video and other ways to further promote Shanxi's cultural tourism resources.
The heat of "Black Myth: Wukong" is still continuing, and the ancient buildings in Shanxi such as Xiaoxi Day and Gaoping Tiefu Temple appear in the game have been "bathing" in "the flow of the sky" for days. On August 24, Shanxi Gaoping City Cultural Relics Bureau issued an announcement, announcing that Tiefo Temple will be a limited open visit, this news has been unable to enter the Tiefo Temple for many years, "Xi Da Pu Ben"（喜大普奔）.
As a national key cultural relic protection unit, the Tiefo Temple located in Gaoping, Jincheng, Shanxi Province, has always been a dream place for lovers of culture and museums in China. Unlike those large temples with a grand appearance, Tiefo Temple "hidden" in a rural courtyard in Gaoping, the external low-key is completely unlike a national cultural treasure, visitors only open the heavy door, can see those amazing colorful sculpture legend.
相关数据显示，《黑神话》上线当日，游戏主要取景地——山西景区的旅游热度环比增长156%。
面对泼天的富贵，山西文化和旅游厅也积极做出反应，通过发布“跟着悟空游山西”视频等方式，进一步推广山西的文旅资源。
《黑神话：悟空》的热度仍在延续，隰县小西天、高平铁佛寺等出现在该游戏中的山西古建筑，连日来“沐浴”在“泼天的流量”中。8月24日，山西高平市文物局发布公告，宣布铁佛寺将进行有限式开放参观，这个消息让多年来无缘进入铁佛寺的文博爱好者“喜大普奔”。
作为全国重点文物保护单位，位于山西晋城高平的铁佛寺一直是国内文博爱好者的梦中之地。不同于那些拥有恢弘外观的大型寺庙，铁佛寺“隐”于高平的一个乡村院落中，外在低调得完全不像一个国家级的文博宝藏，参观者只有推开厚重的门后，才能看到那些惊为天人的彩塑传奇。
It is reported that for so many years, the Iron Buddha Temple has been guarded by local residents and is not open to tourists, and many netizens have shared their regrets that they have not entered the temple gate.
Therefore, whether the iron Buddha Temple is open to the outside world, netizens have also discussed, and the argument is different.
Some netizens said that according to the person in charge of the game, the scenic spots in "Black Mythology. Wukong" only account for 30% of the real scenic spots, and it is a pity that we can not visit the site! Shanxi cultural tourism can not be opened in time, so that cultural lovers can not visit, it is really regrettable!
However, some netizens said that Tiefo Temple is a cultural relic that local residents have tried all their efforts to preserve so far, if only considering the benefits of cultural tourism, hasty opening, over-development, will have a great impact on the protection of cultural relics, so tourists should have a little patience to wait for the cultural relics department to gradually open after identification, in order to be more beneficial to the long-term protection of cultural relics.
据悉，这么多年来，铁佛寺一直由当地居民守护，并不对游客开放参观，很多网友都分享过自己到了寺门口却无缘进入的遗憾。
因此，对铁佛寺是否对外开放，网友们也议论纷纷，说法不一。
有网友讲，据游戏负责人讲，《黑神话.悟空》里的景点只占真实景点的三成，不能实地探访确属遗憾！山西文旅不能及时开放，让文博爱好者得不到游览，确实令人遗憾！
但也有网友讲，铁佛寺是当地居民用尽所有努力才保存至今的文物，如果只考虑文旅收益，仓促开放，过度开发，对文物保护会形成很大影响，因此旅游者应稍有耐心等待文物部门经鉴定后逐步开放，以期对文物长期保护更有益。

Traveling to natural heritage sites becoming more and more popular in our life. However, I think natural heritage sites should not be open to the public to visit.
