Making Notes
After reading, write down three or more things you have learned. We always remember things better if we take time to reflect.
Singapore — A Place You Will Never Forget!
Have you ever been to Singapore For thousands /'θa zndz/ of tourists from China, this small island in Southeast Asia is a wonderful and safe /se f/ place to take a holiday. ① On the one hand, more than three quarters of the population are Chinese, so you can simply/'s mpli/ speak Putonghua a lot of the time.
体裁：说明文
标题：标题生动形象，字里行间透出了新加坡的魅力。
On the other hand, Singapore is an English-speaking country, so it’s also a good place to practice your English! ②
Have you ever tried Chinese food outside of China Maybe you fear/f /, /f r/ that you won’t be able to find anything good to eat when you travel. ③ In Singapore, however, you’ll find a lot of food from China; you won’t have any problem getting rice, noodles or dumplings. Singapore is also an excellent place to try new food.
Whether/'we (r)/ you like Indian/' ndi n/ food, Western food or Japanese/ d p 'ni z/ food, you’ll find it all in Singapore! ④
Most large cities have zoos, but have you ever been to a zoo at night Singapore has a Night Safari/s 'fɑ ri/. It might seem strange to go to a zoo when it’s dark. ⑤ However, if you go to see lions, tigers or foxes/f ks z/, /fɑ ks z/ during the daytime, they’ll probably be asleep!
A lot of animals only wake up at night, so this is the best time to watch them. At the Night Safari, you can watch these animals in a more natural environment than in a normal zoo.
One great thing about Singapore is that the temperature is almost the same all year round. This is because the island is so close to the equator/ 'kwe t (r)/. So you can choose to go whenever /wen'ev (r)/ you like—spring/spr /, summer, autumn or winter. ⑥ And, of course, it’s not too far from China!

1 For thousands of tourists from China, this small island in Southeast Asia is a wonderful and safe place to take a holiday.
(1) thousand /'θa znd/ num. 一千
thousand 前面有具体的数字或者有several 修饰时，后面不加-s，不加of。thousand 表示约数时，要用复数形式，而且后面要跟介词of，即thousands of。
China has a history of more than five thousand years.
中国有五千多年的历史。
The exhibition has attracted thousands of visitors.
展览吸引了数以千计的参观者。
谚语记单词
A picture is worth thousand words.
一张图胜过千言万语。
速记小法
hundred, thousand, million的用法：
百、千、百万用法奇，基数词来修饰，直接单数莫迟疑；若是数据不明确，此时必须用复数，of 在后别忘记。
考题1: Many people like pandas. During this May Day holiday, t of tourists came to Chengdu Research Base to watch them.
housands
(2) safe /se f/ adj. 安全的；无危险的
safe 既可作定语也可作表语，反义词为dangerous，意为“危险的”。

Many wild animals still don’t have a safe place to live.
许多野生动物仍然没有一个安全的地方居住。

考题2: —Dear, put the knives out of the kids’ touch!
—OK. I’ll do it right away. It’s quite necessary to keep ______.
A．quiet B．warm C．safe
C
返回
【点拨】用词义辨析法。quiet安静的；warm 温暖的；safe安全的。根据句意可知，说话人让对方把刀放在孩子们够不到的地方，这是为了确保安全。
2 On the one hand, more than three quarters of the population are Chinese, so you can simply speak Putonghua a lot of the time. On the other hand, Singapore is an English-speaking country...
(1)on the one hand... on the other hand... 一方面……另一方面……

On the other hand
(2) three quarters 四分之三
分数的表达：①分子等于1 时，分子为基数词，分母为序数词。
1/3 one third 1/4 one fourth = one/a quarter
②分子大于1 时，分子为基数词，分母为序数词，分母加-s。
2/3 two thirds 3/4 three fourths=three quarters
分数表达的一种形式
速记小法
英语分数很好记，“子基母序”四个字；
分子若是等于一，分子分母皆单数；
分子若是大于一，分母还需加-s。
拓展： (1)“分数+ of + 可数名词单数/不可数名词”作主语时，谓语动词用单数形式。
About one fifth of the water is polluted.

(2) “分数+of+可数名词复数”作主语时，谓语动词用复数形式。
Three fifths of the students in this school are boys.
这所学校里五分之三的学生是男生。
考题4: Three ___________（five）of the students in our class like playing basketball.
fifths
【点拨】根据句意可知，我们班五分之三的学生喜欢打篮球。此处用分数表达，分子为基数词，分母为序数词，当分子大于一时，分母用复数。
(3) simply /'s mpli/ adv. 仅仅；只；不过
Sometimes parents simply want us to be happy.
有时候父母只是想要我们开心。

simply
【点拨】simple“简单的”，分析句子成分可知，空处在句中修饰“because of the smell”，所以应填副词。
