been two days since they began the
climb to the top. At first he had felt
excited and full of anticipation at the
thought of climbing such a high
mountain but now he just felt tired
and weary. He was in his sixties.
He wanted to stop climbing, lie
down and go to sleep. As he
staggered slowly at the back of
the group he heard his brother, Fred, calling to him.
“It's not far now! Come on, Sam. You don't want to come so far and not succeed. What will you tell your grand- children ” Sam smiled and lifted his head. The top of the mountain appeared closer now. Perhaps he could make it if he only kept going. It was now or never to the top!

Meimei put down the telephone, picked up her bag and rushed down the street. She had to get the afternoon bus to go and see her mother. It was terrible news to hear that her mother was so ill again. As she rushed towards the bus stop she could see the people picking up their bags.
That must mean that the bus was coming. Meimei took her wallet
from her bag. She stood there helplessly as she saw there was no money in her wallet. She was not going to get there in time and she would miss her mother who was eager to see her Meimei began to cry as the bus started and moved away towards the city.
What was she going to do Just then a motorbike drew up beside her. It was her neighbour, Wang Yi. “What's the matter, Meimei ” she asked. When Meimei told her, Wang Yi moved fast. “Get on,” she said. “I’II take you home.” They drove fast along the road, passing the bus as it slowly climbed up the hill and arrived at her home ahead of it.
“How can I ever thank you ” whispered Meimei gratefully. “It's my pleasure,” said Wang Yi. “Give my love to your mother and tell her that I hope I'll have a wonderful daughter like you one day.” Meimei smiled for the first time that afternoon. “I certainly will,” she said. “I shall be in plenty of time now.”

Try to skim through the passage and get the main plot of the story.
This is the true story of one young man, Perce Blackborow, who hid aboard the ship that took Ernest Shackleton's expedition to the South Pole. He was accepted by him, once he was found, and became a steward and cook for the rest of the expedition.
The main plot of the story
When the ship was crushed by ice, Perce was one of those left behind on Elephant Island to wait for rescue. Shackleton and a few others set out through very dangerous seas to South Georgia Island to get help so that they could all be saved.
The conditions for those left on Elephant Island were very bad. They had little food, other than penguin or seal, problems keeping warm, problems melting the ice for water and protecting their fingers and toes from frostbite. Perce had to have his toes removed because they bad become affected by the cold.
Nevertheless the small group remained loyal to their captain's instructions: to remain cheerful and optimistic despite all difficulties. Above all they worked to stay alive till Shackleton returned to rescue them.
Answer some questions
1. Where is the reading passage set
2. Why is the title of the passage “A
successful failure” Was the expedition
a failure Was it a success
3. Who does Perce admire and why
Words and expressions explained
1 ... almost blocking out the memories of happier times.
2 Just as I am about to become self-pitying
3 ... must have mourned this unexpected end…
... almost blocking out the memories of happier times.
The expression to block out here is used in an idiomatic way. The verb literally means to stop light reaching a place but it is used in this context to mean to stop remembering things.
2 Just as I am about to become self-pitying, the door to our shelter opens and a blast of cold air tears through the hut.
This is a compound word that means to feel sorry for oneself and in the story Perce is about to feel very sorry for himself because of the desperate situation they are in.
3. I believe Shackleton must have mourned this unexpected end to his expedition, but he did not waste time on regrets.
To mourn for someone or something means that you are very sad that a person has died or a thing has ended.
Understanding ideas
1. Why were Perce and his colleagues left on Elephant Island
2. Why did Perce not apply for the expedition like everyone else
3. Why is he unable to think of happier
times as he lies inside his sleeping bag
4. What are his problems
5. Do you think he has a sensible
approach to his situation Why
Discussion of ideas
Which is more valuable: a man's life
or visiting a previously unvisited spot
2. What precautions should have been
taken before the expedition in case of
emergency
3. Do you think Perce and his companions
had any alternative to eating seals and
penguins What would you have done
4. Are there any circumstances under
which you would eat seals or
penguins Give your reasons.
1. Choose the correct answer to each question.
1). Why did Blackborow think that being “young, fit and energetic” would encourage Shackleton to take him on the trip
A Shackleton liked young people who were
fit and energetic.
B It would be cold and Shackleton would
need young, energetic people to do
difficult jobs
C Shackleton wanted people who were fit
but not trained in useful skills.
D Blackborow would not have gone unless
he was young and energetic.
2). Why did Shackleton accept Perce when he found him hiding in the ship after the voyage had started
A He didn't have time to turn round and
take him back to England.
B He admired his courage and
encouraged him to stay.
C He felt angry but could not show it so
he accepted the boy.
D He made the best of the situation.
3). Why did Shackleton not show how
disappointed he was when the ship sank
A He thought he could always
organize another expedition.
B He knew it would be easier to cross
Antarctica without the ship.
C He felt the men would need
encouraging after this disaster.
D He had already taken all necessary
supplies from the ship.
2. When the ship sank, Shackleton encouraged each sailor to collect three personal things (camera, banjo, diary, family album, etc) to take with him. Try to make a dialogue between Shackleton and three of his men about what to leave, what to take and why.
Hints:
….want to take something to read
… take my "gameboy" with me to play
with.
… need a battery … cannot buy
batteries at the South Pole!
… choose a pack of cards… play with
that.
… take my diary… write about how it
feels and what happens to us every
day
… taking a bar of soap … try and
keep clean…
S1: OK. This was Shackleton’s position. The ship is sinking. He has collected essential supplies and now suggested that each person take three personal things. What sort of things do you think we should choose
S2: I want to take something to read. I would feel very upset if there was nothing to do while we were waiting to be rescued.
S3: That’s a good idea. I would take my “gameboy” with me to play with.
S4: Do you think that’s a good idea You need a battery for that and you cannot buy batteries at the South Pole!
S3: That’s true. Perhaps it would be better if I chose a pack of cards. We can all play with that.
S1: That’s a good idea. Now what about you, other
S2: Perhaps I would take my diary. Then I can write about how it feels and what happens to us every day. That way we could keep a record.
S3: And I am thinking of taking a bar of soap so I can try and keep clean. It makes me miserable if I feel dirty. So it will help keep me cheerful.
S1: Those are good choices and good reasons. Now you each have two more to choose…

A Good Master Remembered
Ludwig van Beethoven, a major composer of the nineteenth century, overcame many personal problems to achieve artistic greatness.
Read the passage and discuss the questions:
In what ways does the servant
admire Beethoven
He admires his persistence in
composing and the way be
included his feelings about his
deafness into his music.
2 Give two examples of how
Beethoven's deafness affected him.
Beethoven's deafness affected him
personally because he had to stop
being a concert pianist and
concentrate on composing music.
It affected him musically because
he was able to use his emotions in his
music and write even greater music.
3 What might Beethoven have done
if he had net gone deaf
If he had not gone deaf, Beethoven would still have been famous as a great pianist.
4 What would you concentrate on if
you were to go deaf
5 Many people were frightened when they first met Beethoven. Why
His moods were changeable and
could grow wild and angry. He
sometimes appeared like a wild man.
In addition he was often so
involved in his music that he forgot to
brush his hair or wear appropriate
clothes.

HOW BEETHOVEN USED HIS DEAFNESS TO MAKE GREAT MUSIC
In 1802 Beethoven became very upset when he realized that he would never hear accurately again. Because he was unable to share his feelings with others, he poured all his feelings into his music. His fifth symphony was the first where
these powerful feelings were expressed. In the first movement Beethoven introduces a strong beat, which is repeated to make a rhythm, it has been described as “fate knocking at the doer”. It shows Beethoven’s attitude to his problem of deafness.
(Extract of music from fifth symphony first movement)
But his mood changes as the symphony continues. In the third movement his despair was transformed into something much more exciting and challenging. It is as if he was refusing to be defeated by his deafness. Listen to the power of the music.
(Extract from fifth symphony third movement)
Beethoven's love of nature was well-known. The countryside calmed and relaxed him and also found its way into his music. On many occasions when he was struggling to finish a piece of music he would go for a long walk to sort out his ideas.
He described this as "working while he walked". These walks found their way in his sixth symphony, called the Pastoral symphony or countryside symphony, which is one of his most popular compositions.
( Extract from the pastoral symphony)
After 1812 his hearing became so bad that he became severely upset. Maybe he felt that nothing good would happen to him again. His musical output almost stopped. But strangely enough, this produced some of his most
emotional music. His ninth and last symphony, called the choral symphony, was his greatest composition. He used a poem by a German poet to express his feelings of hope and joy.
(Extract from last movement of Beethoven's ninth symphony)
But Beethoven's music was not always grand and important. Many of his pieces for the piano are personal and gentle. So we will finish with one of his best-loved piano pieces, the Moonlight Sonata. The first movement describes a peaceful, quiet and beautiful moonlight night
when all troubles have disappeared and only the beauty of nature remains.
(Complete Moonlight Sonata)
SPEAKING TASK
Many people think that Beethoven was always a genius. Other people think he would never have been such a great composer but for his deafness.
Step 1: In pairs discuss:
whether you think a genius is born or is made by circumstances;
whether you think adversity makes one wise or not.
Step 2: Have a class debate. Use the
ideas and examples you have
collected to help you with
your arguments.
Beethoven's life
Born: 1770 Died:1827
Career:
1795: already an important pianist, teacher of music, composer, and giver of concerts

S1: Yes, but I suppose he must always
have had it in him to be a great
composer and the deafness gave
him an opportunity to concentrate
on it. It doesn't mean he wasn't
born a genius -- it just means he did
not develop that skill fully at first.
S2: OK. What other evidence is there
His compositions were good but not
outstanding until the Fifth
Symphony when be put all his
feelings about his deafness into his
music. It was this ability to express
his emotions in music that made him
a genius. That was the result of
circumstances.
S1: Of course you're right but his
compositions were already well-
known. He had the ability.
Concentrating on it made it

WHAT MAKES BEETHOVEN A GENIUS
My idea of a genius is someone who has a great talent but must develop this talent through hard work until it become good enough to produce the work of a genius.
Beethoven was certainly a man like that. He had great talents as a composer of music. He played the piano and was a famous pianist of his day. He had also already begun to compose before he
became deaf. His deafness forced him to concentrate on his composing and that produced some very profound and important music. It made him into a real genius.
The perseverance of Beethoven in the face of his deafness made him into a composer far more important than he would have been without it. Indeed it has been
suggested that his terrible difficulties pushed him into becoming a genius. I would agree with that and so I suggest that geniuses are made not born.

psychological one was to stay

despair. The physical problem was
to stay fit despite a diet consisting

This meant that there were not enough vitamins or minerals and the food was the same day after day.
I think their greatest worry was not
being rescued. They dealt with this
by remaining cheerful, having
musical evenings singing to the

Victor Hugo is one of the most famous French writers of the nineteenth century. He wrote novels, poems, and plays. He was as important to French literature in the nineteenth century as Shakespeare is to English literature in the sixteenth century.
Victor Hugo (1802-1885)
He was very involved in the politics of his day and wrote many stories showing bow difficult life was for poor people in France at that time. His most famous books are Les Miserables and The Hunchback of Notre Dame.

Christopher Reeve (1952-2004)
He was an actor in films and became famous when he played Superman in a series of films about that cartoon character. However, disaster struck when he fell off his horse and became paralyzed from the neck down.
He bravely tried to cope with his illness and to help others with the same condition. He gave money for research into his condition but although he improved, Christopher Reeve was never able to walk or take part in films as an ordinary actor again.
Sima Qian (about 145 BC-87 BC)
Sima Qian was one of the first imperial historians who tried to write a comprehensive history of China. He collected documents of people who had worked for earlier emperors and reported their conclusions. He showed that there can be two interpretations of the same
Reign when he reported two different ideas about the methods and achievements of Emperor Qin.
Eventually he offended the Han Emperor Wu when he supported a disgraced general. For this offence he was punished and disgraced. Instead of committing suicide to save his honour, Sima Qian continued his work on the history of China. His writings have been invaluable for later scholars.
Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890)
Vincent van Gogh was Dutch but lived most of his adult life in France. He became a painter and met many important Impressionist painters such as Monet and Pissaro. He had a very difficult personality which made it difficult for him to get on with others.
He cut off the lower half of his left ear and give to a prostitute. As he grew older Vincent became more and more odd and he put all his feelings and emotions into his paintings. He used intense colours and violent brushstrokes to make his paintings very powerful and emotional.
Yet he only sold one painting in his lifetime. Nevertheless, he bas become one of the most important of the Post-Impressionist painters.
Frederic Chopin ( 1810-1849)
Chopin grew up in Warsaw, Poland but moved to France in 1831. He lived there for the rest of his life. He was a very gifted pianist who earned his living as a performer and teacher.
However he was also a talented composer and wrote many important ballades and rondos for the piano.
His ambitious style of playing and composition influenced many other composers such as Debussy, Liszt, Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninov. He died of tuberculosis (TB) when he was at the height of his fame.(共24张PPT)

The quality of the navigation: Despite terrible seas the navigator checked the ship’s position only three times but managed to arrive safely.
3 He arrived on the wrong side of South Georgia
The perseverance of the party: They crossed the mountains sometimes sliding on their bottoms and arrived safely.
THE RESCUE
As soon as they arrived on Elephant Island, Shackleton decided to go to the island of South Georgia for help. He realized that his men were too ill to last very long without rescue. But this was not an easy task.
Listening text
The seas were very rough and the boat he planned to use was very small. Shackleton, however, felt he could not wait. No ships passed Elephant Island, so he knew that if he wanted to rescue his men he would have to do it himself.
Of course everybody wanted to go with Shackleton but he chose his companions with care. First, and most importantly, he needed a navigator to sail through the dangerous sea to South Georgia. Second, he needed to leave a group behind him that would be cheerful enough to survive till he returned.
So he took the two most difficult and unfriendly members with him.
The journey in the boat was a nightmare. The movement of the boat was so strong that it was almost impossible to check their position. The navigator was only able to use his instruments three times during the trip to South Georgia.
Despite the sea being so rough, he was so good that they reached land safely. If they had missed South Georgia Island, they would have sailed on into the open sea and there would have been no rescue.
Unfortunately Shackleton landed on the wrong side of South Georgia and had to climb over the mountains to get help.
That was a terrible journey too. At one point they had to slide down a mountain on their bottoms(屁股)! When they arrived at the whaling station, Shackleton immediately arranged for a boat to return to Elephant Island.
But the seas were even fiercer so they could not get near it. It took another three months of trying before they reached the twenty-two men left behind, Shackleton grew very anxious and looked extremely old and worried during this time.
He was only happy when he arrived back on Elephant Island and found everyone still alive. As for the men, they began crying with relief when they saw him walking through the water to rescue them.

1 What made Charles Darwin change his
mind and explain his new theory
After twenty years Charles Darwin changed his mind and explained his new theory because another biologist also had the same idea. The two of them worked together.
2 What was the public reaction to his book
The Origin of Species
The public reaction to the new theory was very fierce. (Everybody was forced to take sides in the debate between the biologists and the Christian Church. Even the Prime Minister of the day, Benjamin Disraeli, was asked his opinion. He said "Is man an ape or an angel Now I am on the side of the angels.")
4 How did he handle the criticism
He particularly upset all the followers of the Christian church who believed that the Bible came directly from God and therefore every word must be true.
He handled the criticism with tact and patience.
3 Who did he upset Why did he upset
them
The year is 1860. Fred Jones (F J) is interviewing Charles Darwin (CD) for a newspaper.
WHERE DID HUMANS COME FROM
Listening text
FJ: Hello, Mr Darwin, I'm your
interviewer, Fred Jones. Today I'm
very glad you've come from
London to talk to me. Now, Mr
Darwin, I hear you have a new
theory. What is it
CD: My theory of evolution states that
all animals originally came from
other earlier species. It took
millions of years. In the old idea,
the Bible assumed that God made
all creatures and plants in six days.
FJ: I see. What about human beings
CD: Well. I think people come from
monkeys.
FJ: That must've upset Christians, I
suppose.
CD: Indeed, it upset all the Christians
who believe that God made animals
including people in six days.
FJ: Why did you change your mind in
1858 and publish your idea nearly
twenty years after you thought of
it
I knew there would be a lot of
trouble with the Christian church.
So I spent twenty years collecting
evidence that my theory was correct.
CD: Well, in that year an unknown
biologist wrote to me with the same
idea. So I knew that I couldn't keep
quiet any longer. But I wanted to be
fair. So the two of us explained our
ideas together in an important
meeting in London.
The next year I published On
The Origin of Species where I
explained all my ideas fully and
included all my evidence.
F J: Did many people think you were
wrong
CD: Yes. It was as bad as I had feared.
Church leaders thought I was
wrong and told everyone to ignore
my ideas. They said I was a bad
Christian. Political leaders took
sides. Many of them called me bad
names and thought my ideas were
F J: What did you do
CD: I tried to behave well. For
example: one day a girl asked me
if I believed our ancestors were
monkeys. I said I did. Then she
asked where she came from.
shocking. My family suffered a lot. It made my wife very upset.
I looked at her She was very
beautiful. "I'd like to think that you
came from a particularly beautiful
family of monkeys." I said. She
laughed.
FJ: It sounds as if you dealt with the
criticism well. Were you ever sorry
that your idea was made public
CD: Sometimes. But I knew that my
observations over twenty years
proved my idea was correct.
F J: So, twenty years of collecting
evidence was a good example of
perseverance and a true
commitment to your theory. Thank
you for talking to us.... (fade out)
