Yes. The journey begins at an altitude of more than 5,000 meters, where it is hard to breathe and very cold.Who do you think was right about the trip? Why? I think Wang Kun is right, because if it is too cold and too high, the trip will be hard. People will have some difficulty in breathing at a high altitude. Wherever we go we need an atlas so that we will not lose our way.The main idea of the text The passage tells us that no success in life merely happens by describing my sister’s and my dream-taking a bike trip and preparations for the trip.

At night, you can sleep in some small _________ by the river.searockswaterfallvillagesOn the way to meet their cousins, the two travellers see a girl (G) walking along the road. Wan Kun (WK) stops to speak to her. Listening TextWK: Hello!
G: Hello! Are you travelers? Where are
you going? WK: Yes, we are. We’re following the
Mekong River from its start to where
it joins the sea. We’ve been all
through China and now we are going
to follow the river in Laos.G: I come from Laos. That’s our most
important river. Do you know that it even
appears on our national flag.
WK: Really?
G: Yes. We use the river for everything
including washing, fishing and moving
things around the country. We would be
lost without it. It’s better than a road.WK: Well, I suppose that’s why I’ve
seen boats going up and down-
they’re transporting goods and people.
G: Yes. We call it “the sea of Laos”
because it is so useful and we are not
close to the see.WK: How interesting! In Tibet the
river was called “The water of the
rocks” and in Vietnam it is known
as “the river of the nine dragons”.
Those names sound so beautiful.G: Well, the Mekong River is very beautiful, especially when it enters Laos from Tibet. It goes through so many lovely places with mountains and thick forests. The scenery can take you breath away.WK: I never realized that! In Tibet it
was all waterfalls and rapids.
G: There are other beautiful sights
along the Mekong River in our
country. They include temples,
caves and a waterfall. It is a protected
area so you know it’s very special.WK: Can we sleep by the river?

They fish in the river and you can
eat some wonderful soup there.WK: We’ve already seen many different
kinds of animals, plants and birds along
the riverbank. We were happy to see
them.
G: Well, there are many other things to discover about the Mekong River in Laos. WK: Thank you so much for telling us so many things. Goodbye.
G: Goodbye.Thank you!课件21张PPT。Unit 3WorkbookListening1 Discuss what do you know about
Laos and go over the exercises
below before listening.2. Listen and tick the words you hear on
the tape. 3. Listen again and answer these questions
in pairs. Which border of Laos is made by the Mekong River?Most of its western border is made by the Mekong River.2. What did Wang Kun and his sister see when they cycled across the plains?As they cycled across the plains where rice grew, they saw many low mountains covered in trees.3. Which is the best season to travel to
Laos? Why?Autumn was the best season to travel to Laos. Because it was cool and dry at that time so there was no need to worry about floods along the river.4. What did the river sound like?
5. How did they go to Vientiane after
lunch?We met Dao Wei and Yu Hang in Dali. They were glad to join us for the second week of our journey down the great river. Before we set out, we went to a small outdoor cafe and told them about what we had seen in Tibet. Listening TextAlong the way, children dressed in long wool coats stopped to look at us. I told them how it was so cold in the late evening that the water in our bottles froze. The lakes shone like glass in the moonlight. Few trees could be seen. I said we were so high in the mountains that we cycled through clouds. In the valleys, colorful butterflies flew around us. We saw many yaks and sheep eating green grass. That night we were too tired to make camp, so we slept in an inn for truck drivers. They told us many wonderful stories about life in this part of China.
The next day we went across the border into Laos. Most of its western border is made by the Mekong River. Laos, we learned, has the smallest number of people of any country in Southeast Asia. Much of the world knows little about it. As we cycled across the plains where rice grew, we could see many low mountains covered in trees. We had planned our trip well. We were told that autumn was the best time to be traveling here and it was true. It was cool and dry so there was no need to worry about floods along the river.Reading task Part 6
The end of the journeyRead Part 6 of Wang Kun’s Journal on the next page. Find out the similarities and differences among Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam and fill in the form.1. Do children in Cambodia have a good education?

Mekong River in Phnom Penh. 4. Which country is larger, Cambodia or Vietnam? Vietnam is larger. Vietnam has almost
seven times the population of Cambodia. 5. How many times did the farmer grow a new rice crop every year? Four times.HomeworkTry to write a travel journal
