SUBJECT：4Gran Christine The lives of children in Victorian BritainDear Christine，
You asked me for help about your school project—the lives of children in Victorian Britain. I was also interested. I searched online and found out? the following.魔法记忆In Victorian Britain, thousands of people came to the cities to work in the factories. Instead of the green, open countryside, people lived in very small houses, very close to each other, with no space for children to play. Families in those days were quite big. Often, there were four or five children in one family, and they all had to sleep in houses of just two rooms. Sometimes, a whole street had to share one outside toilet.
Can you imagine that?
Most of the big cities were dirty and unhealthy. The pollution from factories filled the air. People put their rubbish outside in the streets. As a result?， there were many illnesses.魔法记忆And life was harder for children in those times. They didn't always go to school, because they had to work instead. Many children started work in factories when they were only four or five years old. They worked twelve hours a day in dangerous jobs for very little money. Many were hurt in accidents with machines.
I hope this is helpful. Write to me if you need more information.
With love，

a result, we had to walk home.

步行回家。 辨析as a result和as a result of 考向【难点】He was late________the heavy snow.
A．result B．as a result
C．as a result of D．result from典例 C【点拨】as a result of 相当于because of, 后跟名词(短语)、代词等；由句中的“the heavy snow”可知应选C。Read the email again. Find sentences that tell us：
1．There was not enough living space for people.
2．Most of the big cities were dirty and unhealthy.
3．Life was harder for children in those times.

She started school when she was eight years old and left when she was fourteen. She didn’t go to university. She started work after she left school. She worked very hard in a factory. She went to work at eight o’clock in the morning and finished at six o’clock in the evening. She worked six or even seven days a week and had only a few holidays. She got married when she was eighteen and had a baby the following year. She had four children. She continued working until she was fifty years old. My mother started school when she was six years old. At eighteen, she went to university. She started work when she was twenty-two. She works as a teacher.

The speaker's grandmother and mother have lived very different lives. Her grandmother had a much bigger family...Cars
The modern car has changed life a great
deal. Before the invention of the car, people had to travel by rail, on horseback or by horse-drawn carriage，or on foot. Using horses for travel was slow, and of course walking was even slower.Cars allow people to travel long distances quickly, in comfort and convenience.Around the worldThe car also solved an enormous problem caused by using horses for transport in cities: manure！There were so many horses in large cities that it was almost impossible to get rid of the manure. Modern people are used to the idea that cars cause pollution, but the first cars actually made cities cleaner!8Module task: Organising a debate
Work in groups. Read the motion of the debate.
Health is more important than wealth.
Now decide who is for the motion and who is against it. You can use some of the following ideas：
For：
·Without health, wealth means nothing.
·You can enjoy life better if you are healthy.
Against：
·It is hard to be healthy without wealth.
·You can enjoy life better if you are wealthy. 9Prepare your arguments. Give examples to support
your ideas.10Hold the debate.
·Those for the motion give their opinions.
·Those against the motion give their opinions.
·Take turns to say what you think about each other's arguments.11Discuss and find out whether most people are for or against the motion. 本节课主要学习了以过去生活和现在生活的不同为主要内容的邮件，掌握了知识点think of…as，find out，as a result的用法，做了练习题并进行了语言练习。一、用所给词的适当形式填空1．(铜仁)With the help of my P．E. teacher, I run ________
