课件28张PPT。Trains Go Faster!Lesson 32 Go with Transportation!Unit 6 同学们,上一课学习的单词你们都掌握了吗?现在大家来检验一下,点击下面的音频开始听写吧!What do you think of trains? THINK ABOUT IT
·How do you usually travel to other cities?
·Talk about your first time taking a train. In the 1700s,many scientists worked on steam engines. In the 1760s?,a scientist in England found a way to put steam engines and wheels together. Soon people had a new type oftransportation:the steam train.
In 1804,the first train engine was born? in England.
It travelled only about fifteen kilometres in two hours. In 1825,the first passenger railway opened. The Rocket was the most famous early engine.
During? the 1830s,countries all over the world started to build railways. Fifty years later many countries had railways. People built many train stations to help passengers get on and off the trains easily. Early trains were slow by today's standards. The Rocket had a top speed? of only 45 kilometres per hour. Today's high -speed trains can travel at about 300 kilometres per hour. The fastest trains can go about 500 kilometres an hour.
Maybe trains will have no wheels in the future. Maybe they will ride on air. That would be amazing!
