二、阅读理解。

Many expressions that we use in American English come from movies and books.Today we will explore expressions from Lewis Carroll's famous book Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.This book is better known as Alice in Wonderland.21世纪教育网版权所有
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland came out in 1865.The story is about a young girl falling for a long time down a rabbit hole.When she finally lands,she finds herself in a strange world.
In this strange world,there are some of the most popular characters in children's books.Many of them,and other expressions from the book,have found their way into American English.
The first character Alice meets is the White Rabbit.The White Rabbit is not a usual rabbit.Alice chases him,and that is where her adventures begin.【来源:21cnj*y.co*m】
In English,“chasing a white rabbit” means chasing the impossible,a dream.“Following the white rabbit” means following a quite unreal clue,and it leads you to find yourself in the middle of an unusual situation.This situation often challenges your thoughts and changes your life.And usually we use “fall down the rabbit hole” to mean we got interested in something to turn your attention away.We lose ideas about time.It often happens by accident and is about something not that meaningful.【版权所有:21教育】
Later in the story,Alice is the guest at a tea party—a crazy tea party!There she meets the March Hare.The Hares seems to be truly crazy.To be “mad as a March Hare” means that someone is completely mad,or crazy.21教育名师原创作品
Using expressions from popular books can add a special flavor to your English.And when used properly,they also show you have a deeper understanding of the culture of the English language.I'm Shirley Carter.Thanks for listening.

Should We Be Star Fans?
Nowadays,more and more teenagers become star fans.They have their favorite stars and regard the stars as their heroes.Should we be star fans?A survey of 45 students in our class shows our different ideas.2·1·c·n·j·y
Two thirds of us think it's good to be star fans.They say it can make our after-school life colorful.What's more,we can learn from some excellent stars.However,the rest of the students don't think we should be star fans.They say it's a waste of time and money.And it will have a bad influence on schoolwork.They think we should adore great people instead of pop stars.2-1-c-n-j-y
In my opinion,it is natural that we become star fans.But we should make sure that being star fans won't influence our studies. 【出处:21教育名师】
