外研版英语九下 Module 4.2 Rules and suggestions Unit 2
单项选择题
I have a rule for travel, never carry a map. I prefer to ask for directions.
Foreign visitors are often puzzled in Japan because most streets there don’t have names. In Japan, people use landmarks instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.”
In the country of the American Midwest, usually there are not many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat. In many places there are no towns or buildings with miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distance. In Kansas (堪萨斯州), for example, people will say, “Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile.”
People in Los Angeles, California have no idea of distance on the map. They measure(测量) distance by telling time. “How far away is the post office?”you ask.“Oh,”they answer, “it’s about five minutes from here.”You say, “Yes, but how many miles away is it?” They don’t know.
People in Greece (希腊) sometimes do not even try to give directions because few visitors understand the Greek language. Instead of giving you the direction, a Greek will often say, “Follow me.” Then he’ll lead you through the streets of the city to the post office.
Sometimes a person doesn’t know the answer to your question. A New Yorker might say, “Sorry, I have no idea.” But in Yucatan, Mexico (墨西哥), no one answers “I don’t know”. People in Yucatan think that “I don’t know” is not polite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong one. A visitor can get very, very lost in Yucatan!
One thing will help you everywhere. You might not understand a person’s words, but maybe you can understand his body language. He or she will usually turn and then point in the correct direction. Go in that direction, and you may find the post office!

知识点一 On the first evening, the three of us were tired after walking for
about eight hours. We soon fell asleep.
In the middle of the night, I heard a strange noise outside. But
when I looked out of the tent, there was nothing there.
In the morning, I got up to make breakfast. The bag of food was
open.
“Bears,” said Joe. “We should hang the food in a tree tonight.”
知识点一the 用在数词前, 表示特指。

dinner together tonight.
e.g. There are 10 people in the library and eight of them are women.

e.g. I went to bed at ten last night, but I still didn't go to sleep/
fall asleep at twelve. I only slept 5 hours.知识点一 Later that day, we stopped in a beautiful field by a stream.We
put up the tent and fell asleep.
During the night, the bears came again.This time they took the food from the tree.
“It wasn't high enough. Bears can climb trees. They can smell
food from a long way away,” said Ben.
“We must keep the camp clean,” I said. “Bears might think our rubbish is food.”
知识点一 “OK, let' s tidy up and move on. And we should make lots of
noise too. If they know where we are, they may not come any closer,”
said Joe.
“But if you see a bear,” said Ben, “you mustn' t make any sudden
moves or make a sound. And above all, you mustn' t run. No one can
run faster in the forest than a bear. And remember, we don' t have a
gun to keep us safe!”
That night, we went to sleep... or we tried to.
知识点一 The next day, we stopped at eleven o' clock for a break.While the others were resting, I went for a walk in the forest.
Suddenly, I saw a baby bear playing with some sticks and stones. He looked so soft and friendly, and I remember thinking, “If I reach out, I can just touch him.”
There was a loud noise behind me.
知识点一see sb./sth. doing sth. 表示“看到某人正在做某事或某事正在发生”。
e.g. I saw him crossing the road.

I remembered inviting him this morning, but he was too busy
to come.reach out 伸出（手臂）
e.g. The monkey reached out a hand for the banana.知识点一 I stood very still. I didn' t even turn my head.There was another
loud noise. The baby bear looked up, and ran towards me. I turned
pale and he ran past me into the woods.
I was still for a few minutes. Then slowly I turned round, and I
saw the baby bear and his huge mother walking away.
I ran back to my friends. I have never run so fast.
For the next ten days, every time there was a sudden noise, my
blood went cold.
知识点一still adj. 静止的，不动的
e.g. I think it' s very hard for kids to stay still.
every time 表示“每次……, 每当……”
在句中引导一个状语从句
