His mother opened the door for him and asked why he did not open the door himself. Tony was afraid that his mother would blame him, so he told a lie (谎言). That evening Tony felt very unhappy and was afraid to speak to his mother. He didn’t even want to play with his brother.
He sat on the doorstep with his dog, Ruby. He looked at the sky and saw the big round moon. He thought that it was looking down upon (瞧不起) him, because it knew about the lie. He ran down the street to get away from it, but it kept following him. Then he went into the house secretly and went to bed, but the moon looked at him through the window.

When I was 25, I opened a “Professional Training School”. One of my first students was a forty-year-old woman named Eleanor. She was in my mother’s age group. By taking my self-development course, she had made up her mind to make some changes.
Our course began with the instruction in proper behaviour and continued with healthy diet, taking exercise, choosing clothes, make-up, public speaking, etc. We taught the students to show themselves perfectly, and to express their natural beauty. Eleanor tried her best during the training. Her sad, tired attitude changed into a smart, interested and curious way. She changed her hair style and make-up with up-to-date fashion (最新潮流). She even bought some new clothes that would bring color to her skin and hair.
At the end of the course, Eleanor pulled me aside. With stars in her eyes she said, “Betty, guess what ” Not having any idea what she was up to, I replied simply, “What, Eleanor ” As happy as a child, she said, “My husband has invited me to lunch!”
It was diffi cult for me to understand at that time. Then I just said, “Well, that’s really nice, Eleanor.” Her words were serious and she told me that her husband hadn’t invited her to lunch in the last twenty years.
40. When the writer saw Eleanor at the fi rst time, she felt Eleanor was ______.
A. old and out of fashion
B. young and clever
C. strong and successful
D. bright and curious
41. The “Professional Training School” helped people ______.

C. get along with others D. improve themselves
42. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage

D. Eleanor went to the school because of her husband.
43. We can learn from the passage that ______.

B. Eleanor made a lot of friends in the training school
C. Eleanor’s husband was happy with her changes
D. Eleanor’s family was concerned about her classes
C
Christmas is coming, and I can see many people welcome Christmas in their special way in Japan. My students seem to know about some Christmas customs (习俗), but I wonder if they know about the “Christmas spirit” or the spirit of giving. At Christmas time, we give gifts to our friends and family members. We give toys and clothing to families that do not have much money. We give money to organizations that help poor, sick, or lonely people.
Even young children can learn to understand why we often say, “Giving is more important than receiving.” For example, a mother and her child will make something special for Dad and keep it a secret. When Dad opens his gift on Christmas morning, he is surprised and happy. The child learns that making someone happy is just as much fun as, or maybe more fun than, receiving gifts.
Gifts are not always expensive things in pretty boxes. Sometimes, gifts may be a promise to write a letter every week or help with fi xing up grandma’s house. In my family, we often give each other simple gifts that were made by ourselves and most of them cost little or no money. Then, together, we give a gift of money to our favorite charity (慈善团体). These gifts are often more meaningful than gifts that we buy from a store.
44. What does the writer do
A. She’s a repairman.
B. She’s a traveller.
C. She’s a teacher.
D. She’s a saleswoman.
45. What kind of gifts does the writer advise us to give other people
A. Gifts that cost little money.
B. Gifts that make others happy.
C. Gifts that you have made yourself.
D. Gifts that improve the relationship.
46. When the writer gives the Christmas gift to her family, she will choose ______.
A. toys B. clothing C. money D. homemade gifts
47. In the passage, the writer mainly wants to tell us ______.
A. that teaching children to give is important
B. that showing your love is the best gift
C. how to choose the gifts for others
D. how to celebrate the festival in a new way

Street art can be found on buildings, sidewalks, and street signs all over the world.
Many experts say it started in New York City in the 1960s. Young people would spray (喷) their names on walls and trains around the city. This colorful style of writing is also called graffiti (涂鸦). Later, graffiti became a movement expressing the street culture of young people living in big cities. Some artists traveled around the city, making paintings for everyone to see. What they enjoy most is the freedom of expressing themselves which street art permits (允许).

Objectives
To help students learn about the Present Continuous Tense for futurity
To help students discover and use some useful words and expressions
To help students write travel plans
Procedures
1. Warming up by discovering useful words and expressions
Hello everyone. After reading the passage, we have got to know the usage of the words and expressions, but we should do more practice. Now turn to page 20 to find the correct words and expressions from the passage to finish the sentences. You are given two minutes to finish them and discuss with your partners. Two minutes later, check in pairs and then check with the whole class.
2. Reading and finding
Good, you have mastered these words and expressions. Let’s turn to page 17 and look at the questions in Warming up. Underline the verbs in the questions, and pay attention to the verb forms and do some explanations by yourselves.
3. Studying the futurity use of the preset continuous tense
We can see that the verbs are all used in the “-ing” form. They are “the present continuous tense”, but they express future actions or plans. The Present Continuous Tense may be used to denote an action that can be pre-planned or prearranged instead of the future indefinite in colloquial English. But please note that, not all verbs can be used in the “-ing” form to express future actions. Such verbs as come, go, leave, fly, walk, ride, drive, stay, meet, die, see, have, arrive etc. are mainly used in the “-ing” form to express future actions.

To help students use the language by reading, listening, speaking and writing
Procedures
1. Warming up by talking about Tibet
Have you ever been to Tibet Do you want to travel in Tibet Can you tell me something about Tibet
Tibet lies on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau of the southwest border of China. The average height of the whole region is more than 4,000 meters above sea level, for which Tibet is known as “Roof of the World”. The highest peak of Tibet, also the highest in Himalayas and in the whole world, is Everest Peak, which is as high as 8,846.27 meters above sea level. Although a part of China, Tibet has a unique culture of all its own. It is mainly inhabited by Tibetans, a minority nationality of old and mysterious people. Tourist attractions include the Potala Palace in Lhasa, Jokhang Temple, and a number of Buddhist sacred places.Tibet (Xi Zang in Chinese) is to the south of Xin Jiang Uygur Autonomous Region and Qing Hai Province, to the west of Sichuan, to the northwest of Yunnan and to the north of India and Nepal. Its population of 2.3 million people come from a variety of ethnic groups including Tibetan, Han, Monba and Lhota. Its capital city is Lhasa.Northwest Tibet, mainly Qing Hai plateau, is home to a variety of unusual and unique animals. Across the northern expanse of Tibet, you can see vast grasslands where horses, yak and sheep roam freely. The world's lowest valley, the Grand Yarlun-tzanpo River Valley lies in east Tibet.It is freezing cold in most time of the year. Most tourists come to visit Tibet only in the warmest seasons, June, July, August and early September.

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
G: Yes, of course you can. They are
many small villages along the river.
You can stay there if you wish.
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.

A selected English passage for recitation英文精选背诵短文
Why do people travel Well, first of all, I think there are a number of reasons why we travel. The main reason is curiosity. We're curious how other people live, what food they eat. What is the taste of that food How do other people entertain How do they make friends Our nature isn't permanent, and our tastes changes during life cycles. We want to try something new from time to time (new food, new clothes, shoes, perfume and etc.) Our travel can involve new friends and it gives a spark to our routine life. We dream about a trip around the globe as a panacea from our problems. But when we can't afford traveling even inside our own countries it becomes a psychological problem for our mind and body. I wish that all people could travel at least locally, within a region or a state. Traveling gives us a feeling of belonging to this world and our role in the global living!

More than half of the world’s population lives in cities. Traffic and pollution are becoming big problems in big cities all over the world. In cities like Mexico City, Shanghai or Cairo the quality of the air is getting worse every day. In the United States, people spend more time sitting in traffic jams.
Some of the world’s cities have already found the answer to the problem. In Bogota, the capital of Columbia, the government has taken measures to improve the quality of life for the city’s 8 million people. They created over a thousand new parks, a new public transport system, and built hundreds of cycling and walking paths. People who live in the city also joined in making their city one of the most livable (适合居住的) places in South America.
Today city planners around the world are looking for ways to provide more room for living and less room for cars. In America, public transport has increased over 2 % since the mid 1990s — not much but a start. More and more people leave their cars at home and get on buses, trains or even ride a bike to work. Some cities are far better at planning than others. In Amsterdam, for example, only 40 % of the population uses their cars to get to work, 35 % rides a bike while 25% uses public transport. In Paris, about half of the city’s workers drive their cars to work.
For cities in developing countries, the problems have just started. Traffic is getting worse as more and more people can afford to buy a car.
44. The writer listed Mexico City, Shanghai and Cairo as examples of cities of ______.
A. heavy traffic B. air pollution
C. rapid development D. large population
45. What did Bogota do to improve the quality of life for its people
A. It shut down some factories in the city.
B. It introduced a foreign public transport system.
C. It encouraged people to plant trees in the city.
D. It built new parks and a new public transport system.
46. From the third paragraph, we can learn that ______.
A. 35% of the population in Paris rides a bike to work
B. half of the people in Amsterdam drive their cars to work
C. a quarter of the people in Amsterdam use public transport
D. American public transport has increased much since the 1990s
47. What would be the best title of the text
A. Ways to solve traffic jams B. New changes in transport systems
C. People’s new choice in big cities
D. Parks instead of cars for the cities

Gold Coast family holidays are always great fun whether you are from Australia or from abroad. There are beautiful beaches, adventure parks, nature parks and so much more.
There are so many sights to see here. It is a pity to drive in a car and you’ll miss a great part of it. Australia is home to many animals and birds that can only be seen when moving slowly and going into the areas that they live.
When you are on a bicycle, you have the advantage of being able to stop whenever you want to catch sight of (看见) an interesting animal or bird that you have never seen before. It is a quieter mode (方式) of transportation as well, so you might even be able to take a picture. When you are on the beach, you can breathe that clean air and view the beauty of the water and sand. It is a totally different experience from either simply sunbathing or passing it in a car.
There are many choices of hiring (租) a bicycle to experience the Gold Coast attractions. There are stores that will fit a bike perfectly to your size. These bikes for both adults and children are in many styles and colors to please any taste. If you have ever wanted to try a tandem bike (双人单车), now is your chance, because they have those too.
A bicycle hire on Gold Coast is something that everyone should try at least once. This is a wonderful chance for anyone who likes to cycle and it is also a cheap way to travel with your family.
48. You’d better not drive in a car on Gold Coast because ______.
A. you will break the traffic rules B. you will cause much noise
C. you can’t enjoy the beautiful sights well
D. you can’t drive into some parks
49. The following advantages of hiring bikes are mentioned EXCEPT that ______.
A. you can take photos of animals B. it is a cheap way of traveling
C. you can get a clearer sight of animals
D. it is a good way to do sunbathing
50. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A. How to hire bikes on Gold Coast.
B. What kinds of bikes there are in stores.
C. What bikes are the most popular.
D. Who can hire bikes on Gold Coast.
51. What’s the author’s attitude towards a bike hire on Gold Coast

In a small town in France, there was a farmer who lived alone. Every day, he sold a pound of butter to his neighbor, who was a baker (面包师). One day the baker decided to weigh the butter to see if he was getting a pound and after weighing it, he found that he was not. The baker immediately took the farmer to court.
The judge (法官) asked the farmer if he was using any measure. The farmer replied, “I am so poor that I do not have a proper measure, but I do have a scale (天平).” The judge asked, “Then how do you weigh the butter ” The farmer replied, “Long before the baker started buying butter from me, I have been buying bread from him. Every day when I bring home the bread from my neighbor, I put it on the scale and give him the same weight in butter.”
We get back in life what we give to others.
Whenever you take an action, ask yourself this question—Am I giving fair value for the money I hope to make
Honesty and dishonesty become a habit. Some people practice dishonesty and can lie (撒谎) with a straight face. Others lie so much that they do not even know what the truth is any more. But who are they cheating Themselves — rather than anyone else.
52. One day, the baker found that ______.

My family and I are really grateful that you showed us around when we visited London last week. We had a really good time.
Without your help, we couldn’t have had such a wonderful trip because none of us had been to London before. We visited the British Museum and other well-known beautiful buildings, and we had the delicious food there. We enjoyed ourselves very much. We hope we will visit London again.
If you have a chance to come to China, give us a call. We would enjoy having you come for dinner and getting together again.

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 Text
Along 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.

A man named Smith was sitting on his roof during a flood, and the water was up to his feet. Before long a fellow in a canoe passed and shouted, "Can I give you a lift to higher ground "

One summer my friend and I decided to go to Italy for a holiday and we decided to travel there without going through a travel agency. You know, you would be submerged (淹没) in crowds of tourists and lose lots of opportunities to get familiar with the country more closely. We started to think over our trip and managed to come up with a free tour of Italy.
The trip was not very long but it was still very impressive. We look forward to going there again! Of course, we spent lots of time arranging the trip, but it was well worth it! Of course I was afraid that something would go wrong and I was especially anxious about my visa, but everything went quite smoothly in the end.
The most difficult part was getting a visa without an invitation. In the Italian consulate(领事馆), one must hand in some official paper proving that one has a hotel booked for oneself in order to get the visa. Then we had to solve the ticket problem. Airlines often sell cheap tickets and we bought ours far in advance. The next step was to book a hotel. We finally booked a hotel about thirty km away from the heart of Rome and it was the perfect choice for our trip.
Every day we took a train that carried us to the heart of Rome. Our big house, which was surrounded by the forest, was a rare girl for the fresh air and absolute silence, beautiful views, hospitable (好客的) hosts, comfortable living conditions delighted us to no end. Besides this, we were very lucky that our mistress was Russian. She gave us a lot of advice that was of great use. She told us what transport to choose and where the best places to go.
Don’t be afraid to arrange your trip by yourself. It’s not difficult! The only thing I’ll say right now is that we really enjoyed traveling by ourselves. We walked with a map and a guide-book to wherever we wanted and we even met some of our fellow countrymen on the way just two or three times. So, if you’re also planning a "single" trip, don’t forget to take a Russian-Italian phrasebook as people in Italy prefer to speak in their native tongue.

Some time ago I discovered that one of my chairs had a broken leg. I didn’t think there would be any difficulty in getting it mended, as there are a whole lot of antique(古董) shops near my home. So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me. I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception (接待). I was quite wrong. The man wouldn’t even look at my chair.
The second shop, though slightly more polite, was just the same, and the third and the fourth－so I decided that my approach must be wrong.
I entered the fifth shop with a plan in my mind. I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper, "Would you like to buy a chair " He looked it over carefully and said, "Yes, not a bad chair. How much do you want for it, sir " "Twenty pounds," I said. "OK," he said, "I’ll give you twenty pounds." "It’s got a slightly broken leg," I said. "Yes, I saw that, it’s nothing."
Everything was going according to plan and I was getting excited. "What will you do with it " I asked. "Oh, it will be easy to sell once the repair is done." "I’ll buy it," I said. "What do you mean You’ve just sold it to me," he said. "Yes, I know but I’ve changed my mind. I am sorry. I’ll give you twenty-seven pounds for it." "You must be crazy," he said. Then, suddenly the penny dropped. "I know what you want. You want me to repair your chair." "You’re right," I said. "And what would you have done if I had walked in and said, ‘ Would you mean this chair for me ’”. “I wouldn’t have agreed to do it," he said. "We don’t do repairs, not enough money in it and too much trouble. But I’ll mend this for you, shall we say for a fiver " He was a very nice man and was greatly amused (感到有趣) by the whole thing.

35. A. 叶子是在风中飘动。
36. B. 现在分词用作伴随状语。

38. C. 短语 get sb. down 意为“使人泄气； 使人疲倦”。
39.A. 琴声像山涧溪流一样，流进(flow into)“我”的耳畔。
40. A. 短语be lost in (doing) sth. “陷入……之中”。此处指小姑娘正在聚精会神地拉小提琴。
41. B. 结合上下文可知，“我”以前与小姑娘素不相识。
42. C. “我”沉浸在优美的琴声中，不自觉地在风中伫立。
43. C. 从下文可知，“我”并不是听到琴声才下楼，而是因为两人心有灵犀，每次几乎是在小姑娘拉琴的同时，“我”也到了楼下。因此这里应用when。
44. A. 与上文的“生活无趣”相对，琴声让“我”觉得“生活有趣”。
45 D. 从整个句意来看，这里是一个让步状语从句。though表“尽管”，合乎文意。

阅读理解
A《阅读提示》
51.C考查在速读中捕捉有效信息的能力。
52.D对于“死亡”的几种含蓄说法。
53.D对于文中人物进行评价。要求学生在阅读中注意细节描写，进行归纳，并推测作者的描写意图，最后得出结论。
54.B读完短文，让人忍俊不禁，这正体现了行文幽默所具有的感染力。
55.A“你想从我这里得到什么？”即“你想让我怎样帮你？”用上帝的这句话作文章题目，正是作者要表达的主题：一个人这样愚蠢和固执，连上帝也无法帮他。
B《阅读提示》本文是一篇游记，讲述了作者和他的朋友自己策划的意大利之行。文章介绍了旅游前的准备工作，如自己取得签证，还有意大利的住宿条件，突出了自己策划意大利之游的优点以及感受。
56.A 原因判断题。根据第二段 “The trip was not very long but it was still very impressive. We look forward to going there again!”结合第四段的内容以及最后一段中的“The only thing I’ll say right now is that we really enjoyed traveling by ourselves.”可知，意大利之行他们玩得很尽兴，给他们留下了深刻的印象，所以想再去意大利，因此选A。
57.B 细节理解题。根据第三段的第一句“The most difficult part was getting a visa without an invitation.”可知，最难的事情是在没有邀请函的情况下向意大利大使馆申请签证，因此选择B。A、C、D虽然文中都涉及到了，但是都不符合题干。
58.B 段落大意题。根据第四段对旅馆周围环境、交通情况以及该旅馆的好处的介绍，可知作者在第四段主要讲对旅馆满意的原因。
59.A 主旨大意题。文章第一段第二句讲述了他们不愿意随旅行社出游的原因，B项提到了；文章第二、三两段讲述作者怎么去准备他的出行的，所以Ｃ项提到了；根据最后一段的“We walked with a map and a guide-book to wherever we wanted…”可知Ｄ项提到了。纵观全文，作者并没有提到他为什么去意大利旅游的原因。
60.C 推理判断题。根据文章的主要内容，尤其是第一段说不想在旅游团的拥挤的人群中，也不想错过更多亲近意大利的机会，以及最后一段的“Don’t be afraid to arrange your trip by yourself.”可以推断出应该选择C。其余选项没有依据。
C《阅读提示》
61.D 短文第一段的第二句I didn’t think there would be any difficulty in getting it mended, as there are a whole lot of antique shops near my home.说明作者到附近的古董店是请人修理椅子的断腿。
62.D 根据上、下文分析，在前四个古董店里，作者直接说明来意－－请人修理椅子的断腿，但一一被拒绝，而在第五家古董店里，作者说要把椅子卖给古董店，说明作者所使用的方法与前不同，故approach一词应指way of doing things。
63.C 文中the penny dropped是一个习语，意指"目的已达到，话已听明白"。从古董店老板的话I know what you want. You want me to repair your chair.说明古董店老板知道了作者的真正意图。
64.A 古董店老板愿付给作者20英镑卖下这把断腿的椅子，而作者说他愿意以27英镑买回，考生易受文中这两个数字的误导。其实不然，古董店老板的话But I’ll mend this for you, shall we say for a fiver 其中的单词fiver是英国俚语，票面为五镑的钞票，所以作者要付五英镑。
65.C 选项中smart与clever意义相近，从文尾句He was a very nice man and was greatly amused by the whole thing.可知古董店老板对作者这种方法很赞赏。
D《阅读提示》
66 D从两位运动员的谈话可以看出，她们之间既有竞争，更有友谊。
67. D细节判断题。根据文章第二段可以找到所需答案。
68. A该题为计算题。根据第三段的两个数字47岁和32年后的回归，可以计算出当时她15岁。
69. C根据“It seemed as if we had long been good friends.”一句可以知道，it在此指代的是两者之间的友谊。
70. B从她的谈话中，特别是“She had a lot to share with all of us at that camp.”一句话，我们可以推断出她向老运动员学到了很多东西。

After that we plan to visit the botanical garden on the Quanshan Hill and have a picnic on the top of it. So please bring lunch and some drinking water with you.
Our school bus will leave at 7:20. Please gather at our school gate at 7:00 a.m.
Those who want to take part in the activity should sign up for it at the Students’ Union before Thursday.

OK, everyone. May I please have your attention I’m Bill Smith, the director of the school play for this year. It’s a great pleasure to have you as assistants to help organize the play. I’m sending around a form for you to put down some information on how we can get in touch with you, so please put your names and phone numbers down. Also please write down the performances that you will be able to help with. I realize that not everyone can come to each performance, but the more you attend, the better. However, you should also keep in mind that we will need a lot of time, and we may end up staying quite late into the evening.
If you have any special skills, it would be good for you to write those down on the paper as well. In particular, we need two lighting and sound people. We have hired one full-time lighting man , but one person can’ t do everything. We need several people to help out setting up the lights.
Once you have all marked down any special skills you might have to offer, please return the form to me. At our next meeting on Tuesday, we’ll begin talking about all the different jobs. While you’ re waiting for the sheet to get passed around, I’ll be happy to answer any questions that you have today.
Bill Smith wants some people as 17 to help organize the play. They will be given 18 to write down some information about themselves. Bill needs two 19 people in particular. And they will talk about all the different jobs at their 20 on Tuesday.

第一部分
About the topic and the structures单元话题和结构 本单元的话题是“Travel Journal/ 旅行日志”。通过本单元的学习让学生思考什么是？为什么旅游？旅游，我们走遍五湖四海去找大地的爱；旅游，找那心的根，找那心的源，找出生命所在。本单元中学生还将学习使用“现在进行时表未来”。《金色教案》教学设计在单元课时划分上与课本保持一致，即“阅读课、知识课、运用课三课时/三课型划分”。但在实际教学过程中，我们建议教师依据学生基础、教学条件、学校安排等因素，对课本、对《金色教案》教学设计重新划分课时，裁剪、拼接使用教案提供的材料，以便“物尽所用”，达到最佳教学效果。教师也可以参照教案提出的“实际教学过程课时划分建议”进行教学。
Period 1Reading 阅读课 Warming Up “热身”的目的是为阅读在一定程度上作好话题、词汇和结构的准备，激发学生相关的背景知识和学习兴趣。对此教案提供了“讨论”、“看图说话”和“问答”三种不同的“热身”设计供教师选用。实际操作中还需要教师动用诸如板书、投影等辅助手段，以达到最佳教学效果。Pre-reading要求学生发表自己对人们如何利用江河的主观看法，为阅读短文做心理的铺垫和知识的准备。中国的河流有5万多条(流域大于100平方公里)，最重要的河流有7条，即松花江、辽河、海河、黄河、淮河、长江和珠江。另外，我国还有黑龙江、雅鲁藏布江、澜沧江、怒江、红河、伊犁河、额尔齐斯河等出境河流和边界河流，一般水量较丰。Reading是篇记叙文，记叙了Wang Kun和他的伙伴策划一次沿江骑自行车旅行的事情。骑车出游的乐趣并不是自驾车可以代替的，相约三五知己，结伴同游，一路上可以随意停留，或在林中小憩，或于古迹驻足，轻松悠闲，不亦乐乎。本文虽然是记叙文，但是语言难度较大，教师可以按照教案提供的阅读教学模式引导学生从形式和内容两方面阅读文章、理解文章、提高对旅行对认识，对祖国大好河山的认识。
Period 2Learning about language 知识课 Learning about language 首先要求学生利用录音机朗读课文，强化学生对本单元重点词汇、短语、结构和话题的掌握；然后要求学生完成课本第20、21页提供的“词法”“句法”练习。接下来系统学习和总结“直接引语和间接引语”。
Period 3Using language运用课 Using language 以谈论拉萨导入本课后，重点是帮助学生阅读“顺湄公河而下”。 湄公河源头在我国青海唐古拉山，全长4880公里，在我国内河道里程长2161公里，从勐腊县南腊河口244号界桩处出境后，澜沧江始称湄公河，流经缅甸、老挝、泰国、柬埔寨、越南5个国家，最后在越南胡志明市附近注入太平洋。其后提供的听、说、写活动也是围绕湄公河展开的。
实际教学过程课时划分建议
Period 1 将Warming Up、 Pre-reading、Reading和Comprehending整合在一起上一节“阅读课”。
Period 2 将Learning about language 和Workbook中的 USING WORDS AND EXPRESSIONS、USING STRUCTURES 整合在一起上一节“语言知识课”。
Period 3 将Using language 设计为一节包括听说读写单项技能或组合技能训练的“综合技能课（一）”。
Period 4 将Workbook 的READING AND LISTENING和TALKING整合在一起上一节“听说课”。
Period 5 将Workbook 的LISTENING TASK、READING AND WRITING TASK和 SPEAKING TASK整合为一节“综合技能课（二）”。

教学资源说明
Section 1Background 背景 围绕单元话题“游记”教案提供了若干趣味性背景材料。这些材料既可以作为教师教学参考材料为教师所用，也可以直接或改写、重组后作为课堂内外的拓展性阅读材料呈现给学生。
Section 2Explanation解析 重点针对“阅读课型”中的课文难句，教案提供了详尽的，就句论句的解析和翻译，并且以解析的焦点话题为线索，进行了一定的归纳、辨析和总结，以帮助教师更好地实施“语言形式”的教学。
Section 3Vocabulary词汇 按照课本单元词汇表顺序，教案重点提供动词、短语搭配的讲解。所提供的例句，经典、地道、实用、易懂，完全可以直接用于教学。
第三部分
教学测评说明
围绕单元词法、句法项目，教案提供了长短不一的“单元教学测评”，并备有参考答案供教师使用。有些测评题目直接源于历年高考试卷，更具有说服力和实用性。Section 2 Notes to difficult sentences from Unit 3
Travel journal
1….and then she persuaded me to buy one.后来她说服我买了一个。
句子中的persuade属于“带不定式作宾语补语”的动词。
此类动词还有： advise, cause, allow, drive, encourage, expect, force, intend, invite, permit, tell, trust, urge, persuade, remind, teach, want, warn, get, ask, forbid, beg, require, tempt, enable, lead, instruct 等, 以及表示 “情感状态”的动词 love, like, prefer, hate 等，后面跟带to的不定式作补语。例如:

2. Wang Wei soon got them interested in cycling too. 王威很快就让他们对骑车旅行感兴趣了。

3.…she insisted that she organize the trip properly………她坚持她恰当组织这次旅行……
动词insisted后面跟的是虚拟语气形式的宾语从句。

I wish she would be on my side. 我希望她能站在我一边。

He insisted that all of us should be there on time by any means. 他坚持要我们大家想尽办法按时去那儿。

The teacher suggested that we (should) clean the blackboard after class. 老师建议我们课后把黑板擦了。
He ordered that the students wash the clothes every week by themselves. 他要求学生每周都要自己洗衣服。

Soon, beautiful swans (天鹅) came to the clear spring, and the village became a popular attraction for visitors.

In 1980, he happened to discover this cave, immediately he and his family members decided to live in there. Chen thought the cave could be a temporary（临时的）living place, but it never occurred to him that it could be his home in the next 28 years. Chen recalled that the first couple of days were the most difficult period, “I put up some wooden boards for a gate, but they were all blown away by wind that same night.”
Chen has two sons and a daughter, and they all left the cave after they got married. Now Chen’s old friends once in a while visit him in his cave drinking and playing Chinese chess. For Chen, the most enjoyable thing is to raise bees and grow kinds of plants.

88岁高龄的英国女作家多丽丝·莱辛获得了2007年的诺贝尔文学奖。然而，诺贝尔奖的荣誉并不能让她感到高兴，反而给她带来了很多烦恼。为什么呢？
Nobel Prize-winning author Doris Lessing said winning the Noble Prize in 2007 had been a “bloody disaster”.
The increased media (媒体) interest in her has meant that writing a full novel was next to impossible, she said.
Lessing, 88, also said she would probably be giving up writing novels. Her latest book is the partly fictional memoir（虚幻小说）entitled Alfred and Emily. Since her Nobel winning she has been constantly in demand, she said. “All I do is to give interviews and spend time being photographed.”
Speaking about her writing, she said: “It has stopped. I don’t have any energy any more.” Lessing is the 11th woman to win the Nobel Prize for literature in its 106-year history. Her best known works include The Golden Notebook and The Diaries of Jane Somers(《萨默斯的日记》).
She also recalled that, in the 1960s, she had been told that the Nobel Academy’s judges did not like her and she would never win. Ill-health prevented her from attending the prize ceremony in Stockholm, Sweden.
Instead the Swedish Ambassador to London, Staffan Carlsson, presented the prize to her in the UK. He told her she was being “crowned with a prize you have long deserved（应得）”.
Lessing was born in Iran and moved to Rhodesia—now Zimbabwe—as a child before settling in England in 1949.
Her first novel The Grass is singing was published the following year. Altogether she has written more than 50 novels, plays and collections of short stories.
52. Why did Lessing say her winning the Nobel Prize was “a bloody disaster”
A. She was too excited to go on writing her novels.
B. Her peaceful life was disturbed by the increased media.
C. Many people came to ask her for advice on writing.
D. The Swedish Ambassador often came to present the prize.
53. Lessing didn’t go to Stockholm to get the prize because ____.
A. she thought of the prize as a “bloody disaster”
B. too many interviews prevented her from going there
C. she didn’t want to accept the prize
D. her poor health stoped her from going there
54. From the passage we know that the Nobel Prize for literature was set up ____.
A. in 1901 B. in 1921 C. in the 60s D. in 1949
55. Lessing was given the Noble Prize because ____.
A. she was an 88-year-old woman B. she was a famous writer
C. she did a lot to the literature
D. she is the oldest writer in the world

Dear Mary,
How are you doing these days
My family and I are really grateful that you showed us around when we visited London last week. We had a really good time.
Without your help, we couldn’t have had such a wonderful trip because none of us had been to London before. We visited the British Museum and other well-known beautiful buildings, and we had the delicious food there. We enjoyed ourselves very much. We hope we will visit London again.
If you are in our city in the coming months, give us a call. We would enjoy having you come for dinner and getting together again.
Yours,
