本單元的中心話題是 “english language and its development, different kinds of english”.通過對世界英語這一話題的探討,加強學生對英語語言的了解,對當代語言特別是英語發(fā)展趨勢的了解.世界在發(fā)展,時代在前進,語言作為交流的工具,也隨著時代的發(fā)展而變化.由于英語在世界上的廣泛使用,它不斷地吸收,、交融,、容納、創(chuàng)新,這就形成了各種各樣帶有國家,、民族,、地區(qū)特色的英語.沒有人們認為的那種唯一的標準英語。盡管如此,，我們還是要通過本課文的學習讓同學們感受,、了解美國英語、澳大利亞英語,、印度英語,、新加坡英語等都有自己的規(guī)律和慣用法，和不同的發(fā)音規(guī)律,。

1．4 comprehending主要是檢測學生對課文基本內容的理解程度,。

1．5 learning about the language主要通過各種練習幫助學生重溫本單元前幾個部分所學的新單詞和短語,，同時也通過新的例子展現了美國英語、英國英語的差異,，并著重介紹了本單元的語法項目（request & command and indirect speech）,。

1．6 using language其中的reading and talking主要介紹了當今世界各地各國說英語有自己的特色,，即便是美國東西部、南北部,，說話均有所不同,。為幫助培養(yǎng)跨文化意識，可以讓學生學完課文后討論中國的方言,，使他們感受到本國的文化差異。

高中英語必修1 課文翻譯(人教新課標)

第一單元 友誼

reading 安妮最好的朋友

你是不是想有一位無話不談能推心置腹的朋友呢,？或者你是不是擔心你的朋友會嘲笑你，會不理解你目前的困境呢,？安妮·弗蘭克想要的是第一種類型的朋友,，于是她就把日記當成了她最好的朋友,。

安妮在第二次世界大戰(zhàn)期間住在荷蘭的阿姆斯特丹。她一家人都是猶太人,，所以他們不得不躲藏起來,，否則他們就會被德國納粹抓去。她和她的家人躲藏了兩年之后才被發(fā)現,。在這段時間里,，她唯一的忠實朋友就是她的日記了。她說,，“我不愿像大多數人那樣在日記中記流水賬,。我要把這本日記當作我的朋友，我要把我這個朋友稱作基蒂”?，F在,，來看看安妮在藏身處躲了一年多之后的那種心情吧。

1944年6月15日 星期四

親愛的基蒂：

我不知道這是不是因為我長久無法出門的緣故,，我變得對一切與大自然有關的事物都無比狂熱,。我記得非常清楚，以前,，湛藍的天空,、鳥兒的歌唱、月光和鮮花,，從未令我心迷神往過,。自從我來到這里，這一切都變了,。

??比方說,，有天晚上天氣很暖和，我熬到 11點半故意不睡覺,，為的是獨自好好看看月亮,。但是因為月光太亮了，我不敢打開窗戶,。還有一次,，就在五個月以前的一個晚上，我碰巧在樓上,，窗戶是開著的,。我一直等到非關窗不可的時 候才下樓去。漆黑的夜晚,，風吹雨打,，雷電交加，我全然被這種力量鎮(zhèn)住了,。這是我一年半以來第一次目睹夜晚??

你的 安妮

親愛的王小姐：

我同班上的同學有件麻煩事,。我跟我們班里的一位男同學一直相處很好,，我們常常一起做家庭作業(yè)，而且很樂意相互幫助,。我們成了非常好的朋友,。可是,，其他同學卻開始在背后議論起來,，他們說我和這位男同學在談戀愛，這使我很生氣,。我不想中斷這段友誼,，但是我又討厭人家背后說閑話。我該怎么辦呢,？

reading and writing 尊敬的編輯：

我是蘇州高中的一名學生,。我有一個難題,，我不太善于同人們交際,。雖然我的確試著去跟班上的同學交談，但是我還是發(fā)現很難跟他們成為好朋友,。因此,，有時候我感到十分孤獨。我確實想改變這種現狀,，但是我卻不知道該怎么辦,。如果您能給我提些建議，我會非常感激的,。

第二單元 世界上的英語

reading通向現代英語之路

16世紀末期大約有5百萬到7百萬人說英語,，幾乎所有這些人都生活在英國,。在17世紀英國人開始往世界其它地區(qū)遷移,。于是，許多別的國家開始說英語了,。如今說英語的人比以往任何時候更多了,，他們有的是作為第一語言來說，有 的是作為第二語言或外語,。中國也許是把英語作為外語來說的人數最多的國家,。

以英語作為母語的人,，即使他們所講的語言不盡相同，也可以互相交流,。然而，他們可能不是什么都懂,。比方說,，一個英國人可能對她的朋友說：“請到我的公寓（flat）里來坐坐，好嗎,？”她的一位美國朋友可能會問她,，“到哪兒去？”她的加拿大朋友可能會解釋說,，“她的意思是要我們到她的房間（apartment）去,。”

那么,，英語在一段時間里為什么會起變化呢,？當不同文化互相溝通時，所有的語言都會發(fā)生變化,。從公元450年到1150年,，人們所說的英語跟今天所說的英語就很不一樣。實際上,，當時的英語更多地是以德語為基礎的,，而現代英語不是。然后大約在公元 1150年到1500年期間,，英語的變化就更大了,，它不那么像德語，而更像法語了,，因為那時的英國的統(tǒng)治者講法語,，它變得更接近你們正在學習的這種語言。在17世紀,，莎士比亞所用的詞匯量比以前任何時期都大,。英語用法發(fā)生了一次大變化，那就是在諾厄·韋伯斯特編纂《美國英語詞典》的那個時期,，這本詞典體現了美國英語的特色,。后來，有些英國人到了澳大利亞,，那里的人也開始說英語了,。如今，澳大利亞英語也有它自己的特色了,。

英語在南亞也被當作外語或第二語言來使用,。印度擁有眾多講英語的人,，這是因為英國于1765 年到1947年統(tǒng)治過印度。在此期間,，英語成了政府和教育的語言,。在非洲和亞洲許多其它國家，比如南非,、新加坡,、馬來西亞等國，人們也說英語,。在中國,，大約從1842年起，香港就開始用英語了,。目前在中國學習英語的人數正在迅速增長,。中國英語將來會不會成為世界英語中的一種呢？這只好由時間來回答了,。

using language reading and talking 什么是標準英語,？是在英國、美國,、加拿大,、澳大利亞,、印度,、新西蘭所說的英語嗎？信不信由你,，（世界上）沒有什么標準英語,。許多人認為，電視和收音機里所說的就是標準英語,，這是因為在早期的電臺節(jié)目里,，人們期望新聞播音員所說的英語是最好的英語。然而,，即使在電視和收音機里,，你也會聽出人們在說話時的差異。

當人們用不同于“標準語言”的詞語時,，那就叫做方言,。美國英語有許多方言，特別是中西部和南部地區(qū)的方言,，以及黑人和西班牙人的方言,。在美國有些地區(qū)，相鄰城鎮(zhèn)的兩地人所說的方言都可能稍有不同,。美國英語之所以有這么多的方言是因為美國人是來自世界各地的緣故,。

地理位置對方言的產生也有影響,。住在美國東部山區(qū)的某些人說著比較古老的英語方言。當美國人從一個地方搬到另一個地方時,，他們也就把他們的方言隨著帶去了,。因此，美國東南部山區(qū)的人同美國西北部的人所說的方言就幾乎相同,。美國是一個大國,，國內說著許許多多的方言。雖然許多美國人經常在搬家,，但是他們仍然能夠辨別彼此的方言,。

第三單元 游記

reading 沿湄公河而下的旅程

第一部分 夢想與計劃

我的名字叫王坤。從高中起,，我姐姐王薇和我就一直夢想作一次偉大的自行車旅行,。到大學畢業(yè)時，我們終于有了機會,。首先想到要沿湄公河從源頭到終點騎車旅游的是我的姐姐,。她喜歡在鄉(xiāng)下作長途自行車旅行。兩年前,，她買了一輛價錢昂貴的山地自行車,，然后她還說服我也買了一輛（山地車）。去年她（騎車）去看望了我們的表兄弟——在昆 明讀大學的刀衛(wèi)和宇航,。他們是傣族人,，在云南省西部靠近瀾滄江的地方長大，湄公河在中國境內的這一段叫瀾滄江,，在其他國家（境內）叫湄公河,。很快，王薇使表兄弟也對騎車旅游產生了興趣,。

王薇有時確實很固執(zhí),。盡管她對到某些地方的最佳路線并不清楚，她卻堅持我們要找到河的源頭,，并從那里開始我們的行程,。她告訴我，她要把這次旅游安排得盡善盡美,。于是,，我就知道這個盡善盡美的方式總是她的方式。我問她是否看過地圖,。當然她并沒有看過——我的姐姐是不會考慮細節(jié)的,。于是，我告訴她，湄公河的源頭在青海省,。她給了我一個堅定的眼神——這種眼神表明她是不會改變主意的,。我說，我們的旅行將從5, 000多米的高地出發(fā),，這時她似乎顯得很興奮,。當我告訴她那里空氣稀薄，呼吸困難,，而且天氣很冷時,，她卻說這將是一次有趣的經歷。我非常了解我的姐姐,，她一旦下了決心，什么也不能使她改變,。最后,，我只好讓步了。

在我們旅行前的幾個月,，王薇和我去了圖書館,。我們找到一本大型地圖冊，里面有一些世界地理的明細圖,。我老是問她,，“我們什么時候動身？什么時候回來,？”我們從圖上可以看到,，湄公河發(fā)源于西藏一座山上的冰川。起初,，江面很小,，河水清澈而冷冽,，然后它開始快速流動,。它穿過深谷時就變成了急流，流經云南西部,。有時,，這條江進入寬闊的峽谷，就形成了瀑布,。我們倆驚奇地發(fā)現這條河有一半是在中國境內,。當流出中國，流出高地之后,，湄公河就變寬了,，變暖了，河水也變成了黃褐色。而當它進入東南亞以后,，河水慢慢地穿過小山和低谷,，以及長著稻谷的平原。最后,，湄公河三角洲的各支流流入中國南海,。

using language reading and speaking 夜晚的西藏山景

第二部分 山中一宿

雖然是秋天，但是西藏已經開始下雪了,。我們感到腿又沉又冷,，還以為腿結成冰了呢。你看到過雪人騎自行車嗎,？像往常一樣,，王薇在我的前面，我知道我用不著給她鼓勁兒,。上山很艱難,，而下山卻很好玩。等我們到達山谷,，天氣就暖和多了,，我們不得不把帽子、外衣,、手套和長褲換成t恤衫和短褲,。然后，當我們到達較冷的高地時,，我們又得換衣服,。剛到傍晚，我們就停下來宿營,，先把帳篷支起來,，然后吃飯。晚飯后,，王薇就去睡覺了,，而我卻睡不著。半夜里,，天空變得清朗了,，星星很亮。山里非常安靜——那天晚上幾乎沒有風,，只有篝火的聲音,。我們已經走得很遠了，馬上就要到達云南的大理,。在那里,，我們的表兄弟刀衛(wèi)和宇航將加入我們的行列,。我們迫不及待地想要見到他們！

河北省東北部的農村不斷有些怪事發(fā)生：三天來,，村子里的井水升升降降,，起起伏伏。農夫注意到,，水井的井壁上有深深的裂縫,，裂縫里冒出臭氣。農家大院里的雞, 甚至豬都緊張得不吃食,。老鼠從田地里跑出來找地方藏身,。魚缸和池塘里的魚會往外跳。1976年7月28日凌晨3點左右,，人們看到天上一道道明亮的光,。即使天空沒有飛機，在唐山城外也可以聽到飛機聲,。在市內,，有些建筑物里的水管爆裂開來。但是,，唐山市的一百萬居民幾乎都沒有把這些情況當一回事,，當天晚上照常上床睡覺了。凌晨3點42分,，一切都開始搖晃起來,。世界似乎到了末日！二十世紀最大的一次地震就在唐山市正下方11公里處發(fā)生了,，100公里以外的北京市都聽到了地震聲,，全國1 / 3的地方都有震感。一條8公里長30米寬的巨大裂縫橫穿房舍,、馬路和渠道,。地上一些洞穴冒出了蒸氣。石頭山變成了泥沙河,，在可怕的15秒鐘內,，一座大城市就沉淪在一片廢墟之中。2/3的人在地震中死去或受傷,。成千上萬個完整的家庭遇難,，許許多多的孩子變成了孤兒。死傷的人數達到40多萬,。

幸存的人們又怎么能相信這是自然現象呢？人們無論朝哪里看,，哪里的一切都幾乎被毀了,。所有的市內醫(yī)院、75%的工廠和建筑物、90%的家園都消失了,。殘磚就像秋天的紅葉覆蓋著大地,，然而它們是不可能被風刮走的。兩座大壩垮了,，多數橋梁不是塌了就是無法安全通行了,。鐵軌如今成了一條條廢鋼。好幾萬頭牛再也擠不出奶來,。50萬頭豬和幾百萬只雞全都死了,。井里滿是沙子，而不是水,。人們驚呆了,。接著，在下午晚些時候,，又一次強烈的地震震撼著唐山,。有些醫(yī)生和救援人員被困在廢墟下面。更多的房屋倒塌了,。水,、電和食物都很難弄到。人們開始納悶,，這場災難還會持續(xù)多久,。

不是所有的希望都破滅了。部隊派了15萬名戰(zhàn)士到唐山來協(xié)助救援人員,，數十萬的人得到了援助,。救援人員組成小分隊，將受困的人們挖出來,，將死者掩埋,。在唐山市的北邊，有一個萬名礦工的煤礦,，其中多數人得救了,。援救人員為那些家園被毀的幸存者蓋起了避難所，用火車,、卡車和飛機向市內運來了水,。慢慢地、慢慢地,，這座城市又開始出現了生機,。

在這個特殊的日子里,，我們邀請你把家人和朋友一起帶來。第五單元 納爾遜·曼德拉——一位當代英雄伊萊亞斯的故事

我的名字叫伊萊亞斯,。我是南非的一個窮苦的黑人工人,。第一次見到納爾遜·曼德拉的時候，是我一生中非常艱難的時期,。當時我才12歲,，那是在1952年，他開設了一家黑人律師事務所,，為那些遇到麻煩的窮苦黑人提供咨詢服務,。

我六歲開始上學，我僅僅在那里讀了兩年的學校有三公里遠,。我不得不輟學,，因為我的家庭無法繼續(xù)支付學費和交通費。我既不會讀,，也不會寫,。幾經周折，我才在一家金礦找到一份工作,。那個時候你要想住在約翰內斯堡就非得要有身份證不可,。非常遺憾的是我沒有這個證件，因為我不是在那里出生的,，我很擔心我是不是會失業(yè),。

那天，納爾遜·曼德拉告訴我該怎么做,，而且還幫我的忙,，這是我一生中最高興的日子。他告訴我要在約翰內斯堡立住腳,，應當如何獲取所需文件,。我永遠也忘記不了他對我的恩情，當他組織了非國大青年聯盟時,，我馬上就參加了這 個組織,。他說：“過去30年來所出現的大量法律剝奪我們的權利,，阻擋我們的進步,，一直到今天,，我們還處在幾乎什么權利都沒有的階段?！?/p>

他說的是真話,。當時黑人沒有選舉權，他們無權選擇管理他們的人,。他們在城里的住宅區(qū)都是由白人決定的,。他們不能做自己想要做的工作。他們被打發(fā)去居住的地方是南非最貧窮的地區(qū),。在那兒,，沒有人能夠種莊稼。事實上,，就像拉爾遜·曼德拉所說的：

“??我們被置于這樣一個境地：要么我們被迫接受低人一等的現實,，要么跟政府作斗爭。我們選擇向法律進攻,。首先我們用和平的方式來破壞法律,，而當這種方式也得不到允許時，??只有到這個時候,，我們才決定用暴力反抗暴力,。”

事實上,，我并不喜歡暴力,，但是在1963年的時候，我?guī)椭Я艘恍┱髽?。那是很危險的事情,，因為如果我被抓住了,，可能就要坐幾年牢。但是，我樂于幫忙,，因為我知道，這是為了實現我們的黑人和白人平等的夢想,。伊萊亞斯的故事續(xù)篇

你無法想象羅本島這個名字聽起來多么令我們恐懼,。那是一座任何人也逃不出去的監(jiān)獄。在那里我度過了我一生中最艱難的歲月,。但是我到那里時,，納爾遜·曼德拉也在那兒。從某種意義上講,，這倒幫了我的忙,。曼德拉先生為我們那些幾乎沒有上過學的人開辦學校,。他在午餐后的休息時間以及晚上本來該睡覺的時間教我們學習。我們躲在毯子下面讀書,，我們用可以找到的任何東西作蠟燭來看書,。我成了一名好學生，想要為我的學位而學習,，但是別人不允許我這樣做,。我知道我是夠聰明的，并且有能力拿到學位,。曼德拉先生讓獄卒參加我們一起學習,。他說他們不應該被剝奪學習的權利。他們并不比我更聰明,，卻通過了考試,，因此我就知道我也能夠拿到學位。這讓我覺得自己還不錯,。在監(jiān)獄里呆完四年之后,，我去找工作。因為我受過比較好的教育,，我得到了一份坐辦公室的工作,。可是警察局發(fā)現了,，告訴了我們那個行業(yè)的重要人物,，說我因為炸政府大樓而坐過牢。于是我失業(yè)了,。在曼德拉和非國大于1994年掌權之前,，我有20年沒有工作。在此期間,，我的妻兒只得從親戚朋友處討飯吃,，并乞求幫助。幸虧曼德拉先生還記得我,，給了我一份工作,，叫我?guī)е眯袌F去參觀羅本島上我住過的那座舊監(jiān)獄。第一次給旅行團作講解時,，我的心情很不好,。我回憶起那時所有的恐怖和令人畏懼的情景。我記起了獄卒的鞭打和暴行,，我想到了我那些死去的朋友,，我覺得我不能做這份（導游的）工作。但是我的家人卻鼓勵我，他們說,，從南非新政府得到的這份工作和薪餉,，是我畢生為爭取黑人的平等權利而斗爭所得到的回報。現在,，我51歲了,，我還能給參觀者介紹有關監(jiān)獄的情況，對此我感到非常驕傲,，因為我曾經為黑人在自己的國土上爭取自由而出過力,。

尋找琥珀廳

弗雷德里克·威廉·我,普魯士國王,從未想像過這恩賜與俄羅斯人會令人驚喜的歷史,。這個禮物,琥珀屋的,賜給這個名字,因為好幾噸的琥珀被用來制造它,。琥珀被選有一個美麗的黃棕色的顏色就像蜂蜜。房間的設計是別致的流行的日子,。這也是一種珍惜用金子來裝飾和珠寶,將國家的最好的藝術家們大約10年了,。

在1941年9月期間,納粹軍隊近了圣彼得堡,。這是一段時間,兩國處于交戰(zhàn)狀態(tài),。在納粹寒得赴頤和園,俄國人能夠取消一些家具和小藝術品從琥珀廳。然而,一些的納粹暗中偷了房間本身,。在不到兩天的時間內擺放了10萬件27木箱里,。毫無疑問,這些箱子然后穿上了konigsberg的火車在那時波羅的海邊的一個德國城市。在那之后,琥珀屋的發(fā)生了什么仍然是個謎,。

我是誰

長期以來,我已經改變很多,。我剛開始的時候只是一個機器在法國1642年的計算,。雖然我年輕的時候,我能夠簡化困難的總結。我養(yǎng)成了非常緩慢,它花了近兩百年以前,我建造機器,作為一種分析查爾斯·巴貝奇,。我由操作員可使用卡片上,我可以“思考”的答案,并且產生一個合乎邏輯的速度比任何人,。那時,人們認為技術革命,開始準備我的“人工智能”。1936年我真正的父親,艾倫·圖靈,寫了一本關于我怎么能夠正常運做“通用機器”來解決任何困難的數學問題,。從那以后,我保持快速增長無論大小和智力,。在1940年代我成長一樣大的房間,我懷疑是否能有更大的增長。然而,這個實相也擔心我的設計師。隨著時間的推移,我叫小,。首先作為一個pc(個人電腦),然后又成為了一名筆記本電腦,我被使用在20世紀70年代以來,辦公室和家庭,。

這些變化是有可能的,因為我的記憶中提高。首先是儲存在管,然后在晶體管和后來非常小的芯片,。結果完全改變了我的形狀,。隨著我的年齡增長我也變得渺小。隨著時間的推移,我的記憶中進展得如此之多,就像大象,我永遠都不會忘記告訴我該做的事情!和我的記憶變得如此大,即使我真不敢相信!不過我還是太孤獨了站在那里我自己,直到20世紀60年代初他們給了我一個家庭網絡連接,。我能分享我的知識與另一些是通過萬維網上,。20世紀70年代以來,許多新的應用了我。我成了非常重要的通信,、金融和貿易,。我也被推到機器人和用于制造手機以及幫助與醫(yī)療操作。我也被向太空發(fā)射火箭和派去探索月球和火星,?？傊?我的目標是給人類提供了高質量的生活。我現在真正充滿幸福的,我是一個忠實的朋友和幫手人類!安迪-機器人

我的第一個足球比賽是在日本名古屋幾年以前的事了,。去年,我們的團隊去西雅圖,華盛頓在美國,。我們獲得第二名。我個人認為,球隊贏得了第一名騙了,。他們已經開發(fā)了一種新型的節(jié)目就在競賽,。所以我們需要鼓勵我們的程序員來提高我們的智力也一樣。我們決心要創(chuàng)造更好的系統(tǒng),。在某種程度上我們的程序員是喜歡我們的教練,。她計劃我們的所有可能的移動,看她已經看過了人類的游戲。然后她準備可靠的移動到使用如果出現新情況,。我用這種方式可以使新動作使用“我的人工智能”,。我真希望能夠與其他人類的隊伍,為我有程序來行動和他們一樣。畢竟,在同學的幫助下,我電子腦過目不忘的,用我的智慧就是我的一切,。

動物滅絕 許多動物都有自己的歷史長河中消失了地球,。最著名的這些動物的恐龍。他們居住在地球上成千上萬的年前,早在人類會笑之前形成,、他們的未來卻似乎安全,。有許多不同種類的恐龍和許多隨后被用于生活在中國。25物種的卵子中發(fā)現了西夏縣,、南陽,、河南省。不久前,一罕見的新種類的問題似乎永遠被發(fā)現在北京朝陽縣,遼寧省,。當科學家們檢查了的骨頭,他們吃驚地發(fā)現這些恐龍不但能跑得他人,而且爬樹,。他們意識到這一點的離開骨頭就在一起了。

關于恐龍突然滅絕了65million年前,。一些科學家認為這是出乎意料的事件當一塊巨大的巖石上撞到了地球,從太空里放了太多的塵土變成了空中,。其他人認為,地球沒有太熱為恐龍推向了住在了。沒人確切知道為何及如何從地球上滅絕了恐龍在這么短的時間,。

我們知道有很多其它的野生植物,、動物、昆蟲和鳥類已經滅絕了最近,。根據一份聯合國報告稱,一些844動物和植物已經消失在過去的500年里,。渡渡鳥就是其中之一。在島上,它一直毛里求斯和是一個非常友善的動物,。請聽短篇小說渡渡鳥的以及它是如何從地球上滅絕了,。

no one knows exactly how the earth began, as it happened so long ago.沒有人確切知道地球是怎樣開始形成的，因為在很早很早以前地球就形成了,。however, according to a widely accepted theory, the universe began with a “big bang” that threw matter in all directions.然而,，一種普遍為人們所接受的理論是：宇宙起源于一次大爆炸，這次大爆炸將物質投射到四面八方,。after that, atoms began to form and combine to create stars and other bodies.然后,，原子開始形成并結合成恒星和其他天體。

for several billion years after the “big bang”, the earth was still just a cloud of dust.大爆炸后好幾十億年過去了,，但地球還只是一團塵埃,。what it was to become was uncertain until between 4.5 and 3.8 billion years ago when the dust settled into a solid globe.隨后它會變成什么沒人能知道，直到38—45億年前,，這團塵埃才慢慢地形成一個固體的球狀物,。the earth became so violent that it was not clear whether the shape would last or not.地球（開始）變得激烈動蕩，不知道這個固體形狀是否會繼續(xù)存在下去,。it exploded loudly with fire and were in time to produce carbon, nitrogen, water vapour and other gases, which were to make the earth's atmosphere.它（地球）猛烈地爆炸噴出了烈火與巖石,，最終產生了碳，氮氣,，水蒸氣和其他多種氣體,，從而形成了地球的大氣層。what is even more important is that as the earth cooled down, water began to appear on its surface.更為重要的是,，地球冷卻了下來,，地球的表面就開始出現了水。

water had also appeared on other planets like mars but, unlike the earth, it had disappeared later.在火星這些其他行星上都出現了水,，但和地球不同的是,，這些水后來都消失了。it was not immediately obvious that water was to be fundamental to the development of life.水對于生命的發(fā)展會起關鍵作用,，這一點在當時并不明顯,。what many scientists believe is that the continued presence of water allowed the earth to dissolve harmful gases and acids into the oceans and seas.很多科學家相信，由于地球上長期有水存在,，使得地球得以把有害氣體和酸性物質溶解在海洋里,。this produced a chain reaction, which made it possible for life to develop.這就產生了一系列的反應,，使得生命就有可能開始發(fā)展了。

many millions of years later, the first extremely small plants began to appear on the surface of the water.好幾百萬年后,，水的表面開始出現了極小的植物,。they multiplied and filled the oceans and seas with oxygen, which encouraged the later development of early shellfish and all sorts of fish.他們繁殖起來就使得海洋充滿了氧氣，這為早期的貝類及其他各種魚類后來的進化創(chuàng)造了條件,。next, green plants began to grow on were followed in time by land animals.接著,，綠色植物開始出現在陸地上。some were , called amphibians, were able to live on land as well as in the water.隨后,，陸地上出現了動物,，其中有一些是昆蟲，另外一些叫兩棲動物,，他們既能在陸上生活,，也能在水里生存。later when the plants grew into forests, reptiles appeared for the first time.后來,，當植物長成了森林的時候,，爬行動物首次出現了。they produced young entirely by laying eggs.他們一般是通過孵蛋而繁衍后代的,。after that, some huge animals, called dinosaurs, developed.再后來一些叫做恐龍的巨型動物出現了,。they laid eggs too and existed on the earth for more than 140 million years.他們也生蛋，在地球上生存了一億四千多萬年,。however,65 million years ago the age of the dinosaurs ended.然而,，六千五百萬年前，恐龍時代結束了,。why they suddenly disappeared still remains a mystery.他們?yōu)槭裁磿蝗粶缃^至今仍是個謎,。this disappearance made possible the rise of mammals on the earth.恐龍的滅絕使地球上哺乳動物的增多有了可能。these animals were different from all life forms in the past, because they gave birth to young baby animals and produced milk to feed them.這些動物不同于以往所有的生物形態(tài),，因為他們能從體內生產出幼仔并給幼仔哺乳,。

finally about 2.6 million years ago some small clever animals, now with hands and feet, appeared and spread all over the earth.最后，大約260萬年前,，一些小巧聰明,，長著手腳的動物出現了，他們散布在地球的各個地方,。thus they have, in their turn, become the most important animals on the planet.于是,，他們接著成為這個行星上最重要的動物。but they are not looking after the earth very well.然而,，他們對地球卻不怎么在意,，they are putting too much carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, which prevents heat from escaping from the earth into space.他們把過多的二氧化碳釋放到大氣層中，這使得地球上的熱不能釋放到太空中去,。as a result of this, many scientists believe the earth may become too hot to live on.因此,，許多科學家相信地球可能會變得太熱而不適合生物生存,。so whether life will continue on the earth for millions of years to come will depend on whether this problem can be solved.所以，在未來的數百萬年中,，生命能否在地球上延續(xù),，取決于這個問題能否得到解決。

8.必修三unit 4 a visit to the moon月球之旅

last month i was lucky enough to have a chance to make a trip into space with my friend li yanping, an astronomer.我的朋友李彥平是一位天文學家,。上個月我有幸得到一個機會同他一起去太空旅行。we visited the moon in our spaceship!我們乘宇宙飛船參觀了月球,。

before we left, li yanping explained to me that the force of gravity would change three times on our journey and that the first change would be the most powerful.在啟程以前,，李彥平向我解釋說，在我們的航行中會有三次引力的改變,，而第一次的改變將是最強的,。then we were off.隨后我們就起航了。as the rocket rose into the air, we were pushed back into our seats because we were trying to escape the pull of the earth's gravity.隨著火箭的升空,，由于我們在努力掙脫地球的引力,，我們被向后推在座位上。it was so hard that we could not say anything to each other.這種引力太強了,，以至于我們彼此間都不能說話了,。gradually the weight lessened and i was able to talk to him.隨后，這個力量慢慢減小,，我才能夠同他講話,。“why is the spaceship not falling back to the earth? on the earth if i fall from a tree i will fall to the ground.” i asked.我問道：“為什么太空船不會向后朝地球的方向落下去呢,？在地球上的時候,，如果我從樹上掉下來，總會朝地上落下去的,?！?“we are too far from the earth now to feel its pull,” he explained, 李彥平解釋說：“現在我們離地球太遠了，感覺不到地球的拉力,，“so we feel as if there is no gravity at all.所以我們感覺好像沒有地球引力了,。when we get closer to the moon, we shall feel its gravity pulling us, but it will not be as strong a pull as the earth's.” 當我們更接近月球時，就會感到月球的引力在拉我們,。但是,，月球的引力不像地球的引力那么大?！?i cheered up immediately and floated weightlessly around in our spaceship cabin watching the earth become smaller and the moon larger.我立刻感到很高興,，由于失重我在太空艙里飄來飄去，我望著（身后的）地球越來越小,，而（前方的）月球越來越大,。

when we got there, i wanted to explore immediately.我們到達月球時,，我就想立即進行探測?！癱ome on,” i said.“if you are right, my mass will be less than on the earth because the moon is smaller and i will be able to move more freely.“來吧,，”我說，“要是你講得對,，我的重量就會比在地球上小,，而我就能夠更自由地活動了。i might even grow taller if i stay here long enough.i shall certainly weigh less!” 如果我在月球上呆的時間足夠長的話,，我甚至可能長得更高,，我的體重肯定也會變得更輕！”i laughed and climbed down the steps from the spaceship.我笑著從飛船的梯級上爬下來,。but when i tried to step forward, i found i was carried twice as far as on the earth and fell over.而當我試著向前邁步的時候,，我發(fā)覺我被送出去很遠，步子的跨度竟然是在地球上的兩倍,，因而我摔倒了,。“oh dear,” i cried, “walking does need a bit of practice now that gravity has changed.” “天哪,，”我大聲說,，“重力改變了，看來走路也的確需要練一練了,?！盿fter a while i got the hang of it and we began to enjoy ourselves.過了一會兒，我才掌握了走路的訣竅,，這才開始感到自如了,。

leaving the moon's gravity was not as painful as leaving the earth's.擺脫月球引力不像擺脫地球引力那樣痛苦。but returning to the earth was very frightening.但是返回到地球的經歷卻是非常嚇人的,。we watched, amazed as fire broke out on the outside of the spaceship as the earth's gravity increased.我們驚奇地看著,，隨著地球引力的增加，宇宙飛船的外層燃燒起火,。again we were pushed hard into our seats as we came back to land.當我們回到地面時,，我們又感到被重重地推到在座位上?！皌hat was very exhausting but very exciting too,” i said.我說道：“真是精疲力竭了,，但也很激動人心?！皀ow i know much more about gravity!關于引力,，我現在就懂得更多了。do you think we could visit some stars next time?” 你認為下次我們可以上星球上去參觀嗎,？” “of course,” he smiled, “which star would you like to go to?”“當然可以,，”他笑著說,，“你想到哪顆星球上去呢？”

li daiyu and her cousin liu qian were on a trip to canada to visit their cousins in montreal on the atlantic coast.李黛予和她的表妹劉倩要去加拿大大西洋海岸的蒙特利爾市看望他們的表兄妹,。rather than take the aeroplane all the way, they decided to fly to vancouver and then take the train west to east across canada.他們不想一路乘飛機,，而決定先飛到溫哥華，再從西海岸乘火車橫穿加拿大到達東海岸,。the thought that they could cross the whole continent was exciting.要橫貫整個大陸的想法很是令人興奮,。

their friend, danny lin, was waiting at the airport.朋友林丹妮，在機場等候她們,。he was going to take them and their baggage to catch “the true north”, the cross-canada train.他要帶著她們和行李去火車站乘坐橫越加拿大的“真北方”號列車,。on the way to the station, he chatted about their trip.在去火車站的路上，林丹妮聊起了她們的旅程：“you're going to see some great scenery.“你們沿途將會看見美麗壯闊的風景,。going eastward, you'll pass mountains and thousands of lakes and forests, as well as wide rivers and large cities.一路向東行，你們會經過一座座山脈,，上千個湖泊,，森林，還有寬闊的河流和許多大城市,。some people have the idea that you can cross canada in less than five days, but they forget the fact that canada is 5,500 kilometres from coast to coast.有人想在不到五天的時間里穿越加拿大,，他們忘了加拿大從東海岸到西海岸有5500公里。here in vancouver, you're in canada's warmest part.這兒,，溫哥華,，是加拿大最溫暖的地方。people say it is canada's most beautiful city, surrounded by mountains and the pacific ocean.人們說溫哥華是加拿大最美麗的城市,，被大山和太平洋環(huán)抱,。skiing in the rocky mountains and sailing in the harbour make vancouver one of canada's most popular cities to live in.落基山脈可以滑雪，海港供你揚帆,，這些使得溫哥華成為加拿大最受歡迎的居住城市之一,。its population is increasing rapidly.這個城市的人口增長很快。the coast north of vancouver has some of the oldest and most beautiful forests in the world.在溫哥華北面的海岸上保存著世界上最古老,，最美麗的森林,。it is so wet there that the trees are extremely tall, some measuring over 90 metres.” 那兒的濕度很大，所以樹都長得特別高,，一些高達90多米,。”

that afternoon aboard the train, the cousins settled down in their seats.那天下午表姐妹倆才登上火車落了座,。earlier that day, when they crossed the rocky mountains, they managed to catch sight of some mountain goats and even a grizzly bear and an eagle.火車先是穿越落基山脈,，她們總算看到了野山羊，甚至還看見了一只大灰熊和一只鷹,。their next stop was calgary, which is famous for the calgary stampede.她們的下一站是卡爾加里,，這個城市因“大西部賽馬會”而聞名,。cowboys from all over the world come to compete in the stampede.來自世界各地的牛仔們來參加賽馬會比賽。many of them have a gift for riding wild horses and can win thousands of dollars in prizes.他們中許多人都有騎野馬的才能,，他們能贏得幾千美元的獎金,。

after two days' travel, the girls began to realize that canada is quite empty.兩天后，他們開始意識到加拿大人煙稀少,。at school, they had learned that most canadians live within a few hundred kilometres of the usa border, and canada's population is only slightly over thirty million, but now they were amazed to see such an empty country.他們在學校學過,，大多數加拿大人居住在靠近美國幾百千米以內的邊境地帶，加拿大的人口也只有三千萬多一點兒,。但是現在看到這么空曠的國家,，她們很驚訝。they went through a wheat-growing province and saw farms that covered thousands of acres.火車穿過一個種植小麥的省份,，他們看到了面積有數千平方英畝的農場,。after dinner, they were back in an urban area, the busy port city of thunder bay at the top of the great lakes.晚飯后，他們又回到城市,，位于五大湖區(qū)最北端的繁忙的港口城市桑德灣,。the girls were surprised at the fact that ocean ships can sail up the great lakes.海輪可以開到五大湖，讓表姐妹倆感到吃驚,。because of the great lakes, they learned, canada has more fresh water than any other country in the world.他們知道,，因為五大湖，加拿大的淡水比世界上任何其他國家都要多,。in fact, it has one-third of the world's total fresh water, and much of it is in the great lakes.事實上,，加拿大擁有全世界三分之一的淡水量，其中大部分都蓄在五大湖泊里,。

that night as they slept, the train rushed across the top of lake superior, through the great forests and southward towards toronto.那天夜里她們睡著了,，火車越過蘇必利爾湖北部，穿過大森林,，朝南向多倫多飛馳著,。

so why has english changed over time?那么,，英語在一段時間里為什么會起變化呢？actually all languages change and develop when cultures meet and communicate with each other.事實上,，當不同文化互相交流滲透時,，所有的語言都會有所發(fā)展，有所變化。at first the english spoken in england between about ad 450 and 1150 was very different from the english spoken today.首先,，在公元450年到1150年間,，人們所說的英語跟今天所說的英語就很不一樣。it was based more on german than the english we speak at present.當時的英語更多地是以德語為基礎的,，而現代英語不是,。then gradually between about ad 800 and 1150, english became less like german because those who ruled england spoke first danish and later french.然后，漸漸地,，大約在公元800年到1150年期間,，英語不那么像德語了,。因為那時的英國的統(tǒng)治者起初講丹麥語后來講法語,。these new settlers enriched the english language and especially its vocabulary.這些新的定居者大大豐富了英語語言，特別是在詞匯方面,。so by the 1600’s shakespeare was able to make use of a wider vocabulary than ever before.所以到17世紀,，莎士比亞所用的詞匯量比以前任何時期都大。in 1620 some british settlers moved to america.在1620年,，一些英國人搬遷到美洲定居,。later in the 18th century some british people were taken to australia h began to be spoken in both countries.后來，到了19世紀,，有些英國人也被送往澳大利亞,，兩個國家的人都開始說英語了。finally by the 19th century the language was settled.最后,，到20世紀,，英語才真正定形。at that time two big changes in english spelling happened: first samuel johnson wrote his dictionary and later noah webster wrote the american dictionary of the english language.那時,，英語在拼寫上發(fā)生了兩大變化：首先,，塞繆爾·約翰遜編寫了詞典，后來,，諾厄·韋伯斯特編纂了《美國英語詞典》,，the latter gave a separate identity to american english spelling.后者體現了美國英語拼寫的不同特色。

english now is also spoken as a foreign or second language in south asia.現在,，英語在南亞也被當作外語或第二語言來說,。for example, india has a very large number of fluent english speakers because britain ruled india from 1765 to 1947.比如說，印度擁有眾多講英語很流利的人,，這是因為英國于1765年到1947年統(tǒng)治過印度,。during that time english became the language for government and education.在那期間，英語成了官方語言和教育用語,。english is also spoken in singapore and malaysia and countries in africa such as south africa.在新加坡,、馬來西亞和非洲其它國家，比如南非，人們也說英語,。today the number of people learning english in china is increasing rapidly.目前在中國學習英語的人數正在迅速增長,。in fact, china may have the largest number of english learners.事實上，中國可能擁有世界上最多的英語學習者,。will chinese english develop its own identity? only time will tell.中國英語會發(fā)展出自己的特色嗎,？這只能由時間來回答了。

what is standard english?什么是標準英語,？is it spoken in britain, the us, canada, australia, india and new zealand?是在英國,、美國、加拿大,、澳大利亞,、印度、新西蘭所說的英語嗎,？believe it or not, there is no such thing as standard english.信不信由你,，（世界上）沒有什么標準英語。many people believe the english spoken on tv and the radio is standard english.許多人認為,，電視和收音機里所說的就是標準英語,。this is because in the early days of radio, those who reported the news were expected to speak excellent english.這是因為在早期的電臺節(jié)目里，人們期望新聞播音員所說的英語是最好的英語,。however, on tv and the radio you will hear differences in the way people speak.然而,，在電視和收音機里，你也會聽出人們在說話時的差異,。

when people use words and expressions different from “standard language”, it is called a dialect.當人們用不同于“標準語言”的詞語時,，那就叫做方言。american english has many dialects, especially the midwestern, southern, african american and spanish dialects.美國英語有許多方言,，特別是中西部和南部地區(qū)的方言,，以及黑人和西班牙人的方言。even in some parts of the usa, two people from neighbouring towns speak a little differently.在美國有些地區(qū),，即使是相鄰城鎮(zhèn)的兩個人所說的語言都可能稍有不同,。american english has so many dialects because people have come from all over the world.美國英語之所以有這么多的方言是因為美國人是來自世界各地的緣故。

geography also plays a part in making dialects.地理位置對方言的產生也有影響,。some people who live in the mountains of the eastern usa speak with an older kind of english dialect.住在美國東部山區(qū)的一些人說著比較古老的英語方言,。when americans moved from one place to another, they took their dialects with them.當美國人從一個地方搬到另一個地方時，他們也就把他們的方言隨著帶去了,。so people from the mountains in the southeastern usa speak with almost the same dialect as people in the northwestern usa.因此,，美國東南部山區(qū)的人同美國西北部的人所說的方言就幾乎相同。the usa is a large country in which many different dialects are spoken.美國是一個使用多種方言的大國,。although many americans move a lot, they still recognize and understand each other’s dialects.雖然許多美國人經常搬遷,，但是他們仍然能夠辨別,、理解彼此的方言。5.必修一unit 3journey down the mekong
