Interviewer: Mr Shakespeare, it’s very good of you to spare some time to come and 
talk with us about your life and works. You were born in Stratford-upon-Avon, 
weren’t you?
William Shakespeare: Yes, it’s a lovely town. People from all over the world go 
there to visit my grave and watch my plays.
Interviewer: Which of your own plays are your favourites?
William Shakespeare: Romeo and Juliet. It is one of my early works. The story is 
sad but romantic. The 20th Century Fox has filmed it in a modern way. I think 
Leonardo DiCaprio is a suitable Romeo for modern audience. (laugh) Among 
my later works, I like King Lear best. I believe the storm scene and Cordelia’s 
death scene are two of my most inspired
 
pieces. A Japanese film producer has also 
adapted it into a film. Then, The Tempest has 
its good points too. It’s my farewell to the 
stage, you know.
Interviewer: Thank you, Mr Shakespeare. I’m 
sure we’ll all continue to enjoy your plays 
and poems for years to come.

Winnie-the-Pooh first made his appearance in a (1) ________ called Teddy 
Bear in 1923. Three years later, Milne (2) _______ his stories about Winnie-
the-Pooh. Since then, Winnie-the-Pooh has become a (3) _______ bear. The

Forest and the characters in the stories.
    
    2      
Read the passage and match the words or phrases with their defi nitions.
Have you ever read Winnie-the-Pooh? Here is something about the book.
Winnie-the-Pooh made his fi rst appearance in a poem called Teddy Bear by 
Alan Alexander Milne in Punch magazine in 1923. In 1926, Milne fi rst published 
his stories about Winnie-the-Pooh. They were a great success. Since then, Winnie-
the-Pooh has become a world-famous bear. The characters of Pooh, Piglet, Eeyore, 
Tigger, Kanga and Roo, are based on the real toys of Milne’s son’s. The boy’s name 
was Christopher Robin. The artist, E.H. Shepard, drew the lovely Ashdown Forest 
and the characters in the stories. Today, you can still see the places he drew.

(2)  Why don’t the others want to play with Wilbur?
(3)  Who is Templeton?
(4)  What do you think Wilbur will do next?

     Listen to the next part of this story with your book closed. Then read the 
 
passage, ask your partner some questions about the passage and fi nd the  
 
answers together. 
Late that afternoon, Lurvy went to Mr Zuckerman. “I think there’s something 
wrong with that pig of yours. He hasn’t touched his food.”
“Give him two spoonfuls of medicine,” said Mr Zuckerman.
Wilbur couldn’t believe what was happening to him when Lurvy caught 
him and forced the medicine down his throat. This was certainly the worst 
day of his life.
Darkness settled over everything. Soon there were only shadows and 
noises of the sheep chewing. You can imagine Wilbur’s surprise when, out of 
the darkness, came a small voice. It sounded rather thin, but pleasant. “Do 
you want a friend, Wilbur?” it said. “I’ll be a friend to you. I have watched 
you all day and I like you.” 
“But I can’t see you,” said Wilbur, jumping to his feet. “Where are you? 
And who are you? ”
“I’m right up here,” said the voice. “Go to sleep. You’ll see me in the 
morning.”

    2     Listen to the passage with your book shut. Then read it and answer the questions.
It is still raining outside. Wilbur feels lonely in the barn.
He has asked the goose to come and play, but the goose is sitting on her 
eggs. Of course she doesn’t play when there are eggs to hatch.   
He has tried one of the lambs, but the lamb, in the fi rst place, is not old enough 
to jump over the fence, and in the second place, she is not interested in pigs! 
He has asked Templeton. 
“Play? I never do those things if I can avoid them,” replied the rat, sourly. “I 
prefer to spend my time eating, gnawing, spying and hiding. Right now I am 
on my way to your trough to eat your breakfast.”

Compared with traditional reading, digital reading is more convenient. You 
can read anywhere and anytime. If you are under conditions of darkness, 
you can still continue to read the book that you have not finished. The main 
reasons for people buying e-books online are possibly lower prices, in-
creased comfort and a larger selection of titles.

Bow down their heads,

(4) I saw a little pony,
 
And he galloped like this…
(5) I saw a poor old lady,
 
And she hobbled like this…

And he stood like this…

In 1440, Henry VI founded Eton College to provide free education for 70 
poor scholars. They would then go on with their study at King’s College, 
Cambridge. Life in the early days was harsh — rats ran free and the boys had 
to wash outside using only cold water. Since then, the school has become 
one of the most elite in the United Kingdom.
Nineteen former British Prime Ministers were educated in Eton, includ-
ing the Duke of Wellington. The school uniform has always been a black tail-
coat and waistcoat, and pin-striped trousers since the 1850s. 
Today Eton is a secondary school (a “high school” in the American sense) 
for about 1,280 boys between the ages of 13 and 18. Most of the boys reside 
in the United Kingdom while some are from overseas.

When someone mentions Nanjing, you probably think of an ancient city be-
cause it used to be the capital city of six dynasties in Chinese history.
Nanjing, now the capital city of Jiangsu Province in China, has long been 
one of China’s most important cities. Nanjing means “southern capital”. In 
Nanjing you can still see many historic and cultural sites such as the Ming 
Tombs. This site has now been on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
Another most popular place to visit is the Qin Huai River. On the south 
bank of the river, there is the longest stretch of city wall in China. The 
110-meter-long wall is all made of brick. The river itself is well-known for

      Read the passage after the tape.
Have you been to Boston? Have you visited the Boston Tea Party Ship Mu-
seum? It has long been a famous historic spot. 
An important event happened on November 27, 1773. Three ships from 
the East India Co. landed at Boston. All the ships were full of tea. The compa-
ny sold the tea in the U.S. without paying tax. This was unfair to Americans. 
On the cold evening of December 16, 1773, some Americans dressed them-
selves as Red Indians and went onto the ships and threw the tea into the sea.
Now you can see a full-size copy of the Beaver, one of the three ships, 
in Boston. It was made in 1973. Guests may recreate the scene by throwing 
bags of tea over the side of the ship. A tea party takes place on the ship each 
year on December 16. Don’t forget to grab a cup of tea (tax-free) on your 
way out!

Have you ever been to any historic places in and out of China? Can you see any dif-
ference between Chinese constructions and foreign constructions?
First, they are different in architectural style. In China, there are many temples 
and pagodas whereas in Western countries there are many churches and castles.
Then you often see works of calligraphy and ink paintings inside the Chinese 
constructions, but in the West you see oil paintings and wall frescos.

Bill Gates was born in Seattle, USA, in 1955. When he was at school, he never took 
a book home to study or attended maths classes. However, he fi nished among the 
top ten in the country in a maths aptitude test. He then went to Harvard, but left 
without getting a degree. Then he started up his computer company Microsoft. 
By the age of forty-one, he was one of the world’s richest men. Unlike some bil-
lionaires, he is not shy about spending his money: he owns twenty Ferraris, each 
worth more than £150,000. And he lives in a high-tech mansion overlooking Lake 
Washington. Bill Gates has decided to donate most of his money to education and 
charity. He now spends most of his time trying to solve problems such as disease 
and hunger in poor nations.

Bill Gates visited China in February, 2003. His speech caused a stir in the young 
Chinese audience. On 28 February, Microsoft signed an agreement with the Chinese 
government. It gave China controlled access to its Windows operating systems 
and other technologies. Bill Gates, head of the US software giant, said on Friday in 
Beijing that his two-day trip to China was short and fruitful. The contract he signed 
would be a milestone in Microsoft’s development in China, the world’s most popu-
lous country.

Yang Liwei is the fi rst man who travels in a Chinese spacecraft. His mission, Shen-
zhou 5, made China the third country to have independently sent people into 
space. Because of him, a new word coined in the West to name the Chinese astro-
naut “Taikonaut”.
Yang Liwei was born on June 21, 1965 in Liaoning Province. His mother was a 
teacher, and his father was an accountant. He is married. His wife is an army offi cer 
too.
Yang was selected as an astronaut candidate in 1998 and had trained for space 
fl ight since then. He was chosen from the fi nal pool of 13 candidates to fl y on Chi-
na’s fi rst manned space mission. Then, on October 15, 2003, Shenzhou 5 spacecraft 
was launched at Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center. Before the launch, almost nobody 
in public knew about the Chinese astronaut candidates. His selection was not an-
nounced to the media until the day before the launch.
Many people have long thought that the Great Wall is the only human construc-
tion on earth that astronauts can see from space. But Yang Liwei said he didn’t see 
it in space. Astronauts can see many cities from space, but unfortunately, the Great 
Wall is so narrow that they can’t recognize it.

On July 10, 2011, the Beckhams welcomed their fourth child, a daughter. The birth 
of the new girl drew great attention to the celebrity couple like always.  
David Beckham, born in London in 1975, is an English football star. He has 
played for several famous football clubs such as Manchester United and Real Ma-
drid. Now he is a member of Los Angeles Galaxy, a professional football, or soccer, 
as the sport is known in the US, team. Before his injury, he used to be the captain 
of the England national team. David’s fame is beyond football. Besides his great 
football skills, he has got other things to catch people’s eyes: hairstyle, clothes, and 
his marriage to Spice Girl Victoria. 
Victoria Adams, born in Hertfordshire in 1974, is an English singer and fash-
ion designer. In the late 1990s, Victoria became famous with the pop group Spice 
Girls. Later Victoria continued her fashion career alone. She designed a few jeans 
and handbags, wrote two books, and took part in some TV shows. Wherever she is, 
people recognize her at once. 
David met Victoria in 1996. It was love at fi rst sight. They got married in an 
Irish castle in 1999. At the time, David was 24 and Victoria was 25. Now they live 
in a large house in Los Angeles and lead a happy life. They have three sons and a 
daughter.

Real heroes are only human. They live and die like the rest of us. But fi ctional he-
roes are different. They began life many years ago and they will live on in fi ction. 
Here is a popular twentieth-century fi ctional hero. He never dies.
The spy 007 has been working for the British Secret Service since 1953 when 
Ian Fleming fi rst wrote about him in Casino Royale. Fleming is now dead, but the 
spy still lives on. The fi rst fi lm was Dr No in 1962 and since then he has appeared 
in over twenty fi lms. The Cold War has fi nished and Bond’s enemies are not the 
Russians any more, but there are a lot of villains out there! Columbia Pictures, the 
fi lm’s production and distribution company, has recently fi nished fi lming his latest 
adventure.

lied.

The Chorus (or Les Cho-
ristes in its homeland) may 
follow the well-trodden 
path of inspiring teacher 
features past, but this 
Oscar-nominated movie is 
so well made and downright 
entertaining that you can’t 
help but be sucked in by its 
Gallic charms.

 ‘I must say I enjoyed this movie, even after some people considered it 
an advert from the French countryside Tourist Board.’ James, New York
RATING  6/10
‘It’s fascinating to see how a fi lm without violence, action or sex can still 
be so good. Christophe Barratier has really succeeded in remaking such a 
beautiful fi lm.’ Donna, Geneva
RATING  __/10
‘You can try to hate The Chorus. It’s been almost religiously put together 
for an international market, combing the rare, picture-postcard rural 
lifestyle with one of the oldest plots in the book, and for anyone who’s 
seen The Blackboard Jungle, Dead Poets Society and a million other 
movies (yes, including the dreaded Mr Holland’s works), this fi lm won’t 
contain a single surprise.’ Mathew, Rome
RATING  __/10
“It is an enchanting little fi lm that works much like a semi-serious version 
of ‘Sister Act 2.’ After all, it’s a movie about a teacher who inspires a 
group of misfi t children by getting them to sing.” Nathalie, France
RATING  __/10
“Gerard Jugnot is a somewhat mousy-looking French star actor but 
possesses the priceless gifts of screen vulnerability, empathy and emo-
tional clarity. He has the ability, like Charlie Chaplin, to make viewers 
identify with a ‘little fellow,’ and he uses all his skills to moving effect 
in ‘The Chorus’, where he plays a supremely ordinary-looking chap with 
extraordinary skill.” Michael, Chicago

How did you celebrate the New Year? 
Mike: Hi Sarah! I’m so happy that the New Year is just around the corner.
Sarah: Me too! How did you celebrate the New Year last year, Mike?
Mike: Well, on the New Year’s Eve, I went to New York City’s Times Square with my 
family. We waited for words “Happy New Year” to flash on the electric signs.
Sarah: Oh, wonderful! Did you have a good time?
Mike: Yeah, the square was very lively and crowded. When the signs began to flash 
and the bells rang, people all cheered. By the way, where did you spend the 
New Year’s Eve?
Sarah: Well, I stayed at home with my family. My mother made a delicious dinner, 
and we watched the celebrations on TV.
Mike: That’s nice. What did you do then on the New Year’s Day?
Sarah: Well, we visited some friends, relatives and neighbours. We talked, and did 
some things together.
Mike: And so what is your New Year’s resolution?
Sarah: Actually, I have many resolutions. My biggest resolution is to improve my 
performance at school. What about you?
Mike: My resolution is to go out less and spend more time staying with my family.

Trick or treat!

(1) When is Halloween?
 
 
(2) What does “Trick or treat” mean?
 
 
(3) What do people do with pumpkins?
 
 
(4) What are the typical Halloween activities? 
 
2       Listen to the text and fi nd tricks and treats. Put them in the column.
It was a brisk autumn evening. Mrs Brown was sitting by the window, knit-
ting. Suddenly, there was a sharp knock on the door, then two or three more 
knocks. Mrs Brown heard whispers, giggles, and the rattling of paper. She 
opened the door. There stood three children wearing masks and costumes. 
When the children saw her, they shouted all together, “Trick or treat! Money 
or sweets!”
“Well,” Mrs Brown said, “Tonight is Halloween. Let me see. I think I have 
some candy bars to give you.” Each child carried a brown paper bag. Mrs 
Brown dropped a candy bar into each bag. Then she said to one boy, who 
was holding a toy gun and wearing high boots, “What are you?”
“A cowboy, of course,” he answered.
“I’m a ghost,” shouted an even smaller child hidden under a white sheet.
“And I’m a skeleton,” said the third child. “My bones glow in the dark,” 
The “skeleton” was wearing a black suit with white bones painted on it.
“Thanks for the candy,” shouted the children as they ran off to ring an-
other doorbell.
“You’re welcome,” said Mrs Brown. “Have fun. And don’t play any pranks.”
On Halloween, American children love to dress up in costumes and go 
“trick-or-treating.” If an adult refuses to supply a treat — candy, cookies, 
fruit, or money — the children often play a trick. They soap windows, write 
on doors with crayons, overturn rubbish bins, or stick pins into doorbells to 
keep them ringing.

I remember our Thanksgivings on the farm. We lived on a farm near the 
town. There were many other relatives. They lived near us. They all came, 
from other farms and from the town, to be with us.
We worked for days to prepare for the hol-
iday. Mother and the girls cleaned every part 
of the house, and they got all the extra rooms 
ready for the relatives. Then they washed all 
our best clothes — we called these dresses 
and suits our “Sunday best.”  The men cut 
extra wood for all the cooking, for we had an 
old wood-burning stove. Father always killed the biggest turkey, and then he 
cleaned the bird. Finally, the whole family drove into the town to buy food like 
coffee and sugar because we couldn’t produce these on the farm.
On Thanksgiving morning the women got up early to begin cooking. 
Mother stuffed the turkey with bread and onions, and then she roasted it. 
Aunt Ellen made a dozen pumpkin pies. Aunt Ann picked autumn fl owers 
from the garden for the center of the table. She also brought in vegetables 
to eat with the turkey and the pies.
The older children helped set the table while the twin babies played in 
their high chair. But I liked to play with the cat, waiting for somebody to give 
me food. All this time our old dog lay by the warm stove, watching the activity.

The Chinese New Year — the Spring Festival is the most festive time of the 
year in China. To the Chinese people it is as important as Christmas is to 
people in the West.
 
The festival falls on the eve of the lunar New Year’s Day and ends on the 
fi fteenth day of the fi rst month of the lunar calendar. 
 
Days before the Spring Festival, every family is busy giving their house a 
good cleaning. People hope to sweep away all the bad luck in the family and

(2) When does the festival begin and when does it end?
(3) Why do people give their houses a good cleaning before the New Year?
(4) What do people do on New Year’s Eve?
(5) What is the popular food for the Chinese people on that special day?
to make way for the incoming good luck.
 
Guo Nian, meaning passing the year, is the common term among the 
Chinese people for celebrating the Spring Festival. It actually means greeting 
the new year. At midnight on the New Year Eve, people let off fi recrackers. 
Friends express their wishes on the phone and everyone stays up late to cel-
ebrate the arrival of another new year. 
 
On New Year’s Eve, all the family members come together to feast. One 
popular food on the Chinese New Year’s Eve is Jiaozi. While southerners fa-
vour a sticky sweet rice pudding — Nian gao.
 
During the next two weeks, friends and relatives visit one and another ex-
changing gifts. The Chinese New Year’s celebration fi nishes with the beautiful 
Festival of Lanterns. And this means the offi cial end of the Spring Festival.

Go in and out the windows

Now stand and play the partner

Now follow me to London
As sweet as we’ve done before
Now shake his hand clip him
And bound before you go.

Susan: Yes, I like to come here very much. Do you play any sports? 
Janet: Yes, I play tennis, I do a little karate and I go windsurfing in summer.
Susan: You’re really into sports! I don’t do much sports, though. I like coming to the 
gym to work out. It is much easier for me. 
Janet: Listen, I have an idea. Why don’t you come to the karate class with me?
Susan: No, karate would be too hard for me ...

myself, at least until the Summer Olympics. 
Ray: 
Oh really? Do you plan to go to see the games while you’re here? 
Bob: 
Sure, the Olympics are very exciting. It’s like one big party! I had fun when 
I went to previous Olympics. 
Ray: 
You mean you’ve been to the Olympics before? 
Bob: 
Yes, I spent a few days in Atlanta in 1996, and I saw the Winter Olympics in 
Japan in 1998 too. 
Ray: 
So you saw different people and had a clear view of many events. 
Bob: 
Actually, I didn’t see so many. Believe it or not, it’s better to watch the 
sports events at home. It’s more comfortable, you can see the games up 
close. 
Ray: 
But why should people go to see the Olympics?

The Olympic Games are the biggest international sports competition on 
Earth. Thousands of athletes come together every four years and take part in 
individual and team sports. A few take home gold, silver or bronze medals. 
New sports are added at every game. And billions of people watch the Olym-
pics on television. Separate Winter Games are also held every four years at 
snowy locations. They are for winter sports such as skiing and ice skating.
 
Every four years since 1896, the best sportsmen and sportswomen in 
the world have met together for the Olympic Games. In 1896 — the fi rst 
modern Olympics — 311 athletes from fourteen countries tried to win med-
als in forty-three events. The 2008 Summer Olympics, which is the 29th, took 
place in Beijing, China, from August 8 to August 24, 2008. A total of 11,438 
athletes from 204 countries competed in 28 sports and 302 events. 
 
Being at the Olympics is the life’s dream for thousands of athletes, and 
winning an Olympic medal is their highest goal. The Olympic Games have be-
come an important event celebrated by people around the world. The Olym-
pic motto is “Faster, Higher, Stronger.” The Olympic Torch symbolizes peace, 
friendship and progress.

Basketball is a fast and exciting sport to play and watch. You can play it in-
doors or outdoors. All you need is a hoop, a basketball, and some friends. A 
team scores by shooting the basketball through the other team’s hoop. The 
team with the most points at the end of the game wins!
 
Basketball is played on a rectangular court with a hoop at each end. 
Each team has fi ve players on the court at a time.
 
A player moves the ball up and down the court by bouncing it with one 
hand. This is called dribbling. You also can move the ball by passing it to a 
teammate.
 
The team with the ball is on offense. The other team is on defense.

Choose one of the topics and talk about it in your group.

ing. The best way to play defense is by staying between the person you are 
guarding and the basket.
 
Once you stop dribbling the ball, you have to pass it or shoot it. If you 
start dribbling again, it is called a double dribble. If you move more than one 
of your feet while holding the ball, it is called traveling. When you do either 
of these, the other team gets the ball.
 
When you play defense, you can steal the ball from the player who is 
dribbling. Make sure you don’t trip or push the other players. Otherwise the 
referee will call a foul.
 
You can pass the ball through the air or by bouncing it to another player. 
When you pass the ball, aim for the chest of the other person.
 
A basket is usually worth two points. A free throw is worth one point.
Bouncing the ball off the backboard sometimes can help you make a shot.

1. DID YOU KNOW?
In ancient Greece athletes often competed naked. (Women 
were not allowed to watch or take part!) Greek artists strove to 
capture the athletes’ grace and power in works of  sculpture. 
This famous  statue is a Roman copy of a Greek statue called 
The Discus-thrower, made  about 450 BC. The ancient Greeks 
used a bronze plate  for their discus.
 
2. Many of the country’s top football clubs now have ladies teams. England’s Ladies 
are one of Europe’s top teams, growing stronger every season as the female game 
gets a real foothold in this country.
Young girls can start to play with local club sides around the country. At fi rst they 
are able to compete in the same sides as boys, but as they get older they have to 
fi nd girl-only sides. An increasing number of local clubs are now trying to set up their 
own girl-only teams because of growing demand.

Eating habits in America  
 
1       Listen to the text with you book shut and choose the correct answer.
“Three square meals a day” — breakfast, lunch, and dinner — that’s what 
the typical American is supposed to eat. 
 
A complete American breakfast begins with fruit or fruit juice (usu-
ally orange juice). The main course generally consists of cereal or eggs. For 
adults, coffee is the usual breakfast drink. Other popular breakfast dishes are 
waffl es, French toast and pancakes, and all of them are served with butter 
and maple syrup.
 
Lunch hour is from noon until one o’clock or so. Many people bring 
lunch with them from home. For this purpose they need a small, portable 
meal. So the sandwich is their best choice. In addition, it is inexpensive and 
easy to prepare. Some popular cold sandwiches are those made with ham 
and cheese, peanut butter and jelly, sliced chicken or turkey, tuna salad, or 
roast beef, lettuce, tomato, and pickle are often tucked inside or served 
alongside the sandwich.
 
The biggest meal of the day in the United States is dinner. Most Ameri-
cans prefer to eat dinner between 6pm and 7pm. It usually includes meat (or 
other protein) with potatoes and bread, at least one vegetable (corn, peas, 
broccoli) and dessert. Ice cream is the overall favorite. And it can be found in 
most refrigerators in a variety of fl avors.
 
With lunch and dinner, Americans commonly drink water, fruit juice, cof-
fee, tea or soda. 
 
In the United States, eating is an important part of family life and social 
activity. In many homes, dinner time may be the only time when everyone 
gets together, and shares the day’s experiences. It is also an occasion for in-
viting their friends. 
(1) Americans commonly begin the day by drinking_______.
 
A. soda

2 Forks: go on the left of the plate.
3 Order of placing: cutlery is always set to be used, starting from the out-
side.
4 Facing: Forks are placed with the prongs facing upwards and knife blades 
should face inwards.
5 Dessert or fruit course: if special knives are needed, these are generally 
brought on with the fruit.
6 Pudding spoon and fork: this is sometimes put above plate setting in or-
der to save space on the table. The fork should be pointing to the left. 
Put the spoon above the fork with its handle to the right.
China
7 Lay side plates on the left of the setting.
8 Other plates are generally brought in with each course.
9 If food has to be eaten with fi ngers, provide fi nger bowls of warm water

Culture Corner
In traditional Chinese dining, dishes are placed at the center of the table and are 
shared by all the guests. Square and rectangular tables are often used for small 
groups of people. Round tables are used for large groups so dishes can be shared 
easily.
A basic place setting consists of a small teacup, a large plate with a small empty 
rice bowl, a set of chopsticks, a chopstick rest and a spoon usually placed on the 
right side of the plate.

Weddings in the United States
 
1       Listen to the text with your book shut and put the following events in the  
 
right order.
In the United States, weddings are celebrated differently. But most young 
couples prefer a traditional wedding.
 
Before they are married, a man and a woman become engaged. They 
then send wedding invitations to their neighbours, their close friends and 
their relatives. When everything is ready, there is the wedding ceremony.
 
The wedding ceremony itself usually lasts between 20 and 40 minutes. 
The family and friends of the bride and the groom sit on different sides of 
the church. The wedding party goes in while the wedding march is played. 
The groom enters the church from a side door. The bride, with a bouquet, 
wears a white gown. She enters last with her father and he will “give her 
away”. The bride and groom exchange vows and rings during the ceremony. 
 
After the ceremony there is often a party, called a “reception”. The new-
ly-weds and their guests drink champagne, eat a delicious dinner, and dance 
to the music of a live band. And it’s common to congratulate the new couple 
at this time.
 
After the wedding, the couple leave the party in a car with balloons and 
streamers. They often have the words “Just married” painted on the back 
window. The couple run to the car under a shower of rice by the guests. And 
then the couple drive away from the church and go on their honeymoon.

(2) Where are they? 
(3)  Are they afraid of cold?
(4)  Do you think Antarctica has changed a lot these years?
 
2       Listen and check your answers in Ex. 1.
Antarctica is the fi fth largest of the Earth’s seven continents. During the win-
ter it doubles in size because of the sea ice.
 
Antarctica is more than 95% covered in ice, and it has about 90% of the 
world’s fresh water. Because of its thick ice cover, it is the highest of all con-
tinents. The snow and ice of Antarctica are the purest in the world. There’s 
no pollution here.
 
Antarctica is the coldest continent. The lowest temperature, -88.3 de-
grees, was in 1960.
 
Antarctica is a true desert. Just 7cm of water falls annually. It hasn’t 
rained at the South Pole since 1,000,000 years ago. It has continuous day-
light during the summer and continuous darkness during the winter.
 
The surrounding ocean has a lot of living things. Large numbers of 
whales, seals and birds live here. But the most important inhabitant of 
Antarctica is the penguin. There are over twelve million penguins living 
there.

Since 1950, the temperatures on Antarctica have gone up by 0.1 °C ev-
ery ten years. This might not seem like much but it is having big impact on 
the world’s coldest continent! Large pieces of ice have begun breaking off 
the continent. They created huge floating icebergs in the ocean. In 2002, a 
piece of ice went into the sea. It was half of the size of Shanghai! Air pollu-
tion is causing temperatures to rise and the ice to melt.

We should call our planet “Ocean” instead of “Earth”. There is so much wa-
ter on it. Only about one-third of the planet is covered by land. The rest is 
covered by four huge areas of ocean.
The Pacific Ocean is the largest of the four oceans. The Pacific covers 
nearly one-third of the globe, an area of about 64 million square miles.
The Pacific Ocean is immense. We could fit all the continents into it. It 
has an average depth of 13,000 feet and it is approximately 11,000 miles 
wide at the equator.
The Pacific is the largest and deepest, and it is probably the most violent 
of all oceans. The Pacific Ocean has typhoons and nearly 300 active volca-
noes.

Expo China Pavilion. The Oriental Pearl TV Tower, like the Statue of Lib-
erty in New York, has already become a symbolic building and tourist at-
traction.
Shanghai has become an international metropolis. It has success-
fully hosted many international and domestic events. In 2010, Shanghai 
hosted the 41st World Expo and left a deep impression on many tourists

Make a compass
Why: If you are lost, you can use a compass to fi nd which direction you 
need to go!
What you need: a bowl of water, a large leaf, a piece of a paper clip.
How: Rub a paper clip very fast in your hair 10-20 times. Place the leaf in 
the middle of a bowl of water, making sure it does not touch the sides. 
Balance the paper clip in the center of the leaf. It will point towards the 
North and South Poles!

Some people believe that people in Britain are conservative because there are very 
little differences between the seasons. They have no climate but changeable weath-
er. Grassland is green all the year round. In daily life, English people often refuse 
to make sudden changes. They still measure things in feet, pounds, and gallons, 
though the European Union has made metric measures for most things. They think 
old buildings are the greatest places for offi ces. Many historic towns, villages, cathe-
drals, sites of interest and buildings in different architectural styles throughout the 
centuries have been preserved.
 
The Scotsmen have their national costume, “kilts”. They play special musical in-

After a confused silence, a voice volunteered, “I guess

People and the planet (1)
    
    4      Read the passage and fi ll in the form.
People are now damaging their planet. There are two main problems. The 
fi rst is the growth in population. The second is pollution.
 
Ten thousand years ago, the world had about 10 million people. By 1650 
there were 500 million; by 1930 2 billion; and by 2000 about 6 billion. Today 
the world’s population is over 7 billion. About three-quarters of the world’s 
population live in the poor “developing” countries. The rate of growth there 
is the highest. It is diffi cult to raise the standard of living in those countries. 
Population grows faster than the nation’s wealth.
 
3       Listen to the fi rst two parts together and answer the questions.
(1) Where do three-quarters of the world’s population live?
(2) Is the population in those countries rising or falling?

Serious pollution of the Earth began in the Industrial Revolution, but the effects 
weren’t obvious for many years. People didn’t begin to fear about their planet 
until 1980s. Natural resources are disappearing at a dangerous rate, including 
forest, fi sh, fresh water. Many plants and animals are going to be extinct.
Factories and machines pour dangerous gases into the air. In Scandina-
via, trees die and lakes are polluted by “acid rain”. Humans dump their waste 
into the sea. Oil from giant tankers kills sea life. We are harming our planet 
in so many ways. We must think of better ways to treat it in future.

Each year about 5 million people die because they are short of water sup-
plies and sanitation.
 
Only about 3 percent of the world’s water is fresh and most of that is 
in the polar icecaps. The rest appears very unevenly. The Great Lakes of 
North America alone hold 18% of the world’s fresh water. Water use is also 
uneven – a person in the USA uses over 300 litres of water per day on av-
erage, and a person in Madagascar uses less than 6 litres per day.
 
The quality of water is important to people because polluted water 
causes diseases. However, at present, one in fi ve people in the world has no 
satisfactory water supply and almost half lack clean water.

About 5 million people die each year because they don’t have _________

    Topic Discussion  
We can collect old bottles. We can recycle the glass and plastic and make raw 
materials. We can use the raw materials again and make new bottles. What 
do you think of recycling?
 
In 1700, a Frenchman Henri Misson 
visited Britain. He asked villagers why 
they nail horseshoes on their doors. They 
said that it was to keep witches away. 
Horseshoes are made of iron and they 
thought the strength of the iron could 
protect them from evil. Even today people 
think it can bring good luck. It’s tradition-
al for many brides to carry silver ones at 
their weddings. The position of the horse-
shoes is very important. It must point up-
wards like a cup so that the luck cannot 
fall out.

In winter I get up at night,
And dress by yellow candlelight.
In summer, quite the other way,
I have to go to bed by day.
I have to go to bed and see,
The birds still hopping on the tree,
Or hear the grown-up people’s feet,
Still going past me in the street.
And does it not seem hard to you,
When all the sky is clear and blue,
And I should like so much to play,
To have to go to bed by day?
