Solar stickers to power the world
As solar scientists, we love sunlight. It makes us
warm and brings us renewable energy. We often
discuss how wonderful it will be to collect and use
solar energy everywhere.
5 However, many people thought it was impossible.
The solar panel is made of solar cells on a very
heavy glass holder. We failed many times to make
it light, until pizza gave us an idea.
One night, we went for pizza after work and one

we succeeded!
Hopefully, one day we can stick these solar cells to the sides of buildings,

Claire, 12, dreamed of playing on her

heart sank.
5 Later, she told her mum the news. “I will just run around in a
funny costume instead of playing in the game! I had better give
up!” she cried.
“Things won’t always go your way, but disappointment can be good
for you. It’s all to do with how you respond,” her mum said.

field. “After all, players and mascots
perform on the same field, don’t they?”
She finally decided to work hard at

Through careful preparation, Claire
made a lovely sunflower costume. At the
first game, she put it on, took a deep breath, danced and ran around the
field. The crowd chanted happily, “Go! Go! Sunflower!” Claire felt as bright
20 as a sunflower.
After the game, she ran into the coach. He said, “We all love your costume.
Why not enter for the mascot designing competition? I’m sure you will
win!”
Well, with every disappointment comes a new chance!

Beeper① operator
Beep, beep! You’ve got a message on your
beeper. In the 1990s, it was common to call
a beeper operator to send the messages.
Being a beeper operator was a very popular
job in China back then. However, now
people use smartphones to send messages.
Grinder②
Grinders often went door to door to sharpen tools
like scissors, knives and so on. Fewer and fewer
people take up the job now because most people
find it easier and cheaper to buy tool sharpeners.
Open-air film projectionist③
From the 1960s to the 1970s open-air cinemas
became popular. The operator would set up a
screen and speakers, and use a special machine
called a projector to play the film. The audience
enjoyed the film while usually sitting on small
seats. Today people watch films at home or in
the cinema.

What is
the Internet of Things?
The Internet of Things (IoT) connects machines to the internet. They send
and receive information, talking to themselves and to other people. This
helps people solve problems before they arise①. Now, GPT② makes it
easier to design and manage IoT projects.
The smart home is one of the most common IoT projects. Smart devices
such as your washing machine, lights, music player, TV and air conditioner
can communicate with you. They can let you know when your washing
is done, when the temperature in your home is too high, or when your
favourite football match is on TV.
IoT will allow smart devices at home to better understand people’s
behaviour and even the feelings behind the behaviour.

“Sealed book” classic
returns to the screen
With a common goal, generations
of Chinese artists have managed
to keep The Legend of Sealed Book
alive. Thirty-eight years after
5 it first came out, the classic
animated film returned to the
screen in 2021.
The story comes from an old
Chinese legend. The hero, Eggborn,
10 fights three bad but silly foxes in
a brave and clever way. The story
is full of fun and imagination. It is
also meaningful because it teaches
children to help others.
82 上海教育出版社上海教育出版社

15 Artists bring the story to life by making the best use
of different Chinese art forms. They use ink wash
painting for mountains and rivers. The faces of many
characters come from Peking Opera face make-up. For
example, a young fox wears huadan make-up to look
20 prettier. Traditional customs like paper cutting and
lion dancing are also shown in the film. Each scene is
poem-like!
From the story to the pictures, the film gives younger
children a rich taste of the traditional Chinese culture,

The IFF has started a forum about teenagers’ views on popular films. You
want to leave a short review.
D1 Think Read Joe’s review. What does he like and dislike about the film?
18 Feb. Little Joe
I think everyone should watch Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s
Stone! I love watching Harry find a whole new world of magic
and make new friends. The special effects are also really great. All
the magic looks like it is real! The only thing I don’t like about the
film is that it can be a little hard to remember so many characters.
However, it is still a wonderful film and I strongly recommend it!

Influence of rivers Reading
Lin Dong is reading an article about rivers in a magazine.
C1 Predicting Look at the pictures of the River Thames and the Huangpu
River. What do they have in common?
C2 Read the magazine article.
The lifeblood of cities
The rich history of London comes into view when we travel on the River
Thames. It reminds me of the Huangpu River in Shanghai. The two
rivers have a lot in common.
The River Thames cruise passes famous places of interest like the Tower
5 of London and Big Ben. The boats on the Huangpu River in Shanghai
go past tourist attractions such as the Bund and Jin Mao Tower. When
you travel on the rivers, you can sense a mix of the old and new and feel
their power to shape the life of people in both of the two cities.
98 上海教育出版社上海教育出版社
6
The River Thames enters the North Sea while the Huangpu River flows into the
10 Yangtze River, making London and Shanghai the leading ports in the world.
They also help improve the environment, and provide water, fish and some
other food.
London and Shanghai are not alone as riverside cities. Almost every world-
class city is built along the banks of great rivers — Rome, Paris, Tokyo, to
15 name just a few. Rivers are the “lifeblood of cities”. They flow as quietly as
they come, nurturing cities on their way.

Mountains and rivers
in poems
Watching the Lu Mountain Falls
Li Bai
Purple smoke rises from the mountaintop,
The peak looks like an incense burner in the sunlight,
Far away I see the valley stretching before me.
The whole waterfall hangs there.
The torrent dropping three thousand feet
Straight down to the valley floor,
I think it must be the milky way
Spilling to the earth from the heavens.
(Translated by Wang Shouyi, John Knoepfle)
The River
Sara Teasdale
I came from the sunny valleys
And sought for the open sea,
For I thought in its gray expanses
My peace would come to me.
I came at last to the ocean
And found it wild and black,
And I cried to the windless valleys,
“Be kind and take me back!”
But the thirsty tide ran inland,
And the salt waves drank of me,
And I who was fresh as the rainfall
Am bitter as the sea.

Bridging cultures
Lu Yao found the news below very interesting. Read the news to see how the British
audience reacted① in the Chinese way when they were watching the Peking Opera
performances in London.
In the beginning, they watched Peking Opera like watching Western opera and sat
there quietly. When one scene finished, they applauded. But now they were more like
the Chinese audience. They would cheer “bravo” when actors showed up. They would
applaud the brilliant② parts. They would applaud the martial art performances.
They now realised that expressing your love by saying “bravo” in the middle of the
performances is welcomed and preferred, and I think this is the biggest change.

Food tells us about culture
People use the saying “as American as apple pie”
when talking about typical① American things
such as blue jeans, baseball and rock and roll
music. Apple pie is often served with ice cream
or cheese. Apples were an important food for the
early American settlers②. They were easy to grow
and store throughout the year. Many Americans believe John Chapman
made apples popular in the United States in the 19th century. John is also
known as “Johnny Appleseed”. His story has made apples and apple pie very
American.

The saying “as Canadian as maple syrup” describes
things that represent Canadian culture. The maple tree
is special to Canada. The maple leaf is on the national
flag of Canada. Maple syrup is known as liquid① gold.
It is made from the sweet sap② of the maple trees.
Most of the natural maple syrup comes from Quebec,
the French-speaking part of Canada. Canadians even
celebrate the Maple Syrup Festival.
Mexican food is popular all over the world. The history of
Mexican food dates back to thousands of years ago. Corn
and chilli peppers are the soul③ of Mexican cooking. Beans,
tomatoes and chicken are key ingredients too. One of
the most famous Mexican dishes is the taco. The phrase,
“echarse un taco”, meaning “to grab a taco”, has become so
common in Mexico that it now means getting any kind of
food.

Bridging cultures
Lu Yao is curious about how the art of gift-giving differs between China and
America. She is reading news stories to look for examples of gift-giving. Here is
one of them. Match the news with the item(s) in Lu Yao’s list.
Two Chinese sportsmen presented two American sportsmen with
gifts at the Olympic Winter Games Beijing 2022. The match was a
curling contest. The Chinese female curler gave two sets of pins④ to
the American sportsmen. The pins feature the mascot Bing Dwen
Dwen for the Olympic Winter Games Beijing 2022.
“The pins are beautiful and so special. We’ll remember this forever,”
said the American female curler.

Lu Yao’s list of gift-giving between China and America
1 Chinese and American cultures each have
several days connected with gift-giving. Many of
these days (such as weddings) are shared between
the two cultures.
2 In both cultures, any meaningful thing is
considered gift-worthy.
3 In Chinese culture, “pushing and shoving①”
when receiving a gift does not necessarily mean
that you don’t like the gift. This behaviour may
mean that you think the gift giver is being far too
kind.
4 In American culture, after one receives a gift, it is
not necessary to reply with another gift in return.
One can also choose to reply with a gift to show
care, respect and love.

Twenty Thousand Leagues ① Under the Sea is a classic
science fiction novel written by French author Jules Verne
(1828-1905) and published in 1869-1870. The story follows
the adventures of a French professor Pierre Aronnax, his
servant Conseil, and Canadian harpooner② Ned Land, as they
get caught by the strange Captain Nemo and taken to his
underwater ship, the Nautilus.
In the beginning of the story, strange things started
happening in the world’s oceans. People saw a scary monster
attacking ships in the sea. It made everyone very scared. No
one knew what it was or why it was doing this.
During the year 1866, the world was shocked to hear stories of a sea monster
attacking several ships that passed through the oceans. The governments of many
countries were quite interested in the matter. The monster was said to be much
larger than a whale. Most agreed that the monster’s shape was similar to that of a
whale, however. Some said the strange animal to be nearly two hundred feet long;
others promised the monster was more than a mile long.
On the 20th of July 1866, a great ship was leaving India for Australia when it
was hit by the strange animal, and sunk into the ocean, only five miles off the east
coast of Australia. Just three days later, in the Pacific Ocean, the sea animal attacked
another ship.
Right away after these scary events, people all over the world were talking about
the sea animal. Newspapers always had new stories about the monster. Scientists,
news reporters, and many others wrote many pages about their views on the newly
discovered sea monster. For six months, people talked of nothing but the strange
animal.
During the first months of the year 1867, however, interest in the sea monster
seemed to decrease③ a great deal. People were no longer curious to read about
the sea monster, until the 5th of March 1867, when another ship, Canadian,
had been hit. Now, however, people began to believe this sea monster was not
an animal, but rather a small island in the sea that floated④ to different places
in the ocean. The ship, though, had not been hit terribly; it returned to its port
for repairs. Had the ship hit a rock under water? No one knew, but after a close
examination, it was found that part of the ship’s bottom was broken. As this

ship’s accident was not serious, it should have been forgotten. But three weeks
later, another ship was hit again in the same manner.
Organise my reading
When you are reading a story, it is helpful to draw a plot outline to have a general
understanding.
An outline shows the structure of a story. With its help, you can easily find out the
stages and important moments in the development of the story. Usually, the main
plot has a beginning, a middle and an ending — the structure of the starting event,
problem, and solution for this story.
In this novel, the main plot can be divided into several parts, called subplots.
Remember that each subplot has its own little journey.
Go ahead and drop everything you read into the table below for every subplot as
well as the main plot.

The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is an 1876 novel by
Mark Twain (1835-1910) about a boy growing up along
the Mississippi River. In the novel, Tom Sawyer has several
adventures, often with his friend Huckleberry Finn.
A fun-loving boy, Tom misses school to go swimming
and is made to paint his aunt’s fence① for the whole of
the next day, Saturday, as punishment. Tom cleverly gets
several children who live near him to paint his aunt’s
fence by making them pay.
Tom Sawyer lived with his aunt because his mother and father were dead. Tom
didn’t like going to school, and he didn’t like working. He liked playing and having
adventures. One Friday, he didn’t go to school — he went to the river. Aunt Polly was
angry.
Aunt Polly: You’re a bad boy! Tomorrow you can’t play with your friends because
you didn’t go to school today. Tomorrow you’re going to work for
me. You can paint the fence.
Saturday morning, Tom was not happy, but he started to paint the fence. His friend
Jim was in the street.
Tom: Do you want to paint?
Jim: No, I can’t. I’m going to get water.
Then Ben came to Tom’s house. He watched Tom.
Ben: I’m going to swim today. You can’t swim because you’re working.
Tom points out that it is not exactly work if he is enjoying himself, and he makes
a great show of applying whitewash② and then stepping back to admire his own
effects③. When Ben wants to try his hand at whitewashing, Tom pretends to be
reluctant④ until Ben offers him first the core⑤ of the apple and then the entire⑥
apple.
Tom: This isn’t work. I like painting.
Ben: Can I paint too?

Tom: No, you can’t. Aunt Polly asked me because I’m a very good
painter.
Ben: I’m a good painter too. Please, can I paint? I have some fruit. Do
you want it?
Tom: OK, give me the fruit. Then you can paint.
Ben started to paint the fence. Later, many boys came to Tom’s house. They
watched Ben, and they wanted to paint too.
Tom stayed in the yard, and the boys painted. They painted the fence three times. It
was beautiful and white.
By the middle of the afternoon, the fence was whitewashed (by the other boys), and
Tom found himself a rich man, having collected marbles①, a part of a Jew's harp②, a
kite, and many other items as payment from the boys doing the work.
Tom said to himself that it was not such a simple world, after all. He had found out
a great law of human action, without knowing it, that in order to make a man or a
boy want a thing, it is only necessary to make the thing difficult to get. He realised
that Work is what someone is made to do, and that Play is something someone is not
made to do.

Hope Is the Thing with Feathers ① is a poem by Emily Elizabeth Dickinson (1830-
1886), who was an American poet. Little-known during her lifetime, she has since
been regarded② as one of the most important poets in American poetry.
Hope is the thing with feathers
That hides in our hearts,
And sings the song without the words,
And never stops at all.
And sweetest in the storm is heard;
And sore must be the storm
That could upset③ the little bird
That kept so many warm.
I’ve heard it in the coldest land,
And on the strangest sea;
Yet, never, in extremity④,
It asked a bit of me.
① feather 羽毛 ② regard 将……认为 ③ upset 使……沮丧 ④ extremity 极限；极度

Notes
Unit 1
(Page 19) With that, we can power the world.
译文：有了它，我们就能为整个世界提供电能。
注释：句中的power作动词用，表达“提供动力”的意思，在此处的语境中表
示“提供电能”。“the world”是虚指，表示“世界上形形色色的事物”，说明太阳能
的应用会非常广泛，表达了作者对该项发明光明前景的展望。
power也用作名词，表示“能量；力量”，如：solar power（太阳能），wind
power（风能）等。
e.g. He hit the ball with as much power as he could. 他用尽全力击球。
Unit 2
1. (Page 35) ..., with every disappointment comes a new chance!
译文：……伴随每一次失望而来的是全新的机会！
注释：本句为倒装句结构。句首的with every disappointment 是介词短语，
做状语，comes a new chance 为倒装结构。在英语中，常常为了保持句子结构的
平衡或表示强调而使用倒装结构。
e.g. With age comes wisdom. 随着年龄的增长，智慧也随之而来。
2. (Page 40) Sometimes, it is helpful to speak out bravely instead of keeping
back our feelings.
译文：有时候，勇敢地说出来，不压抑自己的感受，是有益处的。
注释：句中的keep back 表示“抑制（或阻止）感情等的流露”，例如：keep
back tears（忍住泪水）。此外，keep back还表示“隐瞒”，例如：He is keeping back
something about what has happened.关于已发生的事，他是有所隐瞒的。
Unit 4
1. (Page 62) Tech Expo
译文：科技博览会
上海教育出版社 119上海教育出版社
注释：Tech Expo 是Technology Exposition的缩写，意为“科技博览会”。这类
词通常由一个描述展会主题的词和Expo、Exhibition、Show或Fair等表示展览会
的词结合而成。例如： Auto Expo（汽车展览会），Book Fair（书展），Game Show
（游戏展），Art Exhibition（艺术展）。
2. (Page 65) The smart bed can rock you to sleep!
译文：智能床可以摇晃着让你入睡！
注释：句中的rock是一个动词，其基本含义是“（使）轻轻摇晃，缓缓摆动”。
这个词通常用来描述柔和且循环往复的移动，与人们摇晃摇篮来帮助婴儿入睡的
动作类似，以此体现智能床的特殊功能，即通过模拟摇摆动作来促进睡眠，形象
地表现这种智能床的舒适性。
3. (Page 66) Smart homes “talk” to us and guide our activities.
译文：智能家居与我们“交流”并指导我们的活动。
注释：句中的talk是拟人的用法，用来描述智能家居通过它们的功能和反馈
与用户进行交流。
Unit 5
(Page 81) You’ll cry an ocean for sure!
译文：你一定会痛哭流涕！
注释：句中的cry an ocean 是习语，与cry a great deal 同义，是一种比较夸张
的说法。
Unit 6
1. (Page 96) Would you like to try your luck on a frozen river?
译文：你想在冰冻的河面上试试运气吗？
注释：该句通过“Would you like ...?”的句型礼貌询问对方是否对在冰冻的河
面上尝试钓鱼感兴趣。try one’s luck有尝试依赖运气或偶然性来达到某个目标的
含义，此处指冰上钓鱼项目是否有收获是要凭借运气的。
120 上海教育出版社上海教育出版社
2. (Page 99) They flow as quietly as they come, nurturing cities on their way.
译文：河流静静地流淌着，一路滋养着所经之处的城市。
注释： nurturing 使用了比喻手法，把河流比喻成抚养孩子成长的母亲，生动
描述了河流对城市的滋养和培育。as quietly as是as ... as的结构，用来比较河流
的流动方式，强调它们安静平缓的流动状态。

before nouns.
“形容词性物主代词”是表示所有权的形容词，包括my、your、our、his、her、its和
their等。它们出现在名词之前，对该名词进行描述。
e.g. His job is a doctor.
134 上海教育出版社上海教育出版社
Possessive pronouns also show ownership. They are used alone. They include words
like mine, yours, ours, his, hers and theirs.
“名词性物主代词”也表示所有权，包括mine、yours、ours、his、hers和theirs等
词，是单独使用的。
e.g. They like their jobs. We like ours.
Possessive nouns are nouns that show possession. In most cases, possessive nouns
are formed by adding “an apostrophe(’) + s” to the noun, or if the noun is plural and
already ends in “s”, only an apostrophe needs to be added.
“名词所有格”是表示所有权的名词。通常情况下，所有格名词由名词后加“撇号
（’）+s”构成，如果名词是以“s”结尾的复数形式，只需加一个撇号。
e.g. the boy’s dog, students’ books
Rule 1: In singular nouns (a person, a place, a thing or an idea), we add “an
apostrophe+s” after the noun.
单数名词（表示某人、某地、某事或某想法）后加“撇号+s”。
e.g. Mary’s dog
Rule 2: In irregular plural nouns like “men” and “children”, we add “an apostrophe + s”
to show possession.
不规则复数名词（如men和children）后，加“撇号+s”表示所有格。
e.g. Children’s Day
