A STUDENT OF AFRICAN WILDLIFE

3

It is 5:45 am and the sun is just rising over Gombe National Park in East Africa. Following Jane's way of studying chimps, our group are 4

5

all going to visit them in the forest. Jane has studied these families 6

of chimps for many years and helped people understand how much they behave 7

like humans. Watching a family of chimps wake up is our first activity 8

of the day. This means going back to the place where we left the family 9

sleeping in a tree the night before. Everybody sits and waits in the shade 10

of the trees while the family begins to wake up and move off. Then we 11

follow as they wander into the forest. Most of the time, chimps either 12

feed or clean each other as a way of showing love in their family. Jane 13

warns us that our group is going to be very tired and dirty by the afternoon 14

and she is right. However, the evening makes it all worthwhile. We watch 15

the mother chimp and her babies play in the tree. Then we see them go 16

to sleep together in their nest for the night. We realize that the bond 17

between members of a chimp family is as strong as in a human family.

18

Nobody before Jane fully understood chimp behaviour. She spent years observing and recording their daily activities. Since her childhood

19

20

she had wanted to work with animals in their own environment. However, this was not easy. When she first arrived in Gombe in 1960, it was unusual

21

22

for a woman to live in the forest. Only after her mother came to help 23

her for the first few months was she allowed to begin her project. Her 24

work changed the way people think about chimps. For example, one important 25

thing she discovered was that chimps hunt and eat meat. Until then 26

everyone had thought chimps ate only fruit and nuts. She actually observed

chimps as a group hunting a monkey and then eating it. She also discovered

27

28

how chimps communicate with each other, and her study of their body

29

language helped her work out their social system.

30

For forty years Jane Goodall has been outspoken about making the

31

rest of the world understand and respect the life of these animals. She

32

has argued that wild animals should be left in the wild and not used for

entertainment or advertisements. She has helped to set up special places 33

34

where they can live safely. She is leading a busy life but she says: "Once

35

I stop, it all comes crowding in and I remember the chimps in laboratories.

It's terrible. It affects me when I watch the wild chimps. I say to myself,

36

37

'Aren't they lucky?" And then I think about small chimps in cages though

38

they have done nothing wrong. Once you have seen that you can never

39

forget ..."

40

She has achieved everything she wanted to do: working with

41

animals in their own environment, gaining a doctor's degree and showing

that women can live in the forest as men can. She inspires those who want

42

43

to cheer the achievements of women.

44

WHY NOT CARRY ON HER GOOD WORK?

45

I enjoyed English, biology, and chemistry at school, but which one

46

should I choose to study at university? I did not know the answer until

47

one evening when I sat down at the computer to do some research on great

48

women of China.

49

By chance I came across an article about a doctor called Lin

50

Qiaozhi, a specialist in women's diseases. She lived from 1901 to 1983.

51

It seemed that she had been very busy in her chosen career, travelling 52

abroad to study as well as writing books and articles. One of them caught 53

my eye. It was a small

54

book explaining how to cut the death rate from having and caring for babies. She gave some simple rules to follow for keeping babies clean,

55

56

healthy and free from sickness. Why did she write that? Who were the women 57

that Lin Qiaozhi thought needed this advice? I looked carefully at the text and

58

59

realized that it was intended for women in the countryside. Perhaps 60

if they had an emergency they could not reach a doctor.

61

Suddenly it hit me how difficult it was for a woman to get medical 62

training at that time. That was a generation when girls' education was 63

always placed second to boys'. Was she so much cleverer than anyone else?

Further reading made me realize that it was hard work and determination

64

65

as well as her gentle nature that got her into medical school. What made 66

her succeed later on was the kindness and consideration she showed to all her patients. There was story after story of how Lin Qiaozhi, tired

67

68

after a day's work, went late at night to deliver a baby for a poor family 69

who could not pay her.

70

By now I could not wait to find out more about her. I discovered 71

that Lin Qiaozhi had devoted her whole life to her patients and had chosen 72

not to have a family of her own. Instead she made sure that about 50,000 73

babies were safely delivered. By this time I was very excited. Why not 74

study at medical college like Lin Qiaozhi and carry on her good work?

75

It was still not too late for me to improve my studies, prepare for the

76

university entrance examinations, and….

A PIONEER FOR ALL PEOPLE

79

Although he is one of China's most famous scientists, Yuan Longping considers himself a farmer, for he works the land to do his

80

81

research. Indeed, his sunburnt face and arms and his slim, strong body 82

are just like those of millions of Chinese farmers, for whom he has struggled for the past five decades. Dr Yuan Longping grows what is called

83

84

super hybrid rice. In 1974, he became the first agricultural pioneer in 85

the world to grow rice that has a high output. This special strain of 86

rice makes it possible to produce one-third more of the crop in the same 87

fields. Now more than 60% of the rice produced in China each year is from 88

this hybrid strain.

Born into a poor farmer's family in 1930, Dr Yuan graduated from

89

90

Southwest Agricultural College in 1953. Since then, finding ways to grow 91

more rice has been his life goal. As a young man, he saw the great need for increasing the rice output. At that time, hunger was a disturbing

92

93

problem in many parts of the countryside. Dr Yuan searched for a way to 94

increase rice harvests without expanding the area of the fields. In 1950, 95

Chinese farmers could produce only fifty million tons of rice. In a recent 96

harvest, however, nearly two hundred million tons of rice was produced.

97

These increased harvests mean that 22% of the world's people are fed from 98

just 7% of the farmland in China. Dr Yuan is now circulating his knowledge 99

in India, Vietnam and many other less developed countries to increase 100

their rice harvests. Thanks to his research, the UN has more tools in

the battle to rid the world of hunger. Using his hybrid rice, farmers 101

102

are producing harvests twice as large as before.

103

Dr Yuan is quite satisfied with his life. However, he doesn't

104

care about being famous. He feels it gives him less freedom to do his

105

research. He would much rather keep time for his hobbles. He enjoys

106

listening to violin music, playing mah-jong, swimming and reading.

Spending money on himself or leading a comfortable life also means very 107

108

little to him. Indeed, he believes that a person with too much money has

109

more rather than fewer troubles. He therefore gives millions of yuan to

equip others for their research in agriculture.

110

111

Just dreaming for things, however, costs nothing. Long ago Dr

112

yuan had a dream about rice plants as tall as sorghum. Each ear of rice

113

was as big as an ear of corn and each grain of rice was as huge as a peanut.

114

Dr Yuan awoke from his dream with the hope of producing a kind of rice

115

that could feed more people. Now, many years later, Dr Yuan has another

dream: to export his rice so that it can be grown around the globe. One 116

117

dream is not always enough, especially for a person who loves and cares

118

for his people.

119

120

CHEMICAL OR ORGANIC FARMING?

121

Over the past half century, using chemical fertilizers has become very

122

common in farming. Many farmers welcomed them as a great way to stop crop

disease and increase production. Recently, however, scientists have been 123

124

finding that long-term use of these fertilizers can cause damage to the

125

land and, even more dangerous, to people's health.

126

What are some of the problems caused by chemical fertilizers? 127

First, they damage the land by killing the helpful bacteria and pests 128

as well as the harmful ones. Chemicals also stay in the ground and underground water for a long time. This affects crops and, therefore, 129

130

animals and humans, since chemicals get inside the crops and cannot just 131

be washed off. These chemicals in the food supply build up in people's bodies over time. Many of these chemicals can lead to cancer or other 132

133

illnesses. In addition, fruit, vegetables and other food grown with 134

chemical fertilizers usually grow too fast to be full of much nutrition. 135

They may look beautiful, but inside there is usually more water than 136

vitamins and minerals.

137

With these discoveries, some farmers and many customers are beginning to turn to organic farming. Organic farming is simply farming 138

139

without using any chemicals. They focus on keeping their soil rich and 140

free of disease. A healthy soil reduces disease and helps crops grow strong and healthy. Organic farmers, therefore, often prefer using 141

142

natural waste from animals as fertilizer. They feel that this makes the 143

soil in their fields richer in minerals and so more fertile. This also 144

keeps the air, soil, water and crops free from chemicals.

145

Organic farmers also use many other methods to keep the soil 146

fertile. They often change the kind of crop in each field every few years, 147

for example, growing corn or wheat and then the next year peas or soybeans. 148

Crops such as peas or soybeans put important minerals back into the soil, 149

making it ready for crops such as wheat or corn that need rich and fertile

150

soil. Organic farmers also plant crops to use different levels of soil, 151

for example, planting peanuts that use the ground's surface followed by 152

vegetables that put down deep roots. Some organic farmers prefer planting 153

grass between crops to prevent wind or water from carrying away the soil, and then leaving it in the ground to become a natural fertilizer for the 154

155

next year's crop. These many different organic farming methods have the 156

same goal: to grow good food and avoid damaging the environment or people's health.

A MASTER OF NONVERBAL HUMOUR

160

As Victor Hugo once said, "Laughter is the sun that drives winter 161

from the human face", and up to now nobody has been able to do this better 162

than Charlie Chaplin. He brightened the lives of Americans and British through two world wars and the hard years in between. He made people laugh 163

164

at a time when they felt depressed, so they could feel more content with 165

their lives.

Not that Charlie's own life was easy! He was born in a poor family 166

167

in 1889. His parents were both poor music hall performers. You may find 168

it astonishing that Charlie was taught to sing as soon as he could speak 169

and dance as soon as he could walk. Such training was common in acting 170

families at this time, especially when the family income was often 171

uncertain. Unfortunately his father died, leaving the family even worse 172

off, so Charlie spent his childhood looking after his sick mother and 173

his brother. By his teens, Charlie had, through his humour, become one 174

of the most popular child actors in England. He could mime and act the

But he became inspired when he tho ught about helping ordinary people exposed to cholera. This was the deadly dise ase of its day. Neither its cause nor its cure was understood. So many thousand s of terrified people died every time there was an outbreak. John Snow wanted t o face the challenge and solve this problem. He knew that cholera would never b e controlled until its cause was found. He became interested in two theories that possibly explained how cholera ki lled people. The first suggested that cholera multiplied in the air. A cloud of dangerous gas floated around until it found its victims. The second suggested that people absorbed this disease into their bodies with their meals. From the stomach the disease quickly attacked the body and soon the affected person die d. John Snow suspected that the second theory was correct but he needed eviden ce. So when another outbreak hit London in 1854, he was ready to begin his enqu iry. As the disease spread quickly through poor neighbourhoods, he began to gat her information. In two particular streets, the cholera outbreak was so severe that more than 500 people died in ten days. He was determined to find out why. First he marked on a map the exact places where all the dead people had liv ed. This gave him a valuable clue about the cause of the disease. Many of the d eaths were near the water pump in Broad Street (especially numbers 16, 37, 38 a nd 40). He also noticed that some houses (such as 20 and 21 Broad Street and 8 and 9 Cambridge Street) had had no deaths. He had not foreseen this, so he made further investigations. He discovered that these people worked in the pub at 7 Cambridge Street. They had been given free beer and so had not drunk the water from the pump. It seemed that the water was to blame. Next, John Snow looked into the source of the water for these two streets. He found that it came from the river polluted by the dirty water from London. H e immediately told the astonished people in Broad Street to remove the handle f rom the pump so that it could not be used. Soon afterwards the disease slowed d own. He had shown that cholera was spread by germs and not in a cloud of gas. In another part of London, he found supporting evidence from two other deat hs that were linked to the Broad Street outbreak. A woman, who had moved away f rom Broad Street, liked the water from the pump so much that she had it deliver ed to her house every day. Both she and her daughter died of cholera after drin king the water. With this extra evidence John Snow was able to announce with ce rtainty that polluted water carried the virus.

Module 1 Reading The City of the Future What will the city of the future look like No one knows for sure, and making predictions is a risky business. But one thing is certain— they are going to get bigger before they get smaller. In the future, care for the environment will become very important as earth's natural resources run out. We will use lots of recycled materials, such as plastic, aluminium, steel, glass, wood and paper, and we will waste fewer natural resources. We will also have to rely more on alternative energy, such as solar and wind power. All this seems certain, but there are plenty of things about city life in the future which are not certain. To find out what young people think about the future of urban life, a teacher at a university in Texas in the United States asked his students to think how they would run a city of 50,000 people in the year 2025. Here are some of the ideas they had: Garbage ships To get rid of garbage problems, the city will load huge spaceships with waste materials and send them towards the sun, preventing landfill and environmental problems. Batman Nets Police will arrest criminals by firing nets instead of guns.

-必修 5 Unit 2 The United Kingdom Reading PUZZLES IN GEOGRAPHY People may wonder why different words are used to describe these four countries: England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. You can clarify this question if you study British history. First there was England. Wales was linked to it in the thirteenth century. Now when people refer to England you find Wales included as well. Next England and Wales were joined to Scotland in the seventeenth century and the name was changed to "Great Britain". Happily this was accomplished without conflict when King James of Scotland became King of England and Wales as well. Finally the English government tried in the early twentieth century to form the United Kingdom by getting Ireland connected in the same peaceful way. However, the southern part of Ireland was unwilling and broke away to form its own government. So only Northern Ireland joined with England, Wales and Scotland to become the United Kingdom and this was shown to the world in a new flag called the Union Jack. To their credit the four countries do work together in some areas (eg, the currency and international relations), but they still have very different institutions. For example, Northern Ireland, England and Scotland have different educational and legal systems as well as different football teams for competitions like the World Cup! England is the largest of the four countries, and for convenience it is divided roughly into three zones. The zone nearest France is called the South of England, the middle zone is called the Midlands and the one nearest to Scotland is known as the North. You find most of the population settled in the south, but most of the industrial cities in the Midlands and the North of England. Although, nationwide, these cities are not as large as those in China, they have world-famous football teams and some of them even have two! It is a pity that the industrial cities built in the nineteenth century do not attract visitors. For historical architecture you have to go to older but smaller towns built by the Romans. There you will find out more about British history and culture. The greatest historical treasure of all is London with its museums, art collections, theatres, parks and buildings. It is the centre of national
