The color of each mascot was chosen in line with the colors of the Olympic Rings.

T: I am very glad you have known so much about the Olympic Games.

Step III Pre-reading

T: Today we will read an article: “AN INTERVIEW” from which you can learn more about the Olympic Games. Before reading, please answer the 3 questions on page 9.

First let the Ss discuss the three questions, and then collect answers from the students.

T: Yes! We all feel proud of it! Look at the title and the pictures and predict the content.

S: Maybe an ancient writer is interviewing someone in modern times to know more about the information about the modern Olympic Games.

T: Then read it quickly and see if you were right.

S: Yes, I got it!

T: Congratulations! That’s all for this part. Let’s come to Reading on Page 11.

Step IV Reading

Listen to the tape to get the general idea.

T: First listen to the tape, paying attention to pronunciation and intonation, and try to get the general idea of the passage.

While playing the tape, the teacher goes around the classroom.

T: Have you got the main idea?

S: Yes, it tells us the differences and the similarities of the ancient and modern Olympics.

T: Very good. Now can you find the differences and the similarities of the ancient and modern Olympics? Read the passage carefully and find the answers. I will give you six minutes to finish it.

Six minutes later.

T: First let’s talk about the similarities between the ancient and modern Olympic s. Any volunteers?

S1: Both are held every four years.

S3: The beliefs are the same. They are: Swifter, Higher, and Stronger.

S4: Men are allowed to take part both in ancient and modern Olympics.

T: The five students have given us the similarities. Who can describe the differences? S6: There were not Winter Olympics in the past.

S7: Now competitors are from all over the world. But in the ancient times, only the people in Greece could take part the Olympics Games.

S8: Only men were allowed to take part in the past, now women are also allowed.

S10: The events and athletes in modern time are more than those in the past.

S11: There is a special village for the competitors to live in, a stadium for competitions, a gymnasium for those who watch the games now. But there were not such places in the ancient times.

T: Just now we have discussed the differences and the similarities of the ancient and modern Olympics. I think you have learned much about the Olympic Games. Can you describe the ancient and modern Olympic Games in your own words? You can refer to the questions in Warming up on page 9.Think about them and try to describe them.

A few minutes later.

T: Who would like to have a try to describe the ancient Olympics?

S1: The ancient Olympic Games began in Greece and were held from 776 B.C. to

A.D. 393. It was held every four years. At that time, there were not so many sports

as today. And women were not allowed to take part in the games. There were not Winter Olympics at that time. Winners got the olive wreath as the prize. The

motto was Swifter, Higher and Stronger.

T: Good! Who would like to have a try to describe the modern Olympics?

S2: The modern Olympic Games began in 1896. They’re held every four years. There are many new sports in the Olympics. In the Summer Olympics there are over 250 different sports. Women are not only allowed to join in but also play a very

important role. Now the competitors compete for medals. The motto is Swifter,

Higher and Stronger.

T: Very good. Now let’s come to Part 1 of Comprehending on Page 11. You c an fill in the form by yourselves. Then look at the 3 questions in Part 2. Please read the passage again to answer to the questions.

Ask some students to answer the questions and at the same time check the answers. T: What amazed Pausanias about the Olympic Games?

S: All countries can take part in the Olympic Games.

S: There are over 250 sports and women are allowed to join in now.

S: There is much modern equipment.

T: Yes! All these things amazed Pausanias about the Olympic Games. Why does he think Athens and Beijing should feel proud?

S: It’s just as much a competition to host the Olympics as to win an Olympic medal. T: Good! Why does he think people may be competing for money in modern Olympic Games?

S: Because the olive wreath has been replaced by medals, and the medals perhaps have something to do with money.

T: Good! I am glad you have understood this article very well.

Step V The analysis of the passage

Language points:

1. I lived in what you call “Ancient Greece”.

This sentence is an Objective Clause led by what. ‘what you call “Ancient Greece” ’ is served as the object of in. “What”is served as the object of call. It can’t be replaced with other words.

e.g. I will do what I can to help you.

2. every four years = every fourth year

3. Women are not only allowed to join in but play a very important role, especially in...

allow sb. to do sth.

e.g. His mother doesn’t allow him to go out.

e.g. We won’t allow smoking here.

join in It means taking part in a kind of activity.

join: to be a member of sth.

play a role in = play a part in

4. as well as=and

e.g. On Sundays, his landlady provided dinner as well as breakfast.

Note: If the phrase joins two parts as the subject, the verb form should agree with the first subject.

5. It’s a great honor.

There are some other words like it: success, failure, shock, surprise

e.g. He’s an honor of his family.

Main idea

T: We have finished the passage. I will ask a student to sum up what we have learned. S: Through the comparison between the ancient and modern Olympic Games, we have learned the differences and the similarities between them. Now we can have a deep understanding of the Games. From the passage, we can also know that the Olympic Games are developing and improving. It’s our duty to make the Olympic Games better and healthier. We know that the principal in 2008 Beijing Olympic Games is Green Olympic Games. It shows that people are paying more and more attention to our environment.

Writing skills

This passage introduces the Olympic Games in a very interesting way. It adopts the dialogue between Pausanias who lived in 2000 years ago and a Chinese girl in modern world. Through their dialogue, the differences and similarities between the ancient and modern Olympic Games are made well known to the readers. The questions in

Warming up and Pre-reading are also served as the references to the passage. In all, this part is written with a clear clue to realize the aim of introducing the Olympic Games.

Step VI Discussion

T: Discuss this question in groups: Why do many countries want to host the Olympic Games while others do not? Use the mind map below to help you. Then prepare for a class discussion. Put forward your ideas and give reasons for your choices.

T: Why do many countries want to host the Olympic Games?

S: Hosting the games has a major effect on the economy and brings international prestige to the country. Thousands and thousands of visitors come to the games and the host cities are permanently improved. By planting trees and creating parks, the city becomes more attractive for tourists.

S: It helps to strengthen the spirit of patriotism and also can create more job opportunities and improve the quality of employment.

S: The Olympic Games is the world's largest and highest level, and most widely influential sports event. The people of all countries enhance mutual understanding and friendship and safeguarding peace in the world event. Besides, the hosting of the Olympic Games is not only a country's comprehensive strength of the comprehensive test, but also to expand a country’ influence around the world, and at the same time promote their own development as a good opportunity.

T: Well done! Why do many countries don’t want to host the Olympic Games?

S: Preparing for the Olympics Games is a huge undertaking. Just like the athletes, the host city spends years getting ready for the event. Before deciding which city will host the Olympic Games, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) has to examine bids from all over the world. Bidding for the games begins about ten years in advance. Without preparing a very strong bid1, a city will not win the competition to host the games.

S: Hosting the Olympic Games take so long time and so much money to prepare.

Building the infrastructure costs huge amounts of money. Holding the World Cup in 2002 in Japan and South Korea, for example, meant that ten new stadiums had

to be built, as well as many hotels and an improved transport system. In Beijing, after winning the bid, the government began major construction projects — the extension of the underground, the improvement of the airport and the building of new motorways. Each host city must also build an Olympic village for the

athletes.

S: Too many visitors may do harm to the environment of the city, in addition, the venues and buildings may be wasted after the Olympic Games.

T: Well done! As every coin has two sides, hosting the Olympic Games has its advantages and disadvantages. For our powerful China, it is a good opportunity to host the Olympic Games which can benefit us a lot.

Frederick William Ⅰ，the King of Prussia , could never have imagined that his greatest gift to the Russian people would have such an amazing history . This gift was the Amber Room , which was given this name because several tons of amber were used to make it . The amber which was selected had a beautiful yellow-brown colour like honey . The design of the room was in the fancy style popular in those days . It was also a treasure decorated with gold and jewels , which took the country's best artists about ten years to make . In fact , the room was not made to be a gift . It was designed for the palace of Frederick Ⅰ. However, the next King of Prussia , Frederick William Ⅰ,to whom the amber room belonged, decided not to keep it. In 1716 he gave it to Peter the Great. In return , the Czar sent him a troop of his best soldiers. So the Amber Room because part of the Czar's winter palace in St Petersburg.About four metres long, the room served as a small reception hall for important visitors . Later,Catherine Ⅱhad the Amber Room moved to a palace outside St Petersburg where she spent her summers. She told her artists to add more details to it .In 1770 the room was completed the way she wanted . Almost six hundred candles lit the room ,and its mirrors and pictures shone like gold. Sadly , although the Amber Room was considered one of the wonders of the world , it is now missing . In September 1941, the Nazi army was near St Petersburg . This was a time when the two countries were at war . Before the Nazis could get to the summer palace , the Russians were able to remove some furniture and small art objects from the Amber Room . However , some of the Nazis secretly stole the room itself . In less than two days 100,000 pieces were put inside twenty-seven woooden boxs . There is no doubt that the boxs were then put on a train for Konigsberg, which was at that time a German city on the Baltic Sea . After that, what happened to the Amber Room remains a mystery . Recently , the Russians and Germans have built a new Amber Room at the summer palace . By studying old photos of the former Amber Room , they have made the new one look like the old one .In 2003 it was ready for the people of St Petersburg when they celebrated the 300th birthday of their city . A FACT OR AN OPINION? What is a fact? Is it something that people believe? No. A fact is anything that can be proved. For example, it can be proved that China has more people than any other country in the world. This is a fact. Then what is an opinion? An opinion is what someone believes is true but has not been proved. So an opinion is not good evidence in a trial. For example, it is an opinion if you say “Cats are better pets than dogs”. It may be true, but it is difficult to prove. Some people may not agree with this opinion but they also cannot prove that they are right. In a trial, a judge must decide which eyewit nesses to believe and which not to believe. The judge does not consider what each eyewitness looks like or where that person lives or works. He/she only cares about whether the eyewitness has given true information, which must be facts rather than opinions. This kind of information is called evidence. Unit 2 AN INTERVIEW Pausanias, who was a Greek writer about 2,000 years ago, has come on a magical journey on March 18th 2007 to find out about the present-day Olympic Games. He is now interviewing Li Yan, a volunteer for the 2008 Olympic Games.

第一单元文化遗产 阅读一 寻找琥珀 普鲁士国王腓特烈·威廉一世从未想过他送个普鲁士人民伟大的礼物会有一点如此惊奇的历史。这个礼物是因为由几吨琥珀制成而命名的琥珀屋。这些被挑选的琥珀都有着像蜂蜜一样漂亮的黄棕色。这间屋的设计是当时最流行的奇特的风格。这同样是一件花了当时最好的艺术家大约十年用黄金和珠宝修饰制成的宝物。 事实上，这间屋不是制来当礼物的。这是为腓特烈一世的领土而设计的。然而，普鲁士下一任国王同样是琥珀屋的拥有者，腓特烈威廉一世决定不保留琥珀屋。在1716年他把琥珀屋送给了彼得大帝。作为报答，沙皇给了腓特烈一队他最好的士兵。因此琥珀屋成为了沙皇避寒圣地圣彼得堡的一部分。琥珀屋作为一个大概四米长的只为重要访客的小接待处。 后来，叶卡捷琳娜二世把琥珀屋在圣彼得堡之外的一个她避暑的地方。她让她的艺术家加了跟多的细节在里面。在1770年琥珀屋完全成了她想要的样子。接近600只蜡烛在屋内燃烧着，把镜子和图画都照得像金子一样。令人伤心的，虽然被誉为是世界奇迹之一的琥珀屋现在丢失了。 在1941年9月，纳粹军队在圣彼得堡附近。这正是两个国家在交战的时候。在纳粹去到避暑地方之前，俄国人民能够从琥珀屋里搬走一些家具和小的艺术品。然而，一些纳粹神秘的偷走了琥珀屋。至少两天内100000多片琥珀被放进27个木箱里。这些箱子无疑会被放进一艘去往当时德军驻扎的菠萝的海的哥尼斯堡的船上。之后，琥珀屋发生了神马仍然是个迷。 最近，俄国和德国人民在避暑的地方制造了一座新的琥珀屋。通过研究之前的琥珀屋的照片，他们制造了一座新的琥珀屋像旧的那座一样。在2003年它被圣彼得堡的人民用来庆祝这座城市的300岁生日。 阅读二 一个事实还是一个观点 神马是事实？是一些人们相信的东西吗？不！事实是可以被证明的任何事。例如，可以证明中国人口比世界上任何其他国家的人口都要多。这是一个事实。 那么神马是一个观点？一个观点是人们相信那是真的但还没有被证明的。所以一个观点在一个审判中不是一个好的证据。例如，如果你说“猫是比狗好的宠物”这会是一个观点。这可能是真的，不过很难去证明。一些人可能不同意这个观点不过他们也不能去证明他们是对的。在一场审批中，一个审判官一定要去决定相信哪个目击者哪个目击者不应该相信。这个审判官不会去考虑每个目击者的长相或人们在哪里居住或工作。他/她只关心目击者是否会提供真是的信息，信息一定是事实而不是观点。这类的信息被称为证据。 第二单元奥林匹克运动会 阅读一 一个采访 大约2000年前的一个希腊作者帕萨尼亚斯(P)，在2007年3月18日踏上了一段魔幻的旅程去查明关于现代的奥林匹克运动会。他正在采访一个2008年奥林匹克运动会志愿者李岩(L)。 P:我是帕萨尼亚斯。我住在你们所说的“古希腊”而且在很久之前我常常写以一些关于奥林匹克运动会的事情。我来到你的时代是为了解关于现代奥林匹克运动会因为我知道2004年奥林匹克运动会会在我家乡举办。我可以问你一些关于现代奥林匹克运动会的问题么？

新人教版高中英语课文译文 必修三 第一单元世界各地的节日 Reading 节日和庆典 自古以来，世界各地就有各种各样的节日和庆典。最古老的节日总是庆祝严寒的结束、春季的种植和秋天的收割。有时，在猎人捕获猎物后，也举行庆祝活动。在那个时代，如果食物难以找到，特别是在寒冷的冬月，人们就会挨饿。现在的节日有很多由来，一些是宗教上的，一些是季节性的，一些是纪念特殊的人和事件的。 亡灵节 有些节日，是为了纪念死者，或使祖先得到满足，因为祖先们有可能回到世上（给人们）提供帮助，也有可能带来危害。在日本的盂兰盆节，人们要扫墓、烧香，以缅怀祖先。他们还点起灯笼，奏响乐曲，因为他们认为这样做可以把祖先引回到世上。在墨西哥，亡灵节是在11月初。在这个重要的节庆日子里，人们会吃制成颅骨形状的食物和装点有“骨头”的蛋糕。他们向亡者祭献食物、鲜花和礼品。西方节日万圣节也源自人们古老的信念，认为亡者的灵魂会返回人间。万圣节如今成了孩子们的节日，这天他们可以乔装打扮上邻居家要糖吃。如果邻居什么糖也不给，那么孩子们就可以捉弄他们了。 纪念名人的节日 也有纪念名人的节日。中国的端午节（龙舟节）是纪念古代著名诗人屈

原的。美国的哥伦布日是纪念克里斯托弗.哥伦布发现“新大陆”的日子。印度 在10月2日有个全国性节日，纪念莫汉达斯.甘地，他是帮助印度脱离英国 而独立的领袖。 庆丰收的节日 收获与感恩节是十分喜庆的节日。越冬的粮食收集起来了，农活结束了，人们都心怀感激。在欧洲国家，人们通常用花果来装饰教堂和市政厅，在一 起聚餐。有些人还可能因为他们的农产品（参加各种评选）而获奖，比如最 大的西瓜或最帅的公鸡。中国和日本都有中秋节，这时人们会赏月。在中国，人们还品尝月饼。 春天的节日 最富生气而又最重要的节日，就是告别冬天、迎来春天的日子。中国人 过春节要吃饺子、鱼和肉，还要给孩子们送红纸包着的压岁钱。（他们）舞 龙灯、狂欢，全家人聚在一起欢庆阴历年。在一些西方国家有激动人心的狂 欢节，通常在二月，复活节前的四十天。狂欢节期间，人们穿着各种艳丽的 节日盛装，伴随着鼓噪的音乐，在街头游行，昼夜跳舞。复活节是全世界基 督徒的一个重要的宗教和公众节日。它庆祝耶稣复活，也欢庆春天和新生命 的到来。再晚些时候，日本就迎来了樱花节，（节日里）整个国度到处是盛 开的樱花。看上去就像覆盖了一层粉红色的雪。 人们喜欢聚在一起吃、喝、玩耍。节日让我们享受生活，让我们为自己的习俗而自豪，还可以暂时忘掉工作中的烦恼。 Using Language 一段伤心的爱情故事 李方的心都碎了。这天是情人节，胡瑾说她下班后会在咖啡馆和他见面
