1.必修五Unit 3 FIRST IMPRESSIONS第一印象Spacemail:

太空邮件:

15/11/3008 (Earthtime)(地球时间) Dear Mum and Dad,

I still cannot believe that I am taking up this prize that I won last year.

亲爱的爸爸妈妈:我现在仍然无法相信我是在接受去年获得的这个奖励。I have to remind myself constantly that I am really in AD 3008.我得不断提醒自己,我真的已经进入到公元3008年了。Worried about the journey, I was

unsettled for the first few days. As a result, I suffered from “Time lag”.因为担心这次旅行,头几天我心里总是不踏实,结果我得了时间滞后症。This is similar to the “jet lag” you get from flying, but it seems you keep getting flashbacks from

your previous time period.这就与你乘坐飞机会产生时差反应相似,所不同的是,在你的脑子里似乎会不断闪现以前的时光。So I was very nervous and uncertain at first.因此,我一开始就感到神经过敏和心神不定。However, my friend and

guide, Wang Ping, was very understanding and gave me some green tablets which helped a lot.但是我的朋友兼导游王平很细心体贴,给了我几粒绿色药片,倒是挺起作用的。Well-known for their expertise, his parents' company, called "Future

Tours", transported me safely into the future in a time capsule.他父母的公司叫做“未来之旅”,以其技术高超而闻名。他们把我装在一个时间舱里,平安地把我送入了未来。

I can still remember the moment when the space stewardess called

us all to the capsule and we climbed in through a small opening.我仍旧记得我们被太空服务员一起叫到时间舱,爬上去进入一个小门。The seats were comfortable and after a calming drink, we felt sleepy and closed our eyes.座位是很舒适的,

喝了点镇静剂后,我们的眼睛就闭上了,感到昏昏欲睡似的。The capsule began swinging gently sideways as we lay relaxed and dreaming.时间舱在轻轻左右摇晃,我们放松地躺在那里做梦。A few minutes later, the journey was completed

and we had arrived.几分钟以后,旅程结束,我们就到了。I was still on the earth but one thousand years in the future. What would I find?我仍然在地球上,但是进入到了未来的一千年。我们会看到什么呢?

At first my new

surroundings were difficult to tolerate.一开始新的环境让我很难忍受。The air seemed thin, as though its combination of gases had little oxygen left.空气似乎很稀薄,好像在混合的气体中剩下的氧气很少。Hit by a lack of fresh air, my head

ached.由于缺乏新鲜空气,我感到头痛。Just as I tried to make the necessary adjustment to this new situation, Wang Ping appeared.正当我想努力调整适应新环境时,王平出现了。"Put on this mask," he advised. "It'll make you feel much better."

他告诉我,“把这个面罩戴上。它会使你感觉好得多。” He handed it to me and immediately hurried me through to a small room nearby for a rest.他把面罩递给我,敦促我马上走进附近的一个小房间,叫我休息。I felt better in no time.我立刻就感到舒

服些了。Soon I was back on my feet again and following him to collect a hovering carriage driven by computer.很快,我就又一次恢复过来了,跟着他去领取了一台由电脑驱动的气垫车。These carriages float above the ground and by

bending or pressing down in your seat, you can move swiftly.这些气垫车是在地面上方漂浮着的,只要在座位上把操纵杆打弯或压下,你就可以迅速地移动。Wang Ping fastened my safety belt and showed me how to use it.王平系紧了我的安全

带,教我怎样使用它。Soon I could fly as fast as him.不久,我就可以飞得跟王平一样快了。However, I lost sight of Wang Ping when we reached what looked like a large market because of too many carriages flying by in all directions.可是,当我们

到达一个看上去像大市场的地方时,由于太多车子朝四面八方飞奔,我看不见王平了。He was swept up into the centre of them.他被卷入到这群车队里去了。Just at that moment I had a "time lag" flashback and saw the area again as it had

been in the year AD 2008.就在这个时候我得到一次“时间滞后”的闪回,这样我就再次看到了似乎是公元2008年的那个地区。I realized that I had been transported into the future of what was still my hometown!我这才懂得我被送到了未来,

但却仍然在自己的家乡。Then I caught sight of Wang Ping again and flew after him.就在这个时候,我又见到了王平,于是又跟在他后面飞去。

Arriving at a strange-looking house, he showed me into a large, bright clean room.

到了一幢看上去很奇怪的房子里,他把我带到一个明亮而洁净的大房间。It had a green wall, a brown floor and soft lighting.墙是绿色的,地板是棕色的,灯光很柔和。Suddenly the wall moved - it was made of trees!突然墙壁移动了——原来是树

形成的!I found later that their leaves provided the room with much-needed oxygen.后来我才发现,就是这些树的叶子为这栋房屋提供了最急需的氧气。Then Wang Ping flashed a switch on a computer screen, and a table and some chairs rose from

必修五 1.MODULE 1 Words, words, words词,词,词 British and American English are different in many ways. 英式英语和美式英语在 很多方面都有所不同。The first and most obvious way is in the vocabulary. 首先最明显的是在词汇方面。There are hundreds of different words which are not used on the other side of the Atlantic, or which are used with a different meaning. 有数以百计个不同的词在大西洋彼岸的另一个英语国家不被使用,或者以一种不同的意思被使用着。Some of these words are well known---Americans drive automobiles down freeways and fill up with gas;其中有些词就很广泛地为人所知--- 美国人在freeways上驾驶的是automobiles,给车加gas;the British drive cars along motorways and fill up with petrol.英国人在motorways上驾驶的是cars,给车加petrol。As a tourist, you will need to use the underground in London or the subway in New York, or maybe you will prefer to get around the town by taxi(British) or cab (American).作为游人,在伦敦你要乘underground,而在纽约则是subway,或者你愿意乘坐taxi(英式)或者cab (美式)游览城市。 Chips or French files Chips 还是French fries? But other words and expressions are not so well known.但是其他词语和表达方式却没有这么广泛地为人所知。Americans use a flashlight, while for the British, it's a torch.美国人把手电筒称为flashlight,而英国人却叫它torch。The British queue up; Americans stand in line.英国人排队用queue up,而美国人说stand in line。有时候,Sometimes the same word has a slightly different meaning, which can be confusing. 同一个单词在意义上一点细微的差别就让人很困惑。Chips, for example, are pieces of hot fried potato in Britain; in the States chips are very thin and are sold in packets.比如chips这个词在英国是热炸的薯条,在美国chips却指非常薄而且装在纸袋里出售的薯片。The British call these crisps.英国人把这种东西称为crips。The chips the British know and love are French fries on the other side of the Atlantic. 英国人知道而且喜欢的薯条在大西洋对岸被称为French fries 。Have or have got? Have 还是have got?

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.

-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

必修五课文原文翻译 unit 1约翰·斯诺战胜“霍乱王” 约翰·斯诺是伦敦一位著名的医生——他的确医术精湛,以至于成了照料维多利亚女王的私人医生。但当他一想到要帮助(那些)得了霍乱的普通百姓时,就感到很受鼓舞。霍乱在当时是最致命的疾病。人们既不知道它的病因,也不懂如何治疗。每次爆发霍乱时就有成千上万惊恐的人病死。约翰·斯诺想面对这一挑战,解决这一问题。他知道在找到病源之前,霍乱疫情是无法控制的。 他对霍乱致人死地的两种推测产生了兴趣。第一种看法是霍乱病毒在空气中繁殖,像一股危险气体在空中到处漂浮,直到找到病毒的受害人。第二种看法是人们是在吃饭时把这种病毒引入体内的。病毒从胃部开始迅速殃及全身,患者就会很快地死去。 约翰·斯诺推测第二种说法是正确的,但需要有证据。因此在1854年伦敦再次爆发霍乱时,他就着手准备对此调研。当霍乱在贫民区迅速蔓延时,约翰·斯诺开始搜集信息。他发现特别在两条街上霍乱流行得很严重,以至于10天内就有500多人死亡。他决心查清原因。 他首先在地图上标注出所有死者曾住过的确切地点。该图提供了一条说明霍乱起因的很有价值的线索。许多死者都住在布洛德街上的水泵附近(尤其是这条街上的16、37、38和40号)。他还发现有些住户(如布洛德街20号和21号及剑桥街8号和9号)却无人死亡。他未预料到这种情况,于是他做了进一步调查。他发现这些人是在剑桥街7号的酒馆里打工。酒馆为他们供应免费啤酒,因此他们没喝布洛德街水泵里的水。看来水是罪魁祸首。 接下来,约翰·斯诺调查了这两条街上的水源。他发现水来自于河里,这条河被伦敦排出的脏水污染了。约翰·斯诺立即告诉布洛德街上惊慌失措的人们拆掉水泵的把手,这样水泵就用不成了。不久,疫情就开始得到缓解。他证明了霍乱是通过细菌传播而非气团传播。 在伦敦的另一地区,他从另外两例与布洛德街疾病爆发有关的死亡病例中得到了有力的证据。一个妇女,从布洛德街搬走了,但她非常喜欢水泵的水,她让人每天从水泵给她家送水。她和她的女儿在喝了这些水后,都死于霍乱。利用这个额外证据,约翰·斯诺就可以很有把握地宣布污染水携带病菌。 为防止这种情况再度发生,约翰·斯诺建议,所有水源都要经过检测。供水公司也得到指示再也不能让人们接触污染水了。“霍乱王”终于被击败了。

Smoking will be possible only outside cities, and outdoors.戒烟:在未来城市范围内将禁止吸烟。只有在郊区和户外才允许吸烟。 Forget the malls:In the future all shopping will be done online, and catalogues will
