111 Unit 2 Wish you were here Welcome to the unit 一、閱讀下面的詩歌. Saying Good-bye to Cambridge Again 再別康橋 Very quietly I take my leave 輕輕的我走了， As quietly as I came here; 正如我輕輕的來； Quietly I wave good-bye 我輕輕的招手， To the rosy clouds in the western sky. 作別西天的云彩。 The golden willows by the riverside 那河畔的金柳, Are young brides in the setting sun; 是夕陽中的新娘; Their reflections on the shimmering waves 波光里的艷影， Always linger in the depth of my heart. 在我的心頭蕩漾。 The floating heart growing in the sludge 軟泥上的青荇， Sways leisurely under the water; 油油的在水底招搖； In the gentle waves of Cambridge 在康河的柔波里， I would be a water plant! 我甘心做一條水草 That pool under the shade of elm trees 那榆蔭下的一潭， Holds not water but the rainbow from the sky; 不是清泉，是天上虹; Shattered to pieces among the duckweeds 揉碎在浮藻間， Is the sediment of a rainbow-like dream? 沉淀著彩虹似的夢(mèng)。 To seek a dream? Just to pole a boat upstream 尋夢(mèng)？撐一支長(zhǎng)篙， To where the green grass is more verdant; 向青草更青處漫溯， Or to have the boat fully loaded with starlight 滿載一船星輝， And sing aloud in the splendor of starlight. 在星輝斑斕里放歌 But I cannot sing aloud 但我不能放歌， Quietness is my farewell music; 悄悄是別離的笙簫； Even summer insects keep silence for me 夏蟲也為我沉默， Silent is Cambridge tonight! 沉默是今晚的康橋！ Very quietly I take my leave 悄悄的我走了， As quietly as I came here; 正如我悄悄的來； Gently I flick my sleeves 我揮一揮衣袖， Not even a wisp of cloud will I bring away 不帶走一片云彩。 二、背景材料導(dǎo)讀 A Baobab tree grows in West Africa and Australia. It is a very strange-looking tree. Its enormous trunk（樹干）sometimes measures as much as ten meters in diameter（直徑）. It is thicker at the bottom than at the top. The branches near the ground are very long, but those near the top are very short. It may be a strange-looking tree, but it is very useful. Its leaves are good to eat. Its white flowers turn into cool, juicy which tastes rather like cucumber. There are such strong fibres in the bark（樹皮）that people can get rope and clothes from them. When a baobab tree gets old, its trunk becomes hollow. An old tree has such a huge, hollow trunk that it can hold many people. The local people often build their houses inside these trunks. When it rains, water collects in the hollow. The tree has such a lot of leaves and branches that the water remains cool and fresh. It is a useful tree that some people could hardly live without it. 1. Baobab tree grows in ________. A. Asia B. Europe C. Africa D. Australia and Africa 2. Which of the following is true? A.

It is a colorful, modern city but it is also a natural beauty with green park land and perhaps the world’s most beautiful deep water harbor. Besides modern buildings and roads, the city has many places of historical interest. For example, Mr. Macquarie’s Chair. The area called the Rocks dating back to the early nineteenth century, and attractive rows of houses of Paddington, are all close to the harbor and the city center. Sydney has many other attractions of tourist importance-a zoo. Koala Bear Park and Sydney Opera House which lies at the water’s edge. Some say that the Opera House which lies at the water’s edge is one of the most outstanding examples of beautifully designed modern buildings in the world. There are all kinds of restaurants, theatres, nightclubs and sports facilities. There is also a network of communications within the city, including an underground railway, buses and taxis; Sydney has a very pleasant climate. Usually the average temperature in summer is just a little above 20centigrade, and in winter not below 12 centigrade. Sydney plays an irreplaceable role in all works of life in Australia.

The worker’s idea of a lunch-time break is to organize a “pelada” (a scratch game, with coats as goalposts and rolled-up socks as a ball.) In the interior of Brazil, where there is a small settlement, you will find a clearing surrounded by tall trees and dense(稠密的)undergrowth, hundreds of miles from the nearest electric installation(裝置), and two teams hotly engaged in a soccer match watched by a group of Indians as crazy as any supporters in the world. On Copacabana beach several championships are played. Every Saturday afternoon goalposts and nets are put up and league games are played. The teams play 30 minutes each way barefoot. The sides of the “field” are limited by the sea on one side and the roadway wall on the other. The championships are organized by C.B.F. and some 10,000 clubs register(登記) for the competition. The teams play in their own strip. As can be imagined, considerable skill is required to control the ball on the soft sand, and from this ready made “nursery” several players have graduated to professional teams. These games attract large crowds and support for the teams is considerable, especially when local districts are opposing(對(duì)抗) each other. 11. How do Brazilians show their love for soccer? A.

D The Gobi Desert, in the north of China, is now seven times bigger than Britain. China has large desert areas and much of its agricultural land is being threatened by desertification(沙漠化), which is getting worse. In addition, soil erosion has led to a huge loss of farmland and the drying up of rivers. Consequently, the livelihoods of 35 million people are being threatened. Furthermore it is even affecting cities. The nearest sand dune is less than 100 miles from Beijing, Where unpleasant sandstorms are becoming more frequent. The worse the situation, the more pressure there is on the government to take action. The reasons for the changes are complex(復(fù)雜的). It is clear that pollution of air and water by factories is affecting the environment. Trees and other vegetation die, and so soil is eroded. The more trees die, the less water is held in the earth. The need for wood, fuel and buildings leads to further deforestation(采伐森林). Which cause further soil erosion? Local farmers find it more and more difficult to make a living. They end up using inefficient farming methods, which again leads to soil erosion. The government is carrying out anti-desertification project, including the creation of a forest belt around deserts. The tree-planting campaign, known as the Great Wall, is meant to protect Beijing from sandstorms. China hopes to control the expansion of desert land by the year 2010 and plans to establish a protected eco-system in desert areas by 2050. 16. Britain is _______. A. one eight of the size of the Gobi Desert B. 20 % of the size of China C. as big as the Gobi desert D. bigger than Gobi desert 17. The total desert areas of China is _______. A. decreasing B. remaining constant(不變的) C. not mentioned in the text D. increasing 18. The trees die because _______. A. the soil is poor B. the air and the water is polluted C. they get diseases D. they are not well planted by people 19. The Chinese government is planting trees around _______. A. the deserts B. China C. Beijing D. the north of China. 20. The expansion of desert land _______. A. will definitely be controlled by 2010 B. won’t be controlled by 2010 C. should be controlled by 2010 D. must be controlled by 2010 111
