11、 not onl on the quickest routes but also on the quickest routes at different times of the day. People who want to pass the examination spend much of their free time driving or even cycling around London, studying maps and learning the huge street directory by heart.The UndergroundTravelling on Londo
12、n underground (the “tube“) presents few difficulties for visitors because of the clear color-coded maps.

DictationThe Foolish FrogOnce upon a time a big, fat frog live in a tiny shallow pond. He knew every plant a
23、nd stone in it, and he could swim across it easily. He was the biggest creature in the pond, so he was very important. When he croaked, the water-snails listened politely. And the water beetles always swam behind him. He was very happy there.One day, while he was catching flies, a pretty dragon-fly
24、passed by. “Youre a very fine frog,“ sha sang, “but why dont you live in a bigger pond? Come to my pond. Youll find a lot of frogs there. Youll meet some fine fish, and youll see the dangerous ducks. and you must see our lovely water-lilies. Life in a large pond is wonderful!“Perhaps it is rather du
25、ll here,“ thought the foolish frog. So he hopped after the dragon-fly.But he didnt like the big, deep pond. It was full of strange plants. The water-snails were rude to him, and he was afraid of the ducks. The fish didnt like him, and he was the smallest frog there. He was lonely and unhappy.He sat
26、on a water-lily leaf and croaked sadly to himself, “I dont like it here. I think Ill go home tomorrow.“But a hungry heron flew down and swallowed him up for supper.Lesson3Lesson3Task 1: I Dont See It that WayA. 1. (1) b (2) a2.

Most people rarely think about how and why they sleep, however. we know that if we sleep well, we feel rested. If we dont sleep enough, we often feel tired a
33、nd irritable. It seems there are two purposes of sleep: Physical rest and emotional and psychological rest. we need to rest our bodies and our minds. Both are important in order for us to be healthy. Each night we alternate between two kinds of sleep: Active sleep and passive sleep. The passive slee
34、p gives our body the rest thats needed and prepareds us for active sleep, in which dreaming occurs.Throughout the night, people alternate between passive and active sleep. The brain rests, then it becomes active, then dreaming occurs. The cycle is repeated: the brains rests, then it becomes active,
35、then dreaming occurs. This cycle is repeated several times throughout the night. During eight hours of sleep, peole dream for a total of one and half hours on the average.Lesson4Section OneTask1: Weather ForecastA. 1.a 2.cB (略)Task2: The 5Oclock NewsA.Title Name Summary of the ReportNews anchor Char

The pupils were sitting in the same desks and reading the same books. when are schools going to move into the modern world? Books belong to the past. In ou
45、r home radio and television bring us knowledge of the world. We can see and hear the truth for ourselves. If we want entertainment most of us prefer a modern filmto a classical novel. In the business world computers store information, so that we no longer need encyclopaedias and dictionaries. But in
46、 the schools teachers and pupils still use books. There should be a radioand television set in every classrom, and a library of tapes and records in every school.
