徐霞客（1587—1641），名弘祖，字振之，号霞客。明代地理学家、旅行家和文学家，被称为“千古奇人”。他人生的绝大部分时间都在旅行考察，足迹遍及大半个中国，最终留下了地理名著《徐霞客游记》，被誉为“千古奇书”。
Xu Xiake
Now, do you know who the man is
《徐霞客游记》被学术界列为中国最有影响力的20部著作之一，是中国旅游走向全球的重要文化基石之一。其中关于石灰岩地貌的记述，早于欧洲人一个多世纪。《徐霞客游记》开篇之日（5月19日）也被定为“中国旅游日”。

Read the paragraph 1 and answer the question:
The writer starts from Xu Xiake’s last year to attract readers and raise their curiosity.
2 Why does the writer mention Tiandu Peak and Lianhua Peak
Read the paragraph 4 and answer the question:
The writer introduces the peaks as examples of Xu’s important geographical discoveries.
3 Can you think of another title for the passage
The road less travelled/ Exploring the unknown/ The journey of Xu Xiake/ Journey of exploration/...
Read the whole passage and answer the question:
1 In 1640, a man was seriously ill. He had to end the last
trip of his life. Back home, people asked him, “You
spent your whole life on the road. Do you regret it ”
adv. 严重地，非常
Listen, read and imitate
2 “I walked through many fantastic places in China,” he
replied. “People say I’m as great as Zhang Qian and
Xuanzang. So I have no regrets at all.” This man was Xu
Xiake, the greatest traveller in Chinese history.
“I walked through many fantastic places in China,”
he replied. “People say I’m as great as Zhang Qian and Xuanzang. So I have no regrets at all.”
他回道：“我走遍了中国的大好河山。人们说我是一位像张骞和玄奘那样伟大的旅行者。 所以我一点也不后悔。”
张骞，中国西汉外交家。汉能通西域，由张骞创立首功。张骞对开辟从中国通往西域的丝绸之路有卓越贡献，至今举世称道。西域诸国当时无史籍记载，张骞所报道，备载于《史记》《汉书》中，是治中亚史所根据的原始资料，具有重要价值。
玄奘（602—664），通称三藏法师，俗称唐僧，唐佛教学者、旅行家。唐太宗贞观三年西行赴天竺，贞观十九年回到长安。记旅行见闻，撰成《大唐西域记》。元吴昌龄的《唐三藏西天取经》杂剧，明吴承恩的《西游记》小说等，都从他的故事发展而来。
3 From an early age, Xu dreamt of visiting China’s
seas and mountains. But at the time, it was very
difficult to travel far. This didn’t stop him, however. At
22, he set out on his life’s journey. He travelled for
about 30 years, and achieved his dream.
v.实现；（尤指经过努力）取得，达到
set out on sth 意为“开始做某事”。
From an early age, Xu dreamt of visiting China’s seas and mountains.
自年少时起，徐霞客就梦想着访遍中国的山海。
“丈夫当朝碧海而暮苍梧，乃以一隅自限耶？”体现了徐霞客早年立下的远大志向。“朝碧海而暮苍梧”意思是早上还在碧海游玩，晚上就回到了苍梧（现湖南省永州市九嶷山一带）住宿。整句话言外之意是说大丈夫要心怀天下，志在四方。
4 Xu made many geographical discoveries during his
journey. Once, he visited Mount Huangshan. People
then thought Tiandu Peak was higher than Lianhua
Peak. To find out the truth, Xu climbed both peaks. He
discovered that Lianhua Peak gave a wider view, so it
must be higher. He was right!
adj. 地理的；地理学的
n.被发现的事实（事物）
n.山顶，山峰；山，山岳
n.事实，真相，实情
v.爬（山），登（山）
5 Xu recorded his travel experiences in his diary.
This later became Xu Xiake’s Travel Notes.
Thanks to this book, we can learn about China
almost 400 years ago. “Exploring the unexplored”
is the best description of Xu’s life.
Let’s retell
Can you retell the story of Xu Xiake

Xu Xiake was the greatest _______ in Chinese history. He dreamt of visiting China’s ________________, travelled for about ___ years, made many ___________ discoveries (like in ______________ ), and left us _______________

Notes
Think and share
1 What do you think of Xu Xiake
Learning to think for question 1
To make comments on a person, it’s important to be respectful and objective.
Post-reading
Watch a video to know more about Xu Xiake.
I think Xu Xiake was brave, because his journeys were dangerous. I also think he was curious, because most people didn’t travel much in those days.
2 Do you want to be someone like Xu Xiake
Yes, I would like to be like Xu Xiake. I want to travel and discover new places and facts. I want to share my knowledge with the world.
No, I don’t. Traveling like Xu Xiake was really hard in the past. There were no good roads or cars. He had to walk a lot. I’m afraid I can’t stand such hard work. I think I have other things to do in my life, like staying with my family and studying different things at school.
Homework
Tell Xu Xiake’s experiences to your family.
Find some videos about Xu Xiake to watch and write down his things you don’t know. Then share them with your friends.(共36张PPT)

A title often shows the main idea of the passage. Pay attention to the words in a title. Some words may have more than one meaning.

“Hot” means the spicy and hot taste of the Sichuan hot pot. It also means the exciting and passionate experience of trying new and spicy local food.
“Cool” describes the visit to the Sanxingdui Museum. Because the author saw many cool and amazing things in the museum.
1 At last, I arrived in Chengdu. My friend Haoyu
took me to a restaurant right from the airport. I
just couldn’t wait to try Sichuan hot pot!
n. 机场，航空站（港）
Let’s learn
I just couldn’t wait to try Sichuan hot pot!
我迫不及待地想要试一试四川火锅！
can’t wait to do表示“迫不及待地想要做”。
例如：She can’t wait to start her new job.
她迫不及待地想要开始新的工作。
2 But the first taste made my mouth burn! The
food was much hotter than I expected. I took
a deep breath and drank a whole glass of iced
lemon tea.
3 “Do you want something less hot ” Haoyu said.
v. （ 使）（身体部位）灼痛，（使）火辣辣地痛
v. 预料，预期，预计
adj.（ 呼吸或叹息）深深的
n. 柠檬

cooking hot pot was just as fun as eating it!
v. 回答，答复
n.（ 食物或饮料的）一口，一满口
adv. 惊人地，使人吃惊地，出人意料地
“When in China, do as the Chinese do!”
在中国，就入乡随俗吧！
本句改编自谚语When in Rome, do as the Romans do，意为“入乡随俗”。例如：
—Are you sure we should eat this with our hands
你确定我们要用手拿着吃吗？
—Why not When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
当然，入乡随俗嘛。
Surprisingly, I started to enjoy the taste. And
cooking hot pot was just as fun as eating it!
令人意外的是，我开始喜欢这个味道了。而
且，我发现煮火锅和吃火锅一样有趣！
surprisingly 意为“惊人地，使人吃惊地，出人意料地”，常出现在句首，用于表达一种令人意外的感觉。例如：
Surprisingly, he got a very good job.
令人惊讶的是，他找到了一份很好的工作。
5 After lunch, things went from really hot to
totally cool – we went to the new Sanxingdui
Museum! The masks were fantastic. “Why are
their eyes and ears much bigger than normal
ones Were ancient Shu people able to see
and hear further than us ” I wondered. I
wanted to stay in the museum for a week!
n. 假面具，假面
adj. 正常的
adj. 古代的
After lunch, things went from really hot to totally
cool – we went to the new Sanxingdui Museum!
午饭后，我们从热辣的火锅店到了一个完全不同的凉爽且很酷的地方—我们去参观了三星堆博物馆新馆！
这个句子中，hot和cool两个词都使用了双关的修辞手法。hot既体现了火锅店的热闹场景，又体现了火锅的辣。cool既体现了三星堆博物馆新馆的凉爽，也体现了展览内容令人印象深刻。
6 My first day in China was full of fun: I
tried new food and went to an exciting
place. I’m really looking forward to the
rest of my trip around China!
（兴奋地）期待，盼望
I’m really looking forward to the rest of my trip
around China!
look forward to意为“（兴奋地）期待，盼望”，后面常跟名词或动词的-ing形式。例如：
I look forward to meeting you. 我期待着与你见面。
我真的很期待接下来的中国之旅！
I would like to travel in Sichuan because there is a lot of delicious food and interesting places.

expresses surprise.
Hello, everyone. I'm in Bern, Switzerland. It's a beautiful place with a long history. Behind me, you can see the famous Clock Tower. Oh! What's going on I see someone jump in the river! Wow, there are lots of people in the water! Let me go and ask that lady. Excuse me, what are you doing
Jack:
I'm going to work.
I'm sorry You swim to work
That's right. There are no traffic jams or noise. And people often chat on their way to work.
Is this a popular way to get around Bern

Listen, read and imitate
In summer, yes. It's very “cool”.
But what do you do with your clothes and your things
Oh, I put them in a waterproof bag. They won't get wet.
That sounds great.
Why don't you jump in the river, too Get a waterproof bag there and you can have a look at the city down the river.
Amazing! I'll try that later. Enjoy your swim!
Bye!

Hi, everybody. Im Jack. Many thanks for giving me the Best Travel Vlogger award. At this moment, I'd like to share with you some of my thoughts on travel.
During my travels, I don't just go to famous places. I enjoy talking to local people. That's more interesting to me. It helps me learn about their lives and understand their culture. For example, I recently visited a city and noticed something very surprising. Many people there swim to work! Where is this place Watch my latest vlog to find out!
