    拓展阅读,开阔视野
Zhang Shuzhen was born in 1937 in Taikang County, Henan Province. She is known as the “tea grandma”. She got such a name because she had used her whole life to realise the great project of “moving tea from the south to the north”, which benefited several generations.
语篇类型:记叙文 主题:南茶北移 词数:260 建议用时:7分钟
In the autumn of 1961, Zhang graduated from university and went to work in the mountains in Shangnan County, Shaanxi Province. She worked hard in the mountains for more than 70 days, which made her wear out more than 20 pairs of straw shoes(草鞋).
Most tea trees are suitable for growing in areas south of 30 degrees north latitude(北纬). However, Shangnan County lies at 33 degrees north latitude. There was no tea planted by hand in Shangnan before that, but Zhang once met old wild tea trees in the county. This encouraged her to
try tea planting. In 1962, she began to plant tea, but ended in failure for four years. However, she didn't give up, and it was not until 1970 that she was able to harvest 1.9 kg tea leaves. This showed that it would be possible to grow tea in Shangnan. Under Zhang's efforts, the villagers began to follow her to grow tea. By 1975, 36 tea farms had been built in Shangnan, reaching more than 20,000 mu of tea gardens. This completely ended the history of no tea there.
After more than half a century of development, the green mountains she created became the gold and silver mountains that made the people rich.
(  )1. Why is Zhang Shuzhen called the “tea grandma”?
A. Because she liked to drink tea very much.
B. Because she spent her whole life moving tea to the north.
C. Because she was the oldest person in her village.
D. Because she owned a very large tea garden.
B
(  )2. How did Zhang Shuzhen wear out more than 20 pairs of shoes made of grass
A. She used them to water the tea trees every day.
B. She sold them to buy tea seeds.
C. She worked very hard walking in the mountains.
D. She ran every day in the mountains.
C
(  )3.What was the biggest challenge in growing tea in Shangnan County
A. The farmers there didn't like tea.
B. The weather there was too hot.
C. It was north of the usual tea-growing area.
D. There was not enough water.
C
(  )4. What does the underlined word “harvest” in Paragraph 3 mean
A. Sell. B. Collect.   C. Wash.   D. Plant.
【解析】词义猜测题。根据语境可知,张淑珍经过多年尝试,最终成功获得了1.9公斤茶叶,由此可推知,“harvest”在这里指收获,与collect意思相近。故选B。
B
(  )5. What is the best title for the passage
A. A Lifelong Dream of Planting Trees
B. How to Grow Tea in Cold Places
C. “Tea Grandma” and Her Green Dream
D. The Difficult Life in the Mountains
【解析】标题归纳题。全文围绕张淑珍如何克服地理困难,用一生时间在北方成功种植茶叶,并最终将青山变成造福人民的“金山银山”这一绿色梦想展开。C选项“‘茶奶奶’和她的绿色梦想”最适合做文章标题。故选C。
C
【词汇积累】
1. be known as 被称为
2. wear out 穿破,磨损
3. be suitable for 适合……
4. end in failure 以失败告终
5. under one's efforts 在某人的努力下
【难句解析及仿写】
By 1975, 36 tea farms had been built in Shangnan, reaching more than 20,000 mu of tea gardens. 到1975年,商南县已建成了36座茶场,茶园面积超过20 000亩。
解析:reaching more than 20,000 mu of tea是现在分词短语作结果状语,修饰整个主句“36 tea farms had been built in Shangnan”。这种结构通常放在句尾,用逗号隔开。
仿写:他努力工作多年,最终实现了目标。
He worked hard for years, finally __________ his goal.

三、读写综合
A. 回答问题
请阅读下面短文,根据所提供的信息,回答五个问题。要求所写答案语法正确、信息完整切题。
Charles Darwin (1809—1882), known as the Father of Modern Biology. He was born in England. When Darwin was young, he didn't do well at school though he was smart. But he was a good sports player, enjoyed walking and loved learning about nature and collecting sea shells. His father was a doctor and expected Charles to be one, too. So Charles started studying medicine at Edinburgh University in 1825 but gave it up in 1827.
In 1831, at the age of 22, Darwin went on a journey from England to South America, Australia, South Africa and other countries by ship. He didn't feel well on the ship but this journey changed his life as he collected many fossils, animals, and plants along the way. The ship finally went back to England safely in 1836. Then he spent the rest of his life studying what he had seen and collected and wrote many books.
His most famous book, On the Origin of Species, came out in 1859 and sold out in one day. He said that species evolve(进化) and change over time. At that time, people's understanding of the natural world was not good enough. After reading the book, people got to know that some living things can get used to the environment better and this makes it possible for them to better live on. It's called natural selection(选择). Today, Charles Darwin still encourages new scientists. His spirit goes on, and he'll always be seen as a great scientist in history.

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
A guide and some tourists are talking about a boiling river in the Amazon Rainforest. (Ancient people thought that the sun makes the river hot.) The guide thinks it's unlikely for the sun to heat the river that much (although there's a lot sunshine here). One of the tourists thinks perhaps the river passes a volcano and becomes hot. (However, the nearest volcano is about 700 kilometres away, so that's not the reason.) Another tourist thinks maybe there're some chemicals in the water that can produce heat. (That's possible, but scientists haven't found such chemicals in the river yet. They need to do more research.)
第二节 询问信息
你希望了解更多关于沸腾之河的信息,请根据以下提示向他们提两个问题。
1. 这条沸腾之河有多长?

Lesson 2 Grammar rules
宾语从句(1)
宾语从句是用一个完整的句子充当宾语的复合句,其基本结构是:主句+引导词+从句。
1. that和whether/if引导的宾语从句的用法
引导词 用法 例句
that 没有实际意义,that引导的宾语从句是由陈述句转化而来的,主句的谓语动词多是think、believe、guess、know、say、hope等。在口语或非正式文体中that常省略 We believe (that) it is a good way to relax.
我们相信这是一种很好的放松方式。
引导词 用法 例句
whether/if 意为“是否”,whether/if引导的宾语从句多是由一般疑问句或选择疑问句转化而来的。一般情况下两者可互换,在从句中不可省略 I don't know whether/if he will arrive on time.
我不知道他是否会准时到达。
2. 只用whether不用if的三种情况:
(1)与or not直接连用时,如:
I don't know whether or not the star will come. 我不知道那位明星是否会来。
(2)与动词不定式连用时,如:
Mr Li will tell us whether to have a test. 李老师将告诉我们是否进行测试。
(3)作介词的宾语时,如:
Everything depends on whether we have enough time. 一切取决于我们是否有足够的时间。
