29、urn to page 41 to see these amazing people. Lets discuss their achievements and answer the questions below.Sample dialogue 1: S1: Look at this old lady.

30、er Teresa joined a religious order and took the name Teresa. The order immediately sent her to India. She became an Indian citizen. For her work with the poor around the world she received the 1979 Nobel Peace Prize. S3: In addition to the 1979 Nobel Peace Prize, Mother Teresa has received other awa
31、rds for her work with the needy. These awards include the 1971 Pope John XXIII Peace Prize and Indias Jawaharlal Nehru Award for International Understanding in 1972.

S2: Yes. Thanks to his contribution, we can
36、 experience such a wonderful and amazing world we have never seen before. S3: I heard Bill Gates and his wife set up a foundation focusing on improving global health. He is really great. I admire him for his selfless devotion to the world progress. Sample dialogue 3: S1: Ludwig van Beethoven was a G
37、erman composer of classical music, who mainly lived in Vienna, Austria. He was a major musical figure in the period between the Classical and Romantic eras. S2: Beethoven is widely regarded as one of the greatest of composers. His reputation has inspired other composers, musicians and audiences who
38、were to come after him. S3: Among his most widely-recognized works are his Fifth Symphony, Ninth Symphony, Sixth Symphony, the piano piece Fr Elise, the Pathtique Sonata and the Moonlight Sonata.S4: Unfortunately, Beethoven became totally deaf during his late life time.

40、 who started Microsoft, made it possible to put a computer on every office desk and in every home. S1: Which of these peoples achievements have the largest effect on our lives today?

43、ry expensive, while now products made by machine are fine and cheap.S4: I think Bill Gates contribution has the largest effect on our lives today.

44、d. These might seem strange ten years ago, but now computers have turned them into reality. And computers bring a lot of convenience to our daily life. With computers, we can find information wed like to know. Because of computers, a lot of time and effort have been saved. Work is done more efficien
45、tly and communication has become much easier.T: What are the common characteristics these four people share?S: I think they are all greatest talents, they are amazing, and their contributions are amazing.

47、explorer. First, look at the title “The curse of the mummy”. Why does the writer choose “The curse of the mummy” as title here? Can you guess what we will learn in the text? S1: Let me try.

59、und the tomb of King TutankhamunRichard BethellCarters secretaryHeart troubleAfter a few minutes, ask some students to retell the text.A sample retelling version: Howard Carter is one of he most famous explorers the world has ever known. In 1891, he set sail for Egypt. By the 1920s, he had become an
60、 explorer, searching for the tombs of the Egyptian kings. In 1922, he made his most amazing discovery of all. A British man, Lord Carnarvon, was very interested in Egypt. Howard Carter received his money to look for the tombs. In Luxor, Carters team found the tomb of King Tutankhamun, the most impor
61、tant tomb that had ever been found. They took all the riches, gold and jewels as well as the mummy of the king. However, not long after the tomb had been open, people who had something to do with the opening of the tombs began to fall ill and die strangely. Lord Carnarvon was present when the tomb w
62、as opened, fell ill with a fever and died in Egypt. George Gould, his friend, who went to Egypt after hearing of his death, visited the tomb, and had a high fever the following day and died.

Upon entering the tomb, Carters lucky pet bird, which had led him to the place, was eaten by a snake.“Upon entering the tomb” means “As soon as the bird entered the tomb”. “which had led them to the place” is a attributive clause. It modifi
66、es “Carters lucky bird”. 2. Others believe that they were the result of the mummys curse, which punish those who enter the resting place of the dead.There are two attributive clauses: “Which punish .” is used to modify “curse”, while “who enter .”modifies “those”.Step IV Post-readingIn this step, st
67、udents will do some discussion about Howard Carter.T: Now weve known more about Howard Carter, the famous explorer. His work started in 1891 when he was only 17.

69、 very dangerous and hard to open tombs. But he kept on working on it and found the most important tomb, the tomb of the King Tutankhamun.S2: I dont think so. Howard Carter is a famous explorer. But I dont think he is an amazing explorer. Exploration is a great job. But different countries have diffe
70、rent cultures.

As I know there are still
73、many mysteries in the world that people cant explain. For example, in Loch Ness, a long, deep lake near Inverness, Scotland, there is an alleged creature named Nessie. People have reported seeing it for over 30 years. I hope you can be the explorer who discover the mystery.S1: Its hard for people to
74、 know all the secrets of the nature. But I believe we can conquer all difficulties to have a good knowledge of the nature and history.Sample dialogue 2: S1: I think Mr. and Mrs. Curie are the most amazing people in history.

104、 they ask. Then show some sentences and lead the students to recognize situations where the past perfect tense is used as well as what time expressions can be used together with the tense. Also, they will see how the tense is formed and know the difference between the past perfect tense and the simp
105、le past tense.T: Look at the sentences on the Bb. What can you find the common points of these sentences are?Show the following. Upon entering the tomb, Carters lucky pet bird, which had led him to the place, was eaten by a snake. “We emptied the tomb of everything it contained,” said Carter.Carter
106、said that they had emptied the tomb of everything it contained.S: They all include the past perfect tense.T: Good! We form the past perfect tense by using “had” and the “verb-ed” form. I will show you why and when we use the past perfect tense. Please look at the sentences on the Bb. We can see from
107、 the first sentence: Carters lucky pet bird led Carter to the site, and then it was eaten by a snake. We use the simple past tense to talk about a past action. When we want to talk about something that happened at an earlier time in the past, we use the past perfect tense. We can find more examples.
108、 Such as, The tickets had been sold out when we arrived at the theatre. It means the tickets were sold out before we arrived at the theatre. Do you know why we use the past perfect tense in the second example?S: I think its because weve change the sentence from the direct speech into the reported sp
109、eech. And “said” is used in the main clause, so we must change the simple past tense to the past perfect tense.T: Quite right! We can use the past perfect tense in reported speech to refer to an action that had already happened at the time of speaking. We can change the simple past tense and present
110、 perfect tense in the direct speech to the past perfect tense in the reported speech. Now read the following two examples. 1. I had done my homework this morning before I went to the museum.2. Then a few months after Carter had opened the tomb, Lord Carnarvon fell ill with a fever and died.T: As we
111、can see in the first example, the use of the past perfect tense simply indicates that an action comes before another past action. It does not mean that the past action happened a long time ago. And we often use the past perfect tense with time expressions such as when, after, before, as soon as, unt
112、il, since, by, for and already. Show more sentences and ask them to join the pairs of sentences using the past perfect tense so that students can understand the past perfect tense better.T: Look at these sentences. Join these pairs of sentences using the past perfect tense. You can add words if need

119、T: Any volunteer to answer my question? S1: Let me have a try. I think the present perfect tense is used when we are talking about a past event which relates to the present time.T: Well done! Who can explain the sentence below by drawing a diagram?We had received five letters from him by the end of
120、last year.S2: I will draw it on the Bb.We received his letter the end of last year.Past Present T: Can you tell us when we use the past perfect tense?S: The past perfect tense is used when we are discussing the past event and want to talk about an even earlier event.T: Besides, when we change a sent

205、s,MikeStep II Lead-inTalk about J K Rowling and her books. T: Harry Potters magic has touched a huge audience of all ages all over the world. In America, there are over 103 million books in print. Do you know who the author is?S1: J K Rowling.T: What do you know about her?S2: She has written six boo
206、ks, all of which is interesting and fantastic. Step III ListeningThe students will listen to a radio program about J K Rowling, the author of Harry Potter books and a conversation between Michele and her friend Peter. First get the students to read the note sheet to see what information they need to
207、 get. And then listen to the program. Its difficult for the students to fill in all the blanks at once. So play the tape again to help the students to complete as much of the note sheet as possible.T: I know you all like to read the Harry Potter books, so you must like the writer J K Rowling. Today
208、a radio program will tell us about her. We will listen to the tape and take notes. Before listening, please read the note first to see what information we need to take. Listen carefully and complete the note sheet as much as possible.The students listen to the tape twice and make notes.Play the conv
209、ersation in B. This time, ask the students to complete all the blanks.T: If you cant fill in all the blanks at a time, it doesnt matter. We will get more information from the conversation between Michele and her friend Peter. Listen carefully and complete the note sheet.Play A and B again to help th
210、e students check their answers.Step IV Speaking As the students have known of J K Rowling after they listen to the program and the conversation. Show the students the task to make an interview conversation of J K Rowling. T: We have learnt much about J K Rowling by listening and collecting materials
211、. Now you can choose one task to finish in groups of four or in pairs. InterviewT: Suppose you are a journalist of a newspaper office. Now you are interviewing J K Rowling. Write a conversation and then act it out in class. You can work in groups of four. One of you is J K Rowling, and the others ar
212、e journalists from different newspaper offices. You are interviewing J K Rowling. Lets begin now. Ten minutes later, you are expected to act out your interview in class. Sample interview dialogue 1: J = Journalist; R = Rowling J1: How did you get the idea for Harry Potter? R: I was taking a long tra
213、in journey from Manchester to London in England and the idea for Harry just fell into my head. At that point it was essentially the idea for a boy who didnt know he was a wizard, and the wizard school he ended up going to. J2: How long did it take to write the first book? R: 5 years, although during
214、 that time I was also planning & writing parts of the six sequels. J3: What did you have to do to make sure readers could start with Harry Porter and the Chamber of Secrets and not be confused? R: Its becoming more of a challenge to keep new readers up to speed with every new Harry book. In the case
215、 of Chamber of Secrets matters were relatively straightforward; I tried to introduce information about Harry and his first year at Hogwarts in as natural a way as possible. However, by the time I reach books five and six, this is going to be much harder.J4: What kind of manuscript changes had to be
216、made to make the U.S. version more understandable to American readers? Specific things, like the title change of the first Harry Potter book? R: Very few changes have been made in the manuscript. Arthur Levine, my American editor, and I decided that words should be changed only where we felt they wo
217、uld be incomprehensible, even in context, to an American reader. I have had some criticism from other British writers about allowing any changes at all, but I feel the natural extension of that argument is to go and tell French and Danish children that we will not be translating Harry Potter, so the
218、yd better go and learn English. J1: Did you always plan to write Harrys story in more than one book? If so, how many? R: I always conceived it as a seven-book series because I decided that it would take seven years from the ages of 11-17, inclusive, to train as a wizard, and each of the books would
219、deal with a year of Harrys life at Hogwarts. J2: Any hints you could share about what to expect in future Harry Potter books? R: The theme running through all seven books is the fight between good and evil, and Im afraid there will be casualties! Children usually beg me not to kill Ron whenever I te
220、ll them this; they seem to think he is most vulnerable, probably because he is the heros best friend! Sample interview dialogue 2: J1: What do you think it is about Harry Potter that connects with so many people? R: Its very hard to think about my work in those terms, because I really wrote it entir
221、ely for myself; it is my sense of humour in the books, not what I think children will find funny, and I suppose that would explain some of the appeal to adults. On the other hand, I think that I have very vivid memories of how it felt to be Harrys age, and children seem to identify strongly with Har
222、ry and his friends. J2:Did you ever expect Harry Potter to be so successful? R: I would have been crazy to have expected what has happened to Harry. The most exciting moment for me, against very stiff competition, was when I found out Harry was going to be published. It was my lifes ambition to see
223、a book I had written on a shelf in a bookshop. Everything that has happened since has been extraordinary and wonderful, but the mere fact of being able to say I was a published author was the fulfillment of a dream I had had since I was a very small child. J3: Are you surprised to see Harry Potter c
224、onnecting with so many adults, as well as kids? R: I didnt write with a target audience in mind. What excited me was how much I would enjoy writing about Harry. I never thought about writing for children childrens books chose me. I think if it is a good book anyone will read it. J4: Of the many thin
225、gs you must have heard people say about Harry Potter, what are some of your favorites? R: My very favourite was from a twelve-year-old Scottish girl who came to hear me read at the Edinburgh book festival. The event was sold out and the queue for signing at the end was very long. When the girl in qu
226、estion finally reached me she said, “I didnt want there to be so many people here, because this is MY book!” That is exactly how I feel about my favourite books . nobody else has a right to know them, let alone like them! Sample interview dialogue 3: J1: Are you excited about the movie deal for Harr
227、y Potter? Where else might we see Harry Potter in the future (toys, video games, etc.)? R: I am very excited (and a little bit nervous) about Harry Potter the Movie. Warner Brothers have bought merchandising rights, so it is possible that we will be seeing Harry Potter toys. J2: Is this the first bo
228、ok / story you ever wrote? If not, is it the first one ever published? R: It is the first book I have ever published. At the time I got the idea for Harry I had written and put aside two adult novels. J3: Did you always want to be a writer? R: Yes, ever since the age of five or six, when I wrote my
229、first “book” a story about a rabbit called “Rabbit”. J4: Where, when, and how do you write? R: Any time, any place, and longhand! J1: Do you have any plans, as a writer, beyond Harry Potter? R: I have always written and I know that I always will; I would be writing even if I hadnt been published. Ho
230、wever, Harry is a large and all-consuming project, and I really havent got time, at the moment, to decide what will come next. J2: What are you reading now? R: The last novel I read was Captain Corellis Mandolin by Louis de Bernieres, which I loved. J3: What advice would you give to young writers to
231、day? R: I doubt a writer who has got what it takes will need me to tell them this, but persevere! Sample interview dialogue 4: J1: What do you like best about your life as a childrens book writer? R: The writing! J2: If you were not writing, what might you be doing, instead? R: Well as you can see b
232、y the answer above, I would be at a dead loss. Profession-wise, I would still be teaching, which I enjoyed. J3: What are your hobbies? Favorite holidays (and how do you celebrate them)? R: I was embarrassed the other day to discover that I didnt have much to say to the question “What are your hobbie
233、s?” (asked by a nine year old boy). The truth is that if Im not looking after my daughter, spending time with friends or reading, I am writing. The boy whod asked seemed quite frustrated by this answer, but the truth of the matter is that even if writing is now my full-time profession, it is also my
234、 greatest pleasure. J4: You live in Scotland, but what other countries have you visited? Which are your favorites? If you were to move, where would you choose? R: I have lived in England, France and Portugal, and visited many others. I loved Portugal (my daughter is half-Portuguese) and Im looking f
235、orward to taking her back there and trying to explain why we left the blazing sunshine for fog and snow. J1: What does your daughter think of your work? What books do you want and like to read with her? And her to read on her own? R: She is still too young for me to read the Harry Potter books to he
236、r, but I am really looking forward to a time when I can share them with her. She loves the Beatrix Potter books and I recently read her The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe, which she thoroughly enjoyed. J2: Thanks for sparing time with us.

313、s an English archaeologist and Egyptologist. He is most famous as the discoverer of KV62, the tomb of Tutankhamun in the Valley of the Kings, Luxor, Egypt.Howard Carter was born in 1874 in Kensington, London, the youngest son of eight children. His father, Samuel Carter, was an artist. Carter grew u
314、p in Swaffam, in northern Norfolk, and had no formal education. His father trained him in the fundamentals of drawing and painting.Carter did much work in Egypt, starting in 1891 at the age of 17 where he worked copying inscriptions and paintings. He worked on the excavation （挖掘）of Beni Hasan, the g
315、ravesite of the princes of Middle Egypt, 2000 BC. Later he came under the tutelage （监护）of William Flinders Petrie.In 1899, he was offered a position working for the Egyptian Antiquities Service, from which he resigned （听天由命）as a result of a dispute in 1905.After several hard years, Carter was introd
316、uced, in 1907, to Lord Carnarvon, an eager amateur who was prepared to supply the funds necessary for Carters work to continue. Soon, Carter was supervising all of Lord Carnarvons excavations.Lord Carnarvon financed Carters search for the tomb of a previously unknown Pharaoh, Tutankhamun, whose exis
317、tence Carter had discovered. On November 4, 1922 Carter found Tutankhamuns tomb (subsequently designated KV62), by far the best preserved and most intact （完整无缺的）pharaonic tomb ever found in the Valley of the Kings. He wired Lord Carnarvon to come, and on February 16, 1923, Carter opened the burial c
318、hamber and first saw the sarcophagus （石棺）of Tutankhamun.After cataloguing the extensive finds, Carter retired from archaeology and became a collector. He died in England in 1939 at the age of 65. The archaeologists death at this advanced age is the most common piece of evidence put forward by scepti
319、cs （怀疑论者）to refute the idea of a curse (the “Curse of the Pharaohs”) plaguing （使得灾祸）the party that violated Tutankhamuns tomb.Howard Carter is buried in Putney Vale Cemetery in West London.II The past perfect tenseThe past perfect tense is often used in English when we are relating two events which
320、happened in the past. It helps to show which event happened first. This page will explain the rules for forming and using the tense.This tense is formed using two components: the verb HAVE (in the past tense), and the past participle form of a verb.The past perfect is used to show you which of two e
321、vents happened first. Imagine that two things happened in the past:I went to see the movie.We discussed the movie in class.Here, we dont know which order the events happened in. That may be important - perhaps I went to see the movie after the discussion, or maybe I saw the movie before the discussi
322、on. There are many ways to make this sequence clear, and the past perfect is one of them. This is how we do it:I went to see the movie. We had discussed it in class.Here, we know that the discussion took place FIRST even though the sentence describing it comes afterwards. We discussed the movie, and
323、 THEN I went to see it. This can be very useful when you are telling a story or relating a sequence of events. At any point in your story, you can jump BACK to a previous event, and your reader will not be confused, because the past perfect will make it clear that the event happened previously. Here
324、 is another example:I wanted to live in a foreign country, so I applied for a job in Japan. Judy lived in Japan, so I called her to find out more about the culture and lifestyle there.(Judy was probably still living in Japan when I called her.)I wanted to live in a foreign country, so I applied for
325、a job in Japan. Judy had lived in Japan, so I called her to find out more about the culture and lifestyle there.(Judy no longer lived in Japan she returned from there before I applied for the job.)III.

326、end in a single consonant preceded by a single vowel double the final consonant before a suffix beginning with a vowel: bag, baggage; hop, hopper; hot, hottest; red, redder; run, running; stop, stopped.

332、 a suffix beginning with a vowel: force, forcible; route, routed; glide, gliding; operate, operator; trifle, trifler. However, there are many exceptions to this rule: a. Many words of this type have alternative forms (the preferred form is given first): blame, blamable or blameable; blue, bluish or
333、blueish. And in certain cases, alternative forms have different meanings: linage or lineage (number of lines) but lineage (ancestry). b. Many words ending in ce or ge keep the e before the suffixes -able and -ous: advantage, advantageous; change, changeable; trace, traceable. c. Words ending in a si
334、lent e keep the e if the word could be mistaken for another word: dye, dyeing; singe, singeing. d. If the word ends in ie, the e is dropped and the i changed to y before the suffix -ing.

The y is retained in derivatives of baby, city, and
338、lady and before the suffixes -ship and -like: babyhood, cityscape, ladyship, ladylike. c.

339、 drily, dryness.

How to write a CV Resume or Curriculum Vitae (CV)? Whats the difference between a resume and a CV? The primary differenc
342、es are the length, the content and the purpose. A resume is a one or two page summary of your skills, experience and education. A goal of resume writing is to be brief and concise since, at best, the resume reader will spend a minute or so reviewing your qualifications. A Curriculum Vitae, commonly
343、referred to as CV, is a longer (two or more pages), more detailed synopsis. It includes a summary of your educational and academic backgrounds as well as teaching and research experience, publications, presentations, awards, honors, affiliations and other details. What to include in your CV Like a r
344、esume, your CV should include your name, contact information, education, skills and experience. In addition to the basics, a CV includes research and teaching experience, publications, grants and fellowships, professional associations and licenses, awards and other information relevant to the positi
345、on you are applying for. Start by making a list of all your background information, and then organize it into categories. Make sure you include dates on all the publications you include. How to write a CV A CV should be: l Clear well-organized and logical l Concise relevant and necessary l Complete
346、includes everything you need l Consistent dont mix styles or fonts l Current up-to-dateChoose an Appropriate Curriculum Vitae FormatMake sure you choose a curriculum vitae format that is appropriate for the position you are applying for. If you are applying for fellowship, for example, you wont need
347、 to include the personal information that may be included in an international CV. Have Several Versions of Your CVDont just write one CV and use it for every position you apply for. Have targeted and focused versions of your curriculum vitae and use them accordingly. What to Include in Your CVIn add
348、ition to your education and work history, your CV should contain your research experience, publications, grants and fellowships, courses taught, institutional service, professional associations, accreditation, presentation, licenses, and awards. What Not to Include There is no need to include your p
349、hoto, your salary history, the reason you left your previous position, or references in your CV. References should be listed separately and given to employers upon request. Curriculum Vitae FormatDouble-check your curriculum vitae for typos and grammatical errors. Then ask someone else to review it
350、for you its often hard to catch our own mistakes. Look at the format of your curriculum vitae, and again, ask someone else to take a look. Is there plenty of white space? Is it cluttered? Is your formatting consistent (bold, italic, spacing, etc.) and is the overall picture that your CV provides a p
351、rofessional and polished one? Keep it Short If possible, try to keep your CV short no more than two pages and concise. Include summaries of your employment and education, rather than lots of details. Use formal (no slang or abbreviations) and well-written language, writing simply and clearly. Tell t
352、he Truth It can be tempting to over-polish a CV and make our educational qualifications or work history sound a little better than they really are. If youre tempted to stretch the truth about your work history dont. It will come back to haunt you. Most employers conduct reference and background chec
353、ks and if your curriculum vitae doesnt match your actual work history or education, you will most likely get caught at some point and you will either not get the job or will fired if you have already been hired. V. How to write a biography?A biography is simply the story of a life. Biographies can b
354、e just a few sentences long, or they can fill an entire book or two.l Very short biographies tell the basic facts of someones life and importance. l Longer biographies include that basic information of course, with a lot more detail, but they also tell a good story. Biographies analyze and interpret
355、 the events in a persons life. They try to find connections, explain the meaning of unexpected actions or mysteries, and make arguments about the significance of the persons accomplishments or life activities. Biographies are usually about famous, or infamous people, but a biography of an ordinary p
356、erson can tell us a lot about a particular time and place. They are often about historical figures, but they can also be about people still living. Many biographies are written in chronological order. Some group time periods around a major theme (such as “early adversity” or “ambition and achievemen
357、t”). Still others focus on specific topics or accomplishments. Biographers use primary and secondary sources: l Primary sources are things like letters, diaries, or newspaper accounts. l Secondary sources include other biographies, reference books, or histories that provide information about the sub
358、ject of the biography.To write a biography you should: 1. Select a person you are interested in.2. Find out the basic facts of the persons life. 3. Think about what else you would like to know about the person, and what parts of the life you want to write most about. Some questions you might want to
359、 think about include: 1) What makes this person special or interesting? 2) What kind of effect did he or she have on the world? Other people? 3) What are the adjectives you would most use to describe the person? 4) What examples from their life illustrate those qualities? 5) What events shaped or ch
360、anged this persons life? 6) Did he or she overcome obstacles? Take risks? Get lucky? 7) Would the world be better or worse if this person hadnt lived? How and why?4. Do additional research at your library or on the Internet to find information that helps you answer these questions and tell an interesting story. 版权所有高考资源网诚招驻站老师，联系QQ2355394696
