Part A Reading Aloud

This is one of the greatest masterpieces of Chinese landscape painting. When westerners first discovered Chinese paintings like this one, they could not see their value. To understand painting, you need to understand calligraphy. The character is not a picture of an object in the real world, but a symbol for an idea. As Chinese characters are symbols for ideas, so elements in a Chinese landscape, rocks, water, trees and mountains, became symbols of concepts. For the Chinese, pictures painted with a brush are symbols that carry both the surface meaning and additional hidden meanings. Chinese paintings are not just pretty pictures. They mean something.

Get a good sleep and you might get a better score. ）

2、睡眠好还有其他什么好处吗？

The Cave

Tom loved to explore. He would walk long miles in the mountains looking for new things. One day, Tom and his best friend wanted to go to the top of a mountain. That mountain was almost unknown to other climbers. They would have to make their own path to the top. There, they found a cave. It was very dark inside. They took their flashlights and turned them on, so they could see where they were going. As they walked deeper into the cave, they found themselves in a big room. To their surprise, on the walls of the room, there were drawings of deer, trees and people. Someone had been there long before and had made those drawings. They looked very old and fantastic. Tom took out his camera and took pictures of the drawings on the walls. When it was getting late, Tom and his friend had to leave the cave and go back. They decided to come again. Two weeks later, an earthquake destroyed the cave. So Tom and his friend never had a chance to see those drawings a second time. The pictures taken by Tom were the only proof of the existence of the cave.

For thousands of years, human beings have been fascinated by whales. It is uncertain when, how or why the ancestors of the whale gradually moved into a purely aquatic environment. Freed from the gravity of the land, the whales evolved to become the true ocean beings of the planet. For most of our shared history, our relationship with the whales has been a distant one. If a memory remains behind the eyes of these gentle creatures, it is rarely if ever shown. Rather our first furtive attempts to enter the whale’s domain seem greeted with curiosity and a longing for communication and understanding.

The wind has had some of its most dramatic effects on human history when it interacts with the energy of the oceans. It’s an interaction that can have major long term consequences. But it can also bring short term disaster. The sea acts as a main store of the sun’s heat. There’s more energy in the top 3 meters of the ocean than the whole of the atmosphere. By pumping this energy into the air, the ocean is constantly influencing the wind. A principle that is demonstrated each year: the hotter the ocean, the faster the air above rises.

The consumer revolution created both a huge opportunity and a problem for manufacturers. The potential to increase trade was there. But at the beginning of the 18th century, the difficulty of getting raw materials to their workshops, and the finished products to the market was obvious.

And they didn’t only connect big cities, they also created a trading network between small towns, increasing the movement of goods and ideas around the country. As the roads improved in Britain, so journey time’s decreased.
