9、s born in Germany, and German was his native language. When he was still a young man, he was forced to leave his homeland for political reasons. He stayed in Belgium for a few years; then he went to France. Before long he had to move on again. In 1849, he went to England and made London the base for
10、 his revolutionary work.Marx had learned some French and English at school. When he got to England, he found that his English was too limited. He started working hard to improve it. He made such rapid progress that before long he began to write articles in English for an American newspaper. In fact,
11、 his English in one of these articles was so good that Engels wrote him a letter and praised him for it. Marx wrote back to say that Engels praise had greatly encouraged him. However, he went on to explain that he was not too sure about two things-the grammar and some of the idioms.These letters wer
12、e written in 1853. In the years that followed, Marx kept on studying English and using it. When he wrote one of his great works, The Civil War in France, he had mastered the language so well that he was bale to write the book in English.In the 1870s, when Marx was already in his fifties, he found it
13、 important to study the situation in Russia, so he began to learn Russian. At the end of six months he had learned enough to read articles and reports in Russian. In one of his books, Marx gave some advice on how to learn a foreign language. He said when a person is learning a foreign language; he m
14、ust not always be translating everything into his own language. If he does this, it shows he has not mastered it. He must be able to use the foreign language, forgetting all about his own. If he can not do this, he has not really grasped the spirit of the foreign language and can not use it freely.八
15、六版高中英语课文52、AT HOME IN THE FUTUREA medical examination without a doctor or nurse in the room? Doing shopping at home? Borrowing books from the library without leaving your home?These ideas may seem strange to you. But scientists are working hard to turn them into realities.Let us suppose we can visit
16、 a home at the end of this century. We will visit a boy named Charlie Green. He is not feeling well this morning. His mother, Mrs Green, wants the doctor to see him. That is, she wants the doctor to listen to him. She brings a set of wires to Charlies room. These wires are called sensors. She places
17、 one sensor in his mouth and one on his chest. She puts another one around his wrist and one on his forehead. Then she plugs the sensors into a wall outlet. She says the code “TCP“. This means “telephone call placed.“ A little light flashes on the wall. The Greens wireless telephone is ready for a c
18、all.Mrs Green says “2478“, the doctors telephone number. From a speaker on the wall comes the doctors voice: “Good morning.“Good morning, Dr Scott,“ answers Mrs Green. “Charlie isnt feeling too well this morning. Ive put the sensors on him. I wonder if you can examine him now.“Sure,“ the doctors voi
19、ce says. “Well, he doesnt have a fever. And his pulse is fine. Now, breathe deeply, Charlie.“Charlie does so.“Just a little cold,“ says the doctor. “Better stay inside today, Charlie. And take it easy.“Thank you, Doctor,“ says Mrs Green. “TCC (telephone call completed).“ The light on the wall turns
20、off. The phone call and the examination are finished.“Charlie,“ says Mrs Green,“ since you have to stay at home, why dont you do some shopping? You can pick out your new bicycle. After all, your birthday is only two weeks away.“Great,“ Charlie answers.Charlie and his mother sit in front of one of th
21、e vision phones. There are several in their house.“TCP,“ says Charlie. The word ready appears on the screen of the vision phone.“New Forest Bicycle Shop,“ a voice says. “May I help you?“八六版高中英语课文6Charlie answers, “Id like to see your ten-speed bicycles.“In the next few minutes, pictures of many mode
22、ls of the bicycles are flashed on the screen. The price of each model is also shown.Then the voice asks, “Are you interested in any of these models?“Yes, Im interested in model 6.“Do you wish to place an order at this time?“Not just yet,“ answers Mrs Green. “My sons birthday is in two weeks time. Th
23、ank you. TCC.“The vision phone shuts off.Such would be our home in the future.八六版高中英语课文72-1、A VISIT TO THE LIBRARY IN THE FUTUREThe shopping is finished. Charlies parents tell him they have to go out for a little while. “Why dont you visit the library while were out?“ says Charlies dad. “I know they
24、 have some new books on basket-ball, your favourite game.“ Charlie goes to one of the visionphones. He places a call to the library. He asks to see one of the new books on basket-ball.Basket-ball Giant, the name of the book, is flashed on the screen. “Turn,“ says Charlie. The first page of the book
25、is shown on the screen. Then the second, and the third. Charlie has read about fifty pages of it. Then he hears his mothers voice coming through a speaker on the wall. Charlie turns off the visionphone. He says hello to his mother.“Where are you?“ he adds.“Were driving on the freeway,“ Mrs Green say
26、s. “This is taking a little more time than we thought. We wont be back until two oclock. Better get some lunch for yourself.“What are you doing?“ Charlie asks.“Well explain later,“ she says.“O.K.“ says Charlie.3、The Blind Men and the ElephantOnce upon a time there were six blind men who lived in a v
27、illage in India. Every day they went to the road nearby and stood there begging. They had often heard of elephants, but they had never seen one, for, being blind, how could they?One morning an elephant was led down the road where they stood. When they heard that an elephant was passing by, they aske
28、d the driver to stop the beast so that they could have a “look“.Of course they could not look at him with their eyes, but they thought they might learn what kind of animal he was by touching and feeling him. For, you see, they trusted their own sense of touch very much.八六版高中英语课文8The first blind man
29、happened to place his hand on the elephants side. “Well, well,“ he said. “This beast is exactly like a wall.“The second grasped one of the elephants tusks and felt it. “Youre quite mistaken,“ he said. “Hes round and smooth and sharp. Hes more like a spear than anything else.“The third happened to ta
30、ke hold of the elephants trunk. “Youre both completely wrong,“ he said. “This elephant is like a snake, as anybody can see.“The fourth opened both his arms and closed them round one of the elephants legs. “Oh, how blind you are!“ he cried. “Its very clear that hes round and tall like a tree.“The fif
31、th was a very tall man, and he caught hold of one of the elephants ears. “Even the blindest person must see that this elephant isnt like any of the things you name,“ he said. “Hes exactly like a huge fan.“The sixth man went forward to feel the elephant. He was old and slow and it took him quite some
32、 time to find the elephant at all. At last he got hold of the beasts tail. “Oh, how silly you all are!“ cried he. “The elephant isnt like a wall, or a spear, or a snake, or a tree; neither is he like a fan. Any man with eyes in his head can see thathes exactly like a rope.“Then the driver and the el
33、ephant moved on, and the six men sat by the roadside all day, quarrelling about the elephant. They could not agree with one another, because each believed that he knew just what the beast looked like.It is not only blind men who make such stupid mistakes. People who can see sometimes act just as foo
34、lishly.4、GALILEO AND ARISTOTLEAbout 2300 years ago, there lived in Greece a great thinker named Aristotle. He observed that feathers fell to the ground slowly, while stones fell much faster. He thought it over carefully and concluded that heavy objects always fell faster than light ones. His conclus
35、ion certainly sounded reasonable. But we now know that it is not true.In those days people seldom did experiments to test their ideas. When they observed anything that happened, they thought about it and then drew a conclusion. Once Aristotle made up his mind that heavy objects always fell faster th
36、an light objects, he taught it as a truth to his students. And because he was Aristotle, the great thinker, no one questioned his idea for almost 2000 years.八六版高中英语课文9Then, almost 400 years ago, an Italian scientist named Galileo began to question Aristotles theory of falling objects. He was not rea
37、dy to believe something just because Aristotle said so. He decided to do some experiments to test Aristotles theory.Galileo lived in the city of Pisa, where there is a leaning tower about 180 feet high. From the top of the tower Galileo dropped a light ball and a heavy ball at exactly the same time.
38、 They both fell at about the same speed and hit the ground together. He tried the experiments again and again. Every time he got the same result. At last, he decided that he had found the truth about falling objects. As we know now, heavy objects and light objects fall at the same speed unless air h
39、olds them back. A feather falls slower than a stone only because the air holds the feather back more than it does the stone.When Galileo told people of his discovery, no one would believe him. But Galileo was not discouraged. He went on doing experiments to test the truth of other old ideas. He buil
40、t a telescope through which he could study the skies. He collected facts that proved the earth and all the other planets move around the sun.Today we praise Galileo and call him one of the founders of modern science. He observed things carefully and never took anything for granted. Instead, he did e
41、xperiments to test and prove an idea before he was ready to accept it.An experiment was done on the moon in July, 1971. One of the US astronauts who made the first deep space walk on the moon dropped a hammer and a feather together. They both landed on the surface of the moon at the same time. This
42、experiment proved that Galileos theory of falling objects is true.4-1、PENICILLINIf you leave a piece of bread in a warm damp place, mould will soon grow on it. When this happens, we say the bread “has gone mouldy“. Mould can grow on all kinds of things besides food. It grows from spores which are in
43、 the air. If the conditions are right, a spore can quickly get around and form a mould. This happens quite commenly. We have all probably seen it. In 1928, Sir Alexander Fleming found that mould had killed some germs he was trying to grow in his lab. If he had not noticed this, the world would have
44、lost one of the greatest discoveries of the century. Fleming called the substance “penicillin“. Because penicillin can kill germs, doctors use it to treat diseases. It has saved millions of 八六版高中英语课文10lives. Scientists grow large quantities of common mould so that they can get penicillin from it in
45、order to make antibiotics, that is, substances that kill germs. Next time you see some mould on a piece of bread, remember that it is one of mans greatest friends!5、The Lost NecklacePlace: a park in ParisTime: a summer afternoon in 1870People: Mathilde Loisel, wife Pierre Loisel, husband(Jeanne is sitting in the park. Mathilde walks towards her, she stops and speaks to Jeanne.)Mathilde: Good afternoon, Jeanne.Jeanne : (Looking at the other woman) Im sorry, but I don，t think I know you.Mathilde: No, you wouldnt but many years ago you knew me well. I，m Mathilde Loisel.
