1、普通高中课程标准实验教科书英语必修3普通高中课程标准实验教科书英语电子课本Book 3Unit 1 Festivals around the worldB3U1P1-3FESTIVALS AND CELEBRATIONSAncient FestivalsFestivals and celebrations of all kinds are held everywhere. The most ancient festivals would celebrate the end of the cold weather, planting in spring and harvest in autumn
2、. Other celebrations were held when hunters could catch animals. They would starve if food was difficult to find, so they celebrated when they had food. They lit fires and made music because they thought these festivals would bring a year of plenty.Festivals of the DeadSome festivals are held to hon
3、our the dead, or satisfy and please the ancestors, who could return either to help or to do harm. In Japan the festival is called Obon, when people should go to clean the graves and light incense in memory of their ancestors. They light lamps and play music because they think that this will lead the
4、 ancestors back to earth. In Mexico they have the Day of the Dead in early November. On this important feast day, people might eat food in shape of skulls, and cakes with “bones” on them. They offer food, flowers and gifts to the dead. The festival of Halloween had its origin as an event in memory o
5、f the dead. It is now a childrens festival, when they can go to their neighbours homes and ask for sweets. They dress up and try to frighten people. If they are not given anything, the children might play a trick.Festivals to Honour People Festivals can be held as an honour to famous people or to th
6、e gods. One of these is the Dragon Boat Festival in China, which honours the famous ancient poet, Qu Yuan. Another is Columbus Day in the USA, in memory of the arrival of Christopher Columbus in America. In India there is a national festival on October 2 to honour Mahatma Gandhi, the leader who help
7、ed gain Indias independence from Britain.Harvest FestivalsHarvest and Thanksgiving festivals can be very happy events. People are grateful because their food is gathered for the winter ,and because a season of agricultural work is over. In European countries it is the custom to decorate churches and
8、 town halls with flowers and fruit, and people get together to have meals. Some people might win awards for their animals, flowers, fruits and vegetables, like the biggest watermelon or the most handsome rooster. In China and Japan there are mid-autumn festivals, when people admire the moon and give
9、 gift of mooncakes.Spring FestivalsThe most energetic and important festivals are the ones that look forward to the end of winter and to the coming of spring. At the Spring Festival in China, people eat dumplings, fish and meat, and may give children lucky money in the red paper. There are dragon da
10、nces and carnivals, and families celebrate the lunar New Year together. In some Western countries there are very exciting carnivals, which take place forty days before Easter, usually in February. They might include parades, dancing in the streets day and night, loud music and colourful clothing of
11、all kinds. Easter is an important religious and social festival in Christian countries. It celebrates the return of Jesus for Christians and it also celebrates the coming of spring. In Japan, the Cherry Blossom Festival happens a little later. The country is covered with cherry tree flowers so that
12、it looks as though it might be covered with pink snow.People love to get together to eat, drink and have fun with each others. Festivals let us enjoy life, be proud of our customs and forget our daily life for a little while. B3U1P4 We think it has always been the custom for people to have festivals
13、. They are a time to enjoy each others company and have fun with our friends. We think that long ago people looked forward to the celebrations. Our ancestors would sit round a fire and cook plenty of meat to eat. Then they would be satisfied with their festival.B3U1P7A SAD LOVE STORYLi Fang was hear
14、t-broken. It was Valentines Day and Hu Jin had said she would meet him at the coffee shop after work. But she didnt turn up. She could be with her friends right now laughing at him. She said she would be there at seven oclock, and he thought she would keep her word. He had looked forward to meeting
15、her all day, and now he was alone with his roses and chocolates, like a fool. Well, he was not going to hold his breath for her apologise. He would drown his sadness in coffee. It was obvious that the manager of the coffee shop was waiting for Li Fang to leavehe wiped the tables, then sat down and t
16、urned on the TVjust what Li Fang needed! A sad Chinese story about lost love. The seventh daughter of the Goddess of Heaven visited the earth. Her name was Zhinu, the weaving girl, and she was the most lovely of the daughters. While she was on earth she met the herd boy Niulang and they fell in love
17、. (“Just like me and Hu Jin, ”thought Li Fang.) They got married secretly, and they were very happy. (“We could be like that, ” thought Li Fang.) When the Goddess of Heaven knew that her daughter was married to a human, she became very angry and made the weaving girl return to Heaven. Niulang tried
18、to follow her, but the river of stars, the Milky Way, stopped him. Finding that Zhinu was heart-broken, her mother finally decided to let the couple cross the Milky Way to meet once a year. This happens when the stars Vega and Altair meet in the Heaven. Magpies make a bridge of their wings so the co
19、uple can cross the river to meet on the seventh lunar month. people in China hope that the weather will be fine on that day, because if it is raining, it means that Zhinu is weeping and the couple wont be able to meet. The announcer said, “this is the story of Qiqiaojie. When foreigners hear about t
20、he story, they call it a Chinese Valentines story. Its a fine day today, so I hope you can all meet the one you love. As Li Fang set off for home, he thought, “I guess Hu Jin doesnt love me. Ill just throw these flowers and chocolates away. I dont want them to remind me of her. So he did. As he sadl
21、y passed the tea shop on the corner on his way home, he heard a voice calling him. There was Hu Jin waving at him and calling, “Why are you so late? Ive been waiting for you for a long time! And I have a gift for you!” What would he do? He had thrown away her Valentine gifts! She would never forgive
22、 him. This would not be a happy Valentines Day!B3U1P44&45 Winter carnival in QuebecWe are sitting in a caf in old Quebec, drinking hot coffee to try to warm up. The temperature is 32 degrees below freezing. The windows are covered with steam from the heat inside. Outside, the snow covers the streets
23、 and is piled up along the sidewalks and in parking lots. The music and lights of the carnival continue, but we have been watching the parades, riding in horse carriages and listening to the music all day. Our feet are freezing and our noses are red.Quebec carnival is the biggest winter festival in
24、the world every year, hundreds of thousands of people come to Quebec to take part in a week of activities. If you come, you must be prepared to keep moving, as it is too cold to stand and watch for long.Early in the morning, you can watch the snowboarding competitions on the hill overlooking the riv
25、er. The competitions speed down the track and through the air though they could fly.If you are brave enough, you can try the canoe race. Five or six men paddle in each canoe across the great St Lawrence River, which is partly frozen. Of course, the river is full of big pieces of ice, and if you were
26、 to fall in, you would freeze in less than two minutes.One of the favourite events is the dog-sled race, in which teams of about 6 Husky dogs pull long sleds at great speeds along a snowy track. One person runs behind the sled, shouting to the dogs to encourage them. The sound of the dogs barking, t
27、he calls of the drivers and the shouts of the crowd make an exciting Northern experience. The dogs are beautiful strong animals, with long, thick fur. Many of them have blue eyes.After admiring the ice sculptures everywhere in the city, much like those in Harbin in China, you can have a cup of tae o
28、r coffee in an igloo. It is amazing how warm these ice houses can be!Late in the evening, you can go to the snow palace, where Bonhomme the snowman is king, and join the crowd. You can dance outside to the music of a band, who are all dressed in heavy clothes even some of their instruments are dress
29、ed up for winter.Finally we sit down in our caf to warm up and to plan tomorrow perhaps well join the snowmobile races or perhaps well just sleep in.Book 3 Unit 2 Healthy eatingB3U2P10 COME AND EAT HERE (1)Wang Peiwei sat in his empty restaurant feeling very frustrated. It had been a very strange mo
30、rning. Usually he got up early and prepared his menu of mutton kebabs, roast pork and fried rice. Then by lunchtime they would all be sold. His restaurant ought to be full of people. But not today! Why was it so? What could have happened? He thought of his mutton kebabs and fatty pork cooked in the
31、hottest, finest oil. His fried rice was hot but did not taste of fat. His cola was sugary and cold and his ice cream was made of eggs, milk, cream and fruit. “Nothing could have been better,” he thought. Suddenly he saw his friend Li Maochang hurrying by. “Hello, Maochang,”he called, “Your usual?” B
32、ut Maochang seemed not to hear. What was the matter? Something terrible must have happened if Maochang was not coming to eat with him as he always did.Pengwei followed Li Maochang into a newly-opened small restaurant at the end of the street. There was a sign in the window.Tired of all that fat? Wan
33、t to be thinner?Come inside to Yong Huis slimming restaurant.Only slimming foods served here.Make yourself thin again.Curiosity drove Wang Pengwei inside. It was full of people. A very thin lady came forward. “Welcome!” she said, “My name is Yong Hui.I will take all that fat off you in two weeks if
34、you eat here every day.” Then she gave a menu to Wang Peiwei. There were only two kinds of food and one drink on it: raw vegetables, fruit and water. Wang Peiwei was amazed at this and especially at the prices. It cost more than a good meal in his own restaurant. He could not believe his eyes! He th
35、rew away the menu and hurried outside. On his way home he thought about his own menu. Did it make people fat? He wondered if he should go to the library to find out. He couldnt have Yong Hui getting away with telling people lies! He had better do some research!After reading, he realised what was wro
36、ng with Yong Huis restaurant. It was not giving its customers energy-giving food! After eating in her restaurant people would become tired very quickly. Perhaps this was a way to win his customers back! Peng Wei wrote his own sign. It said:Want to feel fit?Come and eat here!Our food gives you energy
37、 all day!The competition between the two restaurants was on!B3U2P12 Daisy wished to be so that she could wear all the latest, cool clothes designed for the young. She decided to do some into what foods should be eaten to become thinner. She learned that one of the of not eating enough was to become
38、very tired quickly. When she went to the doctor, he told her she could be thinner as well as healthy if she ate more vegetables like beans, and .So she did. She felt very fit when she started eating more foods as well as her usual energygiving foods. She even began to enjoy eating all the vegetables
39、 rather than cooked. She soon looked like a model!B3U2P14&P15 COME AND EAT HERE (2)The next day Wang Pengweis restaurant was nearly full and he felt happier. Perhaps he would be able to earn his living after all and not have to close his restaurant. He did not look forward to being in debt because h
40、is restaurant was no longer popular. He smiled .But the smile left his face when he saw Yong Hui walking in. She did not look happy but glared at him as she moved round the customers. “May I ask what you were doing in my restaurant yesterday? I thought you were a new customer and now I find you came
41、 only to spy on me and my menu,” she shouted. “Please excuse me,” he calmly explained,“I wanted to know where all my customers had gone yesterday. I followed one of them and found them in your restaurant. I dont want to upset you but I found your menu so limited that I stopped worrying and started a
42、dvertising the benefits of my food. Why dont you sit down and try a meal?” Yong Hui agreed to stay and soon they were both enjoying the dumplings, fatty pork and cola.When they were served the ice cream Yong Hui began to look ill. “I feel sick with all this fat and heavy food,”she said,“I miss my ve
43、getables and fruit.”Wang Pengwei was just enjoying a second plate of dumplings so he sighed.“yes,”he added,“and I would miss my dumplings and fatty pork. But dont you tired quickly?” “Well, now you mention it. I do have to rest a lot, ”admitted Yong Hui. “But dont you think it would be better if you
44、 were a bit thinner?” she asked Wang Pengwei. “Im sure you would feel much healthier.” They began chatting about menus and balanced diets. “My research has shown me that neither your restaurant nor mine offers a balanced diet,”explained Pengwei,“I dont offer enough fibre and you dont offer enough bo
45、dybuilding or energygiving foods. Perhaps we ought to combine our menus and provide a balanced menu with foods full of energy and fibre. ”So that is what they did ,They served raw vegetables with the hamburgers and boiled the potatoes rather than fried them .Then they served fresh fruit with ice cre
46、am. In this way they cut down the fat and increased the fibre in the meal. Their balanced menus became such a success that before long Wang Pengwei became slimmer and Yong Hui heavier. After some time the found that their business cooperation had turned into a personal one .Finally they got married
47、and lived happily ever after! B3U2P52-53THE TOWN HAS TO DECIDE(At the meeting that evening there are two speakers: one for and one against building a McDonalds restaurant.)FOR BUILDING A MCDONALDSI was excited when I heard that our community(社区) was to have its own McDonalds restaurant. I thought ab
48、out all those young people who would not have to go to the next town to buy their favourite burgers and chips. McDonalds cares about healthy eating too and works with scientists to provide food that is of high quality,safe and healthy. It is also cheap .They often provide salads as well as burgers a
49、nd chips. You can also choose between cola and milk shakes(奶昔). Of course it also means more work for our area that needs jobs badly. McDonalds say they are interested in doing what is right for the community and being a good neighbour. So I think they will be concerned about providing parking for the cars in our main street. Many of our young peo
