Unit2
Body language
Debbie
and
Simon
are
students.
They
both
have
part-
time
jobs at a travel company.
A
Well-dressed
lady
entered
the
office.
She
looked
at
Debbie
and
Simon,
and
then
walked
over
to
Debbie.
Debbie
gave
her a cheerful
greeting.
“What’s the matter?” Mr Yang
asked.
“ People always
choose Debbie instead of me. I don’t
understand.”
“I
do.
It’s the way
you communicate.”
“
How
can
that
be?”
Simon
asked.
“I
don’t
get
a
chance
to
spea
k.”
“Communicating is more than just
speaking. Your body
language is
important too.”
“Body
language?”
“It’s the way you
stand and sit. It’s your gesture
s and
the ex pression on your face. Your whole
appearance
communicates
things.
You
don’t
give
people
a
good
impression, Simon. You
look down, you never smile and you
don’t turn your head towards
them.
“Look at
Debbie. She’s holding her head up. She he
always smiles and
looks friendly. Her body language is
making people feel welcome, so they go
to her for
help.”
Simon
decided
to
improve
his
body
language.
He
sat
up
straight
and
tried
smiling
at
people.
Minutes
later,
a
beautiful girl entered. She walked over
to Simon. A few
moments later, she left
with a smile.
Mr Yang came
over at once and said, “You mad
e a good
impression
on
her,
Simon.”
“That
was
my
sister,
“ said
Simon.
“She wanted to remind me that that
tomorrow is her birthday.”

Unit3 Traditional
skills
Wang Damin is a fisherman.
Although he is over 65, he
is very fit
and still
enjoys
working.
Damin
uses
cormorants
to
catch fish.
Cormorants are
large black
birds. They
are good at
catching fish because
they can swim
well. They can dive down and stay under the
water for up to two minutes.
Damin usually sets off in the late
afternoon and gets
the
cormorants
ready
for
work.
First,
he
ties
a
piece
of
grass
around their necks to stop them from
eating big fish. Then
when Damin's boat
reaches the right place in the river, he
pushes
them
into
the
river.
Damin
uses
several
ways
to
attract
fish. During the
day, he jumps Up and down on his
boat.
After dark, he hangs a Iight on a post at the
front
of
the
boat.
The
cormorants
bring
the
fish
back
to
the
boat.
he
fish
are
then
taken
and
thrown
into
a
big
basket
by
Damin.
No nets are required
for this type of fishing.
Cormorant
fishing was once practiced in Iots of places
in South-East China, and there were
many fishermen in the
area. But today,
few young people are Interested In it. In
50
years
，
perhaps
there
will
be
no
more
cormorant
fishermen
in the world.
王大明是个渔夫。虽然他已经
65<
/p>
岁了，但他很健康，仍然很喜欢工作。
大明使用鸬鹚捕鱼。鸬鹚是大型的黑色鸟类。它们善于捕鱼，因为它们能在水里游
得很好
。他们可以潜水，在水下呆两分钟。
大明通常在下午晚些时候
出发，让鸬鹚做好工作的准备。首先，他把一根草绑在脖
子上，阻止它们吃大鱼。然后，
当大明的船到达河里适当位置的时候，他把它们赶到河
里。大明用几种方法来吸引鱼。白
天，他在船上跳来跳去。天黑以后，他在船前面的杆
上挂一盏灯。鸬鹚把鱼带回到船上。
然后，大明取下鱼，把它们扔进一个大篮子里。这
种捕鱼不需要鱼网。
< br>
.
.
.
鸬鹚捕鱼曾经在中国东南部的许多
地方进行过，
而且这个地区有很多渔民。
但如今，
很少有年轻人对此感兴趣。
50
年后，世界上就再也
不会有鸬鹚渔民了。
Unit 4
Cartoons and comic
strips
How to make a
cartoon
First, you need to
decide on
some basic ideas
for a
story.
This story is
about a robot, Han. He always forgets
things.
One day, Han meets
his friends Sarah and Tim
at the
underground station. He says, “I’m
happy.
I bought a new
notebook. Now I won’t forget
things.”
Sarah says, “Yes, I
have one too. Here it is.”
Tim as
ks, “Where’s yours,
Han?”
Han says, “Oh, no! I
forgot to bring it!”
In
the
second
stage,
think
about
the
kinds
of
characters
you want and what
they will
look like.
Han
is
a
tall
robot.
He
has
square
eyes.
They
are
actually
video
cameras.
Tim
wears
glasses,
so
he
looks
clever.
Sarah is a pleasant girl. She has
straight, black hair.
Now make a rough
sketch of the story.
Next, use a
computer to draw detailed pictures and add
colour.
To
make
the
characters
and
things
appear
to
move,
each
picture
should
be
made
a
little
different
from
the one before it.
In the
next stage, a computer program
is used
to
put
the pictures together
as a film.
Finally,
record
the
voices
and
sound
effects.
The
actors will do the
characters’ voices. Their speech must
match the pictures. Sound effects, like
the noise of the
underground, must also
be added separately .
.
.
.
After
everything
has
been
checked,
the
cartoon
is
ready
to
be
played for everyone to enjoy.
如何制作动画片
首先，你需要确定一个故事的基本构思。
这个故事是关于一个机器人，汉。他总是忘记事情。
有一天，汉在地铁站遇见他的朋友莎拉和蒂姆。他说：
“我很高兴。我买
了一个新
笔记本。现在我不会忘记事情。
”
莎拉说：
“是的，我也有一个。就在这里。
”
蒂姆问，
“你的汉子呢
？”
“
汉说：
“哦，不！我忘记带了！
“
第二步，想好你想要的角色的性格类型和它们的样子。
汉是一个高大的机器人。他有一双方眼睛。它们实际上是摄像机。蒂姆戴眼镜，所
以看起来很聪明。莎拉是个讨人喜欢的女孩。她有一头笔直的黑发。
现在草拟一下这个故事的草图。
接下
来，
使用计算机绘制详细图片并添加颜色。
为了使人物和事物看
起来像是移动
的，每幅图画应该与之前的画有所不同。
下一步，用一个计算机程序把把图片放在一起合成一部电影。
最后，录声及（制作）和音响效果。演员们要为人物配音。他们的语言必须与图片
匹配。声音效果，像地铁的噪音，也必须单独增加。
在一切都被检查之后，动画片就可以播放了给大家欣赏了。

forests there.
FOOD
Pandas
in the wild usually eat bamboo. In zoos, their
menu
includes
bamboo,

carrots.
A
giant

can
eat
as much as30 kilograms
of bamboo a day.
Behaviour
Panda
like to live
on their own. they need to eat a
lot to stay healthy, so
they
spend
more than 12 hours a
day
eating. Although they
are big and heavy,
it is not
difficult for them to climb
trees.
They arestrong enough
to protect
Pandas live for about 20 years in the
wild, but in zoos
they can live for
up to35 years.
The future
People
are
cutting
down
forests,
so
the

killing
them
for
their
fur.
It

大熊猫
大熊猫是一种熊。它有一白色
的脸，眼睛周围有黑色的斑点。它也有黑色的耳朵、肩膀和
腿。身体的其余部分是白色的
。
家
熊猫生活在中西部的高山上。他们住在那里的竹林里。
食物
野生熊猫通常吃竹子。动物园里
的菜单包括竹子、苹果和胡萝卜。一只大熊猫每天可以吃
30
公
斤竹子。
.
.
.
行为
熊猫喜欢独自生活。
他们需要多吃才能保持健康，
所以他们每天花
12
个多小时吃东西。
虽
然它们又大又重，
但它们不难爬到树上去。他们足够坚强来保护自己。
熊猫在野
外生活大约
20
年，但在动物园里，它们可以活
35
年。
未来
人们正在砍伐森林，因此熊猫正
在失去家园。有些人为了他们的皮毛而杀了他们。他们这
么做是残忍的，现在世界上没有
多少熊猫。对我们来说保护他们是很重要的。
