高一英语课文14[] 高一英语课文14 高一课文:Unit 14 Mainly Revision Jane is asking Zhou Lan for advice. She wants to improve her biology. 珍妮在征求周兰的建议。她想提高自己的生物学水平。 JANE: Hello, Zhou Lan. Can I ask you for some advice? 珍妮:你好，周兰。我想征求一下你的建议，可以吗, ZHOU LAN: Of course. 周兰:当然。 JANE: Well, I've recently started biology. I really enjoy it, but I'm tired of so much reading. I want to improve, but I don't know how. What can you suggest? 珍妮:喏，我最近开始学生物学了。我可喜欢学啦～但要读的东西太 多，我很烦。我想提高它，但又不知道怎么样才能提高。你有什么建 议吗, ZHOU LAN: Well, have you considered using the lab in your free class? I suggest you ask Mr. Wu. 周兰:噢，你是否考虑过在自习课上利用这个实验室,我建议你问问 吴先生。 JANE: Well, yes, I could do that. But I don't want to do anything alone. 珍妮:哦，好，这事我能办。但我又不想一个人做事情。 ZHOU LAN: I've got an idea. Why not do a tomato experiment? You don't need anything special. Ask Mr. Wu if you can have some old boxes. Use the lab and prepare some plant food for young tomatoes. I mean powder that is made from fish, blood and bone. You must weigh it carefully. That's why you need the lab. Then grow some tomatoes in one box which has plant food in the soil and some in another box which doesn't. Then see which plants grow higher, measure them with a ruler and write down your results. 周兰:我有个。干吗不做西红柿实验呢,你不需要什么特别的东 西。问问吴先生，你能否搞到一些旧箱子。用实验室为西红柿幼苗准 备一些养分。我是指用鱼、血和骨头制成的粉末。你必须仔细地称一 称重量。这就是你为什么要用实验室的原因。然后，在一个箱子里种 一些西红柿，里面的土有养料，而在另一个箱子里也种一些，但里面 的土没有养料。过后看看哪种西红柿长得比较高，用尺子量量并记录 下你的实验结果。 JANE: Why don't you do the experiment? I'm sure you would do it really well. 珍妮:你干吗不做这个实验呢,我相信你一定会干的很棒的。 ZHOU LAN: OK. I've got a better idea. Why don't we do it together? 周兰:好，我有了一个更好的主意。为什么我们不一起干呢, Dear Amy, 亲爱的埃米: Thanks for your letter. It was lovely to hear from you. You asked me if I was enjoying my new school. I'm not enjoyiny it at all! 谢谢你的来信。收到你的信很愉快。你问我是否喜欢我的新学校。我 一点也不喜欢～ I thought it was going to be fun. I also thought that I would make lots of new friends. However, I find it hard. All the other students went to the same junior middle school, so they get along very well with each other. I try my best to be friendly, but they do not seem kind to me. They make fun of me because I'm shorter than anyone else. So I spend a lot of my time alone. What do you think I should do? 我原以为新学校一定很好玩。我还以为我会交上许多新朋友。然而我 发现交朋友很难。所有其它学生都是从同一所初中升上来的，所以他 们彼此相处很好。我尽力对他们表示友好，而他们对我似乎并不亲切。 他们取笑我，因为我比他们任何一位都矮。因此，许多时间我都是独 自一人度过的。你认为我该怎么办呢, Dear Amy, 亲爱的埃米: I have a problem and I'm writing to ask you for advice. This is secret, so please don't tell anybody else. 我有一个问题，特地写信来征求你的意见。这是一个秘密，因此，请 别告诉其它任何人。 I used to get along very well with my cousin and we used to be very good friends. We were planning to spend part of the winter vacation together, but now I don't think I want to invite him home. 我过去同我的表弟相处得很好，我们曾经是好朋友。我们原来打算寒 假里有一段时间在一起度过，现在我不想邀他来我家了。 Recently I've discovered that he's started to tell lies. When I told him that it was wrong to tell lies, he just laughed at me. The problem is, should I tell his parents or his teacher, or should I keep quiet? He certainly isn't going to listen to me. 最近我发现他开始说谎了。当我告诉他说谎不好时，他只是对我笑一 笑。我的问题是:我该不该告诉他的父母或他的老师，或者什么也不 说,他肯定是不会听我的话的。 Dear Ken, 亲爱的凯恩: Thank you for your letter. I'm sorry that you are not happy yet in your new school. It is wrong of the other children to make fun of you. 谢谢你给我写信。听说你在新学校并不愉快，我感到很遗憾。别的孩 子取笑你，这是错误的。 First of all, don't worry about being short. It really doesn't matter. Lots of people are short. You're fine just as you are. 首先，不要因为个子矮而发愁。这的确没有什么关系。许多人都是矮 个子。你这样就挺好嘛。 Have you considered looking for one special friend? I suggest you choose someone who you think is kind and friendly. So why don't you look for someone who might be a special friend? And don't spend too much time alone. 你是否考虑过要找一位特别亲密的朋友呢,我建议你挑选一位你认 为亲切而友好的人。你为什么不去找一位有可能成为特别亲密朋友的 人呢,不要一个人消磨太多的时间了。 Dear Yang Mei, 亲爱的杨梅: Thank you for writing to me. You are quite right; it is wrong to tell lies. It is not a good idea to spend your vacation with someone who tells lies. It is better to lose a friend than to do this. 谢谢你给我写信。你说得对，说谎是错误的。跟说谎的人在一起度假， 这个想法不好。与其这样做倒不如失去一个朋友。 Why don't you have another talk with your cousin? Why not tell him that you don't want to be friends with him unless he stops telling lies? 你为什么不去跟你表弟再谈一谈呢,为什么不告诉他，如果他再说 谎，你就不想同他交朋友了呢, I suggest that you don't ask him home for the vacation. Tell him why you don't want to spend it with him. 我建议你不要邀请他到你家去度假。告诉他你为什么不想同他一起度 假的原因。
