Lesson 66Lesson66 Sweet as honey Part 1: Text The Hatheld Puffin is a modern aero-plane, but its designer, Mr John Wimpenny, is finding it difficult to get it off the ground. The reason for this is that this plane is also a bicycle. Its pilot has to pedal hard to get it into the air. After Mr Wimpenny had the plane built, it was tested thoroughly. In 1961, it was the first man-powered aircraft to fly half a mile. While being flown by a champion amateur cyclist in 1963, the plane crashed on an airfield. Since then, Mr Wimpenny has had it rebuilt. He has had the length of the wings increased so that they now measure 93 feet--almost as long as those of a Dakota. Many people have shown interest in this new and unusual sport. But though air cyclists may learn how to fly over short distances, and may, eventually, even get across the English Channel, it is doubtful whether they will ever cycle across the Atlantic. 图片 🌻Part 2: New words and expressions 1 Lancaster ['læŋkəstə] n.兰开斯特 2 bomber['bɔmə] n.轰炸机 3 remote [ri'məut] a.偏僻的 4 Pacific [pə'sifik] n.太平洋 5 damage ['dæmidʒ] v.毁坏 6 wreck [rek] n.残骸 7 rediscover [ri:di'skʌvə] v.重新发现 8 aerial ['eəriəl] a.航空的 9 survey ['sə:vei] n.调查 10 rescue ['reskju:] v.营救 11package ['pækidʒ] v.把…打包 12 enthusiast[in'θju:ziæst] n.热心人 13 restore[ri'stɔ:] v.修复 14 imagine[i'mædʒin] v.想像 15 packing ['pækiŋ] 包装箱 16 colony ['kɔləni] n.群 17 bee [bi:] n.蜂 18 hive [haiv] n.蜂房 19 preserve [pri'zə:v] v.保护 20 beeswax ['bi:zwæks] n.蜂蜡 🍂🍂🍂🍂🍂🍂🍂🍂🍂🍂 ★bomber n. 轰炸机, 炸弹手, 轰炸员, 投弹手 The port has been attacked by German bombers. bomb n. 炸弹 It's not known who planted the bomb. a time bomb 定时炸弹 ★remote 1). adj. 偏僻的，偏远的 remote village遥远的村庄 His theories are somewhat remote from reality. lonely adj. 偏僻的(孤零零的) a lonely island 2) adj. 时间上久远的，遥远的 in the remote past 在遥远的过去 in the remote future 在遥远的将来 ★pacific 1) n. 太平洋 the Pacific Ocean the Atlantic Ocean大西洋 ；the Indian ocean印度洋 ；the Arctic ocean 北冰洋 2)adj. 和解的，和平的，爱和平 a pacific solution 和平解决 a dov
