Unit 4 Period 1 Reading and Thinking (Ⅰ) 语篇研读课（教用Word）-【金榜题名】2025-2026学年高二英语选择性必修第二册高中同步学案（人教版）

Unit 4　Journey Across a Vast Land [单元话题链接] 旅游和交通是普通高中新《英语课程标准》中的规定话题之一，是培养学生英语学科素养的一个重要维度，它旨在帮助学生了解不同地区的文化和风俗，提高学生解决旅游生活问题的能力。 Paul Roberts, 15, lives in New York. Like thousands of other American students, he usually goes away to a summer camp during the school holidays. These camps are just for teenagers, without their parents, and Paul always has a great time. But this summer he's doing something different——he's going on an adventure holiday in Hawaii. He tells us about his plan, “It's a camping holiday for three weeks in Hawaii，for kids from 14 to 18. I'm leaving on 23 July and coming back on 12 August.” First, we're well-prepared and walking through the forest on an old native Hawaiian path. They say it's very beautiful there, with huge waterfalls and golden beaches. After this five-day walk, we're staying for two days in a valley on the Pacific Ocean. The main activity here will be surfing. I don't know how to surf, but instructors will teach us how to do it, and I'm really looking forward to this. Then the organizers are providing mountain bikes and we're going for long rides——about 30 miles a day, around one of Hawaii's volcanoes. And on one day we're meeting a local Hawaiian family and helping them to plant fruit trees on their farm. After that, we're sailing for three days along the coast, and they say we'll have a chance to swim with dolphins and sea turtles! This sounds fantastic. Finally, we're going out for three days in sea kayaks—we're visiting sea caves and we'll be swimming and diving too. Every night for the three weeks, we're camping in tents, usually on the beach. This isn't a holiday for everyone! They say you have to be fit, and of course you have to know how to swim and ride a bike. But I think it's going to be a fantastic experience. 【词海拾贝】 1．adventure /ədˈventʃə(r)/　 n．冒险 2．surf /sɜːf/ v．冲浪 3．volcano /vɒlˈkeɪnəʊ/ n．火山 4．fantastic /fænˈtæstɪk/ adj.异想天开的；极好的 5．kayak /ˈkaɪæk/ n．小艇 Period 1　Reading and Thinking (Ⅰ)　语篇研读课 素养目标 1．Learn something about the journey across Canada. 2．Read the passage and try to understand the main idea and details of the passage. 3．Learn to write an email about a journey. 4．Learn about a journey through Jack London's literature.
