[对应学生用书P135] Section Ⅰ Starting out & Understanding ideas [对应学生用书P135] Longji Rice Terraces Imagine① mountains [1]wrapped in silver water, [2]shining in the spring sun.[3]Summer sees the mountains turn bright green with growing rice. During autumn, these same mountains are gold, and in winter they are covered in sheets② of white frost③.These are the colours of the Longji Rice Terraces. [1]此处为过去分词短语作后置定语，修饰mountains。 [2]此处为现在分词短语作伴随状语。 [3]本句中Summer为无生命名词作主语。 These terraces were built by the local Zhuang and Yao people, [4]to whom Guangxi is home．Starting in the Yuan Dynasty④， work on the terraces took hundreds of years, until its completion⑤ in the early Qing Dynasty.[5]Reaching as far as the eye can see, these terraces cover tall mountains, often from the bottom to the very top. [4]此处为“介词＋关系代词”引导的非限制性定语从句，修饰the local Zhuang and Yao people。 [5]此处为现在分词短语作方式状语。其中“as far as the eye can see”为“as...as sb/sth can/could...”结构。 So why did these people go to so much trouble to turn⑥ the entire mountains into terraces? Firstly, there are few large, flat areas of land in the region⑦.Building the terraces therefore⑧ meant that they could increase the areas in which they could grow rice.Secondly, [6]although the region has plenty of rain, the mountains are steep⑨ and the soil⑩ is shallow⑪.The flat terraces catch⑫ the rainwater and prevent⑬ the soil from being washed away. [6]此处为although引导的让步状语从句。 But perhaps what is most significant⑭ is the way in which people have worked in harmony⑮ with nature to make these terraces and grow rice.The terraces are cleverly designed⑯， with hundreds of waterways⑰ that connect with each other.During the rainy season, [7]it is along these waterways that rainwater moves down the mountains and into the terraces．The sun heats⑱ the water and turns it into vapour⑲.This forms clouds from which rain falls down onto the mountain terraces once again.These terraces also provide a perfect environment for birds and fish, some of which feed on⑳ insects that can harm㉑ the rice crops㉒. [7]本句为强调句型，强调的是along these waterways。 Although modern technology could help produce more crops, these terraces still mean a lot to the local people for whom traditions㉓ hold much value.This knowledge is passed down through families, which means that new generations㉔ continue to use ancient methods of agriculture㉕ to maintain the terraces.Today, the Longji Rice Terraces attract㉖ thousands of visitors who come to admire㉗ this great wonder created by people and nature working together. ①imagine v.想象；设想 imagination n.想象力；想象 imaginary adj.想象中的；幻想的；虚构的 ②sheet n.(冰或水等的)一大片 ③frost n.霜；严寒天气；霜冻 ④dynasty n.朝代 the Yuan Dynasty元朝 the Qing Dynasty清朝 ⑤completion n.完成，结束 complete v.完成；结束 adj.完全的，彻底的 completely adv.完全地；全部地；彻底地 ⑥go to so much/the trouble to do sth/of doing sth 费尽周折做某事，不辞辛苦做某事 ⑦region n.地区，区域 ⑧therefore adv.因此，由此 ⑨steep adj.陡的，陡峭的 ⑩soil n.土壤 ⑪shallow adj.浅的；肤浅的，浅薄的 ⑫catch v.[熟词生义] 接(落下的液体) ⑬prevent v.阻挡，防止 ⑭significant adj.重要的；影响深远的 ⑮harmony n.融洽相处，和谐 in harmony with与……和谐相处/协调一致 harmonious adj.(关系)友好和睦的，和谐的；协调的 ⑯design v.设计；制订 n.设计；布局；安排 ⑰waterway n.水路；航道 ⑱heat v.加热；变热；(使)变暖 n.热；温度；炎热天气 ⑲vapour n.蒸气 ⑳feed on (动物)以……为食 ㉑harm v.伤害，损害 n. [U] 伤害，损害 ㉒crop n.庄稼，作物(常用复数形式) ㉓tradition n.传统，传统的信仰(或风俗) traditional adj.传统的，习俗的，惯例的 ㉔generation n.一代人 ㉕agriculture n.农业 agricultural adj.(与)农业(有关)的 ㉖attract v.吸引，引起……的兴趣 ㉗admire v.欣赏；观赏；钦佩，仰慕 龙脊水稻梯田 想象一下：群山被银白色的水环绕，在春光下闪耀。夏天，随着水稻的生长，群山变得翠绿。秋天的时候，同样的这些山又变成了金色；冬天，它们又被覆盖在层层白霜之下。这些都是龙脊水稻梯田的颜色。 这些梯田是由当地的壮族和瑶族人民开辟的，广西就是他们的故乡。梯田的开辟花费了数百年，从元朝开始，直到清朝初期才得以完成。极目远眺，这些梯田通常从山脚下一直延伸到山顶，覆盖座座高山。 那么，这些人为什么要费尽周折地把群山变成梯田呢？首先，这个地区几乎没有大片平地。因此，建造梯田意味着他们能够增加他们可以种植水稻的面积。其次，尽管该地区雨水充沛，但山势陡峭，土壤很薄。平坦的梯田可以收集雨水，防止土壤被冲走。 但也许最有意义的是人们用与自然和谐相处的方式建造这些梯田，种植水稻。梯田设计巧妙，数百条水道相互连接。在雨季，雨水就是沿着这些水道顺着山脉流入梯田的。太阳把水加热并把它变成了水蒸气，这就形成了云，雨又从云中落下，落到山上的梯田里。这些梯田也为鸟类和鱼类提供了一个完美的环境，它们中的一些以伤害水稻作物的昆虫为食。 虽然现代技术可以帮助生产更多的农作物，但这些梯田对当地人来说仍旧意义重大，他们是把传统看得很重的人。这一知识通过家族传承下来，这意味着新生的一代代人继续使用农耕古法来维持梯田。今天，龙脊水稻梯田吸引着成千上万的游客来欣赏这由人类和自然共同创造的伟大奇迹。 [对应学生用书P137] Ⅰ.重点词汇 核心单词 1．wrap v.包，裹 2．sheet n.(冰或水等的)一大片 3．frost n.霜 4．dynasty n.朝代 5．region n.地区，区域 6．therefore adv.因此，由此 7．soil n.土壤 8．shallow adj.浅的 9．prevent v.阻挡，防止 10．design v.设计 11．crop n.庄稼，作物 拓展词汇 1．completion n.完成；结束→complete adj.完全的；彻底的 v.完成；结束 2．harmony n.融洽相处；和谐→harmonious adj.(关系)友好和睦的；和谐的；协调的 3．harm v.伤害；损害→harmful adj.有害的→harmless adj.无害的 4．agriculture n.农业→agricultural adj.(与)农业(有关)的 Ⅱ.重点短语 1．be covered in被……覆盖 2．be home to是……的所在地；是……的家园 3．from bottom to top 从底部到顶部 4．go to the trouble to do 费尽周折做某事；不辞辛苦做某事 5．turn...into．..把……变成…… 6．plenty of大量的 7．prevent...from．..阻止…… 8．wash away 冲掉，冲走 9．in harmony with与……和谐相处 10．provide...for．..为……提供…… 11．pass down流传；使世代相传 Ⅲ.重点句型 1．无生命名词作主语 Summer sees the mountains turn bright green (群山变得翠绿) with growing rice. 2．the way (＋in which/that)＋定语从句 But perhaps what is most significant is the way in which people have worked (人们工作的方式) in harmony with nature to make these terraces and grow rice.
