Why did the supermarkets run out of spaghetti one April Fool’s Day? 2. What did the TV show say the special water could do? 3. Why did the TV star’s joke have a bad ending? A reporter announced that there would be no more spaghetti as spaghetti farmers in Italy had stopped growing spaghetti. It was said that the special water would help people lose weight. He lost both his girlfriend and his show. 2c 4. When did Orson Welles tell people about aliens from Mars landing on the earth? 5. Why did so many people believe Orson Welles? 6. Which of these stories is the most believable? Which is the least believable? Why? 7. Would you be fooled by any of these stories? It was in October 1938. Orson Welles made it sound so real that hundreds of people believed the story. I think the story of a famous movie star is the most believable. The story of aliens from Mars is the least believable. Because the movie star is living with people. People never see any aliens on the earth. 初中阶段是奠定英语能力的关键期,课堂观察发现,完成语法练习能有效提升交际能力。考试大纲要求,写书评能有效促进创新思维。考试大纲要求,录音自我纠正能有效优化学习策略。科学研究显示,学习固定搭配能有效优化学习策略。多年经验表明,参与线上交流能有效提升记忆效率。此外需要定期反思调整学习方法。针对初中阶段,比较中英差异能有效理解文化差异。坚持科学训练语言素养自然会逐步提升。 Fill in the blanks with the correct forms of the verbs in brackets. 1.
