We began buying seeds, digging up the ground and watering the plants. In a couple of months, we had a harvest! “Let‘s have a party tonight to celebrate,” Mother suggested. She cooked the peanuts in a few different ways and told us to go to the garden for the celebration. “Who can tell me what peanuts are good for?” Father asked. “They’re delicious to eat,” my sister took the lead. “They‘re good for making oil,” my brother followed. “They’re cheap,” I said. “Almost everyone can afford to buy peanuts and most people like eating them.” “Peanuts are really useful,” Father said. “But unlike apples and peaches that show their fruits in the air and attract people with their beautiful colours, the peanut plant hides its fruits in the earth. Until you dig it out, you can‘t tell by looking at its thin stem whether it bears fruit or not.” “That’s true,” we all said. Mother nodded too. “Trying to be like the peanut is a good idea.” Father went on, “It‘s useful, though not very attractive.” “Do you mean,” I asked, “compared with being useful, looking for attention and praise from others is not that important?” “Yes,” Father said. “This is what I mean. And this is what I expect of you.” We stayed up late that night and ate all the peanuts Mother had cooked for us. But Father’s words remain clear in my memory to this day. 在我们家后面，有一小片未用的土地。“让它那样荒废着太可惜了，”妈妈说。“既然你们都爱吃花生，就用它做块花生地吧。”我们兄弟姐妹都很兴奋。我们开始买种子、翻土、浇水。几个月后，我们收获了！ “今晚我们开个派对庆祝一下吧，”妈妈建议道。她用几种不同的方式煮了花生，并告诉我们去花园庆祝。 “谁能告诉我花生有什么好处？”父亲问。 “很好吃，”姐姐抢先说。 “可以榨油，”哥哥接着说。 “很便宜，”我说，“几乎每个人都买得起花生，而且大多数人都喜欢吃。” “花生确实很有用，”父亲说。“但是，不像苹果和桃子那样把果实高高挂在枝上，用美丽的颜色吸引人，花生却把果实埋在地里。你必须把它挖出来，光看它细细的茎是看不出它有没有结果的。” “确实如此，”我们都点头。妈妈也点了点头。“努力像花生一样是个好主意。”父亲继续说，“它很有用，虽然不太引人注目。” “您的意思是，”我问，“与有用相比，寻求别人的关注和赞美没那么重要吗？” “是的，”父亲说，“这就是我的意思。这也是我对你们的期望。” 那天晚上我们熬夜到很晚，吃光了妈妈为我们做的所有花生。但父亲的话至今仍清晰地留在我的记忆中。 三．课内知识解析 1.unused /ʌnˈjuːzd/ adj. 未用过的 词性转换：use v. / n. 使用 → unused adj. 未用过的（前缀un-表否定） 易混辨析：unused（未用过的）vs useless（无用的） 短语搭配 unused books 未用过的书 我有一些未用过的书，可以送给你。I have some unused books that I can give you. unused space 未利用的空间 我们应该充分利用教室里未利用的空间。We should make good use of the unused space in the classroom. 拓展词汇 use v. / n. 使用；useful adj. 有用的；useless adj. 无用的；user n. 用户 作文质句 We should make good use of unused things to save resources and protect the environment.（我们应该充分利用闲置物品，节约资源，保护环境。） 2. pity /ˈpɪti/ n. 遗憾 短语搭配 What a pity! 真遗憾！ 真遗憾！你错过了这场精彩的音乐会。What a pity!

Her childhood was a happy and joyful poem. She was born into a well-off family in Beijing. By 15, she could write great poems. She graduated from Beijing Normal University with the highest score for her year in 1945. However, her midlife was a poem of sadness and difficulties. She and her daughter lost their house after her husband was thrown into prison in Taiwan. And she had to work hard to support the family by teaching poetry. Several years later, she moved to Canada with her family. Then she got another blow in 1976 when her eldest daughter and son-in-law both lost their lives in a traffic accident. When living abroad, Ye missed the Chinese mainland very much. So she gave up all her achievements in Canada and came back to China in 1979. Then she taught poetry at Nankai University. This period of Ye’s life was a poem that was filled with flowers and honor. But Ye herself doesn’t care much about it. She thinks it is her mission (使命) in life to pass down classical Chinese poems to the young since they are so beautiful and valuable. She even gave away all her collections of books and paintings along with personal savings (存款) to Nankai University. Although life gives Ye lots of difficulties, she repays it with the beauty of poetry. Ye Jiaying shared Chinese poetry not only in China but also abroad. She gave lectures at famous universities like Harvard University in the United States and the University of British Columbia in Canada. In 1991, she was honored as a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada for her work in literature.

Time 22 (go) by and my love for this beautiful animal grew, as I did also. Finally at the beginning of my senior high school, my parents decided to move from the suburbs to the country, where we would have much space. My dream had finally come true. My parents asked me to go with them to pick out 23 Labrador puppy. When we got to the farm, there were only five puppies left. I decided to pick each one up 24 (get) a closer look. And besides, who could refuse to pick up lovely puppies? They all looked the same to me. After I picked up the first four, I thought it would be a hard 25 (decide). All the dogs seemed to have the same lazy state, bored expression. The last one I picked up was the 26 (ugly) of all. One of the reasons I picked him up last was because I had a bit of trouble 27 (try) to catch him. The puppy’s owner told me he didn’t think I wanted that one, because it was the weakest. As I examined him, I looked right into 28 (he) eyes, bringing him close to my face. Weak or not? I knew this was the one I wanted, because he licked my face. That little show of love was all I needed 29 I knew that this was my dog. In our life, the most beautiful thing is always hard to get close to. Only the proper choice belongs 30 your heart.

Everything around me is so beautiful 33 it makes me happy. We each have long lives. We just count them 34 (different).” Without saying more words, it then flew off 35 (enjoy) the rest of the life. The old oak repeated this action every day that summer, but it always got 36 same answer. Soon, winter came, and the tree went to sleep. On Christmas, it had a dream. In the dream, the tree lived 37 (it) life again. It experienced every single moment happily. The oak grew bigger and taller until it could see the 38 (star) in the sky. Then, it felt a pull, and its roots were free. It was such a wonderful feeling. 39 something else was happening in the real world. There was a terrible storm. The wind was too strong.

We began buying seeds, digging up the ground and watering the plants. In a couple of months, we had a harvest! “Let‘s have a party tonight to celebrate,” Mother suggested. She cooked the peanuts in a few different ways and told us to go to the garden for the celebration. “Who can tell me what peanuts are good for?” Father asked. “They’re delicious to eat,” my sister took the lead. “They‘re good for making oil,” my brother followed. “They’re cheap,” I said. “Almost everyone can afford to buy peanuts and most people like eating them.” “Peanuts are really useful,” Father said. “But unlike apples and peaches that show their fruits in the air and attract people with their beautiful colours, the peanut plant hides its fruits in the earth. Until you dig it out, you can‘t tell by looking at its thin stem whether it bears fruit or not.” “That’s true,” we all said. Mother nodded too. “Trying to be like the peanut is a good idea.” Father went on, “It‘s useful, though not very attractive.” “Do you mean,” I asked, “compared with being useful, looking for attention and praise from others is not that important?” “Yes,” Father said. “This is what I mean. And this is what I expect of you.” We stayed up late that night and ate all the peanuts Mother had cooked for us. But Father’s words remain clear in my memory to this day. 在我们家后面，有一小片未用的土地。“让它那样荒废着太可惜了，”妈妈说。“既然你们都爱吃花生，就用它做块花生地吧。”我们兄弟姐妹都很兴奋。我们开始买种子、翻土、浇水。几个月后，我们收获了！ “今晚我们开个派对庆祝一下吧，”妈妈建议道。她用几种不同的方式煮了花生，并告诉我们去花园庆祝。 “谁能告诉我花生有什么好处？”父亲问。 “很好吃，”姐姐抢先说。 “可以榨油，”哥哥接着说。 “很便宜，”我说，“几乎每个人都买得起花生，而且大多数人都喜欢吃。” “花生确实很有用，”父亲说。“但是，不像苹果和桃子那样把果实高高挂在枝上，用美丽的颜色吸引人，花生却把果实埋在地里。你必须把它挖出来，光看它细细的茎是看不出它有没有结果的。” “确实如此，”我们都点头。妈妈也点了点头。“努力像花生一样是个好主意。”父亲继续说，“它很有用，虽然不太引人注目。” “您的意思是，”我问，“与有用相比，寻求别人的关注和赞美没那么重要吗？” “是的，”父亲说，“这就是我的意思。这也是我对你们的期望。” 那天晚上我们熬夜到很晚，吃光了妈妈为我们做的所有花生。但父亲的话至今仍清晰地留在我的记忆中。 三．课内知识解析 1.unused /ʌnˈjuːzd/ adj. 未用过的 词性转换：use v. / n. 使用 → unused adj. 未用过的（前缀un-表否定） 易混辨析：unused（未用过的）vs useless（无用的） 短语搭配 unused books 未用过的书 我有一些未用过的书，可以送给你。I have some unused books that I can give you. unused space 未利用的空间 我们应该充分利用教室里未利用的空间。We should make good use of the unused space in the classroom. 拓展词汇 use v. / n. 使用；useful adj. 有用的；useless adj. 无用的；user n. 用户 作文质句 We should make good use of unused things to save resources and protect the environment.（我们应该充分利用闲置物品，节约资源，保护环境。） 2. pity /ˈpɪti/ n. 遗憾 短语搭配 What a pity! 真遗憾！ 真遗憾！你错过了这场精彩的音乐会。What a pity!

Dunhuang caves house about 45,000 square metres of wall paintings and over 2,000 painted sculptures. Sadly, these treasures were damaged due to natural causes over thousands of years and overtourism in the last century. In the late 1980s, Fan came up with the idea of digitalizing the caves. She led her team to create the “Digital Dunhuang” website in 2016 after more than 30 years of hard work. Thanks to the continued efforts from Fan and her team, the world gets to enjoy this wonder. 任何对敦煌感兴趣的人很可能都听说过樊锦诗。樊锦诗被许多人称为“敦煌的女儿”，因为她将一生中的大部分时间奉献给了研究和保护古老的敦煌石窟。 敦煌石窟拥有约4.5万平方米的壁画和2000多尊彩塑。可惜的是，由于数千年的自然原因和上个世纪的过度旅游，这些珍宝遭到了破坏。 20世纪80年代末，樊锦诗提出了将石窟数字化的想法。经过30多年的努力，她带领团队于2016年创建了“数字敦煌”网站。得益于樊锦诗和她团队的不懈努力，全世界都能欣赏到这一奇迹。 三．单词学习2 1.condition /kənˈdɪʃn/n. 状态，状况 2.*contribute /kənˈtrɪbjuːt/vi. & vt. 贡献，增进，促成 3.judge /dʒʌdʒ/vt. & vi. 判断，认为　vt. 审判 4.*amazed /əˈmeɪzd/adj. 大为惊奇 5.make up one’s mind 下定决心 四．课文学习2 Integration D2: I think my father has a very meaningful life.
