made to work as a universal machine to solve any difficult mathematical problem. From
then on, I grew rapidly both in size and in brainpower. By the 1940s I had grown as large as
a room, and I wondered if I would grow any larger. However, this reality also worried my 15
designers. As time went by, I was made smaller. First as a PC (personal computer) and then
as a laptop, I have been used in offices and homes since the 1970s.
These changes only became possible as my memory improved. First it was stored in tubes,
then on transistors and later on very small chips. As a result I totally changed my shape. As I
have grown older I have also grown smaller. Over time my memory has developed so much 20
that, like an elephant, I never forget anything I have been told! And my memory became so
large that even I couldnt believe it! But I was always so lonely standing there by myself, until in
the early 1960s they gave me a family connected by a network. I was able to share my knowledge
with others through the World Wide Web.
Since the 1970s many new applications 25
have been found for me. I have become very
important in communication, finance and
trade. I have also been put into robots and used
to make mobile phones as well as help with
medical operations. I have even been put into 30
space rockets and sent to explore the Moon
and Mars. Anyhow, my goal is to provide humans
with a life of high quality. I am now truly filled

Unit 4 Wildlife protection

HOW DAISY LEARNED TO HELP WILDLIFE


Daisy had always longed to help endangered species
of wildlife. One day she woke up and found a flying
carpet by her bed. Where do you want to go? it
asked.
Daisy responded immediately. I d like to see some
endangered wildlife she said. Please take me to a
distant land where I can find the animal that gave fur
to make this sweater. At once the carpet flew away
and took her to Tibet. There Daisy saw an antelope
looking sad. It said, Were being killed for the wool
beneath our stomachs. Our fur is being used to make sweaters for people like you. As a result, we 10
are now an endangered species. At that Daisy cried, Im sorry I didnt know that. I wonder what
is being done to help you. Flying carpet, please show me a place where theres some wildlife
protection.
The flying carpet travelled so fast that next minute they were in Zimbabwe. Daisy turned around
and found that she was being watched by an elephant. Have you come to take my photo? it asked. 15
In relief Daisy burst into laughter. Dont laugh
said the elephant, We used to be an endangered
species. Farmers hunted us without mercy. They
said we destroyed their farms, and money from
tourists only went to the large tour companies. 20
So the government decided to help. They allowed
tourists to hunt only a certain number of animals
if they paid the farmers. Now the farmers are
happy and our numbers are increasing. So good
things are being done here to save local wildlife. 25

'3j Here is a problem which WWF has to deal with. Read the problem first.
i In Indonesia there is a wildlife park for endangered animals such as tigers, elephants^and rhinos. 1
It is very large and has some of the best farmland. Some poor farmers have moved into the park \ to
grow coffee. Although this is not allowed, the coffee is excellent quality and has sold very well. Now
20 per cent of the wildlife park is used in this way.
WWF is very concerned about it as this is a very important park for endangered animals.
However, they know that the farmers are very poor and need to have a secure income. What
should be done?

Imagine you work for WWF. Discuss in groups of four what you would
suggest.
Should the poor farmers move to another place? Can they be employed to work in the park
and not hurt the animals?
How can the animals be protected from more people coming into the park? What should be
done to punish people who do harm to the animals?
Prepare to share your solution with the whole class.

BIQ FENQ TO THE RESCUE


His friends and family call him Big Feng because he is very tall and played basketball as a young
man. But he is also big in a different way he fights hard to protect Chinas past. His real name is
Feng Jicai and he has written many novels about life in China. Several years ago, however, he put
down his pen for a while and began to protect the cultural relics in Tianjin, where he lives. Once
someone asked him why he no longer wrote. He replied that at the moment he felt protecting cultural
relics was more important.
Feng loves his hometown. He believes that old things must be given a place next to new things,
or people will soon forget their great past. He does not make speeches to get others to help him in his
projects. Instead he goes out and does what he can himself. If others follow him, so much the better.
One of his biggest projects was to protect the oldest street in Tianjin. Along that street some shops
had done business for seven hundred years. Although the city government rebuilt this street, they did
save its oldest building. Another project was more successful: he persuaded the city government to
buy some land in thecentre of the
city so it could not be sold for businesses. This area is very
important for the historyof Tianjin. It was here that the city was first built during the Song Dynasty.
Later many treasures were found here.
To Feng, digging down into the earth is like reading page
after
page of a book. Each dynasty found in the earth is like an
interesting story. Not long ago he and other writers and artists took
photos of the old parts of Tianjin. The photos were put into a book

him,
saying he would give it to his grandson who was not yet bom.

1 Is there any cultural relic worth protecting in your hometown? What is it? Write it down and
give a reason.
What do you think you can do to protect it?
Here are some suggestions. Discuss them in pairs and add your own idea.

Unit 1 Cultural relice

Look at the first picture. Do you know what building it is? It is very famous but
do you think it will become a cultural relic in the future?

Discuss in a small group what makes a cultural relic. Make a list of your ideas.
Look at the first picture again. Discuss whether your rules apply to this building.
Give your reasons why it may or may not become a cultural relic.
Do some research on other famous buildings, such as the Sydney Opera House or the Eiffel
Tower, etc.
Choose one of them that you think may become a cultural relic in the future and make a
poster showing the building, your rules and your reasons.
Have a class discussion to see if you all agree.

RITINC TASK
Now you want to inform people that this cultural relic is already in danger, so
write a letter to your schoolmates to encourage them to join you and protect
it. You can use the following outline as a guide.

THREE INSPlRmQ STORIES ABOUT THE OLYMPIC


QAMES
1

The kind Norwegian

There is a cross-country skiing race which is part of the Winter Olympics.


In
2006 a Canadian skier, Sara Renner, was taking part in the cross-country
final when her left pole broke. This was a serious problem as she needed
the pole to help her travel quickly through the deep snow. Immediately
Bjornar Hakensmoen, the coach of the Norwegian team, gave her another
pole. So Renner was able to get a silver medal. Hakensmoen said that he
had only behaved as any good sportsman should, but Sara said that
Hakensmoen had shown everybody the true meaning of sport.

2 The Special Olympic athlete


For athlete Eric Williams gold medals are nice, but good sportsmanship is more important. Eric has
a low mental ability but this does not stop him from taking a part in the Olympics. In 2005 Eric
competed in running races and the long jump. He
said, Ive been competing in the Special
Olympics
ever since I was at high school. Its really a good
experience. You get to meet different athletes and
volunteers and make all kinds of friends. John
Corbett, an organizer of the Special Olympics
said,
He always does his best and has a wonderful
time
in the process. He truly appreciates ( all the
people around him who are trying to help, and he
makes that appreciation known. Lets hope Eric
wins more medals in the next Special Olympics!
3 The stubborn African
In 1968 a Kenyan athlete Kip Keino competed in the 1,500 metres
running race. At that time he was very ill and in great pain.
Although
he had reached the standard for the final of the race he decided at
first not to take part. However, just before the race was going to start
he changed his mind. He ran from his room and arrived at the race
track a few minutes before the race was about to begin. Surprisingly,

THE SPORTING ROBOT


My name is Hua Fei and I am a sporting robot of the
23rd century. I am an expert at high flying exercises.
I
jump from spaceships and as I fall I turn, dive, circle
and dance until I softly land as close as I can to the
finishing line. Robot competitions in the 23rd century
are truly a popular sport. Fans from all over China
watch their handheld TVs when a competition comes
on. Last time I took part in the 78th Olympics on a
flying island above Brussels in the sky. I won the
silver
medal for my performance.
This year I had the honour to be chosen again. I wanted to meet robots from other countries and
explore ideas about our sport. However, my programmer fell ill the week before we were going to
leave. It was very painful for her and I felt very frightened. I no longer felt so confident that I would
win.
The day of the competition was rather cold for my legs and my special oil began to freeze. I
paused before I jumped from the starting place on a little spaceship but then I began my performance.
At the correct moment I tried to open my parachute but there was a problem. It only opened a little.
Instead of flying softly to earth I began to fall faster and faster so that I could not turn, dive, circle or
dance. My heart stopped beating as I landed heavily on a mountain covered with snow.
This is why I am writing to you from my hospital bed with two broken legs and a fragile head. I
did not win anything at the Olympics after all. I need the factory to build me two new legs and an

THE RETURN OF

THE MILU DEER

My name is Lin Hui. I like to tell stories about people who work together. What is even better is
when countries help each other and build a good friendship. An excellent example of this happened
when Britain and China worked together to bring the Milu deer back to China.
The Milu deer, a species with large horns
( used to be common in China long ago.
Like other deer they lived together and ate grass
and the soft parts of trees such as small
branches. Milu deer were often hunted for food
or sport in the past. The Ming and Qing
dynasties
did not protect them and many were killed. That
is how the Milu deer disappeared from China.
Luckily before all of them were killed, some
were taken to Britain to improve the
environment
of the beautiful park which belonged to the Duke of Bedford. He liked them so much that he took
them all the way from China to Britain. The Milu deer liked the cool, wet weather in England and
their number increased year by year. As a result, when in 1985 the government of China wanted to
reintroduce the Milu deer, the Duke of Bedford was happy to help. The first deer came back to China
to the Nanhaizi Milu Park 20 kilometres south of Beijing and the centre in Dafeng, Jiangsu Province.
The deer certainly seem happy to be back in China because their numbers have grown rapidly.
There are now so many of them that a new park has been opened for them in Hubei Province. At the
moment the Milu deer live in centres where they are being well protected and cared for. It is hoped
that one day there will be enough animals to let them live in the wild again. So Britain helped China
by bringing back an animal that had disappeared from its homeland. This is a good example of

to help

Millions of birds suffer for many reasons. Some die after oil spills. It is said
that 85% of the oil polluting the water comes from the cleaning of engines by
small personal boat owners. Others are hunted and killed every day. So it is
necessary to make people more aware of the importance of protecting birds.
In
pairs, discuss the followingquestions:
What else threatens birds besides oil
spills?
How can we help protect the birds?
How can we help people understand
the importance of protecting the environment so that birds
can live in peace?

Suppose you would like to attract more birds to come to your area. Study the
pictures on the next page carefully. Then write a short passage of about 120
words on how to design a place for watching birds. The plan that follows may
help you.

Decide on an area that can be turned into a bird watching place.
