[00:45.09]is telling Wang Xin
[00:47.12]about what people thought the future would be like.
[00:50.29]Listen and answer the question.
[00:53.16]Wang Xin:Hello,Mrs He.
[00:55.90]What are you reading?
[00:57.94]Mrs He:Oh,hello,Wang Xin.
[01:00.08]I'm reading a wonderful magazine.
[01:02.85]It's almost 50 years old
[01:05.59]and it has a really interesting report about the future.
[01:09.56]They asked people what life would be like in 2000.
[01:13.82]Did they ask whether we would live on the moon and things like that?
[01:18.37]Mrs He:Well,yes,and other more common things.
[01:22.21]It says here that people thought that we would live in glass houses by now.
[01:26.47]Wang Xin:Glass houses?
[01:29.21]I've never seen any!
[01:31.17]They also thought that medicine would be so good
[01:34.33]that people would never get sick.
[01:37.07]Wrong again!Did they guess we would have spaceships?
[01:40.73]Yes,and they dreamed that we would have holidays in space
[01:44.88]and live on other planets.
[01:47.76]Wang Xin:Were they right about anything?
[01:51.60]Yes.They guessed that radio would be important
[01:56.56]and that trains would be faster and more comfortable.
[02:00.40]However,they didn't know that everyone would watch so much TV
[02:05.15]or that so many people would travel by plane.
[02:08.91]Wang Xin:Mrs He,this is very interesting.
[02:13.17]Someone should ask people what they think life will be like in 2050.
[02:18.03]Mrs He:I agree with you.
[02:20.38]I was going to do that but I'm too busy.
[02:23.44]Perhaps,you could do it instead.

[03:24.56]She was interested in biology,physics and chemistry.
[03:29.11]She hoped to work in space one day.
[03:32.06]'I wonder if I will discover something important when I'm older?'
[03:36.22]she often asked herself.
[03:38.67]Every evening,
[03:40.63]Kelly went out with her dog to look at the stars.
[03:44.39]One night,she saw a strange,
[03:46.66]coloured light moving across the sky.
[03:49.51]'It can't be a star,'she thought.'
[03:52.15]It's too bright.
[03:54.11]It must be a spaceship.
[03:56.67]I knew a spaceship would visit Earth one day!"
[04:00.33]She walked quickly towards the light.
[04:04.09]The space people must want to talk to me.
[04:08.14]They can't come from so far away
[04:10.41]and not want to somebody!
[04:12.97]I wonder whether they can speak our language or not.
[04:16.52]Will I able to understand them?
[04:19.68]Are they lost?If they need to repair their spaceship,
[04:23.44]I might be useful to them.'
[04:26.00]The spaceship landed a few metres in front of Kelly
[04:30.45]and the door slowly opened.
[04:33.08]Suddenly,Kelkly's dog rushed towards the spaceship.
[04:36.92]Kelly cried,'This can't be true!I must be dreaming.'
[04:40.87]Two giant dogs were standing at the door of the spaceship.
[04:45.23]The visitors from space were dogs!
[04:48.78]They said a few words to Kelly's dog.
[04:52.15]Kelly's dog looked at Kelly
[04:54.61]and then turned and ran into the spaceship.
[04:57.95]In a moment,the spaceship hnd gone.

[05:18.56]and Yingtian talking about a film
[05:21.44]and say if the sentences
[05:23.40]are ture (T) or false (F).
[05:25.96]Yingtian:What a great film!
[05:29.61]That scientist must have known a lot about chemistry.
[05:33.48]Meiling:That's true,
[05:35.33]but he must have known a lot about biology,too,don't you think?
[05:39.88]Yingtian:I guess so.
[05:42.05]I thought the bicycle accident was the best part,
[05:45.39]didn't you?
[05:47.35]Meiling:Did you really?I'm surprised.
[05:50.82]Did you know what was going to happen to the fish?

[05:55.94]Meiling:Didn't you?I guessed it would grow larger.
[05:59.89]Didn't you?I guessed it would grow larger.
[06:03.73]Yingtian:Well,it was just a film,
[06:06.79]but it taught me something about science.
[06:09.55]Meiling:I agree.Just think,
[06:12.30]we might have giant plants and animals on Earth one day.
[06:16.37]Yingtian:I can't agree with you about the that.
[06:19.85]Giants only live in stories.
[06:22.80]Meiling:YINGTIAN!WATCH OUT!
[06:25.72]A GIANT BIRD IS GOING TO LAND ON YOU!

[07:15.72]1.Read the story about a radio programme
[07:21.18]and circle the correct words.
[07:23.92]In 1879,
[07:26.98]H.G.Wells wrote a science fiction book
[07:29.85]about spaceships coming to Earth.
[07:32.49]The book (was/is) still very popular.
[07:35.44]It is called The War of the Worlds.
[07:39.21]On 30 October,1938,
[07:42.86]a man named Orson Welles (decided/will decide)
[07:45.01]that he would make a radio programme from the book.
[07:49.16]He decided that the programme (will/would)
[07:51.72]be different from the book in one important way:
[07:55.27]the actors would talk like reporters
[07:58.22]so that the listeners would think
[08:01.07]that it (was/will be) a news report.
[08:03.84]In the programme,
[08:05.98]the actors said that space people from the planet Mars
[08:09.51](will/were going to) fight a war with the people on Earth.
[08:12.98]When the listeners heard this
[08:15.54]they became very afraid.
[08:18.00]They thought that the world (would/had) end.
[08:20.87]The listeners were told that giant things like snakes
[08:24.53]were (going/coming) out of spaceships and killing people.
[08:27.87]They were told that guns couldn't hurt these things.
[08:32.10]Many listeners left their homes and tried to hide.
[08:35.87]Orson welles waited 40 minutes
[08:39.52]before he told the listeners that the programme
[08:42.16]was not really a news report.
[08:44.80]He (had hoped/hopes) they would guess
[08:46.79]that the programme was a joke.
[08:48.64]However,many listeners had really believed
[08:52.30]that the space people (are/were) going to kill them.
[08:54.94]They were very angry.
[08:57.39]They should have known.
[08:59.53]30 October is the day before a famous holiday
[09:03.37]in the United States.
[09:05.65]On this holiday,people play jokes on other people
[09:09.09]and try to make them afraid.
[09:11.97]The holiday is Halloween.
[09:14.42]3.Listen to Zhenhui and Wang Xin
[09:19.99]talking about science fiction books
[09:22.76]and answer the questions.
[09:25.11]Hi,Wang Xin!Have you read this?
[09:29.65]Oh,The War of the Worlds by H.G.Wells.Yes,I have.
[09:34.93]Zhenhui:I think it's a great book.
[09:37.67]Wang Xin:I agree!
[09:39.74]Have you read any of his other science fiction books
[09:42.37]like The First Men in the Moon?
[09:44.93]Zhenhui:I've read The Invisible Man.
[09:47.39]My father thinks that's his best book.
[09:50.55]I can't agree with your father about that.
[09:53.82]My favourite is The Time Machine.
[09:56.56]Zhenhui:What's it about?
[09:58.52]WangXin:A scientist builds a time machine
[10:02.15]and travels to the future.
[10:04.11]He discovers lots of really interesting things.
[10:07.63]Hey,maybe you could try to invent a time machine!
[10:11.16]Zhenhui:No,I don't think so.
[10:13.33]I'm more interested in discovering new medicines.
[10:16.80]They will be more useful.
[10:19.36]WangXin:I don't agree.
[10:21.51]With a time machine,you can travel to the future
[10:24.27]and just buy new medicines.
[10:26.42]Zhenhui:That's true.
[10:28.27]But first I need to study for my chemistry exam. |
