Warming Up In pairs discuss these questions: 1 What is a navigator? 2 What is the difference between a navigator and an explorer? A navigator explores new routes across the sea. A navigator explores the sea; an explorer discovers new places on land.
6
Navigator sea nautical instruments find new islands or continents Navigator is someone who finds the position and plots the course of a ship, an aircraft, a car, etc, using maps and instruments.
7
Explorer land use of compass and landmarks find new places within an already identified island or continent Explorer is someone who travels into or through a place in order to learn about it. Very often navigators are also explorers.
8
3 Look at these famous people. Are they
navigators or explorers? What do you know about them?
9
Zheng He, in the year between
1405 and 1433, seven large treasure fleets sailed westwards on voyages of trade and exploration. Under the command of Zheng He, the fleets set sail from the South China Sea across the Indian Ocean to the Red Sea, and then traveled further south, discovering the eastern coast of Africa. He renewed relations with the Kingdoms of the East African.
10
he decided to travel together with his father.
Marco Polo Marco Polo was born in Venice in He was the most famous foreigner to visit Asia during the Middle Ages. When Marco Polo was still very young, he decided to travel together with his father. It took them more than three years to travel to China. After nearly seventeen years’ travel in the East, Marco and his father wanted to return home.
11
James Cook ( ) was the greatest Britain navigator. Cook joined the Royal Navy in In 1768 he was promoted and sent to the Pacific where he surveyed Tahiti, New Zealand, and Australia. On his famous 2nd expedition ( ) he explored Antarctica. In 1776 in his third and final voyage, he explored the West coast of North America and discovered the Hawaiian Islands.
12
Pre-reading Look at the pictures on page 11. Then answer the questions. 1 How do you think seamen found their way before modern accurate methods of navigation were invented? Kept close to the shore, used nature such as the sun, wind, birds, tide, etc, to help them, and used some of the instruments including a compass, astrolabe, etc.
13
2 Can you identify these early navigational instruments seamen used and explain how they are used?
1 _________________________ 2 _________ 3 _________ 4 ________________________ compass (in ancient China) astrolabe sextant sea / nautical / marine chart
14
4 Which ones do you think are still used
today? Sea charts are still used today.
15
Reading Now read about what navigation was like before modern instruments were used. SAILING THE OCEANS
16
Comprehending 1 Read the passage and answer the following questions. 1 What is the use of a bearing circle, astrolabe, quadrant or sextant? ( ) What is the use of a compass? ( ) A to set the course of the ship B to measure the position of the ship C to measure the speed of the ship D to tell the time B A
17
Why are speed and time important
in working out the longitude of a ship? Speed and time are important in finding out the longitude of a ship because the earth moves fifteen degrees westwards every hour. If you know your direction, speed and time, you can work out the approximate longitude or change in your position in relation to the stars.
18
3 Why is the position of the sun and various
stars useful for working out latitude? The position of the sun and stars are useful for working out latitude because they are fixed points in the sky and their movements in relation to the earth are already known. So they can be used to measure a ship's position.
19
2 Suppose you were a sea captain aiming
to sail round Africa. Discuss in groups: 1 What skills would you seek in your sailors? The sailors would need to be excellent navigators, able to deal with both hot and cold weather, experienced in sailing through very bad weather and able to co-operate in a team.
20
What problems would you anticipate for this journey?
I would anticipate very hot weather (around the equator), cold weather (around the Cape of Good Hope) very stormy seas (around the Cape), problems with food and water (the water may be polluted and lack of food, unless helped by local natives), etc.
21
SAILING THE OCEANS Using nature Using navigational instruments
Keeping alongside coastline Using nature Using celestial bodies Using the wildlife SAILING THE OCEANS Using the weather Using the sea Finding longitude(经度) Using navigational instruments Finding latitude(纬度)
22
3 What would you do if you came across the following problems during your voyage? Read the chart below and fill in your plans of action to deal with them. What would you do if: Plan of action You were far from land and a storm arose. wait till the storm is over, and then find your new position and return to your original course
23
You knew your latitude but didn't know your longitude.
You were blown off-course. use knots(节) to find your speed and work out your approximate longitude use the compass and the astrolabe, quadrant or sextant to find out your position, return to your former course
24
You were offshore but you needed more food and water.
You wanted to keep a straight course. follow nesting birds to shore; look for special cloud formations or fog over streams to find land use a compass
25
You were lost with no land in sight.
measure your position using the sun or stars; look for sea birds, cloud formations, fog or seaweed to show that land is nearby
26
4 Read the passage again and use the information to analyse the navigational skills. Write the answers in your own words. Using nature To find the ship’s position at sea a sailor used the North Star and the sun.
27

30
Quadrant: _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ . a more precise form of the astrolabe, to measure how high stars are above the horizon(地平线), and compare that measurement with previous measurements (using the ship as one of the fixed points to find its position)

Unit 2 Grammar Predicate
45
谓语表述主语的行为动作或所处的状态。谓语的中心词是限定动词,有人称、数的变化。谓语大体上可以分为两类:简单谓语和复合谓语。
46
简单谓语 凡是由一个动词或短语动词构成,不管是 什么时态、语态、语气,都是简单谓语。
The plane takes off at 8 but this morning it may be delayed by the thick fog. I have tried this way three times and failed three times. 飞机八点起飞,但今天早晨可能会被大 雾耽搁。 我用这种方法试了三次,失败了三次。
47
复合谓语 复合谓语一般由两部分构成:一是带不 定式的复合谓语(由情态动词或某些动词 加不定式结构);一是带表语的复合谓语
(由系动词或少数其他动词加表语构成)。 I would like to invite all my friends to the get-together. 我想邀请我所有的朋友去参加聚会。
48
英语中的主谓一致主要遵循三个原则: 意义一致原则、语法一致原则和邻近原则。这三个原则常常发生矛盾,但当发生冲突时,意义一致原则为优先考虑的原则。
49
语法一致原则 主语和谓语通常是从语法形式上取得一致,即主语是单数形式,谓语动词也采取单数形式;主语是复数形式,谓语动词也采取复数形式。

55
(根据靠近谓语的主语his parents而定)不是杰克而是他父母应为这个 家庭事故受到责备。
邻近一致原则 邻近一致原则是指谓语动词的变化是 以靠近谓语动词的主语部分而定。 Not Jack but his parents are to blame for the home accident. (根据靠近谓语的主语his parents而定)不是杰克而是他父母应为这个 家庭事故受到责备。
56
Either you or I ____ mad. (be)
3. 由not only…but also…, either…or…, neither…nor…, …or… 等连接的并列主语,谓动通常依据就近原则。 Either you or I ____ mad. (be) Neither I or you ____ passed the exam. (have) am have
57
4.当主语由 as well as, along with,
together with, rather than, no less than, but, except, in addition to, like, including 等词连接时,其谓动的单复数形式通常由这些词语前的名词来决定。 ① An iron and steel works, with some satellite factories, ____ to be built here. (be) ② The professor, together with many of his students, ____ entering the meeting hall.(be) is is

Revising useful structures
1 Read the information below and learn more about Captain Cook. Then underline the predicates in the sentences. 1 James Cook was a great English navigator and Pacific Ocean expedition leader.
84
He had not only an outstanding ability in navigation and exploration, but also a real concern for sailors' health. He carried out compulsory dietary reforms that were copied by many other ship captains. 3 He had led three great Pacific voyages during his life.
85
4 In his first Pacific voyage in 1769, James Cook rounded Cape Horn, then spent six months charting New Zealand, and finally explored and claimed possession of eastern Australia. 5 In 1772, Captain Cook set sail to look for a "theorized great southern continent". Although they could not manage to reach the Antarctic owing to the ice, he predicted that if it did exist, it would have to be a wasteland.
86
6 In 1776, Captain Cook started his third Pacific voyage, searching for the Northwest Passage from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic Ocean. Unfortunately, he was killed in a dispute with Hawaiian natives and his men's attempt at the Northwest Passage was unsuccessful. However, this voyage is still recognized as especially significant in the history of the discovery of the west coast of North America.
