必修二 Unit1

IN SEARCH OF THE AMBER ROOM 寻找琥珀屋

Frederick William Ⅰ ， the King of Prussia , could never have

imagined that his greatest gift to the Russian people would have such

an amazing history .

普鲁士国王腓特烈·威廉一世绝不可能想到他送给俄罗斯人民的厚礼会有这

样一段令人惊讶的历史。

This gift was the Amber Room , which was given this name because

several tons of amber were used to make it .

这件礼物就是琥珀屋，它之所以有这个名字，是因为造这间房子用了好几

吨的琥珀。

The amber which was selected had a beautiful yellow-brown colour

like honey .

选出来的琥珀色彩艳丽，呈现蜂蜜一样的黄褐色。

The design of the room was in the fancy style popular in those days

琥珀屋的设计采用了当时流行的别致的建筑式样。

It was also a treasure decorated with gold and jewels , which took

the country's best artists about ten years to make .

它也是用金银珠宝装饰起来的珍品。一批国家最优秀的艺术家用了大约十年

的时间才把它完成。

In fact , the room was not made to be a gift . 事实上，这个琥珀屋并

不是作为礼物来建造的。

It was designed for the palace of Frederick Ⅰ. 它是为腓特烈一世的宫

殿设计（制作）的。

However, the next King of Prussia , Frederick William Ⅰ, to whom

the amber room belonged, decided not to keep it.

然而，下一位普鲁士国王，腓特烈·威廉一世，这个琥珀屋的主人却决定不

要它了。

In 1716 he gave it to Peter the Great.

在 1716 年，他把琥珀屋送给了彼得大帝。

In return , the Czar sent him a troop of his best soldiers.

作为回赠，沙皇则送给他一队自己最好的士兵。

So the Amber Room became part of the Czar's winter palace in St

Petersburg.

这样，琥珀屋就成了沙皇在圣彼得堡冬宫的一部分。

About four metres long, the room served as a small reception hall

for important visitors .

这间琥珀屋长约四米，被用作招待重要来宾的小型会客室。

Later, Catherine Ⅱ had the Amber Room moved to a palace outside

St Petersburg where she spent her summers.

后来，叶卡捷琳娜二世派人把琥珀屋搬到圣彼得堡郊外她避暑的宫殿中。

She told her artists to add more details to it . 她叫她的工匠在原来设

计的基础上增添了更多精细的装饰。

In 1770 the room was completed the way she wanted .

1770 年，这间琥珀屋按照她的要求完成了。

Almost six hundred candles lit the room ,and its mirrors and

pictures shone like gold.

将近 600 支蜡烛照亮了这个房间，里面的镜子和图画就像金子一样闪闪发

光。

Sadly , although the Amber Room was considered one of the

wonders of the world , it is now missing .

可悲的是，尽管琥珀屋被认为是世界上的一大奇迹之一，可是现在它却消

失了。

In September 1941, the Nazi army was near St Petersburg .

1941 年 9 月，纳粹德国的军队逼近圣彼得堡。

This was a time when the two countries were at war .

这是在两国交战的时期。

Before the Nazis could get to the summer palace , the Russians

were able to remove some furniture and small art objects from the

Amber Room .

在纳粹分子到达夏宫之前，俄罗斯人只能把琥珀屋里的一些家具和小件艺

术饰品搬走。

However , some of the Nazis secretly stole the room itself .

可是琥珀屋本身却被一些纳粹分子偷偷地运走了。

In less than two days 100,000 pieces were put inside twenty-seven

wooden boxes .

在不到两天的时间里，10 万个部件装进了27 个木箱。

There is no doubt that the boxes were then put on a train for

Konigsberg, which was at that time a German city on the Baltic Sea .

毫无疑问，这些箱子后来被装上火车运往哥尼斯堡，它是当时德国在波罗

的海边的一个城市。

After that, what happened to the Amber Room remains a mystery .

从那以后，琥珀屋的去处便成了一个谜。

Recently, the Russians and Germans have built a new Amber Room

at the summer palace. By studying old photos of the former Amber

Room , they have made the new one look like the old one.

近来，俄罗斯人和德国人已经在夏宫建起了一个新的琥珀屋，通过研究琥

珀屋原来的照片，他们建造的新琥珀屋样子和旧的看起来非常像。

In 2003 it was ready for the people of St Petersburg when they

celebrated the 300th birthday of their city. 2003年，圣彼得堡人民就用它

来庆祝该市建成 300 周年。

2.必修二 Unit 1 A FACT OR AN OPINION? 事实还是看法？

What is a fact? Is it something that people believe? 什么是事实呢？

是不是人们所相信的就是事实呢？ No. A fact is anything that can be

proved. 不是。事实是可以证实的信息。For example, it can be proved that

China has more people than any other country in the world. This is a

fact. 举例来说，中国人口比世界上任何其他国家的人口都多，这是可以得到证

实的，这就是事实。

Then what is an opinion? 那么，什么是看法呢？An opinion is what

someone believes is true but has not been proved. 看法是人们相信是真实

的但是未经证实。 So an opinion is not good evidence in a trial. 因此在审判

中，看法不是强有力的证据。 For example, it is an opinion if you say “Cats

are better pets than dogs”. 举例来说，如果你说：“猫作为宠物比狗好。”

It may be true, but it is difficult to prove. 这就是看法，这个看法可能是正

确的，但是它难以被证实。Some people may not agree with this opinion

but they also cannot prove that they are right. 有些人可能不同意这种看法，

但是他们也不能证明他们是正确的。

In a trial, a judge must decide which eyewitnesses to believe and

which not to believe. 在审判中，法官必须断定哪些证人可以相信，哪些证人

不能相信。The judge does not consider what each eyewitness looks like

or where that person lives or works. 法官并不考虑证人的长相如何，也不考

虑这个人住在哪里，在哪儿工作。He/she only cares about whether the

eyewitness has given true information, which must be facts rather than

opinions. 他（她）关心的只是目击者是否提供了真实的信息，这些信息必须

是事实而不是个人观点或看法。 This kind of information is called evidence.

这种信息就叫做证据。

必修二 Unit 2 The Olympic Games

AN INTERVIEW 采访

Pausanias, who was a Greek writer about 2,000 years ago, has come on

a magical journey on March 18th 2007 to find out about the present-

day Olympic Games.

帕萨尼亚斯是大约 2000 年前的一位希腊作家，他于 2007 年 3 月 18 日作

了一次魔幻旅行，来打听当代奥林匹克运动会的情况。

He is now interviewing Li Yan, a volunteer for the 2008 Olympic

Games.

现在他正在采访一位 2008年奥林匹克运动会的志愿者李燕。

P: My name is Pausanias. I lived in what you call “Ancient Greece”

and I used to write about the Olympic Games a long time ago.

帕：我叫帕萨尼亚斯。我生活在你们所说的“古希腊”。我曾经写过很久以

前奥林匹克运动会的情况。

I’ve come to your time to find out about the present-day Olympic

Games because I know that in 2004 they were held in my homeland.

May I ask you some questions about the modern Olympics?

现在我来到你们这个时代，想了解有关当代奥运会的情况，因为我知道

2004年奥运会是在我的祖国举行的。我可以问你几个有关现代奥林匹克运动会

的问题吗？

L: Good heavens! Have you really come from so long ago? But of

course you can ask any questions you like. What would you like to

know?

李：天哪！你真的来自那么久远的年代？当然你可以问你想问的问题。你想

知道什么呢？

P: How often do you hold your Games?

帕：你们的奥运会多久举行一次？

L: Every four years. There are two main sets of Games-the Winter

and Summer Olympics, and both are held every four years on a regular

basis. The Winter Olympics are usually held two years before the

Summer Games.

李：每四年一次。运动会有两种：夏季奥运会和冬季奥运会。这两种运动会

都是四年举行一次。冬季奥运会总是在夏季奥运会的前两年举行。

Only athletes who have reached the agreed standard for their event

will be admitted as competitors. They may come from anywhere in the

world.

只有达到他们各自项目统一标准的运动员才会被接受参加奥运会。选手可以来自

全世界任何一个地方。

P: Winter Games? How can the runners enjoy competing in winter?

And what about the horses?

帕：冬季奥运会？冬天运动员怎么可能赛跑啊？又怎么可能赛马呢？

L: Oh no! There are no running races or horse riding events. Instead

there are competitions like skiing and ice skating which need snow and

ice.

李：噢，不！冬奥会并不包括跑步和骑马比赛，但是却有像滑冰和滑雪这

类需要冰雪的比赛项目，

That’s why they’re called the Winter Olympics. It’s in the

Summer Olympics that you have the running races, together with

swimming, sailing and all the team sports.
