7、 adv. 的確,確實(shí)look up to 敬佩把你沒(méi)有記牢的挑出來(lái)，好好滴記住哦！The curse of the mummyFocus Howard Carter is one of the most famous explorers the world has ever known. He was brave and loved to visit and explored new places. During his life, he discovered many amazing things. Howard Carter did not go to school, but learn

8、t to draw from his father, who was an artist. He was bright and curious about the world outside his hometown. In 1891, at the age of 17, he set sail for Alexandria, Egypt. By the 1920s, he had become an explorer, searching for the tombs of the Egyptian kings. He found several important ones. Inside

9、the tombs, he discovered a great fortune in jewels and gold, along with the preserved bodies of dead kings. These preserved bodies are known as mummies. In 1922, Howard Carter made his most amazing discovery of all, in the Valley of the Kings, in Egypt. He had received money from Lord Carnarvon, a B

10、ritish man who was very interested in Egypt. Carter's team was working at a place near the city of Luxor. There, they came across the tomb of King Tutankhamun. It was the most important tomb that had ever been found. The tomb contained more treasure than any of us had ever seen before, as well a

11、s the mummy of the king,' said Carter. After we looked into the tomb, we closed it and hid its entrance. We wanted to study the tomb later when we had more time. Afterwards, all of its contents would go into a museum.However, not long after the discovery, people in Carter's team began to fal

12、l ill and die. Upon their entering the tomb, Carter's lucky pet bird, which had left in Cairo, was swallowed by a snake. Then, a few months after Carter had opened the tomb, Lord Carnarvon, who was also present when the tomb was opened, fell ill with a fever and died in Egypt. At the moment of C

13、arnarvon's death, the lights went out in Cairo, the capital of Egypt. Back in England, his dog died at approximately the same time. George Gould, a friend of Carnarvons, went to Egypt after hearing of his strange death. He too visited the tomb, only to catch a high fever the next day. Twelve hou

14、rs later, he was dead. Carter's secretary, Richard Bethell, died of heart trouble four months after the tomb was opened. Arthur Mace, another member of the team, also died shortly after the discovery. Within seven years, 21 people who had something to do with the opening of the tomb died. Howard

15、 Carter, however, lived on until the age of 65. Some people say the deaths were just coincidence. Others believe that they were in connection with a mummy's curse, as a punishment for those who enter the resting place of the dead. However, still others believe that there is a scientific explanat

16、ion. Inside the tombs, there are many viruses. When a tomb is opened, fresh air disturbs the viruses. If breathed in, they can result in illness or even death. Today, when scientists examine mummies, they wear special clothing for protection. What is certain, though, is that the curse of the mummy r

17、emains a riddle to this day.Dian Fossey is now regarded as one of the heroes of the 20th century. Her love for the mountain gorillas in Africa taught people about dangers these animals are facing. Dian was an outgoing and kind person, and able to gain valuable data about their lives by becoming a co

18、mpanion to them. Dian Fossey was born in California in 1932. She graduated from university in 1954 and worked at a children's hospital in Kentucky for several years. However, her interest in animals, and the writings of an American scientist called George Schaller, inspired her to take the first

19、 step towards her future work. In 1966, she went to Africa to study rare mountain gorillas. Even though some of the gorillas were quite dangerous, this did not discourage Dian. She showed great devotion to her work and loved to tell people about gorillas. Because the gorillas had interested her so m

20、uch, Dian decided to study for a PhD. After she finished her degree, she wrote a book about the gorillas she had lived with. She later returned to Africa. However, she was murdered in 1985. Dian Fossey is still alive in our hearts to this day. Thanks to her research, we now know more about mountain

21、gorillas. They are also protected by governments and various organizations. Without her work, there would be very few mountain gorillas left today.First period Listen and learn: Listen to the wordlist and try to learn the words and phrases by heart.Step 1: Step 2: Personal showTask 1: Give the follo
