So either the real tsunamis or the fictional movies make us rethink the relationship between humans and nature. Directions:Form the group of four and discuss on the following topic:Are we the “masters” of nature, or a part of the natural world?Clues:We human beings tend to take pride in our “mastery” of nature. Weve viewed ourselves as “conquerors” of the skies and oceans. Weve devised ways of using the natural resources of the earth for great profit. In recent years, however, weve begun to realize that we are not the masters of the natural world, but a part of it. Weve also begun to understand that if we do not treat the natural world with great respect, our very existence as a species may be threatened.Group Discussion 第6頁/共82頁第七頁，共82頁。Before ReadingGlobal ReadingDetailed ReadingAfter ReadingArt Buchwald(1925- ) A a well-known American humor columnist for Washington Post.

Except for the sun and the moon, Venus is the brightest object in the sky. The planet is called “the morning star” when it appears in the east at sunrise, and “the evening star” when it is in the west at sunset. The surface temperature of Venus averages about 475 degrees centigrade and its atmosphere is about 95% carbon dioxide. Oxygen is very rare. The high temperature and near absence of oxygen on Venus make it unlikely that life, as we know it, could exist there. It is satirically interesting that Art Buchwald has chosen the planet Venus as the setting for his story. His satire is most deeply felt when he has the Venusian professor say that if the Venusians can learn to breathe in an Earth atmosphere, then they can live anywhere else.第9頁/共82頁第十頁，共82頁。Before ReadingGlobal ReadingDetailed ReadingAfter ReadingListen to the introduction to , rearrange the order of the following nine planets in the box according to the order of their appearance in the video clip.Directions:Earth，Mercury，Jupiter，Venus， Neptune，Uranus，Mars， Saturn， PlutoMercury，Venus，Earth，Mars，Jupiter，Saturn，Uranus，Neptune，PlutoNine Planets and the Solar SystemNine Planets and the Solar System 第10頁/共82頁第十一頁，共82頁。Before ReadingGlobal ReadingDetailed ReadingAfter ReadingManhattanManhattan is in New York City.
