外研版九年级英语上全册课文翻译 Module 1 Wonders of the world Unit 1: It’s more than 2000 years old. 托尼:我们给《世界奇观》节目打电话，加入讨论吧。我觉得自然奇观比人造奇观更有趣。而且我认为巨人之路是最神奇的自然奇观。 玲玲:嗯，我没有见过巨人之路，所以我不知道该不该同意你的看法。你为什么会喜欢它呢，托尼？ 托尼:哦，两年前我浏览了巨人之路。它非常大，由大约4万多块石块组成，大多数石块都有六个面。巨人之路位于北爱尔兰东海岸，绵延数百米。 玲玲:听起来很神奇，但我认为非洲的维多利亚瀑布更壮观。瀑布宽约1700米，高约100米，数千米之外就能听到瀑布的巨响。 贝蒂:哇！那么大啊！但是，在我看来，人造奇观比自然奇观更激动人心。就说兵马俑吧，它们都有两千多年的历史了。 大明:我同意你的看法，贝蒂。我觉得三峡大坝也很神奇。大坝长约2300米，高185米，顶部宽15米。它为中国数百万的人口供电。 贝蒂:那现在谁来拨打热线？ Unit 2 The Grand Canyon was not just big . 自然界的一大奇观 我到那里时是大清早，天下着雨。我朝东边看了看，天空变得灰蒙蒙的。我下了车，穿过一道门，沿着一条黑暗的小路前行。虽然什么也看不见，但我知道它就在那里。 大约走了一英里，小路边出现了一个陌生人。我问道：“我走的路对吗？”他知道我要去哪里。他答道：“对，五分钟后你就能到达那里。”终于，我走到一些岩石前停了下来。我朝那片岩石望过去，但是一片寂静，还是看不见它。 突然，雨停了，云散了。太阳从我身后升起，照在岩石上。地面(仿佛在随着光线)向下延伸，（逐渐）退落到下面的一条河里。我在眺望着这自然界奇观之一的大峡谷。

Module 1 When I arrived, it was early morning and it was raining. I got out of the car, went through a gate and walked along a path. In the east, the sky was becoming light. I knew it was there, but there was nothing to see. After about a mile, a stranger appeared in front of me. “Am I going the right way?” I asked. He knew where I was going. “Yes,” he replied. “you’ll get there in five minutes.” Finally, I came to some rocks and stopped. I looked over them, but it was silent and there was no sign of it. Suddenly, the clouds cleared and the rain stopped. The sun rose behind me and beyond the rocks. I saw that the ground fell away and down to a river, far below me. I was looking across the Grand Canyon, one of the wonders of the natural world. I looked down to the Colorado River, from here a silver stream nearly one mile below me. If you put the two tallest buildings in the world on top of the each other at the bottom of the canyon, they still wouldn’t reach the top. Then I looked across to the other side of the canyon. How far is it? It’s about fifteen miles, maybe more. Finally, I looked to my left and to my right, and on both sides the canyon went far away, about 277 miles long. The Grand Canyon is not just big. It’s huge! I remained by the canyon for about half an hour, and I asked myself, “Is the Grand Canyon the greatest wonder anywhere in the natural world?” I certainly know the answer. But what do you think? Module 2 Thanksgiving is an American festival. People give thanks for their food. It’s celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November and it’s a time for a special dinner among family and friends. We’ve celebrated the festival since the first pioneers from England arrived in America by ship in the seventeenth century. While they were crossing the Atlantic, many people died, and after they landed, their first winter was worse than any English winter. The local people, the Native Americans, taught the pioneers how to grow corn, catch fish and keep cows, sheep and hens. The following year they celebrated together by eating a dinner of the new food. We still celebrate Thanksgiving today with a traditional dinner. The kitchen is the most crowded room in our house because we all help to prepare the food there. We lay the table, then before we begin dinner, my father gives praise for the food, so we remember where the festival comes from. We usually eat too much, but it’s only once a year! We often listen to speeches and tell stories after dinner as well. When it’s all over everyone helps wash the dishes.

The festival is a very busy time for travel when friends and families come together to celebrate. After we finish the Thanksgiving Day festival, there are plenty of other things to see and do. We live in New York City, and we go to watch the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, along with thousands of people as it goes along several streets and finishes at the famous Macy’s Store. Thanksgiving is also the start of the Christmas season, and we start shopping for presents. Football is also important at Thanksgiving, with many teams playing games. Like many Americans, we usually watch the games on television and enjoy ourselves very much.

Betty:Well,each of us reads a favourite book and writes a review for the discussion. Mr.Jackson:I see.We’re still influenced by Confucius ideas,and Shakespeare’s plays also make a lot of sense to us today.People have always read,and will always read great books.By the way,what do you think of Mark Twain,the Great American writer in the nineteenth century?

托尼:我们给《世界奇观》节目打电话，加入讨论吧。我觉得自然奇观比人造奇观更有趣。而且我认为巨人之路是最神奇的自然奇观。 玲玲:嗯，我没有见过巨人之路，所以我不知道该不该同意你的看法。你为什么会喜欢它呢，托尼？ 托尼:哦，两年前我浏览了巨人之路。它非常大，由大约4万多块石块组成，大多数石块都有六个面。巨人之路位于北爱尔兰东海岸，绵延数百米。 玲玲:听起来很神奇，但我认为非洲的维多利亚瀑布更壮观。瀑布宽约1700米，高约100米，数千米之外就能听到瀑布的巨响。 贝蒂:哇！那么大啊！但是，在我看来，人造奇观比自然奇观更激动人心。就说兵马俑吧，它们都有两千多年的历史了。 大明:我同意你的看法，贝蒂。我觉得三峡大坝也很神奇。大坝长约2300米，高185米，顶部宽15米。它为中国数百万的人口供电。 贝蒂:那现在谁来拨打热线？

我到那里时是大清早，天下着雨。我朝东边看了看，天空变得灰蒙蒙的。我下了车，穿过一道门，沿着一条黑暗的小路前行。虽然什么也看不见，但我知道它就在那里。 大约走了一英里，小路边出现了一个陌生人。我问道：“我走的路对吗？”他知道我要去哪里。他答道：“对，五分钟后你就能到达那里。”终于，我走到一些岩石前停 了下来。我朝那片岩石望过去，但是一片寂静，还是看不见它。 突然，雨停了，云散了。太阳从我身后升起，照在岩石上。地面(仿佛在随着光线)向 下延伸，（逐渐）退落到下面的一条河里。我在眺望着这自然界奇观之一的大峡谷。 我俯视着距我一英里之遥的银色的科罗拉多河。即使你把世界上最高的两栋建筑物叠在一起放在谷底，它们仍就到不到了顶。然后我眺望峡谷的另一边。它大约在15英里之外，也许更远。最后，我向左右遥望，大峡谷向两边延伸, 长达200多英里。大峡谷不仅仅是大，而是巨大！ 我在大峡谷伫立半小时有余，我问了自己一个问题：“大峡谷是自然界中最壮观的奇观吗？”我心中自然已有答案。你怎么认为呢？ 托尼: 玲玲, 10月1日是中国的国庆节，对吗？ 玲玲: 是的。中华人民共和国成立于1949年10月1 日。从那时开始，中国人（每年）都庆祝国庆节。（国庆节时）到处都有鲜花和国旗，我们休假3天。
