Actress Fan Bingbing, who plays the role of Empress Wu Zetian, is a fabulous beauty. What did Wu Zetian, China`s only female monarch, look like in real life? Let`s explore the possibilities. 电视剧《武媚娘传奇》成了观众们的新宠。扮演武媚娘的范冰冰可谓美若天仙。而现实中，这位中国唯一的女皇帝到底容貌如何？且让我们一探究竟。‎ The famous Chinese scholar Guo Moruo researched this, and he thinks that a plump empress portrayed in a painting by Tang Dynasty painter Zhang Xuan is Wu Zetian. Zhang left many famous paintings, such as Paintings of Lady of Guoguo on a Spring Outing of the Tang Dynasty, Court Ladies Preparing Newly-Woven Silk and Lady of Wei. 我国著名学者郭沫若曾对此做过考证，他认为唐朝画家张萱笔下（《唐后行从图》）体态丰满的“皇后”正是武则天。张悬曾留下了许多著名画作，包括《虢国夫人游春图》、《捣练图》、《卫夫人像》等。‎ It is guessed that Zhang Xuan was a court painter and had met Wu Zetian before, so the portrait by him is quite reliable. （由于多绘宫中仕女）有猜测认为张悬曾作为宫廷画家见到过武则天本人，因此，他画中的武则天应较为可信。‎ Another frequently seen image of Wu Zetian is the block-painted edition of Images of Ancient People in History, created in 1498, during the reign of Emperor Hongzhi in the Ming Dynasty. However, as the painting was recreated by Ming people, it is not very reliable and possibly a portrait born out of imagination. ‎ 另一个版本的武则天出现频率很高，它出自明弘治十一年(1498年)的刻本《历代古人像赞》。由于是明人的再创作，所以这个版本的可信度不高，很可能是后人根据想象所画。‎ There are also many stone statues of Empress Wu Zetian, and the most ancient one is now at her birthplace, Guangyuan in Sichuan province. The statue is said to be vey close to the real appearance of Wu Zetian.‎ 除了画像，还有很多武则天的雕像（可做参考），比如位于武则天出生地四川广元皇泽寺的武则天石刻像，它是最早的武则天石像，也被认为是最接近武则天真实形象的一座。‎ When Empress Wu Zetian ascended the throne, she built many temples and Buddha statues. Many Buddha statues in the Longmen Grottoes in today`s Luoyang in Henan province were constructed during her reign. Among them, a large Vairocana Buddha in Fengxian Temple is considered to be a "portrait" of Wu Zetian at 44 years old.‎ 武则天称帝后，曾大兴佛寺、广凿佛像，洛阳龙门石窟中有许多佛像都完成于武则天时代。而龙门石窟奉先寺中的“卢舍那佛”，则被不少学者认为是武则天44岁时的“写真”。‎ The Buddha has characteristics of an oriental beauty`s face and is honored as the most beautiful Buddha in the world. At 17.14 meters high, the face of the Buddha looks elegant, pretty and plump, and has a mysterious smile. 卢舍那佛的面部特征具有东方女性之美，被誉为“世上最美丽的佛陀”。它身高17.14米，面容丰腴饱满、秀丽端庄、露出一丝神秘微笑。‎ Wu Zetian funded the statue`s construction and took part in the consecration ceremony when it was completed. Ancient people assumed that the statue was an embodiment of Empress Wu Zetian. （据《造像铭》记载）时为皇后的武则天曾为奉先寺的修建“助脂粉钱两万贯”，同时亲自参加了卢舍那佛的开光仪式。因此古人推测卢舍那佛正是武则天的化身。‎ According to ancient records, Wu Zetian had big eyes, a long neck, a big face and a square forehead. Anyway, Wu Zetian would not look like Fan Bingbing, who has the little face of a modern beauty. Moreover, maybe Wu Zetian was a woman who had a face similar to a man`s, as the Tang Dynasty regarded chubbiness as a standard of beauty and feminine temperament was not popular then. 而据古书记载，武则天有着“龙睛凤颈”，眼大而有神、脖颈细长；“方额广颐”，额头较方、脸颊较大。反正一定不会是范冰冰那样符合现代审美的小脸美女。说不定武则天其实生了一副男子面相，不过，这倒与唐代以胖为美，阴柔委婉不受青睐的女子审美标准十分相符。‎ 教学建议：‎ 1. 此部分是课本同步中重点词汇短语解析，旨在帮助学生牢固掌握核心词汇用法并能在具体语境中灵活运用；‎ 2. 对于词汇拼写可以采取先提问、默写的形式进行检测；对于词汇短语的用法课采取造句等形式，了解学生的掌握情况再进行讲解；‎ 3. 老师在讲解的过程中注意词汇及词组辨析。‎ U5重点词汇句型 ‎1.accidentally adv. 意外地；偶然地 ‎ e.g. As I turned around, I hit him in the face accidentally.‎ ‎ accidental adj. 偶然的，意外的 ‎ e.g. We were shocked at his accidental death.‎ ‎ accident n. 事故，意外的事 ‎ e.g. The train had an accident and many passengers were injured.‎ ‎ ★ by accident 偶然地 ‎ e.g. Columbus discovered America by accident.‎ 句子翻译：我只是偶然得知了秘密。‎ ‎ ‎ Key: I only found the secret by accident.‎ ‎2.smash v. 打破，打碎 ‎ e.g. Several windows have been smashed.‎ ‎3.miss v. 未击中、错过;想念 ‎ e.g. The bullet missed her by six inches.‎ ‎ I arrived at the station too late and missed the train.‎ ‎ Her children have gone to Australia and she misses them very much.‎ ‎ missing adj. 丢失的，找不到的 ‎ e.g. My gloves were missing.‎ ‎4.guilty adj. 有内疚感的，有负罪感的 ‎ e.g. She had a guilty look on her face.‎ ‎ be guilty of 有…罪 ‎ e.g. With the evidence, the police concluded that he was guilty of robbery.‎ 句子翻译：没能帮她让我感到很内疚。‎ ‎ ‎ Key: I feel really guilty about not being able to help her.‎ ‎5.tough adj. 强悍的；难对付的；坚强的；严格的 ‎ e.g. They are tough criminals.‎ ‎ Digging a tunnel under the river will be a tough job.‎ ‎ He is not tough enough for the job.‎ ‎ Don’t be too tough on him --- he was only a child.‎ ‎6.behavior n. 行为 ‎ e.g. Tom won a prize for his good behavior at school.‎ ‎ behave v. 表现；使举止规矩 ‎ e.g. The child behaved like an adult.‎ ‎7.regret v. 后悔 ‎ ★ regret doing sth. 遗憾做了某事 ‎ e.g. We regretted selling the farm.‎ ‎ ★ regret to say / tell / inform sb. that … 很遗憾的说/告诉/通知某人…‎ ‎ e.g. We regret to inform you that Flight BA 9372 will be delayed for an hour.‎ ‎ ★ have no regrets about / for doing 对做某事不后悔 ‎ e.g. He said that he had no regrets about leaving the company.‎ ‎ ★ much / greatly to my regret 深感遗憾；非常抱歉 ‎ e.g. Much to my regret, I am unable to accept your kind invitation.‎ 句子翻译：很遗憾，我们无法接受你的申请。‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ Key: We regret that we are unable to accept your application.‎ ‎8.violence n. 暴力 ‎ e.g. Is there much violence in this movie?‎ ‎ violent adj. 暴力的，猛烈的，剧烈的 ‎ e.g. In recent years, violent crimes have been decreasing.‎ ‎9.purchase n.购买的东西；购买、购置；v. 购买 ‎ e.g. Do you wish us to deliver your purchases?‎ ‎ She made several purchases in the shopping mall.‎ ‎ They have just purchased a new house in the country.‎ ‎10.mean to 诚心要 ‎ e.g. I didn’t mean to read your letter.‎ 句子翻译：对不起，我弄伤了你；我不是故意的。‎ ‎ ‎ Key: I'm sorry I hurt you; I didn't mean to.‎ ‎11.hesitate v.犹豫；迟疑不决 ‎ ★ hesitate to do ‎ e.g. I hesitate to tell you the truth.‎ ‎ hesitation n. 犹豫 ‎ ★ do sth. without hesitation 毫不犹豫做某事 ‎ e.g. Without a moment’s hesitation, she jumped into the river to save the drowning girl.‎ 句子翻译：有问题就直截了当地告诉我。‎ ‎ ‎ Key: Don't hesitate to tell me if you have a problem. ‎ ‎12.case n. 具体情况；事例 ‎ e.g. In some cases, people had to wait several weeks for an appointment.‎ ‎ ★ in any case 不管怎样 ‎ e.g. There is no point complaining now --- we are leaving tomorrow in any case.‎ ‎ ★ in that case 既然那样 ‎ --- I’ve made up my mind.‎ ‎ --- In that case, there is no point discussing further.‎ ‎13.persuade v.说服；劝说 ‎ e.g. Try to persuade him to come.‎ ‎ persuasion n.说服；劝说 ‎ e.g. She has great powers of persuasion.‎ ‎ persuasive adj.有说服力的 ‎ e.g. He can be very persuasive sometimes.‎ ‎14.contact v. / n. 联系；接触 ‎ e.g. I shall contact you by telephone on Friday.‎ ‎ ★ keep / be in contact with 与…保持/有联系 ‎ e.g. Have you kept contact with any of your friends in college?‎ ‎ ★ make contact with 与….取得联系 ‎ e.g. I finally made contact with her in Paris.‎ ‎ ★ lose / be out of contact with 与…失去联系 ‎ e.g. She has been out of contact with me for more than ten years.‎ 句子翻译：假如你需要进一步的信息，打电话与我们的代理人联系。‎ ‎ ‎ Key: If you need further information, contact our agent by telephone.‎ 练习：‎ A． Beneath each of the following sentences there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.

Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.‎ Although it is estimated that 345 million people in developing countries have been provided with safe drinking water, progress in Asia is illusory(不现实的). 'During this decade, fewer people in South Asia have access to clean and adequate water than in the 1970s,' says Nalini Jayal, senior advisor to India's Planning commission. 'The problem cannot be solved by drilling wells,' he argues, 'because ground water itself is becoming increasingly scarce.'‎ According to Jayal, there has been accelerating destruction recently of the trees and vegetation which earlier ensured ground water recharge. Denuded(剥下) of this cover, soils lose their absorbency, failing to soak up rainwater which then runs over the surface to be carried by rivers to the sea. Ground water recharge rates are critically controlled by top-soil. Also, heavy deforestation disrupts the hydrological cycle(水文循环) in which water e-vaporates and is returned to the earth's surface via rainfall. Each year the area prone to flooding increases. India's flood-prone areas have increased from 20 million hectares to 40 million hectares since 1971.‎ As a result of disruption of the groundwater recharge process, countries with monsoon (季风) climates experience an 'abnormal' cycle. This means there is too much water available during the rainy season and too little during the rest of the year. There is a tendency toward alternating floods and droughts, the former washing away the topsoil and the latter baking the bare land into an impermeable(无法渗透的) shield. India's expanding drought-prone area now exceeds 59 million hectares. Along with deforestation in the catchment (集水盆地) areas of perennial(永久性) rivers in South Asia, Jayal has identified the large-scale introduction of cash crops on agricultural land as an equally important factor in this ecological crisis.‎ Seventy percent of Indian croplands are not irrigated. Traditionally, farming practices had been evolved to cope ‎ with the threat of drought and to maximize the benefits of rain, says Jayal. On the rain-fed soils of the Deccan Plateau, for example, drought-resistant food crops used to be planted in mixed stands to spread risks. However, now cash crops, such as wheat and rice, replace these. Wheat, moreover, requires large amounts of both water and nutrients, neither of which are abundant in the semi-arid(半干旱的) environment in much of Asia. Traditional crops like chickpeas, on the other hand, withstand poor soil and moisture conditions, and thus do not overdraw(透支) the environmental bank account.‎ The present world industrial recession(不景气) is pushing both environmental and trade accounts into the red in the developing countries. Falling commodity prices mean that cash crops bring in less and less cash, leading to serious balance of payments and debt service problems. Desperate for foreign exchange, governments expand the area under cash crops, only to find they have increased long-term environmental damage. Thus every unit of foreign exchange is bought with a unit of forest or soil or water.‎ ‎1. Which of the following is the main topic of this passage?‎ A. More flooding but less water. B.

Falling commodity prices bring pressure for___________.‎ A. better financial management B. increased cash crops production C. subsidies for non-cash crops D. more equitable trade practices ‎4.

Early Christians also paid tribute to Mary, the mother of God, during Lent (四月斋). This tribute evolved into 'Mothering Sunday' in England. 'Mothering Sunday' is a celebration of all mothers, and is observed on the fourth Sunday of Lent.‎ In 1872, in America, Julia Ward Howe, the author of 'The Battle Hymn of the Republic', suggested the idea of Mother's Day. However, Anna Jarvis of Philadelphia is credited with creating Mother's Day in 1905. Anna Jarvis campaigned for Mother's Day as a tribute to her mother, who had tried to establish Mother's Friendship Day to help heal the (创伤) of the Civil War in America.‎ In 1910, West Virginia became the first state to adopt a formal holiday to recognize mothers. A year later, nearly every state officially marked the day of celebration. In 1914, President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed Mother's Day as a national holiday, to be held on the second Sunday of May.‎ Today, Mother's Day is celebrated in many countries throughout the world, although the celebrations do not fall on the same day in every country. Mother's Day is celebrated in various ways, depending on the country, the family, and the mother. Many families honor mothers by dining out, giving flowers, sending cards, giving gifts, and visits. Additionally, Mother's Day is reported to be one of the busiest days of the year for telephone calls.‎ Mother's Day should be every day. Mothers nurture us, teach us, protect us, and make us feel special. Mothers are the people in our lives who are most responsible for the way we grow and mature.‎ ‎1. Who was the mother of many of the gods in ancient Greece?‎ A. Anna B. Julia Ward Howe C. Virginia D. Rhea ‎2. When is Mother's Day celebrated in the United States?‎ A. On 5th Sunday in March. B.

None of the above.‎ ‎1—4 DDDC ‎(B)‎ By far the most common snake in Britain is the adder (蝰蛇). In Scotland, in fact, there are no other snakes at all. The adder is also the only British snake with a poisonous bite. It can be found almost anywhere, but prefers sunny hillsides and rough open country, including high ground. In Ireland there are no snakes at all.‎ Most people regard snake bites as a fatal misfortune, but not all bites are serious, and very few are fatal. Sometimes attempts at emergency treatment turn out to be more dangerous than the bite itself, with amateurs heroically, but mistakenly, trying do-it-yourself surgery and other unnecessary measures.‎ All snakes have small teeth, so it follows that all snakes can bite, but only the bite of the adder presents any danger. British snakes are shy animals and are far more frightened of you than you could possibly be of them. The adder will attack only if it feels threatened, as can happen if you take it by surprise and step on it accidentally, or if you try to catch it or pick it up, which it dislikes intensely. If it hears you coming, it will normally get out of the way as quickly as it can, but adders cannot move very rapidly and may attack before moving if you are very close.‎ The effect of a bite varies considerably. It depends upon several things, one of which is the body-weight of the person bitten. The bigger the person, the less harmful the bite is likely to be, which is why children suffer far more ‎ seriously from snake bites than adults. A healthy person will also have better resistance against the poison.‎ Very few people actually die from snake bites in Britain, and though these bites can make some people very ill, there are probably just as many cases of bites having little or no effect, as there are of serious illnesses.‎ ‎5.

It wasn't much but, as I turned, my eyes caught the heads of several other people turning too. A woman had dropped what appeared to be a dime(一角硬币).‎ The tinkling sound of a coin dropping on pavement is an attention-getter. It can be nothing more than a penny. Whatever the coin is, no one ignores the sound of it. It got me thinking about sounds again. We are besieged(包围) by so many sounds that attract the most attention. People in New York City seldom turn to look when a fire engine, a police car or an ambulance comes screaming along the street. When I'm in New York, I'm a New Yorker. I don't turn either. Like the natives, I hardly hear a siren there.‎ At home in my little town in Connecticut, it's different. The distant wail(警报声) of a police car, an emergency vehicle or a fire siren brings me to my feet if I'm seated and brings me to the window if I'm in bed. It's the quietest sounds that have most effect on us, not the loudest. In the middle of the night, I can hear a dripping tap a hundred yards away through three closed doors.‎ I've been hearing little creaking noises and sounds which my imagination turns into footsteps in the middle of the night for twenty-five years in our house. How come I never hear those sounds in the daytime? I'm quite clear in my mind what the good sounds are and what the bad sounds are. I've turned against whistling, for instance. I used to think of it as the mark of a happy worker but lately I've been associating the whistler with a nervous person making compulsive(由强迫产生的) noises. The tapping, tapping, tapping of my typewriter as the keys hit the paper is a lovely sound to me. I often like the sound of what I write better than the looks of it.‎ ‎9.
