(B = Bob J =
Jenny)
B：Hi，Jenny．Do you have someone in
mind that you admire?
J：Well，I think my
uncle is someone I admire．He is a firefighter．
B：A firefighter? You're right．A
firefighter's work is very important．But why do
you think
firefighters are admirable people?
J：I think they are admirable because they
put out fires and save people's lives．They also
spend
lots of time helping people who are in
danger．
B：That's right! They not only put
out fires，but also save people who are in danger．
They do
such important jobs，I agree．They are
admirable．
J：Absolutely，I admire them
because they are so brave and they don't seem to
be afraid of
danger．
6.2
(B
= Boy G = Girl)
B：Talking about people we
admire，what qualities do you think they should
have?
G：Well，there are quite a lot．For
me，I think they should be brave．They are not
afraid of
danger．They fight against evil and
save people's lives．
B：Yes，being brave is
important，but there are also other important
things．To be an admirable
person doesn't only
mean to fight all the time．Some people work very
hard and creatively to
make our lives
better，like scientists．They are also admirable．
G：Yes，I agree．And I think people who
fight against their own weaknesses are also
admirable
people，like Helen Keller and Zhang
Haidi．
B：You're right．
Lesson1 A
Medical Pioneer
At the Nobel Prize Lecture on
7 December，2015，an 84-year-old Chinese woman
walked slowly
on to the stage ．She began to
talk about the life-saving drug，artemisinin，which
she had
1 7
2019北师大版教材book2unit6听力文本和课文word版
discovered with the help of her team in the
1970s．The woman was Tu Youyou，the first Chinese
female scientist to be awarded a Nobel
Prize for her work． A scientist who was on the
Nobel
Prize Committee called Hans Forssberg
explained that
development of new drugs which
have saved the lives of millions． When thanking
the
Committee for the honour ，Tu Youyou
said，，but also
recognition and
encouragement for all scientists in China．
Tu Youyou was born in Zhejiang
Province，China，on 30 December，1930．She studied
medicine
at Peking University Health Science
Centre．After graduation，she became a member of
China
Academy of Chinese Medical
Sciences．Later，she studied Chinese medicine for
two and a half
years with experts in the field
from whom she gained a deep knowledge about
traditional
practices．
In 1969，Tu
Youyou was chosen to establish a team to find a
cure for malaria — a disease
that killed
millions of people every year．Across the
world，scientists had been trying to find a
cure．They tested more than 240，000 chemicals
with no success． However，Tu Youyou had
an idea
that Chinese herbs might hold the secret． She
studied ancient Chinese medical
literature
and visited experts in traditional Chinese
medicine．She researched hundreds of
traditional recipes connected to anti-malarial
cures．Then Tu Youyou and her team began using
modern research methods to study these Chinese
herbs one by one．
This was not an easy
task．The reason why this was difficult was that
the team had limited
resources．They did not
have enough staff，and the laboratory in which they
worked had poor air
quality．However，after
hundreds of failed experiments，they eventually
came across a
promising chemical．It worked
well in experiments on animals，but they had to
know if it was safe
for humans．Tu Youyou
bravely volunteered to be the first human subject
when they were ready
to start testing and the
rest of her team followed her．The test was a
success．The medicine they
discovered，artemisinin，has now become the
world's most effective drug for fighting
malaria．
Even though Tu Youyou is
not interested in fame ，she has become a
scientist whose work is
internationally
renowned． In 2019，she was selected by the BBC as
one of the most influential
figures of science
in the 20th Century along with Albert Einstein and
Alan Mathison Turing．Tu
Youyou was noted for
her bravery in being a scientist during a
difficult time for science in China，
her
ability to use old wisdom and new methods to
achieve her goals and the fact that her work
bridged the Eastern and Western worlds，saving
millions of lives．Today Tu Youyou continues to
conduct research despite her age．According
to Tu Youyou，
discovering artemisinin，we learnt
the wisdom behind both Chinese and Western
medicine．There
is great potential for
future advances if these two kinds of wisdom can
be fully
integrated ．．

(I = Interviewer R = Dr．Sam
Roberts)
I：Hello．I'm sure everyone knows about
Martin Luther King — a great man
who fought to
win equal rights for black people in the
US．Today，we have
Dr．Sam Roberts here to tell
us more about him．So what was King like as a
child?
R：Well，he was a smart boy，but he
suffered racial discrimination．
I：Racial
discrimination?
R：That's when people were
treated unfairly due to their skin
colour．Here's an example．In 1943，King took the
bus with his black
teacher．The white driver
told them to give their seats to two white people．
I：What? What did he do then?
R：King didn't
want to give up his seat．He believed that black
people
should be treated the same as white
people．However，in the end，they had to
do it．
I：Ah，what a shame! Did he do anything about
this later?
R：Yes．In 1955，King organised a bus
protest，and asked all black people
to stop
taking buses．After some struggles，they won the
right to sit next to
white people on
buses．This was King's first victory．
I：Great!
And King organised further protests in the
1960s，right?
R：Right．He organised many
peaceful protests，but he was put behind
bars
many times for doing so．In 1963，he organised a
march to Washington，
D.C．and made a speech
starting with the words ．
I：Yes，that's a
really famous and inspiring speech! For
example，
a dream that one day... We hold these
truths to be self-evident：that all men
are
created equal... I have a dream that my four
little children will one day live
in a nation
where they will not be judged by the colour of
their skin but by the
content of their
character...
R：Very impressive indeed! The next
year，King received the Nobel Peace
Prize．But，unfortunately，he was killed a few
years later in 1968．It was a great
loss．
I：Indeed．King will always be remembered for
doing a lot to help black
people in the US．He
has also inspired people around the world to fight
for
equal rights and justice．

G：So，for our school project，maybe we can talk
about Mahatma Gandhi?
I really admire and
respect him，and there's no doubt that he was one
of the
most important figures of the 20th
century．
B：Great idea! Let me write down some
notes．So，let's first talk about why
he was so
important．
G：OK．Well，Gandhi led India to
independence from British rule... mmm，
I'm not
sure about the exact date．
B：The date...
mmm．Oh，I can check this on my phone... India
became an
independent country in 1947．
G：Right，it was 1947．Gandhi was important also
because he believed in
the power of peaceful
protests where no one was hurt．He inspired many
people，including Martin Luther King．
B：Really? Are you sure about that?
G：Yes，I'm certain．I learnt this on a radio
programme the other day．
B：Oh! I didn't know
about that．And I guess we should also mention
Gandhi's Nobel Peace Prize．
G：Actually，I
don't think Gandhi ever won a Nobel Peace Prize．
B：Mmm... I don't know if that's true...
G：I'm pretty sure he didn't．Look，here，read
this web page．
B：Right．But perhaps we should
check a few other websites．Sometimes
the
information on the Internet can be wrong．
G：OK．Let me find a few more sources...
Lesson3 The superhero behind superman
The
story of Christopher Reeve's life is one that is
almost impossible to imagine — from a
wildly
successful Hollywood career，to the horror of
life-threatening injury；Reeve
experienced
both．Thus，not only is he known as a superhero in
the Superman films，but he is
also regarded as
a superhero to many in real life．
Reeve
was born on 25 September．1952 in New York — the
son of Franklin Reeve，a teacher
and
novelist，and Barbara Pitney，a journalist．He found
his passion in acting and starred
in his
first school play at the age of eight． Although he
believed he would only ever act on
stage，Reeve
tried out for，and was eventually given the lead
role in a Superman film．
Reeve starred
in four Superman films from 1978 to 1987．He
realised that his roles in these
films had
given him the opportunity to be a real-life
superman，and he soon gained a
reputation for
raising awareness for good causes．He visited sick
children in hospitals and
worked with
organisations such as Save the
Children，speaking out about health，education

2019北师大版教材book2unit6听力文本和课文word版
and child protection to help those most in
need．
Unfortunately，In 1995 disaster
struck Reeve．While horseback riding，he was thrown
off his
horse and broke his neck．His injuries
were so severe that he had no movement or
feeling
in his body at all and even needed a
machine to help him breathe．At first，his doctors
did not
believe that he would survive．During
this time，Reeve felt like he had lost all
hope．Having
once been a healthy and successful
young man to being trapped in a broken body was
like a
living nightmare to him．He admitted
that during the early stages of living with his
injury，he
wished that he was dead and even
thought of ending his own life．He fell into a
depression
which lasted for many months． It
was only due to the ongoing support of his
wife．family
and friends that he eventually
found the will to live again． For the years that
followed he
focused his attention on his goal
of one day walking again．
With a new
sense of energy and commitment，Reeve undertook an
intense exercise
programme to help him
achieve this goal．He engaged in a wide range of
exercises designed
to rebuild muscle，and
made remarkable progress．Shortly after，he managed
to return to his
film career by
directing，producing and even starring in films．He
also wrote a biography and
returned to his
charity work．Reeve became a passionate and
energetic advocate for
people with back
injuries and disabilities，raising millions of
dollars in support of medical
research．
'superman' to do it．His positive
attitude inspired many people who were stuck in
illness．，I'm confident that people like me
would
be able to walk again one day． So you
can see．I 'm too busy with living to think of
giving
up !
Sadly，on 10
October，2004，Christopher Reeve passed away ．He
will always be remembered
as a superhero — in
more ways than one．

SPACE HEROES
In the history of
space exploration，hundreds of astronauts have made
the journey into
space．Men and women from all
over the world have studied，trained and worked
hard in order
to go into space．It is a job
that calls for a special blend of skill，talent and
bravery．as well as great
physical and mental
strength．There are many risks and dangers，but the
work ts extremely
important，and the knowledge
that we can gain from exploring space is
invaluable.
Challenger
Sometimes
even the best-planned space missions can go
terribly wrong．The Challenger mission
is an
example of this．On 28 January，1986，seven American
astronauts(five men and two
women)died when
the US space shuttle Challenger exploded soon
after it was
5 7
2019北师大版教材book2unit6听力文本和课文word版
launched．Among them was Sharon Christa
McAuliffe，a secondary school teacher，who was
going to be the first teacher in
space．Millions of people around the
world，including many
students in primary and
secondary schools，watched the disaster happen live
on TV．
Here is part of US President
Ronald Reagan's speech after the 1986 Challenger
disaster：
，that special spirit
that
says，'Give me a challenge and I'll meet it with
joy．'They had a hunger to explore the
universe
and discover its truths．They wished to serve，and
they did．They served all of us．
Shenzhou V
China's first manned spaceship lifted off
on 15 October，2003．The spaceship，called Shenzhou
V，
was carrying China's first astronaut，Yang
Liwei．
During the 21-hour space
flight，the Shenzhou V circled the Earth 14
times．While the spaceship
was circling the
Earth，Yang Liwei performed a number of scientific
tasks and had a chance to
speak to his
family．He also flew the flags of China and the
United Nations，symbolising China's
wish to
explore and use space peacefully．
On 16
October，the Shenzhou V landed safely in Inner
Mongolia．Millions of people all over the
world
watched the landing on TV．When Yang Liwei climbed
out of the spaceship，he smiled and
waved to
the crowds waiting for him．Although he was happy
to be home，he said，
hours was too short to stay
jn space．
ANNE FRANK AND HER DIARY
Since 1947，The Diary of Anne Frank has been
one of the most powerful accounts of the
experience of the Holocaust and has helped to
give a human face to the suffering it
involved．Although it was written by a young
girl in a terrible situation，it conveys a message
of
courage and hope．
Throughout
history，we can find examples of inspiring young
people who showed courage and
hope in times of
extreme hardship．Anne Frank is one of them．Her
diary is one of the most
important diaries
ever written．
Anne was born on 12
June，1929，in Frankfurn，Germany．Her family was
Jewish．During World
War Ⅱ，they had to live in
a secret hiding place to escape the Nazi
Holocaust ．This was a
time when the German
Nazis were killing Jews．Around six million Jews
died in the Holocaust．
Anne's father was
a successful businessman in Germany．When the Nazis
took control of the
country in 1933，the Frank
family moved to Amsterdam in the
Netherlands．Later，this city
became unsafe，so
Anne's father prepared some secret rooms above his
offices．On 6 July，1942，
Anne moved into this
，her older sister Margot，and four
6 7
2019北师大版教材book2unit6听力文本和课文word版
other Jewish people．
The annexe was
small and crowded．Everyone had to be very
quiet．They were often hungry and
always afraid
of being caught．To keep busy，Anne wrote in her
diary．She described her daily life
and her
struggles，but also wrote about her hopes and
dreams．don't think of all the
misery ，，．
The family was in hiding for two years．During
that time，Anne kept a diary and wrote in it almost
every day．On 4 August，1944，the annexe was
discovered and everyone hiding there were sent
to labour camps ．Anne and her sister Margot
died in a German camp in March 1945．Of all the
people who had hidden in the annexe，only Otto
Frank，Anne's father，survived．
Anne's
diary was discovered by friends and returned to
Otto Frank after the war．The diary was
originally written in Dutch．Since then，it has
been published In at least 67 languages and 31
million copies have been sold．The English
version is called The Diary of a Young
Girl．Today，the
annexe building in Amsterdam
where Anne and her family hid is a museum called
Anne Frank
House．
Although Anne's
life in hiding was extremely difficult，her diary
reveals her positive attitude．For
example，in
1944，she wrote，
heart．
Anne Frank's
diary has inspired teenagers
everywhere．，，
don't know how great you can
be，how much you can love，what you can accomplish
，and
what your potential is!
