Finding the Best SummarySample:Ekwefi is telling a story about Tortoise. Long long ago, there was a famine, and the birds got an invitation from the sky to attend a feast there. Tortoise learned about it and with his sweet tongue he persuaded the birds to take him with them and so each bird lent him a feather. Tortoise cunningly thought of an idea that enabled him to have all the food by naming himself All of you. When they reached the sky, they received a warm welcome, and soon the food was presented to them. Then he asked one of the people in the sky, For whom have you prepared all this feast? The man replied: For all of you. So he ate almost all the best food. The birds became very angry and took back their feathers before flying home. Without feathers, he had to jump onto the ground and his shell was broken into pieces. 3. Acting out the Story（略）4. Taking SidesSample:1) I dont admire Tortoises cleverness. He was unwise to cheat all the birds. After his mischief, how could he have face to live together with them any longer? He would have no friends at all. He was clever, but at the same time he was also stupid . When all the birds became so angry, how could he have trusted Parrot? He should have jumped into the sea to avoid being hurt. I sympathize with the birds. They took Tortoise out of kindness, but after flying such a long distance, they had to fly back home on an empty stomach. They were formally invited, but the food was eaten by Tortoise. I think the birds were very unlucky. 2) I learned from the story that a) we should be honest, and shouldnt cheat others. If we cheat others, we will be punished in the end; b) we shouldnt be carried away by sweet words, like the birds; c) a leopard cant change its spots, nor can Tortoise. He was cunning, he could never change his personality and behave himself.

Translation PracticeFrom English into Chinese 万物之初，天地还是一体，充满混沌。宇宙如同一个大黑蛋，盘古就在黑蛋里。一万八千年以后，盘古长睡醒来，他感到窒息，于是他拿起一把大斧子，用尽全身力量砸开黑蛋。轻的、透明的部分冉冉上升，变成了天；而冷的、混浊的物体依然在下面，变成了大地。盘古站在中间，顶天立地。天地开始以每天一丈的速度分开，盘古的身子也随着长高。一万八千年后，天更高，地更厚，盘古像一根九百万里高的柱子伫立其间，天地永远也无法再合在一起。Unit 3 Social Probelms(P111)Post Reading Reading Comprehension1.
