In 1954,Beaver decided to work on it.He asked for help from two friends who owned an information centre in London.They put together the first edition of the Guinness Book of World Records in August,1955.The book was a great success.It was well received by readers and immediately won the No.1 best-seller in Britain.The book of records has been renewed each year and has been bought and enjoyed in 141 countries around the world.The 262 editions and 35 languages it has used,may be a record itself.2.China Gains 19 Guinness World Records in xxThe worlds largest afforestation project,fastest mercial maglev train and even the longest continuous motorcycle ride with the rider standing on the seat without touching the handlebars were verified by the Guinness Book of World Records in xx-and all belong to China.The second issuing ceremony of a Guinness World Records Certificate was held in Beijing Wednesday with the presence of Chief Executive Officer of Guinness World Records Alistair Richards and the president of its sole Chinese agent-the Liaoning Publishing Group-Yu Xiaoqun.The ceremoney authenticated 19 world records altogether,broken by Chinese teams or individuals in xx.The tree-planting project launched in Chinas north,north-west and north-east regions covers 4.069 million square kilometers,and is recognized as the worlds largest afforestation project.The maglev train made its maiden trip on Sept.20 in Shanghai.It took eight minutes to plete the 30 kilometers one-way journeyfrom Longyang Road to Pudong International Airport,making it the worlds fastest mercial maglev train for sightseeing use.Liu Jichun,who was certified as having made the worlds longest continuous motorcycle ride while standing on the seat and not touching the handlebars with the ride lasting 14 minutes for 6.45 kilometers said,“The Guinness Book of World Records is being well known in China,and it touches peoples lives in various ways.” China has so far applied for more than 500 records to be recognized by The Guinness Book of World Records,and over 40 of them have been officially corroborated so far,a manager of the Liaoning Publishing Group said.3.A real winner.In 1996,doctors said American cyclist Lance Armstrong had only a 40 percent chance of living.Hes done more than stay alive.He beat cancer and went to the top of one of the worlds hardest sports.Armstrong is world-famous for being fast on a bike.“I used to ride my bike to make a living.Now I just want to live to ride,”he said. Last Thursday,the United States Olympic mittee named Armstrong xxs Sportsman of the Year.This is the fourth time he has won that award.The 32-year-old got the award after winning the Tour de France for the fifth time in a row last year.The Tour de France is the longest and most famous bike race in the world.It covers more than 3000 kilometres and takes more than 20 days.Riders from many countries take part each summer,but many never finish because of the hot weather and long,hard roads! But Armstrong won.In fact,many people think he will win again this summer!He first did it in xx after ing back from cancer,and he hasnt stopped winning since then.Armstrong isnt getting any younger,but age hasnt slowed him down:“I have more grey hair,and I think I get out of bed slower than five years ago,but I feel fine,strong and ready to go.”If Armstrong wins this years Tour,he will break a record.And hes not thinking about retiring：“The only thing I know is I feel as strong as ever,and there still are a lot of beautiful races to be won.”.Teaching Time:Five periodsThe First PeriodTeaching Aims:1.Learn and master the following words:beard,cheetah,sailfish,voyager,tight,gorge2.Learn something about world records of all kinds.3.Train the students is tening ability.4.Develop the students speaking ability by talking about records,adventures and hobbies.Teaching Important Points:1.Finish the task of listening to train the students listening ability.2.Talk about records,adventures and hobbies to improve the students speaking ability.
