A new machine called 'The Revealer' has been invented and it has been used to detect gold which has been buried in the ground. The machine was used in a cave near the seashore where - it is said - pirates used to hide gold. The pirates would often bury gold in the cave and then fail to collect it. Armed with the new machine, a search party went into the cave hoping to find buried treasure. The leader of the party was examining the soil near the entrance to the cave when the machine showed that there was gold under the ground. Very excited, the party dug a hole two feel deep. They finally found a small gold coin which was almost worthless. The party then searched the whole cave thoroughly but did not find anything except an empty tin trunk. In spite of this, many people are confident that 'The Revealer' may reveal something of value fairly soon.【课文翻译】 最近，找到失踪宝藏的梦想差一点儿变成现实。一种叫“探宝器”的新机器已经发明出来，并被人们用来探测地下埋藏的金子。在靠近海边的一个据说过去海盗常在里面藏金子的岩洞里，这种机器被派上了用场。海盗们过去常把金子埋藏在那个洞里，可后来却没能取走。一支用这种新机器装备起来的探宝队进入了这个岩洞，希望找到埋藏着的金子。当这个队的队长正在检查洞口附近的土壤时，那台机器显示出它的下面埋有金子。队员们异常激动，就地挖了一个两英尺深的坑，但最后找到的是一枚几乎一钱不值的小金币。队员们接着又把整个洞彻底搜寻了一遍，但除了一只空铁皮箱外什么也没找到。尽管如此，很多人仍然相信“探宝器”很快就会探出值钱的东西来。【New words and expressions】（19） gold n. 金子 mine n. 矿treasure n. 财宝 revealer n. 探测器invent v. 发明 detect v. 探测bury v. 埋藏 cave n. 山洞seashore n. 海岸 pirate n. 海盗arm v. 武装 soil n. 泥土entrance n. 入口 finally adv. 最后worthless adj. 毫无价值的 thoroughly adv. 彻底地trunk n. 行李箱 confident adj. 有信心的value n. 价值一单词讲解：1. gold （1）n. 金子pure gold 纯金 ；a gold medal 金牌a gold ring ； a gold necklace a gold watch ； a gold mine 金矿 ； a goldfish 金鱼pay in gold 以黄金支付eg：All that glitters is not gold . （3） golden adj. 金的、金色的、贵重如金、幸运的、珍贵的a golden opportunity 良机 ； golden days（一生中的） 幸福时光eg：Speech is silver ；silence is golden . 2. mine （1） 我的 eg：He is a friend of mine .（2） 矿 a coal-mine煤矿 ； a gold-mine a mine worker a miner 矿工mineral adj.  minrl矿物，矿石，矿的、矿泉的mineral water  'minrl.w:t 矿泉水a mineral spring 一个矿泉3. treasure （1） n. 金银财宝、财富（gold , silver , jewel ,etc.） （c）/（u）buried treasure 埋藏的珍宝（2）n. 贵重物品 a national treasure 国宝 4. reveal v. 透露、泄露、揭露reveal sth to sb（bring sth to light） reveal secrets 泄露秘密 ； reveal details 披露详情reveal methods 透露方法 ； reveal faults 揭露错误reveal feelings 流露感情revealing adj. 揭露（事实真相的）；暴露真相revealing remarks 揭露真相的评论 ； revealing dress 暴露的连衣裙revealer n. 探测器5. invent v. 发明、创造 eg：Bell invented the telephone . 贝尔发明了电话。 在发明物前须家定冠词the invent a new teaching method 发明一种新的教学方法inventor 发明家 ； invention n. 发明、创造discover v. 发现eg：Ive discovered a super restaurant near her . 我在附近找到一家一流的餐馆! discovery n. 发现6. detect v. 发现 （不好的事物）查出、探测同义词discover, locate, spy, recognize 反义词conceal, hide变化形 动变detected detected detecting eg：A machine was used to detect gold . 一仪器器被用来探测黄金。detection  ditekn n.察觉，发觉；侦查，探测detector n. 探测器 ； detective n. 侦探7. bury （1） （将尸体）v. 埋藏（buried-buried） （2） 埋藏于地下 buried treasure 埋在地下的珍宝eg：The house was buried under ten feet of snow .房子被掩埋在十英尺厚的雪底下.8. cave n. 山洞hole n. 洞、孔、坑、洞穴、窟窿9. seashore n.海岸, 海滨Cthe S 变化形 名复seashores  shore a small house on the seashore 在海边的小房子seasick adj. 晕船 get seasick become seasick carsick adj. 晕车； homesick adj.想家seaside （1） n. 海边游憩地eg：We will spend the vacation at the seaside . 我们在海滨度过一个假期。（2） adj. 海岸的 a seaside town 海边的城镇 10. pirate 同义词steal, thieve, rob, pilfer 名复pirates （1） n. 海盗（可做定语） a pirate ship / flag 海盗船、的旗志（2） n. 盗印、盗版 （可做定语）a pirate video / tape 盗版 视频 /磁带11. arm （1）n. 手臂arm in arm 臂挽着臂 ； shoulder to shoulder 肩并肩hand in hand 手拉手armchair n.（单座） 沙发（2） v. 武装、装备arm sb with equip sb with weapons 用武器装备某人armed forces 武装力量（指一国的陆、海、空三军） armed to the teeth 全副武装12. soil （1） n. 泥土、土壤（近义词 ground ； earth） plow the soil 耕种土地 ； rich soil 沃土 poor soil 瘠土（2） 土地、国家 ones native soil 祖国eg：He died on Irish soil . 他死于爱尔兰。13 entrance n. 入口, 门口C(+to) 变化形 名复entrances （1）.入口（反义词 exit ） eg：Where is the entrance to the park , please ？请问公园的入口在哪里?（2） 入学entrance into college entrance to college 进入大学entrance examination 入学考试14. finally adv. 最后地 反义词firstfinal adj. 最后的last 仅表市顺序的最后； final 表一串事情的终了final preparations before leaving 离开前最后的准备eg：Whats the final word of this dictionary ？ 这本字典最后一个字是什么？final decision 最后判决、决定 ； final goal 最终目的the final ballot 决选投票finals n. 期末考试 take the finals 参加期末考试final n. 决赛 the World Cup Final 世界杯决赛finally adj. 最后、终于15. worthless adj. 毫无价值的worth adj. 值得的, 值钱的be worth doing 值得做 .eg：The film is worth seeing again . 这部影片值得一看再看。worthless adj. 无价值的，没有用处的 （valueless） -less 表反义的后缀：brainless 愚笨的 ； meaningless 无意义的homeless无家可归的 ； harmless 无害处的helpless 无助的 ； hopeless 没有希望的endless 没有尽头的 ； useless 毫无用处的priceless 无价的、珍贵的16. thoroughly adv. 彻底地、完全的17. trunk （1） 树干、躯干 trunk  trk  n.树干 ； leaf（leaves） li:fn.叶，叶子twig twig n.细枝，嫩枝； bough bau   n. 大树枝branch  br:ntn.树枝；分部 ： root  ru:t n.根(部) （2） n. 大行李箱、大衣箱briefcase 公文包 ； handbag（美语：purse ）手提包 suitcase 手提箱 ； shoulder bag 有肩带女用包、手提包knap sack 背包、登山袋 ； backpack 背包（3） 象鼻子（4）（美）（轿车车尾的） 行李箱 （英：boot ）18. confident adj. 确信的; 有信心的, 自信的(+of).in a confident manner 用自信的方法a confident smile/ speech 自信的微笑/讲话a confident look 自信的表情 ；be confident of sth 对某事有信心be confident that 对 . 坚信, 肯定confidence n. 信心19. value （1） n. 价值、效用eg：We must realize the value of humor .（2） 价格、价钱 market value 市场价格the value of land 土地的价格 valuable adj. 有价值的something is valuable something is of value某事具有价值something is of great value . 某事具有极大的价值valueless adj. 无价值的、无效果的 （worthless） invaluable 极其价值的 ； priceless  praisls 极其贵重的二Key structures： used to 与 would used to 和would 都可用来描述在过去某一段时间内的习惯动作或经常做的事，一般来说，我们用used to 来开始一段故事；used to 可用来表示现在与过去的对比，而 would 不能。eg：I used to go work by bus .

If you would like to swim indoors, a good time in the day is the early hours the body has the most energy to use because the body has woken up and will be ready for all kinds of different activities of the day. The body is going to work with enough energy and therefore a person will feel more comfortable if he swims during the early hours of the day. Swimming early in the day can also be good for anyone who plans to swim outdoors. The conditions outside will be excellent: the water will not be too cold or too hot, and the air will be just clean and fine. Everything is suitable. Usually, it is not a good idea to swim later in the day because ones body is tired after work for a whole day and also the weather conditions can be the worst in the later parts of the day. However, there are still some exceptions. Different people feel different and ones body acts differently at different times of the day. When a person is feeling active and is not tired at all after work, it may be a better time to swim for him than for others. If he is alert (警觉的) that time, he is safe in the water.In a word, the best time can change for every person. The persons body condition decides when the best time for swimming is.
