Lesson 64 The Channel Tunnel 海峡隧道First listen and then answer the question. 听录音，然后回答以下问题。 Why was the first tunnel not completed?In 1858, a French engineer, Aime Thome de Gamond, arrived in England with a plan for a twenty-one-mile tunnel under the English Channel. He said that it would be possible to build a platform in the centre of the Channel. This platform would serve as a port and a railway station. The tunnel would be well-ventilated if tall chimneys were built above sea level. In 1860, a better plan was put forward by an Englishman, William Low. He suggested that a double railway-tunnel should be built. This would solve the problem of ventilation, for if a train entered this tunnel, it would draw in fresh air behind it. Forty-two years later a tunnel was actually begun. If, at the time, the British had not feared invasion, it would have been completed. The world had to wait almost another 100 years for the Channel Tunnel. It was officially opened on March 7,1994, finally connecting Britain to the European continent.1. tunnel tnl n. 隧道2. port p:t, put n. 港口3. ventilate ventileit v. 通风4. chimney timni n. 烟囱5. sea level levl 海平面6. double dbl adj. 双的7. ventilation ,ventilein n. 通风8. fear fi v. 害怕9. invasion invein n. 入侵，侵略10.officially fili adv. 正式地11.connect knekt v. 连接12.European ,jurpi:n adj. 欧洲的13.continent kntinnt n. 大陆参考译文： 1858年，一位名叫埃梅.托梅.德.干蒙的法国工程师带着建造一条长21英里、穿越英吉利海陕的隧道计划到了英国。他说，可以在隧道中央建造一座平台，这座平台将用作码头和火车站。如果再建些伸出海面的高大的烟囱状通风管，隧道就具备了良好的通风条件。1860年，一位名叫威廉.洛的英国人提出了一项更好的计划。他提议建一条双轨隧道，这样就解决了通风问题。因为如果有列火车开进隧道，它就把新鲜空气随之抽进了隧道。42年以后，隧道实际已经开始建了。如果不是因为那时英国人害怕入侵，隧道早已建成了。世界不得不再等将近100年才看到海峡隧道竣工。它于1994年3月7日正式开通，将英国与欧洲大陆连到了一起。（标题生词讲解）channel tnlChannel:频道 teaching channel教学频道communication channel交流频道Can we change another channel?We cant get channel 4 on our television。我们的电视收不到4频道。The Channel Tunnel 海峡隧道channel v 传递She channel her information to me. 她把她的信息传递给我【生词讲解】1. tunnel tnl n. 隧道The Channel Tunnel 海峡隧道the train passed through several tunnels.火车要穿过好几个隧道。Light at the end of the tunnel。苦尽甘来tunnel v 开，挖，隧道。The tunnel cuts through the mountain 隧道穿山而过。2. port p:t, put n. 港口passport 护照enter a port 进入一个港口make a portleave a port 离开一个港口clear a porta free port 自由港port wine葡萄酒Eg：The typhoon stopped the ship from leaving the port.台风阻止船出港3. ventilate ventileit v. 通风well-ventilated adj通风良好的 （只能做定语）our classroom is well-ventilated.my office is poorly-ventilated.我的办公室通风不好4. ventilation ,ventilein n. 通风put a problem to ventilation畅谈ventilator通风设备，通风口airing 通风口5. chimney timni n. 烟囱sweep a chimney=clean a chimney清扫烟囱a blocked chimney 堵塞的烟囱factory chimney/chimneys工厂的烟囱it is said that Father Christmas gives the children present through the chimney.=it is said that Father Christmas comes down chimney to bring presents.6. sea level levl 海平面sea 大海 level水平，海拔。water always seeks its own level.水性自平level n,高度altitude 1）水平one thousand metres above sealevel海拔1000米water always seeks its own level水性自平2）n,高度，等级the level of the water水位high level 高水平的，高级的low level低级的，低水平的a higher level of civilization高度文明3）adj平的a level surface 平坦的表面the road is level.路是平的4）adj 相同程度的；势均力敌的a level race 一场势均力敌的比赛in level tones 一个调in a level voice 平和的语气do ones level best =try ones best =do ones possible尽最大的努力7. double dbl adj. 双的反义词singlea double room 双人房间 a double bed双人床double chin 双下巴double negative双重否定double Dutch n.莫名其妙的话,语无伦次的话（Dutch treat 各自付费的聚餐或娱乐活动=go Dutch）double standard双重标准double talk 含糊其辞的话see double 看成双影double check仔细检查double boiler双层的蒸锅double date两对人约会I d like to book a double room.pay double 付两倍的钱double ones salary薪水加倍double fault 两次发球失误double play 双杀8. fear fi v. 害怕 =terror1）n.害怕The soldier didnt show his fear. 这个士兵没有显示出畏惧的神色。The child had no fear of water.这个孩子不怕水。a fear of heights恐高症the fear of God 对上帝的敬畏have a great fear of sth极度害怕某物She has a great fear of fire.他很怕火。2）v. 害怕=be afraid ofHe fears death. 他怕死He fears illness. 他怕生病never fear! 别担心=dont worryShe feared to speak in the public.她害怕在公共场合说话。fear doinghe feared staying alone in the dark.他害怕一个人呆在黑暗处。fear to do sth 害怕做某事she feared to speak in the public.他害怕在公共场合说话。a fearful storm 一场恐怖的暴风雨3）adj. fearful 恐怖的be fearful of 害怕The baby is fearful of dark. 这个婴儿怕黑。派生词fearless filis adj. 无畏的9. invasion invein n. 入侵，侵略invade vt 入侵、蜂拥invade a village入侵一个小村庄The tourists invade the city. 游客蜂拥进这个城市。invade sbs rights 侵犯某人的权利invader n 入侵者the invision of Poland by Germany 德国对波兰的入侵10. officially fili adv. 正式地office n 办公室 officer officialoffice办公室officer军官official adj. 官方的an official decision官方的决定an official annoucement 官方声明government officials 政府官员officially advannounce officially 正式地公告11. connect knekt v. 连接Please contact me with New York. 请给我接纽约。connection nConnection between A and B.connect this computer with that computerconnect the mouse to the computerconnect with 并列的连接connect to 连接向Connect this computer with that computer把这台电脑和那台电脑连接起来。He connected a mouse to the computer.他把鼠标连到电脑上。A highway connects the two cities.这条公路把两座城市连接起来。12.
