Unit 8 A Small World
7.Listen.Fill the chart.
9.Listen and sing.
I Think I Might Travel
I think I might travel I think I might roam
Across the wide world Far away from my home.
A wonderful planet Outside of my door
With wondrous inventions That I can explore.
INVENTIONS MAKE OUR WORLD SMALLER by Judy Veramendi
1.Think about your favorite things.
Did you never wonder where they were discovered or invented?
This is the story of four important inventions.
Thanks to the Chinese,we can enjoy fireworks!
How they were invented is a mystery.
We think that the Chinese made fireworks
to protect themselves from enemies.
But,It all happened a long,long time ago.
Think of fireworks.Imagine a rainbow of colors dancing in the sky.
Imagine the huge BOOM!
Billions all over the world enjoy this wonderful Chinese invention.
2.A very important invention for all of us was the calendar.
Calendars were invented in a number of countries:
China,Mexico,France,and India.
But the first calendar wiht 365 days was invented in Egypt.
The Egyptian calendar had twelve months.
Every month had thirty days.
The five days lelf at the end of the year were used for celebrations.
Can you imagine where we might be without the calendar?
3.Chocolate!We know where it came from.
For years and years the Aztecs
used the beans of a tree to make chocolate
Then in the 1500s,the Aztecs Emperor Montezuma presented
presented a delicious chocolate drink to explorers
who had come Mexico from Spain.They tookit back to Spain.
It was one of the first exports from the New World to the Old World.
From that time on,chocolate was very popular in Spain.
Today the world loves chocolate milk,ice cream,and candy.
4.Did you ever fly in an airplane?
Did you wonder how it came to be?
For a long time,inventors
in a number of countries tried to solve the riddle of flight.
But the first inventors of a working airplane
were the Wright brothers of the United States.
They first experimented with kites.After that,
they tried different models of airplanes.
Then,on December 17,1903,they flew an airplane for twelve seconds!
The airplane is an invention that really made the world smaller.
And with future inventions,
it's true that the world will continue to get smaller and more exciting.
