Language Points
1.I think natural wonders are more interesting than man-made ones.
1) I think 為主句，后面是省略了連接詞that的賓語從句。如：I think maths is more difficult than English.
2) ones 作代詞，指代wonders. ones 指代復數(shù)名詞，同類不同物。如: These pictures are more colourful than those ones.
2. Hm, I’ve never seen it, so I’m not sure I agree with you.
1) 并列連詞so 連接兩個分句， 表因果關(guān)系。如：The work has been finished, so you needn’t come.
2) be (not) sure (不) 確定。 其后接不定式，也可接從句。如：I’m sure to come.
I’m not sure you are right.
3. They’re about 1,700 metres wide and 100 metres high.
物體長、寬、高等的表達為：數(shù)詞+計量詞+ long/wide/high. 它相當于 “ 數(shù)詞+計量詞+in length/width/height”.
如：The river is about 2,000 metres long. = The river is about 2,000 metres in length.

2. ancient adj. 遠古的；古代的 = very old
an ancient civilization 古代文明
He is studying ancient history in the university.
他在大學研究古代歷史。
ancient 常用來修飾物
old 可以用來修飾人、動物和事物
adj. 自古以來的，古老的
an ancient custom 古老的習慣
But in my opinion, man-made wonders are more exciting than natural ones.
但是, 在我看來, 人造奇觀比自然奇觀更激動人心。
本句中natural ones 與 man-made wonders
相對應 ones 代替前面提到的wonders。
in one’s opinion 表示“按某人的意見;據(jù)某人看來”。
Who, in your opinion, is the best football
player in the world today?在你看來，誰是當
今世界上最好的足 球運動員？
