雅思拓展阅读：《阿凡达》故事情节

　　In their avatar forms, Augustine, biologist Norm Spellman and Jake leave the base to take biological samples and reestablish peaceful relations with the Navi. A predator attacks them and Jake becomes separated and lost. Neytiri , a female Navi, rescues him, bringing him to Hometree, which is inhabited by her clan, the Omaticaya. Neytiris mother Moat , the clans shaman, shows interest in the warrior Dream-walker and instructs her daughter to teach Jake their ways. Colonel Miles Quaritch , leader of the security forces, enlists Jake to bring him intelligence about the natives that could help RDA convince the Navi to leave Hometree so the company can mine the unobtanium that lies beneath it. He promises Jake that he will help him obtain the treatment needed to restore his legs.

　　Jake delivers information to Quaritch, but Augustine becomes suspicious and relocates herself, Jake and Norm to a remote outpost with avatar link units. Over three months, Jake grows close to Neytiri and the Omaticaya, eventually rejecting RDAs agenda. He is initiated into the Omaticaya, and he and Neytiri choose each other as mates. Jake reveals his change of allegiance when he disables a bulldozer as it destroys the tribes Tree of Voices. Quaritch presents Selfridge with Jakes video diary, in which Jake admits that the Omaticaya will never abandon Hometree. Selfridge orders Hometree destroyed.

　　Despite Augustines argument that the destruction of Hometree could affect the bio-botanical neural network that Pandoran organisms are connected to, Selfridge gives Jake and Augustine one hour to convince the Navi to leave Hometree. Jake reveals his original mission to the Omaticaya, and Neytiri accuses him of betrayal. Jake and Augustines avatars are taken captive. Quaritchs forces destroy Hometree, killing Neytiris father, the clan chief Eytucan , and many others. Jake, Augustine and Norm are imprisoned. Trudy Chacn , a security force pilot disgusted with Quaritchs methods, breaks them out and flies them to the outpost, which they relocate. During the escape Quaritch shoots Augustine, seriously wounding her.
