李林：你坐错位置了。

长者：真的吗？但是……我以为这是我的座位呢。我的票呢？（长者在口袋里、包里，最后又在钱包里翻找他的车票。）

长者：找到了。9车厢，12A座。这是12A座，对吗？（检票员来了。）

检票员：检票了，请大家准备好车票。长者：对不起，这是12A座吗？

检票员：是的，让我看看你的车票。哦，我知道问题在哪里了。这是12A座，但是您应该去9车厢，这里是8车厢。长者：哦，我真糊涂！我还是去找9车厢吧。（长者起身开始收拾他的包裹。）李林：等一下，先生！请您留下。我去坐9车厢你的座位吧。长者：哦，你太好了。谢谢！

温鹏：嗨！李林！真意外啊！李林：嗨！温鹏！见到你太高兴了。

温鹏：我也是！太棒了！漫长的旅程里有人陪我聊天了。好了，把外套脱了吧。舒舒服服地坐下来。对了，你怎么来得这么晚啊？

李林：哦，说来话长……

托尼: 愉快！我去看望了我的朋友苏茜，还参观了她的学校。

贝蒂:英国的学校是什么样的？托尼:这里有几张照片，我自己拍的。

大明:让我们看看。

托尼:这就是苏茜的学校。全校大约有700名学生，和其他大多数英国学校一样。

贝蒂:在英国每个班大约有多少学生？ 托尼:大概有30名。大明:我们每个班有40名。看来我们的班级大一些。看！每个人都穿夹克衫打领带呢。托尼:是的，在英国每个学生都穿校服。大明:而且大家都围着教室里的课桌坐着。

托尼:是的，他们没有坐成排。看看这游泳池和大型的运动场。大部分英国学校都有体育场。那里的孩子们非常喜欢踢足球。大明：我们也喜欢踢足球。而且我们也有一个很棒的游泳队。

贝蒂:我希望有一天能去参观苏茜的学校。它看起来真不错。

托尼:我们学校也很棒，而且我们这里有更多的学生。这就意味着有更多的人一起玩耍。

贝蒂: 还意味着有更多的朋友。

Unit 2 What do I like best about school? 2.Read the passage and answer the questions

我的学校生活

我叫苏茜·汤普森，今年15岁。从11岁开始我就一直在伦敦的里弗学校上学。要是明年考试合格，我还会继续在这里上学，直到18岁。

里弗学校是一所中学，距我家大约20分钟自行车车程。来这所学校之前，我在离家不远的小学上学。我五岁上小学，在那里待了六年。

周一到周五我们早上8：45上学，下午3：15放学。上课前老师会检查我们的出勤情况。然后大家都去礼堂开会。校长在那里公布校园新闻。9：05铃声响起，开始上课。每节课一个小时。11：05到11：15是课间休息时间，之后还有一节课，然后是一个小时的午餐时间。下午上完两节课就放学了。

今年我修了10门课程：数学、英语、物理、化学、法语、历史、地理、音乐、信息技术和体育。有些同学不学法语，学德语。幸运的是，我们不是每一门课程都考试。

我们有一个很大的运动场，可供学生课内外踢足球、打网球。像运动俱乐部、语言社团这样的课后活动也很受欢迎。每个学年通常都会有参观博物馆的活动和露营活动，比如在郊外爬山和徒步等。去年我们的一群同学甚至去了日本。校园派对、体育活动日，校园戏剧也很流行。学校每学期召开一次家长会，教师与家长可以讨论一下我们的进步情况。

那么，我最喜欢学校生活的哪部分呢？英语、化学、音乐、运动俱乐部、校园戏剧……最重要的,是我的朋友们!

Module 3 Life now and then Unit 1 They sometimes work harder.3.Listen and read.Then choose the correct answer.妈妈:越来越晚了, 贝蒂。你的作业做得怎么样了？ 贝蒂:快完了！妈妈，你认为现在的生活比过去好吗？

妈妈:当然了。

贝蒂:我也这么觉得。现在的人们比过去富有了，也比过去长寿了。妈妈:确实是这样。我们现在对医学懂得更多了，知道怎样治疗普通的疾病，所以不那么害怕生病了。但是人们锻炼得也不如从前那样多了。

贝蒂:我想那是因为越来越多的人购买了汽车的缘故，他们走路少了，骑车也少了。

妈妈:有些人认为过去的生活比现在更简单、更健康。有时财富越多意味着身体越不健康。当私家车的数量翻倍时，污染也翻倍了，甚至更严重。

贝蒂:那工作呢？人们还像五十年前那么辛苦地工作吗？

妈妈:是的，有时候更辛苦。人们总说他们没有足够的休闲时间！你为什么不去问问我们的邻居李老太太呢？她已经七十多岁了，生活的变化都看在眼里。

贝蒂:那是个好主意。我去问问她。

妈妈:记得说话大点儿声，她现在有点儿耳背了。

Unit 2 I think life is better today.2.Read the passage and take notes on what Mrs Li says about the points in Activity

过去与现在的生活

李老太太已经70岁了。她一辈子都生活在北京。我向她了解了过去各现在的生活状况。你过去的生活是什么样的？ 我们家信在一间小房子里，没有电灯，只能点蜡烛。我父亲是个邮递员。无论严寒酷暑，他经常每天在户外工作12小时。母亲在遇到父亲之前是个农家女。她是一位善良而慈爱的母亲。她没有外出工作。我家有五个孩子，照料我们比做一份全职工作还要辛苦。

我还记得当时家里的饭菜。食物很简单。我们一年只能吃一两次肉。我没被送去上学是因为家里负担不起，还因为我是个女孩。

生活发生了怎样的变化？

现在家庭成员比过去少了。如今大部分人只有一个孩子！女性的角色也发生了变化。我女儿真的很幸运。她接受了良好的教育，婚后还能上班工作。我乐意看到她每天忙忙碌碌地工作，但是有时候我也感受到孤独，因为她不能常来看我。

如今出行变得更便利了。我小时候去哪里都要走路，或者有时候骑自行车。现在到处都能坐公交车，还有地铁。你们年轻人还能坐飞机飞往世界各地。但是有一件事情我不喜欢，就是交通比以前拥挤多了。过个马路都很费劲。

当然，我小的时候还没有电视。现在我非常喜欢看电视。好节目太多了，比如京剧和老电影。但是也有些表演对我来说太嘈杂了。

总的来说，我认为今天的生活更好了。我们吃得更好，也更长寿了。

Module 4 Rules and Suggestions Unit 1 You must be careful of falling stones.3.Listen and read.Now choose the correct answer.杰克逊老师：好，请注意听一下！出发之前，我还要给你们提几条注意事项和建议。

全体学生：好的，杰克逊老师。

杰克逊老师：首先，大家是否都穿上结实的鞋和厚袜子了？ 全体学生：是的，杰克逊老师。

杰克逊老师：好的，无论何时在山上徒步，你们都应该穿戴恰当。对了，你们千万别墅瞳得离山路边缘太近，因为可能会掉下去摔伤，清楚了吗？ 全体学生：清楚了。

杰克逊老师：还有，大家要集体行动，这样就不会走失了。一定不能一个人单独离开。

全体学生：我们不会的，杰克逊老师。大明：我们现在能吃点东西吗？我都快饿死了！

杰克逊老师：不行，大明！你一小时前才吃过早饭。我们出发吧，中午我们会停下赤野餐。别一次把水都喝完了。过一会儿你们可能还需要喝水。

贝蒂：我们可以攀岩吗？

杰克逊老师：不行。并且一定要注意落石。好的，这就出发吧，沿路走，穿过小溪，然后我们就…… 大明:……吃午饭? 杰克逊老师：……爬到山顶上再吃午饭.来吧,我来带路。刚开始这条路还算平坦，因为是条直路，但是很快就要变得难走起来了。

Unit 2 We must keep the camp clean.2.Read the passage and answer the questions.当心！附近有熊！第一天晚上，步行了大约八个小时之后，我们三个人都累了，很快进入了梦乡。

半夜时分，外面传来奇怪的声响。但当我向帐篷外张望时，却什么也没发现。

早上，我起来做早饭，发现食品袋被打开了。“是熊干的，”乔说。“我们今晚得把吃的挂到树上去。”

当天晚些时候，我们在一条溪流旁美丽的田野上宿营。我们支起帐篷，沉沉睡去。

当天夜里，那几只熊又来了，这次它们从树上取走了食物。

“挂得不够高。熊会爬树，它们老远就能闻到食物的味道。”本说道。“我们必须保持露营地的干净整洁，”我说，“熊可能会认为我们的垃圾也是食物。”

“好吧，把这儿清理一下，然后再上路。我们还应该多弄出些声响，如果那些熊知道我们在哪里，可能就不会靠近了，”本说。

“但是如果你看到一头熊，”本说，“你千万别做出任何突然的举动或发出声响。最重要的是不要跑，在森林里没有人比熊跑得更快。记住，我们可没有枪来保证安全。

那天晚上，我们睡下了……或者说我们努力想要入睡。第二天，我们11点左右停下来休息。别人休息时，我跑到森林里散步。

突然，我看到一只小熊在玩树枝和石头，它看上去那么柔软而且容易亲近，我现在还记得当时在想“我要是伸出手的话，就能摸着它。”

一声巨吼从我身后传来。

我一动不动地站着。甚至连头都没转一下。又是一声巨吼。小熊抬起头看了看，朝我跑过来。我的脸变得苍白，它从我身边跑过去，跑进了森林。

有好几分钟我一动都不敢动。然后慢慢地，我转过身来，看到小熊和它壮硕的妈妈迈步走开。

我以从未有过的速度跑回朋友们身边。

之后的十天中，每当听到突然的声响，我都会心惊胆战。

Module 5 Look after yourself Unit 1 We’d better get you to hospital.3.Listen and read.Now complete the accident report.贝蒂:我累了，杰克逊老师。

杰克逊老师:我们等等其他人吧，他们几分钟后就会赶上来的。贝蒂:谁掉队了？

杰克逊老师:托尼和大明。他们总是在队尾。我原以为大家都商量好了，要一起走呢。

贝蒂:他们走得比我们慢。杰克逊老师:我觉得要下雨了，我回去找找他们。

托尼:（走近）快来帮忙啊！是大明，他出事了。他跑着下台阶时摔倒了，他磕到头了，腿也疼，我觉得他的腿摔断了。

杰克逊老师:他什么时候摔倒的？

托尼:大约10分钟之前。

杰克逊老师:嗯，告诉我他在哪儿……他在那儿！嘿，大明，你感觉怎么样？

大明:我的腿疼，而且看不清楚。我不会变瞎吧？

杰克逊老师:不会，你只是磕了头，膝盖也摔破了，你腿上有血。脚能动吗？

大明:能。哎哟！但是我没法走路。

杰克逊老师:我们最好送你去医院，我来打手机求助。

大明:伤势严重吗？我还能活下去吗？

杰克逊老师:当然能，没什么大事。托尼，告诉大家取消徒步活动。

Unit 2 Get off the sofa!2.Read the passage and match the rules with the pictures.健康生活五原则

由于有了更完善的医疗保健服务，大多数人较以往生活得更健康、更长寿。现在出生的人的寿命有望比出生于19世纪的人长35年。人们甚至预测将来会有越来越多的人庆祝他们的百岁生日。下面是健康生活的五条原则。1． 离开沙发！的确，坐在沙发上看电视是件舒服的事。但是医生说你应该离开沙发。要保持健康，你每天至少应该走10000步。过去，人们的工作需要更多的体力劳动。他们往往每天得走上好几英里。农民在地里干活的同时也在锻炼身体。想一想：你现在的运动量和他们过去一样多吗？ 2． 吃健康的食品！

吃新鲜、天然的食物很重要，比如水果和蔬菜。快餐是不健康的，你只能偶尔吃点儿。吃过多的不健康食品会损害你的健康。3． 保证休息！

婴儿时期，我们夜里大部分时间都在睡觉。青少年就不像婴儿需要那么多的睡眠了，但保证每晚8小时左右的睡眠还是很重要的。周末的时候，你的时间会比较充裕，所以不要只顾着和朋友一起玩，也要注意休息。4． 不要焦虑，开心起来！

许多人相信，心情愉悦对我们的整体健康状态很重要。因为学校生活、考试或者交友上的困难，青少年的生活也并非无忧无虑。如果你因为某事而感到焦虑，去和父母或老师说说吧！5． 拒绝吸烟！

是的，你早料到我会谈这个！这一点非常重要。吸烟的行为并不酷。吸烟危害很大，几乎会损害你身体的每一个部位。想想你的家人和朋友们的感受吧，也想想抽烟将给你的健康带来的影响。

Module 6 Eating together Unit 1 When is the school-leavers’ party 3.Listen and read.Now complete the notes.玲玲:毕业派对什么时候举行？

贝蒂:看看校历吧！5月30日举行。我们都接到了邀请。大明:实际上，我被选去负责播放舞曲啦。

托尼:他们还让我带些汽球，为派对画几幅画。

贝蒂:老师让每个人都准备一道自己国家的传统菜肴。

玲玲:我们能在学校做吗？

贝蒂:可以在学校食堂加热一下，但应该在家做好。你打算做什么？

玲玲:酸辣汤，是用鸡肉和蔬菜做的。

贝蒂:但请柬上说的是手抓食品！也就是说用手拿着吃的，而不是用刀叉或勺子。

玲玲:哦，这样的话，汤不行。你准备做什么呢？ 贝蒂:干酪汉堡包，是用汉堡和奶酪做成的。

托尼:你呢，大明？

大明:饺子。我奶奶做的饺子最好吃。

贝蒂:你奶奶也被邀请参加派对了吗？

大明:唔，我知道你说这话的意思。托尼，你带什么来？ 托尼:用奶酪、番茄和火腿做成的英国传统比萨。贝蒂:比萨饼不是英国的！它是意大利人发明的！

托尼:但是在英国到处都可以吃到啊。大明:比萨饼在中国也越来越受欢迎啦！

Unit 2 Knives and forks are used for most Western food 2.Read the passage and answer the questions.入乡随俗

我们常说“入乡随俗”。因此吃西餐的时候，也要按照西方人的习惯来用餐。下面是关于与西方人一起就餐时的一些常识，或许你需要稍作了解。

在一些西方国家，午饭通常要到下午1点左右才吃。晚饭时间在晚上7点左右甚至更晚。在西班牙，下午3点吃午饭，晚上10点吃晚饭是很常见的！

开始用餐时，法国人会说“Bon appétit(祝你好胃口)”，意大利人则说“Buon appetito(请尽情享用)”。但是英语中没有类似的说法。“Enjoy your meal(请慢慢享用吧)”这样的话通常也只是上餐的人才会说。

大多数西餐使用刀叉作餐具。人们左手拿叉，右手拿刀，用叉子按住食物再用刀来切开。喝汤时使用勺子。不过，有些食物是可以直接用手拿着吃的，比如鸡翅和汉堡包。

进餐时，主人可能会请你自己取食物（通常女士优先），并告诉你“请随意”。也可能有人会递给你食物，并问你：“你想要些……吗?” 你可以接受，并表示“谢谢你”。如果说有人给你递了你不喜欢吃的东西，你只需说比如“不好意思，我不吃肉”或者“我不吃鱼”就可以了。没有人会生气的。如果别人给你的食物太多，你吃不下，你只需说“谢谢，不要了，味道很好，但是我吃饱了”。

记住，上菜时你要表示对每个菜都喜欢。吃完后也要表示你很享受这顿美餐，这是一种礼貌。

有时候很难确定什么时候算是吃完饭了。如果西方朋友邀请你就餐，上完最后一道菜之后很久他们还希望你能坐在桌帝聊天。吃完了就离开是不礼貌的。

这里的原则是：留意观察别人，别人怎么做你就怎么做。

Module 7 English for you and me Unit 1 Have you ever been to an English corner? 3.Listen and read.Now decide…

贝蒂: 你觉得今年自己的英语取得了多少进步，玲玲？

玲玲:我觉得进步很大。总之，我希望我的英语足够好，能够考试顺利。英语还是我学得最好的学科呢，尽管我的英语口语不是那么好。

贝蒂:看得出来你很乐于学英语。有些人觉得英语太难学了，需要投入很多的精力才能学好。

玲玲:英语入门难，但如果坚持下去，很快你就能取得进步，并发现学习中的很多乐趣。我希望明年能继续进步。贝蒂:我觉得你已经做得很好了。你去过英语角吗？

玲玲:你指的是人们常去练英语的那些俱乐部吗？我原来一直以为，这些俱乐部是为那些英语已经说得很好的人开办的。

贝蒂:呃，我曾经去过一次英语角，那里也有一些人英语说得不太好。但他们乐于尝试，其他的人，包括英国人和美国人，也乐于同他们交谈。

玲玲:我不必去英语角，我们一见面就可以说英语呀。

贝蒂:对，我一直都很愿意和你用英语交谈。同时，你还能帮我学汉语。我想将来汉语会越来越流行的。

Unit 2 We all own English.2.Read the passage and answer the questions.英语属于谁？

全世界大约有4亿人讲英语，他们中的大多数分布在美国、英国、加拿大、澳大利亚、新西兰和南非。在加纳、印度和新加坡，虽然日常生活中人们也使用其他语言，但还是把英语作为一种工作语言来使用，例如，在老板与秘书之间，在医生与病人之间。在中国和许多其他国家，英语是孩子们在校学习的最主要的外语，因为他们长大以后，很可能会遇到来自其他国家的人们。他们需要一种共通的语言来彼此交流。目前全世界约四分之一的人口都在使用英语，无论你走到世界的哪个角落，都很有可能碰到说英语的人。

各地都有说英语的原因是，在19世纪，英语成为了世界贸易用语。在20世纪，美国通过报纸、电视和电影将英语传播到世界各地，现在，英语已经成为国际旅游、自然科学、工业以及近年新兴的信息技术和因特网的通用语言。

了解这一点也很重要：英语从其他语言中借用了许多词语，比如：来自法语的restaurant，来自阿拉伯语的zero，来自意大利语的piano，以及来自汉语的tofu。

英语的重要性会延续下去吗？随着中国的不断壮大，许多人认为到21世纪中叶汉语将会使用得像英语一样普遍。越来越多的欧洲学校在教一些欧洲语言的同时，也教授中文这门外语。然而，多数人仍然认为，至少在未来二三十年里，英语仍会是世界上使用得最为广泛的语言。

那么英语属于谁呢？答案是使用英语的每个人——英国人、印度人、中国人等共同将英语变成了一种丰富的语言。虽然我们说着各式各样的英语，但我们都是国际俱乐部的一员。英语属于我们大家。

Module 8 My future life Unit 1 Here’s to our friendship!3.Listen and read.Now complete the notes.贝蒂: 你看起来很可爱，玲玲！

玲玲: 谢谢，你看上去也很漂亮。你的手提包不错。

贝蒂:这是我妈妈的。你在派对上玩得高兴吗？

玲玲:高兴，但我还是觉得有点伤感。不知道我们大家什么时候才会回到这里再次相聚。我会想念你们大家的。

托尼:是的，我们会彼此想念的。

玲玲:嘿，托尼，你都已经把各国国旗挂到墙上了！它们让大厅看上去很漂亮。

托尼:看起来还行，对吧？听这曲子，节奏太棒了！贝蒂:你说什么？噢，是的，就是有点吵。玲玲:你打算在中国呆很长时间吗，托尼？

托尼:希望如此。即使我回到英国，我也会回来看你们大家的。

玲玲:你呢，贝蒂？

贝蒂:我要在这里读完中学，但是我还是想有一天能回到家乡。你有什么计划，大明？

大明：我想成为……一名英语老师！

托尼:很适合你！来，我们拿点吃的吧，菜单上都有什么？

贝蒂:来个热狗怎么样？或者薄煎饼？我们还有苹果汁呢。

托尼：让我们举杯，为我们的友谊，为我们每一个人，为未来干杯！

所有人：干杯！

贝蒂:嗯，不好意思，现在我要发表演讲了。

Unit 2 I know that you will be better at maths.2.Look at the picture and choose the answers to the questions.There may be more than one answer.Now read the passage and check.亲爱的校长、各位老师、各位家长和同学们，能被大家选出来作这次演讲，我深感自豪。

我带来了三支玫瑰，一支红的、一支黄的、一支白的。这些玫瑰用来表达我对三组人的谢意，因为我从他们那里学到了最重要的三件事。这三件事是友谊、努力和信任。

我要把红玫瑰献给我的朋友们。我刚入校的时候，汉语不好，经常犯一些很可笑的错误。一次，我想说“谢谢”，却说成了“xiaxia”, 很自然地，有些人笑了起来，我感到很尴尬。但是我的朋友们并不是在嘲笑我。他们教我用中文表达很多事情，还好心地邀请我参加他们的活动。多亏有他们的热心帮助，现在我的汉语好多了，我们也成为了朋友。所以，现在让我再说一次“谢谢”吧，谢谢你们大家给我的帮助。

我将白玫瑰献给我的老师们，他们教我明白了不努力就不会成功的道理。刚刚开始跑800米的时候，我总是最后一个，只想放弃。但体育老师黄老师帮助了我。她陪我一起跑，并对我说：“如果你放弃了，那么你才真的失败了！”现在我仍然跑得不够快，但我学会了要尽力争取，不仅仅在跑步的时候，而是做任何其他事都是如此。

我把黄玫瑰献给爸爸妈妈，感谢他们让我懂得爱就是一种信任。当年我想学小提琴时，爸爸告诫我，让我好好学数学。我很失望。后来，在过生日的那天早上，我醒来发现床边放着一把美丽的小提琴。爸爸给我留了一张便条：“我相信你的音乐会学得不错。我也知道你的数学会有进步。”

对于过去的三年，我相信你们大家都有着各自美好的记忆，以及你们因此想要感谢的人，让我们大家起立，一起说一声：“感谢你们，朋友们、老师们和家长们！我们爱你们！”

He's staying with his family in the UK, and flying back tomorrow.The Daming: flights were late today.Betty: Why is travel so difficult in winter? Well, it's the busiest season in China because of Spring Festival.Where did Lingling: you go, Daming? We flew to Hong Kong—and the flight was late!But we took the boat to Daming: Landau Island and went to Disneyland.Lingling: How about you, Betty? We had quite a good time in Beijing.We went sightseeing by bus and by taxi.And last weekend, we took a tour by coach to the Summer Palace and Betty: went for a long walk.And now, better get back to work...We've got exams at the end of the Daming: term.Betty: Yes, but there are plenty of fun things to do this term...the school trip...Lingling:...and the school leavers' party...Daming:...the visit to the English-speaking theatre in Beijing...Lingling: And our trip to Los Angeles!We'll have a great time!

Module 1 Unit 2 Look at the phrases from the passage.What do you think the passage will be about?

%

a.1...his first long trip by train...b.2...leaving his village and his home...c.4...sitting in Lin's seat.d.6 Slowly the young man stood up...e.5 This young man has the right ticket...f.3 With tears in his eyes...Read the passage and number the phrases in the order they happen.Excuse Me.You're Sitting in My Seat!capital.Now it was in front of him, to set off soon.He looked at his brother.“Don't forget where you come from, little brother,” Jin said.“And watch your bags carefully.” Lin nodded, unable to speak.This was his first long trip by train at the start of his new life, leaving his village and his home for the last 16 years.He held Jin in his arms.With tears in his eyes, Jin pushed Lin away.“Go, brother.Write to us as soon as you get there, OK?” Lin jumped onto the train.There were people and bags everywhere.He pushed past them towards his seat.A young man was sitting in Lin's seat.He was wearing jeans and a very smart jacket, and was smoking a cigarette.What should he do? Six pairs of eyes looked at Lin, while the man looked out of the window.“Sir, you're sitting in my seat,” Lin said, with a nervous smile.The other people watched with interest.The man didn't turn to look at Lin, but just looked out of the window.“Excuse me.I have a ticket with the number of the seat you're sitting in!” Lin said in a stronger voice.“I also have a ticket with that number—though it is in another car.Besides, I was here first,” said the man, without moving his head.Though he was sitting, he looked very tall and strong.Lin looked at the other passengers for help.“But...” he started to say.“But what?” The man turned and looked at Lin.“I'm not moving.” Finally a man wearing glasses spoke in a loud voice.“This young man has the right ticket for that seat.You should move.” Lin felt brave.“See? Please move.I've got a long way to go.” “How long?” the young man asked.“To the last stop, Beijing.” “I'm getting off before you.Then you can have my seat.” “Where is that?” asked Lin.“Hangzhou.” Lin thought Hangzhou was far away.“It's seven hours away from here,” the man with glasses said.“Even if it's only 10 minutes, you should move.” Slowly the young man stood up, dropped his cigarette on the floor, and disappeared down the train.Module 2 Unit 1 Listen and read.Betty: Hey, Tony!How was the UK? Tony: Guess what!I saw Sally in London.Lingling: My pen friend Sally? Tony: Yes, Sally, the girl who visited us last year and played in the orchestra.Lingling: Oh, that's fantastic!How is she?

Tony: Thirty.Lingling: Wow!Most classes have got a computer and Internet.And there are a few science laboratories, and a large library.And there's a swimming pool and Tony: a huge sports ground.Lingling: But Sally likes music.Tony: Well, there's a music room, too.And they have a hall for concerts.Lingling: Which school is better, our school or Park School?

Tony:...but I prefer our school!Daming: I bet we're even better than Park School at English!Lingling: Well, anyway, we're all going to get top grades for English!

Module 2 Unit 2 Read the passage and write a short title for each photo.My School Life was 11.If I pass my exams next year, I'll stay here until I'm 18.Park School is a secondary school, about 20 minutes by bike away from home.Before I came here, I went to primary school, near my home.I started primary school when I was five and stayed there for six years.The schoolday is from 8:45 a.m.to 3:15 p.m.We spend the first 10 minutes in our classroom while our teacher checks which pupils are present or absent.Then everyone goes to the main hall.There our head teacher makes a speech and tells us any news about the school.Lessons begin at 9:05 and last for an hour.We have a break at 11:05 until 11:20, then another lesson, then lunch for an hour.We have two more lessons before school finishes.This year I have 11 subjects: maths, biology, chemistry, French, history, geography, music and IT, PHSE, ADT and PE(these stand for Information Technology;Personal Health and Safety Education;Art, Design and Technology and Physical Education).Fortunately, we don't have exams in every subject.PHSE is about the dangers of drugs and smoking, among other things.In ADT we also do things like learning to cook as well as drawing and design.Some people can do Italian and Spanish instead of French, but no one is learning Chinese...yet!PE involves physical exercise, basketball, training in the gym and swimming—we're really lucky to have a swimming pool.I took exams when I was 7, 10, and 14 years old.Next year I take my exams in eight subjects, and then I can do between three and five subjects for the exams in my final year.We have a large sports ground where we play football, tennis and do athletics both during and after school hours.After-school activities, such as sports clubs and language societies are popular, too.During the school year there are usually visits to museums and galleries, and to camps for activities, such as climbing and cycling in the country.There are parties and discos and a sports day, and the school play is a really important event.Once a term, there is a parents' meeting, so our parents and teachers can talk about our progress.What's the best thing about school? English, history, music...and my friends.What's the worst thing? Homework...and exams!

Module 3 Unit 1 Listen and read.Betty's mum: It's getting late, Betty.Nearly finished!I'm doing a composition: Is life today better or worse than Betty: it was 50 years ago? Betty's mum: And what do you think? I think it's better.The most important difference is that people are Betty: healthier today, and they live longer than they did in the past.That's true.The advantage is that we know more about medicine today.Betty's We're better at preventing illness.But people don't eat as well as in the mum: past, and don't take as much exercise as they did.Betty: I suppose that's because public transport is much better today.Yes, I agree.People walk or use their bikes less, and they're lazier.Faster Betty's transport also makes more pollution.And that makes life more dangerous mum: and less healthy.What about work? People don't have to work as hard as they worked 50 Betty: years ago.Betty's Yes, but no one ever says they have too much free time!I also think mum: schoolchildren today work harder than we ever did.Betty: Yes, but I really want to do my best.Betty's mum: Why don't you ask Mrs Li downstairs? She's seen how life has changed.That's a good idea.Talking of free time, don't forget I'm going on the Betty: school trip next month, and the theatre visit.Betty's mum: Good!You'll be more relaxed and less nervous before your exams.Module 3 Unit 2 Read this sentence from the passage.It's an example of a main point.My parents, my sister and three brothers lived in a small house beside Example: a restaurant.Main point: Families were bigger in the past..Now choose the correct main point for these examples from the passage.1.My sister...left school when she was only 12...My sister no longer wanted to go to school.The school leaving age was lower in the past.(T)2.Looking after us was a full-time job, so she stayed at home.Married women were too busy at home to continue working.(T)It wasn't necessary for the mother to work.3....my mother never bought ready-made food as people do today.There wasn't any fast food in the past.The food we eat today isn't as healthy as it was.(T)4.My parents liked him, and thought he came from a good family...People from good families were always kind.Parents usually decided who their children married.(T)5.Yes, there are lots more buildings and so much more traffic!Cars are cheaper today.There was less traffic in the past.(T)

Module 4 Unit 1 Listen and read.Lingling: I'm really looking forward to the Shakespeare play.Betty: Me too!And the school trip to the Great Wall.Lingling: Yes, but I need a thick jacket, and some warm gloves and socks.Betty: In May? Lingling: I get really cold.Betty: OK.Let's go shopping!How about that new shopping centre in Wangfujing? You know, turn Lingling: left and go along Wangfujing, and it's on the right.Sure.We'll go by bus, OK? And have you decided what to wear to the Betty: school leavers' party? Lingling: I've got a really nice long dress.What about you? I'll probably wear a dress, too, but I need some shoes.OK, I'll meet Betty: you in front of school at two o'clock this afternoon.(Later.)Betty: How about this jacket? Lingling: It's the right size but it's a bit bright.Betty: Let's see if they have one in blue.Where's the shop assistant? Lingling: It's that girl with long hair over there.Excuse me!Shop assistant: Can I help you? Betty: Yes, do you have this jacket in blue? Shop No, I don't think so.But we've got some overcoats over here.Come assistant: this way.Betty: No, she doesn't want an overcoat.Lingling: Hey, I really like these shoes!Betty: Oh, take a look at that amazing skirt!Lingling: I think we're going to be here for some time.Module 4 Unit 2 Read the passage and find out what the words and expressions mean.big name;designer clothes;logo;look cool

Looking Cool

when you go shopping for clothes? Do you choose 1.something fashionable...or comfortable? Do you like to look different? Or do you wear the same clothes as your friends? Do you go for this year's colours? Is it the logo—the company symbol—that catches your attention? Or maybe film stars are wearing these clothes? What helps you choose the clothes you like? Everyone spends money on clothes, and everyone has their personal look.The best-known clothing companies sell their “designer” clothes all over the world.But the number of these big name companies is in fact very small, and the clothes they make are more expensive than the clothes made by less 2.well-known companies.Many people even prefer them to cheaper clothes.Why? Many young people today care about the way they look.They often buy “designer” clothes because they think they look cool.Then the less well-known companies make clothes which look the same.But they don't sell as well 3.because they don't have the logo.People also think designer clothes are better made.For example, many people think the right running shoes will make you run faster or play better.Of course, this is not always true.It's the training—not the trainers—that improves your speed or your score.But that's not the point.People believe that it's true...4.and then buy the shoes.The big companies only want to make a lot of money.Above all, designer clothes are more popular because of clever advertising.All of the international companies spend millions of dollars every year to make 5.us buy their clothes.And they succeed!Most people dress in a way that shows off their personality.But if some of us buy expensive clothes just to look cool, what does that say about us? Maybe it's 6.just clever advertising.So next weekend, think about the clothes you put on.What's the logo on your trainers? Who made your jeans? And how many of your friends wear the same clothes as you do? And then think that maybe some of us could spend our 7.money better.Module 5 Unit 1 Listen and read.Mr OK, listen up!Before we can enjoy ourselves on the Great Wall, there are Jackson: a few rules and suggestions.OK? All: Yes, Mr Jackson.Mr First, you must keep to the path.You mustn't walk along the edge Jackson: because you might fall and hurt yourself.Is that clear? All: Yes.Mr And you have to keep together.You mustn't go off on your own, because Jackson: you might get lost.All: No, Mr Jackson.Daming: Can we have something to eat now? I'm starving!No, you can't, Daming!You only had breakfast an hour ago.I think we Mr should start walking, and then stop at noon for our picnic.But you Jackson: shouldn't drink all the water, because you may need some later.Betty: Can we go rock climbing? Mr Yes, you can, but you must use ropes.You have to think about personal Jackson: safety!And you must have the right shoes.OK, I think that's all.Let's go down this path, and then we can cross the stream and climb up to the top of that mountain.Then we can take a look across the countryside...Daming:...and have lunch? Mr...and then walk along that part of the wall, up there.Come on!I'll lead Jackson: the way.Daming: I feel tired already.I may need a rest very soon.Module 5 Unit 2 Look at the picture and answer the questions.1.What do you think the bear is doing? 2.What do you think the people in the tent should do?

%

Read the passage and answer the questions.1.What were the three people doing in Yellowstone Park? 2.How much do they know about bears?

3.Where do you think is the best place to keep food safe from bears? 4.What was the noise behind the writer?

5.Do you think their stay in the park was a success?

Watch Out!Bears About!hours.We soon fell asleep.In the middle of the night, there was a strange noise outside.But when I looked out of the tent, there was nothing to see.In the morning, I got up to make breakfast.The bag of food was open.“Bears,” said Joe.“We should hang the food in a tree tonight.” Later that day we stopped in a beautiful valley by a stream.It was very peaceful, and we fell asleep listening to the sound of water.During the night the bears came back.This time they took the food from the tree.“How did they do that?” I asked.“Not high enough.Bears can climb trees.They can smell food from a distance.We should pick up the rubbish, too.” The first rule of camping is to keep a clean camp site.You can't leave anything which bears might think is food.“OK, let's tidy the site up, and move on.Oh, and we should make lots of noise, too.If they know where we are, they may not come any closer,” said Joe.“If you see a bear,” said Joe, “you mustn't move or make any gesture.And above all, you mustn't run.No one can run faster in the forest than a bear.” We went to sleep...or we tried to.The next day we stopped at midday for something to eat, and while the others were resting, I went for a walk in the forest.Suddenly, I saw a baby bear playing with some sticks and stones.He looked so friendly, and I remember thinking, “If I reach out, I can just touch him.” There was a loud noise behind me.I stood very still.I didn't even turn my head.There was another loud noise, and I still couldn't see what was happening.The baby bear looked up, and ran past me into the woods.I stayed in the same position for five minutes, maybe more.Then slowly I turned round, and on the hillside about 300 metres away I saw the baby bear and his huge mother.I have never run so fast, back to my friends.For the next 10 days, every time there was a sudden noise, my blood went cold.Module 6 Unit 1

Lingling: They were walking more slowly than us.Mr And look at those clouds!I think it's going to rain.I'll go back and look for Jackson: them.Betty: Wait a minute!I can hear someone.Tony: Help!Lingling: It's Tony.Where have you been? It's Daming.He has had an accident.He was running along the wall when he tripped and fell over the edge.He's cut his head;his shoulder hurts Tony: and I think he's broken his leg.Mr Jackson: When did he fall? Tony: About 10 minutes ago.Mr OK, show me where he is.I'll call for help on my mobile.Jackson:(Later)Tony: There he is, lying on the ground!Mr Jackson: Hi, Daming.How do you feel? Daming: My leg hurts, and I feel a bit cold.Tony: And you've cut your knee.There's blood on your leg.Mr Jackson: Can you move your foot? Daming: Yes.Ouch!But I can't walk.Mr Jackson: We had better get you to hospital.Lingling: Will he live? Mr Of course he will!He's got a wound in his leg and he may get a fever but Jackson: it's nothing serious.He'll soon be OK!

Module 6 Unit 2 Look at the pictures.Say what the advantages or dangers are.Picture 1 Picture 2 Picture 3

Read the passage.Which paragraphs describe what you can see in the pictures? Six Rules for a Safe and Healthy Life improvements in both health care and personal safety, most people are living healthier, longer lives.Someone who is born today can expect to live 25 years longer than someone who was born in the 19th century.It's even thought that in the future more and more people will celebrate their hundredth birthday.Here are six rules for a healthy life.1.Be careful!It's dangerous out there!We all know that we shouldn't run across the road in front of the oncoming traffic, or cycle too close to cars.But we're not sure about how to stay safe in the countryside.When you're out walking, you should always go with someone, and tell your parents where you're planning to go.Remember!Climbing may also mean falling—what goes up must come down.Safety rules and advice are there to help you, not to make life less fun.2.Don't be a couch potato!Sure, it's comfortable to sit on the couch and watch.But experts say you should walk at least 10,000 steps every day to keep fit.In the past, people's jobs required more physical effort.When farmers were working in the fields, they were keeping fit at the same time.Think about it: do you get the same amount of exercise today as they did in the past? 3.Watch your diet!It's important to eat plenty of the right things, above all, fruit, vegetables, and to see fast food or sweets as something very special—maybe just now and then.The wrong diet means you'll put on weight, one of the fastest ways to an unhealthy life.4.Rest up while you can!When we were babies, we slept for much of the day—if our parents were lucky!Teenagers don't need as much sleep but it's important to get about eight hours' sleep.At weekends, you've got more time, so use it not just for your friends, but for rest, too.5.Don't worry.Be happy!Many doctors believe that happiness is important for our general health.If you're worried about something, talk to your parents or your teacher.6.Say no...to smoking and drugs!Yes, you knew I was going to say this!But it's so important.More teenagers damage their health through smoking and taking drugs than any other dangers.Think about the effect on your family and friends, and think about its effect on you and your health.Happy living!

Module 7 Unit 1

Look at the party invitation and answer the questions.Invitation You're invited to the School Leavers' Party on Saturday 30th May at 5 p.m.in the school hall

Bring a traditional dish—“finger food”

Music and dancing 1.What's a school leavers' party? 2.What's a traditional dish?

3.What do you think “finger food” is? 4.What else is there to do at the party? 5.Listen and read.Lingling: When's the school leavers' party? After the visit to the play by Shakespeare.It'll be held on 30th May.We're Betty: all invited.Daming: In fact, I've been chosen to look after the dance music.Tony: And I have been asked to decorate the hall.And everyone has been told to prepare a traditional dish from our own Betty: countries.Will we be allowed to cook it at school, or must it be made at home, and Lingling: brought here? I suppose it can be heated up in the school kitchen, but it should be cooked Betty: at home.What are you going to make? Lingling: Suanla tang, I guess.Betty: What's that? Lingling: Hot and sour soup.It's made with chicken or pork and vegetables.But the invitation says finger food!That means you have to eat it with your Betty: fingers.Lingling: Oh, soup's no good, then.You need a spoon.What about you? Betty: Hamburgers, with cheese in a bread roll.Tony: And you, Daming? Daming: Jiaozi!The best jiaozi in China are made by my grandmother!Betty: Is she invited to the school leavers' party, too? Daming: Hm, I see what you mean.What about you, Tony? Tony: A traditional English pizza with cheese, tomato and ham.Betty: Pizza isn't English!It was invented in Italy, not England!Tony: But pizza can be eaten everywhere in England.Betty: I don't think Shakespeare ate pizza!

Module 7 Unit 2 Read the passage.What are the most surprising pieces of information about meals and eating customs in the West?

Do as the Romans Do saying, “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.” And when you eat Western food, do as the Westerners do.Here are some things you may wish to know about eating together in the West.In the West, lunch is eaten later, always after midday, sometimes at one o'clock.Dinner is served around 7 p.m.or even later.In Spain it's usual to eat lunch at 2 p.m.and dinner at 10 p.m.!At the start of a meal the Chinese usually say “manman chi”.The French say “Bon appetit”, and the Italians say “Buon appetito”.But there's no similar expression in English!“Enjoy your meal” is usually only said by a waiter.For “ganbei”, you can say “Cheers”!Chopsticks are only used when people eat Chinese food.Knives and forks are used for most food.The fork is held in your left hand and the knife in your right, and the food is held with the fork and cut with the knife.Americans often cut all their food first, and then put the fork in their right hand to eat it.Soup is drunk with a spoon.However, there is some food which can be eaten with your fingers, such as chicken legs, seafood, bread and cake.At the start of a meal, if you're the guest, you'll be invited to serve yourself(“Help yourself!”), or your plate will be filled by your host(“Can I serve you?”).If you've been given something you don't like, it should be pushed to the edge of the plate and left.You don't have to say why, but if you feel an explanation is required, just say, “I'm sorry.I can't eat this.” No one will be cross.If you're offered more food, but can't eat any more, just say, “No, thanks.It was delicious, but I've had enough.” Generally, fewer dishes are prepared than in China.It isn't thought to be so important to offer too much food.Finally, it's sometimes difficult to know when the meal is over.If you've been invited to dinner by Western friends, you'll know that you're expected to stay and talk around the dinner table long after the last dish has been brought to the table, and it's thought quite rude if you leave as soon as you finish eating.The golden rule is: Watch the other people.Do as they do.Module 8 Unit 1 Listen and read.Tony'smum: How was the play? Tony: Well, I was pleased to see it, but three hours is a long time to stay still.Tony'smum: Was it in English? Tony: Yes, it was acted by the Beijing English Theatre Company.Tony'smum: What was the best bit? The fight between the two families and their servants!And the actors Tony: who played the roles of Romeo and Juliet were superb!But it's sad at the end, because Juliet loves Romeo, but her father has decided she must marry someone else.So they both decide to kill themselves.Tony'smum: “A pair of star-crossed lovers take their life.” Tony: OK, OK, I'm impressed.Can you recite any more lines? Tony'smum: No, that's all I can remember.Did you have a good seat? Well, it was hard to see the play at the back.The best place to sit is in Tony: the front row.Tony'smum: Could you hear the dialogue? I guessed what they were saying, but their voices weren't very loud.Tony: Daming and Lingling found their accents really difficult to understand.Tony'smum: The best way is to read the play before you see it.Tony: We tried to do that, but there wasn't time.Tony's mum: Did you have anything to eat before you went to the theatre? Tony: No such luck!I was starving!

Module 8 Unit 2 Look at the photo and say what type of entertainment or sport you can see. basketball  jazz  movies ...Think of other words which you can use to talk about the photo. basketball: match, stadium  jazz: concert, band  movies:... Read the passage.Which paragraph describes what you can see in the photo?



The City that Never Sleeps   New York, New York, it's a wonderful town!The Bronx is up and the Battery's down!



(On the Town, by Leonard Bernstein) New York is probably the entertainment capital of the world, and a great place to see the big names and top stars in films, television, theatre and music.Sports fans have plenty of chances to watch some great sport, and the New York nightlife is world-famous. Madison Square Garden is the place to watch the New York Knicks Basketball Team and the Golden Gloves boxing competition.To watch baseball, go to the Yankee Stadium, home of the New York Yankees or Shea Stadium for the Mets. At New York's finest arts cinema, the Film Forum, you can see the latest foreign and American movies.But New York itself is the subject of many movies by directors who come from New York, such as Woody Allen and Martin Scorsese. The great names of jazz have played in the jazz clubs of Greenwich Village, and fans can listen to the stars of today and tomorrow at the world-famous Blue Note. The Metropolitan Opera House is the place to go for opera lovers, but you have to book tickets a long time before you want to go.One of the most important things to see at Christmas is the Nutcracker by the New York City Ballet at Lincoln Centre.Carnegie Hall is well-known for its concerts of all types of music, classical and modern. Broadway is not just a street but an area of New York.There you can see some of the biggest and the best plays and musicals, such as Evita, Cats and The Phantom of the Opera.If you ever come to New York in summer, remember to spend a day in Central Park watching a play by Shakespeare in the open air, with famous actors from Broadway and Hollywood. For lovers of painting, the best plan is to go to the Museum of Modern Art or the Guggenheim Museum. Restaurants can be found everywhere, and are open at all times of the day or night.There have always been a huge number of Italian, Chinese and Japanese restaurants, but now you can eat food from Thailand, Vietnam, India, Burma or the Philippines.Try the Oyster Bar in Grand Central Station for the best seafood in Manhattan. New York's nightlife includes discos, like the Limelight, and night clubs.In fact, it's easy to see why they call it “the city that never sleeps”.Module 9 Unit 1 Listen and read.Betty: How much progress in English do you think you've made this year, Lingling? Not bad.In fact, I think I've achieved a lot, and I'm proud of what I've learnt.I've reached a level which is quite good...and I hope it's good enough for the exams, anyway.Above all, it's the subject that I'm best at, Lingling: although my handwriting could be better.I think you've done really well.Learning a foreign language requires a Betty: certain effort, however easy it is.I don't think it's really difficult to learn English, although it's a language which looks simpler than it actually is.I just hope I can continue to make Lingling: progress next year.Betty: Have you ever been to an English corner? You mean, those clubs where you go to practise your English? I always Lingling: thought they were for people whose English was already quite good.Well, I went to an English corner once, and there were some people whose level was fairly low.But it's good to meet other people who want to learn English, no matter how good their English is.And you can often meet some Betty: people who come from the UK or the USA.Anyway, what I like most is that you can use English wherever you go in Lingling: the world.Betty: But I wonder if there will soon be more people speaking Chinese.Module 9 Unit 2 Work in pairs.Answer the questions.1.How many people in the world speak English? 2.When did English become an international language? 3.Why did English become so popular? 4.When will Chinese become an international language? 5.Who owns English? Now read the passage and check.Who Owns English? is spoken by about 400 million people in Australia, Britain, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, South Africa and the USA.In Ghana, India, Nigeria and Singapore, English is used for government, education and trade, although there are many other languages for everyday use.In China and most other countries, it's the most important foreign language that children will learn at school, because it's essential for tourism, international business, entertainment, radio, television, newspapers, and the Internet.So English is now used by about 1.5 billion people—or a quarter of the world's population, and wherever you go in the world, there is a good chance that someone will speak English.How did this happen? English has not always been the most common language.Until English became important in the 20th century, people who had any education spoke French.What's more, English spelling doesn't give much help with pronunciation, and its grammar is difficult, especially the word order.The reason is that in the 18th century, the UK was a country whose industrial products were sold all over the world.In the 20th century, the USA spread English all over the world through newspapers, television, films and advertising.It's now the common language for international travel, science, industry and in recent years, information technology and the Internet.But it's also important to remember that English has borrowed many words from other languages, either exactly the same word or very similar.It uses restaurant from French, zero from Arabic, piano from Italian, and typhoon, china and many others words from Chinese.Will the importance of English last? Many people think that, if China continues to grow in importance, Chinese will become as common as English by the middle of the 21st century.More and more schools in Europe are teaching Chinese as a foreign language, in place of other European languages.And tourism puts China into the top 10 countries for visitors.But at least for the next 20 or 30 years, English will be the language used most widely.So who owns English? The answer is everyone who speaks it—the English, the Indians and the Chinese all help make it a rich language.It changes every year with new words and expressions.Even though there are differences in grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation and spelling, we all belong to the international English speaking world.We all own English.Module 10 Unit 1 Look at the picture.Answer the questions.1.What's the special event? 2.What is everybody doing? 3.Are you going to have a school leavers' party? 4.Listen and read.Betty: You look lovely, Lingling!Lingling: Thanks, you look great, too.That's a nice handbag.Betty: It's my mother's.Are you enjoying the party? Yes, it's very enjoyable, but I feel a bit sad.I don't know when we'll be Lingling: back in this hall all together again.I'm going to miss my classmates.Yes, but wherever you go, that will happen.Anyway, don't forget we're Tony: going to the USA for the vacation!The hall looks wonderful, Tony.You've hung international flags from the Lingling: floor to the ceiling!Tony: Cool music, Daming!It's got a great beat!Daming: Pardon? Betty: But it's a bit noisy.Lingling: Do you intend to stay in China for long, Tony? Tony: I hope so.And even if I go back to the UK, I'll come back and visit you all.Lingling: What about you, Betty? I'll finish my high school education here, but I want to go back to my home Betty: town one day.What are your plans, Daming? I want to become...an English teacher!Daming:(Laughter.)Tony: Come on!Let's fetch something to eat.What's on the menu? Betty: How about a hot dog? Or some ice cream? A sandwich? Lingling: And we'll always stay friends.Betty: Let's raise our glasses.Here's to our friendship, everyone...and the future!And now, excuse me.I must make a speech!All: Cheers!

Module 10 Unit 2 Think about a speech at a school leavers' party, and answer the questions.There may be more than one answer.1.Who is likely to be thanked?

a.Family.b.Schoolmates.c.Teachers.d.Strangers.2.What is the speaker likely to say?

a.Thank you.b.Good luck!c.I'm sorry.d.Cheers!3.Which personal qualities are likely to be mentioned?

a.Good behaviour.b.Bad temper.c.Patience.d.Good fun.Now read the passage and check.Head teacher, teachers, grandparents, parents and classmates, I'm very proud that I have been chosen to speak to you all today.I'm a bit nervous as I've never made a speech before to so many people, so please forgive me if it shows!As we all know, this is the school leavers' party, and it's time to say goodbye to everyone.We're sorry to leave you at the end of our junior high school education, and we promise that we'll never forget the happy times we have spent in these buildings with you all.I'd like to thank three groups of people for the three things I've learnt while I've been a pupil at our school.The three things are friendship, love and knowledge.The first group is my friends, and what I've learnt is the importance of friendship.We've worked hard together, we've even shared some difficult times together, but we've also had a lot of fun.Many of us will go to new schools and we may not see each other so often in the future.Others will go on to senior high school and continue their close friendships.But friends don't have to see each other all the time.Sometimes the friends you treasure most are the friends you see less often.A life without old friends is like a day without sunshine.We'll always stay in touch.The second group is our parents and grandparents.We thank you for the love you have shown us during our years at junior high school, for making a home where we feel both safe and relaxed, and where we can prepare ourselves for our schooldays.We also thank you for your help with our homework.How many of us owe our good grades to the suggestions you have made during those long evenings? And finally, the third group is our teachers.We can never pay you back for your kindness, your patience, and gift of knowledge which you have offered us.Sometimes you've been strict with us;sometimes you've made us work very hard.But you have always been fair and you'll always be our role models.There's a saying from Ireland which is a favourite of mine: Strangers are only friends you haven't met yet.I couldn't say it better myself.So from the bottom of my heart, I thank you all and wish you success for the future.

课文翻译：第一模块、旅游、第二单元、你坐着我的座位。

对不起，你坐着我的座位。去北京的火车！

林经常梦见火车，梦见去首都，现在它、（火车）就在他的面前，并且马上就要出发，他看着他的哥哥。“别忘了你来自哪里，弟弟。”金说，“要仔细照看你的行李。” 林点点头，说不出话来。

这是他第一次乘火车长途旅行，开始他的新生活，离开他生活了16年的村庄和家。他紧紧拥抱着金，眼中噙满了泪水，金把林推开，“走吧，弟弟，一到那里就给我们写信，好吗？”

林跳上了火车，火车上到处都是乘客和行李，他穿过拥挤的人群来到他的座位。一个年轻人坐在林的座位上，他穿着牛仔裤和一件非常时尚的夹克，正在吸一支烟。他应该怎么办？六双眼睛看着林，然而那个人却朝窗外启动看去。

“先生，你坐着我的座位，”林带着紧张的笑容说，其他人都饶有兴味地看着他。那个人没有回头看林，而且看着窗外。

“对不起，我有你坐的这个座位的票！”林提高了声音说道。“我也有一张这个号的票，尽管它在另外一个车箱，而且，是我先来的，”这个人头也没动地说道。他虽然坐着，但他看上去很高、很壮。林看着其他乘客寻求帮助。“但是...”他开始说话。“但是什么？”那个人回过头看着林说，“我是不会走的。”最后，一个戴着眼镜的男人大声说道，“这个年轻人有这个座位的票，你应该让开。”林觉得勇气倍增。“你看？请让开，我要坐很长时间的火车呢。”“多长？”那个年轻人问道。“到终点站、北京。” “我在你之前下车，然后你可以坐我的座位。”“在哪里？”林问道，”杭州。” 林认为杭州很远。“离这大约七个小时的路程。”那个戴眼镜的人说道，“就算只有十分钟，你也应该让开。”慢慢地那个年轻人站了起来，把烟头扔在地上，然后消失在火车另一端。

课文翻译：我的学校生活

我的名字是萨利、马克斯韦尔，今年15岁。从我11岁起，我就在伦敦的帕克学校读书。

如果我明年通过了考试，我将在这里待到18岁。

帕克学校是一所中学，从我家骑自行车到学校大约要20分钟。我来这里之前，我在我家附近的小学上学。我5岁开始上的小学，在那里待了六年。上学的时间是上午8点45 至下午3点15。

在刚开始的10分钟里我们待在教室，让老师检查学生的出勤情况。然后，所有人都去大厅，在那里，校长发表演讲，并告诉我们学校的一些新闻。9:05 开始上课，一节课一个小时。在11:05 至11:20期间我们休息，然后再上一节课，接着是一个小时的午饭时间。在放学之前我们还要上两节课。今年，我有11门课程：数学、生物、化学、法语、历史、地理、音乐和IT, PHSE,ADT and PE。（这些分别代表信息技术；个人健康；和安全教育；艺术、设计与技术、体育等课程的简称）。幸运的是，我们并不是每门功课都要考试。个人健康和安全教育讲的是毒品和吸烟的危害性，以及其他一些内容。在艺术、设计与技术这门课中我们学习绘画与设计，也学习烹饪。有一些学生不会做法国菜，会做意大利菜和西班牙菜，但是还没有人学做中国菜。体育课包括体育锻炼，篮球以及在体育馆的训练和游泳。我们真的很幸运能有一个游泳池。我在7岁、10岁和14岁的时候参加过考试。明年我得参加八门课程的考试，然后我可以在最后一年参加三至五门课程的考试。我们有一个大的运动场，上学期间或放学之后，我们可以在那里踢足球、打网球和进行体育锻炼。

课外活动像体育俱乐部和语言社团也都很受欢迎。在每个学年中，通常会去博物馆和艺术画廊参观，以及像爬山和在乡间骑自行车这样的野营活动。还有一些聚会、迪斯科和运动日，学校的演出也是一件十分重要的事件。每个学期都有一次家长会，父母和老师可以谈谈我们的进步。

学校里最好的事情是什么？英语、历史、音乐.......和我的朋友们。最坏的事情呢？ 家庭作业......和考试

课文翻译：第3模块，偶而，第二单元，我们不是很富有，但我们很快乐。过去的生活

李太太已经七十多岁了，她一辈子都居住在北京 我向了她有关过去和今天的生活情况。给我讲讲您的父母、兄弟姐妹。

我父母、我姐姐和我的三个弟弟住在一家餐馆旁边的小房子里。我们不是很富裕，但我们很开心。我姐姐是家中最大的孩子，在她年仅十二岁时、就辍学在家帮助妈妈。从我小时候开始，家庭成员就一直发生着变化。在那时候家庭比较大，我的大多数朋友都有很多兄弟姐妹。今天，大多数人只有一个孩子。您的父母都有工作吗？

我爸爸出去工作，他是一家工厂的工人，经常每天工作12个小时。我的妈妈想去工作，她在遇到我父亲之前是一名教师。照顾我们成了她的全职工作，因此她待在家里。今天已婚妇女出去工作是很正常的，但在过去这是少见的。我爸爸一生都做同一个工作，今天，人们更频繁地更换他们的工作。家里的生活是怎么样的呢？

我记得全家吃饭的情景，每天三顿饭，妈妈总是给我们做饭吃。我们不富裕，但是我们能吃饱。食物总是现做的—我妈妈从不像今天的人那样买些已做好的食物，因此，那对我们来说更有益。当然，那时我们没有电视，因此,我们一起做游戏，一起读书，晚上我帮助弟弟做作业。您是在什么地方认识您丈夫的？

我第一次见到他是在六十年前，那时我正骑着车驮着一些沉重的袋子，然后摔了下来。他停下来帮我捡起那些袋子，我的父母都喜欢他，认为他来自一个良好的家庭，因此一年后我们就结婚了，那时我才19岁。现在，很多夫妇相识在工作中，他们只希望他们的父母为他们的结合感到高兴。北京有什么变化吗？

有啊，有那么多的建筑物，有那么多的交通工具。我不敢相信街道上有那么多的汽车。但是我认为到处都是一样的，现在我很少步行了，更多地乘公交车了。

那么你认为今天的生活变得更好了吗？是的，我是这样认为的，我比以前更健康了，我们活得更长，吃得更好了，将来有一天、我还会给你的孙子们讲这些呢！

课文翻译：第4模块、你对事物的看法，第二单元、怎样帮助你选择你喜欢的服装。看上去很酷

当你买衣服时你找什么样的衣服？你是选时尚的.......还是选舒适的？你喜欢看起来与众不同吗？或者你穿跟你的朋友一样的衣服吗？

你追随今年的流行色吗？是不是商标，公司的标志，引起了你的注意？或者也许是电影明星正穿着这样的衣服？是什么帮助你选择你喜欢的衣服？

人人都花钱买衣服，人人都有其个人外貌。是最有名的服装公司在全球销售他们的品牌服装，但是这些知名公司的数目实际上很小，并且他们生产的衣服也比名气小的公司生产的衣服贵得多。很多人甚至更喜欢这些昂贵的衣服，为什么？

现在很多年轻人都关注他们的外表，他们经常买品牌服装是因为他们觉得这些衣服看起来酷，然后，名气小的公司也生产看起来相同的衣服。但是他们销售得不是很好，因为他们没有那个图标。

人们同样认为品牌衣服做工更好。例如，很多人认为好的跑鞋会让你跑得更快或球踢得更好，当然，这并非总是真的，是日常的训练，而不是跑鞋，提高了你的速度或者你的成绩，但这不是关键，人们相信那是真的，然后就去买这种鞋，这些知名公司仅仅想要赚很多钱。

更重要的是，由于巧妙广告的作用，品牌服装更流行了。每年这些国际性的公司花数百万美元做广告，让我们买他们的衣服，而且他们成功了。

大多数人都采用彰显个性的穿着方式。但是，如果我们中的有些人买昂贵的衣服仅仅是为了看上去更酷，那说明了什么，？或许只是聪明的广告起了引导消费的作用。因此下个周末，想想你穿的衣服。你的跑鞋上有什么图标，你的牛仔裤是哪个厂家的？有多少朋友和你穿同样的衣服，然后想一想，或许我们中的有些人可以更理

智地花钱。

第5模块，规则和建议，第二单元，你们必须不动。当心！附近有熊！

在第一个晚上，我们三个人经过了大约八个小时的跋涉后累了，我们很快就睡着了。

半夜，外面传来奇怪的声音。

但当我从帐篷往外看时，什么也没有看到。早上，我起来做早饭，发现食品袋是开着的。“熊，”乔说，“今晚、我们应该把食物挂在树上。” 后来，那天我们在溪边的一个美丽的小峡谷停了下来。那里安静极了，我们伴随着小溪流水的声音睡着了。夜里，熊又来了，这次他们从树上拿走了食物。“他们怎么做到的？”我问道。

“挂的地方不够高，熊会爬树，他们可以从远处闻到食物的味道。我们也应该收拾一下垃圾。”

野营的首要规则就是保持营地的清洁。

你不能留下任何可能让熊认为是食物的东西。

“好吧，我们把野营地清理一下，然后继续走吧，对了，我们应该弄出很多声音来。如果它们知道我们在哪，它们就不会靠得那么近了。” “如果你看见一只熊，” 乔说，“你绝对不能动或者做任何手势，最重要的是，你绝对不能跑，在森林里没有一个人会比熊跑得更快。” 我们去睡觉了...或者说我们尽力去睡。第二天中午，我们停下来吃中饭，当其他的人都在休息的时候，我去森林里散步。突然，我看见一只小熊在玩一些树枝和石头。它看起来那么友好，而且我记得当时想过，“如果我伸出手去，我就可以摸到它了。” 我身后传来巨大的声响。

我站在那里一动不动，甚至没有转过头去。

身后又有一声巨响，我仍然看不到发生了什么事情。那只小熊抬起头来看了看，从我身边跑进入了森林。我在原地站了五分钟或者更久。

然后我慢慢地转过头去，在大约300米远的山坡上，我看见了那只小熊和它庞大的妈妈。我以前所未有的速度飞快地跑回到我朋友那里。

在接下来的十天里，每当我听到一种奇怪的声音，我都会感到非常惊恐。

快乐地生活吧！

课文翻译：第6单元，照看你自己！第二单元，你去哪儿都应有人相伴。安全和健康生活的六条规则

由于医疗护理和人身安全方面的进步，大多数人较以往生活得更健康，更长寿。

今天出生的人有望比19世纪出生的人多活25年，有人甚至在想将来会有越来越多的人庆祝他们的百岁生日，这是健康生活的六条规则。1，注意！外出有危险！

我们都知道，我们不应该在疾驶的车辆面前横穿马路，或者骑自行车时与车辆靠得太近。但是我们对在乡村如何保持安全还不太确定。

当你出门在外时，你应该与他人结伴而行，并告诉你的父母你打算去哪里。

记住，攀爬可能意味着摔落，有上就必有下，安全的规则和建议对你有帮助，而不是减少生活的乐趣。2，不要成为沙发土豆。

当然了，坐在沙发上看电视很舒服，但专家们建议每天至少要走10000步以保证身体健康。

过去，人们的工作需要更多的体力劳动，当农民们在地里劳作的时候，他们也同时在保持着健康。考虑一下，你有过去的人们那样的运动量吗？ 3，注意你的饮食！

要多吃健康的食物，这一点很重要，尤其是水果和蔬菜，同时将快餐或甜点作为调节，偶尔吃点就行了，..错误的饮食会导致体重增加，这是导致不健康生活的最快的方式之一。4.尽量多休息

当我们是孩子的时候，多数时间是在睡觉、如果我们的父母幸运的话，青少年不需要太多的睡眠，但是保证8小的睡眠很重要。

在周末，你会有更多的时间，因此，不要仅仅把它花费在与朋友玩耍上，也要注意休息。5.、不要烦恼，开心一点。

很多医生认为快乐对于我们的整体健康来说很重要，如果你担心什么的话，就要跟你的父母或都是沟通。6.拒绝吸烟和毒品！

是的，你知道我要提到这一点，但是它真的很重要。

越来越多的青少年由于吸烟或吸毒而不是其他的危险损害了他们的健康，想想它对你的家人或朋友带来的影响，然后想想它对你和你的健康的影响。

课文翻译：入乡随俗 俗话说：“入乡随俗。

所以吃西餐时，就要按照西方人那样做。

下面是关于在西方共同进餐的一些常识，或许你想知道一些。在西方，午饭吃得很晚，总是在12点以后，有时到一点钟才吃。

晚饭通常在下午七点甚至更晚，在西班牙通常在下午2点吃午饭，晚饭在10点！中国人在进餐开始时通常说，“慢慢吃” 法国人说，“祝你好胃口” 意大利人说，“祝你好胃口”。但在英语中没有相似的表达方式。通常服务员说，请尽情享用。对于“干杯”、你可以说.“Cheers”。筷子只在吃中餐的时候用。刀和叉子用于大多数食品。

左手拿叉子，右手拿刀子，用叉子按住食物再用刀来切开。美国人经常先切好所有的食物，然后用右手拿叉子吃食物。用勺子喝汤

。然而，有些食物可以用手拿着吃，例如，鸡腿，海鲜，面包和蛋糕。如果你是客人，开始吃饭时，你会被邀请自己慢慢享用、（“请随便吃”），或你的盘子里会被你的主人放满食物、（我能为你服务吗?)如果给了你不喜欢吃的东西，可以把它推到盘子的边缘上不动。你不必说为什么，但是如果你觉得需要解释一下，只要说，“抱歉，我不能吃这个”。

没有人会生气，如果给了你太多的食物，吃不了。只要说，“不用了，食物味道很好，但我吃饱了。”

一般情况下，会提供比在中国少的菜。提供太多的菜被认为不是重要的。

最后，有时很难知道用餐什么时候结束。

如果你被西方人邀请过用餐，你要知道在最后一道菜端上来之后，你仍被希望在桌子旁待一会，聊聊天。如果你一吃完就就离开会被认为很无礼。黄金规则是：看其他的人，照他们那样做。

课文翻译：第8模块，在小镇，第2单元，奇妙的城市。不夜城

纽约，纽约，你是一座神奇的城。

布朗克斯宁静，巴特浮华！摘自伦纳德、伯恩斯坦的音乐剧、《在小镇上》）。

纽约或许是世界上娱乐之都，是一个看名人，电影、电视、戏剧和音乐剧中大明星的好地方。体育迷们有大量的机会观看一些顶级的体育比赛，并且纽约的夜生活也是世界著名的。

麦迪逊广场花园是观看纽约尼克斯篮球队的主场和金手套拳击比赛的地方。看棒球比赛可以去纽约扬基队的主场、扬基球场或者大都会队的谢依球场。

在纽约最好的艺术影院--电影论坛，你可以看到最新的国外和美国本土电影。但是纽约本身就是由一些来自纽约的导演如伍迪、艾伦和马丁、斯科西斯导演的许多电影主题。

最有名的爵士乐队在格林尼治村的爵士乐队演奏过，歌迷们可以在世界闻名的蓝音俱乐部听到当今巨星和未来的明星的演奏。大都会歌剧院对于歌剧爱好者来说是一个好去处，但是在你想要去看演出前，必须提前很长时间订票。圣诞期间最不容错过的演出之一是在林肯中心由纽约市芭蕾舞团表演的《胡桃夹子》。卡纳基音乐厅以它的各种音乐会--古典的和现代的而著称。

百老汇不仅仅是一条街道，而且是纽约的一个地区。

在那里你可以看到一些世界顶级和最大型的戏剧性和音乐剧表演，如《艾维塔》、《猫》和《歌剧院的幽灵》。如果你要是夏天来纽约，记住在中央公园花上一天的时间、观看一下莎士比亚戏剧的露天表演，那里有来自百老汇和好莱坞的著名演员。对于绘画爱好者来说，在纽约最好的去处是现代艺术博物馆或古根海姆博物馆。在纽约、餐馆处处可见，而且昼夜一直营业。

这里有很多意大利、中国和日本餐馆，但是现在你可以吃到来自泰国、越南、印度、缅甸或菲律宾风味的菜肴。在中央车站的牡蛎餐馆、试试来自曼哈顿最好的海鲜。

纽约的夜生活丰富多彩，包括迪斯科舞厅，如莱姆莱特舞厅，还有夜总会。事实上，很容易明白为什么他们称它为“不夜城”。

课文翻译：第9模块、英语对于我和你。谁拥有英语？

在澳大利亚、英国、加拿大、爱尔兰、新西兰、南非和美国，大约有四亿人在说英语。

尽管日常生活中还有其他的语言，然而在加纳、印度、尼日利亚、和新加坡，英语仍被用作官方、教育和贸易用语。

在中国和许多其他一些国家，英语是孩子们在学校要学的一门重要的外语，因为对于旅游、国际贸易、娱乐、广播、电视、报纸和网络，英语是必不可少的。所以，目前使用英语的人大约十五亿、占世界总人口的四分之一。不管你去世界的哪个地方，都会有机会见到有人说英语。这样的情况是怎么发生的呢？ 英语并不总是最通用的语言。

受过教育的人都在说法语，直到20世纪英语才变得重要了。

还有，英语的拼写对于它的发音没有多少帮助，并且语法也很难，尤其是词序。

原因是在18世纪，英国的工业产品销往世界各地。

在20世纪，美国通过报纸、电视、电影和广告将英语传播到世界各地。

现在它已经成为国际旅游、科技、工业的通用语言，在最近几年，它也成为信息技术和网络的通用语言。但是记住英语从其他语言中借用了很多单词也是很重要的，或者原词借用或者非常类似。

restaurant 来自法语、zero来自阿拉伯语、piano来自意大利以及来自汉语的typoon,china 等许多其他单词。许多人认为中国如果继续发展壮大，到21世纪中叶、汉语会变得和英语一样普遍。在欧洲越来越多的学校正在教汉语作为一门外语，而不是其他的欧洲语言。并且旅游业将中国列入前10名国家的旅游地。

但是至少在未来的20年或30年中，英语仍然是使用最广泛的语言。

那么，谁拥有英语呢？答案是每个讲英语的人--英国人、印度人和中国人都帮助它成为一种富有的语言。英语每年都在变，都有新的单词和短语出现。即使在语法、词汇、发音和拼写上有所不同，我们都属于国际英语这个世界，英语是我们大家的，也就是我们全部拥有英语。

课文翻译：第10模块、我未来的生活 第二单元、我祝你们将来成功。

校长、老师、爷爷奶奶、爸爸妈妈和同学们，今天我非常自豪被选中为大家做演讲。

我有点紧张，因为我从来没有在这么多人面前演讲过，因此如果我的紧张表现出来了，请见谅。我们都知道，这是毕业生晚会，是一个对每个人说再见的时刻。

我们很遗憾就要结束初中生活，离开你们。

但我们发誓我们将永远不会忘记和大家在这些大楼里度过的那段美好时光。我要感谢三部分人，在这个学校学习期间我从他们身上学到了三种东西。这三种东西是友谊、爱和知识。

首先要感谢的是我的朋友们，他们让我了解到友谊的重要性。

我们一起努力学习，甚至共同分担艰难的岁月，但我们也享受了很多快乐。我们中的许多人要去新的学校，以后我们可能不能经常见面，其他的人可能会上高中，然后继续他们亲密的友谊。但是朋友之间没有必要总是见面。

有时你最珍视的朋友却是那些你很少见面的朋友。

没有老朋友的生活就像没有阳光的日子一样，我们永远会保持联系的 第二个要感谢我们的父母和爷爷、奶奶。感谢你们在我们的初中时代给予我们的关爱，感谢你们为我们提供了一个安全又放松的家，感谢你们让我们安心上学。我们也同样感谢你们帮助我们完成家庭作业。最后，我要感谢我们的老师，我们永远无法报答你们的体贴、耐心以及你们传授给我们的知识。有时你们对我们很严格，有时你们鼓励我们努力地学习。但是，你们总是那么公平，总是我们的楷模。

爱尔兰有句谚语，是我最喜欢的，陌生人只是你还不认识的朋友而已。

我说不出更好的语言来表达我的心声，所以，我衷心的感谢你们所有的人，并祝你们将来成功。

My life in Quincy

By Betty King I was born in Quincy, a town on the east coast of America, twelve years ago.There were lots of things to do in Quincy, with many stores, two movie theaters, football clubs and basketball teams too.I wasn’t bored in Quincy.I was very happy there.Two presidents of the US, John Adams and his son John Quincy Adams, were born in Quincy.You can visit their old family houses.Our house was big and comfortable.There was a big living room with a TV, a kitchen, a bathroom and three bedrooms.On my bedroom walls there were pictures of my favourite movie stars.Behind the house, there was a big garden with lots of trees and there was a small lake with fish in it.It was great to play there.There were lots of children in Quincy.Many of them were my friends.This was our last in the US and I was there for the last time in 2010.One day I’ll go back, and I’m looking forward to seeing my friends again

Module 8 Story time

Unit 1 Once upon a time… Tony:

Daming: Tony: All alone in the dark dark forest, Goldilocks picked some flowers.Oh, did she often go for a walk in the forest alone? No, she didn’t.And soon she was lost.Goldilocks looked around her.―Where am I? she asked.Then she noticed a little house, so she hurried towards it, and knocked on the door., Nobody answered, so she knocked again, and again, Finally, she pushed the door.It was open.There was nobody there.Daming: Tony: Oh!Didn’t anyone live in the house?

Just wait a moment, Daming!Goldilocks entered the house and look into a small room.On a table there were three bowls with some nice food in them.One bowl was small, one was big and one was very big.Goldilocks was very hungry.She picked up the very big bowl but she didn’t like it—it was very hot,.Then she picked up the big bowl, but she didn’t like it –it was cold.The little bowl was just right.She finished all the food in it.Unit2 Goldilocks hurried out of the house

Goldilocks and the Three Bears Goldilocks wanted to sit down because she was tired.First she tried the big chair, but wasn’t comfortable.Then she tried the middle chair.It was not comfortable either.Finally, she tried the small chair.It was nice and comfortable, but Goldilocks was very heavy and soon the chair was in pieces.She walked into the bedroom.There were three beds.She didn’t like the middle bed or the big bed.The small bed was very comfortable.Very soon she was asleep in it.The Three Bears returned.They looked at the bowls and the chairs.Baby Bear cried,‖ There’s nothing in my bowl and my chair is in pieces!‖ He wasn’t very happy!

Next, the Bears looked in their bedroom.They didn’t notice Goldilocks at first.Then Baby Bear pointed at the little girl in his bed and shouted, ―Look!There’s the bad girl!‖

Goldilocks opened her eyes.The Three Bears were all around her, so Goldilocks jumped out of bed and hurried out of the house without her basket.She didn’t go for a walk in the forest again.Module 9 Life history Unit1 He left school and began work at the age of 12.Betty:

Chinese girls often walk arm in arm with their friends.South American sometimes hold your arm when they talk to you, so you can’t move away!But in Britain many people don’t like other people to touch them at all.Do you look at people when you talk? In some places, it isn’t polite to look at people when they talk, but in other countries it isn’t polite to look somewhere else.In Britain and the US, people usually look at each other when they talk.And how do you say goodbye? That’s easy, wave to say goodbye.But be careful!In Greece, it’s not at all polite!In fact, it’s very rude!

《纽约市失物招领处》

欢迎来到纽约市失物招领处人们在旅行时或者是匆忙之间经常会丢弃东西。他们把东西落在飞机上、火车上、汽车上或出租车上。那就是为什么机场和车站会设有失物招领处。

纽约市失物招领处非常大。每天会有上百人来到这里他们来找他们的电话机、照相机、手表、计算机和许多其他东西。我们通常大约有两千部手机和一千部照相机。

五一期间我将好好地玩一玩。五月一日早晨我会晚点起床，然后看书。下午我打算和家人、朋友一起外出。我们将在乡村散步，或者游泳。五月二日我们打算在我朋友家附近的公园里捡垃圾。这将会是一个很棒的假期，忙碌而有趣！

通常我都是在家过暑假，但是今年将完全不同，因为我将要参加一个在澳大利亚悉尼举办的夏令营。我将和一个澳大利亚家庭住在一起，并用英语沟通。我们还好好地游览一番，并且在海滩上用餐。

M4U1 李老师：未来的学校会不一样吗，大明? 大 明：是的，会不一样！也许二十年后就没有学校了！李老师：那时候学生们怎样学习呢？

大 明：每个人都会在家学习。学生们将会使用电脑，并且从网上获取信息。他们可以通过上网、打电话或发邮件问老师问题

玲 玲：太棒了！那学生们还会有很多作业要做吗？ 托 尼：不，不会了。他们会有更多的空闲时间！大 明：那太棒了。

M4U2 未来生活

未来的生活会怎样？将会发生怎样的变化？这里有一些想法。其中哪些会成现实呢？

未来，天气的变化不一定意味着更换衣服。我们将会穿一种新型的衣服。当我们觉得冷的时候他就会变暖和，当我们感觉热的时候他就会变凉爽。

在春天，不再有小雨和寒风。天气将整年都变得十分温暖甚至炎热，并伴有强风和暴雨。海平面也会升高。

我们将不会再公共汽车或骑自行车去旅行。每个家庭都会有一架小飞机。不会再有昂贵的汽车了——坐飞机旅行将会变得非常便宜，不仅可以在陆地上空飞行，而且还可以飞到海上甚至进入太空。也许空中会出现交通堵塞呢。

你喜欢漫长的假期么？那么，你会喜欢未来，因为机器和机器人将会完成所有繁重和艰苦的工作，而我们只需要做点轻松的工作就可以了。工作时间将会很短，因此人们将会拥有很长的假期。

M5U1（在服装店里）（在市场里）售货员：我能帮你做些什么？你想买点什玲玲：我还得买些吃的。

么？ 售货员：我能帮你吗？/你想买些什么？

玲玲：我想为我妈妈买件T恤衫。玲玲：是的,我想买些香肠。多少钱？ 售货员：她喜欢什么颜色？ 售货员：每公斤38元。你想要多少？ 玲玲：紫色。玲玲：半公斤。售货员：好的。她穿多大码？ 售货员：好的。你还想要些什么？ 玲玲：小号.玲玲：一公斤豆子和两个柠檬。售货员：这件怎么样? 售货员：30元。玲玲：我能试穿一下吗？ 贝蒂：噢，这些草莓看起来很新鲜。多少钱？ 售货员：当然可以。售货员：每公斤10元。玲玲：看他的价格。198元，太贵了！贝蒂：请称一公斤。着是59元。售货员：但是等一下！今天有打折活动，所

有上进都是五折。

玲玲：好！我买它了！

M5U2 网上购物

现在又很多种新型的购物方式，而网上购物就是其中一种。你在网上几乎可以买到一切物品，而且非常简单。首先，你选择某物——衣服、票、手机，甚至新电脑——然后付款、几天后你就会通过邮寄的方式收到你买的物品。

网上购物有几个优点。首先，你可以随时买东西。因为网上商店总是开着的。其次，去实体店购物通常需要花很多时间，但是在网上购物，你只需要一台电脑和一个鼠标，你还可以比较相同的产品的价格并且花很多的钱„..或者省一些钱。

但是许多人喜欢和朋友一切外出逛街购物。他们不喜欢网购，因为他们看不到实物，也不能穿试衣服。而且网上付款也并不总是安全的。

网上购物正在改变我们的生活方式。有一天将没有人再去商店购物，因为你能在网上买到任何东西，并且在全世界的各个地方和任何时间你都可以收到商品。

M6U1（贝蒂和玲玲站在天安门前）

游客：打扰一下！你们可以告诉我去王府井大街的路怎么走吗？

M7U2 12年前，我出生于昆西——美国东海岸的一个小镇，在那里有很多事情可以做，那里有许多商店、两家电影院还有足球俱乐部和篮球队，我在昆西从不会感到无聊，我在那里非常快乐。

美国曾有两位总统出生在昆西——约翰·亚当斯和他的儿子约翰·昆西·亚当斯.你可以去参观他们的故居。

我们的房子又大又舒服，有一间大的起居室，里面有一台电视机，还有一间厨房，一个卫生间和三间卧室，在我卧室的墙壁上，贴有我最喜欢的影星的图片。

房子后面有一个大花园，花园里有很多树，还有一个小湖里面有鱼，在那里玩耍真开心。

昆西有很多孩子，他们中很多都是我的朋友，这是我们在美国最后的家，我最近一次住在那里是在2010年，将来有一天我还会回去的，我盼望着在见到我的朋友！

M8U1 托尼：金凤花姑娘独自走进了阴暗的森林里。摘了一些花。大明：哦，她经常独自在森林里走吗？

托尼：不是，不久她迷路了，金凤花姑娘朝四周看了看。“我这是在哪啊？”她问道，接着，她注意到一栋小房子，于是她赶快朝那栋房子走了过去，敲了敲门，没人回应，于是她又反复的敲门，最后，她推开了门，门开了，里面没人。大明：噢,那房子没人住吗？

托尼：等一下，大明！金凤花姑娘走进房子里，然后往一个小房间看了看，在一张桌子上有三个碗，碗里盛着好吃的东西，一个碗小，一个碗大，还有一个碗特别大，金凤花姑娘特别饿，她端起了那个特别大的碗，但她不喜欢——太烫了，接着她又端起了稍 大的那个碗，但她还是不喜欢——太凉了，小碗里的正好，她把小碗里的东西全吃光了。

M8U2

《金凤花姑娘和三只熊》

金凤花姑娘想坐下，因为她累了，首先，她试着坐在那个大椅子上，但不太舒服，接着她又试了试那把中等大小的椅子，也不舒服，最后她坐在那把小椅子上，这个又好又舒服，可是金凤花姑娘太重了，那把椅子一会儿就散架了。

她走进卧室，里面有三张床，她不喜欢那张中等大小的床和大床，小床很舒服，很快她就在小床上睡着了。

三只熊回来了，它们看看碗和椅子，小熊哭道：“我的碗也空了，椅子也散架了！”他很不高兴。

接着，三只熊又看了看它们的卧室，一开始她们还没注意到金凤花姑娘，后来，小熊指着他床上的小女孩喊了起来：“看！有个坏女孩！”

金凤花姑娘睁开眼睛，三只熊都围在她身边，于是她从床上跳了下来，也顾不上提篮子，便冲出了房间。她再也不去那片森林里散步了。

威廉·莎士比亚是英国著名的剧作家和诗人。他一生中写了大约38个剧本、154首短诗，还有一些长诗。其中两个著名的剧作是《哈姆雷特》《罗密欧与朱丽叶》。

莎士比亚于1564年出生于英格兰的斯特拉特福小镇。像四百多年前的许多人一样，莎士比亚的父母不识字，在上学时候的莎士比亚就喜欢戏剧。所以在14岁毕业的时候，他决定成为一名演员。他1582年结婚。有三个孩子。大约在1592年，莎士比亚去了伦敦。加入了一个戏剧公司。她成为了一名成功的演员，并开始写剧本，女王伊丽莎白一世特别喜欢他的作品。

1599年。那家公司在伦敦的泰晤士河畔建起了环球剧院。今天你还可以去参观那个剧院，不在已是当年那个建筑了。老剧院发生过火灾，环球剧院分别在1614年和20世纪90年代进行了重建。

威廉·莎士比亚52岁去世。那是他成功、富有。你现在依然可以看见他的戏剧以英文和其他许多语言在演出。他举世闻名。

奶奶好！我现在在巴黎。珍妮和我前天坐飞机到这儿琼姑姑和皮特姑父到机场去接的我们。我们感觉很累，所以我们在家休息，昨天开始在市里观光。

昨天我们去了卢浮宫博物馆，那里有许多世界闻名的艺术品，比如《蒙娜·丽莎》。晚上我们在一家法国餐厅吃了晚饭，那菜可真好吃！

今天上午我们出去转了转。到处都是商店和餐馆，我很喜欢那些路旁的市场，卖的水果和蔬菜非常好。我们也买了些东西，我也给你买了件礼物，希望你会喜欢。

下午三点左右我们坐巴黎地铁去了埃菲尔铁塔。埃菲尔铁塔真是很高。那儿有很多游客，所以我们得排队等一个小时，后来我们到了塔顶。我们在那儿一直等到所有的灯都亮了起来，那景色太棒了！

我们明天要去参观一个著名的宫殿，还要乘船游览塞纳河，我会再给你写邮件的。

爱你的，贝蒂

M11U1 玲玲：明天我们学校会有一些俄罗斯老师来访，我要去迎接他们，我该怎么做呢？ 贝蒂：玲玲：你知道吗，在俄罗斯，人们通常亲吻面颊三次：左、右、左。

玲玲：什么！不，我原来可不知道。我们中国人见到来访者的时候经常握手、微笑，有时候点头示意，但我们从来不亲吻，只有父母和孩子才亲吻。贝蒂：那是因为不同的国家的人做法不同。玲玲：那美国人见面时会怎么做呢？

贝蒂：在美国，有一些人握手，还有一些人亲吻或者相互拥抱。在印度，人们把手合拢并点头行礼。你知道新西兰的毛利人见面时怎么做吗？ 玲玲：不知道，他们怎么做？ 贝蒂：他们碰鼻子！

M11U2

《世界各地的身势语》

我们的外国新生很快就要到了。下面是迎接他们的一些方式。

当你和朋友交谈时站得有多近呢？如果是中东地区的人，你可以站的近一些，但是不要站的离北美人太近！应给他们更多的个人空间。

那么关于身体接触呢？中国女孩就常常和朋友手挽着手走在一起，南美人和你交谈时有时候会抓着你的胳膊，所以你就走不开了！但在英国，许多人可不喜欢别人碰他们。

你和别人交谈时你会看着对方吗？在一些地区，交谈时看着对方是不礼貌的，但在另外一些国家，交谈时看别的地方是不礼貌的。在英国和美国，人们交谈时通常会看着对方。

如何表示告别呢？那很简单，挥手告别，但是你要小心哦！在希腊，那绝对不是礼貌！事实上，那是很粗鲁的！

M12U1（背景音乐：《蓝色多瑙河》

大明：嗯，这是西方音乐，是吧？你能听见小提琴家和钢琴的演奏吗？太美妙了！这是斯特劳斯还是莫扎特的作品？ 玲玲：我不太确定„„..贝蒂：是斯特劳斯的作品。我太喜欢他的音乐了！你了解他吗？托尼？ 托尼：他是德国人吗？

贝蒂：不是，他出生于奥地利首都维也纳，一座很美丽的城市！这首乐曲叫《蓝色多瑙河》，多瑙河是欧洲一条河流，流经维也纳。玲玲：贝蒂，你喜欢西方传统音乐还是流行音乐？ 贝蒂：呃„..我都喜欢。玲玲，你听流行音乐，对吗？ 玲玲：对，我还喜欢京剧，你听着绝妙的嗓音。

维也纳是位于欧洲中部多瑙河畔的一座古老而美丽的城市，它是奥地利首都，也是欧洲古典音乐的中心。在18世纪，很多音乐家来到维也纳学习和工作。

在斯特劳斯家族，有两位名为约翰·斯特劳斯的作曲家父亲和儿子。父亲老约翰·斯特劳斯创作并演奏一种古典舞曲，叫华尔兹，他的舞曲让他闻名于欧洲。儿子小约翰·斯特劳斯也非常成功！深受欢迎。他谱写了150多首华尔兹舞曲。1867年 他创作了华尔兹舞曲《蓝色多瑙河》。

莫扎特是另一位非常重要的艺术家。他1756年出生于奥地利，不到六岁就不仅会弹钢琴，还会拉小提琴。家人带着他周游欧洲并在许多城市巡回演出。他谱写了几百部动人的音乐作品，但是他后来变得很贫困，于1791年去世年仅35岁。像约翰·斯特劳斯父子俩一样，它是一位伟大的欧洲音乐家。现在许多人依然认为他的音乐是完美的。
