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: She's fine.It was great to see her again.I really like her.Did you do anything interesting while you were there? Did you visit her Betty: school? Tony: Yes, I did.She took me there herself.Betty: What's it like? Tony: Here you are!These are some photos of Park School.I took them myself.Lingling: Let's have a look.Tony: It isn't as big as ours.It's only got about 700 pupils.Lingling: And how many pupils are there in a class? 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? Both schools are very nice.And neither school has anything the other Tony: hasn't got.But...Betty: But what...? 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

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.

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！”

The Greatest Wonder of the Natural World When I arrived, it was early morning and it was raining.I got out of the car, went through a gate and walked along a path.In the east, the sky was becoming light, but beside the path, it was still very dark.I knew it was there, but there was nothing to see.After about a kilometre, a stranger appeared in front of me.“Am I going the right way?” I asked.He knew where I was going.“Yes,” he replied, “you'll get there in five minutes.” Finally, I came to some rocks, and stopped.I looked carefully over them, but it was still too dark to see anything.Suddenly, the clouds cleared and the rain stopped.The sun rose behind me and beyond the rocks.I saw that the ground fell away and down to a river, far below me.I was on the edge of the Grand Canyon, one of the wonders of the natural world.I looked down to the Colorado River about 2 kilometres below me.If you put the three tallest buildings in the world at the bottom of the canyon, they still won't reach the top.Then I looked across to the other side of the canyon.How far is it? It's 20 kilometres, maybe more.Finally, I looked to my left and to my right, and on both sides the canyon disappeared into the distance...over 400 kilometres long.The Grand Canyon is not just big.It's huge!That morning on the edge of the canyon, I asked myself a question.It's not “How deep is it?” or “How wide is it?” or “How long is it?” but “Is the Grand Canyon the greatest wonder anywhere in the natural world?” I know the answer.But what do you think? Module 2 Unit 1 Listen and read.Mr Jackson: Hello, Betty.What's up? What are you doing in the library? I was looking for some old copies of the school magazine.If I've got it Betty: right, it was called New Standard.That's right.As far as I remember, it was started by Becky Wang.We don't Mr Jackson: have a school magazine any more.It's a pity.Betty: Well, I'm thinking about starting it again.Mr Jackson: Sounds like a good idea!Go on.Betty: I was also looking for something by Confucius and by Shakespeare.Mr Jackson: Really? That's a bit difficult for the school magazine.Well, I'd like a monthly article called “Great Books”—you know, someone Betty: reads a favourite work of literature and writes an article about it.I see.Confucius' works are still read by many people today, and we're still influenced by his thoughts.And Shakespeare's plays are seen by millions of people every year.But how about an American writer, Mark Twain, for Mr Jackson: example? I don't know.Mark Twain was an important writer, but he isn't known as a Betty: great thinker like Confucius.No, but his books are still popular.In fact, he wrote my favourite book The Adventures of Tom Sawyer.Perhaps that's what makes “Great Mr Jackson: Books”—they're still read today.Betty: So why don't you write the first article on “Great Books”? Module 2 Unit 2 Read the passage and check your answers to the following questions.1.What did Betty suggest at the end of the conversation in Unit 1? 2.What book did Mr Jackson choose? 3.What do you think happens in the book? 4.What do you think are the main ideas of the book? Great Books

The Adventures of Tom Sawyer

Here is our monthly article on a favourite great book.This month, our guest writer is Mr Jackson.My favourite great book is The Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain.Tom lives with his aunt Polly in the quiet streets of St Petersburg, Missouri.He's a lively and clever young boy, and he finds himself in many exciting adventures.He runs away with his two friends, Huck Finn and Joe, to an island in the middle of the Mississippi River for several days.With Huck he goes looking for treasure, with Becky he gets lost in a cave, and finally, they find a box of gold.My favourite scene in the book is when everyone thinks Tom is dead.He decides to go to his own funeral.He hides and watches for a time, and then suddenly he appears.Everyone is surprised to see him but they're also pleased to see him alive.Tom is the hero of the story, but there are other important characters.Huck is an outsider and everyone is afraid of him.Becky is pretty with fair hair, Joe is Tom's best friend, and Injun Joe is the bad man of the story.The theme of the story are to do with children growing up and becoming more serious.It describes how strangers are seen in small towns of America.Finally, it talks about freedom, social rules and how people are punished for bad behaviour.Why do I think Tom Sawyer is a great book? Mark Twain wrote the story in 1876, but it's still read and loved by people all over the world today.And although it's only a story, Twain wrote it in the everyday English of the southern states of America in the 19th century, so it sounds very real.Today it's thought to be one of the greatest books in American literature.Go on—read it!I know you'll enjoy it, too.Module 3 Unit 1 Listen and read.Lingling: Hi, Tony.You look tired.Yes.I'm training with BIG, the Beijing International Globetrotters, for the Tony: School's Basketball Competition.It's the big match next week.Betty: Who's it against?

Lingling: I think you're right, Betty.Daming: Well, you won't be allowed to watch with our fans if that's what you think!Betty: It's true, Daming.Well, I don't agree.We're playing really well this season.I think we're so Tony: good that we'll be asked to play in the Olympic Games.Don't let them get to you, Tony!Daming:(They leave)Lingling: Hee hee!Nice work, Betty!Of course.They're so mad with us that they'll try harder to win, just to show Betty: we're wrong!Module 3 Unit 2 Read the passage and choose the sentence which best expresses the main idea.Liu Xiang—Trained for Gold

Sports Yearbook 2004 For Liu Xiang, life as a sporting hero has just begun.First of all, he'll be invited to competitions around the world.He'll be chosen to represent China at the Olympic Games.He's a symbol of China's international sporting success.And now that he's well known all over the world, Liu Xiang will also be asked to appear in advertisements and films, and even to record music.But his coach Sun Haiping is making sure that he trains regularly.Liu Xiang will be advised by his coach on how to be a great sportsman, and by his manager on how to be a star.Liu Xiang is not an overnight success.He was born in Shanghai on 13th July, 1983 and, like many Olympic sports stars, he started training when he was very young.In Grade Four, he went to the Junior Sports School of Putuo District of Shanghai.Liu was encouraged at first to train as a high jumper.Then, in 1998, his skill at hurdling was noticed by his coach Sun Haiping.Liu Xiang was helped by a special programme.It was set up in 2001 to help young sportsmen and sportswomen.Liu's races were recorded, and his performance was compared with the world's best sports stars.Sun Haiping used the information to change Liu's training programme.In 2002 he won his first international 110m hurdles event in Switzerland, and in the same year, a gold medal at the Asian Games in Korea.In 2004, Liu won the first Olympic gold medal in the same event for China in Athens, Greece.So what's next for Liu Xiang? Has he found out that there's more to life than training? Will he be encouraged to spend more time away from sport? No, Liu Xiang will go for more medals for China because he was trained for gold!Liu Xiang ____.was helped by his sports school to become a gold medal winner has trained for many years, and will continue to win medals will be encouraged to be a star and not a sporting hero

Module 4 Unit 1 Listen and read.Tony: Dad, can I ask a favour? Can I borrow your digital camera? Tony's dad: Why? Tony: I'd like to take some photos on the school visit to the museum next week.Tony's dad: Is this for your school magazine? Has it been published yet? Yes, two issues have been published.But it's going to be an online magazine Tony: from now on.Tony's dad: What's wrong with an ordinary magazine? Do you mean using paper? It's too expensive.If the magazine is online, paper won't be needed.That's an important advantage.It'll be published on the Tony: school website, and it can be read on screen.Well, that makes me think.Paper and printing have been used for ages.We once got information from books, but now the same information can be read Tony's dad: or even listened to on computers.I wonder...Can books be replaced by computers? Maybe I'll write something Tony: for the magazine!Anyway, about the camera...? Here it is.The battery hasn't been charged for a couple of months.It's Tony's dad: been turned off since your mum's birthday party.Tony: It doesn't matter.I'll see to that.But you must promise that it won't be lent to anyone, and it won't be left Tony's dad: at school!Just look after it.Is that clear?

by Tony Smith Every morning my father buys a newspaper on his way to work.Every day I open my books in class and start my lessons.Every evening my mother looks through magazines at home.And every night, I look at the posters with photos of David Beckham and Yao Ming on my bedroom wall before I go to sleep.Can we imagine life without paper or print? Paper was first created about 2,000 years ago, and has been made from silk, cotton, bamboo, and, since the 19th century, from wood.People learned to write words on paper to make a book.But in those days, books could only be produced one at a time by hand.As a result, they were expensive and rare.And because there weren't many books, few people learned to read.Then printing was invented in China.The first printed books were made by putting ink on a wooden block and holding the paper against it.When printing was developed greatly at the beginning of the 11th century, books could be produced more quickly and cheaply.As a result, more people learned to read.After that, knowledge and ideas spread quickly, in a way that can be compared with the introduction of the Internet in the 20th century.But will books be needed in the future? Today information can be received online, downloaded from the Internet rather than found in books, and information can be kept on CD-ROMs or machines such as MP3 players.These machines are smaller and lighter than books so that they can be carried very easily.Computers are already used in classrooms, and newspapers and magazines can already be read online.So will books be replaced by computers one day? No, I don't think the Yao Ming poster on my bedroom wall will ever be replaced by a computer two metres high!Module 5 Unit 1 Listen and read.Betty: Let's go to the Science and Technology room.It's upstairs.Daming: Come on!This way!I'm looking forward to this!Guard: Shh!No shouting!It's against the rules.Daming: But I want to go upstairs before we have to go home.Guard: Hang on a minute!You mustn't go up there!Come back!Daming: What's the matter? Guard: Look at the sign—“No entry”.Daming: Oh!Why? Guard: It's closed until January.And the Natural History room as well.Oh dear.My classmates and I have got to write a report for homework by Friday.Tony: Well, let's go downstairs.Lingling: Why? Tony: I want to buy some postcards in the shop.Where's Daming? Lingling: I don't know.He's gone off on his own.Tony: Look at this amazing sculpture.Guard: Don't touch!You mustn't touch it.Tony: Sorry.I'll just take a photo.Guard: No, you can't take a photo, either.Look at the sign—“No photography”.I'm sorry.I wasn't paying attention to what you were saying.I was looking Tony: at the sculpture.It looks very real.Lingling: Hurry up!You're taking so long.Let's go.Where's Daming? Tony: It looks very strange.It's kind of familiar!It looks like...Daming: Waaaargh!Tony:...Daming!Betty: Oh, very funny!No wonder it looks real.Lingling: It's not a sculpture.It's Daming!Module 5 Unit 2 Read the passage and answer the questions.1.In what way is the Science Museum different from other museums? 2.Where does Tony go when he visits the Science Museum? 3.What else is there to see in the Science Museum?

The Science Museum in London

by Tony Smith The most unusual museum in London is the Science Museum.In most museums, there's no shouting and no running, and you aren't allowed to touch the exhibits.But the Science Museum is different...because it's noisy!People talk about what they can see and do there, and some of the machines are noisy as well.Visiting the Science Museum is fun and it's a great way to learn about science because you can work things out and try out ideas.When I visit the Science Museum, I go to the Launch Pad.This is my favourite room because you can do physics experiments.For example, if you want to fill a bag with falling sand, you have to move a kind of truck on wheels into the correct position.I also go to the Rocket Show.You can learn how we travel into space and back again.Then I go upstairs to the Human and Nature room.You can compare your speed with animals there.You hear a noise and push a button.If you aren't fast enough, the lion catches you!I'm faster than all my friends, but the lion still catches me.There are also rooms on transport, the environment and space technology, as well as maths, physics and chemistry.You can do a lot of things in this museum, but you have to obey some rules as well.For example, you mustn't take photos of the exhibits in the museum.But you can buy postcards of them in the museum shops.Above all, the Science Museum is free.That means you can drop in for a few minutes or you can stay as long as you like—it's open every day, from 10 a.m.to 6 p.m.So if you ever go to London, make sure you visit the Science Museum.It's my favourite museum in the whole world.Module 6 Unit 1 Listen and read.Hey, you guys!Guess what!We've just got an email from a reader of our New Betty: Standard!Lingling: Great!What does it say? It's from Zhao Ming.He says, “I saw your enjoyable online magazine while I Betty: was doing my homework on favourite books.” Daming: He read Mr Jackson's article!He says, “When are you going to write about environmental education? I'm at Betty: a green school in Dalian...” Daming: What's a green school? “...and everyone agrees we must be careful about the environment.In fact, there are thousands of green schools in China.It's wasteful to throw away glass, paper and metal, so every class collects reusable waste, sells it for Betty: recycling...” Tony: Nice idea!“...and raises money to help students in poor areas.But it's not just at Betty: school, it's also at home that we save energy and recycle...” Daming: Such as...? “...such as turning lights off, so we don't waste electricity.” And he finishes, “I'm hopeful that if everyone thinks about pollution and recycling, Betty: we can protect the air and the oceans, and help save our world.If we don't, the future is hopeless.” Tony: Let's ask Zhao Ming to write something.Module 6 Unit 2 Read the passage and answer the questions in the first paragraph.How to be green

by Zhao Ming How green are you? Do you care about protecting the environment and saving energy? Try these questions and see. Do you try to walk or ride a bike to school?  Do you buy new clothes just because they are the latest fashions?  Do you open a window instead of turning on air conditioning?  Do you buy things produced locally instead of made abroad?  Do you take your own cloth bag when shopping instead of using plastic bags?  Do you sort the waste before throwing it away? We all need a healthy environment, but we produce waste every day and it does harm to our environment.Though we are young, we can still do something to help.In fact, even the simplest everyday activities can make a real difference to the environment.Here are some ideas for you.Remember these three words: Reduce, reuse and recycle.Reduce Reduce means “use less”.Don't waste things.This saves money and reduces pollution and waste going into the environment.Before we buy something new, think whether it is really necessary—or maybe the old one will be just as good!When we do buy things, choose local products if possible, and try not to buy too many things from abroad.Reuse Reuse means “use again”.Use things for as long as possible.When we buy things, make sure that they last a long time.We should look after them so that they will last, and we should repair them if we can instead of throwing them away and buying new ones.Don't use a paper cup or a paper bag.It's better to use a china cup and a lunch box because you can use them again.Recycle Recycle means “change things into something else”.Although it takes energy to change something into something else, it's better than throwing things away or burning them.Find out what can be recycled in your neighbourhood and take part in recycling programmes.We should also buy products made from recycled materials, such as recycled paper, to help save trees.Module 7 Unit 1 Listen and read.Tony's dad: Hi, Tony.What are you up to? Tony: I'm looking for the photos that you took in Australia.Tony's dad: OK, would you like a hand to find them? Great!Thanks.We're doing a project about countries that we want to visit, and I'm going to write about Australia.I have to imagine that I've been Tony: there, and that I'm writing a letter to Mum and you.Tony's dad: Well, have a look at these.Tony: Let's see.Hey!What's that? It's called Uluru.It's a huge rock in the centre of Australia.It's Tony's dad: fantastic.Tony: And this building? That's the Sydney Opera House.It's like a huge sailing boat with water on three sides.And this one is a photo of a shark that I saw on the Great Barrier Tony's dad: Reef.Tony: Wow!It's amazing!Did you see any kangaroos or crocodiles? There were kangaroos that were jumping alongside the car on our way back Tony's dad: from Uluru.But no crocodiles.Tony: They're great photos.By the way, can I borrow the camera again? Tony's dad: Why? Well, there's a photo competition that I want to win!I want to take some Tony: photos at our school dance next week.I bet you do!OK, you can borrow it, but only once you've done your project Tony's dad: on Australia.Module 7 Unit 2 Read the letter and find what the photos show.Thursday Dear Mum and Dad, I'm writing this letter to you from the centre of Australia.At the moment we're staying near Uluru—that's the Aboriginal name for Ayers Rock.On the first day, we took a helicopter tour over the rock, and I was surprised at how big it was: 3.6 kilometres long and 348 metres high.The colours of the rock are fantastic, and at different times of the day, they change from purple to red.The Aborigines are the first people of Australia, and the ancient Aboriginal stories describe the spirits that created the world.Uluru is a centre of Aboriginal culture.The Australians have many British relatives and they're like us in many ways.Their family life is similar to ours, and they enjoy the same food and hobbies.The food and drink that most Australians like are grapes, lamb, ham and especially wine that they make in the south of the country.They love all sports, but the games that they love the most are football, cricket and rugby.Because most Australians live near the coast, they love going to the beach, swimming and surfing.Although it's December, it's summer over here.The sunshine is very bright, and near the coast the countryside is very green.There are lots of sheep in the fields and on the hills, but the outback is more like a desert, full of rocks and sand.Most Australians speak English, although they have some special expressions such as “Good day!” and “No worries, mate.” They mean “Hello!” and “Don't worry about it.It's not a problem!” The next day after we arrived at Uluru, we went on a camel ride.The camel that I rode had a bad temper, and I got very tired.Everyone else thought it was very funny that my camel kept lying down...Finally, later this evening, we're taking the plane back to Sydney and coming home.It's been a fantastic trip!Love, Tony Module 8 Unit 1 Listen and read.Lingling: There are a lot of people here!Well, everyone wants to come to the school dance.The trouble is, I want Tony: to get some good photos, but I can't see over people's heads.Daming: Are you going to enter the photo competition? Tony: You bet!By the way, is that He Zhong at the front? What's he doing here? Betty: Same as you!Daming: Who's He Zhong? Tony: He's the photographer who won the photo competition last time!Daming: The one who won the photo competition last summer? Tony: That's right.Lingling: Shh!It's the Blues Boys playing!It's the band which gets everyone dancing.Tony: Those drums are really loud!Maybe I'll go upstairs.OK, but look after your camera!Betty:(Later...)

Betty: Hi, Tony.How did you get on? Fine.I got some great shots of the boy who plays the guitar on the left.Tony: Where is He Zhong? Betty: He left early.There was something wrong with his camera.Tony: Great!Now I'm in with a chance to win!Lingling: But, Tony...where's your camera? Tony: It's here, in my bag.Oh no, it's gone!Betty: You're kidding!Tony: But I had it a minute ago.Perhaps I left it upstairs...Betty: He's quite unhappy.Lingling: His father is the person who will be most unhappy.Tony's dad: Hi, everyone!Betty: Oh!Mr Smith!Help!I mean...hello!Tony? Er, we didn't expect to see you!Tony's dad: I've just come to pick Tony up.Did he try out my camera? Module 8 Unit 2 Read the passage.Results of Student Photo Competition We were very pleased with the photo competition.Compared with other years, we received many more photos.Even though all of the photos are excellent, we can't give prizes to everyone.There are four prizes, so read on to find out who the winners are.The person who won the prize for the Most Beautiful Nature photography is fifteen-year-old Li Wei.Li took photos of the mountains in Xiangshan Park.The park isn't far from his home, about 500 metres, and he knows it very well.The photo which we liked best in the Historic China group was taken by Zhao Min.Zhao is only 12 years old.Her photo is of Tian'anmen Square, the largest public square in the world.It's 880 metres from north to south and 500 metres wide at the northern end.Her photo shows the size and beauty of the square perfectly.The best photo in the Music category was taken by He Zhong.His photo of this year's best band Crazy Feet shows the singer, Becky Wang, and the band playing at a concert in Shenzhen.He Zhong manages to show the movement and the sounds of this great new band, and the fun which their fans are having.A collection of photos called “The Many Faces of Our City” which features Beijing won the prize for the Most Unusual category.Three pupils at the same school worked on this entry.It includes photos of different parts of the city, old and new.It successfully shows the rich culture which makes Beijing so famous.Congratulations to our winners and thanks to everyone who entered the competition.We are very lucky that the famous photographer John William is in China to talk about his new book.He has agreed to present the prizes at the prize giving ceremony at the end of this month.Module 9 Unit 1 Listen and read.Daming: Oh dear!Where's the camera? What's Tony's dad going to say? Betty: This is like a cartoon story.Lingling: Why? I can imagine every drawing in the cartoon, and I know what the ending will Betty: be.Daming: The cartoons I like have lots of jokes.Lingling: But it's no laughing matter.This is serious.Betty: This isn't one of those cartoons which make you laugh.Daming: And the characters I like are heroes like Superman or Batman.Lingling: We need someone like Superman who can save Tony...Mr Jackson: Hello, I'm looking for Tony.Daming: He's over there!Could you tell him I'd like to have a word with him? I've got a camera which Mr Jackson: has got his name on it.It was upstairs.Daming: That's good news.Shall I give it to him? Mr Jackson: OK.Here you are.Betty: Oh, Tony's dad is going over to speak to him.If Tony tells his dad that he's lost the camera he borrowed, he'll be in Daming: deep trouble.Lingling: How can we let Tony know that we've got his dad's camera? Daming: I know!Let's take a photo.He'll see the flash.Betty: That's a smart idea!Give it to me!Well, it may not be very funny, but perhaps it'll be a cartoon which has Lingling: a happy ending.And I'll be Superman!Betty:(Snap.)

Module 9 Unit 2 Read the passage and match the words or phrases in the box with the cartoons.cute;emperor;fan club;heaven;lovable;mess;monster;private

Cartoon Heroes Nemo, a cute orange-and-white fish, and Shrek, a huge green monster have won the hearts of young people in China and all over the world.The heroes of popular cartoons are everywhere, on office desks, handbags, and computer screens.But there are some cartoon favourites which are older.The cartoon of the Monkey King has just had its “40th birthday”.Called Havoc in Heaven, it tells the story of a monkey who leads a group of monkeys against the rule of the Emperor in heaven.He flies into a peach garden and eats as many peaches as he likes.He makes a mess in each room in heaven.But it is above all the jokes played by the monkey that people remember.“Havoc in heaven” has become a common expression used by a parent or a boss when they return to the house or office and see a mess.Another favourite who has celebrated an important birthday in China is a reporter with red hair and a small white dog.Tintin has travelled to the jungles, the backstreets of Shanghai and even the surface of the moon.Tintin has been popular for 75 years, ever since Belgian cartoonist Hergé invented the character in 1929.His books have been translated into more than 50 languages, and about 200 million copies have been sold.In December 1984 the whole series of Tintin began to be published in China.Many Chinese still keep collections of these black-and-white Tintin books.There are several fan clubs in China which have held birthday parties for Tintin in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Nanjing and Wuhan.Finally, Snoopy, Charlie Brown's lovable dog who lives in his own private dream world, also has his “50th birthday” celebrated by China's Snoopy fans in 2000.“I didn't draw the cartoons only for children.Adults who have experienced life understand them better,” said the late Charles Schultz, creator of Snoopy and the Peanuts cartoons.Module 10 Unit 1 Listen and read.Lingling: How was your basketball training? Tony: It was OK, but I'm a bit tired.My legs ache a bit.Lingling: Don't give up if you want to stay fit.You're lucky you're only playing in the school team!I've got a friend whose brother is training for the Olympics.There's a boy in our team whose parents want him to go to a sports school.Daming: But he's not fit or strong enough.Lingling: He'll need to take a lot of exercise—go running or do weight training.Daming: So what happened about the camera, Tony? Don't talk to me about that!I think my dad guessed that I nearly lost it at Tony: the school dance.I'm not allowed to use it any more.But we need some photos of the next basketball match.Are you going to buy Daming: a camera? Unlikely!It's my father who gives me my pocket money, and he's the person Tony: whose camera I nearly lost.Hi, everyone.Guess what!I've just bumped into the head teacher.He said he Betty: wanted to see me.Daming: What's up? Betty: He wants to talk about New Standard.Daming: Ask him if he wants to write something about staying healthy.Betty: He doesn't look like someone whose fitness and health interest him very much!Daming: Good luck, Betty.Module 10 Unit 2 Read the passage and match the headings with the paragraphs.a.What is healthy food? b.Getting things done c.What's on the menu? d.Improving school meals

Feed Me Better Jamie Oliver is a young cook who wants to improve school dinners.In 2005 he went back to school to see what the children were eating.What's on the menu?

Jamie asked the children what their meals were like.“We have hamburgers and chips, or pizza,” they told him, “and sometimes here is fruit, but we prefer ice cream.” Jamie thought the menu was terrible.The children were eating junk food, and it was problem.Junk food isn't just bad for the body.Children whose midday meals were unhealthy were difficult to teach in he afternoon.Teachers said that children behaved very badly after lunch.Improving school meals

When Jamie took vegetables into class, the children didn't know what they were.Jamie realised that the children didn't know about healthy food.Then he talked to the people who worked in the kitchens.He found out that they didn't know enough about food and health, and they didn't have very much money to spend.What is healthy food?

He decided to teach the cooks and the children about healthy food.It was hard work!He cooked healthy meals for them including meat, rice, pasta and vegetables, but a lot of the teenagers refused to eat the new food.Jamie showed them why the junk food wasn't healthy.In the end, when Jamie persuaded them to try his cooking, they liked it!Getting things done

Jamie talked to the government.He told them they needed to ban junk food from schools, train the cooks, educate the children and pend more money on school dinners.A lot of parents, teachers and children agreed with him.The newspapers wrote articles about him, and a TV programme showed his visits to the school.Jamie is a cook whose ideas are changing school dinners all over Britain.Module 11 Unit 1 Listen and read.Tony: So what's next for New Standard?

Daming: No idea!Becky Wang, the singer with Crazy Feet, and the person who started New Betty: Standard!Tony: I don't believe it!Module 11 Unit 2 Read the passage.Visions of the City Jo is 15 and lives in Parkville.When Jo's grandparents first came to Parkville 50 years ago, it was a quiet country village in the centre of the country.At that time, they had a small house on the edge of town, with some fields and the hills in the distance.But Parkville was close to a big city, Arnwick, with about 200,000 people.People from the countryside began to arrive in Arnwick to find jobs and have a better life.And of course they needed somewhere to live.However, it was expensive to live in the centre of Arnwick, so the city government decided to build flats around the edge of the city.And soon, Parkville became a suburb of Arnwick.It now has over a million people.Jo's family live in one of those new flats—there's no room for small houses any more.The small local school in Parkville closed down five years ago.Jo goes to a school close to the centre of Arnwick, with 2,000 pupils.No one knows all their names.It takes Jo an hour to get to school, and this adds to the traffic and pollution.But it's not her fault.She liked her old school.Arnwick needs larger hospitals and more doctors, better public transport and fewer private cars.There need to be shops and offices.It also needs clean water and no rubbish in the streets.It's difficult to run a big city, and to protect people from crime.So it also needs more laws and more police, and more taxes to pay for everything.Well, what do you think of all this? Do you like the things which are happening in Parkville? In fact, “Visions of the city” is just a story.But does your town have the same problems as Arnwick? Module 12 Unit 1 Listen and read.Lingling: Are you OK, Betty? Your hair looks nice!And you look smart, Daming.Daming: My new trousers are a bit tight...Tony: Everyone is watching us.The whole class is just behind us.Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to our school prize-giving.Our special guest is the singer with Crazy Feet.The group is very popular—everyone in my family is a huge fan!Please give a warm welcome to Becky Wang!Head teacher:(Applause)I'm pleased to present the prizes today.As a pupil, my time here was very important...(Later)...so finally, the New Standard team gets the special prize.You're flying...to Los Angeles!(Cheers)Your travel is free, your accommodation is with American families, and your pocket money is 100 dollars each.Lingling and Daming are doing an English course.It starts on 1st August and your host family is meeting Becky Wang: you at the airport.Tony:(whisper)What about us? We speak English already!Lingling: Shh!And Betty and Tony, the good news is...you're coming to watch Crazy Feet Becky Wang: record its latest CD.We start work in the studio on 3rd August.But I haven't got anything to wear!And my jeans are too small.My Tony: sunglasses are very old.Betty: Don't be silly, Tony!It's a wonderful prize!Becky Wang: Thank you very much.It's been wonderful to be here.Module 12 Unit 2 Read the passage and choose the best answer.Learn English in Los Angeles We provide summer English courses which are the best you can find.You will enjoy coming to Los Angeles to learn about American culture and improve your English at the same time.The courses last for four, six or eight weeks.They start at the beginning of July and August.Our teachers are well-trained and very experienced.They teach English classes for four hours a day.You can choose between small groups of two or three, or larger groups of up to 15.We provide weekly tests to see the progress you're making with your language skills of reading, writing, speaking and listening.We also provide books and other materials.As well as learning English, we want you to experience life in the USA.You live with an American family, and you take part in American life.You have meals with an American family and do some activities with them, too.For many of our students this is the most interesting part of the course.Many families create friendships with the students which last a long time.Of course, if you prefer, we can arrange hotel accommodation.Of course, there are many things to do in Los Angeles.Every day we have activities which take place after class.You can choose to take trips to Hollywood, Disneyland or the famous beaches around LA.You can also go to various shopping centers, sports centers, movies and concerts.There are also weekend visits organized to San Francisco and other places of interest in California.We try to give our students the best possible experience of English and life in the USA.Just ask our students!They say our summer English Courses are fantastic!We hope that you'll enjoy a course with us, too.If you're interested, please fill in our application form where you will also find our list of prices.The course must be paid for one month before it begins.The passage is a(n)____.newspaper article about language courses description of an English course(T)guide to Los Angeles description of life in Los Angeles

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!

第五篇：外研版九年级英语免费课件

一、复习中应遵循几个原则及策略：

（一）是抓住课本，有效复习。教材和课程标准是考前复习和考试命题的依据。

（二）是系统归纳，分清脉络。

（三）是专项练习，有的放矢。

二、重难点分析：

1.单词的复习

九年级新教材的突出特点是词汇量大，词汇是英语学习的基础，不熟练掌握单词，英语的学习将从我说起。因此要想方设法的搞好词汇的复习，把单词进行归类使学生容易掌握。

2、关于语法知识的复习

考试前需要复习的语法知识有：现在完成时、直接引语和间接引语、被动语态、代词的用法等。计划对语法知识进行全面的总结，并配合适量练习，让学生尽量达到懂语法并且会用语法。由此，减少或解除学生心中模糊的知识。复习语法时，要注重引导学生记住结构，能灵活运用到实际生活中去，运用学过的语法写句子，写简单的文章。

3．习题的设置：

九年级的内容多，容量大，时间紧。必须重视习题的质量。针对这种情况要精选部分试题进行强化训练，特别是学生容易错的，在复习中多加以巩固。

三、复习目标：

本次复习时间紧（大致有2周复习时间）、任务重，仍然采取以单元为单位进行复习。复习时以课本知识为主，兼顾习题。单词、语法、习题三项要彼此兼顾，要处理好三者之间的关系。

四、复习内容在教材整体结构中的作用：

九年级学生使用此教材时，大部分学生觉得知识的跨度较大，不少同学感到力不从心。因此，本次复习关系重大。对于学生知识的系统性，学习英语的自信心等都有极大的关系。2-4单元为复习重点，复习时要强调基础知识，建议学生将已学过的语法知识进行归纳分类，以便使零散的知识连贯起来。将词汇，语法作为复习重点，复习其他词类时多关注固定用法、平时常见的错误及教师课堂上提出应注意问题等。复习过程中以学生自检与教师检查相结合，及时反馈学习效果，注重复习的有效性。

五、倾向性问题及需要注意的问题：

有关课本的知识的要求，应该分层次进行。因为基础知识内容过多，要求所有同学全部掌握是不可能的。因此要进行分层次教学。练习过程中采取逐步引导，渗透作题技巧，要注意培养学生的分析问题能力、解决问题能力。查缺补漏。复习时要强调针对性和有效性。不搞题海战术，把各种针对性比较强的综合训练作为检查存在不足的工具，重点突破那些平时没有熟练掌握的内容。
