How to Improve Our Oral English
Last Friday ，I had an interview with Linguist Professor Zhang about how to improve our oral English. 时间：上星期五
对象：语言学家(linguist ）张教授
主题：怎样才能提高英语口语
基本信息：(1)朗读能提高口语能力，有助于英语听说读写语言技能的培养；(2)朗读
是记忆的基础，会使词语的音、形、义得到加强和巩固；(3)朗读是用清晰，响亮的声
音，把书面文字转化为有声语言。

专家建议：(1)早上晨读30分钟～1小时；(2)朗读单词、短文、诗歌、课文；诵读名
言、格言、警句(epigram)；唱英语歌曲；(3) 举办英语晚会，英文歌曲比赛，英文剧
表演。

According to Professor Zhang，reading English aloud can not only help us improve our oral ability but also develop our language skills，such as listening，speaking，reading and writing. This is because reading aloud，which is the basis of memory，can make the sound，form and meaning of an English word strengthened and consolidated.
Therefore，the linguist suggested that for thirty minutes or an hour in the morning we should read English words，passages，poems and texts，recite famous English sayings and mottos and even sing English songs. He also recommended that we should hold English evenings，English song competitions，and English drama performances.(虚拟语气)

Mrs. Li, our English teacher, has found it strange on Teachers' Day: she did not receive a single greeting card from us students. She would have never thought a complete surprise was waiting for her.
As Teachers' Day was approaching, our class decided to hold a party to celebrate the important day for a change this year. On the afternoon of September 10, some of us decorated our classroom with paper flowers and balloons, and others went to buy cakes, drinks and fruits. The blackboard was decorated with beautiful words, which read“Happy Teachers' Day!”
Entering the classroom, Ms. Li was surprised to find we were standing in line, clapping hands and saying loudly "Happy Teachers' Day!" Wang Hua, our monitor, presented her with the prepared flowers. Some of the girls sang songs for Ms. Li, and three boys showed their kung fu talent. Before we left, we enjoyed a new English song by Ms. Li.
Ms. Li spent a wonderful time with us, but we know that we cannot thank her enough for all her hard work and guidance.

Dear Tom,
How’s everything going with you? I’m writing to tell you an important thing happening in our school.
Last week a group of people from our Friendly School in U.S. paid a visit to our school. I was so lucky to be the interpreter to keep the guests company. I showed them around our school, during which they visited the modernized library and watched a wonderful concert. Both sides introduced the history and the latest development of their own school to each other and made a detailed plan for the future cooperation.
Through this unforgettable experience, I’ve learned that we can’t attach too much importance to interschool exchange, which enables us teenagers to know more about the outside world.
Dear friend, welcome to China and I’ll feel honoured to be your guide!
Best wishes!
Yours truly,
Li Hua

A Big Earthquake
On August 3, 2014, an earthquake struck /hit Ludian, Yunnan Province, which shocked the whole country.
None of the people there had experienced such a terrible earthquake like that before. The earthquake caused the death of more than 700 people and 9000 injuries in all. Many of the victims had no time to escape and were buried under the collapsed buildings and it also caused at least a loss of 30 million Yuan. Thousands of soldiers, doctors and volunteers as well as local people took part in the rescue. At the same time, food, drinking water, medicine and clothes were sent there immediately.
I think the people there are sure to overcome the natural disaster and their life will pick up.
Useful expression
pick up vi.身体恢复，康复, 生活好转。
