Module 1 Unit One The flight was late.Lingling: Welcome back, everyone!Betty: Hi Lingling! How was your holiday?Lingling: Not bad! I went to Henan Province. But the trip back was very long. The train was full of people, and I had to stand for over six hours.Betty: Bad luck. Where's Tony?Daming: He's staying with his family in the UK, and flying back tomorrow. The flights were late today.Betty: Why is travel so difficult in winter?Lingling: Well, it's the busiest season in China because of Spring Festival. Where did you go, Daming?Daming: We flew to Hong Kong—and the flight was late! But we took the boat to Landau Island and went to Disneyland.Lingling: How about you, Betty?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 went for a long walk.Daming: And now, better get back to work ... We've got exams at the end of the 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!Unit Two Excuse Me. You're Sitting in My Seat!The train to Beijing! Lin often dreamed about the train, and about going to the 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 One It was great to see her again.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.Betty: Did you do anything interesting while you were there? Did you visit her 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! Tony: 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 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: Both schools are very nice. And neither school has anything the other 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! Unit Two What’s the best thing about school?My School LifeMy name is Sally Maxwell, and I'm 15. I've been at Park School, London since I 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 andTechnology 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 One People are healthier today. Betty's mum: It's getting late, Betty.Betty: Nearly finished! I'm doing a composition: Is life today better or worse than it was 50 years ago?Betty's mum: And what do you think?Betty: I think it's better. The most important difference is that people are healthier today, and they live longer than they did in the past. Betty's mum: That's true. The advantage is that we know more about medicine today. We're better at preventing illness. But people don't eat as well as in the past, and don't take as much exercise as they did.Betty: I suppose that's because public transport is much better today. Betty's mum: Yes, I agree. People walk or use their bikes less, and they're lazier. Faster transport also makes more pollution. And that makes life more dangerous and less healthy.Betty: What about work? People don't have to work as hard as they worked 50 years ago.Betty's mum: Yes, but no one ever says they have too much free time! I also think 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.Betty: That's a good idea. Talking of free time, don't forget I'm going on the school trip next month, and the theatre visit.Betty's mum: Good! You'll be more relaxed and less nervous before your exams.Unit Two We weren’t very rich, but we were happy.Life in the PastMrs Li is over 70 years old, and has lived in Beijing all her life. I asked her about life today and in the past.Tell me about your parents, brothers and sisters.My parents, my sister and three brothers lived in a small house beside a restaurant. We weren't very rich, but we were happy. My sister was the eldest child and she left school when she was only 12 to help my mother at home.Families have changed a lot since I was young. They were much bigger in those days. Most of my friends had lots of brothers and sisters. Today most people only have one child!Did your parents have jobs?My father went out to work. He was a factory worker, and he often worked 12 hours a day. My mum wanted to work. She was a teacher before she met my father. Looking after us was a full-time job, so she stayed at home. Today it's normal for married women to go out to work, but it was less common in the past. My father had the same job the whole of his working life. These days people change their jobs much more often.What was life like at home?Well, I remember the family meals, three times a day. My mother was always cooking for us. We weren't rich but we ate enough. And the food was always freshly cooked—my mother never bought ready-made food as people do today, so it was much better for us. And of course we didn't have television, so we played games together and read a lot. I helped my younger brother with his homework in the evenings.Where did you meet your husband?I first met him 60 years ago. I was carrying some heavy bags on my bike and I fell off! He stopped and picked up my bags. My parents liked him, and thought he came from a good family so we got married a year later. I was only 19. These days most couples meet at work, and they just hope their parents will be happy for them if they marry.Has Beijing changed?Yes, there are lots more buildings and so much more traffic! I can't believe the number of cars on the streets. But I suppose it's the same everywhere. And I walk less these days and take the bus more.And do you think life is better today?Well, I think so. I'm healthier than I've ever been. We live longer and we eat better. One day I'll be talking to your own grandchildren!Module 4 Unit One I really like these shoes. 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!Lingling: How about that new shopping centre in Wangfujing? You know, turn left and go along Wangfujing, and it's on the right.Betty: Sure. We'll go by bus, OK? And have you decided what to wear to the school leavers' party?Lingling: I've got a really nice long dress. What about you?Betty: I'll probably wear a dress, too, but I need some shoes. OK, I'll meet 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 assistant: No, I don't think so. But we've got some overcoats over here. Come 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.Unit Two What helps you choose the clothes you like?Looking Cool.What do you look for when you go shopping for clothes? Do you choose 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 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 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 ... 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 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 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 money better.Unit Three Language in useSelling Without Advertisements1. Advertisements are everywhere! They're on the radio and TV, in newspapers and magazines, on buses and buildings. They're on websites and mobile phones. Companies give their products to film stars, pop stars and sports stars to wear or use so that fans will buy them in order to copy the stars.2. Advertisements have become so common that they aren't working any more. We don't like advertisements, so we try not to see them. We turn off the ads on our computers, we refuse to watch them on TV, or read them in magazines. We no longer notice the posters all around us. We don't copy the stars because we know they don't really like the things they advertise.3. This means that advertising companies need a new way to sell. They can't make their products "cool" by advertising. Advertisements aren't cool, and teenagers won't buy the things in ads just because the ads say they are fashionable. The latest way to advertise is not to advertise.4. Instead of using stars, companies are using teenagers. They pay them to tell their friends about new products. Teenagers don't want to dress like everyone else and buy the things that everyone else has. They want to look different and create their own style. Teenagers don't think it's cool to copy the stars or buy things they've seen in ads.5. Getting people to talk about products is the best way to advertise. When teenagers talk about products, their friends become interested and want to buy them. When "cool" teenagers wear clothes, they make them fashionable, so their friends want to wear them, too.。

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 si t 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.。

Module 1 Unit One The flight was late.Lingling: Welcome back, everyone!Betty: Hi Lingling! How was your holiday?Lingling: Not bad! I went to Henan Province. But the trip back was very long. The train was full of people, and I had to stand for over six hours.Betty: Bad luck. Where's Tony?Daming: He's staying with his family in the UK, and flying back tomorrow. The flights were late today.Betty: Why is travel so difficult in winter?Lingling: Well, it's the busiest season in China because of Spring Festival. Where did you go, Daming?Daming: We flew to Hong Kong—and the flight was late! But we took the boat to Landau Island and went to Disneyland.Lingling: How about you, Betty?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 went for a long walk.Daming: And now, better get back to work ... We've got exams at the end of the 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!Unit Two Excuse Me. You're Sitting in My Seat!The train to Beijing! Lin often dreamed about the train, and about going to the 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 One It was great to see her again.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.Betty: Did you do anything interesting while you were there? Did you visit her 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! Tony: 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 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: Both schools are very nice. And neither school has anything the other 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! Unit Two What’s the best thing about school?My School LifeMy name is Sally Maxwell, and I'm 15. I've been at Park School, London since I 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 andTechnology 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 One People are healthier today. Betty's mum: It's getting late, Betty.Betty: Nearly finished! I'm doing a composition: Is life today better or worse than it was 50 years ago?Betty's mum: And what do you think?Betty: I think it's better. The most important difference is that people are healthier today, and they live longer than they did in the past. Betty's mum: That's true. The advantage is that we know more about medicine today. We're better at preventing illness. But people don't eat as well as in the past, and don't take as much exercise as they did.Betty: I suppose that's because public transport is much better today. Betty's mum: Yes, I agree. People walk or use their bikes less, and they're lazier. Faster transport also makes more pollution. And that makes life more dangerous and less healthy.Betty: What about work? People don't have to work as hard as they worked 50 years ago.Betty's mum: Yes, but no one ever says they have too much free time! I also think 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.Betty: That's a good idea. Talking of free time, don't forget I'm going on the school trip next month, and the theatre visit.Betty's mum: Good! You'll be more relaxed and less nervous before your exams.Unit Two We weren’t very rich, but we were happy.Life in the PastMrs Li is over 70 years old, and has lived in Beijing all her life. I asked her about life today and in the past.Tell me about your parents, brothers and sisters.My parents, my sister and three brothers lived in a small house beside a restaurant. We weren't very rich, but we were happy. My sister was the eldest child and she left school when she was only 12 to help my mother at home.Families have changed a lot since I was young. They were much bigger in those days. Most of my friends had lots of brothers and sisters. Today most people only have one child!Did your parents have jobs?My father went out to work. He was a factory worker, and he often worked 12 hours a day. My mum wanted to work. She was a teacher before she met my father. Looking after us was a full-time job, so she stayed at home. Today it's normal for married women to go out to work, but it was less common in the past. My father had the same job the whole of his working life. These days people change their jobs much more often.What was life like at home?Well, I remember the family meals, three times a day. My mother was always cooking for us. We weren't rich but we ate enough. And the food was always freshly cooked—my mother never bought ready-made food as people do today, so it was much better for us. And of course we didn't have television, so we played games together and read a lot. I helped my younger brother with his homework in the evenings.Where did you meet your husband?I first met him 60 years ago. I was carrying some heavy bags on my bike and I fell off! He stopped and picked up my bags. My parents liked him, and thought he came from a good family so we got married a year later. I was only 19. These days most couples meet at work, and they just hope their parents will be happy for them if they marry.Has Beijing changed?Yes, there are lots more buildings and so much more traffic! I can't believe the number of cars on the streets. But I suppose it's the same everywhere. And I walk less these days and take the bus more.And do you think life is better today?Well, I think so. I'm healthier than I've ever been. We live longer and we eat better. One day I'll be talking to your own grandchildren!Module 4 Unit One I really like these shoes. 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!Lingling: How about that new shopping centre in Wangfujing? You know, turn left and go along Wangfujing, and it's on the right.Betty: Sure. We'll go by bus, OK? And have you decided what to wear to the school leavers' party?Lingling: I've got a really nice long dress. What about you?Betty: I'll probably wear a dress, too, but I need some shoes. OK, I'll meet 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 assistant: No, I don't think so. But we've got some overcoats over here. Come 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.Unit Two What helps you choose the clothes you like?Looking Cool.What do you look for when you go shopping for clothes? Do you choose 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 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 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 ... 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 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 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 money better.Unit Three Language in useSelling Without Advertisements1. Advertisements are everywhere! They're on the radio and TV, in newspapers and magazines, on buses and buildings. They're on websites and mobile phones. Companies give their products to film stars, pop stars and sports stars to wear or use so that fans will buy them in order to copy the stars.2. Advertisements have become so common that they aren't working any more. We don't like advertisements, so we try not to see them. We turn off the ads on our computers, we refuse to watch them on TV, or read them in magazines. We no longer notice the posters all around us. We don't copy the stars because we know they don't really like the things they advertise.3. This means that advertising companies need a new way to sell. They can't make their products "cool" by advertising. Advertisements aren't cool, and teenagers won't buy the things in ads just because the ads say they are fashionable. The latest way to advertise is not to advertise.4. Instead of using stars, companies are using teenagers. They pay them to tell their friends about new products. Teenagers don't want to dress like everyone else and buy the things that everyone else has. They want to look different and create their own style. Teenagers don't think it's cool to copy the stars or buy things they've seen in ads.5. Getting people to talk about products is the best way to advertise. When teenagers talk about products, their friends become interested and want to buy them. When "cool" teenagers wear clothes, they make them fashionable, so their friends want to wear them, too.。

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.Unit Two What helps you choose the clothes you likeLooking Cool.What do you look for when you go shopping for clothes Do you choose 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 likeEveryone 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 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 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 ... 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 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 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 money better.Unit Three Language in useSelling Without A dvertisements1. Advertisements are everywhere! They're on the radio and TV, in newspapers and magazines, on buses and buildings. They're on websites and mobile phones. Companies give their products to film stars, pop stars and sports stars to wear or use so that fans will buy them in order to copy the stars.2. Advertisements have become so common that they aren't working any more. We don't like advertisements, so we try not to see them. We turn off the ads on our computers, we refuse to watch them on TV, or read them in magazines. We no longer notice the posters all around us. We don't copy the stars because we know they don't really like the things they advertise.3. This means that advertising companies need a new way to sell. They can't make their products "cool" by advertising. Advertisements aren't cool, and teenagers won't buy the things in ads just because the ads say they are fashionable. The latest way to advertise is not to advertise.4. Instead of using stars, companies are using teenagers. They pay them to tell their friends about new products. Teenagers don't want to dress like everyone else and buy the things that everyone else has. They want to look different and create their own style. Teenagers don't think it's cool to copy the stars or buy things they've seen in ads.5. Getting people to talk about products is the best way to advertise. When teenagers talk about products, their friends become interested and want to buy them. When "cool" teenagers wear clothes, they make them fashionable, so their friends want to wear them, too.。

You're Sitting in My Seat!The train to Beijing! Lin often dreamed about the train, and about going to the 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 1Listen 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.Betty: Did you do anything interesting while you were there? Did you visit herschool?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!Tony: Most classes have got a computer and Internet. And there are a fewscience laboratories, and a large library. And there's a swimming pool and 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: Both schools are very nice. And neither school has anything the otherhasn'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 2Read the passage and write a short title for each photo.My School LifeMy name is Sally Maxwell, and I'm 15. I've been at Park School, London since Iwas 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 isa 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 1Listen and read.Betty'smum: It's getting late, Betty.Betty: Nearly finished! I'm doing a composition: Is life today better or worse than it was 50 years ago ?Betty'smum: And what do you think?Betty: I think it's better. The most important difference is that people arehealthier today, and they live longer than they did in the past.Betty's mum: That's true. The advantage is that we know more about medicine today.We're better at preventing illness . But people don't eat as well as in the past, and don't take as much exercise as they did.Betty: I suppose that's because public transport is much better today.Betty's mum: Yes, I agree. People walk or use their bikes less, and they're lazier. Faster transport also makes more pollution. And that makes life more dangerous and less healthy.Betty: What about work? People don't have to work as hard as they worked 50years ago.Betty's Yes, but no one ever says they have too much free time! I also thinkmum: schoolchildren today work harder than we ever did.Betty: Yes, but I really want to do my best.Betty'smum: Why don't you ask Mrs Li downstairs? She's seen how life has changed.Betty: That's a good idea. Talking of free time, don't forget I'm going on theschool trip next month, and the theatre visit.Betty'smum: Good! You'll be more relaxed and less nervous before your exams.Module 3 Unit 2Read this sentence from the passage.

Before we can enjoy ourselves on the Great Wall, there are a few rules and suggestions. OK?All: Yes, Mr Jackson.Mr Jackson: First, you must keep to the path. You mustn't walk along the edge because you might fall and hurt yourself. Is that clear?All: Yes.Mr Jackson: And you have to keep together. You mustn't go off on your own, because you might get lost.All: No, Mr Jackson.Daming: Can we have something to eat now? I'm starving!Mr Jackson: No, you can't, Daming! You only had breakfast an hour ago. I think we should start walking, and then stop at noon for our picnic. But you shouldn't drink all the water, because you may need some later.Betty: Can we go rock climbing?Mr Jackson: Yes, you can, but you must use ropes. You have to think about personal safety! And you must have the right shoes. OK, I think that's all. Let's godown this path, and then we can cross the stream and climb up to the topof that mountain. Then we can take a look across the countryside ... Daming: ... and have lunch?Mr Jackson: ... and then walk along that part of the wall, up there. Come on! I'll lead the way.Daming: I feel tired already. I may need a rest very soon.Module 5 Unit 2Look 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 tentshould 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!On our first evening, the three of us were tired after walking for about eight 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 1Listen and answer the questions. Use the words in the box to help you. accident; ache; blood; fever; flu; ground; knee; shoulder; stomach; wound1.Has Tony's dad ever had serious accidents?2. What parts of his body did he hurt?3.

My legs are aching. How far have we walked?Mr Jackson: About 10 kilometres. Let's wait for the others. They'll catch up in a few minutes.Lingling: Who's missing ?Betty: Tony and Daming. What's happened to them?Lingling: They were walking more slowly than us.Mr Jackson: And look at those clouds! I think it's going to rain. I'll go back and look for them.Betty: Wait a minute! I can hear someone.Tony: Help!Lingling: It's Tony. Where have you been?Tony: It's Daming. He has had an accident. He was running along the wall whenhe tripped and fell over the edge. He's cut his head; his shoulder hurtsand I think he's broken his leg.MrJackson: When did he fall?Tony: About 10 minutes ago.Mr Jackson: OK, show me where he is. I'll call for help on my mobile.(Later )Tony: There he is, lying on the ground!MrJackson: 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.MrJackson: Can you move your foot?Daming: Yes. Ouch! But I can't walk.MrJackson: We had better get you to hospital.Lingling: Will he live?Mr Jackson: Of course he will! He's got a wound in his leg and he may get a fever but 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 3Read the passage. Which paragraphs describe what you can see in the pictures?Six Rules for a Safe and Healthy LifeThanks to 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 1Look at the party invitation and answer the questions.InvitationYou're invited tothe School Leavers' Partyon Saturday 30th May at 5 p.m.in the school hallBring a traditional dish—"finger food"Music and dancing1. 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?Betty: After the visit to the play by Shakespeare. It'll be held on 30th May. We're 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.Betty: And everyone has been told to prepare a traditional dish from our own countries.Lingling: Will we be allowed to cook it at school, or must it be made at home, and brought here?Betty: I suppose it can be heated up in the school kitchen, but it should be cooked 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.Betty: But the invitation says finger food! That means you have to eat it with your 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 2Read the passage. What are the most surprising pieces of information about meals and eating customs in the West?Do as the Romans DoThere's a 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 aspoon . 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 ?Tony: The fight between the two families and their servants ! And the actorswho played the roles of Romeo and Juliet were superb ! But it's sad atthe end, because Juliet loves Romeo, but her father has decided shemust 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?Tony: Well, it was hard to see the play at the back. The best place to sit is inthe front row .Tony'smum: Could you hear the dialogue ?Tony: I guessed what they were saying, but their voices weren't very loud.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'smum: Did you have anything to eat before you went to the theatre?Tony: No such luck! I was starving!Module 8 Unit 2Look at the photo and say what type of entertainment or sport you can see.• basketball• jazz• movies• ...。

Module 1 Unit One The flight was late.Lingling: Welcome back, everyone!Betty: Hi Lingling! How was your holiday?Lingling: Not bad! I went to Henan Province. But the trip back was very long. The train was full of people, and I had to stand for over six hours.Betty: Bad luck. Where's Tony?Daming: He's staying with his family in the UK, and flying back tomorrow. The flights were late today.Betty: Why is travel so difficult in winter?Lingling: Well, it's the busiest season in China because of Spring Festival. Where did you go, Daming?Daming: We flew to Hong Kong—and the flight was late! But we took the boat to Landau Island and went to Disneyland.Lingling: How about you, Betty?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 went for a long walk.Daming: And now, better get back to work ... We've got exams at the end of the 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!Unit Two Excuse Me. You're Sitting in My Seat! The train to Beijing! Lin often dreamed about the train, and about going to the 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."1Lin 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 One It was great to see her again.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.Betty: Did you do anything interesting while you were there? Did you visit her 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!Tony: 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 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: Both schools are very nice. And neither school has anything the other 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! Unit Two What’s the best thing about school?My School LifeMy name is Sally Maxwell, and I'm 15. I've been at Park School, London since I 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.2The 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 One People are healthier today. Betty's mum: It's getting late, Betty.Betty: Nearly finished! I'm doing a composition: Is life today better or worse than it was 50 years ago?Betty's mum: And what do you think?Betty: I think it's better. The most important difference is that people are healthier today, and they live longer than they did in the past.Betty's mum: That's true. The advantage is that we know more about medicine today. We're better at preventing illness. But people don't eat as well as in the past, and don't take as much exercise as they did.Betty: I suppose that's because public transport is much better today. Betty's mum: Yes, I agree. People walk or use their bikes less, and they're lazier. Faster transport also makes more pollution. And that makes life more dangerous and less healthy.Betty: What about work? People don't have to work as hard as they worked 50 years ago.Betty's mum: Yes, but no one ever says they have too much free time! I also think 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.Betty: That's a good idea. Talking of free time, don't forget I'm going on the school trip next month, and the theatre visit.Betty's mum: Good! You'll be more relaxed and less nervous before your exams.3Unit Two We weren’t very rich, but we were happy.Life in the PastMrs Li is over 70 years old, and has lived in Beijing all her life. I asked her about life today and in the past.Tell me about your parents, brothers and sisters.My parents, my sister and three brothers lived in a small house beside a restaurant. We weren't very rich, but we were happy. My sister was the eldest child and she left school when she was only 12 to help my mother at home.Families have changed a lot since I was young. They were much bigger in those days. Most of my friends had lots of brothers and sisters. Today most people only have one child!Did your parents have jobs?My father went out to work. He was a factory worker, and he often worked 12 hours a day. My mum wanted to work. She was a teacher before she met my father. Looking after us was a full-time job, so she stayed at home. Today it's normal for married women to go out to work, but it was less common in the past. My father had the same job the whole of his working life. These days people change their jobs much more often.What was life like at home? Well, I remember the family meals, three times a day. My mother was always cooking for us. We weren't rich but we ate enough. And the food was always freshly cooked—my mother never bought ready-made food as people do today, so it was much better for us. And of course we didn't have television, so we played games together and read a lot. I helped my younger brother with his homework in the evenings.Where did you meet your husband?I first met him 60 years ago. I was carrying some heavy bags on my bike and I fell off! He stopped and picked up my bags. My parents liked him, and thought he came from a good family so we got married a year later. I was only 19.These days most couples meet at work, and they just hope their parents will be happy for them if they marry.Has Beijing changed?Yes, there are lots more buildings and so much more traffic! I can't believe the number of cars on the streets. But I suppose it's the same everywhere. And I walk less these days and take the bus more.And do you think life is better today?Well, I think so. I'm healthier than I've ever been. We live longer and we eat better. One day I'll be talking to your own grandchildren!Module 4 Unit One I really like these shoes. Lingling: I'm really looking forward to the Shakespeare play.4Betty: 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!Lingling: How about that new shopping centre in Wangfujing? You know, turn left and go along Wangfujing, and it's on the right.Betty: Sure. We'll go by bus, OK? And have you decided what to wear to the school leavers' party?Lingling: I've got a really nice long dress. What about you?Betty: I'll probably wear a dress, too, but I need some shoes. OK, I'll meet 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 assistant: No, I don't think so. But we've got some overcoats over here. Come 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.Unit Two What helps you choose the clothes you like?Looking Cool.What do you look for when you go shopping for clothes? Do you choose 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 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 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 ... 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 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 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 friends5wear the same clothes as you do? And then think that maybe some of us could spend our money better.Unit Three Language in useSelling Without Advertisements1. Advertisements are everywhere! They're on the radio and TV, in newspapers and magazines, on buses and buildings. They're on websites and mobile phones. Companies give their products to film stars, pop stars and sports stars to wear or use so that fans will buy them in order to copy the stars.2. Advertisements have become so common that they aren't working any more. We don't like advertisements, so we try not to see them. We turn off the ads on our computers, we refuse to watch them on TV, or read them in magazines. We no longer notice the posters all around us. We don't copy the stars because we know they don't really like the things they advertise.3. This means that advertising companies need a new way to sell. They can't make their products "cool" by advertising. Advertisements aren't cool, and teenagers won't buy the things in ads just because the ads say they are fashionable. The latest way to advertise is not to advertise.4. Instead of using stars, companies are using teenagers. They pay them to tell their friends about new products. Teenagers don't want to dress like everyone else and buy the things that everyone else has. They want to look different and create their own style. Teenagers don't think it's cool to copy the stars or buy things they've seen in ads.5. Getting people to talk about products is the best way to advertise. When teenagers talk about products, their friends become interested and want to buy them. When "cool"teenagers wear clothes, they make them fashionable, so their friends want to wear them, too.1、《山中》唐·王勃长江悲已滞,万里念将归。

We don't copy the stars because we know they don't really like the things they advertise.3. This means that advertising companies need a new way to sell. They can't make their products "cool" by advertising.Advertisements aren't cool, and teenagers won't buy the things in ads just because the ads say they are fashionable. The latest way to advertise is not to advertise.4. Instead of using stars, companies are using teenagers.They pay them to tell their friends about new products. Teenagers don't want to dress like everyone else and buy the things thateveryone else has. They want to look different and create their own style. Teenagers don't think it's cool to copy the stars or buy things they've seen in ads.5. Getting people to talk about products is the best way toadvertise. When teenagers talk about products, their friendsbecome interested and want to buy them. When "cool"teenagers wear clothes, they make them fashionable, so their friends want to wear them, too.17。

Module 1 Unit One The flight was late.Lingling: Welcome back, everyone!Betty: Hi Lingling! How was your holiday?Lingling: Not bad! I went to Henan Province. But the trip back was very long. The train was full of people, and I had to stand for over six hours.Betty: Bad luck. Where's Tony?Daming: He's staying with his family in the UK, and flying back tomorrow. The flights were late today.Betty: Why is travel so difficult in winter?Lingling: Well, it's the busiest season in China because of Spring Festival. Where did you go, Daming?Daming: We flew to Hong Kong—and the flight was late! But we took the boat to Landau Island and went to Disneyland.Lingling: How about you, Betty?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 went for a long walk.Daming: And now, better get back to work ... We've got exams at the end of the 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!Unit Two Excuse Me. You're Sitting in My Seat!The train to Beijing! Lin often dreamed about the train, and about going to the 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 One It was great to see her again.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.Betty: Did you do anything interesting while you were there? Did you visit her 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!Tony: 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 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: Both schools are very nice. And neither school has anything the other 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! Unit Two What’s the best thing about school?My School LifeMy name is Sally Maxwell, and I'm 15. I've been at Park School, London since I 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 One People are healthier today. Betty's mum: It's getting late, Betty.Betty: Nearly finished! I'm doing a composition: Is life today better or worse than it was 50 years ago?Betty's mum: And what do you think?Betty: I think it's better. The most important difference is that people are healthier today, and they live longer than they did in the past.Betty's mum: That's true. The advantage is that we know more about medicine today. We're better at preventing illness. But people don't eat as well as in the past, and don't take as much exercise as they did.Betty: I suppose that's because public transport is much better today. Betty's mum: Yes, I agree. People walk or use their bikes less, and they're lazier. Faster transport also makes more pollution. And that makes life more dangerous and less healthy.Betty: What about work? People don't have to work as hard as they worked 50 years ago. Betty's mum: Yes, but no one ever says they have too much free time! I also think 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.Betty: That's a good idea. Talking of free time, don't forget I'm going on the school trip next month, and the theatre visit.Betty's mum: Good! You'll be more relaxed and less nervous before your exams.Unit Two We weren’t very rich, but we were happy.Life in the PastMrs Li is over 70 years old, and has lived in Beijing all her life. I asked her about life today and in the past.Tell me about your parents, brothers and sisters.My parents, my sister and three brothers lived in a small house beside a restaurant. We weren't very rich, but we were happy. My sister was the eldest child and she left school when she was only 12 to help my mother at home.Families have changed a lot since I was young. They were much bigger in those days. Most of my friends had lots of brothers and sisters. Today most people only have one child!Did your parents have jobs?My father went out to work. He was a factory worker, and he often worked 12 hours a day. My mum wanted to work. She was a teacher before shemet my father. Looking after us was a full-time job, so she stayed at home.Today it's normal for married women to go out to work, but it was less common in the past. My father had the same job the whole of his working life. These days people change their jobs much more often.What was life like at home?Well, I remember the family meals, three times a day. My mother was always cooking for us. We weren't rich but we ate enough. And the food was always freshly cooked—my mother never bought ready-made food as people do today, so it was much better for us. And of course we didn't have television, so we played games together and read a lot. I helped my younger brother with his homework in the evenings.Where did you meet your husband?I first met him 60 years ago. I was carrying some heavy bags on my bike and I fell off! He stopped and picked up my bags. My parents liked him, and thought he came from a good family so we got married a year later. I was only 19.These days most couples meet at work, and they just hope their parents will be happy for them if they marry.Has Beijing changed?Yes, there are lots more buildings and so much more traffic! I can't believe the number of cars on the streets. But I suppose it's the same everywhere. And I walk less these days and take the bus more.And do you think life is better today?Well, I think so. I'm healthier than I've ever been. We live longer and we eat better. One day I'll be talking to your own grandchildren!Module 4 Unit One I really like these shoes. 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!Lingling: How about that new shopping centre in Wangfujing? You know, turn left and go along Wangfujing, and it's on the right.Betty: Sure. We'll go by bus, OK? And have you decided what to wear to the school leavers' party?Lingling: I've got a really nice long dress. What about you?Betty: I'll probably wear a dress, too, but I need some shoes. OK, I'll meet 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 assistant: No, I don't think so. But we've got some overcoats over here. Come 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.Unit Two What helps you choose the clothes you like?Looking Cool.What do you look for when you go shopping for clothes? Do you choose something fashionable ... or comfortable? Do you like to look different? Or do you wear the same clothes as your friends? Do you go forthis 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 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 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 ... 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 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 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 money better.Unit Three Language in useSelling Without Advertisements1. Advertisements are everywhere! They're on the radio and TV, in newspapers and magazines, on buses and buildings. They're on websites and mobile phones. Companies give their products to film stars, pop stars and sports stars to wear or use so that fans will buy them in order to copy the stars.2. Advertisements have become so common that they aren't working any more. We don't like advertisements, so we try not to see them. We turn off the ads on our computers, we refuse to watch them on TV, or read them in magazines. We no longer notice the posters all around us. We don't copy the stars because we know they don't really like the things they advertise.3. This means that advertising companies need a new way to sell. They can't make their products "cool" by advertising. Advertisements aren't cool, and teenagers won't buy the things in ads just because the ads say they are fashionable. The latest way to advertise is not to advertise.4. Instead of using stars, companies are using teenagers. They pay them to tell their friends about new products. Teenagers don't want to dress like everyone else and buy the things that everyone else has. They want to look different and create their own style. Teenagers don't think it's cool to copy the stars or buy things they've seen in ads.5. Getting people to talk about products is the best way to advertise. When teenagers talk about products, their friends become interested and want to buy them. When "cool" teenagers wear clothes, they make them fashionable, so their friends want to wear them, too.。

And there are a few science laboratories, and a large library. And there's a swimming pool and 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: Both schools are very nice. And neither school has anything the other 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! Unit Two What’s the best thing about school?My School LifeMy name is Sally Maxwell, and I'm 15. I've been at Park School, London since I 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 One People are healthier today. Betty's mum: It's getting late, Betty.Betty: Nearly finished! I'm doing a composition: Is life today better or worse than it was 50 years ago?Betty's mum: And what do you think?Betty: I think it's better. The most important difference is that people are healthier today, and they live longer than they did in the past.Betty's mum: That's true. The advantage is that we know more about medicine today. We're better at preventing illness. But people don't eat as well as in the past, and don't take as much exercise as they did.Betty: I suppose that's because public transport is much better today. Betty's mum: Yes, I agree. People walk or use their bikes less, and they're lazier. Faster transport also makes more pollution. And that makes life more dangerous and less healthy.Betty: What about work? People don't have to work as hard as they worked 50 years ago. Betty's mum: Yes, but no one ever says they have too much free time! I also think 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.Betty: That's a good idea. Talking of free time, don't forget I'm going on the school trip next month, and the theatre visit.Betty's mum: Good! You'll be more relaxed and less nervous before your exams.Unit Two We weren’t very rich, but we were happy.Life in the PastMrs Li is over 70 years old, and has lived in Beijing all her life. I asked her about life today and in the past.Tell me about your parents, brothers and sisters.My parents, my sister and three brothers lived in a small house beside a restaurant. We weren't very rich, but we were happy. My sister was the eldest child and she left school when she was only 12 to help my mother at home.Families have changed a lot since I was young. They were much bigger in those days. Most of my friends had lots of brothers and sisters. Today most people only have one child!Did your parents have jobs?My father went out to work. He was a factory worker, and he often worked 12 hours a day. My mum wanted to work. She was a teacher before shemet my father. Looking after us was a full-time job, so she stayed at home.Today it's normal for married women to go out to work, but it was less common in the past. My father had the same job the whole of his working life. These days people change their jobs much more often.What was life like at home?Well, I remember the family meals, three times a day. My mother was always cooking for us. We weren't rich but we ate enough. And the food was always freshly cooked—my mother never bought ready-made food as people do today, so it was much better for us. And of course we didn't have television, so we played games together and read a lot. I helped my younger brother with his homework in the evenings.Where did you meet your husband?I first met him 60 years ago. I was carrying some heavy bags on my bike and I fell off! He stopped and picked up my bags. My parents liked him, and thought he came from a good family so we got married a year later. I was only 19.These days most couples meet at work, and they just hope their parents will be happy for them if they marry.Has Beijing changed?Yes, there are lots more buildings and so much more traffic! I can't believe the number of cars on the streets. But I suppose it's the same everywhere. And I walk less these days and take the bus more.And do you think life is better today?Well, I think so. I'm healthier than I've ever been. We live longer and we eat better. One day I'll be talking to your own grandchildren!Module 4 Unit One I really like these shoes. 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!Lingling: How about that new shopping centre in Wangfujing? You know, turn left and go along Wangfujing, and it's on the right.Betty: Sure. We'll go by bus, OK? And have you decided what to wear to the school leavers' party?Lingling: I've got a really nice long dress. What about you?Betty: I'll probably wear a dress, too, but I need some shoes. OK, I'll meet 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 assistant: No, I don't think so. But we've got some overcoats over here. Come 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.Unit Two What helps you choose the clothes you like?Looking Cool.What do you look for when you go shopping for clothes? Do you choose something fashionable ... or comfortable? Do you like to look different? Or do you wear the same clothes as your friends? Do you go forthis 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 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 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 ... 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 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 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 money better.Unit Three Language in useSelling Without Advertisements1. Advertisements are everywhere! They're on the radio and TV, in newspapers and magazines, on buses and buildings. They're on websites and mobile phones. Companies give their products to film stars, pop stars and sports stars to wear or use so that fans will buy them in order to copy the stars.2. Advertisements have become so common that they aren't working any more. We don't like advertisements, so we try not to see them. We turn off the ads on our computers, we refuse to watch them on TV, or read them in magazines. We no longer notice the posters all around us. We don't copy the stars because we know they don't really like the things they advertise.3. This means that advertising companies need a new way to sell. They can't make their products "cool" by advertising. Advertisements aren't cool, and teenagers won't buy the things in ads just because the ads say they are fashionable. The latest way to advertise is not to advertise.4. Instead of using stars, companies are using teenagers. They pay them to tell their friends about new products. Teenagers don't want to dress like everyone else and buy the things that everyone else has. They want to look different and create their own style. Teenagers don't think it's cool to copy the stars or buy things they've seen in ads.5. Getting people to talk about products is the best way to advertise. When teenagers talk about products, their friends become interested and want to buy them. When "cool" teenagers wear clothes, they make them fashionable, so their friends want to wear them, too.。

""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 One It was great to see her again.Betty: Hey, Tony!

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 require d 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 thi ngs, 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 happ y!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 teenager s damage their health through smoking and taking drugs than any other dangers. Think about the effecton your family and friends, and think about its effect on you and your health.。

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 1Listen 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.Betty:Did you do anything interesting while you were there? Did you visit her 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!Tony: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 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:Both schools are very nice. And neither school has anything the other 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 2Read the passage and write a short title for each photo.My School LifeMy name is Sally Maxwell, and I'm 15. I've been at Park School, London since I 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 theschool 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 1Listen and read.Betty'smum:It's getting late, Betty.Betty:Nearly finished! I'm doing a composition: Is life today better or worsethan it was 50 years ago ?Betty'smum:And what do you think?Betty:I think it's better. The most important difference is that people arehealthier today, and they live longer than they did in the past.Betty's mum:That's true. The advantage is that we know more about medicine today.We're better at preventing illness . But people don't eat as well as in thepast, and don't take as much exercise as they did.Betty:I suppose that's because public transport is much better today.Betty's mum:Yes, I agree. People walk or use their bikes less, and they're lazier.Faster transport also makes more pollution. And that makes life moredangerous and less healthy.Betty:What about work? People don't have to work as hard as they worked 50years ago.Betty's mum:Yes, but no one ever says they have too much free time! I also think schoolchildren today work harder than we ever did.Betty:Yes, but I really want to do my best.Betty'smum:Why don't you ask Mrs Li downstairs? She's seen how life has changed.Betty:That's a good idea. Talking of free time, don't forget I'm going on theschool trip next month, and the theatre visit.Betty'smum:Good! You'll be more relaxed and less nervous before your exams.Module 3 Unit 2Read this sentence from the passage.

(T)Module 4 Unit 1Listen 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!Lingling:How about that new shopping centre in Wangfujing? You know, turnleft and go along Wangfujing, and it's on the right.Betty:Sure. We'll go by bus, OK? And have you decided what to wear tothe school leavers' party?Lingling:I've got a really nice long dress. What about you?Betty:I'll probably wear a dress, too, but I need some shoes. OK, I'll meetyou 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!Shopassistant:Can I help you?Betty:Yes, do you have this jacket in blue?Shop assistant:No, I don't think so. But we've got some overcoats over here. Come 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 2Read the passage and find out what the words and expressionsmean.big name; designer clothes; logo; look coolLooking Cool1.What do you look for when you go shopping for clothes? Do you choosesomething 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 maybefilm stars are wearing these clothes? What helps you choose the clothes youlike?2.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 well-known companies. Many people even prefer them to cheaper clothes. Why?3.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 because they don't have the logo.4.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 ... and then buy the shoes. The big companies only want to make a lot of money.5.Above all, designer clothes are more popular because of clever advertising. All of the international companies spend millions of dollars every year to make us buy their clothes. And they succeed!6.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 just clever advertising.7.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 thesame clothes as you do? And then think that maybe some of us could spend our money better.Module 5 Unit 1Listen and read.Mr Jackson:OK, listen up! Before we can enjoy ourselves on the Great Wall, there are a few rules and suggestions. OK?All:Yes, Mr Jackson.Mr Jackson:First, you must keep to the path. You mustn't walk along the edge because you might fall and hurt yourself. Is that clear?All:Yes.Mr Jackson:And you have to keep together. You mustn't go off on your own, because you might get lost.All:No, Mr Jackson.Daming:Can we have something to eat now? I'm starving!Mr Jackson:No, you can't, Daming! You only had breakfast an hour ago. I think we should start walking, and then stop at noon for our picnic. But you shouldn't drink all the water, because you may need some later.Betty:Can we go rock climbing?Mr Jackson:Yes, you can, but you must use ropes. You have to think about personal 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 acrossthe countryside ... Daming:... and have lunch?Mr Jackson:... and then walk along that part of the wall, up there. Come on! I'll lead the way.Daming:I feel tired already. I may need a rest very soon.Module 5 Unit 2Look 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 tentshould 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!On our first evening, the three of us were tired after walking for about eighthours. 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 wentcold.Module 6 Unit 1Listen and answer the questions.

He's cut his head; his shoulderhurts and I think he's broken his leg.MrJackson:When did he fall?Tony:About 10 minutes ago.Mr Jackson:OK, show me where he is.

Say what the advantages ordangers are.Picture 1Picture 2Picture 3Read the passage. Which paragraphs describe what you can see inthe pictures?Six Rules for a Safe and Healthy LifeThanks to improvements in both health care and personal safety, most peopleare living healthier, longer lives. Someone who is born today can expect to live 25years longer than someone who was born in the 19th century. It's even thoughtthat 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 eighthours' 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 1Look at the party invitation and answer the questions.InvitationYou're invited tothe School Leavers' Partyon Saturday 30th May at 5 p.m.in the school hallBring a traditional dish—"finger food"Music and dancing1.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?Betty:After the visit to the play by Shakespeare. It'll be held on 30th May. We're 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.Betty:And everyone has been told to prepare a traditional dish from our own countries.Lingling:Will we be allowed to cook it at school, or must it be made at home, and brought here?Betty:I suppose it can be heated up in the school kitchen, but it should be cooked 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.Betty:But the invitation says finger food! That means you have to eat it with your 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 2Read the passage. What are the most surprising pieces of information about meals and eating customs in the West?Do as the Romans DoThere's a 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?Tony:The fight between the two families and their servants! And the actors 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?Tony:Well, it was hard to see the play at the back. The best place to sit is in the front row.Tony'smum:Could you hear the dialogue?Tony:I guessed what they were saying, but their voices weren't very loud. 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'smum:Did you have anything to eat before you went to the theatre?Tony:No such luck! I was starving!Module 8 Unit 2Look 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 totalk about the photo.。
