What happened on the first day when you came to our school?
What left you with the deepest impression the first day you came to our school?
→Step 3 Welcome to the unit
Picture one
We can see a wide playground and some low-rise buildings in the picture. From it we can see that the campus is a huge one, and it is larger than the normal high schools in cities of China. But the buildings there are lower than those of China. Maybe most of them have only one or two floors. We think that it is because in China we have a large population, so the local government cannot afford to provide as large an area as that in the UK for each high school.
From our points of view, larger schools are better for the school activities of our students than the crowded ones.
Picture two
We can see a lot of lockers in the picture as we often notice in the movies about
school life in the west. We like the idea that we can have a locker of our own. We can keep our secret or things in it, such as the posters of my favourite stars, our diary and our letters as well.
