第一单元-clozeHow can student do well at school ? Are straight-A students always those who are the brightest? Students are very interesting in getting answers to questions like these as achieving academic excellence is , and will always be, one of their top priorties at school.A professor of education who has recently conducted a survey on the subject revealed that top grades do not always go to the brightest students . When some basic principles are followed, everyone can become a top student.to begin with, study should always be the number one priority for a student. Study time is always guaranteed and should never be compromised for personal recreation such as movies, tv programs or snacks. In addition, learning to be organized is very important. Keeping everything in its place and filing class notes in order are two good examples.Speaking up in class and asking questions is another winning formula. A student can clarify any doubts by asking questions. Particpation in group study is another help. by framing tentative test questions based on class notes, students can help each other prepare for tests. Last but not least, always hand in neat work. A student who turns in nest work is already on the way to scoring an A.A student may suffer from different kinds of pressure at school, but if he follows these principles in his studies, sooner or later he will become a top student.第二单元-clozeMany of us these days are learning language a foreign language. We are interesting in learning another language because we know that knowledge of another language and culture will increase our career opportunities, broaden our horizons and enrich our life. Since learning a foreign language is of such importance, no doubt people are constantly looking for more efficient ways of language learning. Most people say the best way to learn language is to say in the country where it is spoken. It is true those who go to a native country have advantage over those who don't . But living abroad needs money, and not everyone can affort to do so. Those who don't go abroad may turn to language schools for nguage schools usually claim that they can teach student to speak the language they want to learn fluently within 3 to 6 months because they have more qualified teachers and better facilities. To a certain extent, a good teacher is indeed important in language learning, but it would be ridiculous to claim that any teacher has discovered a perfect way of teaching English in every possible situation. In fact, there are as many good methods of teaching a language as there are good teachers,because every teacher is an individual with his / her own personality. What a student needs to remember then is to is to find out a method that best suits himself / herself.第四单元-clozeWhen I was a child, I was really proud of heaving a father who was a well-respected doctor. I beamed whenever my teachers said that I was set to become an honorableman like my father. However, all this changed when I grew into a teenager. I felt awkward that everybody around me only remembered me as Dr.Song's son. I protested and told them that I would prefer to stand on my own two feet. However, my compliments were never taken seriously and I continued to hear compliments about me, which were really meant for my father.I then grew very stubborn and even refused to call my father "Dad." Although my father forwned whenever I called him "Lao Song" my attitude towards him, as now recall, did not change until I had a car accident one day. I hit a young man's car and panicked as he threatened to beat me up when I told him no car insurance. When I got off my car and surveyed the damage, I could not help groaning.Out of fear, I told him "I'm Dr.Song's son." At this, a sign of recognition lit up his face; he smiled and forgave me. What could have been a very difficult situation turned out to be fine just because I was Dr.Song's son. How thankful I felt towards my father.第五单元-clozeWhen a person is born, he / she has a set of personalities that make him / her different from others. Psychologists believe that colors are sometimes a good way to include how a person behaves and the way he / she responds to things that are happening to him / her. They can also represent personality traits.Nonetheless, we cannot be absolutely sure about a person's characteristics by just looking at his / her preference for certain colors.Therefore, we should not be harsh and critical toward a person just because he / she likes specific color that not represent some positive traits or characteristics. Psychologists also believe that everyone can develop or change his / her personality. For example, if an individual wants to correct his / she negative traits such as his / she has to be immature behavior, he / she has to make an effort to do so. He /She has to be persistant and keep working hard to ensure that he / she can achieve his / her goal. Therefore, if a person is determined, he / she can change the traits he / she inherits from his / her parents. The important thing is to change for the better and not for the worse.第七单元-clozeBeing a good boss has never been easy for me. The most difficult part is not about work, but about dealing with relationships at the workplace. I each and every employee in my company is significant to its development, I need to give enough attention and care to everyone ang to be approachable to all. At the start of the business, I encountered difficult situations and I was unsure what the best way was to handle them. For example, when an employee made a mistake, I hesitated about whether to scold him or her. Would I appear to be an important boss to my employees if I did so?Would they continue to make mistakes if I was too lenient? Sometimes, I had to settle disputes among the employees if they did not see eye to eye with each other on some tasks. This too was difficult. Should I blame any party or should I defend anyone? How would I bring them to see their differences and find solutions without hurting each other ? Sometimes I also encountered difficultemployees who seemed to feel miserable whatever I did for them . Life has never been easy , but I have learning the ropes along the way. The essential principle is to treat the employees sincerely, appreciate their contributions to the company and reward them according. My employees are happy to have me as their boss, and are offering me all the assistance they could . They have great enthusiasm for their word and have contributed significantly to the company's development.。

He was crouching on the ground with deformed hands and legs, mumbling something. He had obviously lost the normal ability to move and work. A dirty plate was placed in front the miserable-looking man, in whichthere were some coins and small notes.As my eyes were drifting away from him, his eyes caught mine suddenly. What eyes they were! Filled with misery and expectation, they were looking straight at me. He was unable to speak, but I seemed to hear his pleading voice and read his despairing mind. His look seemed to be telling me about his hard life and his longing for help. For a while, I was at a loss what to do. Should I drop some coins in the plate like some other passers-by or turn away in indifference? I recalled news reports about men pretending to be beggars, who were actually healthy and able to work. Could this be another one of those scams? But the beggar was there, groaning and living. Then something seemed to hit me hard. I drew a five-yuan note from my pocket, dropped it in his dirty plate and walked away quickly in silence.“No good deed is too small.” Maybe we need to bear this saying in mind.▆Sample Essay for Task 2:We are living in a world of distrust.

They are not only dwellers in nature, but also transformers of it.

No one can live outside nature. However, the previous dynamic balance between man and nature has shown signs of breaking down.

Man relies on the environment for water, food and shelter. A harmonious relationship between man and the environment is essential for human survival on the earth.However, man and the environment have never been on such bad terms as they are now. As society develops, man’tsransformation of nature has severely polluted his living environment. Deforestation leads to changes in rainfall patterns, causing devastating floods, droughts and sandstorms. The discharge of chemical pollutants endangers our health and the lives of other beings. And mass production has resulted in the shortage of irreplaceable natural resources suchas coal and oil. If we take no immediate and effective steps to protect our environment, human beings may be the next species to become extinct.We should do our best to protect our environment by planting more trees,taking care of wildlife, reducing industrial wastes, using renewable energy, and imposing heavy fines on environmentally-unfriendly activities, so as to preserve the environment for future generations.(167 words)Unit TwoMan and TechnologyEnhance Your Language AwarenessWords in Action▆Working with Words and Expressions8.In the box below are some of the words you have learned in this unit.

Translate the following passage into English.▆Answers for reference:Many people want to be famous because fame can bring them both honor and respect from the public. In most cases, fame can also help them gain wealth. But, after all, very few people canreally become famous while most people, including most artists, are unlikely to become famous.It is true that some failure for some people at certain times in their lives does motivate them tostrive even harder so as to achieve final success. For example, Thomas Edison, the famous American inventor, had tried hundreds of materials before he finally found the suitable fuse forthe electric bulb. However, unfortunately, for most people failure is the end of their struggle. Therefore, in my opinion, success is one thing and fame is another. As long as you have tried your best, you’r e already successful whether you are famous or not.Theme-Related WritingWrite a composition of no less than 150 words on the topic “F ame —Good or Evil? ”. Your paper should cover the following points:1) the advantages of being famous2) the disadvantages of being famous3) your attitude towards fameSample essay:Fame —Good or Evil?Fame has always been pursued by many people for the advantages it brings about. Fame canassure one of a high social status, high regard, great admiration, etc. Fame can also bring one wealth as a celebrity has more chances to earn big money. Besides, the applause and flowers from fans may boost one’s self-confidence and increase one’s sense of fulfillment.However, fame can ruin one ’s life, too. Itdeprives one of his privacy. As a public figure, he is often chased by fansand journalists, and his private life never escapes the media’s attention or public curiosity. Fame also places one under great pressure. He has to work in line with public expectations and thus becomes the slave of his own success.So fame is a double-edged sword. I don’t seek fame and I don ’t envy those who are famous.I highly appreciate what the American poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow says about fame: “T he talent of success is nothing more than doing well whatever you do without a thought of fame. ”Unit FOUREnhance Your Language AwarenessWords in Action▇Working with Words and Expressions1 In the boxes below are some of the words you have learned in this unit.

The following hints mightserve as a guide:a. The problems existing in the relationships between people in our society.b. The negative results such problems may bring about to our society.c. What can you do to help establish a harmonious society as a student?▆Sample Essay for Task 1:One weekend morning, while walking on a bustling street with a light heart, I was suddenly overtaken by a startling moan. Turning around, I discovered the sound was coming from a black mass in a corner. “What’s that?” My heart pounded heavily.I went up and saw a human being, alive but in a dreadful state. He was crouching on the ground with deformed hands and legs, mumbling something. He had obviously lost the normal ability to move and work. A dirty plate was placed in front the miserable-looking man, in which there were some coins and small notes.As my eyes were drifting away from him, his eyes caught mine suddenly. What eyes they were! Filled with misery and expectation, they were looking straight at me. He was unable to speak, but I seemed to hearhis pleading voice and read his despairing mind.

I drew a five-yuan note from my pocket, droppedit in his dirty plate and walked away quickly in silence.“No good deed is too small.” Maybe we need to bear this saying in mind.▆Sample Essay for Task 2:We are living in a world of distrust. We live behind cold security bars; we do not talk to strangers, let alone go out of our way to help them; we live in fear of fake products. In short, fear and feelings of insecurity fill the environment we live in.All this greatly harms our society. Growing up in such an environment, we tend to feel isolated and care only about ourselves. If things go on like this, ‘trust’, ‘teamwork’, and ‘harmony’ will eventually become terms unheard of.In my opinion, trusting others and being trustworthy are the two basic principles that we should follow if we want to improve human relationships. We may not be in a position to change others, but we can change the way others see us by winning their trust in us. Mutual understanding and love are the pillars that support a harmonious society.Unit TwoOptimism and Positive ThinkingEnhance Your Language AwarenessWords in Action▆Working with Words and Expressions3.In the box below are some of the words you have learned in this unit.

You may draw on some useful ideas and expressions from a variety of sources, such as the two texts in this unit or the Internet.1) Having read the two passages in this unit, you may have come to a better understanding of life and thetimes when pessimistic and optimistic thoughts take turns to affect your behaviour. Write a letter of encouragement (of about 150 words) to one of your high school friends who failed in the college entrance examination. Tell him or her about your new understanding of the need to remain optimistic.2) The writers of the two texts in this unit convey to us the message that we need to look at the positive side ofanything that comes to us and that we need to take an optimistic and positive attitude toward life. Write an essay (of about 150 words) to share your ideas with your classmates. The following hints may be of some help:a. What is meant by “thinking positively”?b. What is the connection between success and optimism?c. How can we keep an optimistic and positive attitude?▆Sample Letter for Task 1:Dear Weihua,I know you are still feeling upset about your results in the college entrance examination. I’ve just read an article about how pessimistic and optimistic thoughts can affect our behaviour and I’m now sending you a copy, hoping that it will help you step out of the shadows.Naturally, failing the college entrance examination can be very depressing, yet if you continue to dwell on the past, you will never be able to pick yourself up and focus on what is more important for now and the future. Life is full of trials and anyone may suffer setbacks. We must take an optimistic attitude towards the things we have to deal with. Optimism and positivethinking are powerful forces. Good things do come true if we picture them often. Please do have confidence in your potential. Just work hard and prepare for another chance.You will make it.Yours,Janet(152 words)▆Sample Essay for Task 2:Thinking positively means allowing your mind to be filled with optimistic feelings, and always hoping for the best though still aware of the difficulties that might be involved.The human mind is powerful; thoughts of optimism and pessimism can be a self-fulfilling prophecy. Though it might seem impossible to some, positive thinking and success actually have a cause-and-result relationship. The reason is that a person with positive thinking will always broadcast goodwill and confidence and that kind of radiating attitude will take a hold on everybody.Gradually, people’s attitude will shift towards more trust and respect. This not only opens up more opportunities for the individual, but it also feeds back emotionally, and the cycle continues.Though the shaping of a positive or negative personality often happens subconsciously, it is possible to control such processes consciously. A person can try visualizing favourable situations, whether it is remembering a contest won as a child or imagining getting that job offer so long sought after. Over time circumstances will change accordingly.

Theme-Related Writing1) Write a narrative essay (of about 150 words) about your pursuit of a dream or someone’s experiences inmaking his / her dream come true.Sample essayLi Hui, my friend in high school, was born into a worker’s family. She began to dream of becoming a cartoon artist from her childhood. To her disappointment, her parents strongly opposed her career choice, because the cost of her education would be too high for the poor family, and they were worried about the job opportunities for a cartoon artist. However, Li Hui would not change her mind. She worked hard to perfect her skills and searched persistently for ways to realise her dream. Just before she finished high school, the chance came: a famous art school was holding a cartoon drawing competition. The first three winners would be given a scholarship to study cartoon drawing at the school. Li Hui told herself not to let the chance slip through her fingers. She readily participated and won the second place. She is now studying there and I feel certain that her dream will come true. (156 words)2) People may have different opinions about the key factors for success. Write a short essay (of about 150words) and share your opinions with your classmates.Sample essay:In my opinion, before a person becomes successful, he or she should fully understand the basic elements of success: competence, determination and optimism.For a person to succeed, he or she has to face great competition and excel in his or her chosen career. The person needs to demonstrate and prove his or her competence in dealing with problems. Without competence, the person can neither stand out among the crowd nor attract the attention of those who hold the keys to the doors of opportunity and advancement.Yet ability alone cannot guarantee success. Often enough, things do not go the way we have planned and failure is unavoidable no matter how intelligent or capable we may be. In such cases one needs to remain firm and optimistic, always believing that hard work will eventually pay off. If the person gives up halfway, success will never knock at the door.
