    Then one day I watched an English movie called Toy Story I fell in love with this
    exciting and funny movie So then I began to watch other English movies as well
    Although I could not understand everything the characters said their body language and the expressions on their faces helped me to get the meaning I also realized I could get the meaning by listening for just the key words My pronunciation also improved by listening to the interesting conversations in English movies I discovered that listening to something you are interested in is the secret to language learning I also learned useful sentences like It’s a piece of cake or It serves you right I did
    not understand these sentences at first But because I wanted to
    understand the story I looked up the words in a dictionary
    Now I really enjoy my English class I want to learn new words and more grammar Then I can have a better understanding of English movies

    2a What good learning habits can you think of Discuss them with your
    partner
    2b Read the passage quickly Which four habits of successful learners are
    mentioned
    USING DICTIONARIES
    How Can You Become
    a Successful Learner
    Everyone is born with the ability to learn
    This can help you find the
    definition that matches the
    context of the word in the text
    But whether or not you can do this well depen ds on your learning habits Research
    shows that successful learners have some good habits in common
    Creating an interest in what they learn
    Studies show that if you are interested in something your brain is more active and
    it is also easier for you to pay attention to it for a long time Good learners often
    connect what they need to learn with something they are interested in For example
    if they need to learn English and they like music or sports they can listen to English
    songs or watch sports programs in English This way they will not get bored
    Practicing and learning from mistakes
    Good learners think about what they are good at and what they need to practice more Remember use it or lose it Even if you learn something well you will
    forget it unless you use it Practice makes perfect Good learners are also not afraid of making mistakes Alexander Graham Bell did not invent the telephone overnight He succeeded by trying many times and learning from his mistakes
    Developing their study skills
    It is not enough to just study hard You have to know how to study Good learners find out the best ways to learn well For example they may take notes by writing down key words or by drawing mind maps Good learners also look for ways to review what they have learned They may do this by reading their notes every day or by explaining the information to another student
    Asking questions
    ood learners often ask questions during or after class hey even ask each other and try to find out the answers Knowledge comes from questioning
    Learning is a lifelong journey because every day brings
    something new Everything that you learn becomes a
    part of you and changes you so learn wisely and learn
    well

    thing you are interested in
    3 What do the sayings use it or lose it and practice makes perfect mean
    Do you agree with them
    4 Do good learners learn from mistakes or are they afraid of making
    mistakes
    5 What study skills does the writer talk about Do you have those study
    skills
    6 Do you agree that learning is a lifelong journey Why or why not

    2e Can you think of other ways to become a successful learner Discuss
    with your group and share your ideas with the class

    B I agree I believe that

    1 What are the common things that people think of for Christmas

    The Spirit of Christmas
    Many would agree that when we think of
    Christmas we probably think of gifts
    Christmas trees and Santa Claus But behind
    all these things lies the true meaning of
    Christmas the importance of sharing and
    
    INFERRING
    This means you have to
    read between the lines to
    get the meanings that are
    not clearly stated in a text
    giving love and joy to people around us The story in A Christmas Carol is perhaps the best example of this
    A Christmas Carol is a famous novel written by Charles Dickens It is about an old
    man named Scrooge who never laughs or smiles He is mean and only thinks about
    himself and doesn’t treat others nicely He just cares about whether he can make
    more money And he hates Christmas One Christmas Eve Scrooge sees the ghost
    of Jacob Marley his dead business partner Marley used to be just like Scrooge so
    he was punished after he died He warns Scrooge to change his ways if he doesn’t
    want to end up like him He also tells Scrooge to expect three spirits to visit him
    That night three ghosts visit Scrooge First the Ghost of Christmas Past takes
    him back to his childhood and reminds Scrooge of his happier days as a child
    Then the second spirit the Ghost of Christmas Present takes him to see how
    others are spending Christmas this year Everyone is
    happy even poor people The last one the Ghost of
    Christmas Yet to Come takes him to the future He
    sees that he is dead but nobody cares Scrooge is so
    scared that he wakes up in his bed and finds out it is
    already the next morning on Christmas Day
    He decides to change his life and promises to be a
    better person He happily celebrates Christmas with his relatives He also gives gifts to people in need
    He now treats everyone with kindness and warmth spreading love and joy everywhere he goes And that is the true spirit of Christmas

    2a Where do you need to make polite requests Think of some possible
    situations Discuss them with your partner
    2b Read the article and match each paragraph with its main idea
    Paragraph 1 Use more words to help you sound more polite
    Paragraph 2 It is important to know how to make requests politely
    Paragraph 3 Good English speakers need to know how to speak politely
    Paragraph 4 The choice of language depends on the situation and the
    relationship between the speakers
    USING SUITABLE LANGUAGE
    Could You Please
    When you visit a foreign country it is
    important to know how to ask for help
    politely For example Where are the
    restrooms or Could you please tell me
    In different situations you
    need to choose and use suitable language based on cultural knowledge
    where the restrooms are are similar requests for directions to a place Both are
    correct English but the first one sounds less polite That is because it is a very
    direct question It is not enough to just ask a question correctly We also need
    to learn how to be polite by being less direct — or more indirect — when we
    ask for help
    In English as in Chinese we change the way we speak when we talk with different
    people The expressions you use might depend on whom you are speaking to or
    how well you know them If you say to your teacher When is the school trip
    this might sound impolite But if you say Excuse me Mr West Do you know
    when the school trip is this will sound much more polite However it is all right
    to ask direct questions in some situations like with your classmates
    Usually polite questions are longer and include more language such as Could you please or Can I ask It sounds more polite to say Peter could you please tell me your email address than Peter tell me your email address Sometimes we even need to spend time leading in to a request For example with a stranger on the street we might first say Excuse me I wonder if you can help me or I’m sorry to trouble you but before asking for help
    It might seem more difficult to speak politely than be direct However it is important to learn how to use proper language This will also help you become better at English or any other language you wish to speak

    Pardon me could you
    please tell me where to Where’s the post office

    how Candy’s life has changed Candy’s advice to young people Candy’s background

    From Shy Girl to Pop Star
    1 For this month’s Young World magazine I interviewed 19yearold Asian pop
    star Candy Wang Candy told me that she used to be really shy and took up singing
    to deal with her shyness As she got better she dared to sing in front of her class
    and then for the whole school Now she’s not shy anymore and loves singing in
    front of crowds
    2 I asked Candy how life was different after she became famous She explained
    that there are many good things like being able to travel and meet new people
    all the time I didn’t use to be popular in school but now I get tons of attention
    everywhere I go However too much attention can also be a bad thing I
    always have to worry about how I appear to others and I have to be very careful
    about what I say or do And I don’t have much private time anymore Hanging
    out with friends is almost impossible for me now because
    there are always guards around me
    3 What does Candy have to say to all those young people
    who want to become famous Well she begins slowly
    you have to be prepared to give up your normal life You
    can never imagine how difficult the road to success is
    Many times I thought about giving up but I fought on
    You really require a lot of talent and hard work to succeed
    Only a very small number of people make it to the top

    Did you know that tea the most popular drink in the world (after water) was invented by accident Many people believe that tea was first drunk nearly 5000 years ago It is said that a Chinese ruler called Shen Nong first discovered tea as a drink One day Shen Nong was boiling drinking water over an open fire Some leaves from a tea plant fell into the water and remained there for some time It produced a nice smell so he tasted the brown water anyway It was quite delicious In this way one of the world’s favorite drinks was invented
    More than 4000 years later Lu Yu the saint of tea
    mentioned Shen Nong in his book Cha Jing The book
    describes how tea plants were grown and used to make
    tea It also discusses where the finest tea leaves were
    produced and what kinds of water were used
    It is believed that tea was brought to Korea and Japan
    during the 6th and 7th centuries In England tea didn’t
    appear until around 1660 but less than 100 years later
    it had become the national drink The tea trade from
    China to Western countries took place in the 19th century This helped to spread the popularity of tea and the tea plant to more places around the world Even though many people now know about tea culture the Chinese are without doubt the ones who best understand the nature of tea

    Mom Knows Best
    When I was a tiny baby crying all night my mom sang to me and stayed by my side When I was tired and hungry she gave me food and warm arms to sleep in
    When I was two running through the field she made sure I was safe and kept me from danger
    When I fell and hurt myself she gave me a hug and lifted me up
    When I was seven coughing badly she said no icecream for me
    But I talked back loudly I should be allowed to eat some Give it to me now
    When I was nine watching scary movies she said it’d give me awful dreams
    But I shouted back angrily I should be allowed to watch it I’m not a baby
    When I was a teen going out with friends she said Please be
    back by ten
    But I talked back again — I should not be told what to do I’m seventeen now
    Now I’m an adult thinking back to those times
    I coughed for days after eating that icecream

    and I have supported every one of his races We
    have nothing against running But we think our
    son needs to think about other possible jobs He’s getting older now so he needs to think about what will happen if he doesn’t end up a professional runner
    Liu Yu doesn’t really agree Well I think I should be allowed to decide for myself he says My parents have always taught me how important it is to work hard at school and enter university I understand this but I’m serious about running It’s the only thing I’ve ever wanted to do
    His parents believe that Liu Yu should study hard in the evenings so they don’t
    allow him to practice running at night Maybe he thinks it’s too strict or unfair
    says Mrs Liu But we think we’re doing the right thing He needs to spend more
    time on his homework because becoming a professional sports star is a difficult
    dream
    But Liu Yu still disagrees I know my parents care about me They always talk
    about what will happen if I don’t succeed But I will I’m a quick runner I think I should be allowed to make this choice myself Only then will I have a chance to achieve my dream

    nervous When he was interviewed by the town newspaper he said Every night we hear strange noises outside our window My wife thinks that it could be an
    animal but my friends and I think it must be teenagers having fun My parents
    called the policemen but they couldn’t find anything strange They think it might be the wind I don’t think so
    Victor’s nextdoor neighbor Helen is worried too At first I thought that it might
    be a dog but I couldn’t see a dog or anything else either So I guess it can’t be a
    dog But then what could it be One woman in the area saw something running
    away but it was dark so she is not sure I think it was too
    big to be a dog she said Maybe it was a bear or a wolf
    Everyone in our town is feeling uneasy and everyone has
    his or her own ideas There must be something visiting
    the homes in our neighborhood but what is it We have
    no idea Most people hope that this animal or person will
    simply go away but I do not think that is going to happen

    Stonehenge — Can Anyone

    Stonehenge a rock circle is not only one
    Identifying conjunctions or phrases
    that link ideas together will help
    you understand what you read
    of Britain’s most famous historical places but also one of its greatest mysteries Every year it receives more than 750000 visitors Especially in June people go to this place as they want to see the sun rising on the longest day of the year
    For many years historians believed Stonehenge was a temple where ancient leaders tried to communicate with the gods However historian Paul Stoker thinks this can’t be true because Stonehenge was built so many centuries ago The leaders arrived in England much later he points out
    Another popular idea is that Stonehenge might be a kind of calendar The large
    stones were put together in a certain way On midsummer’s morning the sun
    shines directly into the center of the stones Other people believe the stones have
    a medical purpose They think the stones can prevent illness while keeping people healthy As you walk there you can feel the energy from your feet climb up your
    body said one visitor No one is sure what Stonehenge was used for but most
    agree that the position of the stones must be for a special purpose Some think it
    might be a burial place or a place to honor ancestors Others think it was built to
    celebrate a victory over an enemy
    Stonehenge was built slowly over a long period of time Most historians believe it must be almost 5000 years old One of the greatest mysteries is how it was built because the stones are so big and heavy In
    2001 a group of English volunteers tried to
    build another Stonehenge but they couldn’t
    We don’t really know who built Stonehenge
    says Paul Stoker And perhaps we might never
    know but we do know they must have been
    hardworking — and great planners

    Penguins which provide plenty of information about a certain subject can be interesting but when I’m tired I don’t want to think too much I don’t mind action movies like SpiderMan when I’m too tired to think I can just shut off my brain sit back and enjoy watching an exciting superhero who always saves the world just in time

    Last night one of my Chinese friends

    opinions or other detailed
    information in each paragraph
    music The piece which was played on the erhu especially moved me The music
    was strangely beautiful but under the beauty I sensed a strong sadness and pain
    The piece had a simple name Moon Reflected on Second Spring but was one of
    the most moving pieces of music that I’ve ever heard The erhu sounded like it was
    crying and I almost cried along with it as I listened Later I looked up the history of
    Moon Reflected on Second Spring and I began to understand the sadness in the
    music
    The music was written by Abing a folk musician who was born in the city of Wuxi in 1893 Just one year later his mother died Abing’s father taught him to play
    many musical instruments such as the drums dizi and erhu and by age 17 Abing was known for his musical ability However after his father died Abing’s life grew worse He was very poor caught a serious illness and became blind For several years he had no home He lived on the streets and played music to make money Even after Abing got married and had a home again he continued to sing and play in the city streets He performed in this way for many years
    Abing’s amazing musical skills made him very popular during
    his lifetime By the end of his life he could play over 600 pieces
    of music many of which he wrote himself It is a pity that only
    six pieces of music in total were recorded for the future world
    to hear but his popularity continues to this day Today Abing’s
    Moon Reflected on Second Spring is a piece which all the
    great erhu masters play and praise It has become one of China’s national treasures Its sad beauty not only paints a picture of Abing’s own life but also makes people recall their deepest wounds from their own sad or painful experiences

    Dear Laura ideas can help you move language from
    Thanks for your message Yes I’m your shortterm to longterm memory
    having a great time on my student
    exchange program in France I was a bit nervous before I arrived here but there was
    no reason to be My host family is really nice They go out of their way to make me
    feel at home The grandmother knows that I miss Chinese food a lot So she actually
    learned how to make Chinese food She also has a teenage granddaughter about my
    age She’s really kind and she always talks to me in French to help me practice You
    wouldn’t believe how quickly my French has improved because of that I’m very
    comfortable speaking French now Although I still make lots of mistakes it doesn’t worry me like it used to
    My biggest challenge is learning how to behave at the dinner table As you can
    imagine things are very different from the way they are at home For example
    you’re not supposed to put your bread on your plate You’re supposed to put
    it on the table I thought that was pretty strange at first but now I’m used to
    it Another example is that you’re not supposed to eat anything with your hands
    except bread not even fruit You have to cut it up and eat it with a fork Another
    thing is it’s impolite to say that you’re full If you don’t want any more food you
    should just say That was delicious Also you’re not supposed to put your elbows on the table I have to say that I find it difficult to remember everything but I’m gradually getting used to it I don’t find French
    customs so strange anymore
    I’ll write again soon and tell you more about my life in France Hope you’re having a good school year

    Carefully reading the first sentence
    in each paragraph can activate your
    own knowledge of the topic and

    is about
    announced that there would be no more spag hetti because the spaghetti farmers in
    Italy had stopped growing spaghetti Many people ran to their local supermarkets to
    buy as much spaghetti as they could By the time people realized that the story was a hoax all of the spaghetti across the country had been sold out Another famous trick in England was when a TV show reported the discovery of special water They said this water would help people lose weight and that one customer had already lost a lot of weight in just four months By the end of the day more than 10000 people had phoned the TV station to find out how to get this water
    Many April Fool’s jokes may end up being not very funny A famous TV star once invited his girlfriend onto his show on April Fool’s Day He asked her to marry him The lady was so happy because she really wanted to get married However when she said yes he replied April Fool That little joke didn’t have a very happy ending The TV star lost both his girlfriend and his show
    One of the world’s most famous tricks however happened in October rather than April In that month in 1938 actor Orson Welles announced on his radio program that aliens from Mars had landed on the earth He
    described where they had landed and told how
    they were moving across the United States Welles made it sound so real that hundreds of people
    believed the story and fear spread across the
    whole country By the time police officers
    announced that the story was a hoax thousands of people had left their homes

    3a Discuss the questions with a 1 Have you ever seen a shark
    partner 2 What do you know about sharks

    3b Read the passage Complete the fact sheet below

    Many have heard of shark’s fin soup This
    famous and expensive dish is especially
    popular in southern China But do you realize
    that you’re killing a whole shark each time
    you enjoy a bowl of shark’s fin soup
    When people catch sharks they cut off their
    fins and throw the shark back into the ocean
    Without a fin a shark can no longer swim
    and slowly dies This method is not only crue l but also harmful to the
    environment Sharks are at the top of the food chain in the ocean’s ecosystem If
    their numbers drop too low it will bring danger to all ocean life Many believe
    that sharks can never be endangered because they are the strongest in their food
    chain But in fact around 70 million sharks are caught and traded in this industry every year The numbers of some kinds of sharks have fallen by over 90 percent in the last 20 to 30 years
    Environmental protection groups around the world such as WildAid and the
    WWF are teaching the public about finning They have even asked governments
    to develop laws to stop the sale of shark’s fins So far no scientific studies have
    shown that shark’s fins are good for health so why eat them Help save the sharks
    Where shark’s fin soup is popular
    Number of sharks caught and traded every year
    How much the numbers of some kinds of sharks have fallen in the last 20 to 30 years
    Two environmental groups which are against finning

    3c Read the passage and fill in the blanks with the words in the box
    1 Many people do not realize they are killing a whole shark

    so
    although

    but
    when
    2 Sharks are at the top of the food chain if their numbers
    drop the ocean’s ecosystem will be in danger
    3 Many think that sharks are too strong to be endangered they
    re wrong
    4 there are no scientific studies to support this a lot of
    people believe that shark’s fins are good for health
    5 Sharks may disappear one day we do not do something to
    stop the sale of shark’s fins
