Unit 1 A new start
Passage 1
My first day at senior high
After I had pictured it over and over again in my
mind, the big day finally arrived: my first day at
senior high! I woke up early and rushed out of
the door in my eagerness to get to know my new
school.
The campus was still quiet when I
arrived, so I decided to explore a bit. I was
looking at the
photos on the noticeboard when
I heard a voice behind me. “New here?” Turning
around, I saw an
older man. I replied. “I’m
wondering what life is going to be like here.
worry,” he
gave me a smile.
How
true these words were! When my English teacher
stepped into the classroom, I was
surprised to
see the same older man I had met earlier.
“Good morning, everyone. Before we start, please
come to the front one by one and introduce
yourself to the class. I'll go first…”
“What?!
course. But what else? What could I say
to make a good first impression? Something about
my insect
collection, perhaps. “I was
organising my words in my head when the girl next
to me gave me a nudge.
“It' s your turn!”
With butterflies in my stomach, I breathed deeply.
“Hi, I’m Meng Hao.” Everyone started laughing.
I looked at them in panic. Nice to know we
share the same name,” said my new teacher. I had
been
too nervous to pay attention when he
introduced himself! Although I was embarrassed,
his words
made me a lot more relaxed!
When we had all introduced ourselves, Mr Meng
said, “ Well done, everyone! I know this isn't
easy for many of you. But this is just the
kind of thing you are going to face at senior
high. Challenges
like this might sometimes put
you under pressure. But it all depends on what you
do. Keep calm and
be prepared. That way,
you'll make the most of your time at senior high.”

High
school hints
Interviewer: Hello and welcome to
School Talk! Today I'm joined by Lisa Osborne.
Lisa graduated from
our school last June and
is about to go to college. Lisa, thank you for
coming to share your
suggestions for high
school with us.
Lisa: Hi, everybody. I'm very
glad to be back. I feel as if high school was only
yesterday.
Interviewer: So what helped when
you first started high school?
Lisa:
Orientation Day was really helpful. It's a
fantastic opportunity for new students to get to
know
the school and the other students. I even
made some new friends! Just keep an open mind and
take part in as much as possible.
Interviewer: That's sound advice for sure. But
how did you deal with new challenges, like
starting a
new course?
Lisa: I had a
chemistry test right at the end of the first week.
I was frightened at the sight of the test
paper. But then I figured I'd better just go
all out and see what happens. If you fail, no
problem
--next time you can fail better!
Interviewer: So, hold your head up, then. But
life is not always easy. You must have had some
moments when you were disappointed. If so, how
did you deal with them?
Lisa: As a member of
the school volleyball team, I wasn’t selected for
the end-of-year competition. At
first I was
really sad, but later I realised that I joined the
team for the love of the sport. It wasn't
just
about winning. So I kept working hard to support
my teammates during our training. There's
always a way to be part of something you love,
isn't there?
Interviewer: Yes, I totally
agree. Is there anything else in particular that
you'd like to share with us?
Lisa: Looking
back at my high school life, the most important
advice I'd give are these wonderful words
from
the writer Maya Angelou. She said, “Try to be a
rainbow in someone's cloud.” So, give your
friends a hand when they need it. And this
will make you feel good, too.
Interviewer:
Awesome! Well, thanks again for coming to speak to
us, Lisa. And good luck with college.
Lisa:
Thank you.

Unit 2 Exploring English
Passage 1
Neither Pine nor Apple in Pineapple
Have you ever asked yourself why people often have
trouble learning English? I hadn't, until one
day my five-year-old son asked me whether
there was ham in a hamburger. There isn't. This
made me
realise that there's no egg in
eggplant either. Neither is there pine nor apple
in pineapple. This got
me thinking how English
can be a crazy language to learn.
For
example, in our free time we can sculpt a
sculpture and paint a painting, but we take a
photo.
And when we are travelling we say that
we are in the car or the taxi, but on the train or
bus! While
we're doing all this travelling, we
can get seasick at sea, airsick in the air and
carsick in a car, but we
don't get homesick
when we get back home. And speaking of home, why
aren't homework and
housework the same thing?
If “hard
actions are the opposite of
harmful actions, why are shameless and shameful
behaviours the same?
When we look out of
the window and see rain or snow, we can say
But when we see sunshine, we can't say “it's
sunshining”.
Even the smallest of words
can be confusing. When you see the capitalized
report, do you read it as the
You
also have to wonder at the unique madness of a
language in which a house can burn up as
it
burns down, in which you fill in a form by filling
it out, and in which an alarm is only heard once
it
goes!
English was invented by
people, not computers, and it reflects the
creativity of the human race.
That is why
when the stars are out, they are visible, but when
the lights are out, they are invisible.
And
that is why when I wind up my watch, it starts,
but when I wind up this passage, it ends.

Passage 2
(Mis)adventures in English
Last week, our forum asked if you had any funny or
strange stories about using English. We didn't
expect to get so many posts! Here are some of
our favourites, to remind us that some of the
English
we learn in the classroom is rather
different from the English in the outside world!
Alba
People say that the British
always play safe with what they eat. Not true! I
went to a summer
school in Manchester and my
English teacher was called Maggie. One day, a
different teacher took
our class. He told us
that Maggie couldn't teach that day because she
had a frog in her throat. Poor
Maggie-but why
did she try to eat such a big frog?
Yancy
When I first visited New York, I went to a
shopping centre to buy some winter boots. At the
information desk I asked a lady where the shoe
section was. She said that it was on the first
floor. So
I went up to the first floor, but
couldn't find any shoes. When I was about to
leave, I saw that shoes
were actually sold on
the ground floor, not the first floor. How
confusing!
Julien
I've got an English
pen friend, who I finally got to meet in London
this summer. He had told me
that his
grandfather was
confused. Why did my friend
use a negative word about such a nice man?
Zheng Xu
The British must have really
high standards. I was part of a student exchange
between a university
in England and my
university in China. I spent days preparing and
writing my first English paper. I knew
I had
done a good job and was looking forward to getting
a good grade. When I got the paper back, I
found my teacher had written the comment

Father: Not again! Oh look, here comes my

Son: (nervously
approaching the table) Erm... Dad, can we talk?
Father: Sure! You know you can always turn
to your dad for a chat.
Son: OK. Here it is.
I've decided not to go to university. I want to
focus my band and have a career
in music when
I leave school.
Father: (raising his voice in
surprise) You can't be serious! What about your
future career as a
lawyer?!
Son: I knew
you'd say that. You just assume I want to be a
lawyer, but that's only because you are
a
lawyer.
Father: What's wrong with being a
lawyer? People respect lawyers and you can have a
good
income.
Son: Yes, but I'm not
interested in law, I want to work in a studio, not
a court.
Grandfather: (looking at Father) Calm
down, OK?
Father: (ignoring Grandfather's
words) Stop daydreaming! Playing in a band is not
a job.
Son: Of course it is! The music
industry is developing fast now. Making music is a
job.
Grandfather: (stepping between Father
and Son and raising his voice) Hey! I told you to
calm
down, both of you!
Father: But I
told him to study something useful at university!
Grandfather: (laughing) Easy, son! I
remember when you were his age you said that you
wanted
to be a professional soccer player.
Father: And you wanted to be an engineer.
Grandfather: I just wanted you to be happy,
and an engineer-a happy engineer.
Father: But
in the end, you just advised me to think
carefully.

that suited your talents. I'm so proud of you.
Your
son is proud of you, too.
Son: Of
course I am, but I have different talents.
Grandfather: (turning to Son) Why don’t you
also take my advice and think carefully before
jumping in with both feet?
Son: Well, I
could try…
Grandfather: If you go to
university and play music at the same time, you
will have two options
for you future. And I’m
sure playing in a band will help you make lots of
new friends at university.
Father: Yes, lots
of new lawyer friends!

Passage 2
Just a Brother
It was the final part of the 2016 Triathlon World
Series in Mexico. With just 700 metres to go,
Alistair Brownlee was in third place and his
younger brother, Jonny, was in the lead. Alistair
pushed
himself towards the finish line in the
burning heat, but as he came round the corner, he
saw his
brother about to fall onto the track.
Alistair had to choose--brotherly love, or a
chance to win the race?
For Alistair, the
choice was clear. His brother was in trouble. He
had to help. Alistair ran towards
Jonny,
caught him and started pulling him towards the
finish line. Alistair then pushed his brother
over the line. The move put Jonny in second
place and Alistair himself in third. It was an
unexpected
end to the race, but Alistair did
not want to discuss it with the media. He just
wanted to see his
younger brother who had been
rushed to the medical area.
The Brownlee
brothers have been doing triathlons since they
were children.
your older brother is doing it,
you think it's a cool thing to do,” says Jonny.
Alistair says that they
encourage each other
as much as they can when they train. Despite
arguments over
now and then, Alistair agrees
that having a brother is an advantage. “Throughout
my entire life, I've
had my brother trying to
beat me at everything I do. It has been an
enormously positive force.”
Watched by
millions, the ending to the race has divided
opinions: should the brothers have been
disqualified or highly praised for their
actions? But for Alistair, his decision was easy
to explain:
wouldn't have been happy if I'd
left Jonny behind.” At that moment, he was no
longer an athlete
aiming for a medal—he was
just a brother.

Unit 4 Friends forever
Passage 1
Click
for a Friend?
How would you feel if moving to
a new town meant losing track of your friends?
What if the only
way of getting news from
faraway friends was writing letters? This was how
things worked not so very
long ago. Thanks to
advances in technology, how we make friends and
communicate with them has
changed
significantly.
Nowadays, we can move
around the world and still stay in touch with the
people that we want
to remain friends with.
Social media tools let us see what our friends are
up to and maintain
friendships without missing
a beat.
The digital age also enables us
to find people who share our interests, such as
collecting model
cars or playing an unusual
instrument. Whatever our hobbies, the Internet can
connect us with others
who also enjoy doing
them, even if they live on the other side of the
world.
But when you
It depends.
If people always exchange true personal
information online, then yes, these friendships
can be
real and meaningful. But we need to
keep in mind that what we see on social media is
often not the
whole truth about a person.
On social media sites, people tend to post only
good things that make them appear happy and
friendly. But smiling photos can hide real
problems. Remember the saying: on the Internet,
nobody
knows you're a dog. A young person
could be old; a woman could be a man; we could
even be sharing
our information with
criminals.
But this doesn't mean we should
throw the baby out with the bathwater. Although
technology
has changed the way we are
connected, the meaning of friendship and our
longing for friends remain
the same. As
Aristotle said, no one would choose to live
without friends, even if he had all other
goods.

Passage 2
After Twenty Years
(excerpts)
The short story
left work to go
home, and this part of the city is now quiet. A
police officer who is checking the area
sees a
man outside a shop. He goes up to the man and
finds the man has a scar on his face. They have
a chat. The man starts to tell his story.
“Twenty years ago to-night,” said the man,
my best chum, and the finest chap in the
world. He and I were raised here in New York, just
like two
brothers, together. I was eighteen
and Jimmy was twenty. The next morning I was to
start for the West
to make my fortune. You
couldn't have dragged Jimmy out of New York; he
thought it was the only
place on earth. Well,
we agreed that night that we would meet here again
exactly twenty years from
that date and time,
no matter what our conditions might be or from
what distance we might have to
come. We
figured that in twenty years each of us ought to
have our destiny worked out and our
fortunes
made, whatever they were going to be.”
It
sounds pretty interesting,
seems to me.
Haven't you heard from your friend since you
left?”
Well, yes, for a time we
corresponded, said the other.
each other. You
see, the West is a pretty big proposition, and I
kept hustling around over it pretty
lively.
But I know Jimmy will meet me here if he's alive,
for he always was the truest, stanchest old
chap in the world. He'll never forget. I came
a thousand miles to stand in this door to-night,
and it's
worth it if my old partner turns up.”

Unit 5 Into the
wild
Passage 1
The Monarch’ s Journey
Many animals move from one place to another at
certain times of the year. This movement is
called migration. They migrate to find food,
find a partner or search of warmer weather. Of all
the
mass migrations, that of the North
American monarch butterflies is one of the most
wonderful.
Every autumn, millions of
these beautiful insects with delicate black and
orange wings begin a
long and difficult
journey. Somehow they manage to travel around 4,
000 kilometers south and find
their way to
places where they will spend the winter. However,
until recently no one knew how they
do this.
A team of scientists led by Professor Eli
Schlizerman at the University of Washington has
now
found the answer. They have discovered
that the monarch is able to tell the time of day.
It then uses
its eyes to measure the position
of the sun. These two pieces of information —the
time of day and
the point where the sun is in
the sky—allow the butterfly to determine which way
it needs to go and
change its direction when
necessary. Eventually, it manages to reach
California or Mexico.
The solution to the
mystery of the monarch's amazing ability comes at
a time when it is in serious
trouble. Its
population has crashed by as much as ninety per
cent in the last few years. Unfortunately,
human activity is the main reason why the
monarch numbers are falling. In many of the places
where
monarchs can be found, people are
destroying the natural environment by cutting down
trees and
using chemicals that kill the plants
that monarch caterpillars eat.
A better
understanding of the monarch's behaviour has
however led to a greater awareness and
appreciation of this creature. Volunteers have
been working together to record their migration
and
make sure that there are enough plants for
them to feed on. If this work is successful, there
may come
a time when monarch numbers increase
once again. The more we know about the delicate
creatures,
the greater the chance they will
survive. By doing more research, the monarch
butterfly can keep its
place in the human
imagination for a long time to come.

Passage 2
An Encounter with Nature
As a nature
photographer, I have to brave the elements. But
despite the wind and the rain, I still
enjoy
working outside in the wild. One of the best
things about this job is that you can observe
animals in their natural environment.
My favorite place to take photos is Yellowstone
National Park. As the world's first national park,
Yellowstone is famous for the variety of its
wildlife, but it is probably best known for its
bears. These
huge, strong animals can live for
up to thirty years. Despite an average weight of
over 180 kilograms,
they can run at a speed of
72 kilometres per hour and are also excellent
swimmers.
Last spring in Yellowstone, I
followed a path that took me through a dark
forest. When I finally
stepped out of the
trees, the view was breathtaking. An eagle flew
over the snowcapped mountains,
which were
reflected in the still lake below. While I was
concentrating on photographing this amazing
scene, I suddenly had a feeling that I was
being watched. Slowly, and with the camera still
held to my
eye, I turned… and froze. Only
metres away from me was a bear. With water falling
off its thick, brown
hair, the bear stared
back at me. Time stood still as the bear and I
both waited to see who would
move first. My
legs started shaking. Somehow, I forced my finger
to press the button. A second later,
the bear
turned and ran back into the forest. When I
recovered from the shock, I looked at my camera.
My most frightening but magical experience was
now captured forever in a single image.
From time to time I look at the photo as a
reminder to show respect to all animals. It is
after all
we who are the visitors to their
world.

Unit 6 At
one with nature
Passage 1
Longji Rice
Terraces
Imagine mountains wrapped in
silver water, shining in the spring sun. Summer
sees the
mountains turn bright green with
growing rice. During autumn, these same mountains
are flash gold,
and in winter they are covered
in sheets of white frost. These are the colours of
the Longji Rice
Terraces.
These terraces
were built by the local Zhuang and Yao people, to
whom Guangxi is home. Starting
in the Yuan
Dynasty, work on the terraces took hundreds of
years, until its completion in the early
Qing
Dynasty. Reaching as far as the eye can see, these
terraces cover tall mountains, often from the
bottom to the very top.
So why did these
people go to so much trouble to turn entire
mountains into terraces? Firstly,
there are
few large, flat areas of land in the region.
Building the terraces therefore meant that they
could increase the areas in which they could
grow rice. Secondly, although the region has
plenty of
rain, the mountains are steep and
the earth is shallow. The flat terraces catch the
rainwater and
prevent the soil from being
washed away.
But perhaps what is most
significant is the way in which people have worked
in harmony with
nature to make these terraces
and grow rice. The terraces are cleverly designed,
with hundreds of
waterways that connect with
each other. During the rainy season, it is along
these waterways that
rainwater moves down the
mountains and into the terraces. The sun heats the
water and turins it
into gas. This forms
clouds from which rain falls down onto the
mountain terraces once again. These
terraces
also provide a perfect environment for birds and
fish, some of which feed on insects that can
harm the rice crops.
Although modern
technology could help produce more crops, the rice
growers are people for
whom traditions hold
much value. This knowledge is passed down through
families, which means
that new generations
continue to use ancient methods of agriculture to
maintain the terraces. Today,
the Longji rice
Terraces attract thousands of visitors who come to
admire this great wonder created
by people and
nature working together.

Passage 2
A Love of Gardening
“If you look the right
way, you can see that the whole world is a
garden.” These words come from
the book The
Secret Garden, first published in 1911. At that
time, only the very rich in Britain had
gardens. Very soon after this, homes started
to be built with gardens. Since then, the British
love of
gardening began! Today, millions of
Brits like to say that they have “green
fingers
the population spending most of their
free time gardening.
For many people in
the UK, their garden is their own private world.
Each spring, children plant
sunflowers and
wait to see which one is the tallest. Expert
gardeners know just the right corner for
roses, and others spend hours trying to grow
perfect vegetables to enter into competitions. And
while
many Brits like nothing better than
spending their Sunday cutting the grass, some are
happy just to
sit and enjoy the beauty of
their small world.
But in cities, limited
space has led to people looking for new solutions.
Those without outside
space can rent small
pieces of land on which to grow things. Today,
there are over 4, 000 people in
London waiting
for such pieces of land. One recent idea has been
to turn rooftops and walls into
private
gardens. These gardens have helped make the cities
greener and improve air quality.
As well
as being good for the environment, gardening is
also good for the soul. What other free-
time
activity allows you to be at one with nature and
create more beautiful living things? And if you’re
in any doubt about this, take a moment to
reflect on this line from The Secret Garden:
tend a rose... A thistle cannot grow.”
