The teacher spoke too (quick). But I was afraid to ask questions because my (pronounce) was very bad. So I just hid behind my text
2、book and never said (something).Then one day I watched an English movie (call) Toy Story. I fell in love with this exciting and (fun) movie! So then I (begin) to watch other English movies as well. Although I could not understand everything the characters said, their body language and the (expressio
3、n) on their faces helped me to get the meaning. I also realized I could get the meaning by (listen) for just the key words. My (pronounce) also improved by listening to the (interest) conversations in English movies. I discovered that (listen) to something you are (interest) in is the secret to lang
4、uage learning. I also learned useful sentences like “Its a piece of cake” or “It (serve) you right.” I did not understand these sentences at (one). But because I (want) 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
5、 more grammar. Ten I can have a (good) understanding of English movies.Section B How Can You Become a Successful Learner?Everyone (be) born with the ability to learn. But whether or not you can do this well (depend) on your (learn) habits. Research shows that (success)learners have some good habits
6、in common.Creating an interest in what they learnStudies (show) that if you are interested in something, your brain is more active and it is also (easy) for you to pay attention to it for a long time. Good learners often connect what they need to (learn) with something they are (interest) in. For ex
7、ample, 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 (bore).Practicing and learning from mistakesGood learners think about what they are good at and what they need to practice more. Reme
8、mber, “use it or lose it”! Even if you learn something (good), you will forget it unless you use it. (practice) makes perfect. Good learners are also not afraid of (make) mistakes. Alexander Graham Bell did not invent the telephone overnight. He (succeed) by trying many times and (learn) from his mi
9、stakes.Developing their study skillsIt is not enough to just study hard. You have to know how to study. Good learners find out the (good) ways to learn well. For example, they may take notes by (write) down key words or by (draw) mind maps. Good learners also look for (way) to review what they have
10、(learn). They may do this by reading their (note)every day or by explaining the (information) to another student.Asking questions Good learners often (ask) questions during or after class. They even ask each other and try to find out the answers. Knowledge comes from (question). (learn) is a life-lo
11、ng journey because every day (bring) something new. Everything that you learn (become) a part of you and changes you, so learn (wise) and learn well.Unit2 I think that mooncakes are delicious!3a Full Moon, Full FeelingsChinese people have been (celebrate) Mid-Autumn Festival and enjoying mooncakes f
12、or (century). Mooncakes have the shape of a full moon on mid-autumn night. They carry peoples (wish) to the families they love and miss.There are many (tradition) folk stories about this festival. However, most people think that the story of Change is the most (touch). Change was Hou Yis beautiful w
13、ife. After Hou Yi (shoot) down the nine suns, a goddess gave him a magic medicine to thank him. Whoever drank this could live forever, and Hou Yi (plan)to drink it with Change. However, a bad man,Peng Meng, tried to steal the medicine when Hou Yi was not home. Change refused (give) it to him and dra
14、nk it all. She became very light and (fly) up to the moon. Hou Yi was so sad that he (call) out her name to the moon every night. One night, he (find) that the moon was so bright and round that he could see his wife there. He quickly (lay) out her favorite fruits and desserts in the garden. How he w
15、ished that Change could come back!After this, people started the tradition of (admire) the moon and (share) mooncakes with their families.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
16、(lie) the true meaning of Christmas: the (important) of (share) and (give) 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 (write) by Charles Dickens. It is about (a) old man named Scrooge who never laughs or (s
17、mile). He is mean and only thinks about himself, and (do not) treat others nicely. He just cares about whether he can (make) more money. And he hates Christmas. One Christmas Eve, Scrooge (see) the ghost of Jacob Marley, his dead business partner.Marley used to be just like Scrooge, so he (punish) a
18、fter he died. He warns Scrooge (change) his ways if he doesnt want to end up like him. He also tells Scrooge (expect) three spirits to visit him.That night, three ghosts visit Scrooge. First, the Ghost of Christmas Past (take) him back to his childhood and reminds Scrooge of his (happy) days as a ch
19、ild.Then the second spirit, the Ghost of Christmas Present, takes him to see how (other) are spending Christmas this year. Everyone (be) happy, even poor people. The last one, the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come, takes him to the future. He sees that he is (die) but nobody cares. Scrooge is so (scare
20、) 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 (good) person. He happily celebrates Christmas with his (relaty). He also gives gifts to people in need.He now treats everyone with (kind) and warmth, (sprea
21、d) love and joy everywhere he (go). And that is the true spirit of Christmas!UNIT 3 Could you please tell me where the restrooms are?Could you please .?When you visit a foreign country, it is important to know how to ask for help (polite). For example, “Where are the restrooms?” or “Could you please
22、 (tell) me where the restrooms are?” are similar (request) for directions to a place. Both (be) 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 (correct). We also need to learn how to be polite by (be) les
23、s direct or more (direct) when we ask for help. (ask)for information or help is a very common and necessary activity, (especial) when we visit a foreign country. So (know) how to ask for information politely is important. In English, “Where are the restrooms?” and “Could you please tell me where the
24、 restrooms are” are similar requests both are correct English, but the (one) could sound rude. Its important to use correct language, but sometimes this alone is not enough we need to learn how to be (polite) when we make requests.In English, as in Chinese, we change the way we speak when we talk wi
25、th (difference) people. The (expression) you use might depend on whom you are (speak)to or how well you know them. If you (say) to your teacher, “When is the school trip?”, this might sound (polite). But if you say, “Excuse me, Mr. West. Do you know when the school trip is?”, this will sound much mo
26、re polite. However, it is all right to ask direct questions in some (situation), like with your classmates.Usually polite questions (be) 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 e-mail address
27、?” than “Peter, tell me your e-mail address.” Sometimes we even need to spend time (lead) in to a request. For example, with a (strange) on the street, we might first say, “Excuse me, I wonder if you can help me” or “Im sorry to trouble you, but .” before (ask)for help.It might seem more difficult t
28、o speak politely than be direct. However, it is important (learn) how to use proper language. This will also help you (become) better at English, or any other language you wish to speak.Unit 4From Shy Girl to Pop StartFor this months Young World magazine, I_ (interview) 19-year-old Asian pop star Ca
