13、es. Dont be shy! Good luck in your exams. Take a deep breath, smile and youll be fine!2. TERM REPORTSEnd of Term ReportStudents NameZhao XingSubjectEnglishTeacherMr. DickensZhao Xing has always been a hard-working pupil. However, he finds that studying English is very difficult. At the beginning of
14、the term, he was struggling to keep up with his classmates. So I was very pleased that at the end of this term, Zhao Xing came top of his class. All areas have improved greatly. In his writing, his spelling and punctuation are much better. He is able to correct his own work and help correct other pu
15、pils. In speaking, he is much more confident. He can have English conversations with his friends and with me. He takes part in group work and he is not afraid to speak anymore. He is able to read and understand quite difficult texts much more easily. When I ask him questions in English, he smiles an
16、d can answer them quickly. Zhao Xing should feel very positive about the progress he has made this term. If he continues like this, he will do very well indeed.End of Term ReportStudents NameSam SmithSubjectEnglishTeacherMrs. Black Sam is a popular member of the class. He is also very clever. Howeve
17、r, his results this term in English have been very disappointing. In his final writing exam, he made a lot of mistakes and came last in the class. He should try and check his writing more and concentrate on his spelling. When he is speaking, he should remember to speak more slowly and clearly. Somet
18、imes, it is very difficult to understand what he is saying. He doesnt seem to listen carefully either. His knowledge of basic English grammar is poor. He needs to buy a good grammar book and study it every day. I realize that Sam is the youngest member of his class. He is an intelligent pupil who co
19、uld do well, if he tries harder.3. GHATTING ONLINEZhao Xing:Hi Sam. Hows it going? Its great to have an online pen friend. Im feeling great today. We got our end of term reports and my parents were so pleased. Ive never seen them smile so much. How about you?Sam:Hi Zhao Xing. Yes, its good to hear f
20、rom you. My report came today and Ive never seen my parents look so unhappy. I cant believe it.Zhao Xing:Im sorry to hear that. Do you remember the advice June gave me about setting up an English club? Well, I did! A group of us meet after school and talk about things that interest us. Often we just
21、 talk about films we have seen. Theres only one rule when we meet you must speak English! I enjoy meeting different people. Its really helped me to feel confident when I speak English in class. Why dont you try and do the same?Sam:Thats a really good idea, thanks. There are lots of people from diffe
22、rent countries in my school. The trouble is, they stay in little groups and dont mix very well.Zhao Xing:It must be difficult for you. There must be things you can do outside school. I really like football, so Ive joined a football club. Its great because we do something we really enjoy and speak En
23、glish at the same time! And we get fit as well! How about trying the same?Sam:I cant play football but I can play the drums! Ive got a friend who can play the guitar. Another can play the piano. Maybe we could make a music group instead!Zhao Xing:Yes, great idea. Do it and let me know how you get on
24、. But make a rule for your music group. When you are together, you may only sing and speak in English!4. ENGLISH JUST GOT HARDER!Many teachers who teach English language in the USA and England HATE mobile phones! They hate text messages. English language and grammar are hard to learn. English spelli
25、ng is even harder- and people in the USA and England spell a lot of words differently. English spelling has rules. But it also has lots of words that break the rules. You have to learn each of these words. Now text messaging has made spelling even harder.Text messages have to fit onto a small mobile
26、 phone screen. The job of text messages is to say as much as possible with as few letters as possible. It is a whole new language. Most teenagers do not use much punctuation. Here are some examples:“Ill see you later and well go shopping” becomes “C U ltr 2 shop”. “Come to the pub at 8 oclock” becom
27、es “cum 2 pb 8”.Teachers do not mind “2” instead of “to”, “too” and “two” too much. The biggest problem is when students use text spelling in everyday writing. These include:cum=comealredi=alreadyamazn=amazingcoz=becauseenuf=enoughSee if you can work out what the following text words mean:mayBcmputa

Shes telling us all about London. Is Oxford like London? They are both cities in England, but I guess that doesn
29、t mean they are like each other. She doesnt know much about Oxford, except that it has a famous university. Weve been e-mailing each other for a while, but you havent told me much about Oxford and I havent told you much about LA. Thats what we call Los Angeles. So I will tell you about Los Angeles n
30、ow. You can tell me about Oxford when you write back.LA is one of the biggest cities in California. There are about 10,000,000 people here. We learned in school last week that in 1900 there were only 100,000 people here. So it has grown fast. It is mostly sunny here. It gets very hot in the summer-u
31、p to 28C. It doesnt get much colder than 9C. In summer we often get a thick smog because of all the petrol fumes from the cars. The heat, the way the land lies and the way the wind blow all make it worse. Some people even wear masks on bad days because they dont want to breathe it in. Do you have sm
32、og in Oxford?Eric6. BEN IN OXFORDHi Eric,We dont have smog in Oxford. We get fog sometimes, but thats all. Oxford is much smaller than LA. We only have about 135,000 people. I looked up the 1900 population, it was about 57,000. So it is about twice as many people, not ten times as many, like LA! Oxf
33、ord is much smaller than London - London has about 7,000,000 people. So that means that LA has more people than London. LA gets hotter than Oxford. We have colder winters too it can be -4C in winter.Im not surprised that your new student only knew about the university. It is famous because it is one
34、 of the oldest universities in the country. The university dates from the 12th century. Now there are about 9,400 students in residence, of whom a third are women. The city of Oxford is popular with tourists because of the universitys many beautiful medieval buildings. There are more tourists in Oxf
35、ord than students, I should think. We get a lot of tourists, all year round. We also get a lot of young foreign students because there are a lot of language schools here. You can stand in the middle of Oxford, close your eyes, and hear accents from all over the world!Ben7. POSTCARDSDear Eric,Here is
36、 a postcard from Paris. We came here at half term for a holiday. We went to Disneyland. Id like to see the Disneyland in California one day. Im speaking French because Mum and Dad have forgotten the French they learned at school! Were going to up the Eiffel Tower late this afternoon because we will
37、have dinner at the restaurant half-way up！You can go up in a lift or climb stairs. There are over 700 steps to the middle part. I dont know how many there are to the top!BenDear Ben,Some cousins came to stay with us last weekend. We took them to Disneyland. So Im sending you a postcard, because you
38、said you wanted to go! The postcard is of my mums favourite ride, which is Pirates of the Caribbean. She likes it because it isnt too fast. The reason youhave this postcard is because my mum bought it for me while I was on another ride with my cousins!Maybe you will come to stay with me one day. We
39、will go to Disneyland and go on all the fast rides!Eric 8. THE FLYING SCOTSMANEric Liddell was known as the flying Scotsman because he ran so fast. But he is most remembered as a man of honor and bravery.Eric was born in 1902 to Scottish parents. They were living in Tianjin, north China. In Chinese,
40、 he was known as Li Airui(李爱锐). Eric lived in China until the age of five. After that his parents sent him to school in England. In 1920, Eric went to the University of Edinburgh to study science.Sports played a large part in his life and he became the fastest runner in Scotland. He was chosen to be
41、 part of Britains 1924 Olympic team. The games were in Paris. The 100-meter race was his best event, but it was to be held on a Sunday. Eric, a strong Christian, refused to run on Sundays because he believed that it should be a day of rest as the Bible teaches.Although many people told him to run th
42、e race, he refused. Instead he started to train for other distances. At the Olympics he won a bronze medal in the 200-meter race and then a gold medal in the 400-meter race, setting a world record. This story is told in the award-winning 1981 movie Chariots of Fire. Though now famous in Scotland, Er
43、ic still loved and remembered China. He wanted to go back to the country where he was born. In 1925, he went to China and worked as a middle school teacher in Tianjin. Then he went to Hebei Province to help the poor people there.After the Japanese invaded（入侵）China, Eric chose to stay. He wanted to h
44、elp the sick and give hope to the Chinese people. In 1943, the Japanese sent him to a prison camp in Weifang. Even in the camp, he continued to help the old people. He also arranged games for the children, and taught them science.In 1945, Eric was very ill. He was given a chance to leave the camp bu
45、t he refused. Instead he gave this chance to a pregnant woman. This inspiring man died six months before the end of the war. Many people still remember his service to the Chinese people of that area.9. DRAMA IN THE 3000 METRESThe crowd fell silent as the starter called the competitors in the mens 30
46、00 metres to the starting line. As the athletes were moving to their marks, all eyes were on two runners Mark, the favourite for the gold medal, and a newcomer to the athletic world, Jim.Mark was very experienced and was thought by many to be the finest 3000 metres runner in the country. Until a few
47、 months before, Jim was almost unknown outside his hometown. But, he had amazed athletics fans by leaving his opponents far behind him at one athletics meeting after another. Many people thought Jim would do very well to finish second or even third. It was going to be an exciting race!The starter raised his pistol. Bang! The race had started. For the first half, Jim ran with Mark in the leading group. At the 1700 metre mark, Jim was leading with Mark in second place
