Listen and read.

Betty: OK, come in and sit down!

Daming: What's happening?

Lingling: We're having a meeting.

Daming: That's news to me! I'm doing my homework. What's it about?

Lingling: The school magazine.

Daming: What school magazine?

Betty: Right, listen up, everyone. Did anyone watch television yesterday evening? Did you see the interview with Becky Wang?

Lingling: She sings with the band Crazy Feet. She's my favourite singer. Tony: Yes, I saw it. She went to our school!

Betty: Well, she started a school magazine called New Standard when she was a pupil here. So why don't we start a school magazine, too? I've written down some ideas. We'll write a diary of school events, and tell everyone about the school concert and the dance club.

Tony: And school basketball matches.

Lingling: But who will write the articles?

Betty: We'll write the articles. Any more ideas?

Tony: I know! I'll do some reviews about our favourite bands and movies! Lingling: And I'll do an interview with Becky Wang!

Betty: Brilliant! Anyone else?

Daming: How about "Homework Help"?

Tony: Yes, some ideas on how to get good grades!

Lingling: What's your homework, Daming?

Daming: I'm writing a composition called "What is a wonder of the world?" I'm reading about the ancient pyramids in Egypt.

Betty: "Homework Help". I think that's a fantastic idea, Daming.

The Greatest Wonder of the Natural World

When I arrived, it was early morning and it was raining. I got out of the car, went through a gate and walked along a path. In the east, the sky was becoming light, but beside the path, it was still very dark. I knew it was there, but there was nothing to see.

After about a kilometre, a stranger appeared in front of me. "Am I going the right way?" I asked. He knew where I was going. "Yes," he replied, "you'll get there in five minutes." Finally, I came to some rocks, and stopped. I looked carefully over them, but it was still too dark to see anything.

Suddenly, the clouds cleared and the rain stopped. The sun rose behind me and beyond the rocks. I saw that the ground fell away and down to a river, far below me. I was on the edge of the Grand Canyon, one of the wonders of the natural world.

I looked down to the Colorado River about 2 kilometres below me. If you put the three tallest buildings in the world at the bottom of the canyon, they still won't reach the top. Then I looked across to the other side of the canyon. How far is it? It's 20 kilometres, maybe more. Finally, I looked to my left and to my right, and on both sides the canyon disappeared into the distance ... over 400 kilometres long. The Grand Canyon is not just big. It's huge!

That morning on the edge of the canyon, I asked myself a question. It's not "How deep is it?" or "How wide is it?" or "How long is it?" but "Is the Grand Canyon the greatest wonder anywhere in the natural world?" I know the answer. But what do you think?

Module 2 Unit 1

Listen and read.

Mr Jackson: Hello, Betty. What's up? What are you doing in the library?

Betty: I was looking for some old copies of the school magazine. If I've got it

right, it was called New Standard .

Mr Jackson: That's right. As far as I remember, it was started by Becky Wang. We don't

have a school magazine any more. It's a pity.

Betty: Well, I'm thinking about starting it again.

Mr Jackson: Sounds like a good idea! Go on.

Betty: I was also looking for something by Confucius and by Shakespeare.

Mr Jackson: Really? That's a bit difficult for the school magazine.

Betty: Well, I'd like a monthly article called "Great Books"—you know, someone

reads a favourite work of literature and writes an article about it.

Mr Jackson: I see. Confucius' works are still read by many people today, and we're still

influenced by his thoughts. And Shakespeare's plays are seen by millions

of people every year. But how about an American writer, Mark Twain, for

example?

Betty: I don't know. Mark Twain was an important writer, but he isn't known as

a great thinker like Confucius.

Mr Jackson: No, but his books are still popular. In fact, he wrote my favourite book

The Adventures of Tom Sawyer . Perhaps that's what makes "Great

Books"—they're still read today.

Betty: So why don't you write the first article on "Great Books"?

Module 2 Unit 2

Read the passage and check your answers to the following questions.

1.What did Betty suggest at the end of the conversation in Unit 1?

2.What book did Mr Jackson choose?

3.What do you think happens in the book?

4.What do you think are the main ideas of the book?

Great Books

The Adventures of Tom Sawyer

Here is our monthly article on a favourite great book. This month, our guest writer is Mr Jackson.

My favourite great book is The Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain. Tom lives with his aunt Polly in the quiet streets of St Petersburg, Missouri. He's a lively and clever young boy, and he finds himself in many exciting adventures. He runs away with his two friends, Huck Finn and Joe, to an island in the middle of the Mississippi River for several days. With Huck he goes looking for treasure, with Becky he gets lost in a cave, and finally, they find a box of gold.

My favourite scene in the book is when everyone thinks Tom is dead. He decides to go to his own funeral. He hides and watches for a time, and then suddenly he appears. Everyone is surprised to see him but they're also pleased to see him alive.

Tom is the hero of the story, but there are other important characters. Huck is an outsider and everyone is afraid of him. Becky is pretty with fair hair, Joe is Tom's best friend, and Injun Joe is the bad man of the story.

The theme of the story are to do with children growing up and becoming more serious. It describes how strangers are seen in small towns of America. Finally, it talks about freedom, social rules and how people are punished for bad behaviour.

Why do I think Tom Sawyer is a great book? Mark Twain wrote the story in 1876, but it's still read and loved by people all over the world today. And although it's only

a story, Twain wrote it in the everyday English of the southern states of America in the 19th century, so it sounds very real. Today it's thought to be one of the greatest books in American literature. Go on —read it! I know you'll enjoy it, too.

Lingling: Hi, Tony. You look tired.

Tony: Yes. I'm training with BIG, the Beijing International Globetrotters, for the

School's Basketball Competition. It's the big match next week.

Betty: Who's it against ?

Daming: HAS.

Lingling: What does HAS stand for ?

Tony: Haidian All Stars.

Betty: Oh, yes. You were defeated last time.

Lingling: What was the score?

Betty: All Stars 98 points to Globetrotters 52. So when will the match be held? Daming: Next Saturday. Are you coming?

Betty: Yes. It's going to be a tough match. I'm going to write a report for New

Standard .

Lingling: I agree. Are you in the team, Daming?

Daming: No, I wasn't chosen this time. Why are you smiling, Betty?

Betty: Well, I've seen HAS play several times this season , and they're brilliant!

And if you want my opinion ...

Tony: No, I don't ...

Betty: ... you've got no chance! What do you reckon, Lingling?

Lingling: I think you're right, Betty.

Daming: Well, you won't be allowed to watch with our fans if that's what you think! Betty: It's true, Daming.

Tony: Well, I don't agree. We're playing really well this season . I think we're so

good that we'll be asked to play in the Olympic Games.

Daming: Don't let them get to you, Tony!

(They leave)

Lingling: Hee hee! Nice work, Betty!

Betty: Of course. They're so mad with us that they'll try harder to win, just to show

we're wrong!

Module 3 Unit 2

Read the passage and choose the sentence which best expresses the main idea.

Liu Xiang —Trained for Gold

Sports Yearbook 2004

For Liu Xiang, life as a sporting hero has just begun. First of all , he'll be invited to competitions around the world. He'll be chosen to represent China at the Olympic Games. He's a symbol of China's international sporting success.

And now that he's well known all over the world, Liu Xiang will also be asked to appear in advertisements and films, and even to record music. But his coach Sun Haiping is making sure that he trains regularly . Liu Xiang will be advised by his coach on how to be a great sportsman , and by his manager on how to be a star.

Liu Xiang is not an overnight success. He was born in Shanghai on 13th July, 1983 and, like many Olympic sports stars, he started training when he was very young. In Grade Four, he went to the Junior Sports School of Putuo District of Shanghai. Liu was

encouraged at first to train as a high jumper. Then, in 1998, his skill at hurdling was noticed by his coach Sun Haiping.

Liu Xiang was helped by a special programme. It was set up in 2001 to help young sportsmen and sportswomen. Liu's races were recorded , and his performance was compared with the world's best sports stars. Sun Haiping used the information to change Liu's training programme. In 2002 he won his first international 110m hurdles event in Switzerland, and in the same year, a gold medal at the Asian Games in Korea. In 2004, Liu won the first Olympic gold medal in the same event for China in Athens, Greece.

So what's next for Liu Xiang? Has he found out that there's more to life than training? Will he be encouraged to spend more time away from sport?

No, Liu Xiang will go for more medals for China because he was trained for gold! Liu Xiang ____.

was helped by his sports school to become a gold medal winner

has trained for many years, and will continue to win medals

will be encouraged to be a star and not a sporting hero

Tony: Dad, can I ask a favour ? Can I borrow your digital camera ?

Tony's dad: Why?

Tony: I'd like to take some photos on the school visit to the museum next week. Tony's dad: Is this for your school magazine? Has it been published yet?

Tony: Yes, two issues have been published . But it's going to be an online magazine

from now on.

Tony's dad: What's wrong with an ordinary magazine?

Tony: Do you mean using paper? It's too expensive. If the magazine is online,

paper won't be needed. That's an important advantage . It'll be published

on the school website, and it can be read on screen.

Tony's dad: Well, that makes me think. Paper and printing have been used for ages . We

once got information from books, but now the same information can be read

or even listened to on computers.

Tony: I wonder ... Can books be replaced by computers? Maybe I'll write something

for the magazine! Anyway, about the camera ...?

Tony's dad: Here it is. The battery hasn't been charged for a couple of months. It's

been turned off since your mum's birthday party.

Tony: It doesn't matter. I'll see to that.

Tony's dad: But you must promise that it won't be lent to anyone, and it won't be left

at school! Just look after it. Is that clear?

Tony: Promise!

Can Books Be Replaced by Computers?

by Tony Smith Every morning my father buys a newspaper on his way to work. Every day I open my books in class and start my lessons. Every evening my mother looks through magazines at home. And every night, I look at the posters with photos of David Beckham and Yao Ming on my bedroom wall before I go to sleep. Can we imagine life without paper or print?

Paper was first created about 2,000 years ago, and has been made from silk, cotton, bamboo, and, since the 19th century, from wood. People learned to write words on paper to make a book. But in those days, books could only be produced one at a time by hand. As a result, they were expensive and rare. And because there weren't many books, few people learned to read.

Then printing was invented in China. The first printed books were made by putting ink on a wooden block and holding the paper against it. When printing was developed greatly at the beginning of the 11th century, books could be produced more quickly and cheaply. As a result, more people learned to read. After that, knowledge and ideas spread quickly, in a way that can be compared with the introduction of the Internet in the 20th century.

But will books be needed in the future? Today information can be received online, downloaded from the Internet rather than found in books, and information can be kept on CD-ROMs or machines such as MP3 players. These machines are smaller and lighter than books so that they can be carried very easily.

Computers are already used in classrooms, and newspapers and magazines can already be read online. So will books be replaced by computers one day? No, I don't think the Yao Ming poster on my bedroom wall will ever be replaced by a computer two metres high! Module 5 Unit 1

Betty: Let's go to the Science and Technology room. It's upstairs .

Daming: Come on! This way! I'm looking forward to this!

Guard: Shh! No shouting! It's against the rules.

Daming: But I want to go upstairs before we have to go home.

Guard: Hang on a minute! You mustn't go up there! Come back!

Daming: What's the matter?

Guard: Look at the sign —"No entry ".

Daming: Oh! Why?

Guard: It's closed until January. And the Natural History room as well .

Tony: Oh dear. My classmates and I have got to write a report for homework by Friday.

Well, let's go downstairs .

Lingling: Why?

Tony: I want to buy some postcards in the shop. Where's Daming?

Lingling: I don't know. He's gone off on his own.

Tony: Look at this amazing sculpture .

Guard: Don't touch! You mustn't touch it.

Tony: Sorry. I'll just take a photo.

Guard: No, you can't take a photo, either . Look at the sign —"No photography ".

Tony: I'm sorry. I wasn't paying attention to what you were saying. I was looking

at the sculpture . It looks very real.

Lingling: Hurry up! You're taking so long. Let's go. Where's Daming?

Tony: It looks very strange. It's kind of familiar ! It looks like ...

Daming: Waaaargh!

Tony: ... Daming!

Betty: Oh, very funny! No wonder it looks real.

Lingling: It's not a sculpture. It's Daming!

The Science Museum in London

by Tony Smith The most unusual museum in London is the Science Museum. In most museums, there's no shouting and no running, and you aren't allowed to touch the exhibits. But the Science Museum is different ... because it's noisy! People talk about what they can see and do there, and some of the machines are noisy as well. Visiting the Science Museum is fun and it's a great way to learn about science because you can work things out and try out ideas.

When I visit the Science Museum, I go to the Launch Pad. This is my favourite room because you can do physics experiments. For example, if you want to fill a bag with falling sand, you have to move a kind of truck on wheels into the correct position. I also go to the Rocket Show. You can learn how we travel into space and back again.

Then I go upstairs to the Human and Nature room. You can compare your speed with animals there. You hear a noise and push a button. If you aren't fast enough, the lion catches you! I'm faster than all my friends, but the lion still catches me.

There are also rooms on transport, the environment and space technology, as well as maths, physics and chemistry.

You can do a lot of things in this museum, but you have to obey some rules as well . For example, you mustn't take photos of the exhibits in the museum. But you can buy postcards of them in the museum shops.

Above all , the Science Museum is free. That means you can drop in for a few minutes or you can stay as long as you like —it's open every day, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. So if you ever go to London, make sure you visit the Science Museum. It's my favourite museum in the whole world.

Module 6 Unit 1

Listen and read.

Betty: Hey, you guys! Guess what! We've just got an email from a reader of our New

Standard !

Lingling: Great! What does it say?

Betty: It's from Zhao Ming. He says, "I saw your enjoyable online magazine while I

was doing my homework on favourite books."

Daming: He read Mr Jackson's article!

Betty: He says, "When are you going to write about environmental education? I'm at

a green school in Dalian ..."

Daming: What's a green school?

Betty: "... and everyone agrees we must be careful about the environment. In fact,

there are thousands of green schools in China. It's wasteful to throw away

glass, paper and metal , so every class collects reusable waste , sells it for

recycling ..."

Tony: Nice idea!

Betty: "... and raises money to help students in poor areas. But it's not just at

school, it's also at home that we save energy and recycle ..."

Daming: Such as ...?

Betty: "... such as turning lights off, so we don't waste electricity." And he

finishes, "I'm hopeful that if everyone thinks about pollution and recycling,

we can protect the air and the oceans, and help save our world. If we don't,

the future is hopeless ."

Tony: Let's ask Zhao Ming to write something.

Module 6 Unit 2

Read the passage and answer the questions in the first paragraph.

How to be green

by Zhao Ming

How green are you? Do you care about protecting the environment and saving energy? Try these questions and see.

? Do you try to walk or ride a bike to school?

? Do you buy new clothes just because they are the latest fashions?

? Do you open a window instead of turning on air conditioning?

? Do you buy things produced locally instead of made abroad?

? Do you take your own cloth bag when shopping instead of using plastic bags? ? Do you sort the waste before throwing it away?

We all need a healthy environment, but we produce waste every day and it does harm to our environment. Though we are young, we can still do something to help. In fact, even the simplest everyday activities can make a real difference to the environment. Here are some ideas for you.

Remember these three words: Reduce, reuse and recycle.

Reduce

Reduce means "use less". Don't waste things. This saves money and reduces pollution and waste going into the environment. Before we buy something new, think whether it is really necessary —or maybe the old one will be just as good! When we do buy things, choose local products if possible, and try not to buy too many things from abroad. Reuse

Reuse means "use again". Use things for as long as possible. When we buy things, make sure that they last a long time. We should look after them so that they will last, and we should repair them if we can instead of throwing them away and buying new ones. Don't use a paper cup or a paper bag. It's better to use a china cup and a lunch box because you can use them again.

Recycle

Recycle means "change things into something else". Although it takes energy to change something into something else, it's better than throwing things away or burning them. Find out what can be recycled in your neighbourhood and take part in recycling programmes. We should also buy products made from recycled materials, such as recycled paper, to help save trees.

Tony's dad: Hi, Tony. What are you up to?

Tony: I'm looking for the photos that you took in Australia.

Tony's dad: OK, would you like a hand to find them?

Tony: Great! Thanks. We're doing a project about countries that we want to visit,

and I'm going to write about Australia. I have to imagine that I've been

there, and that I'm writing a letter to Mum and you.

Tony's dad: Well, have a look at these.

Tony: Let's see. Hey! What's that?

Tony's dad: It's called Uluru. It's a huge rock in the centre of Australia. It's

fantastic.

Tony: And this building?

Tony's dad: That's the Sydney Opera House. It's like a huge sailing boat with water

on three sides. And this one is a photo of a shark that I saw on the Great

Barrier Reef.

Tony: Wow! It's amazing! Did you see any kangaroos or crocodiles ?

Tony's dad: There were kangaroos that were jumping alongside the car on our way back

from Uluru. But no crocodiles .

Tony: They're great photos. By the way, can I borrow the camera again?

Tony's dad: Why?

Tony: Well, there's a photo competition that I want to win! I want to take some

photos at our school dance next week.

Tony's dad: I bet you do! OK, you can borrow it, but only once you've done your project

on Australia.

Module 7 Unit 2

Read the letter and find what the photos show.

Thursday

Dear Mum and Dad,

I'm writing this letter to you from the centre of Australia. At the moment we're staying near Uluru—that's the Aboriginal name for Ayers Rock. On the first day, we took a helicopter tour over the rock, and I was surprised at how big it was: 3.6 kilometres long and 348 metres high. The colours of the rock are fantastic, and at different times of the day, they change from purple to red. The Aborigines are the first people of Australia, and the ancient Aboriginal stories describe the spirits that created the world. Uluru is a centre of Aboriginal culture.

The Australians have many British relatives and they're like us in many ways. Their family life is similar to ours, and they enjoy the same food and hobbies. The food and drink that most Australians like are grapes, lamb, ham and especially wine that they make in the south of the country. They love all sports, but the games that they love the most are football, cricket and rugby. Because most Australians live near the coast, they love going to the beach, swimming and surfing.

Although it's December, it's summer over here. The sunshine is very bright, and near the coast the countryside is very green. There are lots of sheep in the fields and on the hills, but the outback is more like a desert, full of rocks and sand.

Most Australians speak English, although they have some special expressions such as "Good day!" and "No worries, mate." They mean "Hello!" and "Don't worry about it. It's not a problem!"

The next day after we arrived at Uluru, we went on a camel ride. The camel that I rode had a bad temper, and I got very tired. Everyone else thought it was very funny that my camel kept lying down ...

Finally, later this evening, we're taking the plane back to Sydney and coming home. It's been a fantastic trip!

Love,

Tony

Tony: You bet! By the way, is that He Zhong at the front? What's he doing here? Betty: Same as you!

Daming: Who's He Zhong?

Tony: He's the photographer who won the photo competition last time!

Daming: The one who won the photo competition last summer?

Tony: That's right.

Lingling: Shh! It's the Blues Boys playing! It's the band which gets everyone dancing.

Tony: Those drums are really loud! Maybe I'll go upstairs.

Betty: OK, but look after your camera!

(Later ...)

Betty: Hi, Tony. How did you get on?

Tony: Fine. I got some great shots of the boy who plays the guitar on the left .

Where is He Zhong?

Betty: He left early. There was something wrong with his camera.

Tony: Great! Now I'm in with a chance to win!

Lingling: But, Tony ... where's your camera?

Tony: It's here, in my bag. Oh no, it's gone!

Betty: You're kidding!

Tony: But I had it a minute ago. Perhaps I left it upstairs ...

Betty: He's quite unhappy.

Lingling: His father is the person who will be most unhappy.

Tony's dad: Hi, everyone!

Betty: Oh! Mr Smith! Help! I mean ... hello! Tony? Er, we didn't expect to see

you!

Tony's dad: I've just come to pick Tony up. Did he try out my camera?

Results of Student Photo Competition

We were very pleased with the photo competition. Compared

with other years, we received many more photos. Even though all

of the photos are excellent, we can't give prizes to everyone.

There are four prizes, so read on to find out who the winners

are.

The person who won the prize for the Most Beautiful Nature photography is fifteen-year-old Li Wei. Li took photos of the mountains in Xiangshan Park. The park isn't far from his home, about 500 metres, and he knows it very well.

The photo which we liked best in the Historic China group

was taken by Zhao Min. Zhao is only 12 years old. Her photo is

of Tian'anmen Square, the largest public square in the world.

It's 880 metres from north to south and 500 metres wide at the

northern end. Her photo shows the size and beauty of the square perfectly.

The best photo in the Music category was taken by He Zhong.

His photo of this year's best band Crazy Feet shows the singer,

Becky Wang, and the band playing at a concert in Shenzhen. He

Zhong manages to show the movement and the sounds of this great

new band, and the fun which their fans are having.

A collection of photos called "The Many Faces of Our City"

which features Beijing won the prize for the Most Unusual

category. Three pupils at the same school worked on this entry.

It includes photos of different parts of the city, old and new.

It successfully shows the rich culture which makes Beijing so famous.

Congratulations to our winners and thanks to everyone who entered the competition. We are very lucky that the famous photographer John William is in China to talk about his new book. He has agreed to present the prizes at the prize giving ceremony at the end of this month.

Betty: I can imagine every drawing in the cartoon , and I know what the ending will

be.

Daming: The cartoons I like have lots of jokes.

Lingling: But it's no laughing matter. This is serious.

Betty: This isn't one of those cartoons which make you laugh.

Daming: And the characters I like are heroes like Superman or Batman.

Lingling: We need someone like Superman who can save Tony ...

Mr Jackson: Hello, I'm looking for Tony.

Daming: He's over there !

Mr Jackson: Could you tell him I'd like to have a word with him? I've got a camera which

has got his name on it. It was upstairs.

Daming: That's good news. Shall I give it to him?

Mr Jackson: OK. Here you are.

Betty: Oh, Tony's dad is going over to speak to him.

Daming: If Tony tells his dad that he's lost the camera he borrowed, he'll be in

deep trouble.

Lingling: How can we let Tony know that we've got his dad's camera?

Daming: I know! Let's take a photo. He'll see the flash .

Betty: That's a smart idea! Give it to me!

Lingling: Well, it may not be very funny, but perhaps it'll be a cartoon which has

a happy ending.

Betty: And I'll be Superman!

Module 1 When I arrived, it was early morning and it was raining. I got out of the car, went through a gate and walked along a path. In the east, the sky was becoming light. I knew it was there, but there was nothing to see. After about a mile, a stranger appeared in front of me. “Am I going the right way?” I asked. He knew where I was going. “Yes,” he replied. “you’ll get there in five minutes.” Finally, I came to some rocks and stopped. I looked over them, but it was silent and there was no sign of it. Suddenly, the clouds cleared and the rain stopped. The sun rose behind me and beyond the rocks. I saw that the ground fell away and down to a river, far below me. I was looking across the Grand Canyon, one of the wonders of the natural world. I looked down to the Colorado River, from here a silver stream nearly one mile below me. If you put the two tallest buildings in the world on top of the each other at the bottom of the canyon, they still wouldn’t reach the top. Then I looked across to the other side of the canyon. How far is it? It’s about fifteen miles, maybe more. Finally, I looked to my left and to my right, and on both sides the canyon went far away, about 277 miles long. The Grand Canyon is not just big. It’s huge! I remained by the canyon for about half an hour, and I asked myself, “Is the Grand Canyon the greatest wonder anywhere in the natural world?” I certainly know the answer. But what do you think? Module 2 Thanksgiving is an American festival. People give thanks for their food. It’s celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November and it’s a time for a special dinner among family and friends. We’ve celebrated the festival since the first pioneers from England arrived in America by ship in the seventeenth century. While they were crossing the Atlantic, many people died, and after they landed, their first winter was worse than any English winter.

We still celebrate Thanksgiving today with a traditional dinner. The kitchen is the most crowded room in our house because we all help to prepare the food there. We lay the table, then before we begin dinner, my father gives praise for the food, so we remember where the festival comes from. We usually eat too much, but it’s only once a year! We often listen to speeches and tell stories after dinner as well. When it’s all over everyone helps wash the dishes.

Candy told me that sheused 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 lovessinging in front of crowds. I asked Candy how life was different after she became famous. She explained that there are many good things, like being able to travel andmeetne w 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.” What does Candy have to say to all those young peoplewhowant to become famous? “Well,” she b egins slowly, “you have to be prepared to give up your normal life. You can never imagine howdifficultthe 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.”

Module 1 When I arrived, it was early morning and it was raining. I got out of the car, went through a gate and walked along a path. In the east, the sky was becoming light. I knew it was there, but there was nothing to see. After about a mile, a stranger appeared in front of me. “Am I going the right way?” I asked. He knew where I was going. “Yes,”he replied. “you’ll get there in five minutes.” Finally, I came to some rocks and stopped. I looked over them, but it was silent and there was no sign of it. Suddenly, the clouds cleared and the rain stopped. The sun rose behind me and beyond the rocks. I saw that the ground fell away and down to a river, far below me. I was looking across the Grand Canyon, one of the wonders of the natural world. I looked down to the Colorado River, from here a silver stream nearly one mile below me. If you put the two tallest buildings in the world on top of the each other at the bottom of the canyon, they still wouldn’t reach the top. Then I looked across to the other side of the canyon. How far is it? It’s about fifteen miles, maybe more. Finally, I looked to my left and to my right, and on both sides the canyon went far away, about 277 miles long. The Grand Canyon is not just big. It’s huge! I remained by the canyon for about half an hour, and I asked myself, “Is the Grand Canyon the greatest wonder anywhere in the natural world?”I certainly know the answer. But what do you think? Module 2 Thanksgiving is an American festival. People give thanks for their food. It’s celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November and it’s a time for a special dinner among family and friends. We’ve celebrated the festival since the first pioneers from England arrived in America by ship in the seventeenth century. While they were crossing the Atlantic, many people died, and after they landed, their first winter was worse than any English winter. The local people, the Native Americans, taught the pioneers how to grow corn, catch fish and keep cows, sheep and hens. The following year they celebrated together by eating a dinner of the new food. We still celebrate Thanksgiving today with a traditional dinner. The kitchen is the most crowded room in our house because we all help to prepare the food there. We lay the table, then before we begin dinner, my father gives praise for the food, so we remember where the festival comes from. We usually eat too much, but it’s only once a year! We often listen to speeches and tell stories after dinner as well. When it’s all over everyone helps wash the dishes. The festival is a very busy time for travel when friends and families come together to celebrate. After we finish the Thanksgiving Day festival, there are plenty of other things to see and do. We live in New York City, and we go to watch the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, along with thousands of people as it goes along several streets and finishes at the famous Macy’s Store. Thanksgiving is also the start of the Christmas season, and we start shopping for presents. Football is also important at Thanksgiving, with many teams playing games. Like many Americans, we usually watch the games on television and enjoy ourselves very much.
