Today is my first day at Senior High school and Im writing down my thoughts about it. My new school is very good and I can see why. The teachers are ve

2、ry enthusiastic and friendly and the classrooms are amazing. Every room has a computer with a special screen, almost as big as a cinema screen. The teachers write on the computer, and their words appear on the screen behind them. The screens also show photographs, text and information from websites.

3、 Theyre brilliant! The English class is really interesting. The teacher is a very enthusiastic woman called Ms Shen. Were using a new textbook and Ms Shens method of teaching is nothing like that of the teachers at my Junior High school. She thinks that reading comprehension is important, but we spe

4、ak a lot in class, too. And we have fun. I dont think I will be bored in Ms Shens class! Today we introduced ourselves to each other. We did this in groups. Some students were embarrassed at first but everyone was very friendly and it was really nice. Ms Shen gave us instructions and then we worked

5、by ourselves. Ms Shen wants to help us improve our spelling and handwriting. We do this in a fun way, with spelling games and other activities. I like her attitude very much, and the behaviour of the other students shows that they like her, too. There are sixty-five students in my classmore than my

6、previous class in Junior High. Forty-nine of them are girls. In other words, there are three times as many girlsas boys. They say that girls are usually more hard-working than boys, but in this class, everyone is hard-working. For our homework tonight, we have to write a description of the street wh

7、ere we live. Im looking forward to doing it!Module 2They say that first impressions are very important. My first impression of Mrs. Li was that she was nervous and shy. I think perhaps she was, as it was her first lesson with us. But now, after two weeks, the class really likes working with her. She

8、s kind and patient, and she explains English grammar so clearly that even I can understand it!She avoids making you feel stupid! Ive always hated making mistakes or pronouncing a word incorrectly when I speak English, but Mrs. Li just smiles, so that you dont feel completely stupid! I think maybe sh

9、e goes a bit too slowly for the faster students, but for me its wonderful! I feel Im going to make progress with her.Id guess that Mrs. Chen is almost sixty. Shes verystrictwe dont dare to say a word unless she asks us to. Shes also very serious and doesnt smile much. When she asks you to do somethi

10、ng, you do it immediately! There are a few students in our class who keep coming to class late but theyre always on time for Mrs. Chens lessons! Some of our class dont like her, but most of us really appreciate her because her teaching is so well organised and clear. And a few students even admit li

11、king her! During scientific experiments, she explains exactly what is happening and as a result my work is improving. Physics will never be my favourite lesson,but I think that Ill do well in the exam with Mrs. Chen teaching me.Mr. Wus only been teaching us for two weeks and hes already very popular

12、. I think this is because he really enjoys teaching Chinese literaturehe loves it, in fact! Hes got so much energy; this is one class you do not fall asleep in! Hes about 28, I think, and is rather good-looking. He talks loudly and fast, and waves his hands about a lot when he gets excited. Hes real

13、ly amusing and tells jokes when he thinks were getting bored. Even things like compositions and summaries are fun with Mr. Wu. I respect him a lot.Module 3My name is Alice Thompson. I come from Sydney, Australia and Im 18 years old. Recently I had my first ride on a long-distance train. And what a r

14、ide! A friend and I travelled on the famous Ghan train. We got on in Sydney and we got off in Alice Springs, right in the middle of Australia, more than four thousand kilometres away. We spent two days and nights on the train.The train was wonderful and the food was great. We ate great meals cooked

15、by experts! For the first few hundred kilometres of the journey, the scenery was very colourful. There were fields and the soil was dark red. After that, it was desert. The sun shone, there was no wind and there were no clouds in the sky. Suddenly, it looked like a place from another time. We saw ab

16、andoned farms which were built more than a hundred years ago.The train was comfortable and the people were nice.During the day, I sat and looked out of the window, and sometimes talked to other passengers. I read books and listened to my Chinese cassettes (Im studying Chinese at school). One night, at about midnight, I watched the night sky for about an hour. The stars shone like diamonds.Why
