Module 11 Photos

Unit 1 He’s the boy who won the photo competition last year!

Daming: Are you going to enter the photo competition, Tony?

Tony: You bet! I want to beat He Zhong this year. He’s not going to win it twice! Daming: Who’s He Zhong?

Tony: He’s the boy who won the photo competition last year! Daming: The one who took photos at the school dance?

Tony: That’s right. The thing is, he’s really good. And the general standard of the competition is

much higher this year.

Daming: I have a feeling that we can solve these little difficulties. What are the subjects that they’ve

chosen for this year’s competition?

Tony: Nature, Home and Away, City and People, and Music.

Daming: I think He Zhong will choose Music. Why don’t you choose the subject Home and Away,

and take photos of Beijing?

Tony: But Beijing isn’t my home town. It’s Cambridge.

Daming: It doesn’t matter. Take some photos of Beijing and add some photos of Cambridge that

you took recently.

Tony: That’s a good idea. What about that photo of my cousin flying kites with Chinese kids in

the Summer Palace? And the one of him reading a Chinese menu for the first time in Cambridge?

Daming: Nice photos! I’m sure you’re in with a chance!

Unit 2 The photo which we liked best was taken by Zhao Min

Results of the photo competition

Tonight I am more than happy to read out the winners of the photo competition. We were very pleased with our competition this year. Compared with other years, we received many more photos. Even though all of the photos are excellent, we are sorry to say that we cannot give prizes to everyone.

The person who won the prize for the subject Nature is fifteen-year-old Li Wei. Li Wei took a photo of the trees in Xiangshan Park. His photo shows the different colours on the hill.

The photo which we liked best in the City and People group was taken by Zhao Min. Zhao Min is only twelve years old. Her photo shows a person rushing across a street on a windy evening. It is a beautiful girl who is wearing a blouse and skirt, and who is protecting her books against the showers.

The best photo in the Music group was taken by He Zhong. His photo of the group Crazy Feet shows the singer, Becky Wang, and the band playing at a concert. He Zhong manages to show how this great new band moves and sounds, and the good time which their fans are having.

A group of photos which show Beijing and Cambridge in England have won the prize for the subject Home and Away. They show some of the experiences of a young visitor to our country, and some memories of his home. The winner is Tony Smith!

Congratulations to our winners and thanks to everyone who entered the competition. Now let’s welcome our headmaster to present the prizes to the winners!

Module 12 Save our world

Unit 1 If everyone starts to do something, the world will be saved.

Lingling: After our lesson on the environment, I’m worried about the future. Pollution is our great

enemy, and we have to fight it. If the rivers are polluted, farmers can’t use the water for their crops.

Tony: And in some places, pollution from factories spreads over cities and villages. It makes

people ill, and may even kill them. Pollution is a danger to our health.

Betty: And there are so many cars on the roads. They use so much oil and cause pollution as well. Daming: But we’re only students. We can’t do anything about factories and cars.

Betty: It’s no use talking about things we can’t do. we’ve got to think of things we can do! Daming: Such as …?

Lingling: Do you think we can make our school a green school? Daming: What’s a green school?

Lingling: At a green school, every class collects waste which can be recycled or used again. Then

the school sells the waste and uses the money to help students in poor areas.

Daming: Nice idea!

Betty: Students at a green school also learn ways to save energy and recycle at home. That

means less waste.

Tony: That’s a good idea. Though pollution is heavy now, I don’t think it’s hopeless. If everyone

starts to do something, the world will be saved.

Unit 2 Repeat these three words daily: reduce, reuse and recycle.

How to be green

How green are you? Answer these questions and find out. .Do you walk or ride a bike to school?

.Do you buy new clothes just because they are modern? .Do you turn off the lights when you leave the room?

.Do you take your own bag when shopping and not ask for a plastic bag?

.Do you buy drinks in bottles? And what do you do with the bottles whey they are empty? .Do you divide the waste into things to recycle and things to throw away?

We all need a healthy environment, but we produce waste every day, and it is harmful to our environment. Repeat these three words daily: reduce, reuse and recycle.

Reduce

Reduce means “use less”. Do not waste things. It saves money and causes less pollution. Do not order more food than you can finish. Turn off the lights when you do not need them. Before you buy something new, think whether it is really necessary, because maybe the old one is just as good!

Reuse

Reuse means “use again”. Use things for as long as possible. Look after them so that they will last. Repair them if possible. Do not throw them away and buy new ones. Do not use paper cups or paper bags. It is better to use china and cloth bags because they can be used many times.

Recycle

Recycle means “change things into something else to be reused”. Although it takes energy to change things into something else, …… 此处隐藏：3893字，全部文档内容请下载后查看。喜欢就下载吧 ……
