Passage 1(p2, 92 words) --- OK, come in and sit down! --- What’s happening? --- We’re having a meeting. --- That’s news to me! I’m doing my homework. What’s it about? --- The school magazine. --- What school magazine? --- Right, listen up, everyone. Did anyone watch television yesterday evening? Did you see the interview with Becky Wang? --- She sings with the band Crazy Feet. She’s my favourite singer. --- Yes, I saw it. She went to our school! --- Well, she started a school magazine called New Standard when she was a pupil here. Passage 2 (p10, 98 words) --- Hello, Betty. What’s up? What are you doing in the library? --- I was looking for some old copies of the school magazine. If I’ve got it right, it was called New Standard. --- 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. --- Well, I’m thinking about starting it again. --- Sounds like a good idea! Go on. --- I was also looking for something by Confucius and by Shakespeare. --- Really? That’s a bit difficult for the school magazine. Passage 3 (p12, 83 words) Why do I think Tom Sawyer is a great book? Mark Twain wrote the story in eighteen seventy six, 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 nineteenth 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. Passage 4 (p18, 97 words) --- Hi, Tony. You look tired. --- Yes. I’m training with BIG, the Beijing International Globetrotters, for the School’s Basketball Competition. It’s the big match next week. --- Who’s it against? --- HAS. --- What does HAS stand for? --- Haidian All Stars. --- Oh, yes. You were defeated last time. --- What was the score? --- All Stars ninety eight points to Globetrotters fifty two. So when will the match be held? --- Next Saturday. Are you coming? --- Yes. It’s going to be a tough match. I’m going to write a report for New Standard. Passage 5 (p20, 99 words) 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. 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. Passage 6 (p26, 91 words) --- Dad, can I ask a favour? Can I borrow your digital camera? --- Why? --- I’d like to take some photos on the school visit to the museum next week. --- Is this for your school magazine? Has it been published yet? --- Yes, two issues have been published. But it’s going to be an online magazine from now on. --- What’s wrong with an ordinary magazine? --- Do you mean using paper? It’s too expensive. If the magazine is online, paper won’t be needed. That’s an important advantage. Passage 7 (p34, 97 words) --- Let’s go to the Science and Technology room. It’s upstairs. --- Come on! This way! I’m looking forward to this! --- Shh! No shouting! It’s against the rules. --- But I want to go upstairs before we have to go home. --- Hang on a minute! You mustn't go up there! Come back! --- What’s the matter? --- Look at the sign — "No entry". --- Oh! Why? --- It’s closed until January. And the Natural History room as well. --- Oh dear. My classmates and I have got to write a report for homework by Friday. Passage 8 (p42, 88 words) --- Hey, you guys! Guess what! We’ve just got an email from a reader of our New Standard! --- Great! What does it say? --- It’s from Zhao Ming. He says, “I saw your enjoyable online magazine while I was doing my homework on favourite books.” --- He read Mr Jackson’s article! --- He says, “When are you going to write about environmental education? I’m at a green school in Dalian ...” --- What’s a green school? --- “… and everyone agrees we must be careful about the environment.” Passage 9 (p44, 84 words) 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 means “use less”. Don’t waste things. Reuse means “use again”. Use things for as long as possible. Recycle means “change things into something else”. (责任编辑：admin) |
