I can remember my first visit to the zoo. I saw a lion and an eagle. The lion was very lazy and slept all the time. He was very boring. The eagle suddenly flew in the air and frightened me. I started to cry！I remember the day my father tried to teach me how to ride a bicycle. I wasn’t very good at it. I said,” I don’t want to do this!” But my father was very patient and very soon he taught me how to do it. Now I ride mybicycle every day and I’m much faster than my father!I remember my first day at kindergarten very clearly. There were so many children! I only knew one of them, a boy who lived in the apartment next door. I was very nervous. But we started playing with some toys and I soon stopped feeling nervous.I remember learning to swim –it was wonderful. When I was very little, I loved swimming pools and I always wanted to swim. Everyone said that I was Olympic standard!I will never forget my first visit to the cinema. I was about four years old. The screen seemed so big! We watched a cartoon about a huge bear. It was wonderful.。
Module 1 My first day at senior highMy first day at senior highMy Name is Li Kang. I live in Shijiazhuang, a city not far from Beijing. It is the capital city of Hebei Province. Today is my first day at Senior High school and I'm writing down my thoughts about it.My new school is very good and I can see why. The teachers are very 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. They're brilliant!The English class is really interesting. The teacher is a very enthusiastic woman called Ms Shen. We're using a new textbook and Ms Shen's method of teaching is nothing like that of the teachers at my Junior High school. She thinks that reading comprehension is important, but we speak a lot in class, too. And we have fun. I don't think I will be bored in Ms Shen's 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 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 class—more than my previous class in Junior High. Forty-nine of them are girls. In other words, there are three times as many girls as 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 where we live. I'm looking forward to doing it!A letter from a senior high studentDear Li Kang,How's it going?I thought I'd write to tell you about the American school system.Secondary school in the ually covers seven years,grades six to twelve. Ninth to twelfth grades are high school.At the end of twelfth grade,American students receive the high school diploma.Students need a high school diploma if they want to go to college.The school year is divided into two semesters,the first of which is September through December,and the second January through May. We have a LONG summer vacation! We start school at 7:50 am and we finish at 3 pm.I take part in all kinds of after-school activities—I play football, basketball ,volleyball,table tennis and I go to theater club.Will you tell me something about your summer vacation and the Chinese school system in your next letter?Module 1 My first day at senior highMy first day at senior highMy Name is Li Kang.

Module 3 My First Ride On a TrainMy First Ride On a TrainMy name is Alice Thompson. I come from Sydney, Australia and I'm 18 years old. Recently I had my first ride on a long-distance train. And what a ride! 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 by experts! For the first few hundred kilometres of the journey, the scenery was very colourful. There were fields and the soi l 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 abandoned 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 (I'm studying Chinese at school). One night, at about midnight, I watched the night sky for about an hour. The stars shone like diamonds.Why is the train called the Ghan? A long time ago, Australians needed a way to travel to the middle of the country. They tried riding horses, but the horses didn't like the hot weather and sand.A hundred and fifty years ago, they brought some camels from Afghanistan. Ghan is short for Afghanistan.Camels were much better than horses for travelling a long distance. For many years, trained camels carried food and other supplies, and returned with wool and other products.The Afghans and their camels did this until the 1920s. Then the government built a new railway line, so they didn't need the camels any more. In 1925, they passed a law which allowed people to shoot the animals if they were a problem. In 1935, the police in a town shot 153 camels in one day.The Maglev - the Fastest Train in the WorldThe fastest train in the world, the Transrapid Maglev, runs between Shanghai’s Pudong Airport and Longyang station in downtown Shanghai. Traveling at a speed of over 400 kilometers per hour, the train can complete the 30-kilometer journey in eight minutes.Maglev means “magnetically levitated”. The Transrapid Maglev is the world’s first high-speed train using magnetic levitation technology. Magnetically levitated trains travel in a vacuum between two magnets. There are no rails and no noise. They travel very fast and they use less energy.On December 31, 2002, Premier Zhu Rongji and the German chancellor attended the opening ceremony of the train service. Both leaders took the train to Pudong Airport.On November 12, 2003, the Maglev reached a speed of 501 kilometers per hour on the track between Longyang Station and Pudong, a new world record speed for a train.Module 3 My First Ride On a TrainMy First Ride On a TrainMy name is Alice Thompson.
