Some places are very hot, and some are very cold.There are many different plants. Some are large. Some are small. All plants need light and water. There are different animals on Earth too. Some live on the land. Some fly in the sky. Some live under the water.There are also many people like you and me on Earth. The Earth provides[prə'vaɪd] us with air, water and food. It is our home.Today, there is a lot of pollution pollution [pə'luːʃ(ə)n]. We burn [bɜːn]things to make energy. This pollutes[pə'luːt] the air. We put our rubbish['rʌbɪʃ] into the sea and under the ground. This pollutes the Earth and kills animals and plants.We must stop doing these things. It is important for us to protect [prə'tekt] theEarth for our future['fjuːtʃə].AirAir has no smell. [smel]Air has no taste. [teɪst]But when the wind blows, [bləʊ]You feel it on your face.Look at a kite,Or a plane [pleɪn] in the air.How do they stay[steɪ] there?They ride on air.How does a balloon[bə'luːn]Rise [raɪz] in the air,And lift people up[lɪft]?It uses hot air.We need air to breathe. [briːð]We need air to survive. [sə'vaɪv]And when we breathe it,It keeps us alive. [ə'laɪv]A long time ago, there were ten suns in the sky. The weather ['weðə] was very hot. Plants could not grow[grəʊ]. Animals could not live long. There was a man. His name was Houyi. He shot (shoot [ʃuːt] )nine suns out of the sky. In the end, only one sun remained[rɪ'meɪn] . The weather got cooler. Plants could grow. People were happy.Unit 4The four seasons['siːz(ə)n]SpringIn spring, the weather starts to get warm. The wind blows [bləʊ] gently['dʒentl ɪ]. It often rains.

It is nice to go on a picnic ['pɪknɪk] at this time of year because the weather is cool and dry [draɪ].WinterWinter is often cold and snowy['snəʊɪ]. Children love winter because they love to play in the snow. It is interesting to make snowmen.

Tomorrow I’ll be one of the first students to travel into space. The spaceship['speɪsʃɪp] will leave the Earth at 9 a. m. It’ll take us to the Moon. I can’t wait!The Moon is around[ə'raʊnd] 380,000 kilometers from the Earth, so it’ll take us about four days to get there. There’s no gravity['grævɪtɪ] in space, so we’ll be able to float [fləʊt] around the spaceship. We’ll have to tie[taɪ] ourselves to our beds so that we won’t float away [fləʊt] in our sleep! Without gravity, our bodies may get weak [wiːk], so we’ll have to do exercises ['eksəsaɪz] every day.When we arrive, I’m going to walk on the Moon. I’ll have to wear a spacesuit['speɪssuːt; -sjuːt] to help me breathe [briːð] because there’s no air on the Moon. I’m going to take as many photos as I can, that is, if my camera ['kæm(ə)rə] still works up there…Hotels on the MoonDo you want to spend your holidays in hotels on the Moon?At the moment, there are no hotels on the Moon. But all this will change[tʃeɪn(d)ʒ]. If we can solve[sɒlv] some problems, we will be able to build hotels there in the future. The Moon is very cold, so the hotels will have to be warm. They will also need a large amount of air so that people there can breathe[briːð].The hotels on the Moon will have rooms with big windows so that you can see the Earth. You will be able to swim in the hotel swimming pool [puːl] and see allthe stars around you. But you should not get too excited[ɪk'saɪtɪd] . A trip to the Moon will cost a lot of money!Unit 6Visiting ShanghaiShanghai is one of the largest cities in the world. If you like sightseeing['saɪtsiːɪŋ], you will love it!People’s Square[skweə]People’s Square is in the center of Shanghai. It is a large public['pʌblɪk] area['eərɪə] with green grass, fountains ['faʊntɪn] and birds. If you visit People’s Square, you can also see famous buildings around it, such as the Shanghai Grand [grænd] Theater['θiətə, 'θi:ə-] and the Shanghai Museum.The Bund [bʌnd]The Bund is where old Shanghai meets new Shanghai. If you walk along the Bund, you will see many old buildings. The Pudong New Area, just across the Huangpu River, has many modern buildings. At night, these tall buildings light up the sky in every direction[dɪ'rekʃ(ə)n; daɪ-].Yu GardenYu Garden is a traditional [trə'dɪʃ(ə)n(ə)l] garden.

They are natural ['nætʃ(ə)r(ə)l]or man-made['mæn'med]places. We protect[prə'tekt] these places because they are very special and important to world culture ['kʌltʃə]. China has the third most heritage sites in the world after Italy['itəli]and Spain[spein].There are more than 40 sites in China, for example, the Great Wall and West Lake. You can find a list of the sites on the Internet.Unit 7The Clubs [klʌb] Fair[feə]Linda and Leo are new students at Rosie Bridge School. Last month, they attended [ə'tend] the Clubs Fair.First, Linda and Leo learnt about the Rocket ['rɒkɪt] Club.“Our club will teach you how to build rockets. Then you can launch [lɔːn tʃ] them into the sky,” a boy said. “Watch!”He took a rocket and launched it. The rocket disappeared[dɪsə'pɪə] into the sky. Linda and Leo were very surprised.“Will it go all the way into space?” Linda asked.“Of course it won’t,” a girl from another club shouted. “Our club is better. Come and join the Solar['səʊlə] Power ['paʊə] Club.”“What do you do?” asked Leo.“We make wonderful machines[mə'ʃiːn]. They only use solar power. Look!”She took a toy car [tɒɪ] from the table and then used a remote[rɪ'məʊt] control [kən'trəʊl] to drive it all around the playground ['pleɪgraʊnd].“It uses power from the Sun,” said Linda. “That’s amazing[ə'mezɪŋ]!”Linda and Leo learnt about many clubs. After the fair, they felt very excited[ɪk'saɪtɪd].“I want to join [dʒɒɪn]all the clubs,” said Linda.“Me too!” said Leo.A trip [trɪp] to Lucky['lʌkɪ] Island['aɪlənd]Last Sunday, my friends and I went on an adventure [əd'ventʃə]with the Hiking['haɪkɪŋ] Club.

I hurried to school ['hʌrɪ] and met other students and Mr. Li, our trip leader. When we were all there, we left for Lucky Island.The boat ride to Lucky Island was really exciting[ɪk'saɪtɪŋ]! We saw a lot of fish and colorful ['kʌlɚfəl] birds. When we got to Lucky Island, we went on a long walk and saw some pretty ['prɪtɪ] flowers. After the hike[haɪk], we were very hungry! We sat on the beach[biːtʃ]and ate our lunch. After that, we played games and took pictures. We really enjoyed ourselves. Finally it was time to go home. I cannot wait for my next adventure[əd'ventʃə] with Mr. Li and the Hiking Club!Summer camps[kæmp]Many children in the USA and Canada go to summer camps. Many summer camps take place in the countryside ['kʌntrɪsaɪd]. Young children usually join day camps. They go back home after spending a few hours at camp. Olderchildren may spend a few nights away from home. They can make new friends and learn useful['juːsfʊl; -f(ə)l] skills[skɪl] at camp.There are also summer camps in China. Some summer camps are for international students[ɪntə'næʃ(ə)n(ə)l]. Many of them like to learn about Chinese culture['kʌltʃə].Unit 8Unusual [ʌn'juːʒʊəl] collections [kə'lekʃ(ə)n]Sam and Helen’s grandparents ['ɡrænd,pεərənt] collect [kə'lekt] almost everything. There are eight doorbells ['dɔːbel] on their front door!“This silver ['sɪlvə] doorbell is my favorite ['feivərit],” said Helen. She pushed [pʊʃ] it and soon Grandpa opened the door.“Come in, my dear grandson ['græn(d)sʌn] and granddaughter['grændɔːtə]!” he said.“Who started collecting doorbells, Grandpa?” asked Sam.“Your grandma,” he answered. “She loves doorbells.”“What do you like collecting, Grandpa?” asked Helen.“I like collecting newspapers.”They went inside [ɪn'saɪd] and saw newspapers everywhere.“Hello children!” called Grandma. “Let’s have some tea.”The children followed her into the living room and saw lots of toys[tɒɪ]there. There was hardly ['hɑːdlɪ] any space [speɪs] for the children to sit down.“Whose toys are these?” asked Helen.“They are ours,” said Grandma. “We both like collecting toys.”“But remember,”said Grandpa, “we have a lot of free time! You have yourschool work to do, so you shouldn’t spend too much time collecting things!”My collection[kə'lekʃ(ə)n]Harry has written about his collection of postcards['pəustka:d].I collect postcards. I started the collection two years ago.Now I have over 100 different postcards. Some show famous places of interest. Some show great works of art. My favorite postcard is from the UK. It has a picture of Big Ben on it.It is easy to get postcards. Friends send [send] them to each other for holidays or birthdays.I like collecting postcards. They are beautiful and teach me a lot about different places.Collecting stamps is educational [edʒʊ'keɪʃən(ə)l]!Yesterday was Show and Tell Day at Daniel’s school.Daniel was the first student to speak. He showed his classmates['klɑːsmeɪt] an old stamp[stæmp].“My father gave me this first stamp,”said Daniel. “It has a picture of an old Chinese stone bridge[stəʊn] [brɪdʒ] on it. This made me more interested in Chinese culture. Soon I started to look for more stamps with interesting pictures.”“Now I have over 100 stamps,” said Daniel. “I learnt a lot about our country and its great culture from the stamps! Collecting stamps is really educational!”“That was a great talk. Thank you, Daniel,” said the teacher.Postcards['pəustka:d].We can learn a lot about a place, its history ['hɪst(ə)rɪ] and culture['kʌltʃə] from a postcard and stamp[stæmp] on it.In 2005, some postcard collectors[kə'lektə]from different countries started aproject['prɒdʒekt]. First, they created(create [kriː'eɪt])a website ['wɛbsaɪt] . Then people from all over the world could join and become members ['membə]. The members send each other postcards. As a result[rɪ'zʌlt], they make new friends and learn about the culture and history of different countries. 下册Unit 1My grandmaMy grandma was a short woman with grey[greɪ] hair. She was always cheerful ['tʃɪəfʊl; -f(ə)l]. She was a very good cook[kʊk]. Her dishes[dɪʃ] were probably ['prɒbəblɪ] the best in the world! I will never forget the taste[teɪst], and the smell[smel] as well.Grandma took care of my family. She was really kind and patient['peɪʃ(ə)nt]. She died two years ago and I miss[mɪs] her very much.——BenAliceAlice is my best friend. She is a tall girl with glasses. She often tells me jokes [dʒəʊk] to make me laugh[lɑːf], but she never makes fun of others.Alice is a smart [smɑːt] girl. She is good at Maths[mæθs]. We often study and play table tennis ['tenɪs]together. I hope we will always remain[rɪ'meɪn] friends.JoyceMr. LiMr. Li is my Maths teacher. He is tall and thin[θɪn]. His classes are always full of fun. He uses lots of games in his teaching['tiːtʃɪŋ].Mr. Li is strict about[strɪkt] our studies, but he always encourages (encourage [ɪn'kʌrɪdʒ; en-])us and gives us support[sə'pɔːt]. He often says, "Never give up and you'll be successful[sək'sesfʊl; -f(ə)l]."--AmyMother's DayMums do a lot of hard work. They cook and clean for us. They also encourage [ɪn'kʌrɪdʒ; en-] us and give us support[sə'pɔːt]. Mother's Day is the time for us to say "Thank you" to our mums.In most countries, people celebrate['selɪbreɪt]Mother's Day on the second Sunday in May every year. On this day, people like to buy flowers and make special ['speʃ(ə)l] Mother's Day cards [kɑːd] for their mums.Mother's Day is not only about gifts[gɪft]. We can help our mums do the housework. We can take them to the park or the cinema. Sometimes a simple hug[hʌg]or saying "I love you, Mum" is the perfect ['pɜːfɪkt]gift for our mums.Mother's Day is about love. If you love your mum, why not plan a special Mother’s Day for her?Unit 2France[frɑːns] is callingFrance is in Western ['west(ə)n] Europe['jʊrəp].

This is the place to go if you want to visit some shops and department stores[dɪ'pɑːtm(ə)nt] [stɔː].France is very famous for its wine[waɪn]. There are many vineyards ['vɪnjɚd]in the centre of France and farmers grow grapes[greɪp]to make excellent ['eks(ə)l(ə)nt] French wine.The south of France lies on the coast [kəʊst], and it is famous for its wonderful ['wʌndəfʊl; -f(ə)l] beaches[biːtʃ]. A French town[taʊn] by the sea is the perfect place for a summer holiday, but if you prefer to [prɪ'fɜː] visit France in winter, you can try skiing ['skiːɪŋ]on the mountains in the French Alps [ælps].France has something for everyone, so why not visit France this year?Last July, I went to Beijing to visit uncle Zhang. He took me to many interesting places such as the Great Wall, the Summer Palace['pælɪs]and the Palace Museum[mjuː'zɪəm]. I learnt a lot about the Ming and the Qing dynasties(dynasty ['daɪnəsti]).

Write to me soon and tell me about yourself.Best wishes,MandyThe Leaning (lean [liːn]) Tower['taʊə] of PisaThe Tower of Pisa is one of the most beautiful bell[bel] towers in Italy. It is not only beautiful, but also strange-it leans to one side. Today it is known as "the Leaning Tower of Pisa".The building of the tower began in 1173. It took nearly ['nɪəlɪ] 200 years to complete [kəm'pliːt]. In 1178, when the building got to the third floor, it started to lean. The builders tried to make the tower straight straight [streɪt] again when they built the upper ['ʌpə] floors[flɔː], but failed [feɪl].Over the years, the tower has continued to (continue [kən'tɪnjuː])lean further ['fɜːðə]. Experts ['ekspɜːt] have done a lot of studies (study) and tried to "rescue"['reskjuː] the tower. In 1990, it was closed to the public ['pʌblɪk] for safety ['seɪftɪ] reasons['riːz(ə)n]. After a lot of effort['efət], it reopened[riː'əʊp(ə)n] in 2001. Hopefully['həʊpfʊlɪ; -f(ə)lɪ] it will be safe for at least[liːst] the next 300 years.Unit 3A blind[blaɪnd] man and his “eyes” in a fireOne day, John Dancer and Charlie arrived at a hotel [həʊ'tel; əʊ-].“Good evening, sir,” said the receptio nist[rɪ'sepʃ(ə)nɪst]. “You’re welcome to stay [steɪ] , but I’m sorry that we don’t allow [ə'laʊ] pets [pet] here.”“Charlie isn’t a pet,” said John. “He’s my eyes. I’m blind and I can’t go anywhere by myself.”The receptionist apologized (apologize [ə'pɔlədʒaiz])and led (lead [liːd])John and Charlie to their room.John was very tired[taɪəd]. He soon fell asleep[ə'sliːp]. Some time later,Charlie started barking[bɑːk]. John woke up ( wake up [weɪk] ) and smelt smoke. A fire! Smoke started to come in from under the door. With Charlie’s help, John put some wet[wet] towels ['taʊəl] along the bottom ['bɔtəm] of the door. Then he got down on the floor next to Charlie and waited.Soon he heard the sound of a fire engine['endʒɪn]. A fireman ['faɪəmən] arrived and got him out of the building, but the fireman did not want to take Charlie. John would not go without his “eyes”. Finally['faɪnəlɪ], the fireman got Charlie out of the building too and they were both safe.A friendly ['fren(d)lɪ] dolphin ['dɔlfin]Last month, I went to swim in the sea. I swam really far, past the rocks [rɔk] and out to sea.Then I saw something moving (move [muːv])towards me. It was huge andgrey[greɪ] , with a large fin. It was a shark[ʃɑːk]! I began to swim back, but the beach[biːtʃ] was too far away. The shark started to swim around me.I was really scared [skεəd]. Suddenly another creature['kriːtʃə] appeared (appear [ə'pɪə]) next to me in the water. It was a dolphin! It pushed me away from the shark. I sat on its back as it swam towards the beach.Soon we were near the beach. The shark did not follow us. As soon as I stepped onto (step [step])the beach, the dolphin swam away. I will always remember how this friendly animal saved (save [seɪv]) my life.Unit 4Trees in our daily['deɪlɪ] livesRebecca wants to know more about trees and how they help us. She is interviewing ['ɪntəvjuː] Dr. Jones about trees.Rebecca: How do trees help us, Dr. Jones?Dr. Jones: They help us in many ways. They keep the air cool and clean. They take in harmful ['hɑːmfʊl; -f(ə)l] gases (gas [gæs])from the air and produce[prə'djuːs]oxygen ['ɒksɪdʒ(ə)n]for us to breathe [briːð]. They’re major['meɪdʒə] fighters ['faɪtə] against air pollution [pə'luːʃ(ə)n].Rebecca: I know trees also make our lives more convenient [kən'viːnɪənt]. Many of the things in our daily lives come from trees. For example, paper and pencils.Dr. Jones:You are right, Rebecca. In fact, we get a lot more from trees. We get fruit and oil [ɔɪl] from them. Tea [tiː] also comes from the leaves of trees. Lookaround this room. A lot of the furniture['fɜːnɪtʃə]is made of wood [wʊd]. Trees are really important in our daily lives.Rebecca: I can’t imagine [ɪ'mædʒɪn] a world without trees.Dr. Jones: But we cut down[kʌt] millions of trees every year. We should stop doing this if we don’t want a world without trees.The Amazon['æməzn] rainforest ['ren'fɔrɪst]The Amazon rainforest in South America is the largest rainforest in the world. It covers ['kʌvə] five and a half million square[skweə] kilometers ['kɪlə,mitɚ] of the Amazon Basin ['beɪs(ə)n] and spreads [spred] across nine countries. The Amazon rainforest is very important because it is home to thousands of animals, birds and insects ['ɪnsekt] . However, people are destroying[dɪ'strɔɪ] the area by cutting down many of the trees. This is called “deforestation” [,di,fɔr ɪ'steʃən]. Many living things ['lɪvɪŋ]lose [luːz] their homes because of deforestation[,di,fɔrɪ'steʃən]. As a result, the number of kinds of animals, birds, insects ['ɪnsekt] and trees in the world is decreasing (decrease [dɪ'kriːs]).We must do our best to protect [prə'tekt] the Amazon rainforest.Unit 5Water talksDora was in the bathroom['bɑːθruːm; -rʊm]. The tap[tæp] was on.“Turn that tap off,” said an angry voice,“You are wasting water(waste [weɪst]).”Dora looked around, but there was no one there.“Who are you?”“I’m a drop of water[drɒp]. Do you know where I come from?“From the tap?” asked Dora.“A few days ago, I was in a cloud,”said the drop of water. “Then I dropped into a river and ran into a reservoir['rezəvwɑ: (r)]. Then it was time for people to clean me.”“Clean you?” Dora asked.“Yes. I was dirty ['dɜːtɪ]. They cleaned me and added [æd] some chemicals['kemɪk(ə)l] to me. Then I travelled through the pipes[paɪp] under the streets and now I’m here.”Dora asked, “So is this the end of your journey ['dʒɜːnɪ] ?”“No. People will make me clean again. I’ll go into a river and then into the sea again.”“Again?”“Yes. My journey s tarts there. Remember not to waste[weɪst] or pollute me. I’m valuable ['væljʊb(ə)l].”Dora turned tap off and came out of the bathroom.Facts [fækt] about waterHere are some interesting facts about water:About 70% of the human body ['bɒdɪ] is water.Oceans ['əʊʃ(ə)n] cover['kʌvə] about 75% of the Earth, but ocean water is salty['sɔlti].Therefore ['ðeəfɔː] most of the water in the world is not drinkable['drɪŋkəbl]. Groundwater ['graʊnd'wɔtɚ] may be drinkable, but it is not easy to find groundwater that is clean and safe to drink.If water drips[drɪp] from your tap every 10 seconds['sek(ə)nd], you will waste about 315 liters ['litər] of water a year—enough to fill [fɪl] two baths [bɑːθ]! Having a bath uses about twice[twaɪs] as much water as taking a shower ['ʃaʊə] . Having a shower instead of [ɪn'sted] a bath can save [seɪv] up to 400 liters ['litər] a week.Unit 6Electricity [ɪ'lɛk'trɪsəti] all aroundOne eveing, Daisy said, “I’m going to buy a packet of['pækɪt] sweets [swiːt]. Does anyone want anything?”Benny, Daisy’s brother, replied(reply [rɪ'plaɪ]), “Can you get me a packet of electricity?”“Yes, I can,” said Daisy. Then she went out.Benny laughed, “She can’t buy electricity in packets like 像sweets! She’ll look foolish['fuːlɪʃ].”Mum said, “You mustn’t say that, Benny!”“What do you know about electricity, Benny?” Dad asked.。

牛津译林版七年级英语上册课文牛津译林版七年级英语上册课文一、My Daily Routine(我的日常生活)Hi, everyone! I'm Lisa, a seventh-grade student. Today, I'd like to share with you my daily routine.I usually wake up at 6 o'clock in the morning. After washing my face and brushing my teeth, I have a quick breakfast. Then, I catch the school bus at 7 o'clock sharp. The journey to school takes about half an hour.My classes start at 8 o'clock. I have six different subjects each day, including Chinese, English, Math, Science, History, and Physical Education. The lessons are interesting and challenging. Our teachers are knowledgeable and passionate. I especially enjoy English class because it helps me improve my vocabulary and pronunciation.During the lunch break at 12 o'clock, I eat with my classmates in the school cafeteria. We chat and laugh while enjoying our meals. In the afternoon, we have another two classes before school ends at 3:30.After school, I participate in various extracurricular activities, such as playing basketball and learning piano. These activities help me relax and develop new skills. When I return home, I usually spend some time doing homework and reviewing what I learned in class.In the evening, I have dinner with my family. We often talk about our day and share interesting stories. After dinner, I do some reading or watch educational programs on TV. I believe that continuous learning is crucial for personal growth.Before going to bed, I always reflect on my day and make a to-do list for the next day. It helps me stay organized and productive. I go to sleep around 10 o'clock, ensuring that I get enough rest for another exciting day ahead.二、My Favorite Hobby(我最喜爱的爱好)Hello, everyone! Today, I want to talk about my favorite hobby—painting. Ever since I was a kid, I have always been fascinated by colors and the beauty they can bring to life.I enjoy spending my free time in front of an easel, with a paintbrush in my hand. Painting allows me to express my feelings and emotions in a unique and creative way. Whether it's a landscape, a portrait, or an abstract piece, each stroke on the canvas is a reflection of my inner self.Nature is my biggest inspiration. I love capturing the vivid colors of the sunrise, the gentle movement of ocean waves, and the delicate petals of flowers. When I paint, I feel connected to the world around me. It's a meditative experience that brings me joy and tranquility.I have also joined an art club at school, where I can share my works withother passionate artists. We often have art exhibitions, showcasing our talent and creativity. It's amazing to see how different people interpret the same subject in their unique styles.Painting has taught me patience and perseverance. Sometimes, it takes hours or even days to complete a piece. But the sense of accomplishment I feel when I finish a painting is truly rewarding. It reminds me that with determination and effort, I can achieve anything I set my mind to.In the future, I hope to continue honing my painting skills and exploring different art forms. Who knows? Maybe one day I'll become a famous artist and have my own gallery. For now, I'll cherish each brushstroke and continue creating art that speaks to my soul.三、My Memorable Trip(我难忘的旅行)Greetings, fellow adventurers! Today, I want to share with you a memorable trip I took to a quaint village nestled in the mountains.It was a sunny morning when my family and I embarked on our journey. The air was fresh, and the scent of blooming flowers filled our senses. The winding road led us to a breathtaking view of lush greenery and cascading waterfalls.Upon arriving, we were warmly welcomed by the locals. Their hospitality and kindness made us feel at home. We stayed in a cozy guesthouse, surrounded by majestic mountains and crystal-clear rivers. The tranquility ofthe village was a soothing balm for our weary souls.During our stay, we explored the village and its surroundings. We hiked to the mountaintop, where we could see the panoramic view of the entire valley. The sight was awe-inspiring and left an indelible mark in our hearts. We also visited the local market, where we tasted delicious homemade treats and interacted with the friendly villagers.One particular highlight of the trip was a visit to a nearby temple. Its intricate architecture and serene atmosphere captivated us. We lit incense and offered prayers, hoping for blessings and good fortune.Another unforgettable experience was a traditional dance performance by the villagers. The vibrant costumes and graceful movements transported us to a different era. We couldn't help but join in the festivities, dancing with joy and laughter.As our trip came to an end, we bid farewell to the village and its people. Our hearts were filled with gratitude for the memories we had created together. It was a trip that reminded us of the beauty of simplicity and the importance of connecting with nature and fellow human beings.In conclusion, this trip will forever hold a special place in my heart. It taught me the value of exploration, cultural exchange, and embracing the wonders of the world. I look forward to embarking on more adventures and creating many more memories in the future.四、Conclusion(结语)In this article, I shared with you my daily routine, my favorite hobby, and a memorable trip. Each of these experiences has shaped me into the person I am today. They have taught me the importance of discipline, creativity, and appreciation for the world around me.I believe that life is a collection of experiences, and we should embrace every opportunity for growth and self-discovery. Whether it's following a daily routine, pursuing a passion, or embarking on an adventure, each step we take contributes to our personal journey.So, let's make the most of every moment and cherish the richness of life. Let's strive for excellence, nurture our talents, and create beautiful memories along the way.。

Without gravity, our bodies may get weak [wiːk], so we’ll have to do exercises ['eksəsaɪz] every day.When we arrive, I’m going to walk on the Moon. I’ll have to wear a spacesuit['speɪssuːt; -sjuːt] to help me breathe [briːð] because there’s no air on the Moon. I’m going to take as many photos as I can, that is, if my camera ['kæm(ə)rə] still works up there…Hotels on the MoonDo you want to spend your holidays in hotels on the Moon?At the moment, there are no hotels on the Moon. But all this will change[tʃeɪn(d)ʒ]. If we can solve[sɒlv] some problems, we will be able to build hotels there in the future. The Moon is very cold, so the hotels will have to be warm. They will also need a large amount of air so that people there can breathe[briːð].The hotels on the Moon will have rooms with big windows so that you can see the Earth. You will be able to swim in the hotel swimming pool [puːl] and see all the stars around you. But you should not get too excited[ɪk'saɪtɪd] . A trip to the Moon will cost a lot of money!Visiting ShanghaiShanghai is one of the largest cities in the world. If you like sightseeing['saɪtsiːɪŋ], you will love it!People’s Square[skweə]People’s Square is in the center of Shanghai. It is a large public['pʌblɪk] area['eərɪə] with green grass, fountains ['faʊntɪn] and birds. If you visit People’s Square, you can also see famous buildings around it, such as the Shanghai Grand [grænd] Theater['θiətə, 'θi:ə-] and the Shanghai Museum.The Bund [bʌnd]The Bund is where old Shanghai meets new Shanghai. If you walk along the Bund, you will see many old buildings. The Pudong New Area, just across the Huangpu River, has many modern buildings. At night, these tall buildings light up the sky in every direction[dɪ'rekʃ(ə)n; daɪ-].Yu GardenYu Garden is a traditional [trə'dɪʃ(ə)n(ə)l] garden. If you enjoy history and natural ['nætʃ(ə)r(ə)l] beauty['bjuːtɪ], you will love this garden. There are many beautiful buildings, bridges[brɪdʒ] and ponds [pɒnd]. You can also buy different snacks [snæk] just outside the garden.Hong Kong —a wonderful place to visitIf you like shopping, you will love Hong Kong. There are some expensive shops and also some cheap ones. There is something for everyone in Hong Kong.One of the most interesting places in Hong Kong is Ocean Park ['əʊʃ(ə)n]. You can visit the Lowland['ləʊlənd] Gardens to see some animals, or get a bird’s-eye view [vjuː] of the whole park by riding in a cable car['keɪb(ə)l]. At the Ocean['əʊʃ(ə)n] Theater['θɪətə], you can watch a dolphin['dɒlfɪn] show.Visitors from all over the world come to Hong Kong every year and have a wonderful time.World Heritage['herɪtɪdʒ] SitesThere are over 900 World Heritage Sites around the world. They are natural ['nætʃ(ə)r(ə)l] or man-made ['mæn'med] places. We protect[prə'tekt] these places because they are very special and important to world culture ['kʌltʃə].China has the third most heritage sites in the world after Italy['itəli] and Spain[spein]. There are more than 40 sites in China, for example, the Great Wall and West Lake. You can find a list of the sites on the Internet.Unit 7The Clubs [klʌb] Fair[feə]Linda and Leo are new students at Rosie Bridge School. Last month, they attended [ə'tend] the Clubs Fair.First, Linda and Leo learnt about the Rocket ['rɒkɪt] Club.“Our club will teach you how to build rockets. Then you can launch [lɔːn tʃ] them into the sky,” a boy said. “Watch!”He took a rocket and launched it. The rocket disappeared[dɪsə'pɪə] into the sky. Linda and Leo were very surprised.“Will it go all the way into space?” Linda asked.“Of course it won’t,” a girl from another club shouted. “Our club is better. Come and join the Solar['səʊlə] Power ['paʊə] Club.”“What do you do?” asked Leo.“We make wonderful machines[mə'ʃiːn]. They only use solar power. Look!”She took a toy car [tɒɪ]from the table and then used a remote[rɪ'məʊt] control [kən'trəʊl] to drive it all around the playground ['pleɪgraʊnd].“It uses power from the Sun,” said Linda. “That’s amazing[ə'mezɪŋ]!”Linda and Leo learnt about many clubs. After the fair, they felt very excited[ɪk'saɪtɪd].“I want to join [dʒɒɪn]all the clubs,” said Linda.“Me too!” said Leo.A trip [trɪp] to Lucky['lʌkɪ] Island['aɪlənd]Last Sunday, my friends and I went on an adventure [əd'ventʃə] with the Hiking ['haɪkɪŋ] Club. The night before, I was so excited that I could not sleep! I got up really early on Sunday morning. After breakfast, I packed [pæk] my lunch and left home quickly. I hurried to school ['hʌrɪ] and met other students and Mr. Li, our trip leader. When we were all there, we left for Lucky Island.The boat ride to Lucky Island was really exciting[ɪk'saɪtɪŋ]! We saw a lot of fish and colorful ['kʌlɚfəl] birds. When we got to Lucky Island, we went on a long walk and saw some pretty ['prɪtɪ] flowers. After the hike[haɪk], we were very hungry! We sat on the beach[biːtʃ] and ate our lunch. After that, we played games and took pictures. We really enjoyed ourselves. Finally it was time to go home. I cannot wait for my next adventure[əd'ventʃə] with Mr. Li and the Hiking Club!Summer camps[kæmp]Many children in the USA and Canada go to summer camps. Many summer camps take place in the countryside ['kʌntrɪsaɪd]. Young children usually join day camps. They go back home after spending a few hours at camp. Older children may spend a few nights away from home. They can make new friends and learn useful['juːsfʊl; -f(ə)l] skills[skɪl] at camp.There are also summer camps in China. Some summer camps are for international students[ɪntə'næʃ(ə)n(ə)l]. Many of them like to learn about Chinese culture['kʌltʃə].Unit 8Unusual [ʌn'juːʒʊəl] collections [kə'lekʃ(ə)n]Sam and Helen’s grandparents ['ɡrænd,pεərənt] collect [kə'lekt] almost everything. There are eight doorbells ['dɔːbel] on their front door!“This silver ['sɪlvə] doorbell is my favorite ['feivərit],” said Helen. She pushed [pʊʃ] it and soon Grandpa opened the door.“Come in, my dear grandson ['græn(d)sʌn] and granddaughter['grændɔːtə]!”he said.“Who started collecting doorbells, Grandpa?” asked Sam.“Your grandma,” he answered. “She loves doorbells.”“What do you like collecting, Grandpa?” asked Helen.“I like collecting newspapers.”They went inside [ɪn'saɪd] and saw newspapers everywhere.“Hello children!” called Grandma. “Let’s have some tea.”The children followed her into the living room and saw lots of toys[tɒɪ] there. There was hardly ['hɑːdlɪ] any space [speɪs] for the children to sit down.“Whose toys are these?” asked Helen.“They are ours,” said Grandma. “We both like collecting toys.”“But remember,”said Grandpa, “we have a lot of free time! You have your school work to do, so you shouldn’t spend too much time collecting things!”My collection[kə'lekʃ(ə)n]Harry has written about his collection of postcards['pəustka:d].I collect postcards. I started the collection two years ago.Now I have over 100 different postcards. Some show famous places of interest. Some show great works of art. My favorite postcard is from the UK. It has a picture of Big Ben on it.It is easy to get postcards. Friends send [send] them to each other for holidays or birthdays.I like collecting postcards. They are beautiful and teach me a lot about different places.Collecting stamps is educational [edʒʊ'keɪʃən(ə)l]!Yesterday was Show and Tell Day at Daniel’s school.Daniel was the first student to speak. He showed his classmates['klɑːsmeɪt] an old stamp[stæmp].“My father gave me this first stamp,” said Daniel. “It has a picture of an old Chinese stone bridge[stəʊn] [brɪdʒ] on it. This made me more interested in Chinese culture. Soon I started to look for more stamps with interesting pictures.”“Now I have over 100 stamps,” said Daniel. “I learnt a lot about our country and its great culture from the stamps! Collecting stamps is really educational!”“That was a great talk. Thank you, Daniel,” said the teacher.Postcards['pəustka:d].We can learn a lot about a place, its history ['hɪst(ə)rɪ] and culture['kʌltʃə] from a postcard and stamp[stæmp] on it.In 2005, some postcard collectors[kə'lektə]from different countries started a project['prɒdʒekt]. First, they created(create [kriː'eɪt])a website ['wɛbsaɪt] . Then people from all over the world could join and become members ['membə]. The members send each other postcards. As a result[rɪ'zʌlt], they make new friends and learn about the culture and history of different countries.下册Unit 1My grandmaMy grandma was a short woman with grey[greɪ] hair. She was always cheerful['tʃɪəfʊl; -f(ə)l]. She was a very good cook[kʊk]. Her dishes[dɪʃ] were probably['prɒbəblɪ] the best in the world! I will never forget the taste[teɪst], and the smell[smel] as well.Grandma took care of my family. She was really kind and patient['peɪʃ(ə)nt]. She died two years ago and I miss[mɪs] her very much.——BenAliceAlice is my best friend. She is a tall girl with glasses. She often tells me jokes [dʒəʊk] to make me laugh[lɑːf], but she never makes fun of others.Alice is a smart [smɑːt] girl. She is good at Maths[mæθs]. We often study and play table tennis ['tenɪs] together. I hope we will always remain[rɪ'meɪn] friends.JoyceMr. LiMr. Li is my Maths teacher. He is tall and thin[θɪn]. His classes are always full of fun. He uses lots of games in his teaching['tiːtʃɪŋ].Mr. Li is strict about[strɪkt] our studies, but he always encourages (encourage[ɪn'kʌrɪdʒ; en-])us and gives us support[sə'pɔːt]. He often says, "Never give up and you'll be successful[sək'sesfʊl; -f(ə)l]."--AmyMother's DayMums do a lot of hard work. They cook and clean for us. They also encourage [ɪn'kʌr ɪdʒ; en-]us and give us support[sə'pɔːt]. Mother's Day is the time for us to say "Thank you" to our mums.In most countries, people celebrate['selɪbreɪt] Mother's Day on the second Sunday in May every year. On this day, people like to buy flowers and make special ['speʃ(ə)l] Mother's Day cards [kɑːd] for their mums.Mother's Day is not only about gifts[gɪft]. We can help our mums do the housework. We can take them to the park or the cinema. Sometimes a simple hug[hʌg] or saying "I love you, Mum" is the perfect ['pɜːfɪkt] gift for our mums.Mother's Day is about love. If you love your mum, why not plan a special Mother’s Day for her?Unit 2France[frɑːns] is callingFrance is in Western ['west(ə)n] Europe['jʊrəp]. It is a country with many beautiful places.Paris['pærɪs] is the capital ['kæpɪt(ə)l] of France. Here you will find many famous places of interest such as the Eiffel Tower. You can go to the Louvre ['lu:və] Museum if you like art. The most famous street in Paris is the Champs-Elysees. This is the place to go if you want to visit some shops and department stores[dɪ'pɑːtm(ə)nt] [stɔː].France is very famous for its wine[waɪn]. There are many vineyards ['vɪnjɚd]in the centre of France and farmers grow grapes[greɪp]to make excellent ['eks(ə)l(ə)nt] French wine.The south of France lies on the coast [kəʊst], and it is famous for its wonderful ['wʌndəfʊl; -f(ə)l] beaches[biːtʃ]. A French town[taʊn] by the sea is the perfect place fora summer holiday, but if you prefer to [prɪ'fɜː] visit France in winter, you can try skiing ['skiːɪŋ] on the mountains in the French Alps [ælps].France has something for everyone, so why not visit France this year?Last July, I went to Beijing to visit uncle Zhang. He took me to many interesting places such as the Great Wall, the Summer Palace['pælɪs] and the Palace Museum [mjuː'zɪəm]. I learnt a lot about the Ming and the Qing dynasties(dynasty ['daɪnəsti]). We also visited the Main [meɪn] Stadium['steɪdɪəm] for the 2008 Olympics. We went shopping on Wangfujing Street. I had a wonderful time in Beijing and I plan to [plæn] visit it again during the Spring Festival[sprɪŋ]['festəvəl] next year.Hi Natee,My name is Mandy. I found your email address[ə'dres] on an e-friend website ['websait], and I'd like to be friends with you.I'm from Beijing, China, and I'm thirteen years old. My mum is a teacher, and my dad is a doctor. My grandparents live in Chengdu. They come to visit us every year, and they always bring[brɪŋ] me a lot of delicious[dɪ'lɪʃəs] Sichuan food!I live far away from my school, so I have to get up early in the morning. I like Maths [mæθs]and English very much, but I don't like Science['saɪəns]. I want to be a teacher in the future, so I'm studying hard at school.I'm interested in Thai culture ['kʌltʃə], and I love Thai food. I hope to visit Thailand one day.I hope we can be friends. Write to me soon and tell me about yourself.Best wishes,MandyThe Leaning (lean [liːn]) Tower['taʊə] of PisaThe Tower of Pisa is one of the most beautiful bell[bel] towers in Italy. It is not only beautiful, but also strange-it leans to one side. Today it is known as "the Leaning Tower of Pisa".The building of the tower began in 1173. It took nearly ['nɪəlɪ] 200 years to complete [kəm'pliːt]. In 1178, when the building got to the third floor, it started to lean. The builders tried to make the tower straight straight [streɪt] again when they built the upper ['ʌpə] floors[flɔː], but failed [feɪl].Over the years, the tower has continued to (continue [kən'tɪnjuː])lean further ['fɜːðə]. Experts ['ekspɜːt] have done a lot of studies (study) and tried to "rescue"['reskjuː] the tower. In 1990, it was closed to the public ['pʌblɪk] for safety ['seɪftɪ] reasons['riːz(ə)n]. After a lot of effort['efət], it reopened[riː'əʊp(ə)n]in 2001. Hopefully['həʊpfʊlɪ; -f(ə)lɪ] it will be safe for at least[liːst] the next 300 years.A blind[blaɪnd] man and his “eyes” in a fireOne day, John Dancer and Charlie arrived at a hotel [həʊ'tel; əʊ-].“Good evening, sir,” said the receptionist[rɪ'sepʃ(ə)nɪst]. “You’re welcome to stay [steɪ] , but I’m sorry that we don’t allow [ə'laʊ] pets [pet] here.”“Charlie isn’t a pet,” said John. “He’s my eyes. I’m blind and I can’t go anywhere by myself.”The receptionist apologized (apologize [ə'pɔlədʒaiz])and led (lead [liːd])John and Charlie to their room.John was very tired[taɪəd]. He soon fell asleep[ə'sliːp]. Some time later, Charliestarted barking[bɑːk]. John woke up ( wake up [weɪk] ) and smelt smoke. A fire! Smoke started to come in from under the door. With Charlie’s help, John put some wet[wet] towels ['taʊəl] along the bottom ['bɔtəm] of the door. Then he got down on the floor next to Charlie and waited.Soon he heard the sound of a fire engine['endʒɪn]. A fireman ['faɪəmən] arrived and got him out of the building, but the fireman did not want to take Charlie. John would not go without his “eyes”. Finally['faɪnəlɪ], the fireman got Charlie out of the building too and they were both safe.A friendly ['fren(d)lɪ] dolphin ['dɔlfin]Last month, I went to swim in the sea. I swam really far, past the rocks [rɔk] and out to sea.Then I saw something moving (move [muːv])towards me. It was huge and grey[greɪ] , with a large fin. It was a shark[ʃɑːk]! I began to swim back, but the beach[biːtʃ] was too far away. The shark started to swim around me.I was really scared [skεəd]. Suddenly another creature['kriːtʃə] appeared (appear [ə'pɪə]) next to me in the water. It was a dolphin! It pushed me away from the shark. I sat on its back as it swam towards the beach.Soon we were near the beach. The shark did not follow us. As soon as I stepped onto (step [step])the beach, the dolphin swam away. I will always remember how this friendly animal saved (save [seɪv]) my life.Trees in our daily['deɪlɪ] livesRebecca wants to know more about trees and how they help us. She is interviewing ['ɪntəvjuː] Dr. Jones about trees.Rebecca: How do trees help us, Dr. Jones?Dr. Jones: They help us in many ways. They keep the air cool and clean. They take in harmful ['hɑːmfʊl; -f(ə)l] gases (gas [gæs])from the air and produce[prə'djuːs] oxygen ['ɒksɪdʒ(ə)n]for us to breathe [briːð]. They’re major['meɪdʒə] fighters ['faɪtə] against air pollution [pə'luːʃ(ə)n].Rebecca: I know trees also make our lives more convenient [kən'viːnɪənt]. Many of the things in our daily lives come from trees. For example, paper and pencils.Dr. Jones:You are right, Rebecca. In fact, we get a lot more from trees. We get fruit and oil [ɔɪl] from them. Tea [tiː] also comes from the leaves of trees. Look around this room. A lot of the furniture['fɜːnɪtʃə] is made of wood [wʊd]. Trees are really important in our daily lives.Rebecca: I can’t imagine [ɪ'mædʒɪn] a world without trees.Dr. Jones: But we cut down[kʌt] millions of trees every year. We should stop doing this if we don’t want a world without trees.The Amazon['æməzn] rainforest ['ren'fɔrɪst]The Amazon rainforest in South America is the largest rainforest in the world. It covers ['kʌvə] five and a half million square[skweə] kilometers ['kɪlə,mitɚ] of the Amazon Basin ['beɪs(ə)n] and spreads [spred] across nine countries.The Amazon rainforest is very important because it is home to thousands of animals, birds and insects ['ɪnsekt] . However, people are destroying[dɪ'strɔɪ] the area by cutting down many of the trees. This is called “deforestation” [,di,fɔrɪ'steʃən]. Many living things ['lɪvɪŋ]lose [luːz] their homes because of deforestation[,di,fɔrɪ'steʃən]. As a result, the number of kinds of animals, birds, insects ['ɪnsekt] and trees in the world is decreasing (decrease [dɪ'kriːs]).We must do our best to protect [prə'tekt] the Amazon rainforest.Unit 5Water talksDora was in the bathroom['bɑːθruːm; -rʊm]. The tap[tæp] was on.“Turn that tap off,” said an angry voice,“You are wasting water(waste [weɪst]).”Dora looked around, but there was no one there.“Who are you?”“I’m a drop of water[drɒp]. Do you know where I come from?“From the tap?” asked Dora.“A few days ago, I was in a cloud,” said the drop of water. “Then I dropped into a river and ran into a reservoir['rezəvwɑ: (r)]. Then it was time for people to clean me.”“Clean you?” Dora asked.“Yes. I was dirty ['dɜːtɪ]. They cleaned me and added [æd] some chemicals['kemɪk(ə)l] to me. Then I travelled through the pipes[paɪp] under the streets and now I’m here.”Dora asked, “So is this the end of your journey ['dʒɜːnɪ] ?”“No. People will make me clean again. I’ll go into a river and then into the sea again.”“Again?”“Yes. My journey starts there. Remember not to waste[weɪst] or pollute me. I’m valuable ['væljʊb(ə)l].”Dora turned tap off and came out of the bathroom.Facts [fækt] about waterHere are some interesting facts about water:About 70% of the human body ['bɒdɪ] is water.Oceans ['əʊʃ(ə)n] cover['kʌvə] about 75% of the Earth, but ocean water is salty ['sɔlti].Therefore ['ðeəfɔː] most of the water in the world is not drinkable['drɪŋkəbl]. Groundwater ['graʊnd'wɔtɚ] may be drinkable, but it is not easy to find groundwater that is clean and safe to drink.If water drips[drɪp] from your tap every 10 seconds['sek(ə)nd], you will waste about 315 liters ['litər] of water a year—enough to fill [fɪl] two baths [bɑːθ]!Having a bath uses about twice[twaɪs] as much water as taking a shower ['ʃaʊə] . Having a shower instead of [ɪn'sted] a bath can save [seɪv] up to 400 liters ['litər] a week.Unit 6Electricity [ɪ'lɛk'trɪsəti] all aroundOne eveing, Daisy said, “I’m going to buy a packet of['pækɪt] sweets [swiːt]. Does anyone want anything?”Benny, Daisy’s brother, replied(reply [rɪ'plaɪ]), “Can you get me a packet of electricity?”“Yes, I can,” said Daisy. Then she went out.Benny laughed, “She can’t buy electricity in packets like 像sweets! She’ll look foolish['fuːlɪʃ].”Mum said, “You mustn’t say that, Benny!”“What do you know about electricity, Benny?” Dad asked.“Electricity gives us power['paʊə]. It flows[fləʊ] through wires [waɪə]. It’s like water, in a way,” said Benny.“You’re right! Electricity comes into our flat[flæt] through thin wires[waɪə]. These are connected to [kə'nekt] cables['keɪb(ə)l] under the street,” Dad added.“What are the cables connected to?” a sked Benny.“They are connected to a power station['steɪʃ(ə)n],” answered Dad.A moment later, Daisy came back.“May I have my packet of electricity?” Benny asked.“Here you are!” said Daisy.“But…these are batteries(battery ['bæt(ə)rɪ])!” said Benny.“Daisy’s right,” said Dad. “The chemicals['kemɪk(ə)l]inside batteries produce [prə'djuːs] electricity.”Mum said, “Who looks foolish now, Benny?”。

Trees in our daily lives
Rebecca wants to know more about trees and how they help us. She i s interviewing Dr Jones about trees.
Rebecca: How do trees help us, Dr Jones?
Dr Jones: They help us in many ways. They keep the air cool and cle an. They take in harmful gases from the air and produce oxygen for
us to breathe. They’re major fighters against air pollution. Rebecca: I know trees also make our lives more convenient. Many of the things in our daily lives come from trees. For example, paper a nd pencils.
Dr Jones: Yo u’re right, Rebecca. In fact, we get a lot more from trees . We get fruit and oil from them. Tea also comes from the leaves of tr ees. Look around this room. A lot of the furniture is made of wood. T rees are really important in our daily lives.
Rebecca: I can’t imagine a world without trees.
Dr Jones: But we cut down millions of trees every year. We should s top doing this if we don’t want a world without trees.。
