Writing an article Turn to page 7 and write an article about Xu Zheng using the notes on Xu and his essay. Xu Zheng: a boy fond of English Most people in the world speak English as a second language. And so does Xu Zheng. Yesterday I asked Xu Zheng about his ways to learn English. He said he learns by making up conversations and speaking to friends in English. When I asked about studying pronunciation, he said he spent much time on it, but he still found native speakers’ pronunciation difficult to learn. I said to him, “You are a computer student. Why are you so interested in English? “English popular in science. And it is popular around the world for computers, he told me. “I like writing notes, watching movies and listening to pop songs. But I like reading in English online most, added he. Xu Zheng is right. English can really help us understand many new things from other countries. Let’s learn from Xu Zheng. Let’s be fond of English, too.I Reading: How do we deal with our problems? As English is learned mostly through reading in China, we shall now turn to page 8 to learn to read the article entitled: How do we deal with our problem? Before reading, please go over the vocabulary list for reading on page 146. Get yourself familiarized with all the words and expressions to be found in the article. While reading try to divide the sentences into thought groups and underline all the expressions useful to you. While you are reading it for the second time, try to circle all the linking words and try translating the text into Chinese. How do we deal with our problem? Rich or poor, young or old, we all have problems. And unless we deal with our problems, we easily become unhappy. Worrying about our problems can affect how we do at school. It can also influence the way we behave with our families. So how do we deal with our problems? There are many ways. By learning to forget Most of us have probably been angry with our friends, parents or teachers. Perhaps they said something you didn't like, or you felt unfair. Sometimes, people can stay angry for years about a small problem. Time goes by, and good friendships may be lost. When we are angry, however, we are usually the ones affected. Perhaps we have seen young children playing together. Sometimes they have disagreements, and decide not to talk to each other. However, this usually does not last for long. This is an important lesson for us: we can solve a problem by learning to forget. By regarding problems as challenges Many students often complain about school. They might feel they have too much work to do sometimes, or think the rules are too strict. We must learn how to change these "problems" into "challenges". Education is an important part of our development. As young adults, it is our duty to try our best to deal with each challenge in our education with the help of our teachers. By thinking of something worse By comparing yourself to other people, you will find your problems are not so terrible. Think about Stephen Hawking, for example, a very clever scientist, who regards his many physical problems as unimportant. He can't walk or even speak, but he has become very famous and successful. We are probably quite healthy and smart. Let's not worry about problems. Let's face the challenges instead. After reading, copy the underlined expressions into your Phrase Book as home.
