夜雨聆风Zhou Jinrui and Harry are two middle school students in Hangzhou. They didn't have much money with them. But they had dreamt of visiting Beijing for a long time. So they went to Beijing from Hangzhou by bike last summer holiday. They spent nearly one month on the bike travelling. The journey was hard, but they felt happy.
They went through many cities and villages during the travelling. They ate the food they brought or had cheap meals. When they were tired at night, they took out their map to find small and cheap hotels or farmers' houses to stay in. They also took some medicine with them. When they had a cold, they didn't need to go to hospital. When it was rainy, they stopped for a while and then went on with their travelling.
At the end of August, they got to Beijing successfully. They visited a lot of places of interest in Beijing, such as the Great Wall, the Summer Palace and Tian'anmen Square.
They had a fun time in Beijing for ten days. At last, they had to return to Hangzhou by train because the new term began in September.
传统教学往往是先确定语法项目，再寻找例句进行练习；而这里更强调先让学生进入一个具体的表达情境，在真实或接近真实的语言使用中接触表达模式，然后再帮助他们发现其中反复出现的规律。语法不再是学生必须首先掌握的抽象知识，而是他们在语言使用中逐渐发现并概括出来的规律。
