致同学
亲爱的同学：
欢迎与我们一起开启初中阶段的英语学习！
在接下来的四年中，我们将通过教材，帮助你运用科学有效的方法学习英语，发展英语语言
能力，培育文化意识，提升思维品质，提高学习能力。
在这套教材中，你会遇到许多小伙伴。他们是就读于新星中学（New Star Middle School）的
王一鸣（Wang Yiming）、陆遥（Lu Yao）、林东（Lin Dong）、李百灵（Li Bailing），还有插班生英国
男孩哈利·特纳（Harry Turner），以及他在英国就读的好友莉萨·格林（Lisa Green）。他们会和你一
起，在学习英语的同时，探索新世界、思考大问题（Big Question），在真实情境中“讲（文化）小故
事，悟（人生）大道理，学百科新知识，用英语做事情”。
本套教材的每个单元以主题为引领，从大问题入手，设有五个小话题，分别对应听力、口语、
阅读、写作和项目探究五大板块。每个话题下包含符合初中生学习、生活和成长特点的类型丰富
的语篇，设计层层推进的学习活动，帮助你获得丰富的学习体验，并在学习过程中了解自己的学
习成效，最终对单元大问题有更加全面、深入的认识和理解。
在你学习教材的过程中，有一位智能机器人“胡博士”（Dr Hu）会帮助你掌握语言知识、技
能和学习策略。每个单元都设有“语音”（Sound）、“词汇”（Word study）、“语法”（Grammar in
use）、“青少年技能提示”（TEEN skill）等特色小栏目，以及旨在展示多元文化、拓展视野的“探索
发现”（Discovery）板块。“学习笔记”（My learning notes）用来帮助你积累所学、拓展常用的语言
表达。每当你顺利完成“更新任务清单”（Update my to-do list）之后，就可以在单元首页的“任务
清单”（To-do list）上对应条目前打钩。单元最后的“项目探究”（Project）是你展示学习成果的好
机会。你可以和同学合作，综合运用课内外学到的跨学科知识技能，学会在真实情境中用英语思
考并解决真实问题。
本册教材除了常规单元以外，还设有一个衔接单元（Starter）、两个文化角（Culture corner）和
一个文学角（Literature corner）。衔接单元帮助你顺利从小学学习过渡到初中学习。文化角不仅带
你更深入地了解中国文化，学会用英语讲中国故事，还带你领略多样的世界文化。我们将从亚洲
启程，逐一认识世界七大洲及其代表性文化，学会文明互鉴。文学角中，我们精选了广受青少年
喜爱的优秀文学作品片段，供你赏析。
希望这套教材给你带来学习英语的新体验、新收获，为你插上一双逐梦的翅膀，飞向世界，飞
向未来！

Where do you live? What is your school day like? What do you like
most about your school?
I’m from Espoo, Finland. My school day starts
at 9 a.m. and ends at 2 p.m. We have classes like
Maths, Dance and English.
In my school we do a lot of projects. Now we’re
studying Mexico. We talk about the differences
between Mexico and Finland in class. We also make a game about the
differences and then play it. In this way we study History, ICT and Art
all at the same time. I LOVE this way of learning!
There is a fifteen-minute break after every lesson. During the break,
I go outside and play. At noon, we take a lunch break. The breaks
connect us!

Tangyuan
Many families in southern
China eat tangyuan for
breakfast on the first day of
Chinese New Year. The name
of this food shows people’s
wish for the unity
① and
happiness of the whole family.
New Year food traditions
in different cultures
Twelve grapes
In Spain and Latin America, people eat 12
grapes at midnight to start the year off
right. According to tradition, for every grape
they eat, they’ll have a month of luck next
year. It’s a tasty and fun way to celebrate the
new year!
Toshikoshi soba ②
Japanese people usually eat
toshikoshi soba on New Year’s Eve ③.
They eat the long noodles and wish
for a long life. People try hard not to
break them, because they are afraid
that they might have bad luck in the
new year.

actively doing.
For example, the boys run, jump and kick like other
football players.
Action verbs help bring writing to life.

We are down by one goal.
This is Wang Yiming from our class. He
plays basketball well.

Topic: What’s your plan
for this winter?
You know what? I’m going to visit Beijing this
winter! I learned about Beijing at school, and
now it’s time to see it with my own eyes. I’m
going to take a plane there, and get around
the city by bus. There are so many historical
places to visit, such as the Palace Museum
and the Great Wall. I’m also going to do a bicycle tour of the hutongs.
I want to get to know the history of the city in different ways. It’s
going to be fun! Beijing, here I come!
My plan for this winter is to go on a trip with
my family. I love being close to nature. The
beautiful Zhangjiajie National Forest Park in
Hunan is at the top of my list. We are going to
hike there. After that, we plan to take a high-
speed train to Kunming and then a bus to Lijiang. We plan to climb
Yulong Snow Mountain there, and then fly back home. I can’t wait
to start my trip!

Food is the first need of the people.

Chinese dishes are
popular in New York, but
they are different from
those popular in China.
I really like the special food for
different traditional Chinese
festivals, such as mooncakes,
jiaozi and zongzi.
In China, my friends and
I can share many dishes
in one meal. It’s a great
way to try new things.
I’ve been to Beijing,
Chengdu, Guangzhou and

famous for different dishes.

What does dim sum mean in Chinese?
Dim sum, the Cantonese
pronunciation of dian xin
(snacks), is a Chinese meal of
small dishes. People usually
drink tea with them. In a
restaurant, dim sum can mean
“to order as one wishes”.
Because dim sum is small,
diners ① can order and try many
different dishes in one meal.
Who created jiaozi?
A legend says jiaozi (Chinese dumplings)
began with Zhang Zhongjing, a doctor
in the Eastern Han dynasty. One winter,
when he returned to his hometown, Zhang
noticed that many people had frostbite ② on
their ears. He wrapped meat and herbs in
dough ③ to make the shape of little ears, and
then sent them to the villagers. These tasty
dumplings warmed their bodies and helped
them recover from their frostbite.

The Magic Finger is a 1966 children’s story written
by the British writer Roald Dahl, one of the world’s most
popular children’s authors ①.
The Magic Finger is told by an eight-year-old girl, who is
growing up on a farm in the English countryside, next door
to the Gregg family who like hunting animals and birds. The
“Magic Finger” is her special ability. When she gets angry, she
puts her magic finger on you and that is something you really
don’t want to happen.
This is how the story begins ...
The farm next to ours is owned by Mr and Mrs Gregg. The Greggs have two
children, both of them boys. Their names are Philip and William. Sometimes I go over
to their farm to play with them.
I am a girl and I am eight years old.
Philip is also eight years old.
William is three years older. He is ten.
What?
Oh, all right, then.
He is eleven.
Last week, something very funny happened to the Gregg family. I am going to
tell you about it as best as I can.
Now the one thing that Mr Gregg and his two boys loved to do more than
anything else was to go hunting. Every Saturday morning they would take their guns
and go off into the woods to look for animals and birds to shoot.
Even Philip, who was only eight years old, had a gun of his own.
I can’t stand hunting. I just can’t stand it. It doesn’t seem right to me that men
and boys should kill animals just for the fun they get out of it. So I used to try to stop
Philip and William from doing it. Every time I went over to their farm I would do my
best to talk them out of it, but they only laughed at me.
I even said something about it once to Mr Gregg, but he just walked on past me
as if I hadn’t been there.
Then, one Saturday morning, I saw Philip and William coming out of the woods
with their father, and they were carrying a lovely young deer.
This made me so angry that I started shouting at them. The boys laughed and
made faces at me, and Mr Gregg told me to go home and mind my own business.
Well, that did it!

The Wind in the Willows is a children’s story by the
Scottish ① writer Kenneth Grahame and published ② in
1908.
It is a story about a group of animal friends living
along the banks ③ of a river in England—Mole ④, Rat ⑤,
Toad ⑥, and Badger ⑦.
“Toad’s car adventure” is one of the most loved
chapters in the book.
Toad falls in love with cars and that gets him into a
lot of trouble. He goes to jail ⑧ for stealing a car. He finally
escapes ⑨ by dressing himself as a woman. What will
happen next?
Toad is walking along the road. He sees something coming towards him. It's a car!
Toad:
This is more good luck! I will make the drivers stop the car.
Perhaps I will end up driving up to Toad Hall.
He steps into the road to wave at the car, but suddenly he feels very afraid. His heart is
beating so fast that he falls down. This car is the same car that he has stolen! And the
people in the car are the same people he has met before!
The car stops in front of him. The men do not recognise him. They gently lift Toad into the
car. Toad opens his eyes and looks around him.
One man (A):
There, she is awake now. The fresh air is good for her. How do
you feel now, madam?
Toad:
Thank you very much, sir. I am feeling a little better.
The other man (B):
Just sit still, and don’t try to talk. We’ll be at the village soon.
Toad:
I won’t talk. I just had an idea. May I sit in the front seat of your
car? There is more fresh air in the front. I might feel better
then.
The man (A):
What a smart woman! Of course, you can!

So the man helps Toad to sit in the front seat. Toad feels the cool and fresh air. He looks at
the man who is driving. Suddenly Toad has an even better idea. He really wants to drive
that car again!
Toad:
Please, sir, may I try to drive the car? I’ve been watching you,
and I think I could do it. It looks very easy. I would love to tell
my friends that I had driven a real car!
The gentlemen laugh.
The man (A):
I like this idea! We’ll let her try driving. I’m sure she will be
careful!
So they stop the car and let Toad sit in the driver’s seat. Toad begins to drive the car slowly
down the road. The men are amazed.
Toad drives a little faster, and then even faster. Suddenly he is driving very fast.
The man (B):
Be careful, madam!
This annoys ① Toad. He feels very powerful.
Toad:
I am not an old woman! I am the Toad, the strong, powerful
Toad! Sit still, and I will show you how good a driver I am!
Suddenly the men realise the truth.
The man (A):
He is the toad who stole our car!
The man (B):
Grab ② him! Take him back to jail! He is a crazy, dangerous
animal!

Ways to Come to School is selected from Off by Heart—Poems for You to
Remember by the British poet Roger Stevens. With creative imagination and
humour, it describes different ways students and teachers go to school. Some of
them may really make you laugh.
Ways to Come to School
George comes to school in a sports car
Mel comes to school on the bus
Will comes to school on his scooter ①
(So does Arthur and Sandy and Gus)
Billy comes to school on a snail ②
That’s why he’s always late
Miss Moss comes to school in the Tardis ③
She says Doctor Who’s her best mate ④
Mr Walton arrives on a dragon
It’s his very special pet
But I’m always the first to arrive at school
In my supersonic jet ⑤
(Although usually I walk ...)

Notes
Starter
1. (Page 3) I can answer all your questions. Try me.
译文：我可以回答你所有的问题。来试试看吧。
注释：当一个人对自己的某项能力或技能极具信心时，会说“Try me.”来向别
人挑战或展示自己的实力。这种情况下，“Try me.”表示他/ 她敢接受任何考验，
并有自信可以成功。
2. (Page 3) Big E, little e, she sells seashells to me!
译文：大写E，小写e，她把海贝壳卖给我！
注释：此处she 和me 中的e 发字母e 的长音（如he），sells 和seashells 中的
e 发短音（如egg）。
3. (Page 4) This is your secret to English learning, isn’t it?
译文：这就是你学英语的秘诀，对吗？
注释：这句话最后的isn’t it 是附加疑问句，用以向对方验证自己的陈述或
者判断。关于附加疑问句的形式、意义和用法，详见本册第六单元的语法附录
（pp.131–132）。
4. (Page 6) Hi, pals!
译文：伙伴们好啊！
注释：这通常是用于较为亲密的人（close friends, classmates or teammates）
之间的打招呼用语，也用于好友间群发邮件开头的问候。类似的表达还有“Hey
friends!”“ Hello folks!”“Dear all,”等。
Unit 1
1. (Page 16) We eat our work.
译文：我们吃掉自己的作品。
注释：work 除了用作动词，表示“做体力（或脑力）工作；劳动；干活”的意
思之外，还可以用作名词，表示“工作成果；产品；作品”。此句中的work 是名
词，意为“作品”。
上海教育出版社
上海教育出版社
108
2. (Page 18) There is a fifteen-minute break after every lesson.
译文：每节课后都有15 分钟的课间休息。
注释：句中的fifteen-minute 是一个复合修饰语，用作定语，修饰名词break，
不论前面的数字是否大于1，minute 都要用单数。类似的复合修饰语还有：
10-year-old，20-page 等。如：
My 10-year-old/ten-year-old sister loves science. 我10 岁的妹妹喜爱科学。
This 20-page/twenty-page book is my favourite. 这本20 页的书是我的最爱。
3. (Page 18) The breaks connect us!
译文：正是这些课间休息，把我们凝聚在了一起！
注释：break 在英文中，除了作名词，意为“课间休息；间歇；休息”外，还可
以作动词，意为“终止，断绝（关系、联系）”。作动词解释时，是connect（连接；
把……联系起来）的反义词。这句话把break 和connect 放在一起，起到了对比
的修辞效果。
Unit 2
1. (Page 28) Are you the only child in your family?
译文：你在家里是独生子女吗？
注释：the only child in the family 指家中的独生子女。
2. (Page 30) Grandma is teaching the seven-year-old me how to play the piano.
译文：奶奶正在教七岁的我如何弹钢琴。
注释：句中seven-year-old 为修饰语，a seven-year-old girl=a girl of seven，此
处百灵指的是照片中七岁的自己。
3. (Page 31) You look a lot like her.
译文：你长得和她很像。
注释：look like somebody 意为“长得像某人”，a lot 表示程度。
4. (Page 38) In China, the number “nine” stands for a long life.
译文：在中国，数字“9”代表长寿。
上海教育出版社
上海教育出版社
109
注释：stand for 意为“是……意思；代表”；数字“9”的中文发音同“久”，代
表长长久久。
Unit 3
1. (Page 46) I made it!
译文：我做成了！
注释：句中的it 指代the dish (Rainbow Beef)。
“I made it!”意为“我做成了这
道菜！”。此句也是一句习语，意为“我成功了”，一语双关。
2. (Page 46) She was a little surprised to see the dish, ...
译文：她看到这盘菜的时候有点惊讶，……
注释：句中的to see the dish 作为形容词surprised 的补语，补充说明妈妈感
到惊讶的原因。
Unit 4
1. (Page 56) 4×50m relay
译文：4×50 米接力
注释：读作four by fifty metres relay 或four by fifty relay。
2. (Page 59) It kind of hurts.
译文：（我觉得）有点疼。
注释：短语kind of 一般在口语中使用，后面可以接名词、形容词或动词，表
示“稍微；有几分；有点儿”。hurt 在这里作动词，表示“感到疼痛”。hurt 也可以
作形容词，如get hurt（受伤）。
3. (Page 60) What are you waiting for?
译文：你还在等什么呢？
注释：常用在口语中，建议别人赶快行动起来。
4. (Page 60) The clean kung fu moves are powerful.
译文：干净利落的功夫动作很有力量。
上海教育出版社
上海教育出版社
110
注释：句中的clean 意为“动作熟练而准确的；干净利落的”，修饰kung fu
moves。move 在句中作名词，意为“动作”。
Unit 5
1. (Page 70) Do pigs make good mothers?
译文：猪能成为好妈妈吗？
注释：这里的make 意为“成为；适合”，后面可以跟somebody 或something，
如：The room will make a nice office. 这个房间适合做办公室。需注意的是，该句
主语是pigs，后面跟的是good mothers，这种语言现象较为普遍，是一种简洁的
表达方式，无需刻意说明性别。
2. (Page 72) Do not pet an animal when it is sleeping, eating or caring for its
young.
译文：当动物在睡觉、进食或者照顾幼崽的时候，不要去抚摸它。
注释：这里有两点需要注意。首先，这是一则安全提示，告知我们在这三种
情况下不要随意去抚摸动物，以免激怒它们而受到攻击。其次，pet 在这里作动
词，意为“抚摸”（pet 也常作名词，意为“宠物”）；young 在这里作名词，意为
“幼崽”（young 也常作形容词，意为“幼小的；年轻的”）。词性转换现象在本单元
中多次出现，如74 页上的work，milk，clean 等。
Unit 6
1. (Page 84) Come and feel the history in Beijing. View details.
译文：来北京感受历史吧。查看详情。
注释：为吸引游客，旅游网站的页面通常会用简单、直观的表达介绍景点最
具吸引力的特征。如果游客感兴趣，则可以点击“查看详情”，了解更多信息。
2. (Page 86) Yao, could you please look at the ways of going to Chengdu?
译文：遥，你能查一查去成都的（交通）方式吗？
注释：“Could you please ...?”在英语口语中通常用于表达较为委婉和礼貌的
请求，和“Would you please ...?”意思接近。

Basic sentence patterns: SV, SVC & SVO
基本句型：主谓、主动补
①和主谓宾
① 主动补，即主（系）表句型。
1 S and V in a sentence 句子中的主语和（谓语）动词
• An English sentence usually has a Subject (S) and a Verb (V).
英语句子一般含有一个主语（S）和一个（谓语）动词（V）。
• S is the main noun or pronoun in a sentence. It tells us who or what the sentence is
about. It performs the action of the V.
主语是句中的主要名词或者代词，是一个句子所要描述的人或事物，是执行句
子的行为或动作的主体。
e.g. Alex, she, it, the Earth, China, my friend, ...
• V is the main verb in a sentence. Most main verbs are action verbs. They tell us
what someone or something (S) does, or what happens to them.
（谓语）动词是句子中的主要动词。大多数主要动词都是行为动词，是关于主语
发出的动作或发生在主语身上的动作。
e.g. drink, dance, think, walk, ...
• Some main verbs are linking verbs. A linking verb links the S (subject) and its state
of being or qualities.
句子中的主要动词有时也由系动词充当。系动词是联系主语和主语的状态或特

质的一类动词。
e.g. am/is/are, look, get, feel, ...
2 SV sentence pattern 主谓结构的句型
SV sentence = S (subject) + V (verb)
“主语做什么，什么动作发生在主语身上”
e.g.
S
V
The bus
stops.
The school gate
opens.
Yiming
smiles.
It
rains.
3 C in a sentence 句子中的补语
C is the complement of the S (subject) in a sentence. It usually gives information
about the subject, such as qualities, state of being or identity. Most complements are
nouns, noun phrases or adjectives.
句子中主语的补语一般会告诉我们有关主语的信息，如特质、状态或身份等。补
语往往由名词、名词性短语或形容词充当。
e.g. a cute boy, my favourite song; angry, busy, careful, ...
4 SVC sentence pattern 主动补结构的句型
SVC sentence = S (subject) + V (linking verb) + C (complement)
“主语是什么，怎么样”
e.g.
S
V
C
My favourite colour
is

The dress
looks

5 O in a sentence 句子中的宾语
• Some verbs take an Object (O).
一些动词后可以接宾语。
• O is usually a noun, a pronoun or a noun phrase. It receives the action of the verb.
宾语一般由名词、代词或名词短语充当，是动作的接受者。

She is a personal pronoun. It replaces a female person (3rd person singular). He is
used for a male person (3rd person singular). It is used for things and for animals
(unless we wish to stress the gender).
she 是一个人称代词，用于指代女性（第三人称单数）。he 用于指代男性（第三人
称单数）。it 用于指代事物和动物（在我们无需强调性别的时候）。
