Kevin, a British exchange student, is asking Millie for suggestions on his
travel plan. Work in pairs and give your own ideas about it. Use the conversation
below as a model.
Kevin: I’m planning to travel around China. Where shall I visit first, Millie?
Millie: Since you’re in Beijing now, why don’t you start from here?
Tian’anmen Square, the Palace Museum and the Great Wall are
wonderful places to go.
Kevin: Good idea. What special things can I see in Beijing?
Millie: Chinese opera is a kind of traditional Chinese art, and Beijing opera
is one of the most popular. You can go and enjoy it.
Kevin: OK. Thank you for your suggestions.
Millie: You’re welcome.

A
Two cities in China
Millie wants to help the exchange students learn more about different cities
in China. She has found two articles written by two students. Here are the articles.
Welcome to Beijing!
I
am Wei Ke from Beijing, the
capital of China.
In the middle of the ancient city of
Beijing is the Palace Museum, also
called the Forbidden City. The
emperors of the Ming and Qing
dynasties used to live there. It was
turned into a museum in 1925. With wonderful buildings and art
treasures inside, it is well worth a visit.
Next to the Palace Museum is Tian’anmen Square, one of the biggest
city squares in the world. Many tourists like to gather there early in
the morning to watch the raising of the national flag.
In the north-west of Beijing is the
Summer Palace, a large Chinese
garden set in a natural landscape.
It was once a nice place for the
emperors to spend the summer.
Another famous attraction is the Great Wall. It runs for over 6,000
kilometres across northern China, with watchtowers every few
hundred metres. The wall was first built more than 2,000 years
ago. It is one of the wonders of the world.
Come and visit my city!

All about Guilin
H
ello. My name is Mei Fang.
My home is in Guilin.
“East or west, Guilin landscape is
best.” Guilin is really a beautiful city
in southern China. It lies on the two
sides of the Lijiang River. All around
the city, mountains stand in different
shapes. Many visitors come and
visit Guilin because of its fantastic
landscape.
In the north-west of the city is the Reed
Flute Cave. In this underground cave, it is
amazing that there are so many rocks in
unusual shapes—some hang down, and
others point upwards. The cave is praised
as the “Art Palace of Nature”.
Tourists like to take a boat trip along the Lijiang River. It is great
fun. It is also popular to hire a bicycle and ride around the
countryside.
I hope you can visit my city one day!

Uses of it
A
Using it as a pronoun
We use it for animals and lifeless things.
Look at the panda. It is so small.
Another famous attraction is the Great Wall. It runs for over 6,000 kilometres
across northern China.
We use it for a young child when we do not know whether it is a girl or
a boy.
My aunt will have a baby soon. She hopes it will be a girl.
Look at that cute baby over there! It’s a boy, isn’t it?
We use it for an unknown person.
—Who was calling you on the phone just now?
—It was my cousin.
We use it for an action, a situation or an idea mentioned in a previous
statement.
Riding around the countryside is popular in Guilin, isn’t it?
Tourists like to take a boat trip along the Lijiang River. It is great fun.
The exchange students visited the Summer Palace yesterday. Kevin is writing
about it. Read the passage below and find out what each it refers to. Write your
answers in the blanks.
Yesterday we visited the Summer Palace and spent about
three hours in it. The palace is a Chinese garden and
mainly includes a hill and a lake. The lake is very big—it
takes up three quarters of the area. It was frozen, so we
could not row a boat there. It was really a pity. Across
the lake is a 17-hole bridge. There are many stone lions
on either side of it. The lions are all different from each
other. Isn’t it amazing? While I was walking along the
bridge, my mobile phone rang. It was my mum. I told
her that the Summer Palace was well worth visiting.

Unit 1

Understanding body language
Body language, as a form of communication, is different from culture to
culture. For example, nodding one’s head means “agreement” and shaking
one’s head means “disagreement” in most countries, but in some countries
of South Asia, it is just the opposite.
Look at the gesture below. What does it mean? In different places, it means
different things.
In most cultures, it means “OK”; in Russia, Brazil and Turkey, it is
an insult; in France and Belgium, it means “zero” or “worthless”;
in Japan, it means “money”.
Here are the meanings of some common kinds of body language in the West:
Sometimes the words a person uses do not match his or her body language.
When this happens, it is often more important to look at their body language.
Match the pictures with the meanings. Write the correct letter in each box.
a Glad to see you. b I can do it! c I did something wrong.
Body language
Possible meaning
head held down
shy, ashamed
head raised
confident
looking down
dishonest
looking away
bored, uninterested
looking in the eyes
friendly, interested, honest
crossed arms
not open, unfriendly, angry
open arms
open, friendly
hands on the sides
impatient, angry

The first man to walk on the Moon
Neil Armstrong (1930–2012) was the first man to walk on the Moon.
Simon is now reading an article about the astronaut and his space travel. Here
is the article.
NEIL ARMSTRONG
Neil Armstrong was born on 5 August 1930
in Ohio, the USA. He became interested in
flying when he took his first flight at the age
of six. He received his student pilot’s licence
when he was 16.
Armstrong joined the navy in 1949 and served as a pilot for
three years. In 1955, he became a test pilot. He flew over 1,100
hours and tested all types of aircraft.
In 1962, he was chosen to become an astronaut. In 1966, he
went into space as command pilot of Gemini 8. He and David
Scott managed to join two spacecraft together for the first time
in space. However, on their way back to the Earth, the spacecraft
began spinning out of control. Armstrong received the order to
cut the flight short. He successfully brought the spacecraft down
into the western Pacific Ocean.

On 20 July 1969, Armstrong became the first man to walk on
the Moon. Together with Buzz Aldrin, he landed the spacecraft
Apollo 11 on the Moon. He said the famous words “one small
step for (a) man, one giant leap for mankind” as he stepped out
onto the Moon’s surface.
Armstrong and Aldrin walked on the Moon for about two and a
half hours. They collected Moon rocks to take back to the Earth
for further research. When Apollo 11 returned, the whole world
was waiting to greet them. They were heroes.
Because of his excellent service, Neil Armstrong was presented
with the Medal of Freedom, the highest award that a US citizen
can receive. He was the pride of the whole world.

Unit 2
Formal and informal language
When we speak or write, we can use formal or informal language. We use
formal language with our teachers or unfamiliar people. However, when we
speak or write to our friends, we use informal language.
Greetings such as Hi and Hello are informal language. Other greetings like
Dear Mr/Mrs/Ms ..., Ladies and gentlemen are formal language.
Endings such as Lots of love and Yours can be used only in informal letters
or emails.
Idioms such as have a big mouth and in the soup are informal language.
Abbreviations such as esp. and Dec. are often used in informal writing.
Contractions such as we’ll, he’d and can’t are often used in informal
writing or when we talk to our friends.
Kitty is writing to J. K. Rowling, the British writer, to tell her something about
Harry Potter. Help Kitty check the language she is using and improve it if necessary.
Hi!
I think you’ll laugh when you read this letter. Believe it or not,
there’s a real Harry Potter in the world. It’s said that it’s a lot of
trouble being Harry Potter, esp. when you’re a 78-yr-old man and
you happen to share the name of a world-famous boy with magic
powers.
The real Harry Potter often gets phone calls from both children and
TV stations. “The kids want to know if I’m Harry Potter,” he says
with a smile. “I tell them I’ve been Harry Potter for nearly 80 years!”
However, the real Harry Potter says the Harry Potter series isn’t his
cup of tea, and he doesn’t care if he’s famous or not.
Love,
Kitty

A display of cultures around the world
The Class 1, Grade 9 students have made a wall display to show different cultures
around the world. They made information sheets about the culture of each
country. Then they put the sheets around a world map on the wall and gave
group presentations. Your class wants to do the same thing.
A
Planning and preparing
1
Put a world map on the display wall in the classroom. The whole class should
work together to draw the map, or you can buy one.
2
Work in groups of four. Each group must make an information sheet about a
different country.
3
Think about what you can include in the information sheet to show the
culture of the country you have chosen. Exchange ideas with your group
members and write them down on a piece of paper.
4
Find some information about the things your group would like to include in
the information sheet. Look for information on the Internet or in the library.
5
If you need help, the following questions may give you some ideas.
•
What is the capital city of the country?
•
What does the country’s national flag look like?
•
What languages are spoken in the country?
•
What is the country famous for?
•
What kind of crops does the country grow?
•
What are the customs and beliefs in the country?
•
Are there any famous people in the history of the country?
•
What are the people famous for? What have they achieved?
35
B
Tips for making your wall display
How to make the map
•
If you draw the map, just draw the outline of the continents and some major
countries with a pencil first so that it is easy to make corrections later on. Do
not draw anything too detailed.
•
Stick or draw flags of the countries on the map.
•
Draw a compass at the bottom of your map and label the directions.
How to make the information sheet
•
Read through your ideas and information carefully.
•
Make a plan before you start writing—the information sheet must be large
enough for the whole class to see during your presentation.
•
After writing the draft, check for spelling mistakes, especially the names of the
countries, places and famous people.
•
Stick the pictures of the places and people you are going to talk about on your
information sheet.
•
Draw graphs and charts to show interesting facts and to make comparisons.
C
Tips for your presentation
•
The groups take turns to present their work.
•
Use the map to show where the countries are.
•
After the presentation, display all the information sheets on the wall.

How could robots help us?
Do you know how robots could help us? Match each phrase with the correct
picture.
Amy is asking Daniel how robots could help us in our daily lives. Work in
pairs and talk about your ideas. Use the conversation below as a model.
Amy:
Would robots have brains in the future, Daniel?
Daniel:
Yes, they would. So they could do whatever they’re asked to.
Amy:
That sounds useful. How could robots help us?
Daniel:
They could do dangerous jobs like putting out fires or working on
high buildings.
Amy:
That’s great! Could robots help you and me in any way?
Daniel:
Of course. They could help us with our homework.
Amy:
Wow! I’d like to have one!

A
Living with a robot
Daniel is very interested in robots. He found an interesting story in this
month’s Robot magazine. Here is the story.
The home robot
Mr Jiang is a manager of a big company in Sunshine Town. He is
always too busy to have any time to relax. “I have to buy a robot
so that I can have more free time,” Mr Jiang thought. So he ordered
one from a robot shop.
The robot made Mr Jiang’s life much easier. When he got up in
the morning, breakfast was made, his business suit was smoothly
ironed, and his lunch box was already prepared. That made him
very happy.
While Mr Jiang was at work, the robot would do all the housework.
It would go shopping at the supermarket as well.
When Mr Jiang returned home from work,
his flat would look as good as new, and a
delicious dinner would be ready for him.
After dinner, the robot would tidy up. That
allowed Mr Jiang to do whatever he liked.
He would watch TV or do some reading.

Unit 3

It seemed that in general the robot satisfied Mr Jiang’s needs.
After a few comfortable weeks, however, things started to go
wrong. The robot caught a virus and no longer worked properly.
It began to make stupid mistakes. Sometimes it woke Mr Jiang
up at four o’clock in the morning. When Mr Jiang got home, he
would find his flat in a complete mess: food was laid on the bed;
milk was stored in the rubbish bin; coins, bills and his private
papers were spread all over the floor. Moreover, the robot moved
too fast on its wheels and often knocked things over. Mr Jiang
did not know what to do with it.
In the end, Mr Jiang decided to return the robot to the robot
shop. Robots can help people a lot, but they can also be too
much trouble!

Dear Mum,
I am going on a business trip to Shenzhen tomorrow. I have asked my robot
to look after you while I am away.
You have a serious heart problem and have to take medicine every day.
However, you have a poor memory and often forget when you should take your
pills. My robot will remind you to take them at the right time. If you want to
go out, my robot will help you find your coat—you are always unsure where
you could find your clothes. My robot will go to the supermarket to buy some
fruit and vegetables for you, as you often cannot decide which you should
choose at the supermarket. You often feel lonely because you do not know
who you can talk to, and my robot will try to do something to make you
happy.
Take care and I will see you soon!
Yours,
Jiang Shan

British English and American English
There are some differences between British English and American English.
47
There are also some differences in pronunciation. One of the most obvious is
that, in British English, the consonant /r/ is pronounced only before a vowel,
e.g. classroom. In other cases, the /r/ is silent, e.g. car. In American English,
the /r/ is always pronounced.
TIP
You can consult
a dictionary to
find out more
about the
differences.

Dear Sir/Madam,
Robot model number HUGO123BB
Two weeks ago, I bought a robot from your shop.

have to change them often. I think they should last for at least (1) ____________.
I think a robot should work (2) __________________, and I want my robot
(3) _____________________________. However, this robot is very lazy. I need
to give it instructions all the time. Otherwise, I need to do everything myself.
The quality of this robot is not up to standard either. A good robot should only
need checking (4) __________________. My robot has already stopped working
completely. I do not know what is wrong with it.
I regret having bought a robot like this. I would like to get my money back.
Yours faithfully,
Chen Dan

Daniel:
Yes. And we might need sleeping bags too.
Amy:
I agree. Also, there’s no fruit or vegetables, so we
would have to eat dried food.
Daniel:
Well ... that sounds quite boring! But there would
be no pollution on Mars.

A
Life on another planet
Daniel wants to find out more about life in space in the future. He has
found the following article by a famous scientist who thinks humans could live
on Mars by the next century.
Moving to Mars
Some people believe that humans could live on the planet
Mars by the year 2100. Our own planet, the Earth, is
becoming more and more crowded and polluted because of the
rapid increase in population. It is hoped that people could start
all over again and build a better world on Mars. Here is what life
there could be like.
At present, our spacecraft are too slow to carry large numbers
of passengers to Mars—it would take months. With the
development of technology, by the year 2100, the journey
might only take about 20 minutes in spacecraft that travel at
the speed of light! However, the spacecraft would travel so
fast that the journey to Mars might be quite uncomfortable.
Many people would feel ill.
Humans cannot survive without water, oxygen or food. So far,
nobody knows whether there would be enough water or
oxygen on Mars for people there. Moreover, scientists are not
sure whether plants could grow on Mars. Food would most
probably be in the form of pills and would not be so tasty.
5
10
15
Unit 4
53
Gravity could be another problem. The gravity on Mars is only about
three-eighths of that on the Earth. People would have to wear boots
that are specially designed for walking on
Mars.
Compared with life on the Earth, life on Mars
would be better in some ways. People would
have more space. They might live in houses
with huge comfortable rooms. Also, robots
would do most of their work so that they
could have more time to relax.
There would probably be no schools on Mars. Every student would
have a computer at home connected to an interplanetary network.
They would study at online schools with “e-teachers”.
Life on Mars would be interesting as well as challenging.

1 Mars is a planet that has an environment similar to that of the Earth.
2 Astronauts who wear space suits and helmets might stay on Mars for
hours.
3 It is difficult to breathe on a planet that has much thinner air than that
on the Earth.
4 On Mars there might be people who carry air tanks on their backs.
Simon is interested in stories about aliens. He even writes to aliens. Replace
each of the underlined parts in his letter with another expression.
Dear aliens,
Humans are thinking about moving to another planet
(1) because the pollution on the Earth is very serious. Many people
are in no doubt (2) that life on Mars would be very interesting, but I am
not sure. We could not play football on Mars (3) because of the low
gravity. Life would be boring for me (4) if I could not play football. Maybe
this problem could be solved by building special indoor playgrounds
(5) which have the same football fields as those on the Earth.
By the way, would strangers be welcome? I hope to hear from you soon.

a model.
Daniel:
Would you like to live on Mars, Sandy?
Sandy:
I’m not sure if it’s worth the risk. It worries me.
Daniel:
Why? It would be quite safe. After all, humans have already been
to the Moon.
Sandy:
Maybe you’re right, but we might get ill from living there.
Daniel:
I don’t think so, Sandy. It’s just a different kind of life. It would
be great to live on another planet.
Sandy:
What about all your friends here on the Earth if you go to Mars?
Daniel:
I want you all to come too.

Self-assessment
To do self-assessment means to think about your studies in order to find out
your strengths and weaknesses. This can help you make a plan to improve
the way you study.
Kitty is completing a self-assessment form to find out how she is doing with
her English study. Read her results in the table below.
After doing the self-assessment, Kitty is making a plan for studying English.
Read her plan. Do you think she has some good ideas?
I often speak English well in class, but I still need to practise more.
I need to work harder to learn new words and grammar rules. I plan to
copy the new words in my notebook and read them every morning. I
plan to remember five new words every day. Grammar rules are difficult,
so I will keep an English diary and try to use the new grammar rules I
have learnt. I plan to watch English TV programmes every weekend in
order to improve my listening skills.
Now complete the self-assessment form in Part A yourself. Then write
your own plan for studying English.
