Unit 1 Art-Reading Task
Suppose you were the president of a high school council and you received the letter below. It
is
from a group of students who would like to
make their school
more attractive. Read the
letter and then use the outline on the next page to make notes for a report about the letter to
the school council.

Class 2A

Seaforth High School

Ramsay Rd

Seaforth

Mrs L Kroll

President, Seaforth High School Council

PO Box 235, Seaforth

12 May

Dear Mrs Kroll,

Lately our class has become worried about the environment at the back of the school, and we
would like to do something to make it more attractive. We have done some research and have
come up with a plan. With the help of our parents, we can do most of the work ourselves, but
we will need a small amount of money for equipment, plants-and paint. I am writing to ask
the council for permission to do this work and to ask if the school council could donate $$500
towards our project.

We would like to turn the empty land at the back of the school into a nature garden. We
would plant trees and grasses, make paths through the garden and dig a small pond. We think
this would provide a peaceful place for students and teachers to walk in. It would also attract
birds, insects and small animals which students could then study in science classes. We would
also like to paint the back wall of the school that faces the new garden. Some of our art classes
could then paint a huge picture on it. It might be possible to paint over the wall each year so
the next classes can make a new picture.

Lastly, we would like to paint all the rubbish bins. At the moment they look old and the paint
is coming off. If we paint them in bright, attractive colours, students might be more likely to
use them. We think our plan would greatly improve the back of the school and everyone in
the school

would benefit. We have already asked our parents and they have promised to donate one
weekend of their time to help us complete the project.

We hope you will give us permission for this worthwhile project and will be able to donate the
$$500 we need. When we have finished the work, we hope the council will join us in a
celebration morning tea so that the whole school can thank you.

Yours sincerely,

Jo Ryan (Class president)
Unit 2 Poems- Reading Task


A spring morning


A
I awake light-hearted this morning of spring, Everywhere round me the singing of
birds-But now I remember the night, the storm, And I wonder how many blossoms were
broken.


(by Meng Haoran )


B
Hungrily the cat consumes the fish;


Hungrily I close my eyes and make a wish;


Hungrily the boy runs to the road's end;


Hungrily the driver takes the next bend.


Hungrily the young man loves life at sea;


Hungrily the beautiful girl looks at me;


Hungrily the seal dives down into the deep;


Hungrily I fall into bed and sleep.


C
If you were the only girl in the world


and I were the only boy!


Nothing else would matter in the world today


we could go on loving in the same old way!


A garden of Eden just made for two


with nothing to mar our joy


I would say such wonderful things to you


there would be such wonderful things to do


If you were the only girl in the world


and I were the only boy!


(by Clifford Grey)


D
Sunshine


Lovely, cheerful


Warming, welcoming, calming


I sing with you


Brightness

E
First autumn morning:

The mirror I stare into


Shows my father's face.

Unit 3 A healthy life
SUCCESSFUL ALDS PROGRAMME IN YUNNAN


An AIDS awareness programme started by the Chinese Red Cross in Yunnan province six

years ago has
proved so successful that it is now running in several other provinces, including Xinjiang, Guangxi, Hainan,
Fujian and Jilin.


As well as providing care and support for AIDS sufferers, the programme trains young people

to teach
others about HIV/AIDS. These volunteers hold two-day classes to teach people of similar age and background
about the virus and its links to drug use and sexual practices. They work with students, drug users, people who
work in the entertainment business and others who may be at risk of becoming infected by the virus.
