We soon became best friends. 我当时坐在一个名叫黛安娜的女孩身边。我们很快就成了最好的朋友。 During the assembly, the headmaster told us about the rules of the school. 在晨会上，校长向我们宣布了校规。 He also told us that the best way to earn respect was to devote ourselves to study and achieve high grades. This sounded like my school in China. 他还告诉我们，赢得尊重的最佳途径就是专心学习并取得好成绩。这听起来倒是像我在国内就读的学校。 I had many teachers in the past year. Mr Heywood, my class teacher, was very helpful. 过去的一年里我有过许多老师。海伍德先生，我的班主任，对我的帮助很大。 My favourite teacher was Miss BurkeI loved the lessons that she gave in English Literature. 我最喜欢的老师是伯克小姐我喜爱她教的英国文学课程。 In our class there were 28 students. This is about the average size for British schools. 我们班上一共有28个学生。英国中学的班级差不多就是这么大。 We had to move to different classrooms for different classes. 我们上不同的课得去不同的教室。 We also had different students in some classes, so it was a struggle for me to remember all the faces and names. 上某些课的时候，班上的同学也不一样，所以对我来说记住所有的人的面孔和名字可是一件难事。 I found that the homework was not as heavy as what I used to get in my old school. 我发现这里布置的家庭作业不像我以前在原来学校时那么繁重，可一开始我还是觉得有些挑战性，因为所有的作业都是英语的。 However, it was a bit challenging for me at first, because all the homework was in English. 让我感到幸运的是，所有的老师都给了我很多鼓励， I felt lucky, as all my teachers gave me much encouragement and I enjoyed all my subjects: 因此，我也喜欢我所学的每一门功课： English, History, English Literature, Computer Science, Maths, Science, PE, Art, Cooking and French. 英语、历史、英国文学、计算机、数学、科学、体育、艺术、烹饪和法语。 My English improved a lot, as I used English every day and spent an hour each day reading English books in the library. 我天天都在使用英语，每天还花一个小时在图书馆里阅读英文书籍，因此，我的英语有了很大进步。 I usually went to the Computer Club during the lunch break, so I could send e-mails to my family and friends back home for free. 午饭休息时间我常去电脑俱乐部，这样我就可以免费给国内的家人和朋友发电子邮件了。 I also had an extra French class on Tuesday evenings. 我还额外选了一门功课每个星期二晚上去听法语。 Cooking was really fun as I learnt how to buy, prepare and cook food. 当我学会如何买菜、配菜和做菜的时候，我发现烹饪真是一种乐趣。 At the end of term we held a class party and we all had to cook something. 学期末，我们班开了一个派对，我们每个人都要为派对做点吃的。 I was glad that all my classmates were fond of the cake that I made. 我们班上所有的同学都喜欢我做的蛋糕，这可真让我高兴。 Students at that school have to study Maths, English and Science, but can stop studying some subjects if they do not like them, for example, History and French. 数学、英语和科学是该校的必修课，但是，如果不喜欢某些科目是可以中断学习的，如历史和法语。 They can choose other subjects like Art and Computer Science, or languages such as Spanish and German. 学生可以选修其他的科目，如艺术、计算机或者是西班牙语、德语之类的语言课。 In the Art class that I took, I made a small sculpture. Though it did not look very beautiful when it was finished, I still liked it very much. 在艺术课上我做了一件小雕塑。尽管完工之后它看上去并不十分漂亮，但我仍然非常喜欢它。 I missed Chinese food a lot at lunch. 每到吃午餐的时候我就非常想念中国菜。 British food is very different. 英国的饮食很不一样。 British people like eating dessert at the end of their main meal. 英国人在正餐结束时喜欢吃甜点。 After lunch, we usually played on the school field. Sometimes I played football with the boys. 午餐后我们通常去学校运动场上玩耍。有时我和男生们一起踢足球。 Sometimes I just relaxed under a tree or sat on the grass. 有时我干脆在树下休息休息或是在草地上坐一坐。 I was very lucky to experience this different way of life. 我很幸运能够体验到这样一种不同的生活方式。 I look back on my time in the UK with satisfaction, and I really hope to go back and study in Manchester again. 回顾在英国的日子我很满意，真希望有朝一日能够重返曼彻斯特，在那里读书学习。Project Writing a report on growing pains Growing pains 成长的烦恼 Many teenagers feel lonely, as if no one understands them and the changes they are going through. Day by day, everything seems different, yet the same. Life never seems to be going fast enough; yet, in other ways, like a race car, life seems to be rushing too fast and even going out of control. Has anyone else ever felt this way? 很多青少年感到孤独，好像没有人理解他们以及他们正在经历的变化。日子一天天过去，而所有事情似乎都是不同的，可又都是一成不变的。生活似乎从不过得足够快；而从别的方面看，生活似乎过得太快甚至于失控，像开赛车一样。别的人也有过同感么？ These feelings are a common part of adolescence the time of life between child and adult. And, though it may sometimes be difficult to believe, you are not alone every adult has gone through adolescence, and your friends are going through it right now along with you. It is common for teenagers to feel lonely and misunderstood. These feelings can be thought of as growing pains the difficulties that teenagers face as they grow to adults. 这些感觉是青春期介于孩童和成人之间的人生阶段的正常组成部分。而且，虽然有时难以相信，并非只有你才是这样每一个成年人都经历过青春期，而你的朋友和你一样正经历这个阶段。对青少年而言，感到孤独和被误解是很普遍的。这些情感可以看作是成长的烦恼是青少年迈向成年时所面对的困难。 As teenagers grow, it is normal for them to become confused with the changing world both inside and outside of them. During adolescence, teenagers go through great physical changes. They grow taller and their voices get deeper, among many other developments. 在青少年成长的时候，对自己无论体内还是体外的状态变化感到困惑对他们而言是正常现象。在青春期，青少年经历着身体上的巨大变化。他们个子长高，声音变低，还有很多其他的成长发育。 Along with these physical changes, there come many psychological changes. Boys and girls tend to be different in this regard. Many boys become risk-takers they want to find their own limits and the limits of the world around them, but may not have the wisdom to make good choices in their behavior. At the same time, girls often want someone anyone to talk to, as they try to deal with their strong feelings. 与这些生理变化同时而来的，还有很多心理上的变化。男孩和女孩在这方面往往有所不同。很多男孩成为危险尝试者他们希望找到自己的局限和他们周边世界的局限，但也许并不具有对其行为作出正确抉择的智慧。而与此同时，女孩则通常需要和某个人或任何人进行交谈，因为她们试图面对自己强烈的情感。 In the social world, as teenagers get older, they struggle to depend on themselves. They may badly want and need their parents love, yet feel distant; they may want to be part of the group, yet desire independence. Since teenagers have difficulty balancing these needs, they often question who they are and how they fit in society. 在大千社会中，随着青少年长大，他们努力地自力更生。他们或许迫切需要父母的关爱，却又感觉疏远；他们或许想要成为团体的一员，但又渴望独立。正因为青少年们在平衡这些需要时有困难，所以他们经常质疑自己到底是谁以及怎样融入社会。 The good news is that these kinds of growing pains do not last. In the end everything turns out OK the teenager becomes a healthy adult, and this period of change and challenge is traded for the changes and challenges of grown-up life. 好在这些成长的烦恼并不会持久。最终一切都会好起来一青少年成长为健康的成年人，而青春期的变化和挑战则转变为成人生活中的种种变化和挑战。 Unit 3 Reading Dying to be thin 想瘦身想得快死了 Hi Zhou Ling嗨，周玲： How are you? I havent heard from you for weeks. Is everything OK with you? 你好。好几个星期都没收到你的来信了。一切顺利吗？ Do you still go to the gym every day? I used to go to the gym three times a week, but I dont work out any more. I know another way to stay slim. 你现在还是每天去健身房吗？我以前常去健身房，一周三次，可我现在不再锻炼了。我有了另外一种保持苗条身材的方法。 Looking good is important to women, isnt it? Most young women want a slim figure these days, especially here in Canada. Im trying to lose weight because Im ashamed of my body. 显得美丽对女性来说很重要，难道不是吗？如今，大部分年轻女性都想拥有苗条的身材，在加拿大这里尤其是这样。我目前在努力减肥，因为我的体形让我觉得非常羞愧。 Since Im preparing to act in a new TV show, Im taking weight-loss pills called Fat-Less, which are quite popular among young women here. 由于我正准备出演一部新的电视剧，所以我在服用一种名叫Fat-Less的减肥药片，这种药片很受加拿大年轻女性的欢迎。 I hope to lose at least 10 kilograms. I take two pills a day and dont need to exercise. 我希望能够至少减去1 0公斤。我每天服用两片，因而也就不用锻炼了。 The pills really work! Im becoming slimmer and slimmer. Ive lost 7 kilograms in the last two months. However, sometimes I dont feel so energetic. 减肥药片还真的管用哦！我现在可是越发苗条了。前两个月我就减去了7公斤。可是，有时候我感到没有精神。 My mother, who you met last year, keeps telling me not to take them because they are dangerous. She says health is the most important thing, and I agree, but then I look so slim at the moment. 我妈妈（你去年见过她的）一直告诫我不要服用减肥药片，因为减肥药危及健康。她说，健康是最重要的，我同意这个观点，可是我现在看上去多么苗条。 Write soon! 快些给我写信哦！ Love Amy爱你的埃米 Dear Zhou Ling亲爱的周玲： Things change so quickly! Im now in hospital recovering from liver failure. 情况变化实在是太快了！我现在住院了，患的是肝衰竭，正在恢复中。 I regret taking those weight-loss pills. They contain a harmful chemical that caused my liver to fail. The pills were going to completely destroy my liver if I continued taking them. 我很后悔服用了那种减肥药片。那些减肥药片里含有某种有害的化学物质，导致了我肝功能衰竭。如果我当时继续服用这些药片，我的肝脏就彻底毁了。 My mother insisted on sending me to the hospital, where I received good medical treatment. 我妈妈坚持将我送进了医院。在这儿我得到了很好的治疗。 It was a really painful experience, but Im feeling better now. I follow my doctors advice and exercise for at least half an hour every day (but I seldom go to the gym!), and eat lots of fruit and vegetables. 这的确是一段令人痛苦的经历，但是现在我感觉好多了。我听从医生的建议，每天锻炼至少半小时（但我很少去健身房！），吃很多的水果和蔬菜。 People should look after their bodies. My mother is right: dont damage your health for a slim and attractive figure. It isnt worth it. We shouldnt be ashamed of the way we look, should we? 人们应该照顾好自己的身体。我妈妈是对的：不要为了苗条、动人的身材毁了自己的健康，那样做是得不偿失的。我们不应该为自己的外表感到羞愧，不是吗？ I hope to hear from you soon. 我希望能够早点儿收到你的回信。 Love Amy爱你的埃米 Dear Amy亲爱的埃米： My computer was broken so I couldnt read your two e-mails until today. Im so sorry to hear about your problem, but Im glad youre feeling better and are recovering. 我的电脑出了故障，所以直到今天才能够看到你的两封电子邮件。得知你的病情我非常难过，但让我感到高兴的是，你现在感觉良好，身体正在恢复中。 Youre right. We shouldnt be embarrassed about our weight. I think you look great as you are, and youre wonderful person. I know that the pressure to stay slim is a problem, especially for an actress. However, your mother knows best: nothing is more important than health. 你说得对，我们不应该因为自己的体重感到难为情。我觉得你目前这个样子看上去就很棒，而且你是一个非常优秀的人。我知道，保持身材苗条的压力是问题的症结所在，对一个女演员来说尤其是这样。但是，你妈妈她最清楚不过：没有什么比健康更重要。 Its the same in China many people, some of whom are not overweight at all, are always going on a diet or taking weight-loss pills, which are often dangerous. I hope they can learn from your story. 在中国也是一样许多人总是节食或者吃减肥药（他们有些人根本一点也不胖），其实这是很危险的。我希望他们能从你的故事中有所收获。 Love Zhou Ling 爱你的周玲 模块1-单元3 Project(背诵） The truth is, diet and way of life are often a problem for teenagers. However, the good news is that you can feel better, look better and have more energy if you eat the right food and exercise regularly. 实际情况是，对青少年而言，饮食习惯和生活方式往往是个问题。但好消息是， 如果合理饮食，经常锻炼，你就可以感觉更好，气色更好，精力越发充沛。 Healthy eating along with regular exercise is probably the only way to become fit. Diets are useless in the long term, yet approximately 20% of teenagers say they have tried going on a diet and skipping meals to control their weight. If you eat properly and exercise regularly, you will lose weight, keep fit and feel great. 健康的饮食加上经常锻炼也许是变得健康的唯一途径。从长远角度来看，节食并不能奏效。然而有大约20的青少年声称，他们曾尝试过节食或者有时不吃饭，以控制自己的体重。如果你适当饮食并经常锻炼，你就会减轻体重，保持健康状态，感觉很棒。 As a teenager, it is important to give your body the energy it needs. If you skip meals, you dont get enough energy, and then you feel tired. For a healthy diet, you should eat mostly rice, bread, vegetables and fruit. You also need to drink a lot of watersix to eight glasses a day. Water helps keep your system clean. Drinking enough water will improve your skin and give you healthy hair. 作为青少年，给予你的身体所需要的足够能量是很重要的。如果不吃饭，你就不能得到足够的能量，因此就会感到疲倦。至于健康的饮食，你应该主要地摄入米饭、面包、蔬菜和水果。你还需要喝很多的水一天需要68杯。水有助于保持人体内部系统清洁。足量饮水会改善你的皮肤，让你拥有健康的头发。 Exercise is something that can help to make you look good, feel good and be healthy. Experts suggest that teenagers spend at least 30 minutes exercising, five times a week. That is easy to do! Walking and riding your bike count, and so do school sports. Often, teenagers give up sport, saying they have no time left after their studies. Many teenagers are surprised to learn that when you exercise, your body produces some chemicals that make you feel peaceful and relaxed and increase your ability to concentrate when you study. These chemicals can even help you sleep better at night. 锻炼能够让你气色好、感觉好、身体健康。专家建议，青少年每周至少应该锻炼五次，每次至少30分钟。这一点是很容易做到的!步行和骑自行车就算，校内体育活动也算。常常有这样的情况：有些青少年干脆放弃体育锻炼，声称学习繁忙，没有时间进行体育锻炼。很多青少年吃惊地得知，当你锻炼时，你的体内会产生某些化学物质，这些化学物质让你感到平静、放松，增强学习时的注意力。这些化学物质甚至还有助于你改善睡眠呢! A good amount of sleep every night is also important for your health. When you sleep, your body prepares you for the day to come. Teenagers need eight to ten hours of sleep each night. As a matter of fact, loss of sleep can make you look tired, and even cause you to gain weight.每晚保证充分的睡眠对你的健康也是很重要的。睡觉的时候，你的身体就帮你为即将到来的一天作好准备。青少年每晚需要81 0小时的睡眠。事实上，失眠会使你面容疲倦，甚至身体发胖。 If you follow the suggestions above, you will look and feel much better in no time at all. 如果你能遵循以上建议，用不了多久你就会气色好得多、感觉棒得多!专心-专注-专业
