1、精选优质文档-倾情为你奉上九年级3A课文原文How I Learned to Learn EnglishLast year, I did not like my English class. Every class was like a bad dream. The teacher spoke too quickly. But I was afraid to ask questions because my pronunciation was very bad. So I just hid behind my textbook and never said anything. Then one
2、 day I watched an English movie called Toy Story. I fell in love with this exciting and funny movie! So then I began to watch other English movies too. Although I could not(couldnt) understand everything the characters said, their body language and the expressions on their faces helped me to get the
3、 meaning. I also realized I could get it by listening for just the key words.My pronunciation also improved by listening to the interesting conversations in English movies. I discovered that listening to something interesting is the secret to language learning. I also learned useful sentences like “
4、Its a piece of cake” or “It serves you right.” I didnt understand these sentences at first. But because I wanted to understand the story, I looked up the words in a dictionary. Now I really enjoy my English class. I want to learn new words and more grammar. Then I can have a better understanding of
5、English movies. Unit4 I used to be afraid of the darkA_3a From Shy Girl to Pop StarFor this months Young World magazine, I interviewed 19-year-old Asian pop star Candy Wang. Candy told me that she used to be really shy and took up singing to deal with her shyness. As she got better, she dared to sin
6、g in front of her class, and then for the whole school. Now shes not shy anymore and loves singing in front of crowds. I asked Candy how life was different after she became famous. She explained that there are many good things, like being able to travel and meet new people all the time. “I didnt use
7、 to be popular in school, but now I get tons of attention everywhere I go.” However, too much attention can also be a bad thing. “I always have to worry about how I appear to others and I have to be very careful about what I say or do.And I dont have much private time anymore.Hanging out with friend
8、s is almost impossible for me now because there are always guards around me.” What does Candy have to say to all those young people who want to become famous? “Well,” she begins slowly, “you have to be prepared to give up your normal life. You can never imagine how difficult the road to success is.
9、Many times I thought about giving up, but I fought on. You really require a lot of talent and hard work to succeed. Only a very small number of people make it to the top.”Unit5 What are the shirts made of?The Difficult Search for American Goods in the USIf you go to another country, what kinds of th
10、ings would you buy? Would you buy a camera in Japan, some beautiful clothes in France, or a watch in Switzerland?No matter what you may buy, you might probably think those products are made in those countries.However, you could be wrong. Kang Jian is a 17-year-old student from Shanghai.Last year he
11、went to visit his aunt and uncle in San Francisco.He found it interesting that so many products in the local shops were made in China.“I wanted to buy a toy car for my cousin, but even though most of the toys had American brands, they were made in China.” Toys are not the only things made in China.
12、“I wanted to buy a pair of basketball shoes,” he explains. “But I had to visit five or six stores before finding a pair made in America!”He realized that Americans can hardly avoid buying products made in China.“In fact,” he continues, “there are so many things made in China footballs, handbags, pet
13、 food, mobile phones. Even American flags are made in China!”Kang Jian thinks its great that China is so good at making these everyday things.However, he wishes that in the future China will also get better at making high-technology products that people can buy in all parts of the world. Unit6 When
14、was it invented?An Accidental InventionDid you know that tea, the most popular drink in the world (after water), was invented by accident? Many people believe that tea was first drunk about 5,000 years ago. It is said that a Chinese ruler called Shen Nong first discovered tea as a drink. One day She
15、n Nong was boiling drinking water over an open fire. Some leaves from a tea plant fell into the water and remained there for some time. It produced a nice smell so he tasted the brown water anyway. It was quite delicious. In this way, one of the worlds favorite drinks was invented. More than 4,000 y
16、ears later, Lu Yu, “the saint of tea”, mentioned Shen Nong in his book Cha Jing. The book describes how tea plants were grown and used to make tea. It also discusses where the finest tea leaves were produced and what kinds of water were used. It is believed that tea was brought to Korea and Japan du
17、ring the 6th and 7th centuries. In England, tea didnt appear until around 1660, but less than 100 years later, it had become the national drink. The tea trade from China to Western countries took place in the 19th century. This helped to spread the popularity of tea and the tea plant to more places
18、around the world. Even though many people now know about tea culture, the Chinese are without doubt the ones who best understand the nature of tea. Unit8 It must belong to Carla.We live in a small town and almost everyone knows each other. It used to be very quiet and nothing much ever happened arou
19、nd here. However, these days, something unusual is happening in our town. Victor, a teacher at my school, is really nervous. When he was interviewed by the town newspaper, he said, “Every night we hear strange noises outside our window. My wife thinks that it could be an animal, but my friends and I
20、 think it must be teenagers having fun. My parents called the policemen, but they couldnt find anything strange. They think it might be the wind. I dont think so!”Victors next-door neighbor Helen is worried, too. “At first, I thought that it might be a dog, but I couldnt see a dog, or anything else,
21、 either. So I guess it cant be a dog. But then, what could it be?” One woman in the area saw something running away, but it was dark so she is not sure. “I think it was too big to be a dog,” she said. “Maybe it was a bear or a wolf.” Everyone in our town is feeling uneasy, and everyone has his or he
