Guess:
What is the theme about?
Look and say.
We may think we know ourselves better than anyone else. But is that true? In this unit, let’s explore the idea of self. What do you think of your looks? How much do you know about yourself? Do you want to challenge yourself? By the end of this unit, you will make a speech about yourself.
After completing the unit, you will be able to:
use words and expressions in the unit to talk about yourself.
use the present perfect tense to talk about experiences of accepting yourself.
describe yourself and your values.
What do you know about yourself?
Make a thinking map about yourself and introduce yourself to others.

I’m good at…
I’m not good at…
I’m outgoing/…
I like…, but I don’t like…
I’m interested in…, but I’m not into…

I have…
I wear…
Think and say.

Look and guess.

2. Who changed the girl’s opinion about her birthmark?
No, She didn’t
The New student maddie.
1. I suppose everyone has something they don't like about themselves. For me, it was the birthmark on my face. It was bright red, the colour of a strawberry.
2. Sometimes, I felt people secretly looking at my face. But when I turned my head, they looked away. On crowded buses and trains it felt just like a disaster. With so many people around me, my birthmark burned red hot. Therefore, I always kept my hair long to cover it until that day.
3. It was a cloudy morning. A new student named Maddie arrived in our class. She sat right beside me. Instead of looking away, Maddie studied my face. This made me so nervous. Clouds came through the window and filled my heart. Suddenly, she said something I would never forget.

4. “Sally, right?" she said.“You have a red rose on your face. How beautiful!”
5. I looked up and met her smiling eyes. Although I only replied“thank you", it turned sunny in my heart. When I got home, l rushed to the bathroom and looked in the mirror. For the first time, I could look at my birthmark without quickly turning away.The shape of it was truly like a flower. The next day, to my surprise, Maddie painted a red rose on her own face!
6. I haven't told Maddie the whole story yet. Anyway, she has changed me. I have already learnt that I am what I am. Everyone has something special and different -that is what's interesting.
