Lead in Yes, I can see the Sun, Earth, and Mars. And there's also Jupiter! Pre-writing 02 Pre-writing Pair work. Color the sun, Earth and Mars. Talk about Earth’s other neighbors you know. Earth and its neighbors Reading for Writing Pre-writing Earth and its neighbors Reading for Writing Teacher, can I color the Sun orange? Of course! Orange is a perfect color for the Sun. Pre-writing Earth and its neighbors Reading for Writing The Sun is usually yellow or orange. The Earth is blue (for oceans) and green (for lands). Mars is often red. Pre-writing Earth and its neighbors Reading for Writing We talked about Venus. Venus is the second planet from the Sun. It’s very hot because its atmosphere is thick and full of greenhouse gases, which trap heat. Mercury is the first planet from the Sun. It’s small and has a lot of craters on its surface. Pre-writing Read the text about Earth and Mars and complete the table. Reading for Writing What’s the main idea of the text? The main idea of the text is to introduce the similarities and differences between Earth and its neighboring planet Mars. Earth and its neighbors Pre-writing Reading for Writing Earth and Its Neighbor—Mars Is there any life in outer space? We may think of the same planet—Mars. Earth and its neighbors Do you know Mars? What do you think Mars is like? I know Mars! It’s often called the "Red Planet" because its soil has iron oxide—basically rust—which makes it look reddish. Pre-writing Reading for Writing Mars is smaller than Earth. It has a diameter of around 6,800 kilometers and Earth’s diameter is around 13,000 kilometers. Mars looks red because of its red soil, while most parts of Earth look blue because of its oceans. What’s Mars’ approximate diameter? Earth and its neighbors Pre-writing Reading for Writing As a neighbor planet, Mars is farther from the Sun than Earth. Mars is about 228 million kilometers away from the Sun, while Earth is about 150 million kilometers away. That is why Mars is colder than Earth. About how far is Mars from the Sun? Earth and its neighbors Pre-writing Reading for Writing The temperature on Mars is about minus 63°C; here on Earth, the temperature is about 14°C on average. Although the two planets have many differences, they have something in common—water. On Mars, there’s a lot of ice under the ground; On Earth, we have water both on and under the ground. What's the average temperature on Mars? Earth and its neighbors Pre-writing Reading for Writing Earth and its neighbors Mars is waiting for us to explore, and so is the universe. Pre-writing Reading for Writing Earth and its neighbors Read the text about Earth and Mars and complete the table. Planet Diameter Distance from the Sun Average temperature Water Earth Around 13,000 kilometers About 150 million kilometers About 14∘C Water exists both on and under the ground. Mars Around 6,800 kilometers About 228 million kilometers About −63∘C A lot of ice is under the ground. While-writing 03 While-writing Draw a table to compare two planets, and then draft your essay.

Step 2 Draw a table to compare two planets. While-writing Step 3 Make your final draft in your exercise book. Reading for Writing I like Chinese calligraphy for many reasons. First, the writing brushes, ink sticks, paper, and inkstones — the “Four Treasures of the Study” — are really special. Each tool stands for a part of traditional Chinese culture. For example, a good writing brush can make the strokes so smooth, and high - quality ink gives the characters a nice shine. Second, I think the different styles of calligraphy are amazing. There are five main styles — Zhengshu (regular script), Caoshu (cursive script), Xingshu (running script), Lishu (official script), and Zhuanshu (seal script). Each shows beauty in its own way. Third, I like the feeling when writing. Writing calligraphy makes me calm, and seeing the beautiful characters I create is so satisfying. The lines and structures of the characters are like a dance on the paper. Earth and Venus Earth and Venus are both planets in the solar system, but they have many differences. Earth has a diameter of around 13,000 kilometers, while Venus has a diameter of about 12,104 kilometers.Venus is about 108 million kilometers away from the Sun, which is closer than Earth that is about 150 million kilometers away from the Sun.
