Welcome unit-Reading and Thinking
The reading material in this section is a personal web page post titled "First Impressions" by Han Jing, a senior high school student. It is presented in a format that is easy for students to relate to, as it reflects the real - life experiences of starting senior high school.
Han Jing records her first - day experiences in senior high school in a chronological order. In the morning, she was anxious about starting a new school life, worrying about making friends and whether she could fit in. At noon, she recalled an interesting math class where the teacher's kindness and humor left a deep impression on her. In the afternoon, she had an experiment in the science lab, but was annoyed by a talkative guy sitting next to her. By the evening, despite some minor setbacks, she felt more confident and was looking forward to exploring her new school life.
The text is not only a narrative of a student's first - day experiences but also a platform for students to review basic grammar knowledge, such as different sentence types (declarative, interrogative, imperative, exclamatory sentences) and common tenses (simple present, simple past, simple future). The language used is colloquial and full of expressions of personal emotions, which can arouse students' resonance.
