Speaking
Yiming: Lu Yao, which art class are you going to choose?
Lu Yao: I’m thinking of taking the drama class. I have never done any acting before, but it seems really interesting. I want to try something outside my normal interests.
/ˈnɔːml/ adj. 正常的、典型的
Speaking
Yiming: Oh, drama isn’t really my thing. I prefer photography to drama. I want to learn how to take good pictures.
Lu Yao: It’s a pity that we won’t be in the same class. What about you, Bailing?
Bailing: I like pottery a lot. I’d like to develop a new hobby and I want to learn to make cups and bowls for myself.

Pair and share
Work in pairs. Look at the choice of art classes and talk about your preference. Share your choice and the reasons with your partner.
Pair and share
Sample
Hey, look at this! I’d choose Pottery first. I love making things with my hands, and it’s so satisfying to create something useful—like a bowl I could actually eat from! Plus, working with clay feels calming after math class.
Oh, interesting! I’d pick Drama instead. For me, it’s all about expressing feelings I can’t put into words. Last year, I played a tree in a play—it was silly, but I got to be loud and creative without worrying about ‘getting it right.’ Do you think Pottery is hard to learn?
Pair and share
Sample
Hmm, maybe at first! But the description says ‘learn to make your own pots’—so it’s probably step-by-step. Why not Dance? You seem energetic!
True, I do love dancing! But Dance feels stricter—like, ‘develop knowledge and skills’ sounds very technical. Drama is more free. What’s your second choice?
Pair and share
Sample
Maybe Painting? I enjoy colors, but I’m not patient enough to sit still for hours. Music could be fun too—singing with friends! But Pottery wins because I can take my creation home. Would you try Pottery if I did?
Sure! If you promise not to laugh at my messy mug. Honestly, though—any art class beats sitting quietly. Let’s both sign up for Pottery next term?
Update my to-do list
In pairs, talk about other art classes you would like to choose and the reasons for your choice.
Hi Bella! Which art class would you choose besides the ones we saw? I’d love to try sculpture.
Oh, interesting! Why sculpture?
Sample
Because I enjoy working with my hands. Last year, I made a small clay turtle, and it felt amazing to create something 3D. Sculpture lets me explore shapes and textures—it’s like magic! What about you?
Update my to-do list
In pairs, talk about other art classes you would like to choose and the reasons for your choice.
Sample
Hmm… I’d pick photography! My phone has a great camera, and I love capturing moments—like sunsets or my dog doing silly things. It teaches me patience and how to see beauty in small details. Plus, I can share my photos online!
That sounds cool! Do you think photography helps with other arts?
Definitely! Good photos inspire my paintings. And understanding light or shadow makes drawing easier. You? Would sculpture help with pottery?
Update my to-do list
In pairs, talk about other art classes you would like to choose and the reasons for your choice.
Totally! Both use clay, but sculpture focuses more on figures and movement. Maybe I’ll combine them someday!
Great idea! Let’s both sign up next term?
Sample
Yes! Thanks for sharing your choice—now I’m even more excited!
