1、-人教版九年级英语课文原文word版-第 52 页Unit1 How can we become good learners?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 t
2、extbook and never said anything.Then one 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 as well. Although I could not understand everything the characters said, their body language and the expressions
3、on their faces helped me to get the meaning. I also realized I could get the meaning 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 you are interested in is the secret to la
4、nguage learning. I also learned useful sentences like “Its a piece of cake” or “It serves you right.” I did not 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
5、 more grammar. Then I can have a better understanding of English movies.P6 2bHow Can You Become a Successful Learner?Everyone is born with the ability to learn. But whether or not you can do this well depends on your learning habits. Research shows that successful learners have some good habits in c
6、ommon.Creating an interest in what they learnStudies show that if you are interested in something, your brain is more active and it is also easier for you to pay attention to it for a long time. Good learners often connect what they need to learn with something they are interested in. For example, i
7、f they need to learn English and they like music or sports, they can listen to English songs or watch sports programs in English. This way they will not get bored.Practicing and learning from mistakesGood learners think about what they are good at and what they need to practice more. Remember, “use
8、it or lose it”! Even if you learn something well, you will forget it unless you use it. Practice makes perfect. Good learners are also not afraid of making mistakes. Alexander Graham Bell did not invent the telephone overnight. He succeeded by trying many times and learning from his mistakes.Develop
9、ing their study skillsIt is not enough to just study hard. You have to know how to study. Good learners find out the best ways to learn well. For example, they may take notes by writing down key words or by drawing mind maps. Good learners also look for ways to review what they have learned. They ma
10、y do this by reading their notes every day or by explaining the information to another student.Asking questionsGood learners oft en ask questions during or after class. They even ask each other and try to find out the answers. Knowledge comes from questioning. Learning is a life-long journey because
11、 every day brings something new. Everything that you learn becomes a part of you and changes you, so learn wisely and learn well.P8 self check 1Practice develop remember prepare takeuntil worry everything stressed exercisesAre you_ out each time you have a test?

13、cakes are delicious!P13 3aFull Moon, Full FeelingsChinese people have been celebrating Mid-Autumn Festival and enjoying mooncakes for centuries. Mooncakes have the shape of a full moon onmid-autumn night. They carry peoples wishes to the families they love and miss. There are many traditional folk s
14、tories about this festival. However, most people think that the story of Change is the most touching. Change was Hou Yis beautiful wife. After Hou Yi shot down the nine suns, a goddess gave him a magic medicine to thank him. Whoever drank this could live forever, and Hou Yi planned to drink it with
15、Change. However, a bad man, Feng Meng, tried to steal the medicine when Hou Yi was not home. Change refused to give it to him and drank it all. She became very light and flew up to the moon. Hou Yi was so sad that he called out her name to the moon every night. One night, he found that the moon was
16、so bright and round that he could see his wife there. He quickly laid out her favorite fruits and desserts in the garden. How he wished that Change could come back! After this, people started the tradition of admiring the moon and sharing mooncakes with their families. P12 4bDear Xia Yu,Do you know
17、that there are two special days for parents in America? One is Mothers Day on the second Sunday of May and the other is Fathers Day on the third Sunday of June. On these two days, American children oft en give gifts to their parents or take them out for lunch or dinner. Common gifts are flowers and
18、cards for mothers and shirts or ties for fathers. I heard that it is becoming more and more popular to celebrate Mothers Day and Fathers Day in China. I wonder if children over there also give similar gift s to their parents. I believe that there are many ways to show our love. Actually, we dont hav
19、e to spend a lot of money. It is also a good idea to help parents to do something instead.JuneP14 2bThe Spirit of ChristmasMany would agree that when we think of Christmas, we probably think of gift s, Christmas trees and Santa Claus. But behind all these things lies the true meaning of Christmas: t
20、he importance of sharing and is perhaps the best example of this.A Christmas Carol is a famous novel written by Charles Dickens. It is about an old man named Scrooge who never laughs or smiles. He is mean and only thinks about himself, and doesnt treat others nicely. He just cares about whether he c
21、an make more money. And he hates Christmas. One Christmas Eve, Scrooge sees the ghost of Jacob Marley, his dead business partner. Marley used to be just like Scrooge, so he was punished after he died. He warns Scrooge to change his ways if he doesnt want to end up like him. He also tells Scrooge to
22、expect three spirits to visit him. That night, three ghosts visit Scrooge. First, the Ghost of Christmas Past takes him back to his childhood and reminds Scrooge of his happier days as a child. Then the second spirit, the Ghost of Christmas Present, takes him to see how others are spending Christmas
23、 this year. Everyone is happy, even poor people. The last one, the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come, takes him to the future. He sees that he is dead but nobody cares. Scrooge is so scared that he wakes up in his bed and finds out it is already the next morning on Christmas Day!He decides to change hi
24、s life and promises to be a better person. He happily celebrates Christmas with his relatives. He also gives gift s to people in need. He now treats everyone with kindness and warmth, spreading love and joy everywhere he goes. And that is the true spirit of Christmas!P16 self check 1garden spread be

Its a fast food place. It serves delicious hamburgers and hot dogs.Alice: That sounds perfect!On their way to
30、Water City Restaurant, Alice and He Wei pass by Uncle Bobs.Alice: Oh, look! This restaurant looks interesting. It seems a rock band plays there every evening.He Wei: Maybe we can come here for dinner later. Lets ask what time the band starts.Alice and He Wei walk up to a staff person at the door.He
31、Wei: Excuse me, could you tell us when the band starts playing this evening?Staff: Eight oclock. Its always busy, so come a little earlier to get a table.He Wei: OK, thanks!P22 2bCould You Please .?When you visit a foreign country, it is important to know how to ask for help politely. For example, “
32、Where are the restrooms?” or “Could you please tell me where the restrooms are?” are similar requests for directions to a place. Both are correct English, but the first one sounds less polite. That is because it is a very direct question. It is not enough to just ask a question correctly. We also ne
33、ed to learn how to be polite by being less direct or more indirect when we ask for help.In English, as in Chinese, we change the way we speak when we talk with different people. The expressions you use might depend on whom you are speaking to or how well you know them. If you say to your teacher, “W
34、hen is the school trip., this might sound impolite. But if you say, “Excuse me, Mr. West. Do you know when the school trip is?, this will sound much more polite. However, it is all right to ask direct questions in some situations, like with your classmates. Usually polite questions are longer and in
35、clude more language such as “Could you please .?” or “Can I ask .?” It sounds more polite to say, “Peter, could you please tell me your e-mail address?” than “Peter, tell me your e-mail address.” Sometimes we even need to spend time leading in to a request. For example, with a stranger on the street
36、, we might first say, “Excuse me, I wonder if you can help me” or “Im sorry to trouble you, but .” before asking for help.It might seem more difficult to speak politely than be direct. However, it is important to learn how to use proper language. This will also help you become better at English, or
37、any other language you wish to speak.Unit 4 I used to be afraid of the dark.P27 3aFrom Shy Girl to Pop Star1 For 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 go
38、t better, she dared to sing in front of her class, and then for the whole school. Now shes not shy anymore and loves singing in front of crowds. 2 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 peopl
39、e all the time. “I didnt use 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 an
40、ymore. Hanging out with friends is almost impossible for me now because there are always guards around me.”3 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 dif
41、ficult the road to success is. 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.”P30 2bHe Used to Cause a Lot of TroubleLi Wen is a normal 15-year-old boy who works hard in school
42、 and gets good grades. It is hard to believe that he used to be a “problem child” until a conversation with his parents influenced his way of thinking. Li Wen lives in the Sichuan countryside. As a small child, he seldom gave his parents any problems, and they were proud of him. However, _, the boys
43、 life became more difficult. He had to move in with his grandmother. Li Wen began to cause problems for himself and his family. He was no longer interested in studying. He was oft en absent from classes, and he failed his examinations. Finally, his parents made a decision to send him to a boarding s
44、chool. Li Wen no longer lived with his grandmother. He studied, ate and slept at the school, and he hated it. There were so many rules, and he used to keep breaking them. One day, he told his teacher he wanted to leave the school. _The head teacher advised his parents to talk with their son in perso
45、n. His parents took a 40-hour train ride and a five-hour bus ride to go back to their hometown. To Li Wens surprise, their conversation changed his life. “It was exactly what I needed,” he said. “My parents helped me to understand how much they had given me. They also told me that even though they c
46、ouldnt be there to take care of me, they were always thinking of me and would take pride in everything good that I did._. I realized that since my parents moved away, Ive been afraid of being alone, and have tried to make my parents pay more attention to me.”_. He has been working hard and is now on
47、e of the best students in his class. His parents love has made him feel good about himself. “Its very important for parents to be there for their children,” Li Wen says.P31 2ebe proud of/take pride in make a decision/decide not like/hateno longer/not . anymore change/influence look after/take care ofLi Wen is a good student, son and grandson.
