Module 1
Zhou Kai (1) When Zhou Kai’s mother saw him heading towards the front door without a jacket on, she eyed him anxiously.
“Zhou Kai, where are you going?” she asked.
“To the park. I’m going to play football,” said Zhou Kai “But it’s raining! You’ll catch a bad cold,” said his mother.
“No I won’t. I’ll be fine,” said Zhou Kai, as he opened the door.
“Zhou Kai, you’ll get ill. You know you will. You can at least go and get your jacket.”
“OK, OK.” Zhou Kai went as he was told.
Zhou Kai (2) My mother has always made sure we eat very healthily, and fresh fruit and vegetables are a very important part of our diet.We live near the sea and we have fish about four times a week. We don't eat much fat or sugar. A lot of my school friends eat sweets every day but I'm lucky because I don't have a sweet-tooth学-- I'd rather eat a nice piece of fruit. And I'm not too heavy, so I never have to diet, or anything like that.
I'm quite healthy I very rarely get colds, although, unusually for me, I had a bad cold and a bit of a fever last week. But that's because I was stupid enough to play football in the rain. I don't often get things like flu either. Last winter almost all my classmates got flu--- but I didn't. I think I don't get these things because I take a lot of exercise and am very fit. Two years ago I broke my arm playing football. The injury was quite painful and I couldn't move my arm for a month --- I hated that.。 So as you can see from what I've said, I'm a normal kind of person. But there's one thing I really love--- I'm crazy about football. I'm captain of the class team at school and I'm also a member of the Senior High team. Because of this, I make sure that I have a good diet, and as I've said, this isn't a problem because my mother feeds us so well.
Module 2 Article 1 My name is Adam Rouse. I’m 19 years old and I used to be a drug addict. I first started using drugs when I was 15. I bought cannabis from a man in the street. I continued to buy cannabis from the same man for about six months. One day he offered me some crack cocaine.
Article 2 Cocaine is a powerfully addictive drug. Some drug users inject cocaine, others smoke it. Both ways are dangerous. Users who inject the drug are also in more danger if they share needles with other users.
1.Crack cocaine is the most addictive form of cocaine. Users become addicted to crack cocaine much more easily if they smoke it. Smoking allows cocaine to reach the brain very quickly. 2.When I went back to the man again, I wanted more crack cocaine. But he asked me for a lot of money. I didn't have enough money so he didn't give me any drugs. I was in terrible pain.
3.The next day, I broke into a house and stole a television and a video recorder. I took them to the drug dealer. He told me to take them to a shop in a nearby street. The man in the shop gave me some money.。 I took the money to the drug dealer and he gave me some more crack cocaine. 4.Using cocaine increases the user's heart rate and blood pressure. As a result, cocaine users sometimes have heart attacks. 所Smoking crack cocaine also causes anti-social behavior.
5.By this time, I was addicted to crack cocaine. If I didn't have any drugs, I was in terrible pain. And I had to steal something every day to pay for the drugs. One day, the police took me to the police station. 6.The next day, a doctor came to see me. He told me that I could die if1 didn't stop taking crack cocaine, so 1took his advice and stopped immediately. Now I work in a centre for drug addicts, helping others to stop taking drugs.

6.必修二Module 6 Film Review:Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon影评:《卧虎藏龙》Martial arts films are often enjoyable but they are seldom great art. 功夫片通常好看，却难登大雅之堂。Now, to everyone's surprise, Ang Lee, director of a number of excellent films, has made a martial arts film called Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. The result is a masterpiece. 令大家惊讶的是，曾经拍了许多优秀影片的导演李安，现在也拍了一部名为《卧虎藏龙》的功夫片杰作。The film belongs to a type of Chinese story called wuxia. 这部电影属于中国武侠小说的一种。 These stories tell of nineteenth-century martial arts masters with unusual abilities. 这些故事讲述的是19世纪那些有着非凡才能的功夫大师。Wuxia films are popular in China, and they are now popular in the west too. 武侠电影在中国很流行，现在在国外也深受欢迎。The story takes place in the early 1800s in China. 《卧虎藏龙》的故事发生在19世纪初的中国。 A man and a woman, Li Mubai (played by Chow Yun-Fat) and Yu Xiulian (played by Michelle Yeoh), both masters of the martial arts, are in love with each other. 一男一女两位功夫大师，李慕白(周润发饰)和俞秀莲(杨紫琼饰)，相爱了。 But Xiulian had a fiancé who has died. Because this fiancé was a good friend of Mubai, Mubai feels that he cannot marry Xiulian. 但是，由于李慕白是俞秀莲过世情郎的生前好友，他觉得无法迎娶秀莲。When someone steals Xiulian's sword, Mubai and Xiulian try to get it back. 当秀莲的宝剑被盗之后，慕白和秀莲决心将其追回。The action takes place on Peking rooftops, and in places as far away as the deserts of western China. 故事情节的发生地从京城房顶到西部大漠。 As in the old wuxia stories, characters leap through the air every now and then, with beautiful, graceful movements, while audiences shout in surprise. 正如在古代武侠故事中一样，影片中的人们不时在空中跳跃并做出许多优美的动作，观众看到这些时部发出了惊叫。Unusually, it is the female characters that interest us most. 不同寻常的是，(影片中的)女角色最能吸引我们。Brave, good and strong, Xiulian is the character we care about most. 我们最关注秀莲这个角色，她勇敢、善良、坚强。Beautiful Zhang Ziyi plays the part of Yu Jiaolong, a young woman who is not as good as she seems. 美丽的章子仪扮演玉娇龙，一个并不像外表看起来那样善良的年轻女子。 The fight scenes between Jiaolong and Xiulian are some of the most exciting moments in modern cinema. 玉娇龙和俞秀莲的打斗场景是现代影院里最为精彩的时刻。But one cannot forget the wonderful Chow Yun-Fat, who is as good with a sword as he is with a gun. 但是谁也不会注意不到周润发，他真是很了不起，他使剑和使枪一样厉害。His romantic scenes with Yu Xiulian are very moving, as their eyes show all the love that they must not express in words. 他和俞秀莲之间的浪漫戏很感人，他们的眼神传递了所有的爱意，这种爱是不可以通过语言表达的。Films like this rarely reach the cinema. Go and see Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. It will make your heart leap with excitement at its beauty. 这类电影在电影院看到实属难得，去看卧虎藏龙吧，它会用它的大美让你的心跳加速。
