Reading
School life in the UK
The article is taken from a school magazine written by an exchange student. After studying in the UK for one year, she gives us a brief but clear description about what school life in the UK is like from her own experience. The reading strategy of the unit teaches students two basic reading skills, skimming and scanning. Step1 Leading — in
Ask students if they have brought some photos or materialsabout the UK.The teacher can either ask students to pass them around or invite some students to make brief descriptions of the photos. Encourage students to use the information to discuss the difference and try to think of the reasons for these differences like this:
1.Do you know of any differences between the lives of Chinese and British high school
students?
2.Can you try to give some reasons for the differences?
After the discussion, the teacher may say: What makes you think of when you see the title?Which parts of school life in the UK do you think the author will talk about
in the article?
Step2 Fast reading for general ideas
Ask students to go through the passage as quickly as possible and try to find
answers to the three questions in Part A. Remind students only to focus on and identify the most important information.
1. What did Wei Hua think of her life in the UK? (She thought it was a very enjoyable and exciting experience.)
2. What subjects did Wei Hua study in the past year? (English, History, English Literature, Computer Science, Maths, Science, PE, Art, Cooking and French.) 3.Which British city did Wei Hua go to? (Manchester)
