Unit 1 Teenage Life
Learning Objectives
PART. 01
Understand the daily study and life of British middle school students by watching videos. Based on your own daily study and life, compare the study and life in Chinese and British schools, and find out the similarities and differences between the two. Talk about your first impression of high school life, and have a preliminary perception of the study and life in the senior high school stage.
Learning Objectives
Master words like prefer, recommend, addicted and identify noun/adjective/adverb phrases. Use them correctly in sentences about teenagers’ life, study, and club-related topics. Draft student club plans with organized details. Understand video content about Learning Across Generations, discuss family/educational differences, and present club-recruitment speeches.
Explore cultural aspects of teenagers’ life (e.g., Internet preference, education challenges in different countries). Learn about cultural differences in education and family-life contrasts. Appreciate global diversity in youth experiences.
Break down texts into components, analyze relationships (e.g., teen Internet use and health). Invent unique student club concepts, design logos/posters, and creatively solve club-setup challenges.
Use “text-analysis” for reading/writing, “plan-making” for club projects. Work in groups to design clubs, discuss video-based cultural topics. Reflect on unit learning (vocabulary, skills), revise drafts with feedback.

If you have learnt some maths at school, you can quite quickly work out that one eleventh is about 9 percent. But did you know that 9 percent is also the number of children who are not at school That’s right — one in 11 children is not studying and probably even cannot do the simple maths you just did so very easily. They drop out of school because their families are too poor and they have to work like adults. In 2013, millions of children and teenagers were out of school.

Most live in poor countries, but there are also some boys and girls who cannot go to school in rich countries. If you are one of the lucky ones who can go to a senior high school, you should be grateful for the opportunity. So the next time you feel like you do not want to do boring, difficult homework or go to class, think about the children who don’t have the chance to get a good education. Make the most of your education and make the world a better place.
