I like music that is quiet and gentle. When I am stressed out, I always listen to music to relax myself. My favorite music is country. This music is great，because it has great lyrics. I don’t like music that is too loud. I can’t stand rock music. As for musicians, I prefer musicians who can write their original lyrics and I like singers who can sing the words clearly. So Jay Chou isn’t my favorite though he is great. My favorite singer is John Denver. You can listen to his songs at night with your bedroom light on. He is really wonderful, I think.

Different preferences bring about problems
My brother and I like music very much. It seems that we have the same hobby. Actually, we also have a problem. I like music that is gentle and quite. My brother likes music that is loud and energetic.
I always feel a bit tired after school, so I usually play Bandari’s CD to get relaxed. While my brother doesn’t like it, he says the music that I like makes him feel like sleeping. Whenever I play the CD，he would ask me to turn off the recorder. If I don’t agree, he will be angry with me. When I take out My CD, he will play his Rock-and-roll music very loud. Then he won’t listen to anybody speaking. I just can’t stand noisy music. But I don’t want to argue with him.
I came up with an idea to solve the problem. I will buy a pair of headphones for my brother as a birthday gift.

I Love Computer
I love computer very much, because it is very useful in my life. I can surf the Internet to look for useful information. It is more convenient than using books. So I like websites that provide information for middle school students. I can read e-books on computer. I not only look at the words but also listen to the sound. In this way, I can learn English after school by myself easily.
Modern people even can’t do their job well without computers. We know that computers can help people do many things today. For example, they can help store data for a long time. Scientists use computers to solve difficult problems. Musicians use them to make records. I am sure computers will be a very important part of people’s lives.

10% of the students like classical music. They say they like music that is gentle and quiet. It helps them to relax themselves. 55% of the students like pop music. Most of them like music that they can sing along with. Pop songs are easy to learn for middle school students. 20% of the students like listening to rock-and-roll music. Most of them are boys. This kind of music is loud and energetic. It just suits wild boys fine. 15% of the students like dance music because they are taking dance classes in their spare time.
According the result, most students like pop music, but only a few students like classical music. I think young students should learn to listen and enjoy classical music, because it’s one of the best parts of human culture. Schools should teach them how to appreciate it.
Unit 7 Where would you like to visit?
【单元话题分析】
随着经济的飞速发展和人们生活质量的不断提高，越来越多的人选择节假日外出旅游。有人喜欢国内游，有人偏爱出境游；有人喜欢自然风光，有人喜欢城市风情。你喜欢到哪些地方参观旅游呢？本单元我们谈论的话题就是旅游度假。
旅游度假是《英语课程标准》话题项目中的一项重要内容。该话题涉及的内容比较广泛。 5
常见的写作内容包括以下几个方面：一、讲述一次旅行的经历；二、谈论想要去游览的地方，制定旅行计划；三、简单介绍某城市或某旅游景点。由于写作的话题较为广泛，涉及到的时态也较多，应根据写作内容而定。讲述一次旅行经历说的是发生在过去的事，因此一般使用一般过去时；当谈论旅行计划时，就应该使用一般将来时；需要介绍城市或景点时，我们常使用一般现在时，介绍它的历史或正在发生的变化则应注意时态的选择。
这个话题的命题形式也比较灵活。一种是比较常见的提示性作文，根据题目的文字或图表提示按要求写作。写作时要注意内容完整，时态正确；一种是开放性题目，比如记一次旅行的经历，介绍一座你熟悉的城市等。同学们在写作这类作文时，在题目、选材、文体、想象空间上有极大的自由性和自主性。记述旅行经历是应该注意时间顺序安排要恰当和记述的重点要突出，而介绍一座城市或景点时，则要注意突出它的特点。
【写作指导】
1. 重点突出、特征鲜明。本单元话题涉及到了记叙文和描写文，如记一次旅行经历是记叙文，而介绍城市或景点则是描写文。写作记叙文要交代清楚时间、地点、人物、事件、经过、结果等要素。首先要确定讲述的重点，然后根据重点对材料进行选择整理，再确定要使用的词汇、句型等表达方式。写作描写文则需要对描写的对象进行细致的观察。有选择性的把城市或景点的与众不同之处作为写作的重点，给人留下深刻的印象，避免流水账式的介绍。
2. 顺序得当。无论是记叙文还是描写文，都忌杂乱无章，一定要有恰当的顺序。记事时一般按照一定的时间顺序写作。按照人们的习惯，介绍城市的一般顺序是地理位置、人口、气候、交通、文化教育和医疗和旅游。写作时应该根据写作重点进行适当的调整和增减。
3. 使用多种表达方式，熟悉常用词汇句型。写作这类作文常见的句型有：
Hangzhou is beautiful city with a population of over seven million. It has a long history. I’d like to go to Dalian.
Changsha is famous for its beautiful scenery.
The weather here is quite pleasant.
Xinjiang is a place worth visiting.

Last summer holiday, I went to Hainan with my family by air. The weather was wonderful! It wasn’t hot at all. The sky was blue more than I could describe, the sea was blue and bright more than I could believe. Walking by the sea is just like being in an oil painting. We sailed to an island called Xidao. I swam there. Swimming in the sea is quite different from that in a swimming pool, because the sea is so deep that I can dive for a long time. We also enjoyed the food there. We had a nice seafood dish. It was really tasty. I really like that place. I hope to go there again some day.

Beijing is the capital of China with a long history. There are lots of places of interest, such as the Great Wall, the Palace Museum, the Summer Palace and so on.

As for traditional food, one of the most famous is Beijing Roast Duck. In addition, the 2008 Olympic Games will be held in Beijing, which brings a better chance to know about China and Beijing. So, welcome to Beijing and enjoy everything 6

In winter, it is very cold, and sometimes it snows heavily. The scenery there is quite unusual. In the south of the city, it is mainly gobi desert. Hami City is an oasis in the desert. In the north of city，it is mainly grassland. It is just like two worlds.
I hope to go there some day. It’s really an attractive place.

I am a member of the Youth Volunteers Service of our school. Every week we volunteer to do something for the school. Our school has a big garden, and there are many flowers in it. Every Friday afternoon, we work in the garden to take care of the flowers after school. Usually, we plough and water the flowers. The streets around our school are very busy, so they need to be cleaned frequently, but the dustmen seem to be very busy. So we also help clean the streets every week. Besides, we try our best to tell the young students to stay away from Internet bars. The top students of the Youth Volunteers Service have to do more. They always help the students who have difficulties in their subjects with their schoolwork.

假若下面图画中的学生就是你，根据以下六幅图画，用英语写一篇故事。
注意：1．故事须包括所有图画的内容，可以适当发挥想象增加细节，使故事连贯。
2．词数100左右。
22
分析: 这是一篇看图作文，我们可以分四步来写这个故事。
第一步：确定体裁。通过认真阅读所给的文字说明及画面，我们可以确定，命题者是要我们写一篇记叙文。
第二步：确定主题。确定主题的时候，我们应全面细致地观察每一幅画面，对每一幅画中的人物、情景进行仔细的分析，从而获得全面准确的信息，而后对这些信息进行处理加工，最终得出作文的主题。通过第一步我们已经知道第一幅图说明的是：我在放学回家的路上捡到了一个钱包。第二幅图说明的是：我打开钱包，发现里面有许多钱和一张名片。第三幅图：通过名片，我知道了失主联系方式。我马上用公共电话给失主打电话。第四幅图：我在公共汽车站等候失主前来认领钱包。第五幅图：失主来了，我交还了钱包。第六幅图：失主拿出钱来酬谢我，我婉言谢绝。通过对这六幅图进行分析研究，我们可以得到以下信息：出题者提供给我们六幅图，让我们以第一人称叙述自己放学回家的途中捡到钱包，拾金不昧，主动把钱包还给失主的故事。
第三步：编写提纲。看图写作的时候，我们可以编写一份提纲，也可以打个腹稿，无论是编写提纲还是打腹稿，一定要注意内容切题、要点齐全。
第四步：连句成篇。用适当的连词把每幅图的内容联系起来，了使要点之间衔接得更紧密，在适当的地方，可以进行合理的想象。
写作的时候，还应当注意语言规范，时态正确，表达准确。尽量选择自己最有把握的表达方式，要注意各种句式灵活搭配应用,正确使用标点符号。
