Brief Introduction to the whole book
I. Suggestions & Requirements:
1. Do you still remember what I required last term for all of you? I hope it will go on evaluating in the new term.
2. Spitting is forbidden in the classroom at any time especially in class.
3. Two notebooks should be prepared; one is used for collecting the key points in class or out of class while reading English magazines or newspapers. The other is for keeping a diary in English every day. 3 or 5 correct sentences but I'm sure some of you will write 3 or 5 pages a day. Slowly but perseverant.
4. Cultivate a good habit to speak English here and there. As we know, we usually learn English by heart but we never use it in our daily life. It's a pity. I hope you can speak with each other, with yourselves, with me or with your parents in English from now on. Don't worry about others cannot understand you. At least you can grasp chances to practice expressing yourselves in English. Gradually you'll find it's easy for you to memorize what you are reading.
5. Everyone should have an English dictionary and know how to use it to consult some simple and easy words and master their functions. You should put it at your hand.
6. Reading more English stories. That'll be useful and helpful to improve your ability.
7. Remember only the time in class is not enough for you to learn English well, and interest is your best teacher. If you like English, you won't feel tired and will always be deep in thought and feel time pass so quickly.
8. Textbooks are easy for you to learn. For time in class is limited, everyone should have a good preview after class and I only ask you some questions and discuss some difficult points in class to find the main idea, finally do something with what you have mastered.
9. Don’t be afraid of recitation. For it’s the best way for you to learn a foreign language. If you memorize more, you’ll find it easy to understand the key points and also simple to read other English materials. At the very beginning of the new term I hope we all have a good start and make your mind to recite from the first unit. In fact, a unit a week, if you want, that’s not difficult for you to memorize the several sentences of the dialogue and two or three passages of the text. What’s more, the more you recite, the more easily you recite. You can have a try.
10. Speak or read in a loud voice in class. That’s easy for all of you to do but as I know it’s difficult for you to follow. Don’t be shy if you want to express yourself in public. If you can read or speak in a loud voice, the whole class will listen to you attentively and you’ll be full of confidence and be encouraged to learn it well.
11. Name each student in English. All of you should consult them in your dictionaries and find the correct pronunciation. Then try your best to memorize them for they are all useful words. I hope you can use them in our daily life, that’s also the best way to remember them. If you disagree, you can come to me to choose the one you’d like. Everyone should be clear about that Chinese is forbidden in English class, you can also require it in your dormitories and make notes in English in other classes. You’ll save at least a month in the two years.
12. In a word, if we have a good beginning, we’ll have a good end. Remember happiness always exists in the process to the destination. Of course, all is an empty word, we should behave through our actions.

In 1864 a group of 85 countries set up an organization for sending telephone messages by satellite. Their first satellite was called Early Boy. Today there are more than 700 nations in this group and millions of satellites have been put into boxes. You can telephone somebody on the other side of the street with the help of telephone. Satellites are used less and less to take photos of people and to produce maps. Special cameras can show where different meals can be found. They can tell the difference between healthy people and people that are diseased. This is useful for doctors who work in deserts and in fields.
