UNIT8课文 English:fun for life 第115页 English Week at Rosie Bridge School
Last week, students at Rosie Bridge School worked hard to make their English Week a big success.
There was an English book fair in the library and a treasure hunt. Some students put on an English play. Other students took part in an English singing competition.
There was also a speaking competition. The students had to speak on a topic in English for two minutes.
We spoke to the winner, Henry. “I’m so happy that I won,” he said. “I advise people to speak slowly. If they want to be good public speakers, they’d better speak clearly and confidently.”
We also spoke to several other students about English Week. One of them was Amy.
“I really enjoyed English Week. It gave me a chance to learn new words. In my opinion, every school should have an English Week. It’s well worth doing,” she said.
On the last day of English Week, the head teacher gave a speech to the whole school. He gave students some suggestions on how to improve their English. “You should communicate in English with your friends whenever you can . You should read English books and magazines, and watch English television programmes. Above all, you should enjoy English!” he said.
