Lead-in
Which country is this
New Zealand
What do you know about New Zealand
What do you know about New Zealand
I know that New Zealand is a beautiful island nation southeast of Australia, and it was the location where Lord of the Rings was filmed.
1 What do you know about New Zealand Do some research to find out more about the following. Which attracts you the most
the Bay of Islands
the haka
a kiwi bird
a geyser
a sulphuric pool
manuka honey
bungee jumping
a flock of sheep
Which picture would you like to know more about
One of New Zealand’s favourite travel destinations
plenty to see and do: cruises, sailing, swimming, diving, deep sea fishing, hiking, camping
variety of marine life, including dolphins, whales, and penguins
early European settlement and Maori culture
the Bay of Islands
A ceremonial dance performed by the Maori people
can be performed by both men and women
to get ready for war and to develop team spirit
the haka
kiwi bird: An icon of New Zealand
nearly blind, flightless bird
usually comes out only at night
endangered species, vulnerable and threatened
geyser: a natural hot spring
forms when pressure builds up beneath the ground, causing an eruption of hot water and steam
known as a geothermal system (near volcanoes)
sulphuric pool: Sometimes found in the same area as geysers
a landscape bathed in steam, with powerful geysers shooting steam into the air, vividly coloured sulphuric pools, and bubbling mud
manuka honey: Made from the manuka plant
quite thick and dark, and slightly bitter
在新西兰和澳大利亚新南威尔士北部的山坡、沿海地区、森林边缘，生有一种叫做麦卢卡【也称曼努卡】（manuka）的红茶树。每逢初夏，它盛开的花朵会引得成群的蜜蜂来蜜源采集花蜜，以酿造独具特色的麦卢卡蜂蜜。
bungee jumping
Originated with an ancient adult initiation ceremony
people jumped off a high platform with vines attached to their feet as a test for their courage and passage into manhood.
Alan John Hackett, opened up the first commercial bungee jumping site at the Kawarau Gorge Suspension Bridge in New Zealand.
sheep
First introduced to New Zealand in the late 18th century
sheep farming became the main industry in New Zealand.
I know that New Zealand is a beautiful island nation southeast of Australia, and it was the location where Lord of the Rings was filmed. I suppose among the photos, the haka attracts me most and I would love to go to New Zealand to discover more about Maori culture.

Are the three people talking about New Zealand from the same perspective Find examples in your notes.
No. From the programme, we know that Dave’s choice is the Bay of Islands. As a business journalist, he paid more attention to economic benefits; Felicity, as an editor of World Nature magazine, paid more attention to the uniqueness (独特性) of the scenery; Jane, as a writer of the Fantastic Life blog, paid more attention to multi-cultural aspects.
How do our careers affect our thinking and talking
People of different careers have different characteristics. For example, when we talk about new media, we usually think of quick thinking and quick reaction. Therefore, people in different industries have their own professional characteristics in their concerns and ways of looking at problems.

4 How do the speakers sum up their opinions Complete their sentences with the words you hear.
When people talk about the same subject for a long time, they often end by stating the main point of their talk. Such summaries often begin with phrases such as In summary, To sum up, All in all, In short, and so on.

Hello, I’m William Wood, the host of Amazing New Zealand. Today, we’re going to talk about what can best represent New Zealand. We’ll start with business journalist Dave Edmonds. Dave, what’s your pick
My vote has to be the Bay of Islands. It’s one of the most beautiful places you’ll find in New Zealand. There are boat cruises or hiking tours to explore the small towns and their rich history, as well as tours to observe and experience Maori culture. You will be astonished to see the haka on site. But, of course, it’s the beaches and water activities that make the Bay of Islands such a popular tourist destination. And there’s plenty of great wildlife to see along the beaches — penguins, whales, dolphins ... All in all, the Bay of Islands is really what best represents New Zealand.
William:
Dave:
Felicity:
Yes, Dave. I think the Bay of Islands is a great place too, but I have a different place in mind.
Folks, this is Felicity James, editor of World Nature magazine. Felicity
William:
Thanks, William. In my opinion, the places that best represent New Zealand are the geothermal parks, such as in the North Island area. The hot springs, geysers, bubbling mud, and sulphuric pools make that area one of the most amazing places you’ll ever see. The scenery there is truly unique to New Zealand.
Also, here with us is Jane Smith, writer of the Fantastic Life blog. Jane, what do you think
Felicity:
William:
Jane:
Well, I wouldn’t choose a particular place. I think that if someone left New Zealand without seeing a kiwi bird or a flock of sheep, they haven’t truly experienced the country. What I’m trying to say is that what best represents New Zealand is not necessarily a place, but rather the experiences you get there. Try some manuka honey. See the haka. Go bungee jumping! In short, I would like to suggest that tourists not just visit iconic places in New Zealand — they should experience its culture.

What best represents China
Today, I’d like to introduce you to Beijing, which is a leading cultural, economic, and historical centre in China. Some of its attractions include the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven, the Summer Palace, and of course, the Great Wall. Beijing is celebrated around the world for the Peking Opera, and one of China’s most iconic foods, Peking Duck. It features many old neighbourhoods, called hutongs, where you can see how people have lived for hundreds of years. Of course, you can also enjoy modern architecture, such as the “Bird’s Nest”. All in all, if you can only visit one place in China, Beijing is the place to go.
Make up an interview about what best represents China, using the common knowledge expressions.
