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.

内容分析
该单元的主题是青少年生活（Teenage Life），旨在展现青少年校内外生活的方方面面，向用此教材的青少年们传达健康、向上的学习和生活方式。在高中生活的起始阶段，将“选择学校社团（Choose a School Club）”这一话题置于该单元教学内容的第一部分能激发学生的兴趣、引发共鸣。同时，通过这部分的教学活动学生将了解一些学校社团的基本活动，并能够从不同的思维角度把握社团选择、提出合理建议，对学生具有实际的指导意义。
该部分的教学内容是Listening and Speaking, 重点放在Listening上。活动一呈现了四个学校社团，芭蕾舞社、自然科学社、志愿者协会及辩论社，与之匹配的图片展现了各个社团典型的活动。听力文本包含两个部分。第一部分（活动二）是分别发生在科学社团和辩论社的两则师生间的对话，呈现了这两个社团的活动场面。第二部分（活动三）是发生在两位高中生Adam与Julie之间的对话，他们探讨了四个社团的不同活动及Adam的兴趣爱好，为Adam选择适合他的社团作铺垫。活动四的口语表达部分则是在听力的基础上要求学生帮助同伴选择合适的学校社团。
学情分析
本课授课对象为高一学生。高一学生在知识储备上对学校社团的话题比较熟悉，在语言能力上已经有了较好的词汇基础，对听说活动并不陌生，但这个阶段的学生普遍缺乏使用听力技能和策略的意识，也疏于口语表达的练习。

用英语表达一系列学校社团名称及其主要活动，明确选择社团的基本依据是个人喜好；
通过阅读听力问题与选择，预测文本主题，掌握听前预测策略，理解听力文本；
3. 结合主题口头表达自己的喜好并互相帮助选择合适的学校社团。
