What do you think can best represent a place
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 is one of New Zealand's most spectacular destinations to visit year round. Its sheltered waters make it the perfect place to view a variety of marine life, including dolphins, whales and seals.
Regarded as the birthplace of New Zealand, the region affords a unique insight into early European settlement and Māori culture, making a visit to the Bay a must-do on any New Zealand itinerary.

the haka
The haka is a type of ceremonial Māori dance or challenge. Haka are usually performed in a group and typically represent a display of a tribe's pride, strength and unity. Actions include foot-stamping, tongue protrusions and rhythmic body slapping to accompany a loud chant. The words of a haka often poetically describe ancestors and events in the tribe's history.
The kiwi lives only in New Zealand. It is a very strange bird because it cannot fly. A kiwi is the same size as a chicken. It has no wings or tails. It doesn't have any feathers like other birds.
Each foot has four toes. A kiwi likes a lot of trees around it. It sleeps during the day because the sunlight hurts its eyes. It can smell things with its nose. There is a picture of a kiwi on New Zealand money.

The spouting action is caused by the sudden release of pressure. As steam or gas bubbles begin to form in the conduit, hot water spills from the vent of the geyser, and the pressure is lowered on the water column below.
Geysers result from the heating of groundwater by shallow bodies of magma. They are generally associated with areas that have seen past volcanic activity.
a geyser
Rotorua is the smelliest city in New Zealand and is caused by the sulphuric hot springs and geysers littered all around the region. Despite the smell, you couldn't believe how touristy a city like this was with the many hotels, motels, eateries, fast internet, etc all along the main road.
a sulphuric pool
Manuka honey is one of nature's special gifts. Sourced from some of New Zealand's most pure and remote locations, it is renowned for its unique flavour. Manuka Honey is recognised worldwide for its unique properties not found in ordinary honey.

It is an activity that involves jumping from a tall structure while connected to a large elastic cord. The tall structure is usually a fixed object, such as a building, bridge or crane; but it is also possible to jump from a movable object, such as a hot-air-balloon or helicopter, that has the ability to hover above the ground. The thrill comes as much from the free-falling as from the rebounds.
bungee jumping
Sheepworld is New Zealand's premier showcase for sheep and wool production, just 45 minutes north of Auckland. Sheepworld is educational and fun for visitors of all ages and nationalities, and is great whatever the weather.

the Bay of Islands:
one of the most beautiful places in New Zealand; has boat cruises, hiking tours, tours to observe and experience Maori culture;
beaches and water activities; plenty of great wildlife-penguins, whales, dolphins.
the geothermal parks:
hot springs, geysers, bubbling mud, and sulphuric pools make that area one of the most amazing places.
the New Zealand experience:

4 .How do the speakers sum up their opinions

All in all
In my opinion
In short
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.
Sum up
5. In groups, discuss what best represents China. Brainstorm the following topics and take notes.
the cultural centre
the centre(s) of various cuisines
the best place to see nature
the most diverse region
the economic centre
the music centre
the best place to experience history
the place with the best quality of life
the cultural centre
Beijing is the capital city as well as cultural centre of China. Beijing has a profound culture, containing the cultural heritage of 5,000 history of China, absorbing the exploding knowledge of the current society, and foretelling the scenarios of the future development.
the centre(s) of various cuisines
China covers a large territory and has many nationalities, hence a variety of Chinese food with different but fantastic and mouthwatering flavor. Since China's local dishes have their own typical characteristics, generally, Chinese food can be roughly divided into eight regional cuisines, which has been widely accepted around. Certainly, there are many other local cuisines that are famous, such as Beijing Cuisine and Shanghai Cuisine.
the economic centre
Shanghai is mainland China's commercial capital and one of the most populous cities. Alongside Beijing, Chongqing, and Tianjin, it is one of the four municipalities directly controlled by the central government.
the most diverse region
Located in a sub-tropical maritime region, Shenzhen is visited by typhoons three or four times a year but most of the time it enjoys sunny days and gentle sea winds with an average temperature of around 22.4℃ year-round.
Overseas Chinese Town has a special appeal with its theme parks called Splendid China, Chinese Folk Culture Village, Window of the World and Happy Valley. Most of them are miniature landscapes that mirror the most famous architectures in the world and in China.
the music centre
Harbin, famous for its Russian influence, is also known as “China's Music City” and regularly holds world-renowned cultural events.
the best place to experience history
The Terracotta Warriors and Horses is the most significant historical and cultural site, which is around 1.5 kilometers east of Emperor Qin Shi Huang's mausoleum in Lintong, Xi'an, Shaanxi Province.
the place with the best quality of life
Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan province, has been recognized as “ the land of abundance” for a long time. With rich cultural heritage, Chengdu is one of the most popular destinations for tourists in China.
People who once step onto the land of Chengdu city will quickly fall in love with the life there. It seems that Chengdu people are living a happy life with less pressure from their occupation, family or from the social competition.

William: 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
Dave: 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.
Felicity: Yes,Dave.I think the Bay of Islands is a great place too, but I have a different place in mind.
William: Folks,this is Felicity James,editor of World Nature magazine.Felicity
Felicity: 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.
William: Also, here with us is Jane Smith, writer of the Fantastic Life blog. Jane, what do you think
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.
Make up a dialogue about the best represents a place with your partner. using the common knowledge expressions.
Never underestimate your power to change yourself.
永远不要低估你改变自我的能力。
