Reading
Ⅰ. Read the student profiles and discuss the questions.
1. What is Ann like How do you know
2. What does “You’ll never see me without a book or a pen” mean
3. Which profile do you like better Why
She is active and curious. We know this from the second, third, and fourth sentences.
It means he nearly always has a book or pen with him, because he likes to study.
I like the second profile better, because he paints a clearer picture of what kind of person he is. The first profile mostly contains lists.
Ⅱ. Study the organisation and language features.
1. A student profile can include the following parts. Fill in each part with the information from the student profiles.
A. Name, age, grade, school
B. Personality
C. Favourite subject
D. Learning style
E. Hobbies
