老师：Hello everyone, my name is Zhang Xin from Beijing No. 4 High School, Fangshan Campus. Today we are going to learn Unit 1, a new start, Lesson 3, using language, listening and speaking. By the end of this class, you will be able to get the specific information while listening, form the habit of recording key information while listening, sum up ways to manage time well, and make a thorough and reasonable plan and express it.
老师：After last class, you may have already known some skill clubs and signed up for one or two in your school. What do you know about the after school activities in the UK and the US? What benefits do they have? Please read, did you know on page seven and share your ideas with your partner. In the UK and US, senior high school students take part in various after school activities. Besides club activities, there's also voluntary work. These activities not only help students gain more skills, but also teach students to care about others. After school activities also play a part when students apply to college. This is also true in China, as we know the extracurricular activities in the UK and the US, as well as their benefits.
老师：Do you want to know more? Now let's listen to the conversation and decide what the speakers are mainly talking about. Number one, the clubs they have joined and the activities they do after school. Or number two, the things they should do to manage their time well. Or number three, the challenges they face in their new school.
学生：Hi, Bruno. How are you finding life at Senior High?
学生：Oh, hi, Maisie. Well, it's okay. I guess the one problem is that I just don't seem to have enough time for everything. There are basketball games, the music club, the school party.
学生：Wow, you've got a lot on. But it's more or less the same for me. And I find I always forget something.
学生：Me too. We need to do something about it. My father told me that I should make a to do list. What do you think?
学生：It's a good idea to list the things we're going to do.
学生：And how about recording the time it takes to do the activities? We can then see what takes up most of our time and make better plans. What's your opinion? Great.
学生：Idea. And I've got two more ideas. Number one, only do one thing at a time. That way you'll get things done more quickly. For example, if you do your homework while watching TV, it will just take longer to finish your homework. Number two, do important things first.
学生：Nice ideas.
学生：How about we try all of them for a week and see if things get better? Hi, Bruno. How are you finding life at Senior High?
学生：Oh, hi, Maisie. Well, it's okay. I guess the one problem is that I just don't seem to have enough time for everything. There are basketball games, the music club, the school party.
