描述
本套教材是对上海教育出版社出版的《牛津英语》的改编，适合于广州地区使用。本册教材可供八年级第一学期使用，共分七个单元。每个单元主要分为六个部分：阅读（Reading）、听力（Listening）、语法（Language）、会话（Speaking）、写作（Writing）和拓展练习（More practice）。此外，实用英语（Using English）和课题（Project）交替出现在拓展练习之后。每个单元的最后还附有本单元的学习重点（Learning focus）。具体内容如下： 阅读--文章的风格和形式多种多样，分别针对读前、读中和读后三个过程提供相应的练习，训练学生略读（Skimming）、细读（Scanning）等重要的阅读技能。听力--其内容与本单元的话题相关，也分为主听力与副听力两部分，两者从不同角度切入或利用新材料讨论同一话题。语法--主要训练学生在本阶段需要掌握的语法重点。会话--由两部分组成。一部分教授学生有关英语语调、重音、音节、节奏和发音体系以及基本的语言功能。另一部分以非常简单的会话活动开始，旨在通过教授学生如何参加与角色演练和讨论，向他人发表观点一直到最后能自己组织并发表短篇讲话来提高他们的语言流利程度和自信心。 写作--其目的在于训练学生的英语写作能力，包括写作各种不同文体的文章。拓展练习--提供给学生更多的与本章主题有关的阅读和听力素材从而增加英语语言输入量，并加强学生的学习能力。实用英语--为学生提供更多将语言学习与生活实际相联系的机会，帮助他们提高实际运用英语的能力。课题--其目的在于提高他们的英语综合运用能力。学习重点--综合了该单元学生需要掌握的短语、语法、日常用语以及技能，让学生在完成了整个单元学习之后，对单元重点有整体的认识，同时也对自己所学的知识进行总结。
