Ⅳ. 任务型阅读(主题:人与自我·学校生活)
In Chiang Mai, Thailand, middle school students have a colourful school life full of fun. Their learning is usually connected with local culture—especially with elephants. They don't just learn subjects such as Maths and English. They have some special courses that mix their study with real life.
One popular course is Thai dance. In the class, students wear bright traditional clothes and learn gentle moves to soft music. Another meaningful course is Elephant Education and Protection. Some schools work with nearby sanctuaries(保护区). Students don't just read about elephants—they visit, learn how to feed them healthy food like bananas and sugar cane, and clean their living areas. Teachers also talk about why elephants need protection and how students can help.
After class, they join in activities like Sepak takraw(藤球) or join the Art Club. Sometimes, they even make crafts with recycled materials to raise money for elephant sanctuaries.
In this way, students not only can gain knowledge, but also can love their culture and protect nature.
