Today is the first class of our new February four class set. We will begin class with unit 27 in our grammar book. 

                        The phrase of the week is, "reading between the lines." We use this phrase to describe hidden meanings. For example, "My boss told me I could take the day off but after reading between the line, I think she was a little disappointed."

                         Today's reading is about foreign investment in China. The listening material is about overconfidence.  Please listen for and create examples for the vocabulary words.
