The participants of the present study were 35 high school students enrolled in one of the private schools in China. The "Discovery Plus" program offers students the opportunity to select their favourite optional courses each semester. In total, 62 students registered for EngERs, 35 of whom were then randomly selected to participate in the intervention. All participants had attended the Tianjin Senior High School Entrance Examination, with an average English score of around 93 out of 120, ranging from 72 to 104. Among them, 15 were males and 20 were females. Participants (N=21) were from Grade 10 (first-year students at senior high school), and the remaining participants (N=14) were from Grade 11 (second-year students at senior high school). Students from Grade 12 were absent from the present study because they were preparing for the College Entrance Examination in China.
