See the 7 pictures one by one and brainstorm the possible words to describe the feelings showed in the picture. Lead in by experiencing the fact that facial expressions can pass on feeling.
2 1st-round listening （1遍听tone，猜feeling） *Play recording of the 4 short poems *Ask students to close their eyes and focus on the tones. Be aware of the tone and try to match the tones with the 7 feelings. Expand awareness of speaking tones can also pass on feelings
3 2nd-round listening （2遍听content，检测feeling选择） *Play recording of the 4 short poems for a second time *Ask students to focus on the content Be aware of the speaking content and check whether the guess of the feeling from the tones are matched. Confirm tones and content can be two different streams expressing one particular feeling.
4 3rd-round listening （配合录音文本，圈出rhymes，点出加强feeling） *Play recording of the 4 short poems *Also display the transcript of the 4 poems. Based on the transcript, circle the words, which have the same stress pattern and form the rhyme (stress pattern repetition), while listening.
