Step 1 Revision
Read the text on page 38-39 quickly and underline the sentences with v-ing.
Having seen quite a few productions of Hamlet and read the play many times, I was full of confidence - until the Peking Opera came to town!
Dating back to the 18th century, Peking Opera has over two hundred years of history.
Starting with an orchestra playing traditional Chinese instruments, the opera brought a completely new sound to my Western ears.
Using such techniques, the opera had transformed a small stage into the whole universe.
Feeling the strong emotions of love, anger, fear and grief in the performance, I could easily recognise the theme of Hamlet.
T asks Ss to understand these sentences better, think of the function of v-ing in each sentence.

Answers:
I went to watch the ballet The Peony Pavilion last night. Having thought ballet was more or less the same everywhere, I was totally unprepared for its unique beauty. As soon as the curtain rose, I was absorbed. Borrowing a lot from Chinese dance and music, the Eastern influence on the ballet was clear. The production was full of colours and romantic symbols, challenging my senses in new ways. Enjoying it so much, I have changed my opinion about ballet. I can't wait to go again!
