Pronunciation and speaking
Do you agree with the following opinions
Give your reasons. ( P57 Activity 6 )
1. Teahouse is one of the greatest plays in China.
2. Everyone should learn some Tang poems.
3. We should only read books by great writers.
I accept…
I agree / don’t agree with…
I suppose…
I think…
I accept that Teahouse is one of the greatest plays in China. Teahouse is one of Lao She’s most famous plays. He wrote it in 1957. The play has three acts and shows the lives of common people in China from the end of the nineteenth century to the middle of the twentieth century. It tells us the story Wang Lifa and the customers of his teahouse in Beijing. It describes the changes in Chinese society over fifty years. So, I suppose Teahouse is one of the greatest plays in China.
