Post reading Think and share
Read the sentences from the passage and decide if they are facts(F) or opinions(O).
1. Surely, if you are old enough to earn a wage and pay taxes, you should be allowed to have a say on how the government spends them! O
2.... I will be taking my driving test on the very day I turn 18. F When I woke up the next day, there were still rules to obey and lessons to attend. F I guess some responsibilities are more about attitude than age. O

Suggested answers:
(1)O; (2)F; (3)F; (4)O
Fact:指的是可以被证实、客观存在的真实情况,它不依赖于个人的想法、感受或信仰而改变,通常基于观察、测量、记录等方式来确定其真实性。
Opinion: 多以表达个人想法的词汇或句式开头,像I think...(我认为……),In my opinion...(在我看来……)I believe...(我相信……)From my perspective...(从我的角度来看……)” 等,语言带有明显的主观倾向和个人判断意味。 Suggested answers:
(1) No, because their life experiences are different.Their understandings will change as life continues. (2) Being an adult is a complex combination of taking on responsibilities, enjoying independence, and demonstrating maturity in various aspects of life. (3) 1 think it's sensible. Many young people are not mature to make wise decision when facing danger.Most time, they don't have the ability to take relative responsibilities either. In these situations, a minimum age can provide a safer growing atmosphere for young people and more chance for them to avoid getting into trouble.
设计意图 This activity belongs to the category of transfer and innovation activities. It aims to promote students' in-depth understanding of the meaning of adulthood by thinking about and answering the questions in "Think and Share". It helps students realize that everyone's growth experiences have influenced their understanding of adulthood. Adulthood means having the freedom to choose, enjoying rights, shouldering obligations, avoiding risks, resisting temptations and so on. Students are encouraged to combine their own actual situations for self-reflection and personal growth.
Homework Plan A: What will you do at 18 Try to write a short passage about your understanding of being an adult.
Plan B: There is a movie called“18岁,18天”,watch it in your spare time and share your understanding with us in the next class.
