During the break time, we enjoyed a song called “We are the world”. It is a great song about charity. just as we all know, there are many unlucky people in the world, such as the deaf, the blind, the homeless, the poor, the disabled and so on. But in some ways, they are lucky because some people are helping them all the time. Who are they? They are volunteers from international charities. In last period, we learnt some names, Do you still remember them? I will show some logos, pls tell me their names and what they do .
3.
T: This is… S1: It’s UNICEF. It helps…
T: What’s this? S2: It’s WWF. It helps…
T: How about this one? S3: It’s Oxfam. It helps…
T: The last one is…
S4: It’s ORBIS. It helps…
T: Yes, you’re right. ORBIS mainly helps those people who are blind or have eye problems. Can you imagine what life is like for those blind people?
4
. Maybe you can’t. but today I’d like to give you a chance to have a try. Look, I have an eye patch here. Who wants to come here to experience blind people’s life.
You just need to walk for 5 meters, then turn around and come back here. Take it easy. I will help you if necessary, Ok?
Now I want to interview him, what do you think of being blind ? How do you feel?
Yes, I think our easy life is quite difficult for the blind. Luckily, ORBIS helps them a lot. Do you want to know something about ORBIS
5
First, I’d like to introduce the logo of ORBIS. Take a close look at it, What does the logo look like?.Why does this charity use an eye as its logo ? Why is there a plane in the logo?
6
. Look, this is the ORBIS plane we can see at the airport.
Is this the plane like the one we take from SH to BJ? Of course not.
There is a special hospital in the plane. So we give it a special name, that is a flying eye hospital. Do you want to go into it and learn more.
7
Today an ORBIS doctor named Dr Ma will tell us something about the special plane,
Let’s read his interview. As we know, interview is made up of “inter” and ”view”, inter means between each other, and view means ideas, so interview means changing ideas between each other, it is often in the way of asking and answering questions.
8
So Before reading the interview, let’s make a prediction. If you’re the interviewer, what questions would you like to ask? For me, I will ask, “What do you do in ORBIS, doctor?” What are your questions? Please work in groups and discuss with your partners. Each group should ask at least one question, ok? Good. I think all of your questions are reasonable. Now let’s read this interview to check if you think the same as the interviewer and find answers to your questions.
9
Pls read the passage on your own quickly.
T: How many questions are there in the interview?
T: What are they? Please read them out.
T: now let’s try to find out the answers. The first one… yes, we can find it in line 1 to 6,
T: Actually thse two paragraphs answer the same thing. So we can put them together as one part. And there is still one part left. What’s it?
Ss: Line1 to Line 6.
10
.T: Yes. Now we have divided this passage into 4 parts. Here is the main idea of each part. But they are not in order. Please look through the passage and match them.
Here is a new word “blindness” what’s its meaning. You can choose one meaning in the bb to explain “blindness”.
T: I think we have made it very clear about structure of the interview. The next step for us is to read each part carefully to find more information.
11
. T: First, let’s look at part1. please read it freely and loudly. You need to fill in some blanks after reading.
Now I read as the interviewer, you read as dr Ma. Let's have a try.
Now let me check your understanding. Shall we read it again to consolidate.here is a new word “cure”, who can paraphrase it?
In this part, we need to pay special attention in the numbers. When we do reading ,number always plays an important roles. For example,
12Here is a passage about the history of ORBIS. Look at the question, it asks ORBIS flying eye hospital has a history of ____ we can predict the answer must be a number about years, we can go through the passsage, and find out two sentences about it. Pls read them quickly and tell me your answer. Here, it asks about the ORBIS or the ORBIS hospital?
13T: After reading part1, we’ve known that many people face eye problems in the world. So a charity called ORBIS appeared. But how does it help?and why don't they work in a hospital? You can read part2 and find it. Boys, you ask, girls, you answer. please read in roles. Ok?
. T: Why don’t they work in the hospital？
S: …
T: Yes. Because many of the patients can’t afford to go to hospital. Who can explain afford?
What's the meaning of patients? We can guess form the context. Let’s look at the phrase “go to hospital”. Who will go to hospital?
I’d like to give you another reading tip. That is guessing the meaning from context.
14
Here is an example. You need to guess the meaning of “take off”. Pls pay attention to the subject of the sentence, that is “the flying eye hospital”, you know that is the ORBIS plane. As for a plane. the answer is either B or D. and read it again , can you give me the answer.
15
Just as we discussed, actually, ORBIS is a hospital on a plane. what do doctors do on it? They do operation, we can also say “they operate” so operate means .
A bit horrible.
Is it only used as a hospital? Of course not. What else is it used as?
T: Good. We are clear about the work of ORBIS in two ways.
T: Now can you fill in the blanks in part B2. I think one min is enough for you.
Ss: …
17
T: Good job. here an ORBIS doctor---Dr Ma told us his experience in ORBIS. Look at part3 and answer the question, “How many operations did he do during his last visit?” I wanna to ask one pair to read for us, ok?
T: So the interviewer says Dr Ma’s work is …
T: And Dr Ma himself feel…
This two adjectives show the feelings of the people. So when we do the reading, we can get the idea or the feeling of the writer from the adjectives.
18.
T: Now Dr Ma also has something more to tell us. Please read after*** and answer two questions here.
T: Question one “What does Dr Ma hope?” and question two “What do we do to help ORBIS?”
S: …
T: What do they need? So we can…
19.
T: Ok. After learning each part carefully, it’s easy for you to put some sentences together. Pls look at part B3. match the two parts
First, you can check your answers in groups. Then I’ll invite one group to present their answers.
20.
Now let’s make a summary about the work of ORBIS. Pls finish part B4 in two mins. You need to pay attention to the forms of the words.
T: (After some time) If you meet some difficulties, you can discuss the difficult blanks with your partners.
T: Now it’s your show time. Please introduce the work of ORBIS to the public. You can use the words above as a help.
Let’s read the summary together to consolidate.
22.
till now, we have known a lot about ORBIS and DR ma’s work. He hopes more people will support them. Because there is an old sauying –only many hands make light work. But how can we support? I think the easiest way is to donate some money. What’s your ides? You can have a further discussion in groups. I hope to hear more valuable advice.
23.
now I’m very proud because all of you have a warm heart. You know giving is better than receiving. Now i want to tell you more. The world is not only beautiful but also wonderful. The world is beau
I hope our world will be better and better because of you, my dear students.
That’s all for this lesson. Class is over.

The history of ORBIS International began in the 1970s. At that time, Dr David Paton from the USA visited many developing countries. He found that the high costs prevented most doctors and nurses in these areas from receiving international medical training programmes.

Besides the flying eye hospital, ORBIS has also set up offices in some developing countries. In many other countries, ORBIS works together with local hospitals and provides one-week-long training programmes.
