重 点 句 子 1. I know you’re dying to hear all about my life here. Page 292. I’ve included some photos which will help you picture the places I talk about. Page 293. When I reach the school grounds there are lots of “good mornings” for me from the boys, many of whom have walked a long way, sometimes up to two hours, to get to the school. Page 294. I’m still trying to adapt to these conditions but, one thing is for sure, I’ve become a lot more imaginative in my teaching. Page 295. The other day I was showing the boys a chemistry experiment --- before I knew it, the mixture was bubbling over every where. Page 296. Sometimes I wonder how relevant chemistry is to the kids, most of whom will be going back to their villages after Year 8. Page 297. But last weekend another teacher, Jenny, and I did visit a village that was the home of one of the boys, Tombe. Page 298. We walked for two and a half hours to get there --- first up a mountain to a ridge from where we had fantastic views and then down a steep slope to the valley below. Page 299. When we arrived at the village, Tombe’s mother, Kiak, who had been working in her garden, started crying “ieee ieee”. Page 2910. Tombe’s father, Mukap, led us to his house, a low bamboo hut with grass sticking out of the roof --- this shows it’s a man’s house. Page 2911. The only possessions that I could see were a few tin plates and cups and a couple of pots. Page 3012. Muap and Tombe were to sleep on small beds in another part of the hut. Page 3013. When hot, he placed them in an empty oil drum with kau kau (sweet potato), corn and greens. Page 3014. The gift you give is not something your loved one keeps but a contribution towards the lives of people who really need it. Page 3315. To let you know that I am thinking of you, I have purchased a gift from the World’s Most Useful Gift Catalogue for you to give to some of the world’s poorest. Page 3316. The gift will train a whole village of around 40 families in India, Kenya, or Bangladesh in new agricultural methods, and provide seeds and simple agricultural equipment. Page 33

Step I Warming Up
1. Greetings
T: Good morning /afternoon everyone!
Ss: Good morning /afternoon, Sir/ Madam!
T: Have you ever helped others What did you do to help your parents Or other relatives Or your friends Or people in your community Or people outside your community I’m sure you have a lot to say. Ok, let divide into groups of three and finish the survey form. Then in groups, discuss whether someone who helps the groups on the survey form can be called a “volunteer”.
Suggested answers:
What do you do to help… Name: Tom Name: Helen Name: Mary
1. your parents Clean the floor Wash dishes Prepare supper
2. other relatives Lend my books and CDs to them Take care of my cousin while his parents are away Comfort them when they are sad
3. your friends Repair their computers Help them with the lessons Accompany them to do shopping
4. people in your community Be a coach of the football lovers Sing and dance for the elders Help my neighbours carry things home
5. people outside your community Plant trees Help people with disabilities Return the wallet to the loser
T: Which one can be called a volunteer Or what kind of things do volunteers do
S: Volunteer work includes: Be a coach of the football lovers, plant trees, help people with disabilities.
T: Correct. Only those who don’t work not for rewards – especially money and materials, and not forced to do so are volunteers. And not only the person but also the society and the environment benefit from it. For example, Dr Mary Murray was a volunteer with Medecins Sans Frontieres(MSF). Now turn to Page 35, read Exercises 1 and 2, and predict what you will hear in the listening material. You can also discuss with your partner.
Sa: Now Jennifer Wells is interviewing Dr Mary Murray about what has happened in Mary’s life.
Sb: She once worked in a clinic in Malawi and Sudan.
Sc: Malawi and Sudan are developing countries.
Sd: Many children died when she worked in Malawi.
Se: Conditions in the clinics in the Sudan were very terrible and challenging.
Sf: Medecins Sans Frontieres(MSF) is an organization that provide free medical care to children in poor countries.
T: Very good. You see, even without listening to the dialogue you can get much information, if you study the questions carefully. Now let’s listen to their dialogue. You will pay attention to the time expressions and number them in the order you hear them. (Show the 11 time expressions on Page 35). And also you will answer as many of the questions in Exercise 2 as you can.
Step II Listening(I)
(The teacher plays the tape and the students listen to it.)
T: Now let’s check the answers of Exercise 1 and 2.
(The students will answer the questions)
T: Now let’s listen to the dialogue for a second time. When you are listening, you can check the answers of Exercise 2 and finish Exercises 3 and 4. Learn to make notes about Mary’s experiences in the table on Page 35. And share your notes with your partner and then with other groups.
(The students will makes notes, and share their notes.)
T: Ok, let’s listen to it for a third time to check the notes.
Step III Listening(II)
T: Perhaps you may wonder, because we are students, what we can do to help. That is, what can we do to serve communities outside the school Ok, let do LISTENING in the workbook on Page 70. You are also required to predict what you will hear, according to the four questions.
Sa: There are three characters in the material: Jason, Mick and Annie.
Sb: They want to raise money to help.
Sc: Perhaps they will help children in hospital, or serve soup to the homeless, or protect the environment.
Sd: They will spend some time working for their school’s Community Care Committee (CCC).
T: It couldn’t be better. Now we’ll listen and check our prediction and also finish the exercises on Page 70.
Step V Assignment
T: Boys and girls, today we have listened to two materials about giving help to others. I do hope all of us will help those who need help. Besides, you should learn to predict what you will hear before listening and pay attention to the time expressions while listening.
