Teaching procedures and ways
Step I Greetings and Revision
Greet the whole class as usual.
T: Good morning, boys and girls!
Ss: Good morning, teacher!
T: From the text , we know that RealCine uses new technology to improve an existing type of entertainment . Could this technology be used in some other ways? Now , work in pairs and discuss with your partners. Five minutes later, I will collect your answer.
Five minutes later,
T: Are you ready to give us your ideas?
Ss: Yes.
S1: I think it should be used to meet people all over the world. We have friends in many other places. Since we are busy studying at school, we don’t have much time to communicate with our friends. If we can use this technology, we can communicate with our friends more often.
S2: I think it should be used to train drivers. As we know, private cars are becoming more and more popular among common people. To have access to driving cars, we should first get the driving license. For example, my dad has to go to the driving school once a week . But he is so busy that sometimes he couldn’t take the classes. If the virtual reality can be used in our home, we needn’t spend the valuable time going to the driving school. We just learn the skill at home.
T: Good idea! Thank you! You are really imaginative. I hope one day your dreams will come true. I know that you have understood the reading passage thoroughly. That’s all for our reading part.

Parents’ opinionsA sampleDear Sir,
Recently, a survey about the school computer room was carried out in our school. The students find the design of the computer room impractical. They are not interested in studying there because of this. I am writing this proposal to you to voice our opinion that the computer room needs improving.There are not enough computers in our computer room. The computers that we use at the moment are old and slow, and they often crash, which wastes a lot of time. The computers there are not connected to the Internet, so we can not get the information that we need for our homework. There is only one printer in the room, which always goes wrong. In addition, the room is too hot in summer. As more and more subjects are involved in IT, the computer room is playing a very important role in our studies nowadays. We are encouraged to use computers to do our homework and get information from the Internet. Now many factories and companies cannot work without computers, so those who have computer skills are easier to find a job. In order to get ourselves well prepared for the future, we need a well-equipped computer room. I am sure that most parents would agree with our proposal that our school should improve the computer room. The government says we should have more IT in all subjects, and more subjects are developing rapidly with the help of IT. Computer skills are becoming more and more important in further studies. We will not keep up with the development of society if we are not good at using computer room an hope that you will seriously consider our request.
Best wishes,
Senior High 1

Why?
What developments in science and technology would you like to see happen in the future?More information about robotsWhy do we need robots
Why do we need robots? First, they are hardworking and reliable. They can do dangerous work or work that is very boring or tiring for humans. They can work around the clock without complaining and without needing rest, food or vacations. And robots can go places that humans can not, such as the surface of Mars, deep under the ocean or inside the radioactive parts of a nuclear power plant. The Parts of a RobotFirst, a robot must have a body of some kind.
Like the scarecrow in the Wizard of Oz, a robot also needs a brain.
For a robot to be really useful, it must have some sort of intelligence.
Just as humans have sense organs such as eyes and ears, robots need sensors.
A robot might also need a voice to speak to its owner.
Many robots need some type of hand, usually called a manipulator or gripper, to do their jobs. What jobs do you think robots could do in the future?
Do you think robots will replace human beings in the future? What things do you think robots can’t do?

If we want to surf online, we just need to connect the computer with cables by network card.
Your photos are so beautiful, and I can use the scanner to copy them into my computer.
Sometimes the information in the floppy disk is easily to be destroyed, so we can use a CD-writer to store the information for a long time.
