Material
analysis
Section
A
is
the
first
lesson
of
Unit
2
which
is
about
earthquake.
It
is
a
lesson
of
listening
and
speaking.
The
main
activity
of
it
is
1a,

and
3.
It
draws
out
the
topic
about
earthquake
by
the
conversation
between
Kangkang
and
Li
Ming.
Then
it
leads
in
the
grammar
focus
by
carrying
out
a
comparison
among
Yushu
earthquake,
Wenchuan
earthquake
and
Tangshan
earthquake.
That
is
the
comparative
and
superlative
degrees
of
adjectives.
The
conversation
is
a
bit
long
and
difficult
for
the
students.
In
order
to
provide
some
background
knowledge
which
is
related
to
the
conversation
and
lay
the
foundation
for
the
students’
later
listening
and
speaking,
I
play
a
short
video
about
earthquake
for
the
students
before
listening.
