Check the homework. Ask some Ss to tell their plans for holidays. Then ask a pair of Ss to act out a conversation about their holiday plans.
A possible sample
Sa: Hi. Wang Bin.
Sb: Hi. Zhang Wei.
Sa: Where are you going for your holiday?
Sb: I’m going to Shanghai.
Sa: Whom are you going with?
Sb: My father.
Sa: How are you getting there?
Sb: By train. I can enjoy the window scenery.
Sa: What are doing there?
Sb: I am going to the Waitan. I am going to play on the sands. I’m going to see the TV Tower.
Sa: Where are you staying?
Sb: I’m staying at my Aunt’s.
Sa: When are you returning?
Sb: A week later.
Sa: Have a good trip!
Sb: Thank you.
Step 2 Reading
T: Wonderful! Homework check is over. Please turn to page 22. Now let go on with the journey down the Mekong with Wang Wei and Wang Kun. They are in Tibet at present. Now please read the passage quickly and quietly and get the main idea of it. Then I’ll ask you the questions on the screen.
Show the questions on the screen.
What items are Wang Wei and Wang Kun carrying with them? What do you think they will have to leave behind in Dali? What they should take instead?
How does Wang Kun feel about the trip now?
What do you think has changed his attitude?
Is it natural for Wang Kun not to feel lonely?
Would you feel the same way in this situation? Why or why not?
Do Chinese like to be around with others more than westerners?
Three minutes later, Teacher asks Ss those questions.T: Who volunteers to answer the first questions?
S1: They are carrying water bottles, cups, coats, gloves, T-shirts, shorts, tent, pillow. I think they should leave cups, gloves, coats behind and take raincoats instead.
T: The second?
S2: He is starting to enjoy the trip.
T: What about the second?
S3: Seeing the beautiful land has changed Wang Kun’s attitude.
T: Is it natural for Wang Kun not to feel lonely?
S4: Yes, We can see that the scene Wang Kun saw is beautiful. The clear sky , the bright stars and the fire accompany him. Besides, their cousins are waiting for him. They will meet soon. So he doesn’t feel lonely.
T: What’s your answer to the fourth question?
S5: Yes, because beautiful scenery will make people happy. Especially when his best friend is waiting for him somewhere.
T: What’s your opinion about the last one?
S6: Yes, Chinese prefer to be around others while Westerners want to spend some time alone. This is because of different cultures.
Step 3 Speaking
T: Great. Imagine Wang Wei and Wang Kun have a talk the next morning before they leave their camp. Can you make up a short dialogue between them with your partner?
Two minutes later, ask two pairs of Ss to act out.
S7: Oh, up so early?
S8: Early? It’s nearly 9 o’clock!
S7: Oops. (Look at his watch). I guess you’re right.
S8: Why were you so tired?
S7: Well, I stayed up late last night to watch the stars.
S8: That’s nice. They must be pretty.
S7: Yes, they were.
Another pair.
S9: You look tired.
S10: Yes, I stayed up the whole night.
S9: Really?
S10: Yes, I watched the stars and the clear sky.
S9: Great! That must be pretty.
S10: Yes, they were. Look at the sun and the clouds.
S9: How nice!
T: Wonderful! Now let’s listen to the tape and do a listening practice. Mark the rising and falling tone of each sense group and sentence. Then practice reading aloud.
Let the Ss do the practice for a few minutes.
Step 4 Listening and Explanation
Listen to the tape and do Ex 3, then do the explanation.
T: Now listen to the tape and please finish Ex3 on page 22.
Minutes later,
T: OK. we have read the passage and understood it. Does anyone have any problem?
S11: Would you please explain the sentence Our legs felt so heavy and cold ?
T: It means we were tired and felt very cold.
S12: What’s the meaning of We can hardly wait to see them?
T: They are eager to see their cousins.
T: No other problems? Well, have you noticed that Wang Kun and Wang Wei take many things during their travel? You see they change their clothes in different weather. Now boys and girls, let’s turn to a relaxing topic. If you are helping the cyclists to prepare for their trip down the Mekong, what do you think you need to choose to take? Look at the talking part on P 55. You are asked to circle five that you think are the most useful and then compare your list with your partner. And then tell the reasons. Here are some more items on the blackboard: backpack, cash, first aid kit, boots, suitcases, passports and CD card.
Five minutes later, ask two pairs of Ss to act out their dialogues.
Sample dialogue:
Sa: Well, I’m not sure about some of these things but I think a can/tin opener is not very useful.
Sb: Why not?
Sa: Just think: cans / tins are heavy to carry on a bike. So no cans means no can / tin opener.
Sb: Yes, you’re right. And I’m not sure about the need for an umbrella either.
Sa: But certainly it will rain on their trip. So it is useful.
Sb: I disagree. How can you hold an umbrella and ride a bike?
Sa: Oh yeah, I see what you mean. So they should have raincoats.
Sb: Yes, and raincoats are not heavy.
Sa: How about the radio? I mean, can we really use it?
Sb: Maybe in China they can get the weather report on the radio.
Sa: Yes, sure, but most of the trip is not in China. They don’t know the languages.
Sb: Right. OK. So we agree that a can / tin opener, umbrella and a radio are useless.
Another sample:
Sc: I think a tent and a blanket are the most useful.
Sd: I agree, they need them to spend night. And I am sure of the need of a compass.
Sc: I don’t think so. As long as they travel down the river, they’ll never lose their way.
Sd: Yes, How about a water bottle?
Sc: In my opinion, it’s the most useful. They need water all the way.
Sd: Right. I am sure they need a map.
Sc: Yes. If they have a map, they will know where they are.
Sd: Now, a tent, a blanket and a map are the most useful.
Step 5 summing up and homework
T: OK. Everyone. Today we have read a passage and practiced speaking. We have known what we will take when we take a bike trip. Please go on practice talking about the subject after class. Next class, I will ask some of you to act out your dialogues. This is your homework. Pease do the SPEAKING TASK on page 59 in your Workbook. Imagine that you and three of your classmates run a travel business that gives tours of famous places in or near your hometown. You want to make a poster advertising a tour so that your travel agency can get more business. That’s all for today. Bye.
