Step I Greeting and Revision
Check the Ss’ homework by asking some of the students to retell the text.【版权所有：21教育】
T: Good morning/afternoon, boys and girls. Who can retell the text?
S: Let me have a try. At first, only people in England spoke English. Later, people from England moved to other parts, so English began to be spoken in many countries. Today, more people speak English as their first, second, or foreign language. Native English speakers can understand each other but not everything. All languages change when cultures communicate with one another. So there are British English, American English, Australian English and so on. They all have their own identity. English is also spoken as a foreign or second language in many other countries. Maybe one day Chinese English will become one of the world English.
Task Listen and find the British and American words which are different but have the same meaning. Work in pairs.
T: Turn to P12.part5. Listen to the dialogues one by one. Then tell your partner which words are different but have the same meaning. Let’s listen to the first one.2·1·c·n·j·y
