教学过程
Step 1. Revision
1) Translate the sentences into English.
① 请你告诉我，怎样去书店好吗？
② 打扰了，你知道我在哪能买到一些邮票吗？
③ 我想知道公园今天什么时候关门。
④ 银行和超市之间有一个餐馆。
2) Role-play the conversation in 2d.
Step 2. Presentation
1) Show a picture of fun park. Ask students: Are you excited to try these in the fun park?
2) Show a ride to them and say: How do you think the ride? Is it fun or scary? Do you want to have a try?
Step 3. Reading
1) Read the conversation in 3a quickly and true or false the sentences.
① Alice and He Wei are in Water World.
② The new ride looks scary.
③ Alice was scary at first.
④ Alice thinks the new ride is actually fun.
⑤ He Wei thinks Fun Times Park restaurant severs delicious food.
⑥ A rock band plays in Water World Restaurant every evening.
⑦ Alice and He Wei can go later to the restaurant.
2) Read the conversation again and answer the questions in 3a.
1. Why did Alice not want to go on the new ride? How did she feel after the ride?
2. What is special about Uncle Bob’s restaurant?
3. Should Alice and He Wei get there early for dinner? Why?
Step 4. Practice
Underline the questions or statements in the conversation that ask for information. Rewrite them in a different way.
e.g. I wonder where we should go next.
Could you tell me where we could go next?
Check the answers with the whole class.
Step 5. Language points
1. I was scared at first, but shouting did help.
此句相当于I was scared at first, but shouting really helped. 原句是一种表现强调的句式，英语中，可用助动词do对谓语动词进行强调，构成强调句。
e.g. Please do be careful. 请一定小心。
I do agree with you. 我完全同意你的意见。
He did warn you other day, remember? 他前两天就告诫过你，还记得吗？
2. You never know until you try something.
try的用法
1) 做名词 have a try 试一试 e.g. Why not have a try? 为什么不试一试？
2) 做动词 (1) try to do sth. 努力做某事 e.g. Well, we’ll try to finish the homework in time.
那好。我们争取及时完成作业。
(2) try doing sth. 表示尝试着去做某事
e.g. -- I usually go there by train.?我通常乘火车去那儿。 -- Why not try going by boat for a change? 为什么不换乘船呢?
(3) try one’s best 尽某人最大的努力 e.g. Thank you. I will try my best. 谢谢你。我会尽力而为的。
3. I suggest Water City Restaurant in Water World.
suggest作动词，可意为“显示；间接表明”，后可接宾语从句。
e.g. His behavior suggested (that) he was a kind man.??
他的行为显示他是个好人。
suggest作“建议”讲时，应注意以下两点：
1) suggest doing sth. 建议做某事
e.g. I suggested going home.
我建议回家。
2) suggest后接从句时，从句常用虚拟语气，谓语由“should +动词原形”构成，should可以省略。
e.g. I suggested that we should go home. 我建议我们回家。
另外，suggestion是suggest的名词形式，作“建议”讲时，是可数名词。
e.g. Do you have any suggestions? 你有什么建议吗？
4. The restaurant is always busy, at that time so come a little earlier to get a table.
用于“就餐”的语境时，形容词busy相当于“吃饭人多；餐厅拥挤”的意思；动词短语to get a table类似于汉语“定餐桌；占位子”等意思。
Step 6. Homework
1. 背诵3a。
2. 用“Could you tell me … ?”写三个问路的句子。

语序：无论主句是陈述句还是疑问句，也无论主从句间是什么引导词，宾语从句一律用陈述语序，即“引导词+主语+谓语+其它”。如：Could you tell me where Wei Fang lives??

1. 如果主句是一般现在时或一般将来时，宾语从句的时态不受限制，可根据实际表达的需要来确定。如：

2. 如果主句是一般过去时，宾语从句用过去时态的某种形式。如：

③ 问完路后，千万不要忘记向对方说句“Thank you for helping me.” 或“Thank you.”
