S: Yes, of course.
T: Very good!
Step II Warming up
First, ask each student to make the survey by filling the form and choose the answers. Teacher shows the scoring sheet to them, add up their score and see how many points they can get all by themselves. Second, teacher shows the instruction. Get the Ss to judge which grade they belong to according to their points and decide if they are good friends or not by themselves secretly. Third, they’ve known how well they treat their friends and what they should do to be a good friend themselves.
T: Do you have any friends?
S: Yes, I do. I have made a lot of friends.
T: Are you good to your friends?
S: Yes, of course.
T: We always think we are kind to our friends. But in fact, we are not quite sure if we are considerate enough? Now let us make the following survey. First, please choose the answers all by yourselves.
The Ss are choosing the answers.
T: Are you finished?
Ss: Yes.
T: OK, I’ll show you the scoring sheet on the screen.
Please fill in the following form quickly. Add up your scores and see how many points you can get all by yourselves. Are you clear?

Ss: Certainly.
T: Now I’ll show the instruction on the screen. Please judge which grade you belong to according to your points and decide if you are good friends or not by yourselves secretly.
Show the Ss the instructions.
4~8 Grade I
You are always thinking about yourself. You should care more about your friends. If you continue to be self-centered and don’t consider others’ feelings, you won’t make more friends and keep friendship for long.
9~13 Grade II
You take things smoothly. You seldom hurt your friends with your benefit considered. You’d better add more affection to your friends. Friendship is about feelings and we must give as much as we take.
14~18 Grade III
Wow! How faithful and generous you are! Congratulations! You are always ready to help your friends. Whenever they have any difficulty, you’ll try your best to do what you can to help them without hesitation.
T: All right. I see you’ve known how well you treat your friends and what you should do to be a good friend. I hope all of us can be good friends with each other soon. Do you agree with me?
Ss: Yes, of course.
Step III Pre-reading
Get the Ss to discuss the questions on Page 2 with their partners. Then ask the Ss to report their work. Encourage the Ss to express their different opinions. Make it clear that not only can we make friends with human beings, but also with animals and even things that have no life.
T: Now please look at the slide show. And discuss these questions with your partners. Then I’ll ask some students to report your work. Are you clear?
Ss: Yes, sir/madam.
Show the following on the screen.
1. Why do you need friends? Make a list of reasons why friends are important to you.
2. What do you think a good friend should be like? List what a good friend should do and share the list with your partners.
3. Does a friend always have to be a person? What else can be your friend?
4. Do you think a diary can become your friend? Why or why not?
After the Ss’ discussion, teacher says the following.
T: Now who’d like to answer the first question? Volunteer!
Sa: Let me try. I think friends are important to all of us.
Because we need to help with each other.
Sb: We also need someone to care and understand, to share sorrows and happiness.
Sc: Everyone needs a friend to be true to us whether near or far apart.
T: Quite right. Next question?
Sd: I think my good friend should have a lot in common and our thoughts are always near.
Se: I need my friends to give me courage to solve all kinds of problem.
Sf: I think my friends should support me whenever I need help.
Sg: I’d like my friends to communicate with me frequently.
Sh: In my opinion, my friends should have the same kind of sense of humor so that we can laugh together.
T: Terrific! I wish everyone to have some good friends whose friendship always be treasured in our hearts. Not only can we make friends with human beings, but also with animals and even things that have no life. How about the third question?
Si: Yes, because persons can understand and communicate with each other more easily and conveniently.
Sj: I think other things like pets, books, toys, balls, and instruments can also be our friends.
T: Wonderful! You have a very great imagination. Now who can answer the last question?
Sk: Yes, I think so. Because you can tell everything to it freely, it can accompany me all the time. It never needs me to pay back.
Sl: But I don’t think so. Because it’s unbelievable for a person to communicate with a diary. And your secrets will be easily and completely let out in case that it is read by others or your diary books are lost. If I had been Anne, I would have made friends with my parents.
T: Most of our friends are human beings, but sometimes we make friends with animals or even things like diary. You’ve done an excellent job.
Step IV Reading
Scanning
Get the Ss to comprehend the passage quickly and accurately and meanwhile help the Ss to form a good habit of reading. Teacher gives the Ss a couple of minutes to look through the whole passage. Tell the Ss to read the text silently and then ask some detail questions about the text on the slide show with their partners. Teacher encourages the Ss to express their ideas.
T: We’re going to learn a passage about Anne’s best friend. The story happened during World War II. Now let’s look at the slide show. Read the text quickly and find answers to the following questions.

How and why did Anne make it her only true friend?

S12: She was always worried about being caught by the Nazism, although she was crazy about nature.

Skimming
In this part, the Ss will read the text again and then work together with their partners to get the main idea. Then teacher shows the form on the screen. Give the a few minutes to fill in the form about the whole text. Check the answers with the whole class.

Explanation
T: Now let’s deal with some language points. Turn to Page 2. Let’s look at the sentences.
I wonder if it’s because I haven’t been able to be outdoors for so long that I’ve grown so crazy about everything to do with nature.
This sentence means that Anne couldn’t go out for so long that she had felt wildly exited about nature.
For example, when it was so warm, I stayed awake on purpose until half past eleven one evening in order to have a good look at the moon for once by myself.
This sentence tells us that on a very warm evening, Anne stayed up until half past eleven so as to look at the moon for once by herself.
It was the first time in a year and a half that I’d seen the night face to face....
This sentence means that it was a year and a half since she and her family hid away and she had a look at the moon face to face with the window open by herself.
Step V Comprehension
Read the passage again. First ask the Ss to do Ex 1 by themselves. And then do Ex 2 with their partners. At last, get them to discuss the answers of Ex 3 in groups of 4.
T: Now please read the passage again and then turn to page 3. First let’s do Ex 1 by yourselves.
A few minutes later.
T: OK, now let’s check the answers with the whole class.
Ss: 1. Anne kept a diary because she could tell everything to it.
2. She felt very lonely because she couldn’t meet her friends.
3. They had to hide because Jews were caught by Nazis and put away.

T: Now, it’s time for us to do Ex 2, please talk about the answers with your partners.
The Ss are talking about their choices.
T: All right! Let’s choose the correct answers and tell us why.
Ss: 1. D. Because in her diary, she wrote that “it was the first time in a year and a half that I’d seen the night face to face.”
2. C. Because “she wanted a friend whom she could tell everything to, like her deepest feelings and thoughts.” But it’s dangerous to trust others easily in the hiding place.
3. D. Because she wrote in her diary that “I wonder if it’s because I haven’t been able to be outdoors for so long that I’ve grown so crazy about everything to do with nature.”
4. A. Because “Her family was Jewish so they had to hide or they would be caught by the German Nazis.” And “The moon gave far too much light.” That means the moon was so bright that it might make the Nazis discover her family hiding there. If so, they would be caught.
5. B. Because the diary was written in June, 1945 and it was in a year and a half that she’d seen the night face to face.
T: Now let’s deal with Ex 3. Please look at the slide show. Now I’ll give you a few minutes to discuss the answers to the two questions in groups of 4.

2. How would you describe Anne’s feelings as she was looking out into the night sky?

S4: I missed my relatives and friends very much. I felt extremely lonely in this strange hiding place. I needed them to support and encourage me to get through the hard time.
T: Excellent! I think you’ve understood Anne’s deepest feelings and thoughts. The second question?
S5: Anne and her family had to live the life of wandering about and departing from the world. She felt very lonely and sad, so she was just able to make a friend with her diary.
S6: She worried that her family couldn’t escape from the clutches of the devil at last. They were at the danger. It was probable for them to be discovered at any time.

II 课文Text Retelling
The possible version below can be used as a material for both retelling and dictation.
One possible version:
I lived in Amsterdam in the Netherlands during World War II. My family was Jewish, so we had been hid away for a year and a half in order not to be caught by the German Nazis. During that time I hadn’t been able to be outdoors for so long that I had grown so crazy about everything to do with nature. Once, I decided to look at the moon at midnight. But I didn’t dare to open the window to see the night face to face because I was afraid of being discovered by the Nazis. I felt very lonely without seeing my old friends. So I had to make a new true friend, my diary Kitty, whom I could tell everything to. Unfortunately, at last my family was discovered and caught by the German Nazis half a year later.

V 写作意图Writing Purpose
The text related a miserable story that during the World War II, as the Jewish, Anne and her family had to live the life of wandering about and departing from the world. However, they couldn’t escape from the clutches of the devil at last. It exposed the crimes that the Nazis oppressed the Jewish and make them suffering the complete darkness and extreme misery and hardship without any happiness. It showed the heroine’s real thoughts, hating wars and terrors and longing for peace and freedom. But she could do nothing but to hide away, having her heart in her mouth and living in fear of being caught because she was frightened to suffer cruel persecution and daren’t face the fact, not having the power of resistance. The cruel historical fact showed to the world that compromise only ended up with the failure.
The writer exposed the cruel control of the Nazis, while proposing a sharp question to the whole society, under control of the powerful Nazis, what attitude on earth did the wide oppressed people take, choosing inactive and passive waiting for death, or uniting actively to face the reactionaries and fight against them bravely? Where there is oppression, there is resistance.
本文通过叙述了犹太人安妮一家在纳粹党人的黑暗统治下,只能过着滇沛流漓与世隔绝的逃亡生活,却最终难逃魔掌的悲惨命运。在揭露德国纳粹党欺压犹太人民,使人民生活在水深火热之中的罪恶行径的同时,也表达主人公既憎恨战争和压迫,又渴望和平与自由,却因惧怕遭到残酷迫害,不敢正视现实,无力反抗,只能过着东躲西藏,提心吊胆,担惊受怕,毫无幸福可言的暗无天日的生活。这一残酷的历史事实,向世人说明,妥协退让只能以失败而告终。
作者在揭露纳粹的残暴统治的同时,向全社会提出一个尖锐的问题:在强大的纳粹统治下,广大受压迫的人民究竟应该采取什么样的态度,是选择消极被动地坐等待毙,束手就擒呢?还是应该积极主动地团结起来,勇敢地与反动派进行斗争呢?

活动与探究
Go to your school library or surf the Internet to find Anne’s Diary and read some of it. Print out a piece of the diary and write down your feelings after reading it on the page. Then share the pieces and your feelings with the whole class. The purpose of this activity is to encourage students to make use of libraries and the Internet to enlarge their reading and enrich their knowledge. It can also make students understand more about the reading passage in this unit.
One of Anne’s Diaries:
Saturday, 15 July, 1944
“For in its innermost depths youth is lonelier than old age. ” I read this saying in some book and I’ve always remembered it, and found it to be true. Is it true then that grownups have a more difficult time here than we do? No. I know it isn’t. Older people have formed their opinions about everything, and don’t waver before they act. It’s twice as hard for us young ones to hold our ground, and maintain our opinions. . .
Anyone who claims that the older ones have a more difficult time here certainly doesn’t realize to what extent our problems weigh down on us, problems for which we are probably much too young, but which are continuous, until, after a long time, we think we’ve found a solution, but the solution doesn’t seem able to resist the facts which put it to nothing again. That’s the difficulty in these times: ideals, dreams, and cherished hopes rise within us, only to meet the terrible truth and be destroyed.
It’s really a wonder that I haven’t dropped all my ideals, because they seem so unbelievable and impossible to carry out. Yet I keep them, because in spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart. . .

Class-exercise
Question 1 deal with how thoughtful you are towards others. The scoring reflects your concern for others. So one point for A gets the lowest score because it is the most selfish response. B get the highest score because it show a concern for your friend as well as your wish to go to see a film. C gets a slightly lower score because although it shows you want to go with your friend (because you change the plan), you do not help your friend.
Question 2 is concerned with fairness. A gets the lowest score because you are not giving your friend another chance to behave better this time. B gets a higher score because you let your friend borrow the camera again. This shows kindness and forgiveness or the trouble you had when it was returned broken. But you are not balancing his heeds against your own. That is why C gets the highest score. You are showing your friend that you will trust him/her with the camera again but this time you are giving him / her rules in case it gets bro ken.
Question 3 deals with your concern for others. A get the lowest score because you would put anything else that needed to be done aside and concentrate only on your friend. This is not responsible. You have things that you need to do. Of course your friend is important but not more important than you responsibilities. B gets a higher score because it shows some concern for your friend and some understanding that you have important things to do too. But it does not show any real interest in his / her problem. C get the highest score because it not only shows concern for your friend but a recognition that you have responsibilities too.
Question 4 is concerned with responsibilities to a friend. A provides the correct amount of responsibility to your friend. You recognize that it was your fault and will put it right an d pay for the damage. So it gets the highest score. B provides some understanding that you are responsible. You put the situation right but you do not pay for the damage yourself. So it does not get the highest score. C gets the lowest score because you expect your friend to pay for your mistakes even though you were doing your friend a favour.
Question 5 is concerned with honesty. If you let your friend look at your paper or somebody else’s paper, you are helping them to cheat. That is not honest, so answers A and C get no marks. But it takes courage to tell your friend that they should have studied and that they cannot look at your paper. That is also the honest answer. So you get 6 points for B, which is more than any other in the quiz.
