He would like to have it taken in the afternoon because he must have his hair cut in the morning. The other is the photographer who wants to take the picture in the morning because he/ she won’t be free in the afternoon. See how well you can arrange the meeting. These phrases may be useful.
Shall we make an appointment?
How/ what about …?
When are you free?
When do you think is convenient for you?
Is it possible to …?
Where is the best place?
What if …?
Perhaps we could…I shall be busy at … and … but I can be free at …Maybe we can meet at …I’m not sure. I’ll have to check my schedule.
Sample dialogue
S1: Hello. I’d like to speak to Li Feizhou. I’m the photographer ringing him to make an appointment for some photographs for “Cool Scene” magazine. Is it possible to meet him tomorrow?
S2: Hello. Perhaps I can help. I am Li Feizhou’s secretary. I’m afraid he can only meet you tomorrow afternoon as he had a haircut in the morning. Is that OK?
S1: Oh dear. I was hoping he would be free in the morning as I have another appointment then. It should only take two hours. Maybe we could meet before or after his appointment. S2: Yes. That might be possible. But he’s busy between 9:00 and 10:30 and then between 11:30 and 1:00 but he might be free for an hour between 10:30 and 11:30.
S1: I don’t think that’s long enough. Could he change his other appointment to another day?
S2: I don’t think so.
S1: Then could he be free at 10:00? We could do the photographs and I would still be on time for my next appointment.
S2: That sounds quite possible. I’ll ask him. What would he need to wear?
S1: Some comfortable clothes would be best.
S2: Fine. I’ll talk to him and call you again very soon. Where would it be best to meet?
S1: At the studio if that is OK with you. Thank you very much.

Using language
教学步骤 (Teaching procedure)
Step 1 word study(略)
Step 2. warming up
As a journalist, Zhou Yang was eager to get a scoop. Now comes the chance. Let’s go to the text “ Getting the Scoop” What do you suppose the “ scoop” is about? Who ? What?
What is the scoop about? The scoop tells about a famous film star, who has done something wrong but has been lying.
-- Did he really do that?
-- Yes, I’m afraid he did. What do you suppose the film star may have done?
Step3. Read the text and then answer the following questions, give the main idea of the text:
1. Do you want to get some information everyday? How can you get the information?
2. Can you guess how complex it is to make news?
( Students can discuss in pairs. ) Main idea: the passage tells us the process of writing and printing for a newspaper article.

1. What should be done before the scoop appear in the newspaper?
2. How should be a good article like?
3. What is the film star’s response to the affair?
4. How did Zhou Yang deal with the affair?
-- The famous film star has been lying about the affair, but Zhou Yang is determined to find out the truth that he has been lying. Although he had realized the man had been lying, Zhou Yang knew he mustn’t accuse him directly. He would have to be accurate. Concise too!
?What was Zhou Yang’s first task?
?How should he write about the story?
?How many people read his article before it was ready to be processed into film negative? Who are they?
Step 5 Read the text again and work out the writing and printing process for an article. Then complete the chart below.
First fill in the blanks according to the pictures .
1. You go to an interview to _________________for your story.

3 -- You begin to write the story using the notes from the interview
4 --You give the article to the department editor
5 --The article is given to a native speaker to check the use of English and improve the style
6 -- The last stage the article is checked and approved by the chief editor.
7 -- All the stories and photos are set and the color negatives for the printing are made ready.

Sample dialogue
S1: Hello. I’d like to speak to Li Feizhou. I’m the photographer ringing him to make an appointment for some photographs for “Cool Scene” magazine. Is it possible to meet him tomorrow?
S2: Hello. Perhaps I can help. I am Li Feizhou’s secretary. I’m afraid he can only meet you tomorrow afternoon as he had a haircut in the morning. Is that OK?
S1: Oh dear. I was hoping he would be free in the morning as I have another appointment then. It should only take two hours. Maybe we could meet before or after his appointment. S2: Yes. That might be possible. But he’s busy between 9:00 and 10:30 and then between 11:30 and 1:00 but he might be free for an hour between 10:30 and 11:30.
S1: I don’t think that’s long enough. Could he change his other appointment to another day?
S2: I don’t think so.
S1: Then could he be free at 10:00? We could do the photographs and I would still be on time for my next appointment.
S2: That sounds quite possible. I’ll ask him. What would he need to wear?
S1: Some comfortable clothes would be best.
S2: Fine. I’ll talk to him and call you again very soon. Where would it be best to meet?
