3a Circling and underlining
On page 54 is a newspaper article about Paris. While reading it, circling the things you like about visiting Paris and underling the thing you don’t like.
TRAVEL SPOTLIGHT: PARIS
For your next vocation, why not consider visiting Paris? Paris is the capital of France, and is one of the liveliest cities in Europe. It doesn’t have any beaches or mountains, but there are still many things to do there. For example, it has some fantastic sights, including the Eiffel Tower and Notre Dame Cathedral, one of the most famous churches in the world.
Traveling around Paris by taxi can cost a lot of money, but it’s usually quite convenient to take the underground train to most places. In general, though, France is quite an expensive place. One thing that is not expensive in France, however, is the wine！
Most people in France have learned English. But many people don’t like to speak English, especially in Paris. So unless you speak French yourself, it’s best to travel with someone who can translate things for you.
Read the article the second time and blacken all the expressions. You may copy them after class.
3b Doing pairwork
In pairs practice the conversation on the middle left of page 54. And then make new conversations with the information in the box on the right in the box.

b: I’d like to visit Kunming.

Terrible Dream
I'm feeling rather ragged.
I'm feeling rather rough.
I'm looking like I stayed up late,
And didn't sleep enough.
I went to sleep at bedtime
And dreamt all through the night,
but when I woke this morning
I was feeling far from right.
For though I drifted quickly,
And slumbered long and deep,
I'm totally exhausted
'cause I dreamed I couldn't sleep!
--Kenn Nesbitt

Subject: Vacation From: S.T. Zhang
Dear Ace Travel,
My family and I want to take a trip this summer somewhere in the east of China. I hope you can provide me with some information about the kinds of vacations that your firm can offer. We would like to travel to an exciting place, and we won’t mind how far we have to go. It has to be a place where we can do lots of exercise; we especially love hiking and swimming, but any kind of exercise is fine. We also need to stay in an inexpensive hotel. It would be nice if our hotel had rooms with kitchens so we could save money by cooking our own meals. The room needs to be big enough for three people. Also, we’d like to stay at a place with a big pool or somewhere near the ocean. Could you please give me some suggestions for vacation spots? Also, please let me know if it’s best to travel by plane, train or bus. We’d like to be away for about three weeks.
Thank you very much.
S.T. Zhang
3b Imaging and emailing
Imagine the you work for Ace Agency. You are to write an email message to S.T. Zhang, telling where you think he or she should go on vacation.
Subject: Vacation From: Deng Ming
Dear S.T. Zhang,
From your e-mail message I understand that your and you want to take a trip this summer somewhere in the east of China. Now I’d like to provide me with some information about the kinds of vacations that our firm can offer. You said that you would like to travel to an exciting place, and you won’t mind how far you have to go. So why not go to Mount Wuyi in Fu Jian Province? It is a beautiful place where you can do lots of exercise by hiking and swimming. You can also find an inexpensive hotel there. It is a fine hotel with kitchens so you could save money by cooking your own meals. The room are big enough for five people. Also, the hotel has a big pool close to the Minjiang River。While staying in Mount Wuyi you may go visiting Nine-crook Stream Waterfall Cave，Wu Yi Palace，Tiger Howling Rock and Jade Lady Peak. For transportation you may travel by plane from Shanghai to Mount Wuyi. To go back you’d better take train or bus. Three weeks is long enough for you to enjoy yourselves there.
Wish you a good vacation.
Deng Ming

We all dream about things that we’d like to do, and things we hope to achieve in the future. But are everybody’s dreams the same? Here are some of the findings of a survey about hopes and dreams, in which thousands of students across China took part.
What are the hopes of teenagers?
We received several different answers to the question: what would you like to do after finishing your education? It seems some students would like to start work as soon as possible, so that they can help provide better lives for their parents. Other students hope to continue studying after finishing school, and to go to university. Although money is important, many teenagers said they want to do jobs they enjoy. According to the survey, the most popular choice of job is computer programming.
What are the dreams of teenagers?
Teenagers have all kinds of dreams. Some are more realistic than others. For example, many students said they would like to be volunteers at the Olympics, maybe working as translators or tour guides. And quite a few said they dream of going to the moon one day. According to the survey, less realistic dreams are also common, but many students reported that they were willing to work hard to achieve their dreams. Quite a few dream of becoming famous, perhaps famous sportspeople or singers. Some said they’d love to go on exciting trips; one student said she’d love to sail across the Pacific Ocean. And then there are dreams that are impossible; three students said they’d like to be able to fly！
conclusion
It was clear from the survey that teenagers have similar hopes. It seems that most students hope to have a good education and find a good job. On the other hand, students dream of very different things: good things, and even crazy things. It is very important to dream, so hold on to your dreams; one day they may just come true.
After you read, copy down all the underline phrases into your phrase book.
Dream about…, achieve… in the future, findings of a survey about…, across…, take part in…, the hopes of…, receive several different answers to the question, do… after finishing…, It seems that…, start work as soon as possible, help provide… for…, continue studying after finishing school, go to university, do jobs, the most popular choice of…, computer programming, the dreams of teenagers, have all kinds of dreams, for example, be volunteers at the 2008 Olympics, work as translators or tour guides, quite a few, dream of going to the moon one day, less realistic dreams, be willing to work hard, achieve one’s dream, dream of becoming famous, famous sports people or singers, love to go on exciting trips, love to sail across the Pacific Ocean, It was clear from… that…, have similar hopes, It seems that…, have a good education, find a good job, on the other hand, dream of…, hold on to…, come true

Tina: Yes, it was, but it was so sad it made us cry.
John: Sad movies make me want to leave!
Tina: You behave just like my brother!
3a Reading and answering
On page 104 is an article about restaurant science. Before you read, imagine just what a restaurant science is. While you read, try to divide the sentences into parts, underline the expressions and, blacken the connectives and circle the “make/s me ＋ infinitive, make/s me ＋ adjective” structure.
Restaurant science
Restaurant owners have to know how to make food. They also have to know how to make money. Here are some things they’ve learned from scientific studies. The color red makes people hungry. Red also makes customers eat faster. Many fast food restaurants, therefore, have red furniture or walls. Soft colors like pink and light blue ma ke people relaxed, so they spend more time eating their meals. Soft lighting makes people look good, but it makes food look bad. Loud music may be nice at first, but it soon makes people want to leave. Hard seats also make customers want to eat quickly and leave. Many restaurants, especially fast food restaurants, use this knowledge to make customers eat faster. Customers only sit for about 20 minutes before they leave. Because customers don’t stay very long, small restaurants can serve many people every day.
Now you are to answer the three questions on page 104 in the box.
1.What does the color red make most people feel? →The color red makes people
Hungry. Red also makes customers eat faster.
2.Why do so many fast food restaurant paint their walls red, play loud music, and have hard seats? →Because red color makes customers eat faster, loud music makes people want to leave and hard seats also make customers want to eat quickly and leave.
3.Do you think it’s fair that some restaurants are designed to be uncomfortable. → No, I don’t think so. The restaurant owners are running the restaurants in order to make money. They want more customers to come to spend money in their restaurants.
3b Doing groupwork
Now let’s play a game. Tell your group members about a place you know well. Let them try to guess the name of the place.
A: The seats are very hard.
The white walls make me stressed.
b: Is it this classroom?
A: No, it isn’t.
b: Is it a hospital?
A: Yes, that’s right.

Girl2: I agree. Look at this one. Lookout Sunglasses. For that mysterious look. I’ll bet they don’t even keep out the sun.
boy: And what about this one! Beauty Cream-the silky skin soap.
Girl2: Wait a minute! I tried Beauty Cream and it works really well. It makes your skin really soft. Have you ever tried Starshine Toothpaste?
Girl1: Oh, you mean Whiter than White? Yeah, I tried it and it tastes terrible. I’d never use it.
boy: I guess you shouldn’t believe everything you read.
After you listen, tick the products they like, and kick out the ones they don’t.

b: No. Never. I don’t love it.
3a Reading to decide
On page 106 you will find article talking about advertising.
before you read, guess at the ideas to be talked about in the article. While you read, underline the expressions, blacken the connectives and circle the examples of the make/s me ＋ infinitive, make/s me ＋ adjective structures.
Advertising: pros and cons
In the modern world, advertising is everywhere！Some people think that ads are great. Others hate ads, saying that they make our cities and countryside look ugly. Many ads are aimed specially at teenagers, and some young people see mo re than 100 advertisements a day. It’s true that some ads can be very useful. For instance, they can help you to compare two different products so that you can buy the one you really need. They can also help you save money. When prices are listed, you can go to the store with the lowest price. Ads also tell you when stores are having sales. However, some advertising can be confusing or misleading. Sometimes the words sound good but don’t really tell you anything about the quality of the product. At other times, the picture in an ad looks a lot better than the real thing. And you have to be careful. At times an ad can lead you to buy something you don’t need at all.
After you read, decide if you agree with the author or not.
3b Reading and completing
On page 106 in the center is an unfinished article. Read it and try to complete it using the information about two or more products in activity 2a.
Some advertisements tell the truth and some don’t. For example, the Easy Care Shampoo says it will give the shiniest hair ever. But my friend tried it and found it didn’t work. Lookout Sunglasses advertised don’t even keep out the sun! And there is the Starshine Toothpaste. It tastes terrible. It smells! But the Beauty Cream is a real thing. It works really well for me.
3c Looking and writing
After you read, you are to write! Now go back to page 105 to write slogans of your own with the help of the slogans of theirs there on page 105.
car→ It runs faster and never turns over!
Handphone → Call you, hear you, go to you, come to me!

Dear Diary, 28, June
I thought today was going to be really bad. To start with, it was raining, and rainy days make me sad. And it was my birthday, but when I got up, no one was at home, and Mom and Dad hadn’t left me a note. I walked to school with my best friend, Gu. She didn’t say anything either. This made me a little angry. After all, I remembered her birthday last month. In class, the teacher asked me for my homework, but as I was so tense when I left home, I had forgotten to bring it with me. That made me annoyed with myself. But things got better. Gu invited me for lunch. I was so surprised. Mon and Dad and all my friends were there. I had a wonderful surprise birthday lunch. That made me VERY happy.
Early morning Late morning Noon Lunch time
Sad A little angry annoyed surprised
Just for fun!
Looking at the posters above and write ad slogans for them.
Reading: Receiving money makes me uncomfortable.
before you read, go to the vocabulary list for this part on page 155. Read the words and study the word formation for meanings.
While you read, blacken the predicates and circle the connectives.
Receiving money makes me uncomfortable.
Many books have been written about “the art of giving”. But what about the art of receiving? Sometimes, receiving a gift can be difficult, especially when someone buys you a gift you don’t want！
“I remember when I was about twelve years old, my parents bought me a purple purse,” laughs Guo Xiaojing. “It really made me feel embarrassed, because to be honest, I thought the purse was really ugly！Still, I pretended that I liked it because I knew it would make my parents happy！”
Han Ling agrees. “That sounds like my grandparents！A few years ago, my grandparents gave me an orange sweater for my birthday. I used to wear it every time I visited them, but when I left their house, I took it off！Of course, this made me feel guilty. It was a very nice thought, but my grandparents have different taste from me！I think it’s hard to buy clothes or other personal things for people.”
To make things easier, some people would rather just give money. In some cultures, however, receiving money can make people uncomfortable. “When someone gives me money, it just makes me think they’re being lazy,” says John Wilson. “In England, we have a saying: It’s the thought that counts. When someone gives me money, I feel they don’t think at all. I prefer to receive a gift that has some thought behind it. I don’t mind if it’s something I don’t need. If someone has thought about a gift for me, it always makes me happy.”Different people have very different thoughts on this subject！So maybe the art of receiving is even more difficult than the art of giving！What do you think?
Part 2: Teaching Resources (第二部分：教学资源)
I. What is a poster?
A poster is any large piece of paper which hangs from a wall or other such surface.

新目标九年英语英文教案Unit 15 We’re trying to s整理3
Unit 4 What would you do?
Part 1: Teaching design (第一部分：教学设计)
Structures: Second conditional, Should for advice
Target language:
What would you do if you won a million dollars?
I’d give it to medical research.
I can’t sleep the night before an exam. What should I do?
If I were you, I’d take a long walk before going to bed.
Vocabulary: million, charity, pimple, confident, shirt, tie, medical research
Learning strategies: Matching, Listening for key words
SECTION A
Goals
●To learn to use Second conditional and Should for advice
●To listen and talk about imagined life
Procedures
Warming up by learning about Second conditional and Should for advice
The second conditional (also called conditional type 2) is a structure used for talking about unreal situations in the present or in the future. This page will explain how the second conditional is formed, and when to use it.
The structure of a second conditional sentence
Like a first conditional, a second conditional sentence consists of two clauses, an ”if“ clause and a main clause:
If clause main clause
If I had a million dollars, I would buy a big house.
If the ”if“ clause comes first, a comma is usually used. If the ”if“ clause comes second, there is no need for a comma:
Main clause if clause
I would buy a big house if I had a million dollars.
We use different verb forms in each part of a second conditional:
If clause if + subject + simple past verb*
Main clause subject + would + verb
1a Talking about imaginary situations
What would you do if you had a lot of money?
If I had a lot of money, I would give it to charity.
If I had a lot of money, I would buy snacks.
If I had a lot of money, I would give it to Hope Project.
If I had a lot of money, I would buy books for the poor.
1b Listening and numbering
Now you are going to listen and number the pictures 1 to 3 in the order you hear them.
Tapescript
Girl1: Hey, did you see this newspaper article? An old man had a million dollars. And he gave it to charity.
boy1: Wow, what a nice man!
Girl1: What would you do if you had a million dollars?
boy1: If I had a million dollars, I’d give the money to the zoo. I want to help the pandas.
Girl1: That’s a gook idea! I know what I’d do. I’d buy a big house for my family.
Girl2: Really? I’d put the money in the bank. Then I’d just watch it grow!
boy2: Hmmmm… I think I’d give the money to medical research. I’d want to help other people.
Now listen again and write down the sentences with Second conditional and Should for advice
1c Doing pairwork
Let’s pretend that we are the people in the picture on page 26. Talk with your partner about what you would do if you had a million dollars.
Look. This old man had a million dollars, and he gave it to charity.
Wow! What would you do if you won a million dollars?
I’d give it to medical research.
I’d take a chance to achieve my dream of flying to the moon.
If I won a million dollars, I’d stop working and become a professional runner.
I’d go to an old people’s home to help them.
I’d volunteer at the hospital twice every week.
2a Listening and circling
Listen to the tape and circle the reasons in the box on page 27 why Larry is nervous.
Tapescript
Girl1: Where are you going, Larry?
boy1: To Tom’s party.
Girl1: Lucky you! I’d love to go to that party!
boy1: Yeah, well, I’m a little nervous. I don’t know what to wear.
Girl1: If I were you, I’d wear a shirt and tie.
boy1: And I don’t have a present. What if everyone brings a present?
Girl1: If I were you, I’d take a small present-a pen or
Something. Keep it in your pocket and if everyone has a present,
You can give him yours. If not, you can keep it.
boy1: OK. But what if I don’t know anyone?
Girl1: If you don’t know anyone, you can talk to Tom. He’ll introduce you to people.
boy1: I guess I can do that.
Girl1: Look! You’re sure to have fun. But if you’re still nervous, you can leave.
Now listen again and write down all the expressions onto your phrase book.
Go to that party, a little nervous, wear a shirt and tie, have a present, bring a present, take a small present, keep…in your pocket, know anyone, talk to…, introduce… to …, have fun
2b Listening and checking
Listen to the tape again and check on page 27 the four things Larry’s sister says to him.
2c Doing pairwork
Xu Linfeng, you are Larry. Men Yating, you are Larry’s sister. Xu is going to talk about his worries and Men is going to give him advice.
X: I don’t know what to wear. M: If I were you, I’d wear a shirt and tie.
X: I don’t have a present. What if everyone else brings a present? M: If I were you, I’d take a small present-a pen or something.
X: What if I don’t know anyone? M: If you don’t know anyone, you can talk to Tom. He’ll introduce you to people.

3a Reading and matching
Go to page 28. Read the problems in the boxes and match them with the correct advice.
And now write down all the expressions into your phrase book.
be really shy, enjoy parties, get nervous before big parties, get pimples, look terrible, the night before…, take a big exam, do well, help with…, eat lots of fruits, drink lots of water, take a long walk, go to bed, look friendly, feel shy
3b Thinking and role playing
Next you are going to think of different advice for the problems in activity 3a. Role play conversations with your partner.
A: I am really shy. I don’t enjoy parties. B: If I were you, I’d go and shout in the street. I’d set up parties and invite all my classmates to come and sing and dance.
A: I get nervous before big parties and I get pimples. B: Pimples look good to me. They are not terrible at all. If I were you, the night before the big exam I’d lie in bed counting the cows, the sheep, the cattle and the horses. Then I’d have a nice sleep. If you count as many cows as possible you’d do well in the exam.
A: I can’t lose my weight. B: If I were you, I’d eat lots of fruits, drink lots of water and take a long walk before going to bed every evening.
4. Doing group work
You are put into pairs and find out each other’s problems at school and at home. Then give each other advice.
I really want to go to the mall with my parents, but I don’t have the time. Finish your homework at school and stop going to Sunday classes. You’ll find time that way.
I failed the driver’s exam and cannot get my driver’s license. Go practicing driving more often and go over the textbook three more times. You won’t fail next time.
My father does not want me to get my ears pierced. If I were you, I’d go to my mother for support. Or you can ask your mother to have her ears pierced first.
I have to go to school on foot. I want to take the bus. Going to school on foot is good for your health. Go on going to school, to any places nearby on foot. It save money, too.
I like to choose my own clothes, but my mother doesn’t allow me to do that. Wear your school uniforms while you are still a student. Wait till you are a big man and you’d have the right to choose your own clothes.

Dear Knowledgeable,
My best friend, Mei, has a problem. There is a really important English speech contest for our whole city next month. Our classmates want her to represent the class in the school contest. Everyone is sure she will win. It’s probably true. Mei is very clever, and can speak English really well. In fact, she always comes top in the school exams. The problem is that she’s very shy. She doesn’t want to let her friends down, but she’s terrified of speaking in front of other people. She’s my friend, so she can tell me that she’s shy. But she can’t tell everyone that. I don’t think they would believe her. I can’t think of any good advice to give her, but you always come up with good solutions to people’s problems. What do you think I should tell Mei? What do you think I should tell the rest of the students? Fran

3.Reading and underlining
We shall read the article once again, this time, to underline all the useful expressions in it. After school, you are going to write them down in your notebook.
This week/ we asked students/ at New Star High School/ about the best ways/ to learn more English. Many said/ they learnt/ by using English. Some students had more specific suggestions. Lillian Li, for example, said/ the best way/ to learn new words/ was by reading English magazines. She said that/ memorizing the words of pop songs/ also helped/ a little. When we asked about studying grammar/ she said, “I never study grammar. It's too boring.”
Wei Ming feels differently. He's been learning English/ for six years/ and really loves it. He thinks/ studying grammar /is a great way/ to learn a language. He also thinks that/ watching English movies/ isn't a bad way/ because he can watch the actors/ say the words. Sometimes, however, he finds watching movies/ frustrating/ because the people speak too quickly.
Lin Chang said that/ joining the English club/ at school/ was the best way/ to improve her English. Students get lots of practice/ and they also have fun. She added that/ having conversations/ with friends/ was not helpful/ at all. “We get excited/ about something/ and then/ end up speaking/ in Chinese,” she said.

2c Doing pairwork
IN pairs we are going to role play conversations using the information from activities 2a and 2b.
I don’t have a partner to practice English with. Maybe you should join an English language club.
I can’t get the pronunciation right. Listening can help.
I forget a lot of new words. Write the new words on cards and study them daily.

I don’t get much writing practices. Start writing an English diary every day.
I read very slowly. You should read to the recording of the text.
I make mistakes in grammar. Why don’t study the basic sentence patterns
3a Reading and cutting
It’s time to read the text HOW I LEARN ENGLISH. Now read and check (/) the sentences.
We are going to read the text again to study the form and function of all the predicate verbs.
How I learned to learn English
Last year/ my English class/ was difficult/ for me. First of all, it wasn't easy/ for me/ to understand the teacher/ when she talked to the class. To begin with, she spoke/ too quickly, and I couldn't understand every word. Later on, I realized that/ it doesn't matter/ if you don’t understand /every word. Also/ I was afraid to speak/ in class, because/ I thought/ my classmates/ might laugh at me. I couldn't always make complete sentences, either. Then/ I started to watch English-language TV. It helped/ a lot. I think that/ doing lots of listening practice/ is of the secrets of becoming a good language learner. Another thing/ that I found/ very difficult/ was English grammar. So/ I decided to take lots of grammar notes/ in every class. Then/ I started to write my own original sentences/ using the grammar/(that) I was learning. It’s amazing/ how much/ this helped. Now/ I am enjoying learning English/ and I got an A/ this term. My teacher is very impressed.
Next we shall read the text for the third time to underline all the useful expressions. After class you are to copy them into your notebook.
All right, read the text the fourth time and circle all the signal words, or the linking words which connect all the short sentences.
Now you may read the statements in the box on page 6 following the text. Write “T” or “F” beside each statement.
3b Writing a letter
Your friend Lin Feng is having difficulties with her English. Write her a letter telling her how to become a better English learner.
Dear Lin Feng,
I know it isn’t easy to learn English, but I have some ideas that may help. You said you couldn’t understand people who talked fast. Well, you can try to listen for the most important words, not every word. It is difficult to understand by listening what you have not read or what you can’t understand well by reading. To listen well you have to read well. So keep on reading English. Listening and reading to the recording of the text is very important, too. Every text, after being read, should be listened to and read aloud to the tape. At first you may find it difficult to follow the reader reading aloud the text. Don’t worry. If you keep practicing you will be able to read aloud as fast as the native reader from the tape. And then you can understand people who talk fast in English.
Yours,
Tai Zuo
3c Writing an article
You have been learning English for at least three years. That is such a long time. Now think about the things that have helped you the most in learning English. Write an article telling others about them.
4 Doing an interview
Next we shall do an interview in groups of four. Ask the three group mates about learning English. Take notes of what they say. Tomorrow you shall stand to tell the class about their answers.
Q. What isn’t easy about learning English? A. Reading is not easy.
Q. What do you do about this? A. I try to cut the sentences into thought groups.
Q. What is your favorite way to learn more English? I read and read aloud a lot. These are the best way.
closing down by sing
To end this period let’s sing an English song.
Rain, rain, go away,
come again another day,
Little Johnny
Wants to play.
Rain, rain, go to Spain,
Never show your face again.
SELF CHECK
1.Filling in the blank
We shall make a check on our use of expressions first. Turn to page 7 and fill in each blank with the correct word given. Change the form of the word if necessary. Then make your own sentences with each word.
complete the sentences Make your sentences
1. You should write down new English words in a vocabulary list. Don’t trust your memory. Write it down.
2. If you don’t know how to spell new words, look them up in a dictionary. I don’t know how to spell your name.

2.Writing an article
Turn to page 7 and write an article about Xu Zheng using the notes on Xu and his essay.
Xu Zheng: a boy fond of English
Most people in the world speak English as a second language. And so does Xu Zheng.
Yesterday I asked Xu Zheng about his ways to learn English. He said he learns by making up conversations and speaking to friends in English. When I asked about studying pronunciation, he said he spent much time on it, but he still found native speakers’ pronunciation difficult to learn.
I said to him, “You are a computer student. Why are you so interested in English?”
“English popular in science. And it is popular around the world for computers,” he told me. “I like writing notes, watching movies and listening to pop songs. But I like reading in English online most, ” added he.
Xu Zheng is right. English can really help us understand many new things from other countries. Let’s learn from Xu Zheng. Let’s be fond of English, too.I
Reading: How do we deal with our problems?
As English is learned mostly through reading in China, we shall now turn to page 8 to learn to read the article entitled: How do we deal with our problem?
before reading, please go over the vocabulary list for reading on page 146. Get yourself familiarized with all the words and expressions to be found in the article.
While reading try to divide the sentences into thought groups and underline all the expressions useful to you. While you are reading it for the second time, try to circle all the linking words and try translating the text into Chinese.
How do we deal with our problem?
Rich or poor, young or old, we all have problems. And unless we deal with our problems, we easily become unhappy. Worrying about our problems can affect how we do at school. It can also influence the way we behave with our families. So how do we deal with our problems? There are many ways.
by learning to forget
Most of us have probably been angry with our friends, parents or teachers. Perhaps they said something you didn't like, or you felt unfair. Sometimes, people can stay angry for years about a small problem. Time goes by, and good friendships may be lost.
When we are angry, however, we are usually the ones affected. Perhaps we have seen young children playing together. Sometimes they have disagreements, and decide not to talk to each other. However, this usually does not last for long. This is an important lesson for us: we can solve a problem by learning to forget.
by regarding problems as challenges
Many students often complain about school. They might feel they have too much work to do sometimes, or think the rules are too strict. We must learn how to change these ”problems“ into ”challenges“. Education is an important part of our development. As young adults, it is our duty to try our best to deal with each challenge in our education with the help of our teachers.
by thinking of something worse
by comparing yourself to other people, you will find your problems are not so terrible. Think about Stephen Hawking, for example, a very clever scientist, who regards his many physical problems as unimportant. He can't walk or even speak, but he has become very famous and successful. We are probably quite healthy and smart. Let's not worry about problems. Let's face the challenges instead.
After reading, copy the underlined expressions into your Phrase Book as home.
Expressions from How do we deal with our problem?
Rich or poor, young or old, have problems, deal with one’s problems, become unhappy, worry about one’s problems, do well at school, influence the way, behave well with…, deal with one’s problems, be angry with…, feel unfair, stay angry for years about…, time goes by, lose good friendships, see… playing together, have disagreements, talk to each other, last for long, an important lesson for…, solve a problem by learning to forget, regarding problems as challenges, complain about school, have too much work to do, the rules are too strict, change…into…, an important part of one’]s development, as young adults, be one’s duty, to try one’s best, to deal with…in one’s education, with the help of…, thinking of something worse, comparing…to…, find one’s problems, think about…, for example, a very clever scientist, regards…as unimportant, become very famous and successful, worry about…, face the challenges

Procedures
Warming up by learning “used to ”
Hi, everyone. Today we’re going to study Unit 2. Its title is I used to be afraid of the dark. In the title we find a phrase “used to ”. What does it mean? How is it used in English?
Used to的用法
“used to加不定式”表示过去常常干某事，现在不在干了。
例如:
I used to go to work by bus. Now I take a taxi.
She used to be very shy.
“be used to doing”表示习惯于干某事。
【例如】
I am used to getting up early and going to bed early.
He is used to being praised by others.
So the sentence “I used to be afraid of the dark.” means in Chinese: 我过去常害怕黑暗。
注意“used to”的疑问形式和否定形式：
-Did you use to be afraid of the dark?
-Yes, I used to be afraid of the dark.
-Did he use to be afraid of the dark?
-No, he did not use to be afraid of the dark.

3a Talking and checking
On page 12 is a list of things people are usually afraid of. Put checks √ in the first two columns to mark the ones you used to be afraid of and the ones you are still afraid of.
Everyday is afraid
We all have fears from time to time. That's true no matter how big we are or brave we can be. Fear can even be good for you sometimes and even help you stay healthy. Fear of getting too close to a campfire may save you from a bad burn. And fear of getting a bad grade on a test may make you study more.
being a bit on edge can also sharpen your senses and help you perform better in a recital or during a track meet. Some people even enjoy being a little scared. That's why they like to watch scary movies - or go on roller-coaster rides.
3b Doing pairwork
In pairs ask and answer questions as are shown (below) on page 12.

He used to cause a lot of trouble.
Martin Murray is a fifteen-year-old boy. He used to be a ”problem child', but a recent conversation with his mother changed is life. He didn't use to give his mother many problems. However, after his father's death a few years ago, Martin’s life became much more difficult. His mother couldn’t afford to pay for her children's education. To do this, she had to work, and so was not often at home.
His mother looked after him as well as she could. Unfortunately, Martin still caused problems for himself and his family. He was not interested in studying, and he often got into trouble with the police. Luckily, his mother was very patient, and didn’t give up trying to help him. In the end, she made a difficult decision: to send him to a boys' boarding school. Martin hated it and used to cause a lot of trouble. One day, he told his teacher he wanted to leave the school. Even the teacher agreed that Martin was wasting his time.
The head teacher said it was necessary to talk with his mother. Martin called his mother, but to his surprise, this phone call changed his life. “It was exactly what I needed,” he said. “My mother helped me to understand how much she had given me. She also told me that even though my father was no longer with us, he was watching me, and would always take pride in everything good I do. That’s when I decided to change. I realize that since my father died, I have been afraid of being alone, and have tried to make my mother pay more attention to me.”
Now Martin has really changed. He has been working hard, and is now a top student in his class.
How was he able to change? His mother’s love helped him to feel good about himself, and as Martin himself says, “It’s very important for parents to be there for their children.”
After you read-copy all the underlined expressions into your notebook.

Now let’s read to find out who invented tea. While you read, circle all the linking words and underline all the useful expressions.
Who invented tea?
Do you know that tea, the most popular drink in the world（after water）, was invented by accident? Although tea wasn’t brought to the Western world until 1610, this beverage was discovered over three thousand years before that. According to an ancient Chinese legend, the emperor Shen Nong discovered tea when he was boiling drinking water over an open fire.

3b Writing an article
On page 72 you will find notes in the box on the left. Write an article using the notes about the invention of the flying disk.
From pie plate to flying disk
A baker named William Russel Frisbie, of Warren, Connecticut, and later of Bridgeport, came up with a clever marketing idea back in the 1870s. He put the family name in relief on the bottom of the light tin pans in which his company’s homemade pies were sold. The pans were reusable, but every time a housewife started to bake a pie in one, she would see the name Frisbie and, it was hoped, think, “How much easier to buy one”. Eventually Mr. Frisbie’s pies were sold throughout much of Connecticut, including New Haven.
There, sometime in the 1940s, Yale students began sailing the pie tins through the air and catching them. A decade later, out in California, a flying-saucer enthusiast named Walter Frederick Morrison designed a saucer-like disk for playing catch. It was produced by a company named Wham-O. On a promotional tour of college campuses, the president of Wham-O encountered the pie-plate-tossing craze at Yale. And so the flying saucer from California was renamed after the pie plate from Connecticut. Of course the name was changed from Frisbie to Frisbee to avoid any legal problems.

2 Writing about inventions on page 73
3000 BC - The abacus, built out of wood and beads, used the concepts of one set of objects standing in for objects in another set, but also the concept of a single object standing for a collection of objects-positional notation.
- Early tables, named abaci, formalized counting and introduced the concept of positional notation.
- Early man counted by means of matching one set of objects with another set (stones and sheep).
Invention, history, inventor of, history of, who invented, invention of, fascinating facts.
The basic umbrella was invented over four thousand years ago. We have seen evidence of umbrellas in the ancient art and artifacts of Egypt, Assyria, Greece, and China.
These ancient umbrellas or parasols, were first designed to provide shade from the sun. The Chinese were the first to waterproof their umbrellas for use as rain protection.
Soon after telescopes were invented, people started to fasten two of the long tubes together to make binoculars (from the Latin “two eyes”).
Around 1900, a German physicist named Ernst Abbe made a pair of binoculars using prisms. The triangular prisms each reflected the incoming light twice. This meant it was possible to make a shorter instrument. The two prisms also flipped the image upright.
camera
The history of the camera - Camera Obscura, photography, the significant processes of photography, and who invented the polaroid and photographic film.
In 1818, Baron von Drais introduced a machine to the public in Paris. It had two in-line wheels connected by a wooden frame. The rider sat astride and pushed it along with his feet, while steering the front wheel.

Reading: Do you know when basketball was invented?
before you read, listen and read aloud to the recording of passage. Make your reading as close to the recording as possible.
While you read, divide (/) the sentences into groups of thought, circle the predicates in passive voice and underline all the useful expressions.
Do you know when basketball was invented?
If you travel around China/ you will notice a very popular activity /everywhere you go- basketball. This much-loved and active sport is enjoyed/ by all, for fun and exercise.
The sport of basketball is a little more than a hundred years old. It is played/ by more than 100 million people/ in over 200 countries /including China, where basketball has been played/ in parks, schools, and even in factories.
basketball was invented/ by a Canadian doctor/ named James Naismith, who was born/ in 1861. When he was at college, his class was once asked/ to invent a new game/ that could be played/ indoors/ during the long winters. Dr Naismith created a game/ to be played/ on a hard wooden floor, so/ the safety of the players/ was important. Knocking into players/ and falling down would be dangerous.
Dr Naismith divided the men/ in his class/ into two teams, and taught them/ how to play his new game. The aim of basketball is for players/ to try to get a ball/ into the “basket”: a net/ hanging from a metal hoop. Players shoot/ from below the basket, and sometimes/ the “backboard” is used/ for guiding the ball/ into the basket. Players move/ towards one end of the court/ while throwing the ball/ to each other.
It is believed that/ on December 21st, 1891, the first basketball game/ in history/ was played. Then/ in 1936/ in Berlin, it became an Olympic event. A team/ from China/ took part, and although they didn’t win/ they used the experience/ to help develop the game/ at home. Since then, the popularity of basketball has risen/ worldwide, and the number of foreign players/ in America’s NBA （National Basketball Association）has increased. Basketball has also become a more popular sport/ for people/ to watch, and many young people/ dream of becoming famous basketball players.

Part 2: Teaching Resources（第二部分：教学资源）
I.What is invention?
An invention is a new thing that someone has made. The computer was an invention when it was first made. We say when it was “invented”. New things that are made or created are called inventions. The car is an invention that everyone knows.
Ideas are also called inventions. Writers can invent characters, and then invent a story about them.
II. What is an inventor?
An inventor is a person who creates new inventions, typically technical devices such as mechanical, electrical or software devices or methods. Although some inventors may also be scientists, most of them are engineers in fact as they base their work on the discoveries of other scientists, experimenting with practical applications and combinations of those discoveries, and with improvements and combinations of existing devices, to create new useful devices.
The system of patents was established to encourage inventors by granting limited-term monopoly on inventions that are judged sufficiently novel. This system is nowadays frequently considered as being abused, especially in the United States, and some have called for reform or even abolition of the patent system. In the U.S., however, the patent right originates from the Constitution, so inventors will likely continue to protect their inventions that way for many years to come.
The capacity to invent can be developed. See TRIZ, the theory of inventive problem-solving.

Part 2: Teaching Resources (第二部分：教学资源)
I. What is UFO?
A UFO or unidentified flying object in the original, literal sense is any airborne object or optical phenomenon, detected visually or by radar, whose nature is not readily known. Interest in these objects stems from continued speculation that some of them may be the products of extraterrestrial intelligence.
A UFO -- fact or fiction?
Perhaps the best scientifically accepted definition of a UFO was provided by the late astronomer Dr. J. Allen Hynek: “A UFO is the reported perception of an object or light seen in the sky or upon the land the appearance, trajectory, and general dynamic and luminescent behaviour of which do not suggest a logical, conventional explanation and which is not only mystifying to the original percipients but remains unidentified after close scrutiny of all available evidence by persons who are technically capable of making a common sense identification, if one is possible.”
II.What is Alien or Extraterrestrial life?
Extraterrestrial life is life that may exist and originate outside our planet Earth. Its existence is currently hypothetical: there is as yet no evidence of extraterrestrial life that has been widely accepted by scientists.
Speculative forms of extraterrestrial life range from humanoid and monstrous beings seen in works of science fiction to life at the much smaller scale of bacteria and viruses.
Extraterrestrial life forms, especially intelligent ones, are often referred to in popular culture as aliens or ETs. The putative study and theorisation of ET life is known as exobiology.

Unit 14 Have you packed yet?
Part 1: Teaching design (第一部分：教学设计)
Structures: Present perfect with already and yet
Target language: Have you watered the plants yet? Yes, I have already watered them?
Vocabulary: watered, travel guidebook, suitcase, beach towel, bathing suit, refrigerator, member, cleaned out, turned off
Learning strategies: Brainstorming, Role playing
Section A
Goals
●To learn to use Present perfect with already and yet
●To listen and talk about having a vacation
Procedures
Warming up by studying grammar
Grammar is so important that it should always be learned and made use of in class.
Today we shall learn to use “ Present perfect with already and yet”
Look at the two sentences:
Have you watered the plants yet? Yes, I have already watered them?
Do you understand the structure of the two sentences?
We shall make more sentences like those.
Have you finished your homework yet? Yes, I have already finished it?
Have you found your bike yet? Yes, I have already found it?
To use the “ Present perfect with already and yet” more in communication, let’s go on to page 110.
1a Thinking and writing
Have you been on a beach vacation yet? If you go on a beach vacation, what three things would you pack?
Think and write your ideas in the chart on page 110.
A beach vacation Sightseeing in a city
1. bathing suit 1. camera
2. umbrella 2. mobile phone
3. drinking water 3. bike
1b Listening and checking
A family are packing things for a beach vacation. Now listen to their talk, paying attention to the “ Present perfect with already and yet”.
Tapescript
Woman: Have you packed the beach towels yet?
boy: No, I haven’t. Can’t Judy pack them?
Woman: No, she’s busy. Could you please water the plants?
boy: I’ve already watered them.
Woman: Oh, thanks.
Man: What about the travel guidebook and the street map?
Woman: I’ve already bought the travel guidebook, but I haven’t got the street map yet.
Man: That’s OK. I’ll get it. Have you packed the camera?
boy: Yup. I’ve already put it in my suitcase.
Woman: Well, I guess that’s everything.
boy: Almost everything. We haven’t locked the windows yet.
And now check√ the chores listed below the family have already done.
√Packed the camera √Watered the plants
× Locked the window √Bought a travel guidebook
× Bought a street map × Packed the beach towels
1c Doing pairwork
Imagine that you are going to the beach for the vacation. Ask your family members if they have already made a good preparation. Paying attention to the “ Present perfect with already and yet” structure.

b: Yes, I have already bought a travel guidebook.
2a Listening and writing
Next is another recording of a conversation about chores done or to be done. Listen to the conversation for what Mark did and what Tina did. While listening also pay attention to the “ Present perfect with already and yet” structure.
Tapescript
boy: Mom and Dad said they want to leave in ten minutes. Are you ready, Tina?
Girl: No. I haven’t cleaned out the refrigerator yet. I have to do that right now.
boy: Tina! You’re unbelievable. What about your bike?
Girl:I’ve already put it in the garage. But I haven’t locked the
Garage yet. That’s your job, Mark.
boy: I know. I’ve already done most of my jobs. I’ve taken out the trash.
Girl: Have you fed the cat yet?
boy: Not yet. I’ll do it in a minute. Have you turned off your radio?
Girl: Yes, I have. I think we’re almost ready.
Now on page 111write before the 6 sentences M for Mark or T for Tina.
1.No. I haven’t cleaned out the refrigerator yet.
2.I’ve already put it in the garage.
3.But I haven’t locked the garage yet.
4.I’ve already done most of my jobs.
5.Not yet. I’ll do it in a minute.
6.Yes, I have. I think we’re almost ready.
2b Listening and matching
To match the questions below with the answers above in 2a, you shall listen to the tape again.
Have you fed the cat yet? →5
What about your bike? →2
Are you ready, Tina? → 1
Have you turned off your radio? →6
2c Doing pairwork
To practice spoken English you are to role play a conversation using the information from 2a and 2b.
A: Are you ready, Tina?
b: No, I haven’t cleaned out the refrigerator.
b: No, I haven’t put the food in the garage yet.
b: No, I haven’t locked the garage yet.

3a Reading and underlining
Here on page 112 is an e-mail message from Crystal. Now read it and underline all the different chores mentioned in it.
Subject: So busy！ From: Crystal
Hi Jake,
Sorry I couldn’t get back to you sooner. I have so many chores to do today. I have to do my homework, of course. I started about an hour ago, but I haven’t finished. Then I have to take the dog for a walk, water my mom’s plants, and do some shopping. I haven’t done any of those things yet because my grandfather came to chat to me. He loves talking, and I love listening to him. He started telling me about all of the chores he had to do when he was a kid. He had to get up at 5 am and chop wood and light the fire for breakfast. Then he had to collect water from the village well. Then he had to feed the animals-he and his family lived on the farm.
Anyway, I have to run now.
Take care,
crystal
Now read the message again to blacken the expressions and circle the “Present perfect with already and yet” structure.

The rhythm section of a jazz band consists of the drums, bass, and usually at least one instrument capable of playing chords, such as a piano or guitar. The rhythm section is the foundation for the band; it sets the feel for the piece.
The horn section consists of wind instruments, which play the melody and main accompaniment.

There's such a lot of world to see
We're after the same rainbow's end
Waiting round the bend

Reading: He’s already visited the place where his ancestors lived.
before you read, listen to the recording, for the forms and for the meanings.
While you read, circle the “ Present perfect with already and yet” structure, underline the expressions and blacken the connectives.
Have you been back to the place where your ancestors lived, worked, studied and played? Robert Qian, a Chinese Canadian, already has. Now in China, he has found that his family is like a tall tree with long roots.
Robert is just one young overseas Chinese who has come to visit his ancestors’ homeland, as part of the In Search of Roots summer camp program. The program is organized by the local government of Guangdong Province. This program started in 1980, and so far has brought thousands of overseas Chinese students to China to look for their families’ roots. The young people are usually between 16 and 25 years old. Most, like Robert, can hardly speak any Chinese, and have never been to China before.
The students mainly visit parts of Guangdong Province in southern China. During the two-week camp, they study Chinese culture, see changes that have happened in that area, and visit interesting sights. Going to their ancestors’ village is often the most exciting part of the trip. The students feel that they are part of the village, and experience village life. They drink from the village well, go for walks through the countryside, and watch the villagers do their daily activities.
cathy Qin, a young American student, had this to say, “Thanks to In Search of Roots, I am beginning to understand my Chinese roots, and who I am. It has been a great trip, and I have so many memories of China to take with me.”

Part 2: Teaching Resources (第二部分：教学资源)
I. What is music?
Music is the art of making sound by human voice or special musical instruments like violin, oboe, trumpet, drum and so on.
In music, sounds are arranged in time to give a pleasing result. There are many different kinds of music.
Music is written using note symbols on a staff, which is a group of horizontal lines. The line which a note is written on shows what pitch it is. The notes are separated into measures using vertical lines on the staff.
II. What is a song?
A song is a piece of music which has words in. Old Macdonald had a Farm is a song.
Songs can be made in many ways. Some people form bands which write and record songs to make money from it. Other songs are folk songs, which are songs created by people long ago and have been sung as tradition in many countries. Some people also make parodies of songs, which is changing the words of the song but keeping the tune. Parodies are usually made to make fun of a song or it's writer/singer.
III. Origins and Characteristics
chinese music can be traced back as far as the third millennium B.C. Manuscripts and instruments from the early periods of its history are not extant, however, because in 212 B.C., Shih Huang-ti of the Ch'in dynasty caused all the books and instruments to be destroyed and the practice of music to be stopped. Certain outlines of ancient Chinese music have nevertheless been ascertained. Of primary significance is the fact that the music and philosophy of China have always been inseparably bound; musical theory and form have been invariably symbolic in nature and remarkably stable through the ages. Ancient Chinese hymns were slow and solemn and were accompanied by very large orchestras. Chamber music was also highly developed. Chinese opera originated in the 14th cent. as a serious and refined art.

Part 1: Teaching design (第一部分：教学设计) Structures: Review of structures Target language: I think that animals should not live in zoos. I disagree with you. I feel that zoos provide clean and safe places for endangered animals to live. Vocabulary: manatee, cheetah, kangaroo, chimpanzee, recycle, aquatic, habitat, gentle, aggressive, playful, furry, gray, enormous, strong, spotted, underwater, mangrove, vegetation, swamp, save, environment, educate, public, politely Learning strategies: Classifying, Listening for specific information Section A Goals ● To review structures learned ● To listen and talk about animals Procedures Warming up by learning about animals Animals are living things. Plants can make their own food or energy from the light of the sun, but animals cant do this. Animals have to eat plants or other animals to get energy to live. Some animals eat only plants. We say that these animals are herbivores. Some animals eat onlymeat. We say that these animals are carnivores. Some animals eat both plants and meat. We say that these animals are omnivores. Plants cant move around, but most animals can move around. Animals are divided into groups. 1a Looking and describing On page 118 in the picture you will see a zoo with animals and visitors. Now choose adjectives listed in the box to describe the six animals. African elephants Chimpanzees Kangaroos Manatees Cheetahs Polar bears enormous noisy playful gentle, shy spotted, fast Furry, aggressive 1b Listening and circling Victor and Ginny are talking about animals. They are describing them with many different words. Now listen to their talk and circle the words used in 1a to describe the animals. Tapescript Boy: Hey, Ginny. What’s that big, furry animal in the pond? Girl: It’s a polar bear, Victor. They’re kind of aggressive. Boy: Are they? Looks like they really love water. Girl: Uh-huh. Boy: And what do you call those big, gray things in the water? Girl: They’re called manatees. Boy: What? Girl: Manatees. They’re very gentle and very shy. Girl: They’re cheetahs. The cheetah is the fastest animal on earth 1c Doing groupwork We humans are animals, too. So we are like animals in some ways. Now in groups of four, you are going to think of an animal that is the same as you are in some ways. Then you are to describe the animal and the others are to guess its name. A: I am like this animal because I am strong and intelligent. I like water, and I like to eat vegetables. B: You’re like an elephant. A: No. B: You’re like a manatee. A: Yes! A: I am like this animal because I am heavy and enormous. I like forests, and I like to go around the mountain. B: You’re like a chimpanzee. A: No. B: You’re like an elephant. A: Yes! A: I am like this animal because I like spotted clothing and I run the fastest in my school. B: You’re like a manatee. A: No. B: You’re like a cheetahs. A: Yes! 2a Listening and matching A boy is asking a man about animals he likes. Tapescript Boy: Can you tell us about the manatees, please? Man: Sure. We’re trying to save them. Boy: Why? Are they endangered? Man: Yes. There used to be a lot of manatees, but now there aren’t very many of them. Boy: Do you know how many there are? Man: At this point, there are only about 2, 500 in the U.S. In 1927, it was discovered that they were endangered. Since then, the government has passed laws to protect them. Boy: Where do they live? Man: Their favorite habitat is the water under the trees in mangrove swamps. Boy: And why are they endangered? Man: Some of the swamps have become polluted. Also, there sometimes isn’t enough food for all of them. As you can see, they’re large. The average manatee is about ten feet long and weighs about 1, 000 pounds. They need about 100 pounds of aquatic feed a day. Boy: Aquatic feed? Man: Oh, that’s underwater plants and vegetation. That’s what they eat. Now listen to their talk and match the words with the definitions in the box on page 119. 1. endangered →b. there aren’t very many of them. 2. mangrove swamps → d. a place where trees grow in water 3. habitat → a. the place where something lives 4. aquatic feed → underwater plants and vegetation 2b Listening and completing Next you are going to complete the chart on page 119 in the middle. Listen to the talk once more for the necessary information. Kind of animal Manatee Number 2,500 in the US Habitat the water under the trees in mangrove swamps Reason why they are endangered Some of the swamps have become polluted. Also, there sometimes isn’t enough food for all of them. description The average manatee is about ten feet long and weighs about 1, 000 pounds. They need about 100 pounds of aquatic feed a day. In the end you are going to read the tapescript.
