and I can rent it to somebody else since I am too busy to run it myself. And thus I can give my old house a second life. Thank you very much! Would you like to come in and have a cup of tea in my teahouse some day?
32
Step 3. Fast reading on “ Factory 798 ”
--- Thank you for your ideas to give my old house a second life. And the same story goes with
another old factory which is no longer used in Beijing. It is the famous place called ―Factory 798‖.
Has anybody ever heard of that? If no, let‘s open our books and read the passage on Page 23. Try
to find out: ―What is Factory 798? ‖
< Ss fast reading for a few minutes. >
--- Who has found out the answer?
? an old army factory ; an arts centre;
Step 4. Careful reading

--- Now, let‘s listen to the tape and get a better understanding of the text. Please follow the tape in a low voice and pay attention to the pronunciation of the new words and phrases which you‘re not
sure of. At the same time, please try to find out the following new language points in the text and
see how much you can understand them in English.
33
< Show the language points on the screen. >
1. pull down
2. stand
3. with… aid
4. remind … of
5. set aside
Step 6. Retelling
--- Now it‘s time for you to read the text by yourselves and try to summarize the text. That is to
say, suppose you are a journalist from CCTV 9 and you‘ve just paid a visit to the famous Factory
798. Please make a TV program to introduce Factory 798 to our citizens in your own words. I‘ll
give you three minutes to read through the text by yourselves and get prepared for the retelling, OK?
Step 7. Discussion
--- In almost every city around the world, there are old buildings which are no longer used, such as schools, hospitals, factories or even churches. What do you think people should do with them? Why?
?To pull down the old buildings and set up new modern ones to keep up with the pace of the society.
?New uses should be given to old special buildings. It‘s a great way to save the architecture from
the past.
Step 8. Writing.
--- Since we all agree that giving the old special buildings new uses is a great way to save the architecture from the past, now it‘s time for you to have a practice and show your ability. You know our school is moving to the new campus now and the old campus will be left empty then. Suppose you are young painters, artists, musicians, and you can rent some parts of the school building to practice. How do you want to change the school buildings? What new uses can be given to the old school buildings? Please work in groups and make a plan about it.
Step 9. Homework.

People invented poetry as they help to remember things. Before the invention of writing, there was no other way but to remember important things. People early discovered that rhyme and rhythm were very helpful when they are trying to remember things. So they made poems to help them remember all the things they needed to know and passed on from generation to generation. For example to remember their history. They recited great stories about their ancestors and the wars that were fought.
(Collect the answers from the students.)

Step1 Greeting & Lead-in
(At the beginning of the class, show the Ss a poem----twinkle, twinkle little star) T:Just now, we enjoined a bit interesting poem. How do you feel about the poem? (Ss may have different ideas). For myself, I like it. When I read the poem, it seems that a clear picture is shown before me. In the dark sky of night, there are thousands of stars that twinkle in the sky! So in this way, poem tells us about nature and shows us the beauty of nature. No wonder there are many poets expressing themselves by writing poems!
Step 2 Warming-up
T: You know there are many poems existing in the world, and China has a long history of poems ranging from Li Bai, Du Fu in the ancient times to Guo Monuo in the modern times. Can you recite some Chinese poems in a vivid way?

Step 3 Speaking
1.T: It seems that you have mastered Chinese poems well.
1) Do you all like the poems written by Li Bai or Du Fu?

English poetry well, so it’s easy for you to express your feelings about poems.
2.T: The circles below give you ideas of topics for poems, periods of time, groups or names
of poets and human feelings in poems. Work in groups. Ask each other questions about the
kind of poetry your classmates might want to read. Choose a word from each circle and 40
explain why you would /would not like to read a poem like that. You can repeat the exercise a
few times.
3. T: When you are practising with your partner, do remember to use the useful expressions listed in your book.
Step 4 Talking
T: A wonderful job! You all can express yourselves freely and use the expressions very well. Your ideas all sound reasonable. Though poems are beautiful and they can sometimes explore our inner motions, yet still many other people don‘t like them, for they think they are too sensitive. So some people are worried about their disappearing.
T: Read the following passage and decide whether poetry is getting more popular or whether it is disappearing. Explain why you think so.
------Poetry is dead! There are few people who read poetry in their free time. Who cares? However, some people do care. They think it is important to stop poetry disappearing from culture life.
One way to save poetry is by proving that poetry is alive and around us everywhere. Poetry is not something for students of literature: an advertisement is just as much a poem as a Shakespeare sonnet(十四行诗).
Poetry festival can make poetry more popular .At festivals, poets and audiences get together to read and listen to poetry. The song texts of hip-hop and rap music are often regarded as a new type of poetry of our time. Long live poetry.

poetry,
T:(GW)Those who think poetry will be more popular, please sit on the left side of the class, and
you are side A; And those who think poetry will disappear, please sit on the right side of the
class, and you are side B. Then discuss the topic with your group members (4 Ss a group) and
last let‘s share your ideas. And the monitor will be the judge to host the discussion.

a shining star in the sky of literature. There are still many points for us to appreciate. Enjoy
poems, enjoy your life!
Step 5 Homework

2. No matter how well it is translated, something of the spirit of the original work is lost. T: From the sentences we‘ve discussed, we know that if the past participle is used as adverbial, we can change them into the adverbial clauses, which has the same meaning. Now turn to Page 30. Please look at Grammar Part 1.Complete each sentence by using the past participle of the right verb. Before doing that, who will tell the meanings of the words in the box? Suggested answers:
1. Frightened 2. followed 3. examined 4. Built 5. Seen 6. trapped 7. shot Step 4 Practice

堡,再也没有重建。
2. In the second sentence, ― left alone on a deserted island‖ is used as adverbial, expressing condition. The meaning of the whole sentence is: ―如果你流落到一个荒凉的岛上,为了生存下
去,你会怎么办呢,
Now look at Part 2 and decide the function of each past participle phrase. You can do it in pairs or groups.
Step 5 Consolidation
T: Look at the example on Page 30. Here are two sentences. They both have the same meaning but their adverbials are expressed in the different ways. Study the example and then rewrite the sentences on Page 31, using a clause to substitute the past participle phrase. Suggested answers:
1. When he was asked what had happened, he told us about it.
2. As he was well known for his expert advice, he received many invitations to give lectures, 3. If we were given more time, we would be able to do the work much better. 4.

B. Followed by many students, the teacher came in.
T: Well done, so far we have finished learning the present and past participle used as adverbial. Let‘s have a revision and make a comparison.
1.共同点: 现在分词和过去分词在句中不能单独作谓语,但可作定语,表语,宾语补足语,状语.
49
分词作状语时,其逻辑主语是句子的主语.如:
正确:Looking from the top of the hill, we can see the whole town.. 错误:Being an orphan, the villagers take good care of the child. 正确:Seen from the hill, our school looks more beautiful. 错误:Seeing from the hill, our school looks more beautiful. 2.不同点: 现在分词有时态和语态的变化;而过去分词只有一种形式,现在分词常表‖主动‖和
―进行‖;过去分词的一般式常表 ―被动‖和 ―完成‖.
式 语态 及物动词及物动词
make的主动make的被动不及物动词rise
语态 语态
现在分一般式 making being made rising
词 完成式 having made having been having risen
made
过去分词 made risen
3.易混淆点:
a.分词作伴随状语时,若表‖正在被……‖ 的概念,常用过去分词,而不用现在分词的被动式.
Followed by some officials, Napoleon inspected his army. b.现在分词的完成被动式和过去分词两者都可表示 ―完成‖和 ―被动‖,但前者更加强调分词
动作明显先于谓语动作;而后者的时间性不强.
Having been told to stay in Beijing, the boy decided not to return to his village.

Record after teaching:
The Second Period Speaking
Step 1.Lead-in
T:As far as we know, today people in the world are paying more attention to the spirit of team
work. We almost need to discuss together when we do everything. And more and more views and
points are tolerated . By the way, if we agree or disagree to do something, what can we use to
express ourselves?
(Teacher writes students‘ answers and some other expressions on the screen.)
Useful expressions:
Don't you think that…?
I don't think that's right…
I don't think so.
You must be mistaken…
No, you are wrong thinking that…
I'm afraid you are wrong…
I believe that you've got it right. I'm not so sure about that…
Surely it must be…
Yes, you are right, but…
Aren't you confusing… ?
Yes. I agree with you.
Step 2. Make up dialogues
Ask the Ss to use these expressions to make up a dialogue in pairs in the following situation:
In October, the school meeting will be held. Some students who will take part in 3000-meter-race
55
think that they need sports shoes to run faster and that our class should pay the bill instead of themselves because they can make contributions to our class. What do you think about it?
Step 3 .Debate
T: Now open your books at Page 34.
Go through the three statements together , while dealing with some words and phrase (consist of /statements/power/advantage/have advantage over)at the same time. Ask them to summarize these statements into three topics. Then divide the class into three groups and each group will discuss
one topic and debate which point of view is reasonable.
Group Topics Why?
1 Is English easy or difficult to learn for Chinese people?
2 Can we learn the geography more easily by going there?
3 Which countries have more chances to become rich, small , big or island countries?
(Then teacher asks three pairs to present their dialogues.)
Sample dialogues:
1. A: How are you getting on with your English?
B: Very badly. I find it difficult to learn.
A: Why do you think so?
B: As you know, we have to learn a lot of words and phrases by heart every day. And there are many grammar rules we have to follow.
A: But I can't completely agree with you. In my opinion, it's easy to learn. As long as we master the basic grammar and speak it as often as possible, we can learn it well.
B: I don't think you are right. Personally, I think we have fewer chances to speak English. What's more, English and Chinese have little in common.
A: But I think we should find more chances to speak, just as we learn Chinese. If you speak, read
and listen as much as possible, you can find it easy to learn. B: That's a good idea. Thanks for your advice. I'll do my best to study it wall.
A: I'm sure that you will.
2. A: What are you doing?
B: I'm reading the geography book.
A: I think it is difficult to learn if you can't go to that country.
B: I don't think so. You often look at maps carefully and remember all the names of cities and provinces.
A: I'm afraid I don't agree with you. I think those names are very confused and we can learn it easily by going there.
B: Certainly visiting some places is better in learning geography. But we can't go to all places of the world. That's too expensive and we don't have enough time, too.
A: Of course you are right. Now computers are used in many fields. You can get as much
information as possible about the countries you want to know through the Internet.
B: That's a good idea. I'll try it.
3. A: Hello. Can you tell me which are the countries that make up the Group of Eight?
B: Yes. It consists of eight richest countries in the world. They are Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Australia, Japan, America and Russia. Five of them are quite small and two of them are island countries.
A: Do you think small countries have better chances than big ones to become rich?
56
B: I don't think so.
A: Why?
B: First small countries have few natural resources. They're very important for a country. Second, their labour force is limited. As a result, that prevents their economy developing fast.
A: I can't quite agree with you. In fact many small countries are very rich.
B: Yes. Though some countries are small, people of these countries can get good education and make their countries become powerful by developing science and technology. For example, Japan has few natural resources, but it can develop its education and use other countries resources as many as possible to develop its economy.
A: It may be true. Do island nations have more advantages than other countries?
B: Certainly. Island countries have more convenient traffic and they also have more sea resources.
A: I agree with what you said.
Step 4 Summary and Homework
T: Today we've practiced speaking English a lot. We've also learnt many useful
expressions to express our own opinions. (Pointing to the blackboard and the screen. ) After class,

Q1: While talking about AIDS, what other diseases can you think of?
Individual work: Let students brainstorm the names of diseases, such as cold, headache, toothache, diarrhoea, cut, coughing, scald, insomnia, heart attack, cancer, AIDS, etc.
(With the development of science and hi-tech, many diseases can be cured. But for now, AIDS is still incurable, so it‘s a deadly disease.)
3. How much do you know about AIDS?
1) Pair work—questions for discussion
stay or to be friends with them? Why?
(Students don‘t have to give the exact answers. These questions will help them think about this disease—AIDS.)

(Through these questions—
allenging an opinion on p.50. And
throughout the whole class, teachers should try to use these expressions as many as possible to raise students‘ awareness.
2) As has just been talked about, AIDS is not only a personal problem, but also a social one. Because when we talk about social problems, we mean crimes such as drug use, murder, theft or robbery and broken families. These social problems cause sadness, unhappiness, harm, fear and even wars in the world or in society. Besides, there are quite a few other social problems. Can you tell some? Can you use your own sentence to describe one of these social problems? (Possible answer: crime, health, homelessness, poverty, gambling, family violence, divorce, unemployment)
3) Information input
Give students some information about how serious these problems are and ask them to take notes. Then they can decide what is the most serious.
(Refer to the PowerPoint Proper explanation is needed).
1. How many AIDS patients all over the world? Where are they? And are they young or old? 2. What kinds of social problems can AIDS cause?
3. How about the situation in China?

III. Post-speaking
Conclusion—Class discussion
Q: Could these social problems be avoided? Or could we get rid of social problems in modern times? What can we do to deal with them?
(Social problems are around us. They can‘t disappear in modern society. But we can do something optimistic or positive to reduce the harm they cause. That‘s why we youth are asked to get away from AIDS, drugs, etc. That‘s why we youth should develop good habits. That‘s why many people
including famous stars are busy with telling others the harm. In this way, we can stay healthy both physically and mentally.)

Show more pictures of people infected with HIV or AIDS.
(I‘m afraid not. Like any father, ―Jeremy is my whole life. Every dad dreams of watching his kid grow up and graduate from high school. I never thought that would happen for us because Jeremy and I are both HIV positive. But thanks to our new family clinic, we both have access to the treatments we need. Now maybe I will see Jeremy walk down the aisle with the class of 2017‖.[Here give the students several minutes to chew and digest these words.] Like any 12-year-old child, Xiaohua is a happy girl who smiles a lot and likes to talk to her friends after school.

(Break down/ defenceless/treatment/not available/incurable)
Q2: Why do the young suffer the most?
(As with many diseases, children seem to suffer the most from AIDS, mainly because of a lack of proper health care, prevention and education. Even if they themselves are not infected, the disease can ruin their lives. They may have to care for sick relatives and are often unable to go to school. Living with a parent or parents who have AIDS is painful and difficult. Because the parents cannot work, the children may not have enough food and must help take care of the family.)

AIDS is a disease that breaks down the body's immune system and leaves a person defenceless against infections and illnesses. People get AIDS after having been infected with HIV, the virus that causes the disease. There are millions of people who die of AIDS every year. So far, there is no treatment available for the disease and AIDS patients have to deal with the fact that they might die young. Unfortunately, a deadly disease such as AIDS also frightens others. Because of a lack of knowledge about how it gets transmitted, people often treat AIDS patients as if they were bad or dangerous.
