Ask the students to read the diary again by themselves. Then discuss in groups of 4 and practice Activities 3~4. A few minutes later, ask some of them to show their work.
Sample answers:
Reasons for omitting:
1. Some unimportant, unnecessary, uninteresting little words like pronouns “we”, “I”, articles “a”, “the”, or prepositions. If omitted, the meaning can’t be affected and misunderstood by others.
2. Just keep the key words without explaining more in details.
Ask students to rewrite the diary entry.
A sample version:
On the next day, I teamed up with a couple from my hotel (Peter and Terri) and hired a car. We spent all day driving around city. There’s a great drive marked out for tourists. It has blue and white signs with seagulls on them to show way to go. It’s a 79km round-trip that takes in all the famous spots. We stopped many times to admire the view and take photographs. Now we have really good idea of what the city’s like.
In the evening, I went to Chinatown with Peter and Terri. Chinese immigrants settled in this area in the 1850s. The fronts of the buildings are decorated to look like old buildings in southern China. There are some interesting temples here, and a number of markets and a great many restaurants. Also there are art galleries and a museum containing documents, photographs and all sorts of objects about the history of Chinese immigration, but it’s closed in the evening. We will go back during the day. We had a delicious meal and then walked back down the hill to our hotel.
Step Ⅳ Homework
Ask the students to finish Activity 5 on page 9.
Show the following on the screen.
Description of a place
Just as an artist uses paint to create a picture, a writer uses words to create a description... Desriptive writing creates a picture of a person, place, thing or event. A description essay is generally developed through sensory details. Here are some tips about the description.
1. Selecting details: The writer should choose those that help to bring out the dominant characteristic.
2. Catching the features of the place: You should mainly write about the things that make it different from other places.
3. Giving your view points: Places may be described for their own sake, as in essays on visits to famous scenic places.
4. Giving your purpose: You should describe the place for the purpose of revealing the personality and character of a person, or creating a feeling or mood.
