Period 3. Speaking Step 1. Revision Dictation: The teacher speaks the following sentences in Chinese, the Ss write them down in English. The time when I first met Nelson Mandela was a very difficult period of my life. He offered guidance to poor black people on their legal problems. I worried about whether I would become out of work. We were put into a position in which we had either to accept we were less important, or fight the Government. It was very dangerous because if I was caught I could be put in prison. I knew it would help us achieve our dream of making black and white people equal. Step 2. Talking Ss answer the question: What are the qualities you should find in a great person?
