Step I Greetings and Lead-in
T: Good morning / afternoon, class!
Ss: Good morning / afternoon, Mr / Ms...
T: We have known each other for more than one month but do you know where I come from? You can guess. Perhaps some of you have known it.
Ss: Are you from Xi’an?
T: Yes, you are right. I come from Xi’an. It is a very beautiful city and one of the six ancient capitals in China. Have you been there? And how much do you know about it?
S: Xi’an is the capital of Shannxi province. And it is famous for its delicious food and tourist attractions. Though I haven’t been there, I have learnt a lot about it by watching TV.
T: Then do you know what the most famous tourist attraction is?
S: I think the most famous thing in Xi’an is the Terracotta Warriors and Horses of Emperor Qin Shihuang.
T: Yes, every year thousands of people from other parts of China or from other countries visit the Emperor Qin’s Terracotta Museum. Have some of you visited it?
S: Last summer I have visited it with my parents. It is the biggest on-site museum in China. The museum looks quite elegant and delightful. Three main buildings of the museum, which are named Pit 1, Pit 2, Pit 3, were constructed on their original sites in different periods of time.
T: I believe you have learnt a lot of knowledge by visiting it about history, culture and human civilization.
S: Yes, I think so.
T: Very good. I suggest you visit famous tourist attractions all over our country when you have spare time. By doing this, you can enlarge your view and knowledge. OK! Besides the Emperor Qin’s Terracotta Museum, there are many other tourist attractions in Xi’an, such as the Huaqing Pool, Da Yan Tower etc. And the most famous food is Jiaozi dinner, Tang-style dinner and pancake soaked in mutton broth. They are all delicious. Welcome you to Xi’an and welcome you to visit my home. There I live with my parents in a two-storey house, which is in a suburb in the southeast of the city. We have lived there for over ten years. OK. Today we are going to learn a new module about neighbourhood.
Step II Warming up
T: Now please look at some words on the screen and pick up those we can use to describe buildings. I will give you one minute.
Show the words on the slide.
apartment, apartment block, countryside, five-storey, local, high-rise building, mile, (second) floor, suburb, stone
T: Time’s up. Volunteer?
S: I think there are 6 words that can describe buildings. They are apartment, apartment block, five-storey, high-rise building, (second) floor and stone.
T: Yes, you are right. What about the other words?
Ss: The others can be used to describe where the buildings are.
T: Well done. Now please open your books to page 31. Read the two short passages carefully, then decide if the sentences on the screen are true or false. If they are false, please correct them. I will give you two minutes to complete them.
While the students are reading the passages, show the sentences on the slide.
1. Zhang Hua lives with his parents in the center of the city.
2. Lin Xiaoyun lives in the countryside in southern Liaoning, about thirty miles away from the city of Dalian.
3. Lin’s parents have recently built a house which is two storeys high.
After two minutes.
T: Who will tell us if the sentences are true or false? Volunteer?
S: The first one is false. Zhang Hua lives with his parents in a suburb in the northeast of the city.
S: The second one is false. Lin Xiaoyun lives in the countryside in southern Liaoning, about fifty miles away from the city of Dalian.
S: The third one is correct.
Step III Speaking
T: Now please turn to page 38. Answer the questions of Activity 1 in FUNCTION AND SPEAKING. One question, one person.
Students answer the questions one by one.
Sample answers:
1. Tian’anmen Square is in the middle of Beijing.
2. The British Isles are near continental Europe.
3. Guangzhou is in the south of China.
4. The city Urumqi is in the northwest of China.
5. The Summer Palace is in the suburb of Beijing.
6. We can see the high-rise buildings of Pudong across the water.
Combine Activity 3 on page 31 with Exercise 17 on page 90 in WORKBOOK. Make the students work in pairs to discuss the questions on the slide.
T: Now please work in pairs. Describe your homes according to the questions on the screen, and compare your homes. A few minutes later, I’ll ask some pairs to act out your dialogues.
Show the questions on the screen.
1. How big is your flat / house?
2. Where is your flat / house located?
3. Is it close to your school?
4. Is it close to your parents’ place(s) of work?
5. Do you like your neighbourhood?
6. Do you have good neighbours?
7. Are there parks or other public facilities nearby?
8. Is there good public transportation?
9. Are there markets and shops nearby?
After they have finished, ask one or two pairs to repeat their dialogues in front of the class.
A sample dialogue:
S1: I live with my parents in a fifteen-storey apartment which is in a suburb in the southeast of Beijing. Our apartment isn’t very big. Because it isn’t close to either our school or my parents’ places of work, we have to take bus everyday. Fortunately, there is very good public transportation. What about you?
S2: I also live with my parents. We live near our school in a flat which isn’t big, either. Everyday I walk only about five minutes to get to school. But my parents have to take bus to get to their places of work. By the way, are your neighbours kind and good?
S1: Yes, they are all kind people. We get along quite well with each other. We always visit each other at our leisure.
S2: You know, in 2008, the 29th Olympic Games will be held in Beijing. In recent years, Beijing has taken on a new look. More and more high-rise buildings have been put up and the air has become fresher and fresher. However, I only know the condition of urban districts, what about the suburb?
S1: The same thing has happened to the suburb.
Step IV Homework
T: Today, we’ve learnt how to describe the neighbourhood and direction, and we’ve also learnt some new words and useful expressions. You should review them after class. Besides, collect some information about the city of Xiamen. OK! That’s all for today. See you tomorrow!
