step iii warming-up
t: yes. you have done a really great job in searching through the internet. i
also get some information about england.
t: can you describe the cities and countries in england?
sa: i'll try. in the cities, we can see many tall buildings, many cars and many big        supermarkets. the streets are wide and clean. people drive cars to go to work.    
sb: in the countries, sheep can be seen everywhere. there are large farms,        clean rivers and rich fields. also we can see many hills. in a word, people in        the countryside live a rich and peaceful life.
step iv listening
t: we've talked a lot about england, its places of interest, its people and their        life, its geography, education and so on. now we'll listen to the tape to learn something about the students' school life there. first go through the listening exercises on page 33 and page 34.
 (students begin to read the instructions. two minutes later, teacher says the following. )
t: do you know what you should do after you listen to the tape?
ss: yes.
t: now let's begin. when i play the tape for the first time, just listen to get the       general idea.…
 (teacher plays the tape four times. teacher may pause for the students to write down some information and repeat some parts of the tape if necessary. if students have anything they don't understand, teacher may play more. finally, teacher checks the answers with the whole class.)
 step v speaking
 t：so much for listening. we often talk about study, sports, tv programmers, 
films, books and so on, expressing our own views and opinions. if we agree to do something, what can we use to express ourselves?
 sa: we can use such expressions as “certainly/sure/of course.” “yes. that's
 true/i think so/it's a good idea. ”
 “that's just how i feel. ”…
t: right. what about when we don't agree with others?
sb：we can use：“i don't agree with you. ” “i'm sorry, but i don't…”“i'm afraid     not.”… (teacher writes them on the blackboard. )
t：well done. there are many other expressions we can use to express ourselves. please look at the screen.
 (teacher shows 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.
