(ss practice in pairs.) (after several minutes.) s: problem: more and more serious air pollution reason: the main reason is that someone burns some plastics.they have got some wires and they want to get the copper core, so they burn the plastics outside. my ideas for action: the government should take some measures to stop such kind of phenomenon. these people should be told about the effect on the burning. they should learn some skills to earn their living.... t: you are very good at observation.now write a letter to draw attention to these problems and begin to solve them.remember to begin your letter politely.then explain the problem clearly and set your ideas to solve it.finally, finish the letter politely. (students write the letter.teacher goes around the classroom and deals with any difficulties.) (after about ten minutes.) t: now who’d like to read your letter in front of the class? s: let me have a try. s: dear sir or madam, there is a very serious problem in my neighborhood.every afternoon, there is a terrible smell in the air.people in my neighborhood even dare not open the windows.later, we find some people are burning some plastics.they try to get some wires during the day, and burn the outside part of the wires in order to get the copper core to sell them.this is their way of earning some money. i think the government mush pay special attention to this phenomenon.the smell from the burnt plastics is disgusting.it is very bad to people’s health.the government should take some measures to stop such phenomenon.in order to prevent these people from doing so, i think, people should also tell them about the effect of the burning.it’s also bad to their own health.and thirdly, these people should learn some skills to earn a living, instead of picking up rubbish and selling it. thank you for any help you can give.yours sincerely,
jim t: excellent. step 8 homework t: after class go over what we have learned in the whole unit and get well prepared for a test tomorrow.
