i. pre-reading
life is not always smooth, but with submerged rocks here and there, now and then. when faced with unexpected diseases or disasters or even death, what attitude to choose is a question.
q: for example, if you found out that you had an incurable disease, how do you think your life would change? and how would you act towards the change?
-- born dying with aids, xiaohua says, “my life may have to be short, but there’s no reason why it can’t be beautiful.”
-- diagnosed with cancer, ‘i’ also have something to say to you. now let’s see what ‘i’ will say to you.
ii. while-reading
questions:
q1: how did cancer change the writer’s life?
q2: compare the writer’s situation with that of xiaohua. in what way are their experiences similar or different?
q3: do their experiences strike you?
q4: what have you learnt from them?
(get the students to put emphasis on some language points, especially how the writer expresses what he thinks. e.g.
i remember having an empty feeling in my stomach and thinking that my life was going to end.
there were days when i wished that i were dead so that i would not have to feel so sick.)
