Greet the whole class as usual.
T：Yesterday we learnt the sentence patterns which express commands and requests.Who can tell me something about it？

D.Could you help me with my English？ S：I think D is the right answer. T：Could you tell me why？
S：Because A is not logical.B and C are commands.In last period we learnt that commands should be made by people who have authority.So I think here D is right.

Step 2 Talking （Workbook P48）
T：Great.Now let’s practise the sentence patterns by making up dialogues.So please turn to P48 and look at the part of talking.Please work in groups of four.And choose one situation to role-play.
（5 minutes for preparation） T：Now let’s begin. Possible version： Group 1：
A.（foreigner）：Excuse me，could you give me a hand？ B：Sure.You seem to be looking for someone.

A：Yes.My Chinese friends and I promised to meet at the exit of the subway.
B：Could you speak a bit slowly.I can’t quite follow you.I guess you are looking for your Chinese friends.
A：I’m sorry.I wasn’t noticing it just now.Yeah，we said that we would meet here—the exit of the subway at 2 p.m.And it is 2：15，but I still can not find them.
B：Exit 1 or Exit 2？
A：What do you mean？There’re 2 exits？ B：Yes.Here are two exits.So you should be sure which one is where you promised to meet.

S：...
T：So you see，there is some difficulty for people to understand the dialects.Right？So what we do while learning English？
S：We can learn standard English.
S：I don’t think so，because we have learnt that there’s no standard English actually.So I think what we should do is to pronounce better，and use the correct words and grammar.
Step 4 Listening （Ⅱ）
T：By reading the passage “ the road to modern English“，we have known English is a world language which is spoken in many countries and areas.In this period we will listen to native speakers from different English-speaking countries.Please move to P51 and look at Listening Task.Now several students in an international high school in Shanghai are describing where they come from.What do you think you will hear in their introduction？
S：I guess they will talk about the location，climate，people，custom，specific things，and so on.
T：You are very clever.We are introducing some place，most of time we will give some description of the climate，people，custom，people，history，places of interests，and so on.
T：Listen carefully，then tell which topics are mentioned. S：...
T：Good.Then I will play the tape again.This time you should try to guess the name of each student’s country.
S：...
T：Good job.This time，you should pay much attention to each student’s description.After listening it again，you should describe the country using your own words.
S：...
T：Well done!Now work in groups of four and discuss with your partners why English is spoken in so many places around the world.Make a list of the reasons and then report your group work with other groups.
