Step I Greetings and Revision
T: Good morning/afternoon, boys and girls!
Ss: Good morning/afternoon, Miss Zhao!
T: Sit down, please. Today we are going to learn Unit 2: English around the world, but I want to check your homework first.
Check whether they have remembered the ten important sentences.
Step II Warming up
T: Look at the picture and try to guess:
Qs: 1.What do you think is happening in the picture?
2. Where do you think is the man?
Sa: A funny story is happening.
Sb: The man is in the bathroom.
Ask the students to discuss the following questions.
1. What is Joe’s nationality? How about Nancy?
2. What it is that Nancy thinks Joe wants?
3. What is it that Joe is looking for?
4. What is their misunderstanding about?
After discussion.
Sa: Joe is an American while Nancy is British.
Sb: Nancy thinks Joe wants to have a bath.
Sc: Joe is looking for a toilet.
Sd: In American English the word “bathroom” means a place where there is a toilet and sometimes a bath or shower. In British English, the word “bathroom” means a place where there is a bath or shower and sometimes also a toilet. Joe wants to go to the toilet, but Nancy thinks he wants to take a bath.
T: You did quite well. There are really some slight differences between American English and British English, so in order to avoid misunderstanding, it is necessary for us to know about some differences between American English and British English.
Step III Speaking
T: Now, I think you must know about why the misunderstanding occurred between Joe and Nancy. Then turn your book to page10. Let’s do Speaking—Part Two. In the following box there are several useful expressions. These sentences are all about the language difficulties in communication. When we express our requests and orders, we use them. Here I give you a few minutes to remember these sentences.
Can you spell that, please?
Could you repeat that, please?
What do you mean by ...?
Could you speak a bit slowly, please?
Sorry, I didn’t follow you.
I beg your pardon?
How do you say ... in English?
How do you pronounce...?
What does ... mean?
Can you say that in a different way?
T: Now please work in small groups to make up dialogues about other language difficulties in pronunciation, spelling, grammar, uncertainty, misunderstanding, etc. and act out in class, using the useful expressions above.
