Ask them what cultural references there might be in a UK or US radio news report that they would have difficulty fully understanding.T: Hello, class!Ss: Hello, Mr. / Ms…T: In this lesson, we will start a new topic—Society. As usual, please learn the unit object ive s.Please read the unit objectives on P age 33 together and pay attention to the words in color.Ss: Discuss social issues, talk about society in the past and make suggestions…T: Well. Which object ive do you think is relatively difficult?S: I think the second object ive is difficult. I have difficulty fully understanding cultural references.T: En, what cultural references there might be in a UK or US radio news report. Ss: Maybe to places, objects, people and so on.After discussing, go on with Warm-up.Activity one: Describe the picturesT: We can see two pictures on the warm-up page. Who would like to tell us what you see from the picture s?S1: In the first picture, we can see many people get together. From their dress, I think they are English men and women. And they are wealthy. Men all wear business suits and top hats. Women wear elegant dress and jewelries.S2: In the second picture, we can see shabby buildings and people who wear ordinary clothes. Some people are doing business on goods shelf.T: Good. Why are the two pictures put together? What can they illustrate?S3: There is a remarkable contrast between the two pictures. I think they can illustrate some social problems—the difference s between the wealthy and the poor.S4: We all know most countries in the world have a type of social class system.England probably has the most obvious and clearly distinguished social class system of all. I think they can also reflect differences among social classes.T: You’ve both done very well. We’ll further study the English social class system in the l ater class. And today let’s see some social problems in W estern countries first.Activity two: Read new wordsShow the key words on the PowerPointT: Do you know all of them? If you know, please translate them; if not, you can look them up in the vocabulary list.…Now, please read after me, and pay attention to word stress.Activity three: DiscussAfter reading, l et the Ss discuss the question in Exercise 1 and then speak out their opinions.Possible statement:S1: I think inequality is the biggest problem. Because not everybody can benefit from the nation’s policy,t he rich become much richer while the poor become much poorer. Consequently, problems like begging and homelessness are on the increase.T: O K, you’ve done very well. A re there anyone who’d lik e to tell us different opinions?S2: I think poverty is the biggest problem. Because of poverty, many people commit crime s.T: W ell, what both of you said sounds reasonable. So much for the discussion. You can continue after class.Activity four: Deal with Exercise 2Before listening to the tape, look at some new words based on the topic of listening. Check their meanings with the class.T: Before listening to the tape, let’s look at some new words based on the topic of listening. Please read them after me.Show the following words on the PowerPoint.household n.一个家庭graph n. 图表voluntary adj. 自愿的abundant adj. 充足的life expectancy 预期寿命T: You will find household and graph in the Exercise2 and life expectancy in Exercise 3. Now please look at the topics and graphs in Exercise 2 and try to remember the figures. I’ll give you 15 seconds.15 seconds laterT: Are you ready? Now listen to the tape and match the topics with the graphs below. You should pay more attention to the percent of each topic.Let the Ss listen and match the topics with the graphs below.Then check the answers.Activity five: Deal with Exercise 3Give the Ss some time to read through the table and find out what information to listen for. Play the cassette twice for the Ss to listen and complete the table.Check the answers by having individuals say the ir answers and write them on the board.T: As the same, you have fifteen seconds to read the table and find out what information to listen for.15 seconds laterT: Well, what information are we to listen for?Ss: Figures.T: Yes. Listen to the tape and complete the table, please.T h en check the answers.Activity six: Deal with Exercise 4First, have students look at the key words. Then have two students read out the sample dialogue.T: In the box of key words, we can see some words describing trends. The first two lines reflect rise and the next two reflect decrease. And the last one reflects unstable situation. Do you know all of them? ... Who’d like to tell the difference between climb and rocket?S1: L et me try. I think rocket means increase very rapidly and climb means increase slowly.S2: I remember in the radio news, when the percent of households with cars and computers are referred, it says “The percentage of households with ca rs has climbed from 62% to 72%”, while “the percentage of households with computers has rocketed dramatically from around 3% to over 40%”, so I totally agree with him/her.T: Good, both of you have done well. Next which two would like to read out the sample dialogue?S3: The number of crimes has gone down over the last twenty years.S4: False. It has gone up by double.T: O K. Then work in pairs, taking turns to say true or false statements from memory about trends in British society just as the example.Go round and monitor the activity, helping and correcting whe n necessary.Step III ReadingAsk the Ss to read the text on P age 34 and learn what the write r says about consumer society.Pre-readingActivity one: Leading inT: I think you’ve heard that our salary has raised a lot over the past two years, haven’t you?Ss: Yes.T: We earn more and we live better day by day. Once, people in our country lived in a time of wars. At that time, people had little to live on. People went without food sometimes. In the movies, we can see that some people were eating bark when they were hungry. As a result of, they wouldn’t mind what they were wearing, and they only wanted to get more food to eat. After the People’s Republic of China was established, national reconstruction returned to normal. Under the leadership of the Communist P arty, people live a better life gradually. And the economy has developed greatly. Now, we live in a peaceful era. We are trying to build a harmonious society. We earn more year by year and we spend more too. From what one possesses, we can judge how wealthy one is. From the construction of a city, we can see how developed the city is. To some degree, we can judge a country by what its people possess. Now most countries devote main efforts to social economic development. In order to develop national economy, we as consumers are encouraged to buy houses, cars and so on to give an impetus to production. We call such a society “consumer society”.Activity two: Before you startDeal with Exercise 1T: Look at the photos and the title on P age 34 and work in pairs, reading the list and guessing which three things you think will not be mentioned in the article according to your own experience s.Activity three: Predict the purpose of the authorT: Guess what the writer’s purpose of writing is by using the multiple choices. Question: What is the writing purpose of the text?A.To inform people of a new kind of society.B.To encourage people to consume.C.To warn people of this spending trap.Key: CP art two: Read to learnDeal with Exercise 2. Ask students to skim the text and check their guesses.T: Now s kim the article to check your guesses from Exercise 1.A nswers:g lobal trade, crime and violence, drugsDeal with Exercise 3.Students work in groups of three o r four, discussing which of the writer’s views they agree and disagree with. And later each group speaks out their opinion.T: O K, read the text again, find out the writer’s views.A few m inutes laterT: What are the writer’s views?S: This article mainl y talks about “consumer society”. It says that today we earn more but we also spend more, and because we spend more, w e have to work harder and have less free time to enjoy the happiness of life. Moreover, we also spend on something unnecessary. It also says advertising should be more controlled.T: Do you agree with these views or not? W ork in groups of three or four, discussing w hich of the writer’s views you agree and disagree with. Give reasons.A sample discussion:S1: We agree with the author’s view on advertising. There’s so much advertising which encourage s young people to spend money. And many students visit shops in their free time instead of do ing something useful or helpful, so I think advertising should be controlled.S2: I find many people are encouraged to buy something they needn’t, just because they are on sale. S c:I agree with the writer’s view. We should visit the shops less and buy what we really need.S3: Recently, fast consuming appears in some places. People buy and change clothes frequently, which will contribute to a waste of resource. So I think people shouldn’t consumer blindly.T: Oh, very good. We should remember that“being”and“doing”are much more important than “having” when we seek for beauty.W e should also care about environment we live in.Teacher can ask one or two more students to tell their opinions.Step IV ExplanationDuring this procedure T eacher will play the tape for students. Students will underline the difficult sentence s. After listening to the tape, T eacher will explain the text and deal with language problems.T: Let’s deal with some difficult language focuses. Now I will play the tape for you. Please make a mark where you have difficulties.After listening to the tape, explain the difficult sentences to students. Before explain the difficult points, students are asked to refer to the notes to the text on P age 116-117.T: Do you have any difficulties with the text?S:Could you please explain the sentence to us: It’s high time that we took these issues more seriously.T: First, let’s analyze the sentence structure. In this sentence, the past tense should be used with took no matter what tense is used in“It’s high time that”.It’s high time that … is a sentence pattern often used in the subjunctive mood and in the grammar part, we will learn about it in details and do more practice. Do you have any other questions?… Well, there are many useful phrases in the text. Please sum up the phrases and do vocabulary exercises in the L anguage P ower.Step V VocabularyDeal with vocabulary in the L anguage P ower. Ask students to do the exercises individually. While they are doing the exercises, remind them that they should pay attention to the correct form of the given words and make necessary changes where needed. Then check the answers with the whole class.Step VI Analyze the textHelp students analyze the structure of the text. Ask students to discuss in group s and then speak out their opinions. After this, show the suggested answers on the P ower P oint.T: O K. Please discuss in group s and fill in the chart below to find the structure of the text.Part s ParagraphsMain ideaT: Please stop here. I’m glad you thought actively and had a heated discussion.

What is the text about?S1: Consumer society.S2: The text says that many of us are trapped in a spending circle.T: Quite good. How many parts can the article de divided into? What’s the main idea of each part?S3: In my opinion the article is made up of three parts. The first two paragraphs mainly tell us that we are trapped in the spending circle. The third paragraph tellsthat more and more people begin to resist this consumer society. The last paragraph says that as a society, we should take these issues more seriously.T: Excellent!If students have different opinions, teacher may help them analyze the text.Show the following on the PowerPoint:Step VII Summary and HomeworkT: We talked about problems with the British social development and know about the consumer society today.

5 Things You Must Buy Only during Sales and Save MoneyWe assume that most of our readers are really smart shoppers，but there may be some of you who might be missing the mark of getting great deals only because of bad timing.Yes，we're talking about the top 5 items you should buy only when there's a sale going on.1．Winter clothesAre you making the mistake of buying those expensive fur coats，windglasses，snow boots，hand gloves and all other winter accessories during winter time? That's a terrible mistake to make，folks.This is a top item that should be bought only during sales because its original price is really very high.If you plan your shopping just a little bit in advance of winter，you can save lots of money.2．BooksWith the ebook being more and more popular，buying and reading books are being extinct.The reason why this item should be bought only during sales is that it will give you the best value for money.Also，with books causing storage problems and magazines being good only for one time reading，buying these items during sales is the best way to go.3.CosmeticsAll the women out there will be flabbergasted when they see the kind of variety and the rates at which otherwise expensive cosmetics from brands like Dior，Maybelline，Revlon，M.A.C and the likes are available during sales time.Quit throwing off all your hard earned money on such expensive cosmetics and insist on buying these items only during sales to get great prices and bargains.4．Refurbished electronic appliances and gadgetsElectronic appliances and gadgets are items you must buy only during sales time from the refurbished division because paying a large price tag for its original cost is just a waste of money.After holiday season when a lot of people return unwanted gifts，they all hit the refurbished section and the prices are greatly cut down.Now，that's a good enough reason for you to buy these items only during the sales，isn't it?5．AlcoholOf course，we don't expect you to buy your regular supplies of affordable wine and beer during sales.But friends，for those occasional parties，we're sure you'd need to stock up with some good champagne，fine wine and heavily priced alcohol，right? We suggest you buy a stock of expensive alcohol only during sales time，especially in and around holiday season to get great rates.1．accessory n．附件2．cosmetic n. 化妆品3．insist on 坚持4．refurbish vt. 翻新；刷新；擦亮；使清洁；整修5．cut down 削减；降价1．In what time is better to buy expensive fur coats?________________________________________________________________2．Why are buying and reading books beingextinct?________________________________________________________________【答案】 1.In advance of winter. 2.Because the ebook is being popular.Section ⅠWarmup & ConsumerSociety—Preparing根据提示写出下列单词1．________ n．无家可归2．________ n. 不平等3．________ adj. 自愿的4．________ adj. 大量的5．________ vt.&vi. 存储，储蓄6．________ n. 货币7．________ n. 签名8．________ vt. 统治，管理9．________ v. 积累10．________ n. 所有权11．________ n. 重担，负担12．________ adj. 未住人的，空置的13．________ n. 调整，调节14．________ adj. 各种各样的15．________ vt.&vi. 辞职16．________ vi. 窒息，噎住17．________ vi.
