Teaching Procedures
Step 1 Greetings and Revision
(Greet the whole class as usual. Review the adjectives ending in -ing and –ed. )
T: What did we learn yesterday?
Ss: The adjectives ending in -ing and –ed.
T: Yes, that’s right. Let’s review them by making up a story: everyone has a chance to show us your sentence if you like. Remember: your sentences should contain at least an adjective and follow the last sentence. I will give you the beginning. Are you clear?
S: Yes.
T: In modern society, there is a moving story.
S: A boy from a poor family in the mountains gets very exciting news.
S: That is, he can go out the mountains to see more about the attracting world and realize his dreams.
S: But then he is disappointed.
S: How can he walk out these mountains? He is puzzled.

(The teacher tries to give as many chances as possible.)
Step 2 Speaking
T: Just now, you showed me a beautiful story. I was moved by the story, at the same time I was excited about your courage and good imagination. In order to give another chance to speak, I will lead you to a relaxing topic. Please turn to Page 7.Look at the photos from a US high school brochure and try to discuss and answer the questions.
1. Is the school similar to your school? Explain why it is or isn’t.
2. Do students at your school do things like this?
Suggested answers:
1. No, it isn’t. Because Chinese students’ work is harder than students in American school, so they have a very little time to take part in all kinds of after-school activities, such as surfing Internet to look up information, playing football, basketball, baseball and table tennis, sitting on the grassland chatting.
2. Yes, they do. But only sometimes they do.
3. Differences:
(1)The school year（学年）and the school-time（上课时间）are longer in ChinA.
(2)Almost everyone with a high school diploma has a chance to go to university in USA.
(3)The students have more chances to take part in social activities in American schools.
(4)In the American school system, the students are hoped to be more creative.
Similarities:
(1)Before going to university, the students have to finish 12 year studying.
(2)The students need to choose at least one foreign language.
(3)The school year is divided into two semesters.
Step 3 Reading

1. Martha, an 16-year-old girl from New York.
2. She wants teenagers to tell her about their memories of their first year at primary school.
3. The smell of wall paint; Molly, her friend; Miss Sharp’s smile.
