Having a double would also be good because I can do two things at a time，so that I can work more efficiently. 2: But we think having a double might be dangerous because we don’t know what the double might do. For example, the double might cheat people out of their money. As a result I will have to be punished because of him.3: No, I don’t think so. I would like to have a double, because I don’t have time to do all the things I’d like to do, for example, cooking meals and having meetings. Having a double would be wonderful because we could have more time to do things I like best.4: However, having doubles would make people confused, because no one would know who the double really was or how to treat it. For example, the double wouldn’t have any parents and relatives. It would be bad for society if people had troubles, because it would be very difficult to make it clear who was to blame for the very trouble.Useful expressions:It would be wonderful if …Just imagine if …It’s possible / impossible to pred ic t …It would be bad for … if …We can only guess.No one can predict what / when …Post-speaking: Have a free discussion (as homework)What would happen if there were two Hitlers ?Language points1. double①n. a person who looks exactly the same as someone else:e.g. Hey Tony, I met someone at a party last week who was your double.②adj. twice the size, amount, price, etc., or consisting of two similar things together:e.g. Go through the double doors and turn left.The word “cool” has a double “o” in the middle.2. copy①n. something that has been made to be exactly like something else:e.g. This painting is only a copy of the original hanging in the Louvre.Could you make a copy of this for tomorrow’s meeting, please?②v. to produce something so that it is the same as an original piece of work:e.g. Patricia’s going to copy her novel onto disk and send it to me.He tends to copy his brother in the way he dresses.StepⅥ.Planning my futureFree discussionThis step is to stimulate the students’curiosity about the future and ambition to struggle for their own lifelong destination.T: Can you predict your own future?
