Section A 第一部分围绕soap opera 这一话题展开讨论（1a）、听力（1b）、会话（1c）训练，让学生通过肥皂剧认识本单元的目标语言，即Reported what someone said的句型；第二部分继续围绕soap opera的话题展开听力（2a-2b）、会话（2c）训练，帮助学生进一步掌握direct speech 和reported speech的用法；第三部分继续围绕本单元的功能句型reported speech开展各种课堂活动，活动形式为补全短文所缺单词（3a）并且续写新闻报道（3b）；4是一个小组活动，要求学生以角色扮演的形式完成一组对话训练并且在每组中分别扮演不同的角色，主要训练学生运用语言交际的能力。

Section B 1a呈现了一些描述学生学习状况和表现的功能句子，要求学生判断哪些描述符合自己的情况；1b要求学生结对谈论他们在1a中的回答，是对功能句子的口头练习；2a、2b和2c是有关report card的听力和口语练习，也是对本单元目标语言的拓展训练；3a是一篇Alan写给奶奶的一封关于他的学习成绩的信，要求学生根据材料内容判断29页2b中的哪个成绩卡是Alan的，并要求学生仿照该信用目标语言进行应用写作训练（3b-3c）；4要求学生运用所掌握的reported speech 完成report card并根据回答结对进行会话练习。

Self check 1要求学生用给出的单词填空并能用这些单词造句，强化学生对重点词汇的理解与掌握；2要求学生阅读一篇文章并且把它改写成对话的形式，也就是把间接引语转换成直接引语，是对学生语言应用能力的检验。

Reading 以一篇有关青年志愿者的阅读文章为中心，设计了5个Section：Section 1是阅读的热身，要求学生讨论哪些人需要帮助及如何帮助他们，从而引入阅读的主题——一个志愿者的故事；Section 2呈现了阅读文章以及阅读策略，阅读策略帮助学生学习如何根据上下文了解生词的意思，从而克服阅读障碍；Section 3是对阅读效果的检验及语言知识的学习，形式为填表、回答问题和概括大意；Section 4列出了一些世界各地的志愿组织，要求学生讨论他们希望加入哪个组织并给出理由。

该活动将帮助学生了解一些志愿组织的工作，激发他们乐于助人、关爱他人、关心社会的良好道德风尚。

I know many of you like doing sports after school. Right? What other things do you like to do in your free time? Now I will ask some of you.Then ask some of the students and write their sentences on the blackboard.T: These students talk about what they are going to do after school, if you want to tell a friend what they said, how would you tell him?Write the words “He said” and “She said” on the blackboard.T: We can use the words “He said” and “She said” to tell your friend like this: He/She said he/she was going to play basketball after school.Get the students to repeat.Ask four students to stand in front of the class, and the teacher asks them the following questions as a reporter.1. What are you going to do when you grow up?2. What are you going to do next week?3. What are you going to do after school?The students will give different answers, then ask a top student to report what they said. “I am going to be a doctor.”—What did she say?—She said she was going to be a doctor.“I am going to have a party on Friday night.”—What did he say?—He said he was going to have a party on Friday night.“I am going to do my homework.”—What did she say?—She said she was going to do her homework.“I am going home after school.”—What did she say?—She said she was going home after school.Step II Function presentation (1a, P26)T: Do you know what a soap opera is?Explain what soap opera is, what things happen on soap operas. Then let them name some soap operas they know.Soap opera: a television or radio story about the daily lives and relationships of the same group of people, which is broadcast regularlyList of some soap operas: 《东北一家人》《我爱我家》《编辑部的故事》《成长的烦恼》《闲人马大姐》…Then ask about their opinions on soap operas.T: Do you like watching soap operas? Why or why not?S: Yes. They are full of fun. They make you laugh and relaxed.S: No. They are too long and boring....Ask the students to look at the pictures, point at the TV screens in the picture.T: Look at the picture. Two girls are watching a soap opera. They are talking about it. Ask one girl: “Please read what Marcia said.”S: She said she was having a surprise party for Lana on Friday night.Repeat the other pictures in the same way.T: So when we report what someone said, we should use reported speech. Today, we will learn about it.Step III Listening and speaking (1b, 1c, P26)In this step, students will do some listening and oral practice about the reported speech in activity 1a.First, play the tape and let students listen and number the statements in the picture. Then play the tape again and let them repeat the sentences with reported speech.Repeat: She said she was having a surprise party for Lana on Friday night.She said Lana thought she was coming to her house to study.She said she was mad at Marcia.She said she wasn’t going to Marcia’s house on Friday night.T: Who said the first two sentences?S: Marcia.T: And who said the last two sentences?S: Lana.T: Good. Now let’s do a pairwork. Use the question on the blackboard and the sentences you repeated to make conversations.Write “What did Marcia/Lana say?” on the blackboard.First Ss work in pairs, then ask some pairs to present their dialogues to the class. Sample structure: What did Marcia/Lana say?She said ...T: Very good. Can y ou report what I said? First, He said to Tom, “We have made a mistake.”S: He said to Tom that they had made a mistake.T: Very good. Next, they said, “We are going to see Lily now.”S: They said they were going to see Lily then.T: He said to me, “which do you like better, this or that?”S: He asked me which one I liked better.Step IV Listening (2a, 2b, P27)This step provides listening practice with the target language. Students will learn more about the use of tense in direct speech and indirect speech.First, point to the five sentences in 2a and ask different students to read them to the class.T: You will hear a conversation between two people who are talking about a soap opera on TV. Circle true or false after each statement according to what you hear.Play the recording. For the first time, Ss just listen for main idea.Play it again, Ss circle their answers.Then check the answers.Then play the tape again, and let students circle the correct answers in 2b. They should pay attention to the use of tense. Then let them compare the use of tense in direct speech and reported speech.T: Now, work in pairs, one reads the sentences in the pictures and the other reads the sentences below the pictures. (after reading) The sentences in the pictures are called “direct speech”, and those below the pictures are called “reported speech”. What tenses are used in each speech? Have you noticed the difference?Ss: The direct speech uses present tense, and the reported speech uses past tense.T: Good point. This is very important. You should remember it. Let’s do some oral practice.Step V Pairwork (2c, P27)In this step, students will do some oral practice with the target language.T: Look at the sample conversation in 2c. I’d like two of you to read it. V olunteers? Ask two students to read the conversation. Then let students make conversations according to what they hear in the listening material.T: Now I will play the tape recording again. Listen and make some notes. You will use the notes to make conversations. Are you ready?Play the recording again. Give students several minutes to prepare.Check the students’ work by asking several pairs to present their conversations to the class.A sample conversation:A: What happened on “Young Lives” last night?B: Ben told Lana that Marcia was going to have a surprise party for her.A: Then what did Lana say?B: She said she would go to Marcia’s house on Friday night.A: Then what?B: Marcia called everyone and told her that she could bring some drinks and snacks toher house on Friday night.B: What did Marcia say?A: She told Lana she would be glad.Step VI Grammar focusReview the grammar box. Give students a summary of the grammar point.T: You can answer the question What did he/she say? In two ways:1) by repeating the words spoken (direct speech)2) by reporting the words spoken (indirect or reported speech).Show the following explanations on the screen.Direct speech repeats, or quotes, the exact words spoken. When we use direct speech in writing, we place the words spoken between inverted commas (“....”) and there is no change in these words.Examples:She says “What time will you be home?”She said “What time will you be home?”and I said “I don’t know!”John said, “There’s an elephant outside the window.”Reported speech is usually used to talk about the past, so we normally change the tense of the words spoken. We use reporting verbs like say, tell, ask, and we may use the word that to introduce the reported words. Inverted commas are not used.Examples:She said, “I saw him.” → She said that she had seen him.That may be omitted:She told him that she was happy.She told him she was happy.Say and tell:Use “say”when there is no indirect object:He said that he was tired.Always use tell when you say who was being spoken to (i.e. with an indirect object): He told me that he was tired.T: Now look at the grammar box. Study the change of tense between direct speech and indirect speech. Then finish the chart on the Bb.Let students finish the following chart.Then let students do some practice with the change of tense.Substitution drill:Instruction: This semester, a new student comes to your class. He introduces himself to the class. You and your partner are talking about what he said.1. “I am 14 years old.”A: What did he say?B: He said he was 14 years old.2. “I come from Australia.”A: What did he say?B: He said he came from Australia.3. “I will work hard at school.”A: What did he say?B: He said he would work hard at school.4. “I can play Guitar.”A: What did he say?B: He said he could play Guitar.5. “I can speak good Chinese”A: What did he say?B: He said he could speak good Chinese.6. “Everyone is so friendly here.”A: What did he say?B: He said that everyone was so friendly here.7. “I live with my parents in an apartment.”A: What did he say?B: He said that he lived with his parents in an apartment.8. “I think we will be good friends.”A: What did he say?B: He said that we would be good friends.Step VII Homework1. 用She/He said 将直接引语改为间接引语。
