T: Just now we have discussed some pictures concerning physical contact and learned some words and expressions. Now open your books and turn to Page 21. Read these four words after me.

(The teacher reads the words, followed by the students and performs each word’s meaning with gestures. )

T: (Five minutes later) Are you ready?

Ss: Yeah. Write your words on the blackboard.

(Four students go to the blackboard and write. )

T: Now let’s count the words of each group together and choose the group who gives more words as a temporary winner. (During this course, if new words appear, the teacher should explain them and lead the reading or ask a student who knows them to give an explanation. )

Group a—12

(The teacher plays the tape for the students. )

T: The listening is completed for the first time. Have you got the main idea?
