I. Teaching Objectives II. Before Reading III. Global Reading IV. Detailed Reading V. After Reading
Ⅰ. Teaching Objectives Students will be able to:
understand the main idea (Father meddled in children’s affairs with good intentions, but only to find his efforts unwelcome) and structure (three settings, three scenes) of the text; appreciate the basic elements of a play; grasp the key language points and grammatical structures in the text; conduct a series of reading, listening, speaking and writing activities related to the theme of the unit.
2. Comedy
Listen to the passage and fill in the blanks with the missing words. Comedy is a universal form of expression and a major dramatic genre that is intended to amuse. Comedy is associated with humorous behavior, wordplay, pleasurable feeling, release of tension, and laughter. Imbued with a playful spirit, comic entertainment frequently exposes incongruous (不协 调的), or ridiculous aspects of human nature. It generally follows a fixed pattern of theatrical surprises that leads to a sense of delight in the viewer. Of all dramatic genres, comedy is the most widely performed.

In addition, he disliked loud rock and roll music, and saw little reason in the student protests of the 60's.

Unit3 generation gap

Unit3 generation gap

Firstly, Children want to be free to choose their own friends, select their own classes in school, plan their own future, earn and spend their own money, and generally run their own life in a more independent way than many parents allow. Secondly, the parents and children seldom sit down together to talk or communicate with each other equally. If they do so, the gap will be narrowed, If not, it will widen. In most cases, the parents often blame the children's behavior or style of clothes instead of caring about their thoughts. Thirdly, the children want to be more independent, but the parents still want to take children under their wings.
Have you experienced generation gap?
How can we deal with it?
• AS PARENTS
• To solve these problems, the busy parents should spare their children some time and communicate with them so as to improve their relationship. At the same time, they can also observe their children’s behavior in order to understand their children’s personality. • Besides that, the parents should try to give up their absolute power in family and give a fair environment to their children since it can make their children feel free to chat with their parents. Then it is easy for the parents to approach their lovely children. If so, a close and harmonious(和谐的) relationship between parents and children appears.

Text A Father Knows Better

I. Listening Practice
Generation gaps have always existed. The generation who grew up with the first automobiles shocked their parents by having wild parties accompanied by jazz music in the 1920's. But one of the greatest generation gaps in history was the one between Boomers, those born in the years following WWII, and their parents and grandparents.
He was a great father, but you can see how his thinking and the thinking of his offspring would be so different.
2021

The parents who worked so hard to provide great lives for the post WWII-born children would one day find themselves disagreeing with their children over the cultural, musical, and political preferences. For instance, refusal to go to war in 1942 would have been regarded as cowardly. However, many Boomers were bold enough to question the very morality of the war in Vietnam, and to thereby burn draft cards and loudly protest and refuse to go, fleeing to Canada or going to jail, if necessary.

Our parents just couldn't relate or understand.
But not all of us protested the war or used drugs, though it's hard to imagine a Boomer not being into Rock and Roll. But even if we lived more straight-laced lives than the hippies on the nightly news, there's no doubt that our thinking was a whole lot different from that of our parents. And that constituted a massive generation gap that has not been repeated since.
