Read the following questions and discuss them with your partner.1.Do you like traveling?2.What places have you been to? Which one impresses you most?3.Travelers are always discoverers. Do you think this statement is true? Why or why not?4.Do you know anything about Thailand? What is its capital?5.What is the climate like there?6.What is the major religion practiced in Thailand?Demo1. Do you like traveling?Yes, I love traveling. There are many advantages about traveling and I think traveling can change our life and enable us to get a better view of other cultures, religions and so on. Perhaps one reason I'm learning English is to have the chance to get in contact with people all over the world. After graduation, I want to take a lot of journeys: traveling in Mexico, in Turkey, in Egypt, in Italy, in England, in France and in the Netherlands. I will also take a lot of pictures about the places that I've visited.3. Travelers are always discoverers. Do you think this statement is true? Why or why not?I think it's very true. There's no question about it. Even without leaving where we live, we tend to find something new from time to time so long as we can see and hear. How can a traveler not discover something new if he or she is visiting a new place? As to what kinds of discovery a traveler makes, that would be a different story. People with different cultural backgrounds, education, experience and interest would surely make different kinds of discovery. We would understand this much better when we are traveling ourselves.Language FocusHere are some useful sentences and structures that you might find handy in discussing the above questions:●Traveling helps us to broaden our minds / increase our knowledge / identify ourselves withnature.●The world is a classroom. When we travel, we can learn so much.● A visit to an aquarium introduces us to a great variety of fish and other water animals.● A walk through a forest opens our eyes to interesting trees, plants and birds.● A trip to a foreign land can give us an insight into local cultures and customs.●Traveling enables us to see new places / meet new people / learn about new cultures.●I travel for travel’s sake. The important thing is to go, not to go anywhere in particular.●Thanks to modern means of transportation, it is possible to travel across the country/toremote areas/abroad.●Among the places I have been to, … impresses me most/ is most unforgettable/ has left thedeepest impression on my mind.●I like visiting small villages/ hiking in the mountains/ going to seaside resorts.●Taking some time from work/ study makes us feel refreshed and energetic enough to goback to work/ study again.●Thailand is a country located in Southeast Asia and Bangkok is its capital●As Thailand has a long coastline, it is not surprising that tourism / fishery plays animportant role in its economy.●The great majority of people in Thailand believe in Buddhism. And Buddhist temples canbe seen everywhere in the country.Listening TasksA ConversationA Visit to BangkokWord Bankarchitecturen. the style or manner of building 建筑式样，建筑风格incredible a. wonderful 奇妙的，极好的spicya. hot 辛辣味的tropical a. of the tropics 热带的sticky a. humid and hot 湿热的resort n. tourist spot, vacation place 游览胜地，度假地talk sb. into sth. to persuade sb. to do sth.说服某人做某事Buddhist temple 佛寺Bangkok 曼谷 [泰国首都]Pattaya 芭堤雅[位于泰国湾东岸一处著名风景区]Phuket 普吉岛 [泰国西南部一岛名]Thailand 泰国ScriptA Visit to BangkokA: Hi, Ellen.

Thailand A country in Southeast Asia with an area of 514,000 sq. km. and a population of about 60 million. The country used to be an absolute monarchy but a coup in 1932 changed it to a constitutional monarchy. Its capital is Bangkok and its major languages are Thai, Chinese and English. Thailand is also a Buddhist country, with 94% of its population believing in Buddhism. Thailand is famous for its fine beaches, beautiful architecture, tasty food and rich culture, which attract millions of tourists from around the world every year.
