VI. Discussion:

Now you’ve known much about Wei Hua’s school life in the UK. From the text we know that they have a variety of subjects to choose from. You may be quite puzzled whether it is necessary for senior students to learn some of them, such as so many languages and woodwork. Here let’s have a discussion:

1. Should students learn more language? Why or why not?

2. What subjects would you like to take if you could choose? Why?

Example:

A: What subjects do you like best and least?

B: I really enjoy ……, because I ……. But I am not good at …….

A: I like ……. Do you think we should learn more foreign language?

B: Perhaps we should ……

After several minutes, ask the act out their discussion in pairs.

VII. Summary and Homework:

Today we’ve learned a text about Wei Hua’s experience in the UK. First we learned some reading strategies: skimming and scanning. Master these and put them into use in future while reading. Through reading we know there are many differences both in the timetable and in the curriculum.

Read the passage after class and get familiar with these language points.

Have a further discussion with your partner about the topics in Part F.

Further exploration: Organize the Ss’ ideas to form a report on “ Interest is the best teacher in learning” and share it with others the next day.
