Period 4
Section B (2a-2c)
Unit 6 I’m watching TV.
How do you spend the Dragon Boat Festival?
2a Look at the clocks and ask your partner about the time in different places.
A: What time is it in Beijing?
B: It's eight o'clock in the morning.
2b Read the TV report and answer the questions.
1. Why are Zhu Hui's family watching boat races and making zongzi ?
2. Does Zhu Hui like his host family?What does he think about his home in China?
Because today is the Dragon Boat Festival.
Yes, he does. He misses his family and wishes
to have his mom's delicious zongzi.
Today's story is about Zhu Hui, a student from Shenzhen. He's now studying in the United States. ① He's living with an American family in New York. Today is the Dragon Boat Festival. It's 9: 00 a. m and Zhu Hui's family are at home. His mom and aunt are making zongzi. His dad and uncle are watching the boat races on TV. ②
Is Zhu Hui also watching the races and eating zongzi? Well, it's 9: 00 p. m. in New York, and it's the night before the festival.
端午节是为了纪念我国古代伟大诗人屈原。端午节有赛龙舟、吃粽子的习俗。
But there isn't a Dragon Boat Festival in the US, so it's like any other night for Zhu Hui and his host family. ③ The mother is reading a story to her young children. ④ The father is watching a soccer game on TV. And what's Zhu Hui doing? He's talking on the phone to his cousin in Shenzhen. Zhu Hui misses his family and wishes to have his mom's delicious zongzi. ⑤ Zhu Hui likes New York and his host family a lot, but there's still “no place like home”. ⑥
