Teaching and learning difficult points:
1) Listening comprehension for detailed information and taking notes while listening;
2) Learning about American food and talking about American potluck dinner etiquette.
Teaching and learning procedure:
Step 1 Warming up (Opening Page)
Activity 1 Leading-in
1. Lead in the teaching topic by looking at the picture on the opening page and discussing the two questions.
1) Where do you think this photo was taken?
2) What can you see in the photo? How would you describe it?
Suggested answers:
1) The photo was probably taken in the US because a sign says “California”. Many of the signs and decorations look Chinese, so it’s probably a Chinatown.
2) I can see some restaurants and stores. The signs are in Chinese and English. There is a lamp post decorated with dragons, and also lots of red lanterns. It seems like the photo was taken at night on a busy street in Chinatown.
2. Introduce the back ground information about Chinatown in San Francisco, California and watch the short video about it.
1) Introduce the background information about the picture of Chinatown in California.
The photo is down Grant Avenue in San Francisco, the USA, which is the heart of Chinatown. Grant Avenue is one of the oldest and most important streets in Chinatown. The intersection of the Grant Avenue and Bush Street, several blocks south of here, is the location of the famous Dragon Gate, which is considered the main entrance to Chinatown. The photo clearly shows the multicultural aspects of Chinatown, in that while the buildings are all typical of those built in cities in the USA in the early 1900s, the businesses, lanterns, and lamp posts are typical of what one may find in south China.
Chinatown is a district within a larger city which hosts a significant Chinese population. Many major cities around the world have a Chinatown, including New York, London, and San Francisco. These areas tend to have largely Chinese-focused stores, signs, and services, which makes some of them popular tourist destinations for those hoping to experience another culture.
2) Watch the short video about Chinatown.
3. Introduce the theme of this unit—Diverse Cultures and talk about the quote.
1) diverse cultures 多元不同的文化
diverse adj. 各种各样的, 不同的very different from each other, varied or different
diversity n. 多样性 多元化;差异, 不同
e.g. Shanghai is a culturally diverse city. 上海是一个文化多元化的城市。
Does the project reflect the ethnic and cultural diversity of the country?
这个项目能反映这个国家民族和文化的多样性吗?
2) The quote: The beauty of the world lies in the diversity of its people. —Unknown
English meaning: While the world may be full of natural beauty, ultimately its beauty is in the different kinds of people that inhabit it and their cultures.
Chinese meaning: 世界之美在于其人民的多样性。
4. Introduce the learning objectives of this unit at the bottom of the opening page and make the students have a general idea of what they are going to learn in this unit. (Get the students to read the comprehensive learning objectives at the bottom of the page.)
5. Introduce the learning objectives of this period.
Step 2 Listening
Activity 2 Pre-listening
1. Talk about American food.
When talking about American food, what will you think of? or What do you think Americans usually eat for dinner? (To notes)
2. Look at the photos of American food and match them with their names and descriptions. And then guess which countries’ cuisine influenced the foods’ invention.
A. nachos—small pieces of thin crisp chips served with beans, cheese, spices, etc.
B. fortune cookie—a crisp hollow cookie containing a piece of paper with a short message on it
C. gumbo—a thick seafood soup, a spicy stew
D. hamburger—a sandwich containing cooked meat and some other vegetables in a bread roll
Activity 3 While-listening (Listening comprehension and text reconstruction)
1. Listen to a radio interview about American food once or twice and check whether your answers to Activity 1 are correct and decide whether the statements in Activity 2 are true ( T ) or false ( F ).
Answers:
1) D B C A
2) F F T T T
2. Listen to the interview again and complete the notes, and then check the answers.
1) Learn how to take notes while listening.
When taking notes, just write down the key words, such as names, dates, and numbers. They will help you remember things later on. To save time and space, omit all articles (a, an, the) and use abbreviations. For example, use “N.O.” for New Orleans, “bc” for because, “yrs” for years, “+” for and, and so on.
2) Go through the notes and learn a few new words.
New words:
chip n.炸薯条,炸薯片;芯片;碎片
cheese n. 奶酪,干酪
spicy adj. 辛辣的;加有香料的,香的;有刺激性的
spice n. 香料,调味品;香气,香味;趣味,情趣
stew n. 炖煮的菜肴;烦恼,焦虑 vt.& vi. 炖,煨;闷热;担忧
3) Listen to the interview, complete the notes and then check the answers.

3. Reconstruct the text by retelling or summarizing the main content of the conversation with the help of above notes.
Step 3 Speaking
Activity 4 Speaking
1. Have a discussion. Imagine you are invited to a potluck dinner at an American friend’s house. Work in pairs and discuss what special dish(es) you will take. The following questions may help you.
A potluck dinner is a meal to which each guest brings a dish of food prepared by the person, to be shared among the group.
1) What food / snack from which area / ethnic group will you bring?
2) How is the food prepared and what is it made of?
3) How is this food special?
2. Read the sample dialogue as inspiration.
Sample dialogue:
A: What should I bring to the potluck dinner this weekend?
B: Why don't you make a dish from your home province?
A: You mean a Hunan dish?
B: Yeah, why not? I bet they'd love it!
A: Well, I guess I could make Hunan Steamed Fish Head with Diced Hot Red Peppers. It's delicious and really colourful.
B: Really? You can make that dish? How do you make it?
A: Easy! Slice open a fish head and cover it with a chilli and bean sauce. Then just steam it for 10 minutes.
B: Sounds so easy! You could make about it at your friend's house. That way it'll be fresh.
A: Great idea! I'll ask my friend.
Think about what you would do if you were ever faced with the same situation as the girl. Work in pairs to make up a dialogue or prepare a presentation. Then share your thoughts with your group, and explain the reasons for your choice. Try to use the following useful expressions.
3. Free talk. Make a dialogue to share ideas. And show the dialogue or give a presentation to the class if time permits.
Step 4 Pronunciation
Activity 5 Pronunciation practice: Understanding and practicing the use of pauses in speaking
1. Introduce sense group and pause in speaking.
意群(sense group) 意群指句子可以按照意思和语法结构分为若干部分,每一部分就称为一个意群。同一意群中的词与词之间关系紧密,不能随意拆分,否则就会引起误解。英语语法规定,根据阅读或讲话句子长短情况,可按意群进行停顿(pause)。在同一意群的各个词之间不能停顿,而应一口气读完,以便整体意思不致中断,使人能完整地理解讲话人的意图和目的。当一个意群在语法上和下一个意群不是很紧密联系的时候,就可以有个稍稍的停顿了。这个稍稍的停顿通常用单竖线“|”标记,比较长的停顿则用双竖线“||”标记。
2. Listen to the passage about Native Americans. Mark the pauses you hear. And then check the answer.
3. Practice reading the passage with right pauses.
Step 5 Evaluation and summary
Activity 6 Self-evaluation

1. What have you learned? (Words, text organization)
