We had a great start in Section A, learning about different ways of communication. Now, in Section B, we will dig deeper and explore more interesting aspects. So, are you all ready to communicate in English? Students: Yes! Teacher: Fantastic! First, let's take a look at 1a. Here, we have some common ways we communicate with others. Look at the phrases on the left, like "talk face to face", "send emails", "send text messages", "make a video call", and "make a phone call". And on the right, we have some pictures. Your task is to match these phrases with the correct pictures. I'll give you a few minutes to do this on your own. If you have any questions, just raise your hand. (Students start working on 1a) Teacher: Time's up! Let's check the answers together. Who wants to come to the board and show us the matches? (Calls on a student) Student: (Comes to the board and matches the phrases with the pictures) Teacher: Great job! Let's give [student's name] a big hand. Now, let's think about why we use these different forms of communication. For example, why might we choose to send an email instead of making a phone call? Turn to your partner and discuss this for a couple of minutes. (Students start discussing in pairs) Teacher: Okay, let's hear some of your ideas. Who would like to share? (Calls on a student) Student: We might send an email if we need to send some important information, like a document, and it's more convenient to write it down and send it rather than explain it over the phone. Teacher: That's a very good point. What about others? (Calls on another student) Student: We might make a video call if we want to see the person's face, like when we are talking to our grandparents who live far away. Teacher: Exactly! The choice of communication method depends on many factors, such as the purpose, the relationship with the person we are communicating with, and the urgency of the message. Now, let's move on to 1b. In this part, we are going to listen to some conversations. But before we listen, let's take a look at the table. It asks us to fill in how the speakers communicate and their relationship. Listen carefully and try to catch the key information. I'll play the recording twice. (Plays the recording for the first time) Teacher: Did you get some of the answers? Now, listen again to make sure you have all the information. (Plays the recording for the second time) Teacher: Alright, let's fill in the table together. Who can tell me the answer for the first conversation? (Calls on a student) Student: In the first conversation, the speakers communicate by making a phone call, and their relationship is father and son. Teacher: Correct! Well done. What about the second conversation? (Calls on another student) Student: They communicate by making a video call, and they are granddaughter and grandfather. Teacher: Excellent! You are all listening very carefully. Now, for 1c, we are going to listen to the conversations again, but this time, we need to answer some questions. Look at the questions on the screen. For the first conversation, we need to know when the rehearsal will end if it's on time. For the second conversation, we need to find out what the grandfather will do if he visits China this year. Listen closely and write down your answers. (Plays the recording again) Teacher: Time to check the answers. For the first question, who can tell me when the rehearsal will end? (Calls on a student) Student: The rehearsal will end at 7:00 p.m. if it's on time. Teacher: Right! And for the second question, what will the grandfather do if he visits China? (Calls on another student) Student: He will go to the park with his granddaughter and taste the local food. Teacher: Perfect! Now, let's have some fun with 1d. Imagine you are phoning a friend from the UK and you want to invite the friend to visit China. Work with your partner and make up a conversation about what you both will do. You can use the phrases we've learned and be as creative as you can. I'll give you about five minutes to prepare, and then some pairs will come to the front and act out their conversations. (Students start working on their conversations) Teacher: Time's up! Which pair would like to come to the front and show us their conversation? (Calls on a pair of students) Pair of students: (Come to the front and act out their conversation) Teacher: Wonderful job! You both did a great job with the pronunciation and the ideas. Let's give them a round of applause. Who else wants to share their conversation? (Calls on another pair) Another pair of students: (Act out their conversation) Teacher: Excellent! You really showed how to communicate effectively in this situation. Now, let's summarize what we've learned today. We've reviewed different forms of communication, practiced listening for specific information, and created our own conversations. Remember, communication is key in our daily lives, and by improving our English communication skills, we can connect with people from all over the world. For homework, I want you to write a short paragraph about your favorite way of communicating with your friends and explain why you like it. Bring it to class tomorrow and we can share. That's all for today. Class is dismissed. 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 $$
