Today, we're diving into Unit 1, which is all about Cultural Heritage. Before we start, let's have a quick look at these pictures on the screen. [Shows pictures of different cultural heritages like the Great Wall, the Pyramids, and the Mona Lisa] Can anyone tell me what cultural heritage means? Raise your hands. Student A: Cultural heritage is like old things from the past that are important to a group or a country. Teacher: Great answer, Student A. Cultural heritage can be divided into two main types: tangible and intangible. Tangible cultural heritage includes things like buildings, monuments, artworks, and artifacts. Intangible cultural heritage consists of traditions, customs, languages, and performing arts. Now, let's think about why it's so crucial to protect cultural heritage. What are your thoughts? Student B: We should protect it because it shows where we came from and helps us understand our history. Teacher: Exactly! Cultural heritage is our link to the past, and it enriches our present and future. Today, in our Listening and Talking section, we'll explore how people around the world are involved in protecting cultural heritage. So, let's get started! Listening 1: A Project on Mount Tai Teacher: First, listen carefully to this conversation. It's about an international youth project related to a famous Chinese cultural heritage site. Try to catch the main idea and important details. [Plays the audio] Reporter: Hello, I'm here to learn about your interesting project. Can you tell me what it's all about? Stephanie: We’re creating an app about Mount Tai. We’re part of an international youth project. There are 23 senior high school students from seven countries. Reporter: Why is the project here at Mount Tai? Liu Bin: Well, as you know, Mount Tai is one of the most famous mountains in China. The mountain and the temples have been protected for over 3,000 years, so it's a great example of how people preserve their cultural heritage. We feel so proud to have a chance to do something. Reporter: Tell me about the app you're making. Liu Bin: We want to promote Mount Tai; that is, we want to tell teenagers in other countries about the mountain and Chinese culture. The app teaches teenagers about Mount Tai and even has a few games about cultural relics. Stephanie: Yes. For example, this game is about the six cypresses that were planted on Mount Tai during the Han Dynasty. You learn about the trees and also the life in China over 2,000 years ago. Reporter: So what else will you put in the app? Liu Bin: Well, there are 22 temples and some 1,800 stones with writing on them. We’ll take photos of them all, and then visit the Dai Temple on Mount Tai, since it has so many important paintings and relics. Another group is reading about Mount Tai and writing texts for the app. We’ll also visit local schools and talk to Chinese students. Reporter: Do you think that some people will use the app instead of visiting Mount Tai? The app is great, but the best way to see Mount Tai is to climb all 6,000 steps! Stephanie: We hope the app will make people more interested in visiting Mount Tai in person. It's like a preview, showing them the amazing things they can experience when they come here. Teacher: Now, let's answer some questions. First, who are working on this project? Student C: 23 senior high school students from seven countries. Teacher: Correct. And why did they choose Mount Tai for this project? Student D: Because Mount Tai is a famous mountain in China and has been protected for over 3,000 years, showing good cultural heritage preservation. Teacher: Excellent. What's the main purpose of the app they are creating? Student E: To promote Mount Tai and teach teenagers in other countries about the mountain and Chinese culture. Teacher: Well done, everyone. Now, let's listen to the conversation again and take some notes on the specific cultural elements they mentioned about Mount Tai, like the temples, stones, and cypresses. [Plays the audio again] Teacher: Alright, let's share our notes. Who wants to start? Student F: They mentioned 22 temples on Mount Tai, and some 1,800 stones with writing on them. Also, there are six cypresses planted during the Han Dynasty. Teacher: Great. These are all important parts of Mount Tai's cultural heritage. Now, let's think about why they included games in the app. What do you think? Student G: Maybe it's to make learning about Mount Tai more fun and engaging for teenagers. Teacher: Exactly. The games can attract young people and help them learn about the cultural relics in an enjoyable way. Now, let's move on to our next listening. Listening 2: Protecting Pine Trees on Mount Huang Teacher: Listen to this conversation about a group of volunteers working to protect the pine trees on Mount Huang. Try to understand what they are doing and why it's important. [Plays the audio] Reporter: It is said that you are one of the volunteers to preserve the pine trees on Mount Huang. What are you guys doing? Volunteer 1: We are making some signs which are designed to educate people to protect the pine trees. Volunteer 2: Besides, we took a lot of pictures of pine trees and create an app which aims to promote people’s awareness of protecting the precious trees. Volunteer 3: We often wear volunteer clothes and send some brochures in the park to call on more people to protect the trees. Reporter: Do you think your efforts are paying off? Volunteer 4: Definitely. More and more tourists are now stopping carving names on the trees or seldom take photos, climbing the trees. Teacher: Now, let's answer some questions. What are the volunteers doing to protect the pine trees on Mount Huang? Student H: They are making signs, taking pictures to create an app, and distributing brochures. Teacher: Right. Why are they doing all these things? Student I: To educate people and raise their awareness of protecting the pine trees. Teacher: Correct. Do they think their efforts are successful? Student J: Yes, because more tourists are now stopping harmful behaviors like carving names on the trees. Teacher: Good. Now, let's discuss in pairs. If you were a volunteer, what other things could you do to protect the cultural heritage of a place like Mount Huang? [Students discuss in pairs for a few minutes] Teacher: Alright, let's hear some of your ideas. Student K: We could organize guided tours to explain the importance of the pine trees to tourists. Student L: Maybe set up a hotline for people to report any damage to the trees. Teacher: These are great ideas. Protecting cultural heritage requires the efforts of everyone. Now, let's move on to our speaking activity. Speaking Activity 1: Role - playing at a Cultural Heritage Site Teacher: In this speaking activity, we'll do some role - playing. I'll divide you into groups of three. One person will be a tour guide, and the other two will be tourists visiting a famous cultural heritage site. You can choose a site like the Forbidden City, the Eiffel Tower, or any other well - known place. Here are some useful expressions to help you start your conversation. [Shows expressions on the screen like "Excuse me, but what is... exactly?", "Forgive me for asking, but can you tell me more about...?"] Now, start your role - playing. [Students start role - playing, and the teacher walks around to listen and offer help] [After a few minutes] Teacher: Okay, let's stop here. Which group wants to come to the front and show us their role - play? Group 1 (comes to the front): Tourist A: Excuse me, but what is the Forbidden City exactly? Tour Guide: Well, the Forbidden City is a large palace complex. It was the imperial palace of the Ming and Qing dynasties. It has over 9,000 rooms and is a great example of ancient Chinese architecture. Tourist B: Forgive me for asking, but can you tell me more about the history of the Forbidden City? Tour Guide: Sure. It was built in the 14th century. Emperors lived and worked here, and it was the center of the Chinese government for nearly 500 years. Tourist A: I see that you're looking at that old painting. Do you know anything about it? Tour Guide: This is a traditional Chinese painting. It shows the daily life of people in ancient times. The colors and details are very delicate. Teacher: Great job, Group 1. You used the expressions well and had an interesting conversation. Now, let's hear from another group. Speaking Activity 2: Discussing Cultural Heritage Protection Teacher: Now, let's have a group discussion. I'll divide you into groups of four. The topic is "How can we encourage more young people to get involved in cultural heritage protection?" Each group should come up with at least three ideas. You have 10 minutes to discuss. [Groups start discussing, and the teacher moves around to listen] [After 10 minutes] Teacher: Alright, let's hear your ideas. Which group wants to start? Group 2: We think schools can organize field trips to cultural heritage sites. This way, students can experience them firsthand and become more interested. Also, social media can be used to share interesting stories about cultural heritage. Young people are always on social media, so it can attract their attention. And we can hold cultural heritage - related competitions, like a photography competition of cultural heritage sites. Teacher: Those are excellent ideas, Group 2. Other groups, do you have any different ideas? Group 3: We can create volunteer programs specifically for young people. They can get involved in activities like cleaning up historical sites or helping with guided tours. Also, schools can offer more courses about cultural heritage, not just in history class but also in art and literature classes. And we can collaborate with local communities to organize cultural festivals that showcase local cultural heritage. Teacher: Very good, Group 3. All these ideas can really help in getting young people more involved in protecting cultural heritage. Now, let's summarize what we've learned today. Summary Teacher: Today, we listened to conversations about projects related to cultural heritage protection, like the Mount Tai app project and the pine tree protection on Mount Huang. We also did some speaking activities, including role - playing at cultural heritage sites and discussing ways to encourage young people to protect cultural heritage. Remember, cultural heritage is our precious legacy, and it's our responsibility to protect it. For homework, I want you to write a short paragraph about a cultural heritage site you would like to visit and why it's important to protect it. You can use the knowledge and vocabulary we learned today. That's all for today's class. See you next time! 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 $$
