Today, we are going to continue our exploration of Unit 5 The Value of Money. In this period, we will focus on listening and talking, which will help us better understand different attitudes towards money and improve our language skills at the same time. So, are you ready to dive in? Students: Yes! Teacher: Great! First, let's have a quick look at the opening page of this unit. There is a picture and a famous quote. The picture seems to be from a movie. Can you guess which movie it might be related to? And what about the quote "Money is a good servant and a bad master." by Francis Bacon? What do you think it means? Any ideas? Student 1: I think the picture might be from the movie The Million Pound Note. And for the quote, it means that money can be very useful when we use it properly, like a servant helping us meet our needs. But if we let money control our lives, it will make us unhappy, just like a bad master. Teacher: Excellent! You've got the main idea. The movie The Million Pound Note indeed has a lot to do with our understanding of the value of money. Now, before we start our listening part, let's have a little discussion in pairs. Think about these questions: What do people have to buy in order to lead a good life? What can people not buy with money? And is money the basis of a happy life? (Students discuss in pairs for a few minutes) Teacher: Okay, time's up. Let's share some of your thoughts. Who wants to start? Student 2: Well, to lead a good life, people need to buy food, clothes, and a place to live. Also, medical care is important. But money can't buy love. No matter how much money you have, you can't force someone to truly love you. Teacher: Very true. Love is something that money can't purchase. What about the third question? Is money the basis of a happy life? Student 3: I don't think money is the basis of a happy life. There are many poor people who are very happy because they have a loving family and good friends. But at the same time, having some money is necessary to meet basic needs. So, it's not the only thing, but it's also important. Teacher: That's a balanced view. Now, let's move on to our listening task. We are going to listen to a news report. Before we listen, take a look at Activity 1. There are some people's names and descriptions. Try to predict who they might be in the news. (Students look at Activity 1) Teacher: Alright, let's listen carefully. Pay attention to the details like who, what, when, where, why, and how. These are the key elements of a news report. (Play the news report audio) Teacher: Now, stop here. Let's match the people with the correct information in Activity 1. Who can share their answers? Student 4: Chen Liyan is a cleaner at Taiyuan railway station, so she matches with B. Wang Zheng is the owner of the lost money, so he matches with A. Ma Dongbao is a police officer living in Chen's apartment building, so he matches with C. And Liu Xia is Chen's 16 - year - old daughter, so she matches with D. Teacher: Perfect! You got them all right. Now, let's listen to the news report again. This time, in Activity 3, we need to put these events in the correct order. Listen carefully and take some notes if you need to. (Play the news report audio again) Teacher: Okay, let's check the order. Who wants to share? Student 5: First, Chen Liyan found Wang Zheng's money and returned it to him. Then, Chen gave an interview to the local newspaper. Next, Wang offered Chen 5,000 yuan. After that, Ma Dongbao shared Chen's story with Wang. Then, Wang built a website to help raise funds for Liu Xia. And finally, Chen spent all her savings and took out a large loan. So the order is 2, 6, 5, 4, 1, 3. Teacher: Well, the correct order is actually 1. Chen Liyan found Wang Zheng's money and returned it to him. 2. Chen gave an interview to the local newspaper. 3. Wang offered Chen 5,000 yuan. 4. Ma Dongbao shared Chen's story with Wang. 5. Wang built a website to help raise funds for Liu Xia. 6. Chen spent all her savings and took out a large loan. So, there was a little mix - up in your answer. But it's okay, it shows you were listening actively. Now, let's move on to Activity 4. Listen to the news one more time and decide if the following statements are true or false. (Play the news report audio for the third time) Teacher: Let's check the answers. For statement 1, "It was the first time Chen Liyan's story was reported." Is it true or false? Student 6: False. It doesn't say it's the first time in the news. Teacher: Correct. For statement 2, "Chen found 10,000 yuan in a small plastic bag in Taiyuan railway station." True or false? Student 7: False. She found 100,000 yuan. Teacher: Right. Statement 3, "Wang Zheng apologised to Chen because he couldn't offer her more money." Student 8: False. He apologised for the inconvenience. Teacher: Good. Statement 4, "Chen took out a large loan to cure her daughter." Student 9: True. Teacher: Correct. And statement 5, "Wang set up a fundraising website for Chen's daughter after Chen told him about her situation." Student 10: False. Ma Dongbao told Wang about Chen's situation. Teacher: Well done, everyone. Now, let's look at the text of the listening. Let's read it together and try to work out the structure of the news report. (Teacher and students read the text together) Teacher: As we can see, a news report usually follows the 5W1H principle. Who can tell me what the 5W1H stands for? Student 11: Who, What, When, Where, Why, and How. Teacher: Exactly. In this news report, who is Chen Liyan. What happened? She found 100,000 yuan and returned it. When did it happen? Early last Tuesday morning. Where? At Taiyuan railway station. Why did she return the money? Because she thought it was the right thing to do. And how did the story develop later? Through a series of events like the owner's gratitude, the offer of a reward, and the setting up of a fundraising website. Now, based on this understanding, let's retell the story. Can someone give it a try? Student 12: Last Tuesday morning, Chen Liyan, a 45 - year - old cleaner at Taiyuan railway station, found a small plastic bag with 100,000 yuan in it. She was shocked but determined to return it. She waited for over two hours for the owner. Then she went to the nearest police station and the money was returned to Wang Zheng. Wang thanked her repeatedly, apologised for the inconvenience, and offered her 5,000 yuan as a reward, but she refused. Later, Ma Dongbao, a police officer living in Chen's apartment building, told Wang that Chen's daughter, Liu Xia, was seriously ill and Chen had spent all her savings and taken out a large loan. So, Wang set up a fundraising website to pay for Liu's hospital bills. Teacher: Wonderful retelling! You covered all the important points. Now, let's move on to Activity 5. Discuss your answers to the questions with your partner and explain your reasoning. For example, question 4, should we judge people based on how much money they have? (Students discuss in pairs) Teacher: Okay, let's hear some of your discussions. Who wants to share their thoughts on question 4? Student 13: I don't think we should judge people based on how much money they have. Just like Chen Liyan, she was a cleaner and didn't have much money, but she was very honest and kind. We should judge people by their character, not their wealth. Teacher: That's a great point. What about question 5, why do you think Wang Zheng decided to set up a fundraising website for Liu Xia? Student 14: I think he was really touched by Chen Liyan's honesty. Even though she was in a difficult situation with her daughter's illness, she still returned the money. So, Wang wanted to help her in return. Teacher: Very reasonable. Now, let's take a break from the news report and move on to something related to The Million Pound Note. We know that Henry Adams got an envelope from the two brothers. He was very hungry, so he went into a restaurant. Look at these pictures in Activity 1 on page 55. Guess what happens in the film and describe the pictures. First, look at the first picture. What can you see? Student 15: In the first picture, Henry is going into the restaurant. The owner is looking at him, and he doesn't seem very happy because Henry is dressed poorly. Teacher: Good observation. What about the second picture? Student 16: In the second picture, Henry is sitting at a table and ordering food. The waiter looks a bit surprised because Henry is ordering a lot. Teacher: Right. And the third picture? Student 17: In the third picture, Henry has finished eating and is about to pay the bill. He looks a bit hesitant, and the owner looks angry. Teacher: Great. Now, let's watch a short film clip to see if your guesses are correct. (Play the film clip) Teacher: So, were your guesses correct? Let's discuss some questions about the film clip. Why does the owner of the restaurant want Henry to sit somewhere else? Student 18: Because Henry is dressed poorly. The owner doesn't want other customers to see him, thinking it might affect the restaurant's image. Teacher: Exactly. What does Henry order? And why is the waiter surprised? Student 19: Henry orders ham and eggs, a nice big juicy steak with all the trimmings, and a tall tankard of ale - twice. The waiter is surprised because Henry eats so much food. Teacher: Good. Why does the owner think Henry hesitates to pay the bill? Student 20: The owner thinks Henry doesn't have the money to pay, considering his poor appearance. Teacher: Right. And why does the owner think the banknote is probably real? Student 21: Because no one would be crazy enough to get into trouble by forging a bill of such a high amount. Teacher: Excellent. And what happens in the end? Student 22: All the people in the restaurant think Henry is an eccentric millionaire, and the owner lets him leave without having to pay the bill. Teacher: Well done, everyone. Now, let's work in groups. Retell the story in the film clip you have just watched. You can use the pictures in Activity 1 as a guide. (Students work in groups to retell the story) Teacher: Okay, let's hear one group's retelling. Group 1, would you like to share? Group 1 representative: After leaving the brothers' home, Henry went to a small restaurant. He was about to sit down at a table when the restaurant owner showed him to a different seat because of his poor dress. Henry then ordered a large meal. After he finished it, he ordered the same meal again because he was very hungry. The waiter was surprised and told the restaurant owner. This made the restaurant owner worried that Henry couldn't pay the bill. Later, when Henry finished eating, he hesitated to pay the bill. This made the restaurant owner quite angry. Then Henry opened the envelope, expecting to find some money to pay the bill. Henry, and all the people in the restaurant were shocked to see that it was a million - pound note. The restaurant owner decided that the note must be real, and that Henry was an eccentric millionaire. In the end, the restaurant owner let him leave without paying anything. Teacher: Very good retelling. You used the correct sequence of events and described the characters' reactions well. Now, let's think about the changing attitudes in the film clip. How did the owner's attitude towards Henry change? Student 23: At first, the owner looked down on Henry because of his appearance. But after seeing the million - pound note, his attitude changed completely. He became very polite and even let Henry leave without paying. Teacher: Right. And what about the waiter? Student 24: The waiter was first surprised by Henry's big order, and then shocked when he saw the million - pound note. Teacher: Excellent. Now, let's do a little role - play activity. I will divide you into pairs. One of you will be the owner of the restaurant, and the other will be Henry. Try to act out the scene in the restaurant, using the lines and actions from the film clip. You can also add some of your own creativity. (Students are divided into pairs and start role - playing) Teacher: Okay, time's up. Let's ask some pairs to come to the front and show us their role - plays. Pair 1, please come up. (Pair 1 comes to the front and performs the role - play) Teacher: Great job, Pair 1. You really showed the different attitudes well. Now, let's have a summary of what we have learned today. We listened to a news report about a cleaner's honest act and learned about the structure and elements of a news report. We also watched a film clip from The Million Pound Note and analyzed the characters' attitudes and the story development. Through these activities, we have thought more deeply about the value of money. So, class, what have you learned about the value of money today? Student 25: I learned that money is not the most important thing. Honesty and kindness are more valuable, like Chen Liyan's act. And also, we shouldn't judge people by their appearance or wealth, just like in the story of The Million Pound Note. Teacher: That's a wonderful conclusion. Money is indeed a part of our lives, but it should not be the only thing that defines us. Alright, class, that's all for today. For homework, I want you to write a short paragraph about your own view on the value of money, combining what we have learned today and your own experiences.
