Ask: “What do you think happens in each picture? Predict the story order.” While - listening Play 2a audio. Tell students: “Listen carefully and number the pictures [1–4] to tell the story in order.” Play the audio twice. Pause after each play to let students adjust numbers. Post - listening Check answers (sequence depends on audio; assume correct order: Yu Gong starts moving, man doubts, family continues, gods help). Walk around to confirm, e.g., “First, Yu Gong and family start digging (picture 1). Then, a man mocks him (picture 2)...” III. 2b Activity – Key Word Identification (12 mins) Instruction Show 2b sentences with blanks (children/family, poor/weak, etc.).
