Learning Ability Use collaborative role-play and listening strategies (prediction, note-taking). Teaching Key Points Master communication phrases and their contexts. Extract and summarize dialogue details. Teaching Difficulties Accurately capturing time/place details in listening. Creating natural, detailed phone conversations. Teaching Procedures Step 1: Warm-up & Vocabulary Activation (5 mins) Discussion Starter: Ask: “How do you communicate with your family/friends? Give examples.” (Elicit: call, text, video chat). Vocabulary Introduction: Present 1a’s phrases with images, explaining meanings and pronunciation: talk face to face (in person), send text messages (SMS), make a video call (Zoom), send emails (work), use sign language (deaf community), make a phone call (traditional). Step 2: 1a — Matching Activity (8 mins) Independent Matching: Students match phrases to images (a-f) individually. Group Check & Feedback: Pairs compare answers, then teacher confirms: a: make a phone call b: talk face to face c: use sign language d: send text messages e: make a video call f: send emails Phrase Practice: Students 造句 with phrases (e.g., “We often send emails to our teachers.”). Step 3: Listening — 1b & 1c (15 mins) 1b: Pre-listening Prediction Show the table and ask: “What communication methods might they use? What’s their relationship?” (Predict: phone call, text; friend, family). 1b: While-listening (Complete the Table) Play the recording; students fill in: Conversation Communication Relationship 1 make a phone call friend 2 send a text message sister 1c: While-listening (Answer Questions) Replay the recording; students capture details: Conversation 1: Rehearsal ends at 6:30 p.m. Meet at the theater gate. Conversation 2: Girl is in Sydney. Man will show her around and try local food. Post-listening: Strategy Highlight Explain listening strategies: Circle question words (when, where, what) to focus.

Dialogue Creativity: Students may repeat simple phrases. Offer “upgrade” phrases (e.g., “I’d love to show you around” vs. “I’ll show you around”). 第2课时　Pronunciation&（2a-2d） Teaching Objectives 1. Language Competence Pronunciation: Accurately pronounce vowel sounds (e.g., /ʌ/ in uncle, /juː/ in cute) and apply linking/stress in sentences. Listening: Extract details about communication problems and solutions (3a-3b). Speaking: Discuss communication methods (2e) and role-play scenarios (2f) using phrases like “If you come, I’ll...”. 2. Cultural Awareness Recognize that face-to-face communication strengthens relationships, while text-based communication may cause misunderstandings. 3. Thinking Quality Analytical Thinking: Infer solutions from the professor’s advice (e.g., meet in person). Creative Thinking: Design original dialogues for different communication scenarios. 4. Learning Ability Apply pronunciation drills and collaborative speaking to improve skills. Teaching Key Points Master vowel pronunciation and prosody. Understand and apply communication strategies from the dialogue. Teaching Difficulties Distinguishing similar vowel sounds (e.g., /ʌ/ vs. /juː/). Creating natural dialogues for complex scenarios (e.g., asking for help). Teaching Procedures Step 1: Warm-up & Pronunciation Introduction (8 mins) Communication Problem Sharing: Ask: “Have you ever had a fight with a friend over text? How did you solve it?” (Link to the listening dialogue). Vowel Sound Practice: Teach vowel groups from Pronunciation 1: /ʌ/: uncle, lucky, cut /juː/: cute, student, use /ɪ/: little, middle, city Students repeat and add new words (e.g., /ʌ/ → hut, /juː/ → music). Step 2: Prosody Practice (10 mins) Linking & Stress in Sentences: Students read Pronunciation 2’s sentences, marking linking (giveʌs), stress (FRIEND, MILK), and pauses. Role-play Reading: Pairs practice reading with correct prosody, competing for “Best Pronunciation.” Step 3: Listening — Communication Advice (15 mins) 3a: Pre-listening Prediction Ask: “What advice might the professor give? Face-to-face talk? Apologize?” 3a: While-listening (Fill in Blanks) Play the recording; students fill in phrases: take a break, closest friend, face-to-face talk usually works the best, takes longer and can make things worse. 3b: While-listening (Answer Questions) Replay and answer: After the professor’s speech on communication. Have a face-to-face talk. It’s hard to express feelings clearly over the phone. To resolve the conflict and save the friendship. 3c: Role-play the Dialogue Pairs act out the conversation, focusing on: Natural prosody (e.g., stress on “face-to-face talk”). Emotional tone (Jason’s worry, professor’s advice). Step 4: Communication Methods Discussion (12 mins) 2d: Analyze the Dialogue’s Advice Discuss: “Why is face-to-face communication better? When is text messaging okay?” 2e: Group Survey on Communication Students fill in the table about how they communicate with: Family: face-to-face, daily chat Friends: text messages, video calls Teachers: emails, in-person questions Classmates: face-to-face, group work Class Sharing & Comparison Volunteers share their tables, highlighting cultural differences (e.g., more formal with teachers). Step 5: Scenario-based Role-play (13 mins) 2f: Scenario Introduction Present situations: birthday invitation, asking for help, jogging invitation. Dialogue Scaffold with Expressions Provide frames: “If you come to my party, I’ll...”, “If you need help, I think you should...”, “If you join me, we can...”. Group Creation & Performance Pairs choose a scenario, write a dialogue, and perform. Class evaluates: Correct expression use. Natural conversation flow. Step 6: Summary & Homework (5 mins) Recap: Pronunciation: Vowel sounds and prosody. Communication: Face-to-face is best for conflicts; use strategies (invitation, advice) in dialogues. Homework: Pronunciation: Record yourself reading Pronunciation 2’s sentences with correct prosody. Writing: Write a short story about a communication conflict and how you resolved it. Speaking: Practice 2f’s scenarios with a family member in English. Blackboard Design Pronunciation ▍Pronunciation Focus: - Vowels: /ʌ/ (uncle), /juː/ (cute), /ɪ/ (little) - Prosody: Linking (*giveʌs*), Stress (*FRIEND*), Pauses ▍Listening Advice: - Problem: Fight over text. - Solution: **Face-to-face talk** (works best; avoids misunderstandings). ▍2f Scenario Frames: - Invitation: If you come to my party, I’ll... - Help: If you need help, I think you should... - Plan: If you join me, we can... Teaching Reflection Strengths: Prosody Practice: Focus on linking and stress improves speaking fluency. Real-Life Scenarios: Role-playing makes communication strategies practical. Improvements: Vowel Confusion: Some students may mix /ʌ/ and /ə/. Use hand gestures (e.g., open mouth for /ʌ/). Dialogue Depth: Provide more complex sentence frames (e.g., “If you could come, I’d be really happy because...”) for richer conversations. 第3课时　Grammar Focus Teaching Objectives 1. Language Competence Grammar: Grasp the “主将从现” rule: If-clause: present tense (e.g., If you want...). Main clause: future tense (will + verb), present tense (general truth), or imperative. Reading/Writing: Complete 3b (matching) and 3c (cloze) accurately. Speaking: Create original if-sentences and discuss real-life plans. 2. Cultural Awareness Recognize that effective communication (e.g., face-to-face talks) solves problems, as expressed via if-clauses. 3. Thinking Quality Inductive Thinking: Derive if-clause rules from 3a’s sentences. Logical Thinking: Link conditions to results in 3b and 3c. 4. Learning Ability Collaborate in pair work and apply grammar in creative scenarios. Teaching Key Points Master “主将从现” and match if-clauses to logical results. Teaching Difficulties Distinguishing between future (main clause) and present (if-clause) tenses. Using if-clauses in complex contexts (e.g., 3c’s dual scenarios). Teaching Procedures Step 1: Warm-up & Context Linking (5 mins) Discussion: Connect to Section A’s communication theme: “If you fight with a friend over text, what will you do?” (Elicit: If I fight with a friend, I will talk to them face-to-face.) Lead-in: Write student responses on the board, marking if-clauses and main clauses to introduce the grammar focus. Step 2: Inductive Grammar Learning (3a, 15 mins) Sentence Analysis: Students read 3a’s sentences, identify if-clauses (e.g., If you want to solve the problem) and main clauses (e.g., face-to-face talk usually works the best). Observe tenses: If-clause: present tense (want, are, stay). Main clause: present tense (general truth: works), future tense (will make, will pick), or imperative (Try). Rule Summary: Teacher guides students to conclude: If-clause (Condition) Main Clause (Result) Example Present tense Future tense (will + verb) If it rains, we will stay home. Present tense Present tense (general truth) If you heat ice, it melts. Present tense Imperative (advice) If you feel tired, take a break. Grammar Hunt: Students find more if-clauses in Section A (e.g., If you come to China, I’ll show you around.) to reinforce the rule. Step 3: Matching Practice (3b, 12 mins) Contextual Logic: Students analyze 3b’s if-clauses and options, focusing on logical connections: If we have a face-to-face meeting → B. each other better (face-to-face communication improves understanding). If the old man has difficulties in hearing → C. you can write things down (written communication helps the hearing-impaired). Pair Work: Pairs match clauses and justify choices. Class Feedback: Share answers and correct misunderstandings (e.g., If you can’t reach him by phone → A. try texting). Step 4: Application — Cloze & Discussion (3c, 18 mins) Grammar Reminder: Revisit “主将从现” and emphasize subject-verb agreement in if-clauses (e.g., things go, you let). Cloze Completion: Students fill in 3c’s blanks, focusing on: If-clauses (present tense): goes, see, let, perform, know, think. Main clauses (future tense/imperative): will stay, will tell, will make, will be. Scenario Analysis: Discuss the two contexts: Left: A reunion invitation (planning details). Right: A work training plan (arranging a meeting). Role-play: Pairs role-play the messages, practicing natural delivery of if-clauses. Step 5: Creative Output — Design Your Own If-Sentences (10 mins) Scenario Creation: Students create if-sentences about study, life, or future plans (e.g., If I study hard, I will pass the exam.). Group Sharing: Share 3 original sentences per group; vote for the most creative/practical. Error Correction: Address common mistakes (e.g., tense errors, 主谓不一致). Step 6: Summary & Homework (5 mins) Grammar Recap: Board the core structure: If + present tense (condition), Main clause + will/ present tense/ imperative (result). Homework: Writing: Write 5 if-sentences about your “ideal weekend.” Speaking: Interview a family member using if-clauses (e.g., If you had free time, what would you do?). Blackboard Design Grammar Focus: If-Clauses (主将从现) ▍Structure Rules: - If-clause: Present Tense (e.g., If you want...) - Main Clause: ✦ Future Tense (will + verb: ..will work best) ✦ Present Tense (general truth: Taking a break makes things worse...) ✦ Imperative (Try to stay calm...) Teaching Reflection Strengths: Inductive Learning: Students discover rules through analysis, enhancing retention. Contextual Practice: 3b and 3c link grammar to real-life communication, boosting relevance. Improvements: Tense Nuances: Clarify when main clauses use present tense (general truth) vs. future tense (specific future). Creative Depth: Provide “challenge prompts” (e.g., add can/may or imperatives) to enrich students’ sentences. 第4课时 Section B（1a-1e） Teaching Objectives 1. Language Competence Vocabulary: Understand hobby, subject, honest, body language and use them in context. Reading: Identify the text’s purpose (1b: “to give tips for better conversations”). Extract 4 communication tips and their examples (1c). Interpret pronoun references (1d: it = hobby, them = others, etc.). Speaking: Discuss the value of communication tips and add personal suggestions (1e). 2. Cultural Awareness Recognize that respectful communication (e.g., avoiding personal questions, listening) fosters positive interactions. 3. Thinking Quality Analytical Thinking: Break down the text into “problem + tips” structure. Critical Thinking: Evaluate the tips and propose new ones. 4. Learning Ability Apply reading strategies (scanning for details, inferring pronoun meaning) and collaborative discussion. Teaching Key Points Extract 4 communication tips and their examples. Interpret pronoun references in context. Teaching Difficulties Critically evaluating the tips (e.g., “Is ‘avoid arguing’ always good?”). Articulating personal communication strategies in English. Teaching Procedures Step 1: Warm-up & Topic Introduction (5 mins) Discussion Starter: Ask: “What do you talk about when meeting someone for the first time? E.g., hobbies, weather...” Elicit responses and note key phrases (hobby, travel, weather). Vocabulary Preview: Introduce hobby (e.g., My hobby is painting), subject (e.g., Avoid personal subjects like age). Step 2: Pre-reading — Predict the Text’s Purpose (1b, 10 mins) Title & Introduction Analysis: Read the title “How to Make a Better Conversation” and the first paragraph. Ask: “Why did the author write this text? To tell a story? To give advice?” (Elicit: To give tips for better conversations.) Text Structure Prediction: Predict the number of tips (clues: “Here are some tips...” → likely 3–5 tips). Step 3: While-reading — Extract Tips & Analyze Pronouns (1c-1d, 20 mins) 1c: Extract Communication Tips Group Work: Students read the text in groups, identifying 4 tips and their examples. Fill in the table: Tip Example 1. Listen carefully Ask questions about others’ hobbies (e.g., “Your hobby is painting? How long have you painted?”). 2. Choose the right topic Talk about travel, hobbies; avoid age, weight. 3. Be honest and sincere Say “I don’t know much about it” if unsure; mention the other person’s strengths. 4. Pay attention to body language Stand up straight, smile, make eye contact. 4. Pay attention to body language Stand up straight, smile, make eye contact. Class Sharing: Groups present their tables; teacher corrects and expands (e.g., explain “move on to another topic”). 1d: Interpret Pronoun References Pair Work: Students analyze 1d’s sentences, identifying what the bold pronouns refer to: it → hobby them → others it → the subject his or her → the other person it → body language it → having conversations Reasoning Practice: Ask: “Why is ‘it’ used here? How does context help?” (e.g., “it” follows “someone tells you their hobby” → refers to hobby). Step 4: Post-reading — Critical Discussion (1e, 15 mins) Discussion Frames: Provide sentence scaffolds to structure opinions: “I think listening is important because... (e.g., it shows respect).” “I think the tip about ______ is good because... / I’m not sure about it because...” “I would add ______ as a tip because... (e.g., ‘Use humor’).” Group Debate: Pairs discuss 1e’s questions, then share with the class: Q1: “Listening helps us understand others and respond better.” Q2: “‘Avoid arguing’ is good because it keeps conversations positive, but sometimes we should disagree politely.” Q3: “Add ‘Ask open-ended questions’ to encourage others to talk more.” Step 5: Summary & Homework (5 mins) Text Recap: Summarize the 4 tips: Listen, choose topics wisely, be honest, mind body language. Homework: Writing: Write a short essay titled “My Top 3 Communication Tips” (use the text’s tips + your own). Speaking: Interview a family member about their communication tips and report in English.
