Unit 2 Getting along

Lesson 4: Developing ideas

（Listening and Speaking）

I. Teaching Objectives

（一）Language Ability

1.                            Understand specific information and main ideas from a listening material about a friendship conflict and its resolution.
2.                            Use English to discuss ways to solve interpersonal problems and express suggestions (e.g., "You should...", "Why don’t you...").

（二）Cultural Awareness

1.                            Explore how conflict resolution is valued in English-speaking cultures (e.g., direct communication, taking responsibility).
2.                            Recognize that while approaches may vary, the core of getting along—respect and empathy—is universal.

（三）Thinking Ability

1.                            Analyze the causes and solutions of the conflict in the listening material, developing logical reasoning.
2.                            Evaluate different conflict-solving strategies and choose appropriate ones for specific situations.

（四）Learning Ability

1.                            Improve listening skills, such as identifying the sequence of events and emotional cues.
2.                            Learn to cooperate in group discussions to propose and refine solutions.

II. Teaching Key Points

1.                            Key vocabulary: misunderstand, apologize, forgive, compromise, make up.
2.                            Understanding the structure of a conflict story: Problem → Emotions → Resolution.

III. Teaching Difficult Points

1.                            Inferring the underlying reasons for a conflict (e.g., unspoken feelings, different perspectives).
2.                            Using polite and effective language to give suggestions (e.g., "Maybe you could... instead of...").

IV. Teaching Procedures

（一）Lead-in（5 minutes）

•                               Activity 1: Show pictures of two friends arguing and then hugging. Ask: What might they be arguing about? How could they solve it?

•                               Activity 2: Brainstorm: "What words do people use when resolving conflicts?" (e.g., "I’m sorry," "Let’s talk"). List ideas on the board.

Design Intent: Activate prior knowledge about conflict resolution and set a focus for the lesson.

（二）Pre-listening（10 minutes）

•                               Activity 1: Present new vocabulary with scenarios:
  •                                              Misunderstand: "Lily thought Tom ignored her, but he was just busy—they misunderstood each other."
  •                                              Compromise: "Anna wanted to watch a movie; Bob wanted to play football. They compromised: movie first, then football."

Students read aloud and make sentences about their own experiences.

•                               Activity 2: "Word Chain" game: Start with "conflict" and take turns saying related words (e.g., "conflict → argue → apologize → forgive").

Design Intent: Help students learn vocabulary in a meaningful context.

（三）While-listening（15 minutes）
