This is a very important traditional festival in China. We celebrate it to remember a great man named Qu Yuan. He was a patriotic poet from ancient China. Let's learn how to say it in English: The Dragon Boat Festival. Repeat after me. ‹#› Step 2: Presentation - Vocabulary（新知呈现-词汇） New Words（生词）: dragon boat race(龙舟比赛) Let's read:dragon boat race.（龙舟比赛） Look at the picture, they are having a dragon boat race.（看图片，他们正在举行龙舟比赛） 1.7.2013 Now let's learn some new words about the Dragon Boat Festival. The first one is "dragon boat race". Look at this picture, people are rowing the dragon boats very fast. This is a dragon boat race. Let's say it together: dragon boat race. ‹#› Step 2: Presentation - Vocabulary（新知呈现-词汇） New Words（生词）: zongzi(粽子) Let's read: zongzi. Zongzi is a traditional food for the Dragon Boat Festival.（粽子是端午节的传统食物。） 1.7.2013 What do we eat during the Dragon Boat Festival? Yes, zongzi! Zongzi is a kind of sticky rice dumpling wrapped in bamboo leaves. It's very delicious. Let's learn the word: zongzi. Easy, right? Just like the Chinese pronunciation. ‹#› Step 2: Presentation - Vocabulary（新知呈现-词汇） make zongzi (包粽子) eat zongzi (吃粽子) watch the dragon boat race (看龙舟比赛) 1.7.2013 Besides racing and eating, what else do people do? Let's see. Some people make zongzi at home. So we say "make zongzi". And of course, we "eat zongzi". Many people also go to the river to "watch the dragon boat race". Let's practice these phrases together. ‹#› Grammar Focus: Present Continuous Tense （现在进行时） We use the present continuous tense to talk about actions happening now. （我们用现在进行时陈述现在正在发生的动作。） 结构：主语 +be (am / is / are) + Verb-ing Let's learn the "-ing" form: have →having watch →watching make →making eat →eating Rule:For most verbs, just add "-ing". 1.7.2013 To describe what people are doing now, we use the present continuous tense. The structure is simple: subject plus 'be' verb plus the verb with '-ing'. Let's look at the verbs we just learned. 'have' becomes 'having', 'watch' becomes 'watching', 'make' becomes 'making', and 'eat' becomes 'eating'. It's easy, just add '-ing'! ‹#› Step2:Presentation-Sentence Pattern（新知呈现-句式） 01 Asking（问） What are they doing? 02 Answering （答） They are +Verb-ing... 03 Example（举例） • What are they doing? They arehavinga dragon boat race.（他们正在举行龙舟比赛。） • What are they doing? They arewatchingthe dragon boat race.（他们正在观看龙舟比赛） 1.7.2013 Now let's learn the key sentence pattern for today. To ask about what people are doing, we say: "What are they doing?" And to answer, we say: "They are..." plus the verb-ing. For example, if we see people in a dragon boat, we ask "What are they doing?" and answer "They are having a dragon boat race." Let's try another one. If people are looking at the race, we say "They are watching the dragon boat race." ‹#› Practice the Sentence Pattern（练习句式） What are they doing? They aremakingzongzi. What are they doing?
