A choice worth more than money 1 “One thousand dollars,” said the lawyer. That was what young Gillian got from his uncle’s will. The story “One Thousand Dollars” is a short story by the American writer O. Henry. Like many of his stories, it has a surprise ending. 2 The story is about a young man named Gillian. His uncle dies and leaves him one thousand dollars. But there is a rule. A lawyer tells Gillian: if he spends the money wisely, he will get fifty thousand dollars more. If he wastes it, all the money will go to Miss Hayden, a kind young woman. Gillian thinks about what to do. He does not want to waste the money on silly things. Sample Writing 3 In the end, Gillian gives the one thousand dollars to Miss Hayden. Then he goes back to the lawyer and says he lost the money by betting on a horse race. By saying that, he gives up the fifty thousand dollars. That is the surprise. He chooses love over money. 4 “One Thousand Dollars” is a warm and thoughtful story. Some people may think Gillian is foolish. But O. Henry does not ask us to laugh at him. Instead, Gillian shows us something important. He has love in his heart, and that is worth more than all the money in the world. $Unit 2 On the money Grammar Learning Objectives In this lesson, you will: 1. understand the use of when (time) and where (place) in adverbial clause. 2.complete sentences and give advice using when and where correctly. 3. write your own sentences with when and where to talk about saving money and making good choices. 5 Read the sentences from the reading passage and summarise the grammar rules.

I'd surely go where I can have ten times more pocket money. But when I have so many tins, I'll mix them up. 时间状语从句 如果我们用从句来表达一件事情或一个行为发生的时间，那么这个从句就叫时间状语从句。不同的引导词引导的时间状语从句的意思也不同。 (1)when引导的时间状语从句 when意为“当……的时候”既可以表示在某一时间点发生的事，又可以表示在某一时间段发生的事。主句与从句描述的动作或事情可以同时发生，也可以先后发生。例如: When the weather is fine, many people go out for a walk. When I got home, I found my baby girl singing in the sitting room. (2) as soon as引导的时间状语从句 as soon as意为“一……就……”，强调动作紧密相连。例如: My family always go somewhere interesting as soon as the holiday begins. We began to work as soon as we got there. (3) before / after引导的时间状语从句 before意为“在……之前”，after意为“在……之后。例如: All things are difficult before they are easy. Mother sometimes prepares dinner after I come back from school. (4)while引导的时间状语从句 while引导的时间状语从句表示主句的行为在从句行为进行的过程中发生。由于while从句表示一个持续的行为，所以从句中要用持续性动词或状态动词，且持续性动词常用进行时态。例如: While they were crossing the Atlantic, many people died. Don't make any noise while I am recording. (5)until引导的时间状语从句 until表示动作或状态一直持续到某一时刻，即“直到……为止”。例如: He waited until all the guests left. I will wait until you finish all the work. (6)since引导的时间状语从句 since引导时间状语从句时，主句常用完成时，意为“自从……"。例如: I have known Bill since he was born. He has studied very hard since he came to our school. 地点状语从句 地点状语从句主要由表示地点的词(如where,wherever和anywhere等)引导。例如: Please keep sitting where you are. He is welcome wherever / anywhere he goes. 位置灵活：从句可以放在句首（加逗号），也可以在句末。 When you get pocket money, save it. (句首) Save it when you get pocket money. (句末) 时态一致：主句是祈使句 / 将来时，从句用一般现在时。（主将从现） 时间/地点状语从句的位置及时态问题 Complete the sentences with when or where. 6 1 Josh thought for a while, and finally put his pocket money back ________ it was. 2 In many countries, people can open their own bank account _____ they reach 18. 3 Parents should start teaching their children about saving money ________ they are still young. 4 The pens here are too expensive.

The left jar has the fewest coins and the smallest sprout,and the middle jar has more coins and a taller plant, and the right jar has most coins and the tallest sprout. What do you think the picture mean? The picture means money can grow like a plant if we save and manage it wisely. Starting Out Look at the picture and answer the questions. 1 What fun facts about money do you know? 2 How important is money to you? e.g. The first paper money was invented in China over 1,000 years ago... e.g. Money is important to me because it helps me buy daily needs and keep the life going smooth. But it is not the most important thing in life—friendship, health and happiness are more valuable. Read the quotes and answer the questions. 1 What is the opinion about money in each quote? 2 Which quotes do you agree with? Why? Francis Bacon: Money is useful if you control it, but bad if it controls you. Zengguang Xianwen: A good person makes money in a fair and honest way. Benjamin Franklin: Saving money is just as good as earning it. Which quote do you agree with? Why? I agree with all three, but I like Francis Bacon’s quote most. Because money can help us live better, but if we love money too much, we may become greedy or unhappy. We should use money, not let it use us. Understanding ideas Look at the picture on the right and answer the questions. Use the words and expressions to help you. 1What is the girl doing? 2 Why is she doing this? 1 She is putting her pocket money into a moneybox. She is saving her money. She is doing this because she has a wish. She wants to save enough money to spend on something she really wants. Free Talk 1 Do you or your family save money in daily life? 2 What do you or they save money for? 3 How do you or your family save money? 4 Do you think it’s necessary or not to save money? Read the passage and find out how Money the dog helps Kira manage her money. 2 Money teaches Kira to use “dream tins”. Money helps Kira focus on her most important wishes. Money tells her to start with what she can do. Money encourages Kira to take action. Money tells Kira to use “dream tins” (moneyboxes). She writes one dream on each tin and puts her pocket money inside. Money says it’s not about how much money you have, but how you use it. So Kira should learn to deal with her money first. Money advises Kira not to make too many tins. She should just pick the most important wishes so she doesn’t get mixed up. Finally, Money encourages Kira to make a start and keep her promise to save for her dreams. Choose three tags for the main idea of the story. 3 dream tin – This is the key method Money teaches Kira to save money for her dreams. #wish list – Kira makes a list of her most important wishes, which guides her saving. #managing money – The story starts with Kira wanting more pocket money, and Money explains how to manage what she already has. Try to summarize the main idea of the story. The story teaches that instead of just asking for more pocket money, you should make a wish list, use dream tins to save your money, and learn to manage what you already have. This helps you realise your dreams step by step. Complete the review with the words and expression from the passage. 4 better parents manage use laptop wishes pocket money Think and Share 1 Do you agree that “ten times more money means ten times more problems"? Why or why not? Learning to think for question 1 Sometimes the writer doesn't explain everything in a passage. You need to make inferences. I partly agree. If you have more money but don’t know how to use it well, you may spend more and have more worries. But if you are careful and wise, more money can help you and your family. So the real problem is not the money itself, but how you manage it. 2 Will you try dream tins for yourself? Why or why not? Yes, I will try dream tins. Because it is a simple and clear way to save money for my most important wishes. It helps me focus on what I really want and not spend money on small, unnecessary things. Language Points 1.

Look and Say Look at the pictures and answer the questions. Use the words to help you. 1 1 What do you think of the couple? 2 What do you think of the gifts in the picture on the right? 3 What do you think happens to the couple? They look poor but they love each other very much. The gifts looks expensive. Maybe they sell something important to buy gifts for each other. Have you heard of the story The Gift of the Magi? The story was written by O. Henry, a famous American writer, known for his surprise endings in stories. O. Henry’s stories are often warm, funny, and a little sad. Many people around the world still love reading them today. A book review is a short text that tells us what someone thinks about a book. A book review often has title & writer main characters plot (a little bit) comment / opinion What do you think this book review will say? Predict Who are the main characters? What is the story probably about? (Look at the pictures and the title) Does the reviewer like the story? Why? Will there be a surprise ending? Why? ... Read the review and find out the writer's opinion on “The Gift of the Magi". 2 The writer thinks love is more important than money. Della and Jim are poor, but their true love makes them the wisest, and love is worth more than gold. Complete the notes with the words and expressions from the passage. 3 poor hair his watch expensive useless the wisest love more important Structure Analysis Para 1: Lead in the story and introduce the writer. Para 2-3: Retell the main plot. Para 4: Share the comment and highlight the theme. 1 What can you tell from “sixty cents of it was in pennies"? Why does the writer include this line in the review? 4 Answer the questions. We can tell that Della is very poor. She has only $1.87 in total, and 60 cents of it is in small pennies. This shows she has saved every coin she could. The writer uses this line to show how hard Della tries to save money for Jim's Christmas gift. It makes readers feel her love for Jim, and sets up the story: even though she is poor, she wants to give Jim a nice gift. It also makes the ending more touching. 2 What does the expression "breaks her heart" show about Della? Is her heart really broken? It shows Della is very sad and upset. She has tried hard to save money, but $1.87 is still not enough to buy Jim a good gift. She feels heartbroken because she can't give Jim the gift she wants. No, her heart is not really broken. It is a figure of speech. It means she is emotionally hurt, not physically hurt. 3 Why does the writer say the gifts are "useless"? The gifts are “useless” because Della sold her hair to buy a chain for Jim’s watch, but Jim sold his watch to buy combs for Della’s hair. So neither of them could use the gifts they received. But the writer says they are wise because their love is more important than the gifts. Think and Share 1 What is the surprise ending of the story? Do you like it? Della sells her hair to buy Jim a chain for his watch. But Jim sells his watch to buy Della a set of combs for her hair. So their gifts become useless. Yes, I like it. It is touching and shows how much they love each other. The surprise makes the story unforgettable. 2 Do you agree with the writer's comment on the story? Why or why not? Yes, I agree. The writer says Della and Jim are “the wisest” because they have love, which is more important than money. I agree because love and sacrifice are more valuable than any gift. Even though they are poor, their love makes them rich. Learning to think for question 2 People can have different opinions on the same thing. Learn to see things from a different point of view. I partly agree. I think love is very important, but money is also necessary for life. We need both love and money to live a happy life. Language Points 1.
