Teaching goals

1.       Help the students learn to get information by listening, and cultivate the listening ability.

2.       Get the students to talk about their various opinions freely in English.

Step1. Reading (WB)

T: As we know, most of the great people are also important and famous, but are important people the great ones?

S:

(Show some pictures of Bill Gates, his software and his company). T: Do you know who he is?

S:

T: What else do you know about him?

S: CEO of software

T: Great, so many of you know him. He is really so famous. But is he a great man?

S1: I think Bill Gates is / is not _____________, because ________________________________.

S2:

T: You see, so you have different ideas. Let’s have a look at him in the two passages. Let’s read the passage quickly and fill in the information sheet.

T: What does the follower of Bill Gates think of him?

Why does he think Bill is great?

What about Bill’s competitor?

Why?

Please read the passage again more carefully and find out the evidence to support each point. Lets’ have a debate. The following chart may help you.

(T can ask Ss to finish the chart first, and then ask them to give a short report to tell us the reason why Bill Gates is a great man or why not.) T: Thank you for your excellent report. In a word, a great man should be the one who has followed his/her ideas and sacrificed something so that they could be realized. If he/she has not gone through struggles and difficulties for their noble cause, they can’t be called a great person. From your report, we find that different people have different ideas, not only on this affair, but also on some common things in our daily life. Here is the same example which happened in our listening text.

Step 2. Listening  (WB)

(Show Ss a picture of an accident) T: What happened in the picture? If you witness the accident, what will you do?

Ss: Call 120. / Tell policeman the truth. / …

T: If the policeman asks you to describe what you have witnessed, what will you say?

S1: …

T: What’s your point of view?

S2: …

T: You see, on this accident, you two have different views. Usually, after an accident, the police will not just ask one person. Can you guess why? What about listening to the tape to find out the reason?

(Ask the Ss to listen to the tape.) T: So why will the police not just ask one person?

S: …

T: Instead, what will the police do?

S: He will ask everyone present.

T: But sometimes, people will tell different stories after an accident, just as what you did just now. Do you know why? So listen to the tape again and find out the answers to these two questions:

  Q1: Why will people tell different stories after an accident?

  Q2: What does “a point of view” mean?

(Check the answers.) T: You see, when you look at people or things, you may have a different point of view from others. On this accident, two people have different points of views. Please listen to the tape once again, and take some notes of the information on the accident by person A and person B.
