T: Have you finished yet? (S: yes.) OK. Now let’s check the answers. Who will give the first answer?
S1: A. “ English has the most speakers now.”

Paragraph 1

T: Can you see the example in the paragraph?
Ss: Yes.
T: Is it used to support the first sentence?
Ss: No.
T: Actually it is used to support the sentence--- However, they may not be able to understand everything. Generally speaking, the sentence beginning with such words--- however, but ---after a statement is what the writer intends to give emphasis on. Thus, it is often the key sentences. So why can’t they understand each other?
Ss: World English are different from each other in some ways.
T: Exactly. That’s what the writer intends to illustrate. (Write it down on the blackboard.) What about the third paragraph?
