Step I Revision
1． Revise the language points in Unit 8．
Ask some questions like this: What volunteer work would you like to do?
Help the students to answer, I’d like to…/I love to…/I hope to…
2． Practice the dialogue in Activity 3c on page 62 again． Get students to role play the similar dialogues with the following．

Step Ⅱ 1a
This activity introduces new vocabulary which can be used to narrate past events．
First write by the time on the blackboard． and tell the class the meaning of it．
"by the time" means not later than, before, as soon as, or when the indicated comes． When we use the words． "By the time…, "we are talking about two different things that happened in the past． Say this sentence to the class: By the time the teacher came in, the students had begun reading English．
Tell them to note the struture "had begun" in this sentence． Begun is the past participle of begin． When we talk about two events both happened in the past, the one which happened earlier should use and plus a past participle． The words following By the time…, talk about the thing that happened later． And tell the students when they use had plus a past participle, they are using the Past Perfect Tense． Also explain what is the past participle form of a verb for the students． Tell them it is as the same as the past form for a regular verb． And they have to remember the irregular verbs’ participles one by one．
Play a game to help the students understand the sentences with the words By the time…Do it like this:
Pretend that the teacher will leave the classroom and the students will do some things． When the teacher returns． the class will make statements starting with By the time…
Write By the time I came back…on the blackboard．
Say to the class, By the time I came in． what had happened?
Help one student to answer like this, By the time the teacher came in, Don had written his name on the blackboard．
Then get more students to answer differently, such as,
By the lime the teacher came in, we had discussed an English problem．
By the time the teacher came in, I had drawn a picture．
Write these sentences on the blackboard, and teach the students to read several times．
Read the instructions to the students and read these questions to the class as well．
What do you usually do in, the morning before school? Do you like morning?
Why or why not?
Choose one good student to answer them by saying something he or she usually does in the morning．
He or she may answer like this,
I usually get up early, wash my face and have breakfast． I like mornings because the air is fresh, or I usually get up as late as possible． Then I have to wash my face and have breakfast in a hurry． I often rush to school without breakfast． Sometimes I forget something at home． I don’t like mornings because I am always too busy．
Then have the whole class practice in pairs． Ask each other the questions．
After they finish talking, ask one or two pairs to say their conversations to the class． Correct the mistakes they may make with the other students．
Call the students’ attention to the pictures in Activity la． Ask students to tell what they see．
Say, Any sentences which make sense are accepted to describe the pictures．
The girl in the pictures is Tina． Present the new words by providing sentences showing the meanings of them like this:
T: What can you see in Picture 1?
S1: She slept a long time．
T: That’s correct． She slept too late． She overslept． Class repeat． She overslept．
Ss: She overslept．
T: What do you see in Picture 2?
S2: Her brother or sister is in the bathroom．
T: That’s correct． She wants to go into the bathroom． She can’t because someone is taking a shower． Class repeat． Someone is taking a shower．
Ss: Someone is taking a shower．
Write these words on the blackboard:
overslept, taking a shower, had left, left her backpack at home．
Then tell students to talk about the pictures in groups of four． Move around the classroom, listening to students and offering help． Make sure that they talk in English．
After they all finish talking, ask different groups to tell the class about the pictures． They may say like this:
Tina overslept in the morning． She wanted to go to the bathroom, but her brother had already gotten in the shower． When she got to the bus stop, the bus had already left．
She had to run to school． After she got to school, she realized she had left her backpack at home． The sentences can vary, but should be correct．
Step Ⅲ 1b
This activity gives students practice in understanding the target language in spoken conversation．
Ask the students to read the instructions together． Have them look at the two columns, A and B ,in the chart． Point out the sample answer． Read the two parts of the sentence．
Then go over the other unconnected parts of sentences, too．
You will connect the two parts of the sentences, connect a sentence beginning in the first column with the end of that sentence in the second column． Please guess the other two sentences before I play the tape．
I guess most of the children can get the correct sentences by guessing． So just let them guess． Don’t tell them whether their answers are right or wrong．
OK, just keep your answers by guessing．
Let’s decide if they are right by listening to the tape now．
Play the recording for the first time．
Students only listen． Then play it a second time． Let students match two parts of each sentence． Check the answers by asking some students to tell their answers．
Make sure that all of them have got the correct answers by listening． Say congratulations to the students who get the answers correctly by guessing．

Most people who speak English as a native language don’t have the same grammatical background as people who study English as a second language．
However, what a person who was born speaking English knows is whether or not things sound "right"． He or she might not be able to explain the reason, but will usually have a good sense of how English should be used． Because English is a language made up from many different languages with a lot of odd rules, a learner should be a bit flexible and understand that some rules are made to be broken．
