Reference:

I’m having a great time here. The city is very romantic. I’m going to visit the museum with the famous painting” Mona Lisa”. I wish I could speak better French so that I would communicate with local people.

Everything goes well with me. We arrived at the hotel in Paris yesterday evening. We unpacked our bags and had a bath there. I went to bed early, for I was very tired.

Now my friends are playing volleyball on the beach. Some are swimming with dolphins in the sea happily.

Tomorrow, we are going to visit the Eiffel Tower and the museum with the famous painting “Mona Lisa”. I’m going to take photos to share with you.

I like the city very much. It’s very romantic and its food is delicious. I’m sure it will be an unforgettable trip. I wish you were here too. We are going to return next Monday.

love,

Lily

I got here using a lift. It’s very tall. Seen from the top of the tower, the city is very beautiful. To share with you, I’m taking photos now. I’d like you to tell me where you are traveling and what you are doing there.

1. Ask several Ss to make a report.

Step2. Grammar I

T: From your reports I learn that we all have a good time when traveling. But we have to come back now.

1. Through the dialogue between several students and I, I present useful questions and expressions as followings.

Reference: When are you off/ returning to Wenzhou? When are you leaving for Wenzhou? When are you coming back to Wenzhou? How are you getting there? Is anybody seeing you off at the airport/ at the railway? Are your parents meeting you ?

2. To consolidate these useful expressions , I ask the rest of students these questions.

T: Look at the sentence in the fourth line: My brother Bob is going with me to the airport . What tense is used here? But is Bob going to the airport now or next Thursday evening? Then why do we use the present continuous tense instead of the future tense?

7. I explain a new usage of the present continuous after Ss think about my question.

T: When we express our plans we can use the present continuous tense instead of the future tense. Please tell me such more sentences in the dialogue.

Step3.Listen to broadcast calls at the airport

T: I am coming back by air. Suppose I am at the airport now. This is my plane ticket. What information can you get from the ticket? Here is a broadcast call, from which we can learn the boarding time and boarding gate. For example, 各位旅客请注意, 从巴黎飞往北京的AB110 次航班在20分钟后起飞.请各位旅客在D5登机口作好登机准备. 谢谢!Where’s the destination? What’s the flight number / boarding gate? Please listen to the English broadcast calls and pay attention to the destination, flight number and boarding gate.

If you want to travel there, I’m happy to be your guide. Now let’s enjoy some pictures first. Beautiful? That’s why there are always many tourists coming there every year, even including some foreigners. The village leader is planning to develop another mountain to tourists. Because it can help villagers make money. But the problem is that many villagers are against that. Because they think tourism is bad for the environment. What do you think of it? If you were the villagers, you would be for it or against it? Why?

They are Red River Village and Snow Mountain. We need to have a debate to decide the destination. You are divided into two groups. Which group gives me more reasons and better reasons, then this group will be the winner.
