T: Hello, everybody, yesterday we have seen a lot of wonderful modern architectures and got to know some famous architects. Today I’d like to introduce you one of my friends. He is an architect, who can tell me the meaning of “architect”. (a person who designs buildings). He lived in this house when he was young. Do you think this house beautiful or not beautiful? (not beautiful) Can you use another word to replace “not beautiful”. (ugly). So when he became an architect, he designed some pretty houses. Not long ago he designed a new house for me. Let’s go and see my new house.

Step 2. Vocabulary

T: Welcome to my new house. Could you say something about my new home?

T: I’m not alone here, because I have two neighbors. Do you know who they are and where they live? (nest, dog house)

T: Good. Let’s try another one

Water is to fish what air is to men.

(水和魚的關(guān)系就于空氣和人的關(guān)系一樣)

T: Well done. These two sentences have something in common-they are using the same sentence pattern. What is it?

→A is to B what C is to D

show the Ss the picture and ask them to describe it.

--What can you see in the market?

--Let’s see what can we do here?

Give examples: I can have my hair cut here.

Ask the Ss to make similar sentences.

T: in all these sentences we use a sentence pattern-“have something done”.

Now let’s see the pairs of sentences, and compare A and B.

A: I can have my bike mended

B: I can have the car waiting for me.

A: I found myself tied to a tree.
