Step II. Listening (Using language)

The Ss will hear how Zhou Yang called the assistant of Liu Ming’s to make an appointment, hoping to interview Yao Ming about his decision to work abroad.

T: OK. You’ve got many questions to ask Yao Ming. Let’s listen to the tape and see if we can make an appointment with Yao Ming. Go through the questions quickly on Page 32.

Play the tape. Ss write down the answers and check the answers with their partners.

T: Now listen again and try to answer the questions.

Pair work: Practice in pairs making appointments. One of you needs to have your picture taken for a magazine who would like to have it taken in the afternoon because you must have your hair cut in the morning. The other is the photographer who wants to take the picture in the morning because he / she won’t be free in the afternoon. See how well you can arrange the meeting.

Step III Listening (WB P62)

The students will hear a conversation between Susan and Greg. They are asked to do the exercise according to the tape.

T: Many people think that making a radio or TV interview is fun and interesting. But there can be problems. What will be problems? Listen to the tape and try to finish the exercise.

Listen to the tape again and check the answers with the whole class.

Students answer the questions in pairs. One asks the questions and the other answers.

Step IV Listening Task (WB P66)

Put students into pairs. Ask them to think of as many practical situations as they can, where being “on the spot” is very important to understanding what is happening. Discuss why an eyewitness would help in each situation.

Go through the task and listen again and do the exercise.
