Warming up 1.Greetings. 2.Check the answers of the exercises about the attributive clauses. Step 2 Reading，Listening and Writing T：Today we’ll learn a passage about facts and opinions，but before we come to the text，please answer the following questions：

1.What must a judge do in a trial? 2.What is a fact?

3.What is an opinion? Then check the answers. T：Now please listen to the tape and make sure what the three people say about the missing Amber Room，pretending that you are judges.While you are listening you can take notes and fill in the forms.Decide which of the three people you think gave the best evidence.In other words，find out who is giving the most facts. Listen to the tape for three times，then show some Ss’ notes on the screen，and check the answers. Step 3 Reading on Workbook T：As we know cultural relics are important and useful，it’s necessary for us to protect them.After all，they belong to the whole world.Today，we’ll read a passage that is about a common person who saves the cultural relics—BIG FENG TO THE RESCUE.Read the passage for the first time and answer：

1

Why does Big Feng want to save cultural relics? Suggested answer：

Big Feng and his friends offer each other help whoever needs help.So Feng believes that his work to save cultural relics is a way to thank his friends. T：Now listen to tape，and answer the following questions：

1.What does “a big heart”

mean?In which ways does Feng Jicai show that he has a big heart? 2.Why does he think it is more important to do this than to write his novels? 3.It is very time-consuming（耗时的）

and expensive for Feng Jicai to take care of cultural relics.Can you think of some other ways to help him with his projects? First，the students discuss in pairs，then check the answers. Suggested answers：

1.That he has a big heart means that he is very kind.You might say

he is a gentle giant.His real name is Feng Jicai，and he has written many novels about life in China.Several years ago，he put down his pen and began to protect cultural relics in Tianjin，where he lives. 2.He knows the past is not only for us to enjoy but also for the children of the future，so we should protect some old things such as the old streets and buildings.And more people follow what he does，not what he says.So he thinks it is important to do this than to write his novels.

3.Yes，I think there are some other ways to help him with his projects.For example，he and his friends can make a video about the old streets and buildings and broadcast this program on TV so that more people can know the importance of protecting the cultural relics and really take efficient actions to protect them. T：Now read the text again and answer how he saves the cultural relics of his hometown. While the students read the text，the

teacher should ask them to underline the key words that are useful for them to answer the question.Later，the teacher gives the answers on the screen.. Suggested answer：

In order to protect the cultural relics of his hometown，he goes out and does a lot of things as possible as he can.One of his biggest projects was to protect the oldest street in Tianjin.Another project was more successful：he got the government to buy some land in the center of the city so it could not be sold to businesses.Not long ago，he and other writers and artists took photos of the old parts of Tianjin.And the photos were put into an expensive book that was very popular.And the money from the book helps his projects. T：Who can list other famous cultural relics in China besides the ones mentioned in the reading? Suggested answers：

There are many cultural relics in China besides the ones mentioned in the reading，such as：

The Great Wall，The Summer Palace，Imperial Palace of the Ming and Qing Dynasties，the Forbidden City，Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor，the West Lake and so on. Step 4 Discussion T：After we learn the passage about Big Feng，we know that everyone can do something to protect our cultural relics，so now please discuss in groups what we should do to protect our cultural relics. After five minutes，ask some Ss to tell their groups’ ideas and encourage the Ss to do it in our real life.
