I wonder if it’s because I haven’t been able to be outdoors for so long that I’ve grown so crazy about everything to do with nature. For example, when it was so warm, I stayed awake on purpose until half past eleven on evening in order to have a good look at the moon for once by myself.

Step I Leading in As this is the first class of a new term, teacher can lead the Ss to think of making new friends in the strange school.

T: Welcome to our school, everyone. You have a new school, new teachers and new classmates. Would you like to make new friends with each other? S: Yes, of course. T: Very good! Step II Warming up

First, ask each student to make the survey by filling the form and choose the answers. Teacher shows the scoring sheet to them, add up their score and see how many points they can get all by themselves. Second, teacher shows the instruction. Get the Ss to judge which grade they belong to according to their points and decide if they are good friends or not by themselves secretly. Third, they’ve known how well they treat their friends and what they should do to be a good friend themselves. T: Do you have any friends? S: Yes, I do. I have made a lot of friends. T: Are you good to your friends? S: Yes, of course. T: We always think we are kind to our friends. But in fact, we are not quite sure if we are considerate enough?

T: OK, I’ll show you the scoring sheet on the screen. Please fill in the following form quickly. Add up your scores and see how many points

Show the Ss the instructions.

4~8

Grade I

You are always thinking about yourself. You should care more about your

friends. If you continue to be self-centered and don’t consider others’

feelings, you won’t make more friends and keep friendship for long.

9~13

Grade II You take things smoothly. You seldom hurt your friends with your benefit considered. You’d better add more affection to your friends. Friendship is about feelings and we must give as much as we take.

14~18

Grade III Wow! How faithful and generous you are! Congratulations! You are always ready

to help your friends. Whenever they have any difficulty, you’ll try your best to do what you can to help them without hesitation. T: All right. I see you’ve known how well you treat your friends and what you should do to be a good friend. I hope all of us can be good friends with each other soon. Do you agree with me? Ss: Yes, of course. Step III Pre-reading Get the Ss to discuss the questions on Page 2 with their partners. Then ask the Ss to report their work. Encourage the Ss to express their different opinions. Make it clear that not only can we make friends with human beings, but also with animals and even things that have no life. T: Now please look at the slide show. And discuss these questions with your partners. Then I’ll ask some students to report your work. Are you clear? Ss: Yes, sir/madam. Show the following on the screen. 1. Why do you need friends? Make a list of reasons why friends are important to you. 2. What do you think a good friend should be like? List what a good friend should do and share the list with your partners. 3. Does a friend always have to be a person? What else can be your friend? 4. Do you think a diary can become your friend? Why or why not? After the Ss’ discussion, teacher says the following. T: Now who’d like to answer the first question? Volunteer! Sa: Let me try. I think friends are important to all of us. Because we need to help with each other. Sb: We also need someone to care and understand, to share sorrows and happiness. Sc: Everyone needs a friend to be true to us whether near or far apart.

T: Quite right. Next question? Sd: I think my good friend should have a lot in common and our thoughts are always near.

Se: I need my friends to give me courage to solve all kinds of problem. Sf: I think my friends should support me whenever I need help. Sg: I’d like my friends to communicate with me frequently.

Sh: In my opinion, my friends should have the same kind of sense of humor so that we can laugh together.

T: Terrific! I wish everyone to have some good friends whose friendship always be treasured in our hearts. Not only can we make friends with human beings, but also with animals and even things that have no life. How about the third question? Si: Yes, because persons can understand and communicate with each other more easily and conveniently. Sj: I think other things like pets, books, toys, balls, and instruments can also be our friends. T: Wonderful! You have a very great imagination. Now who can answer the last question? Sk: Yes, I think so. Because you can tell everything to it freely, it can accompany me all the time. It never needs me to pay back.

Sl: But I don’t think so. Because it’s unbelievable for a person to communicate with a diary. And your secrets will be easily and completely let out in case that it is read by others or your diary books are lost. If I had been Anne, I would have made friends with my parents. T: Most of our friends are human beings, but sometimes we make friends with animals or even things like diary. You’ve done an excellent job. Step IV Reading Scanning Get the Ss to comprehend the passage quickly and accurately and meanwhile help the Ss to form a good habit of reading. Teacher gives the Ss a couple of minutes to look through the whole passage. Tell the Ss to read the text silently and then ask some detail questions about the text on the slide show with their partners. Teacher encourages the Ss to express their ideas. T: We’re going to learn a passage about Anne’s best friend. The story happened during

World War II. Now let’s look at the slide show. Read the text quickly and find answers to the following questions. Show the questions on the screen. 1. What was Anne’s friend? How and why did Anne make it her only true friend? 2. Had Anne ever been spellbound by nature before?

How about being in the hiding place? Why? 3. Why didn’t she go downstairs one evening until the window had to be shut? T: Now who can tell me what was Anne’s best friend? How and why did Anne make it her only true friend? S1: Anne made her diary her best friend, to whom she could tell her deepest feelings and thoughts. S2: Because during World War II, as Jewish, Anne and her family had to hide away in order not to be caught by the German Nazis.

S3: After hiding, she didn’t dare to go out. She felt very lonely and unhappy. So she couldn’t meet her old friends and make any other new friends besides her diary. S4: Maybe she didn’t trust others except her diary, to whom she could tell everything. S5: She didn’t set down a series of facts in a diary as most people do, treating her diary as her friend, to whom she told her deepest feelings and thoughts. T: Exactly. How about question 2? S6: No, she hadn’t. Nature had never have kept her spell-bound before she came to Amsterdam. S7: After being in the hiding place, Anne had grown crazy about everything to do with nature. S8: Because she didn’t dare to face nature, being afraid of being discovered by the Nazis. S9: But she was eager to enjoy the light and longed for the peace and happiness. T: Quite right. Question3? S10: Because she was held entirely in the nature’s power. S11: She didn’t dare to face the night except that evening.

S12: She was always worried about being caught by the Nazism, although she was crazy about nature. S13: It exposed the heroine’s complicated and conflicting spirit mood of either scaring and hating the war and oppress, or longing for peace and looking forward to happiness. T: Well done! I think you may continue to read it again to get more details. Skimming In this part, the Ss will read the text again and then work together with their partners to get the main idea. Then teacher shows the form on the screen. Give the a few minutes to fill in the form about the whole text. Check the answers with the whole class. T: Now please skim the passage fast to get the main idea with your partners. S1: It exposed the crimes that the Nazis oppressed the Jewish and made them suffer the extreme misery and hardship.

S2: It showed the common ideal and wish of the whole world people, hating wars and terrors while longing for peace and freedom. T: Good job. Now let’s try to obtain a general under-standing of the whole passage, including the diary. While reading, please fill in the form. Show the form with blanks on the screen. Anne’s best friend What

Turn to Page 2. Let’s look at the sentences. I wonder if it’s because I haven’t been able to be outdoors for so long that I’ve grown so crazy about everything to do with nature.

This sentence means that Anne couldn’t go out for so long that she had felt wildly exited about nature. For example, when it was so warm, I stayed awake on purpose until half past eleven one evening in order to have a good look at the moon for once by myself. This sentence tells us that on a very warm evening, Anne stayed up until half past eleven so as to look at the moon for once by herself. It was the first time in a year and a half that I’d seen the night face to face.... This sentence means that it was a year and a half since she and her family hid away and she had a look at the moon face to face with the window open by herself. Step V Comprehension Read the passage again. First ask the Ss to do Ex 1 by themselves. And then do Ex 2 with their partners. At last, get them to discuss the answers of Ex 3 in groups of 4.

T: Now please read the passage again and then turn to page 3. First let’s do Ex 1 by yourselves.

A few minutes later. T: OK, now let’s check the answers with the whole class. Ss: 1. Anne kept a diary because she could tell everything to it. 2. She felt very lonely because she couldn’t meet her friends. 3. They had to hide because Jews were caught by Nazis and put away. 4. Anne named her diary Kitty because she thought it was her best friend. 5. They were finally caught because they were discovered.

T: Now, it’s time for us to do Ex 2, please talk about the answers with your partners. The Ss are talking about their choices. T: All right! Let’s choose the correct answers and tell us why. Ss: 1. D.

Because

in her diary, she wrote that “it was the first time in a year and a half that I’d seen the night face to face.”

2. C.

Because “she wanted a friend whom she could tell everything to, like her deepest feelings and thoughts.”

But it’s dangerous to trust others easily in the hiding place. 3. D. Because she wrote in her diary that “I wonder if it’s because I haven’t been able to be outdoors for so long that I’ve grown so crazy about everything to do with nature.”

4. A. Because “Her family was Jewish so they had to hide or they would be caught by the German Nazis.” And “The moon gave far too much light.” That means the moon was so bright that it might make the Nazis discover her family hiding there. If so, they would be caught. 5. B. Because the diary was written in June, 1945 and it was in a year and a half that she’d seen the night face to face.

T: Now let’s deal with Ex 3. Please look at the slide show. Now I’ll give you a few minutes to discuss the answers to the two questions in groups of 4. Show the questions on the screen. 1. What would you miss most if you went into hiding like Anne and her family? Explain why. 2. How would you describe Anne’s feelings as she was looking out into the night sky?

S2: I missed some public places such as amusement parks, gardens, museums, and zoos. I could enjoy myself and played happily and freely like other children. S3: I missed the department store most because I could buy whatever I wanted, like

excellent toys, beautiful clothes and delicious food. I could live a happy life again. S4: I missed my relatives and friends very much. I felt extremely lonely in this strange hiding place. I needed them to support and encourage me to get through the hard time.

T: Excellent! I think you’ve understood Anne’s

deepest feelings and thoughts. The second question? S5: Anne and her family had to live the life of wandering about and departing from the world. She felt very lonely and sad, so she was just able to make a friend with her diary. S6: She worried that her family couldn’t escape from the clutches of the devil at last. They were at the danger. It was probable for them to be discovered at any time. S7: She was very angry with the crimes for the Nazis to oppress the Jewish and make them suffering the extreme misery and hardship. She also hated wars and terrors very much. S8: She longed for peace, freedom and happiness with the common ideal and wish of the whole world people.
