2. Ask questions about Sang Lan: Do you know her? Do you want to know more about her? Ask me any questions about Sang Lan. (Write the students’ questions on the blackboard.) (换个角度，让老师成为被提问的对象，促进学生思维。) 3. (Introduce reading strategy.)When a person asks another person a serious of questions, an interview takes place. You, asking me a lot of questions, are called an interviewer, while I am an interviewee. Open the books and turn to page 18. Look through the passage quickly and tell me who is the interviewer and who is the interviewee in the passage. (Let students feel what an interview is and predict what will be discussed in this interview. Explain reading strategy: how to read an interview.) (了解了interviewer & interviewee，为文章的阅读做好铺垫。) Step 2.
