Task 1: Warming up

Ask the students to discuss the questions. Sample discussion dialogues: 1. Sa: Have you ever read a fantasy story?

Sb: No, never.

Sa: Why not?

Sb: Because I don’t think it interesting. Everything in it is unbelievable.

2. Sa: Have you ever read His Dark Materials?

Sb: No.

Sa: Would you like to read it?

Sb: Yes. I have never read any fantasy novels. Maybe after reading it, I will

feel interested in it. How about you?

Sa: No. I wouldn’t. Because the story is too long. 3. Sa: Have you ever read a Harry Potter novel or seen one of the films?

Sb: Yes, I’ve read the English version and seen all the films.

Sa: Did you enjoy them?

Sb: Yes. It’s a great novel I’ve ever read. I really felt the films are more

interesting. How about you?

Sa: No. I don’t like such stories. I like to read some-thing true to life.
