Unit 1 Laughter is good for youPeriod 4TaskTeaching aims:After this class, the students will be able to 1. get necessary information about crosstalk in English via listening, reading and discussion2. know more about the similarities and differences between the western stand-up and Chinese crosstalk.3. be more aware of protecting our traditional culture.4. know how to answer questions in certain sentence patterns and write a complete passage about crosstalk. Teaching procedures: Step 1 lead in (PPT4)Tell the Ss one of the best ways to learn English well is to communicate with others. Then introduce a foreigner (if you have a foreign friend, you can introduce him to the class, which will increase the Ss interest. If not, just suppose there is a foreign friend Bill.) to the Ss and tell the Ss: “Bill is interested in Chinese culture. Recently he is interested in Chinese crosstalk and asks me a lot of questions about it. In addition, he asked me to email the answers to him.” ( Show the Ss 8 questions about crosstalk)Questions about crosstalk1. What is crosstalk?2. When did it start?3. What different parts does a crosstalk performance contain?4. Where can you see or hear it?5. Could you name some famous performances (both living and dead) and give some detailed information about them?6. Could you give some information about famous foreign performers?7. What should you do if you want to learn it?8. What are the similarities and differences between the western stand-up and Chinese crosstalk?Ask the Ss to go through the questions and see if there is one or two questions that they already have the answers.Step Listening1. Since the Ss can only answer one or at most two questions, we need help. Ask the Ss to listen to the talk show to get some information.(Page 11) Play the tape for the Ss, and then allow them some time to compare notes with their partners to see if they have the same idea. Then ask the Ss if they need to listen to it again. If they need, listen to it again. If not, check the answers. （PPT6-7）2. After checking the answers, ask the Ss to go back to the questions and see if there are any questions that can be answered. It will be easy now for the Ss to find the answers to question No. 1, 3, 4. （PPT8-10）Ask the Ss about question No. 2. The answer doesnt lie in the notes on Page 11, but they can get some hints from the listening material. Some Ss can get the word “Qing Dynasty”. Since the Ss can not get all the necessary information, give the Ss some key words and ask them to make up sentences about the history of crosstalk. The key words are: “Qing Dynasty, 150 years, the first crosstalk performer, Zhu Shaowen, Beijing”, then we can get “Crosstalk began in Beijing during the Qing Dynasty, over 150 years ago. The first crosstalk performer is called Zhu Shaowen and he started such a comedy form in Beijing.” （PPT11）3. Ask the Ss if there is any other question that can be answered. That will be question No. 7. It is not difficult for the SsThey must understand the Chinese language and Chinese culture to enjoy crosstalk. Step III ReadingThe teacher may say to the Ss: “So if you want to learn crosstalk, you have to learn the language, but if you want to become a crosstalk comedian, is it enough to learn the Chinese language? What else do you need to do if you want to become a crosstalk performer?” 1. Ask the Ss to read the passage on Page 11. Ask the Ss to find the three stages to become a crosstalk performer. （PPT15）(1) Have an interest in it;(2) Listen to and copy the traditional pieces of crosstalk;(3) Create crosstalk dialogues in pairs.From the three stages, we can conclude that besides language we also need “interest”, “practice/hard work” and “creativity”.(Ask the Ss to summarize it )2. Ask the Ss to go back to the questions and see if there is any more questions that can be answered.（PPT13-14） The Ss will find that question No. 5 and 6 can be answered. After each question, allow the Ss a chance to enjoy a short video about foreign performers and Ma Sanli. After the Ss enjoyed the crosstalk by Ma Sanli. Give them some information about Ma Sanli: “Ma Sanli was born in 1914 and started to perform crosstalk in 1930, at the age of 16. Actually he was from a famous crosstalk family. He talked about small things happening in our daily life, so he was very popular among common people.” (The teacher can choose another performer according to his/her own interest.)Ask the Ss about their favorite crosstalk performer. Usually the Ss can only name their favorite comedian, so ask the Ss to collect information about their favorite performers and add the information to the email.3. After question 6, the teacher can show the Ss a video of the foreign performers to add to the interest.(It depends.)Step IV Discussion Tell the Ss: “Now we have only question No. 8 left, and we cannot get any information from the listening and reading. Fortunately, we talked about “stand-up” in the reading part of this unit, and we have talked a lot about crosstalk today, so now it is your turn to come up with something about this question.”1. Allow the Ss around 5 minutes to discuss in groups of four and then collect their opinions. (During this part, the teacher should give some help according to the Ss reaction.)Similarities: (1) The comedians are right in front of the audience, and communicate with the audience and amuse the audience; (2) The comedians will use different skills to makes jokes; (3) The comedians try to reveal something about lifeDifferences: (1)Stand-up- Only involves one comedian; CrosstalkInvolves one, two, three or more people; (2) Stand-up-Involves more improvising; Crosstalkis more fixed.(The similarity like “they are both comedies and about telling jokes” and the difference like “the languages are different, one is in English, the other is in Chinese” are obvious, and can be dealt with orally.)Step Composition 1. Ask the Ss: “How can we put all the sentences into a whole passage? Can we just put the answers together one by one?” 2. Guide the Ss to use certain sentence patterns to organize their language. You wanted to know Since you asked about I know you need/want/would like information about You asked me about Regarding your question about In answer to/ In reply to/ In response to your question about Make a conclusion that when you answer a question, you have to mention it. Then the reader will be clear which question you are talking about.3. Give the Ss example sentences to make sure they know how to do it. (1) In reference to your question about famous performers, Id like to say something about Ding Guangquan. He is (2) You wanted to know what different parts a crosstalk performance contains, and I would say it involves talking, imitating, singing and telling jokes.4. Practice Ask the Ss to choose one or two questions to answer, using the sentence patterns.Step Writing Write an e-mail to the foreigner, and you should include in your e-mail:1. The answers to questions 1,2,3 and 5;2. Add the information you get after class about your favorite crosstalk performer;3. Choose another 2 questions to answer. If possible, choose the emails of one or two students who finished early to read to the class. Ask other Ss to give comments.Step Language study1.Then they move on to creating crosstalk dialogues with him. 然后他們接下去和他一起創(chuàng)作相聲對(duì)話。(move on to sth./ doing = go on to do sth.)注: move on to中to為介詞，后跟名詞或doing作賓語(yǔ)。After playing the violin for ten years, Sophia moved on to the piano.
