    advocate 2. tendency 3. housewife 4. obtain 5. schedule T: All of you did a good job. I think both Group A and Group B are winners. Thank you. Step II Warming up Talk about the pictures with the teacher’s help. T: Yesterday you were told to google Confucius, Anton Makarenko, Anne Sullivan and Tao Xingzhi. Try to say something about when they lived, where they came from, how they taught their students and so on. Who would like to say something about Confucius? Sa: I’d like to try. Confucius was born in 551 BC, and died in 479 BC. According to Chinese tradition, Confucius was a thinker, political figure, educator, and founder of the Ru School of Chinese thought. Sb: It is said that Confucius’ great grandfather had moved from his native land Song to Lu, somewhere near the present town of Qufu in southeastern Shandong. Sc: Confucius’ teachings, conversations and exchanges with his students are recorded in the Lunyu. Study, for Confucius, means finding a good teacher and imitating his or her words and deeds. A good teacher is someone older who is familiar with the ways of the past and the practices of the ancients. T: Very good. Now who would like to say something about Anton Makarenko? Sd: Anton Makarenko was born in 1888 and died in 1939. He was one of the outstanding Soviet educators. Se: I would like to quote something from Makarenko’s works, which shows his way of teaching: “... education is a process that is social in the broadest sense....With all the highly complex world of ambient activity, the child enters into an infinite number of relationships, each of which constantly develops, interweaves with other relationships and is compounded by the child’s own physical and moral growth. All this `chaos’ is seemingly quite unquantifiable but nevertheless gives rise at each particular instant to definite changes in the personality of the child. Sf: I have another piece from his works to share: “Labour becomes an effective means of communist education only when it forms a part of the general educational process; at the same time, this has no meaning unless all children and adolescents are involved in types of socially useful work suited to their age. T: All right. So much for the Russian educator. How about Anne Sullivan? Sg: Anne Sullivan was a devoted teacher who, despite her own handicap, demonstrated a tireless commitment to a student who had severe learning disabilities. She developed a method of touch teaching, using direct experience rather than attempting to explain a concept; and she reasoned that children learned by imitation and repetition, working out their own understanding of the subject. Sh: I’d like to say something about Mr Tao Xingzhi. I have got a lot about him from the Internet. T: OK, try to give a brief introduction to him. Sh: I’ll try. Mr Tao Xingzhi is a great Chinese educationalist for the people. Born on October 18 in She County of Anhui Province, he went to study in the US after graduating from Jinling University in 1914. He came back to China in 1917. Mr Tao Xingzhi was always “giving whole-heartedly to the people and taking nothing back , sharing both happiness and sadness with the general public and working closely with Chinese Communist Party. Mr Tao spared no effort for his whole life and had made indelible contribution to the cause of people’s education, liberation and democracy. Mr Tao Xingzhi left behind works of 6 million words, which are treasures for the mankind. Pooling the souls of thinking of different educationists, he founded the theory of “Life Education , laying the spiritual foundation for the reform and development of Chinese people’s education. Mr Guo Moruo praised him “Two thousand years ago, we had Confucius, and now two thousand years later, we have Mr Tao Xingzhi . A learned and respectable paragon for teachers, Mr Tao is deserved to be a “Giant in China’s modern history of education. Mr Tao Xingzhi belongs to not only China, but also the whole world. T: I’m glad to see you have got so much information about the great educators by yourselves. Now, everyone is required to finish the chart on Page 101 according to the information we gathered. And who’d like to finish the chart on the blackboard? Volunteers? A student comes to the blackboard and finishes the chart below: Educator Time Country Way of teaching Confucius 551-497 BC China Finding a good teacher and imitating his or her words and deeds Anton Makarenko 1888-1939 Russia Entering into a lot of relationships, each of which constantly develops, interweaves with other relationships and is compounded by the child’s own physical and moral growth. Anne Sullivan 1866-1936 America Using direct experience rather than attempting to explain a concept; learning by imitation, repetition, and working out their own understanding of the subject Tao Xingzhi 1891-1946 China To give all citizens equal opportunities for education. To create an environment that would encourage learning and the development of learning. To live a democratic life through experiencing the democratic process. T: Very good. I hope you can find more educators and their ways of teaching. Step III Speaking T: When information is presented graphically, it is because the writer wants to draw attention to a change, a difference or a trend. When you read a graph or a chart, ask yourself what change, difference or trend he or she wants to show you. Look at the shape of the graph or the chart, rather than the details. Be careful to describe the subject of the graph rather than the picture the graph makes. For example, you cannot say “the bars get taller from left to right . You have to say “the number of children attending school increased between 1985 and 2002 . Here we have two graphs on Page 102 (Show the graphs on the slides). First you’re required to understand them and then try to say something about them. Students read the graphs and try to describe them, and finish the questions on the right of the graphs. Three minutes later. T: Who’d like to show us your description of the first graph about “School-age children attending school and also draw the bar for 2010? Sa: The number of school-age children attending school increased between 1985 and 2002. In 1985, more than 95 percent of school-age children attended school, while in 2002 more than 99 percent of school-age children attended school, rising by nearly 4 percent. I think, it is with the help of the government that more and more school-age children have the chance of attending school. According to the graph and the present situation as well, it is hoped that all the school-age children will go to school in 2010. I would like to put the bar for 2010 as high as 100%. (Show his graph to the class) Sb: I don’t agree with you. Because a lot of mountainous villages don’t have schools, teachers and equipment for teaching. We still have a long way to go. Though we have achieved a lot, and we are trying our best, we have to keep in mind that many problems remain there for us to overcome, and some of them will take a long time, perhaps more than 10 years, or twenty years. T: Very good. It’s hard to tell who is right. But we can tell that both of you are reasonable in thinking like this. Let’s hope that all school-age children can attend school as soon as possible. Now who’d like to show us your description of the second graph about “People aged 15 and over who are unable or find it very difficult to read and also draw the line to 2006? Sc: Fewer and fewer people are unable to read or find it very difficult to read. In 1997, nearly 18 percent of people aged 15 and over are unable or find it very difficult to read, while in 2002 only 8 percent of people aged 15 and over are unable or find it very difficult to read, going down by nearly 10 percent. As we can see, people are becoming richer and richer; more and more people begin to realize the importance of providing their children with a proper education. Of course, our government is playing an important role in helping more children and adults learn to read. According to the graph and the present situation as well, it is certain that all the children and adults will be able to read in 2006. I would like to put the line to 2006 down to bottom. (Show his graph to the class) Sd: I hope so, too. But I don’t think so. After all, facts are facts. I once met a group of school-age children in the railway station. They were just wandering, begging, stealing something here and there for a living. They could not read, and none of them had ever been to a school. My parents travel a lot, and they often meet such people wherever they go. China has the largest population in the world, and many people refuse to learn because they don’t have the money, even for water and bread. T: Thanks for your words. It reminds us that we have the responsibility to help those who are poor. Let’s do something for the Hope Project in your spare time, OK? Ss: OK. Step IV Talking T: We have known something about Chinese education by getting to the famous educators and the graphs. Now, we will have a discussion about two topics. Topic one is about the achievements, progress and problems in education in China. You may use the words on Page 102. Show the following words on the slide. a heavy workload, to reduce the workload, to meet parents’ expectations, to be strict with, to raise academic standards, under high pressure T: Topic two is about lifelong learning. You may read the short paragraphs on Pages 235-236 and finish the first two exercises before the discussion. Group A, B and C are required to discuss Topic one; Group D, E and F will discuss Topic two. Five minutes’ discussion and then each group will be asked to present your ideas. Begin! Students have a discussion in group work for five minutes. Five minutes later. Sa: First, we think China is making great progress in education, whether for school-age children or for those who can not read. As we see from the graphs, people are putting more money and effort into their children’s education. Second, there still remain a lot of problems. For example, the government doesn’t offer enough money for education for all, and the teachers are not well paid. T: Thank you. I really appreciate your idea, and I hope you will get a higher position in the government office, therefore you can give teachers high salaries. Anybody else? Sb: The teachers are living a simple life and working very hard. So are the students. We have to study from morning till night to meet our parents’ expectations. It is under such high pressure that we are burdened with a heavy workload. As we know, the load is becoming heavier and heavier. Sc: The government has been trying to reduce the workload of the students, but it really disappoints us. I think the government should focus on raising the students’ academic standards instead of putting a workload on our shoulders. Besides, the teachers should be strict with us students, but they should not forbid us to do some activities just because they didn’t do them when they were young. T: Excellent ideas. I will take your advice as a teacher. Thank you. Sd: We would like to talk about the second topic. Personally, I think lifelong learning is a good idea. I’m sure I will keep on learning all through my career or, I may say, throughout my whole life. Because it is really necessary for us to learn non-stop if we want to enjoy a happy and full life. As I grow old, perhaps I will become more interested in learning something practical. Se: I think lifelong learning is important for those who are healthy enough, but not necessary for every old person. If an old person is not strong enough, or doesn’t have a clear mind, why should he or she learn new techniques? Sf: Lifelong learning will become more and more necessary as the whole society ages. I think we should make the youth — the old in the future, aware of the worrying prospect and be ready to face it. No matter what is necessary for the society, people should learn it. Just do it, for you, for me, for the whole world. T: Excellent ideas. Thank you all. And I’m sure our country will have a brighter and more prosperous future. Thank you again.

    I will never forget what my old headmaster has taught me. 　31 when you are only 15 years of age, you do not remember most of the things that are taught by your teachers. However, this 　32 story is one such lesson that I will never forget. Every time I drift off course, I get 　33 of this story.

    It was a normal Monday morning he was 　34 the students on important things in life and about 　35 ourselves to what is important to us. This is how the story 　36 .

    An old man lived in a certain part of London, and he would 　37 every morning and get the train right to Central London, then 　38 at the street corner and beg. He would do this every 　39　 day of his life. He sat at the same street corner and had begged for almost 20years.

    His house was 　40　 and unpleasant smell came out of the house. The neighbors could not 　41 the smell anymore, so they called the police officers to 　42　 this place. The officers knocked down the door and cleaned the house. There were small bags of 　43 all over the house that the old man had collected over the years.

    The police counted the money, and they soon realized that the old man was a 　44　 . They waited outside his house, expecting to 　45 the good news with him. When he arrived home , he was met by one of the officers who told him that there was no 　46　 for him to beg any more. He said nothing 　47 , but went into his house and locked the door. The next morning he begged as usual.

    Obviously, this old man had no great plans, dreams or anything significant for his life. We learn nothing from this story 　48　 staying focused on the things we enjoy doing.

    We should remain true to our course, which may mean committing ourselves to things that people around us would normally 　49 ,let nothing else determine our fate, but ourselves.

    What makes us happy is what 　50 in the end, not what we get.
