Ss: ...
T: But can you use them out in your writing? Let’s have a try.Here we’ve got some, and please choose some of them to translate my sentences. ( Page 71)
(as a matter of fact; in trouble; out of work; come to power; advise; lose heart; be sentenced to; willing; set up; continue).
T: Please always remember: words and phrases are the bricks of the house or the muscles and blood of the body. So collecting more words is a way to write a beautiful passage. Besides the muscles and blood, but what about the bones of the article?
Step3. Make an outline for structure
T: Let’s go back to the passage. Can you give me more information about the mathematician? Like when and where was he born? What happened in his childhood? And what happened later? …
Ss: …
T: Yes, in paragraph one, it writes about his personal information. And what happened in paragraph two? What other information does it mention?
Ss: …
T: In paragraph two, it tells us his hard work and achievements. Why do we say he worked hard? What were his achievements? Did he suffer a lot or meet with some problems? What do people think of him? Why?
Ss: …
T: So in conclusion, this passage can be divided into two parts. They are:
Paragraph 1: Personal information
Paragraph 2: His / Her hard work and achievements
T: That’s the brief outline of this passage, and can we add something more about it?
S: (Get into a discussion and report their ideas)
T: Generally speaking, when we write a passage about a person, maybe we’d better write about his qualities in the passage and we can also show our opinion of the hero. So can you write an outline of a passage about a great person?
(Leave several minutes to the Ss to make an outline, and let them exchange their ideas freely)
T: According to your arrangement, your outline may be like this:
Paragraph 1: Personal information
Paragraph 2: His / Her hard work and achievements
Paragraph 3: His / Her good qualities
Paragraph 4: Your opinion
T: Here you have a chance to practice how to write a passage about a person. Would you write a passage about Nelson Mandela according to what we have discussed?
(Leave 5minutes for Ss to draw an outline and collect more information in the whole unit)
Step4. Writing
T: Have you finished? Suppose the magazine “Global People” begins its annual activity of choosing the top ten great men in 20th century. Will you write a letter to support Nelson Mandela?
Before we begin, here are two questions:
1. Do you still remember the format of a letter?
2. How can you persuade people or judges to follow your advice?
(Get the Ss into discussion)
T: Here some proper tips for you:
Step1. Collect your ideas for the letters. Write them down in any order. Then sort them out into an order which seems good to you. For example: time order, we can have a reference on Page39.
Step2. Begin the letter with your address and the date.

Lyrics of Hero
There's a hero
If you look inside your heart
You don't have to be afraid
Of what you are
There's an answer
If you reach into your soul
And the sorrow that you know
Will melt away
And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you
It's a long road
When you face the world alone
No one reaches out a hand
For you to hold
You can find love
If you search within yourself
And the emptiness you felt will disappear
And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you
Lord knows...
Dreams are hard to follow
But don't let anyone
Tear them away
Hold on
There will be tomorrow
In time you'll find the away
And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you
That a hero lies in you...
That a hero lies in you...
