Unit 5 the value ofmoney-Reading For Writing教學設計

This theme of this period is to write a dramatic scene. It is difficult to write aplay, even a small part of it sounds difficult. Writing a play or drama is quite differentfrom writing a story. The main purposeof a play is to let the characters speak for themselves as much as possible. How actors show us what the characters thinkand feel is also important.

課件教案

Dramatic language includes actors or actress lines andstage direction, which is written at the beginning of each scene and at the endand in the middle of the dialogue. Itcan enhance the stage atmosphere, enhance the mood of the characters, show thecharacters characters, and promote the development of the plot.

1. Get students to have a good understanding ofsome features about a dramatic scene.

2. Study the organization and language features.

3. Develop students’ writing and cooperatingabilities.

4. Strengthen students’ great interest in writingdrama.

1. Stimulate students to have a goodunderstanding of how to write a drama.

2. Cultivate students to write a drama properlyand concisely.

Step 1: Read andanswer the following questions.

? 1. Where does Henry go? What does he want?

? 2. What do the clerks show Henry at first? Why?

? 3 . What makesthe people in the store change their attitudes towards Henry?

? 4 . Why wouldthe owner be willing to wait for a long time to get paid?

? 5. Is it right to judge people by their clothes?Why or why not?

1. He goes to a tailors shop. He wants new clothes.

2 They show him ready made clothes, because he looks poor and these clothesare cheaper.

3 They change their attitudes after seeing the million-pound note becausethey think that he is rich.

4 Perhaps he thinks that Henry will come back and buy a lot more clothes inthe future or tell his wealthy friends about the shop.

5 No, its not right, for two reasons. First, everyone has dignity and should betreated with the same respect. Second,you cannot judge someone before you know all the facts about this person. Dressing well or having a lot of money doesntmean someone is a nice person. Sometimesappearances are deceptive.

Step 2: study thelanguage features

Underline thesentences that show how people’s attitudes change towards Henry.

? (in a rude manner)See him there. (pointing to another clerk)

? 2nd Clerk：Ready－made suits？Downstairs.

? Henry：(after going down some stairs)Can you show me a suit，please?

? 3rd Clerk：Yes ，I can ，sir. This way，please. Ah，here we are，the very thing you need.

? 1st Clerk：(pulling the 3rd clerk aside and whispering)Mr Reid says you’d better serve him quick and get him out quick!

? 3rd Clerk：I know what I’m doing. I’ve got eyes，haven’t I?

? Henry：It’s a little too bright，isn’t it?

? 3rd Clerk：(looking at him with a frown)It’s all we have in your size.

? 3rd Clerk：(trying not to show he’s angry) I suppose a gentleman like you only carries very large bills.

? . (to Todd)Go get the others，Todd！(to Henry again)Allow me，sir！This way，sir.

Never mind. (with a broad smile) Oh，it’s perfect！It was made for some king but he’ll just have to wait. You’ll need many suits for many occasions. Yes，indeed you will.

? 3rd Clerk：Yes，we can wait forever!

? Henry：Well，all right. I’ll take the suit coat for now and get the others later.

? Owner：Fine，fine. Your address，sir?

? Henry：I don’t have one. Er. . . I’m moving.

? Owner：Of course you are！That’s very normal！A busy man，I’m sure. ,
