Step 1 Revision

1 Check the hom ework exercises.

2 Get Ss to have a dialogue like the one in Part 2 of Lesson 52, in pairs, with their books shut.

Step 2 Presentation

SB Page. 7, Part 1. Write the word slavery on the Bb and ask the Ss how much they know about this topic. Make sure that Ss understand that slaves were caught in Africa and were taken to America where they were sold, as this is the key to the story. Put any useful notes and key words that arise out of this discussion on the Bb. Get Ss to talk about the picture and describe what they can see.

Step 3 Reading for general understanding

Say to the Ss You are going to read a story about a man who lived in the eighteenth century. His name was Kunta. Read aloud the task and the two questions. Allow the Ss enough time to read the text and write down the answers. Put them in pairs to discuss their answers, then collect the answers from the class. (1 He was caught in a forest in Africa, put in chains and sent by ship to .America. 2 About a third of the black people on the ship died during the journey.)

Step 4 Reading

Wb Lesson 53, Ex. 1. Go through the exercise and make sure the Ss know what to do. Let them read the whole passage carefully and answer the questions, working in pairs or small groups. Check the answers with the whole class. This is a good time to deal with any language problems. See if the Ss can guess the meaning of softly, hopeless.

Step 5 Comprehension

Explain that Ss have to read the text again and put the events into the correct order. Make the Ss do this task individually, then check their answers in pairs. Answers：

1 Long ago, people in Africa said it was dangerous to walk alone in the forest near the coast.

2 Kunta was caught in the forest one day.

3 He was hit on the head.

4 He was tied up and carried to a small boat.

5 He was then chained up in a castle.

6 He heard some women and children crying.

7 A few days later he was put on a sailing ship.

8 He was chained up in the ship.

9 The ship sailed for two months.

10 The ship arrived in a port.

11 About a third of the black people had lost their lives.

Step 6 Discussion

SB Page 8, Part 3. The purpose of this task is to get Ss to think about and interpret what they have just read. Get the Ss to discuss these questions in pairs or groups of four. Ask for some answers from the class at the end. Possible answers：

1 Where he was being taken, why he was being taken, what was going to happen to him, etc.

2 No, because of the phrase “Another, whoselanguage Kunta understood”. (There are hundreds of different African languages.)

3 He was caught and carried away by black men whom he expected would usually help him.

4 To catch black men.

5 If women were caught and became slaves as well as men, they would produce babies (young slaves).

6 So that they could not try to jump off the ship.

7 Terrible ---- no light; food and water once a day only; nothing to lie on except hard boards; diseases and death.

8 To carry upstairs the bodies of people who had died and to throw them into the sea over the side of the ship.

9 Kunta thought that the sailors came down to carry sick men upstairs for treatment.

10 About 94. A third of the original 140 black people had died. In fact the exact number of black people who arrived in America on this ship alive was 98.

Step 7 Reading aloud

Speech Cassette Lesson 53. Play the tape of the passage for the Ss to listen and follow. Play the tape of part of the passage once more; this time the Ss listen and repeat. Pay attention to stress and intonation, and the sentence stress of longer sentences.

Step 8 Workbook

Wb Lesson 53, Exx. 2 - 3.

Both the exercises are based on the reading passage. Divide the class into groups of four and ask the Ss to discuss in groups. Then collect answers from the groups.

Step 9 Consolidation

Step 1 Revision

2 Get Ss to tell each other the story of Kunta in pairs. One S starts the story, then the partner continues, and so on.

Step 2 Presentation

SB Lesson 54, Part 1,. Get Ss to talk about the pictures and describe what they can see. Teach the new word ancestor and the phrase in his youth (=when he was a young man).

Step 3 Reading for general understanding

Read aloud the task and the two questions. Allow the Ss enough time to read the text and discuss their answers in pairs, then collect the answers from the class. (1 Gambia. 2 Information about his ancestors.)

Step 4 Reading

Wb Lesson 54, Ex. 1. Go through the exercise and make sure the Ss know what to do. Let them read the whole passage carefully and answer thequestions, working in pairs or small groups. Check the answers with the whole class. This is a good time to deal with any language problems.

Step 5 Comprehension

Step 6 Reading aloud

Speech Cassette Lesson 54. Play the tape of the passage for the Ss to listen and follow. Play the tape of part of the passage once more; this time the Ss listen and repeat. Pay attention to stress and intonation, and the sentence stress of longer sentences.

Step 7 Story telling

SB Page 10, Part 2. Allow the Ss some time tolook at the pictures and construct the story in their own words. With a weak class, the following cue words may be given on the Bb.

1 Kunta Kinte / born in Gambia / a free and strong man / fond of music;

2 one day / Kunta / cut a tree in a forest near the coast / make a drum / hit on the head;

3 Kunta Kinte / wake up / caught by some black men / reason with them / sent to a castle on the coast;

6 at a market / Kunta and some other Africans /sold to farmers / work in the fields / badly treated / try to run away / cut off part of his foot.

Get the Ss to tell the story in groups first. Then call out some of them to describe the pictures in class. Either the present tense or the past tense, can be used when telling the story, but it should be consistent.

Step 8 Interview

SB Page 10, Part 3. Get Ss to prepare their questions in pairs, then check these with the whole class. If necessary, using the following as hints：

How / first / learn / about your African ancestor?

Where / ancestor / come from?

What / you do / to find out more?

Why / you go / to Gambia?

How / get enough money / go to Gambia?

What / you discover / when / get to Gambia?

How / find out / about Kunta's disappearance?

Then get Ss to work in pairs and do the role play.

Get them to change roles and do it again. If you wish, you can get one or two pairs to act out the interview in front of the class.

Step 9 Workbook

StepIV.Reading comprehension:

France, England and Spain were the three European powers in the New World. Each had come for different purposes.

The first Spanish came to the New World searching for wealth, power, and glory. In their search they explored(探验) and conquered much of North, South, and Central America. The English, on the other hand, generally came to build new lives in the new land. They built settlements(殖民地) along the coast.

Different from both Spain and English, the French were less interested in conquest(征服) than in trade. Their first settlements were trading posts(贸易区) where they sold cloth, knives, and guns to the Indians for the skin of the beaver (河狸). Like the Spanish, they seldom brought their families. Unlike the English, they didn’t fight against the Indians for the possession of the land.

Because there were far fewer French than English in America, they did not Threatened(威胁) the Indian way of life as the English did.
