For the first reading, we intend to cultivate Ss’ skimming ability and scanning ability.First ask the students to scan it and tick out what are mentioned in the passage.Then let the students read fast to find out the main idea of each paragraph. For the second reading, the students are expected to know some details about the passage.Later on, the teacher will present some questions for the students to answer and at the same time they are asked to finish filling in the chart.The third time is to read for further information.

To develop Ss’ further understanding ability, the teacher can design some questions, whose answers are beyond lines.

To consolidate the content of the passage, Ss are required to retell it according to the main idea.In order to arouse the Ss’ interest; the teacher can hold a competition between groups.After the students understand the whole passage, they are asked to have a topic discussion.ª¤
