How do you know about Chinatown? Can you give me some advice and information to help me know more about Chinatown?Ss: Firstly, it is the place where the Chinese immigrants live. Secondly, you canexplore the interesting sights,experience traditional Chinese culture, go shopping, eat Chinese food, and so on.Step ⅠWhile readingCultural NoteThe Dragon Gate is the most photographed site in San Francisco’s Chinatown.The gate was designed by three Chinese-American architects in 1967 using traditional Chinese village gates for inspiration.The Tin How Temple is the oldest Taoist temple in Chinatown,and one of the oldest Chinese temples in the United States.The temple was built in 1852,but then destroyed by the 1906 earthquake.The image of the goddess Mazu was preserved,as well as part of the altar and the bell.These were relocated to the top floor of a building constructed on the site of the old temple.The Bank of Canton is actually the old Chinese Telephone Exchange,a traditional Chinese-style building constructed in 1894.When the telephone was first introduced,there was no way to dial a number.Instead,you would have to talk to a switchboard operator (nearly always a woman),tell her the telephone number of the person you wanted to talk to,and she would manually connect you to the person you wanted to call using an electric plug.However,Chinese residents thought it was impolite to use a number to refer to a person,so the switchboard operators in Chinatown had to know all the names and addresses of everyone in Chinatown so they would know who to connect people to.They also had to know five dialects of Chinese and speak English.Like many buildings in Chinatown,the Chinese Telephone Exchange was destroyed by the 1906 earthquake,but it was quickly rebuilt.However,in 1949 it was closed when dial telephones made switchboards unnecessary.Portsmouth Square,now a public park,is the site of San Francisco’s first public square,built in the early 19th century.While many important historical events related to California and San Francisco occurred in the square before Chinatown was established or grew in size,the site is now very much considered an integral part of Chinatown.The Scottish novelist Robert Louis Stevenson (1850—1894) lived in San Francisco briefly between 1879—1880,and spent much time in Portsmouth Square during his stay there.There is a monument in his honour in the park.Activity 1Prediction1.Look at the title and picture and predict what kind of article is this?2.Who are the target readers?3.What is the writer’s purpose of writing this text?Suggested answers:1.This is an introduction to Chinatown in San Francisco.2.Visitors.3.To introduce a diverse cultural Chinatown in San Francisco to visitors.Activity 2 Reading for main ideaRead the text quickly and match the main idea of the passage.Para.1 A.The characteristic of Chinatown.Para.2 B.The history of Chinatown.Para.3 C.The introduction of Chinatown’s shops and products.Para.4 D.The origin of Chinatown.Para.5 E.The existence value of Chinatown.Para.6 F.The famous food and drinks of Chinatown.Suggested answers:Para.1:A Para.2:D Para.3:B Para.4:C Para.5:F Para.6:EActivity 3 Reading for detailsRead the passage again and answer the questions.1.What are the famous tourist sites in the Chinatown of San Francisco?2.Which is the best season to visit the Chinatown in San Francisco?3.What else can you do there?Suggested answers:1.Dragon Gate,Tin How Temple,Bank of Canton,and Portsmouth Square.2.All year round.3.We can explore the interesting sights,experience traditional Chinese culture,goshopping,eat Chinese food,and so on.Activity 4Reading for organisation and language featuresRead the text again and study the organisation and language feature.1.What information is included in the introduction?

cultural identity1.In groups,brainstorm as much information as possible about your city/town and its culture.Then write an outline of your introduction.①What is unique about your city/town?②Is it a city/town with diverse cultures?③What examples can you give to illustrate its feature?2.Write an introduction to your city/town.The following phrases and expressions may help you.·is located in/on·has

answers:1.①My city is distinctive cultural identity.②Yes,it is a city/town with diverse cultures.③I will give examples such as history,population...to illustrate its features.2.Lijiang is an ancient city high up in the mountains of Yunnan,near the borders of Sichuan and Tibet.It was an important stop on the Ancient Tea and Horse Road,which connected central China with Myanmar and India,transporting not just tea but also silk and other goods.Lijiang’s Old Town,with a history of over 800 years,is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.Today,Lijiang is mostly known for its ethnic minority culture,especially the culture of the Naxi ethnic group.The Naxi are famous for their Dongba culture.They have their own unique written language that uses pictures and symbols.They also create beautiful arts and crafts,and are well known for their singing and dancing.Strolling around the Old Town,one can witness Naxi life much as it was hundreds of years ago.One can also try traditional Naxi food,including the air-dried pork liver,Naxi baba (a kind of flat bread),and Naxi hot pot.But if you really want to see Naxi traditional culture,it is best to visit during the Torch Festival,which usually occurs in the summer.During the festival,the streets are full of torches,bonfires,and lots of people singing and dancing.While the main ethnic group living in the area is the Naxi,there are also at least 19 other ethnic groups,including Yi,Lisu,Bai,Tibetan,and Pumi.It is easy to arrange a short homestay with an ethnic minority family to learn more about their way of life.Just outside the city,there are beautiful mountains,meadows,lakes,rivers,and gorges,offering plenty of opportunities to go hiking,kayaking,or rafting.Like much of Yunnan,the weather is always fairly mild in Lijiang,so it is fine to visit throughout the year.Lijiang can be easily reached by airplane or train,and visitors can hire bikes or cars to explore the area.It is the perfect place for tourists to experience the colourful culture of China’s ethnic minorities.StepⅠEvaluating and polishing the draft1.Exchange drafts with a e the checklist to give feedback on your partner’s draft.2.Get
