Unit 2 Growing painsPart One Teaching DesignAims and requirements♦ Read a play about an American family and two letters♦ Listen to a radio talk show♦ Talk about problems common to teenagers♦ Present a dialogue♦Write an advice letterprocedures●Welcome to the UnitStep 1: Brainstorming1. Do you love your parents? Do you think you show respect to your parents?2. Do you sometimes quarrel with your parents? How do arguments usually happen? Will you give examples of kinds of problems you sometimes have with your parents.Some parents may interfere in their children's lives and try to influence their decisions about their future career or study plans.Parents may want to make decisions for their children and also force them into doing things they don't want to, such as household chores or extra study.Some parents don't always trust that their child is telling the truth. They may ask lots of questions about a child's social activities or the reason why they are late coming home, etc.Some of the problems we have been discussing are quite common in families nowadays. What should you do to deal with these problems?Do you nowadays always listen to your parents' instructions? Do you always explain yourselves to your parents and resolve problems peacefully? Or do you disobey your parents and quarrel with them about your decisions?In every family there are certain issues that cause problems and arguments. What are the most common causes of family arguments? Are these daily conflicts over doing homework, doing household chores and going to bed and getting up on time? Or are they over bigger issues such as study, careers, university and making friends?Step 2: Discussing and practicing1. Look at each picture carefully. There are four pictures here. First of all, I'd like you to imagine the situation and try to describe it with your own words.(The teacher can show an example to students by describing the first picture.)Last Sunday, after leaving school, Li Ping went home feeling extremely tired. He wanted to have a good rest and relax. When his parents said hello to him, he was so impatient that he didn't say anything and went straight to his own bedroom. Though his parents were very confused, they didn't ask him why and continued with the cooking. After a while, loud music came from Li Ping's bedroom. His mother was very angry and she rushed into his room.● ReadingStep 1: Lead-inHave you ever seen the famous TV show ‘Growing Pains’? What do you think of the play? Have you ever had this kind of experience when your parents had to go away and leave you alone or with a pet? If not, can you imagine what might happen if you were left alone? Could you handle all the responsibility and keep everything clean and safe?Step 2: Fast reading for general ideas1. From Unit 1, we have learnt two of the basic reading skills, skimming and scanning.When reading different styles and formats of articles, readers usually use different waysof reading in order to know about the main ideas of the article within the shortest time.Bacon once said, some books are to be chewed; some are to be swallowed; some are to bedigested. So can you tell me how to read an English play? You may discuss this questionwithyour partners first and then I’d like some of you to tell the class your opinion.2. A play usually consists of several acts. Each act can have several scenes. So can youtell me some characteristics of a play? Is the format of a play the same as that of a newsarticle? Are the words or speeches in a play very formal? Are there any instructions ortips included in a play? What do the instructions or tips do? Do you think you have toread a play silently or out loud?Please discuss all these questions in groups of four and share your opinions with yourgroup members.3. Go through the Reading strategy of this unit, that is, how to read a play. A play hasa unique format and style. Most plays are in the form of a dialogue. A large amount ofcasual speech is used, sometimes with incomplete sentences. In order to better understanda play, you should read it out loud instead of silently and that you have to pay attentionto the instructions or tips included in a play.4. Read the play first and then finish Part A individually. Then conduct a feedbackactivity.Answers① Who are the main characters in the play? (Eric, Daniel, Mom and Dad.)② Why was Dad very angry with Daniel? (The room was a mess. / There was trash all overthe place.)③ What happened to their dog, Spot? (Spot was ill.)Step 3: Detailed reading for important information1. Read the play a second time.2. Let’s do with Parts C1 and C2 individually, and after that conduct a feedback activity.AnswersC1 1. Dad 2. Daniel 3. Dad 4. Daniel 5. Eric 6. Dad 7. MomC2 1. F 2. F 3. T 4. F 5. T3.Let’s divide into several groups and each group first read the play out loud and thenact it out.

Do you think Eric and Daniel will explain to their parents what has happened? Or willthe parents go and ask the two children what has happened?Suppose you were one of the two children. What would you do? Would you stay silent or wouldyou offer an explanation to your parents? Which is a better solution in your opinion?2. Talk about your own experiences since these kinds of family problems exist in almost every family.▲How do your parents usually deal with your wrong-doings? Are they too harsh?▲Have they ever punished or scolded you for your being late when it wasn't your fault? ▲How do you think good parents should treat their children? Should parents respect their children and value their opinions?▲What qualities or personalities do you think the ideal parents should possess?3. Focus on Part F, which is designed for you to practise your spoken English with topics closely related to your familiar family problems.▲Do you think you have a good relationship with your parents? Why do you sometimes quarrel with them?▲Do you agree there is a generation gap between you and your parents? How can you narrow the gap?▲Communication is very important in helping you and your parents become closer. Yet why do teenagers refuse to communicate with their parents sometimes?Step 5: Divide students into groups of five. One is the narrator and the others are the main characters. Role-play Act One and Act Two.1. Suppose you were one of the children what would you do?2. How do you think good parents should treat their children?3. Do you think there is a generation gap between you and your family? How can you deal with it?Step 6: Homework1. Write an end to the play.2. Role-play the dialogue in groups of five。
