Go over the key word or phrases by computer.
Open your books and turn to Page 53.Look at Word Study. Part 1: Fill in the blanks with the right words.

Step Ⅲ Grammar Study
T: Now I want you to translate two sentences into English. Look at the screen.
(Show the following on the screen.)
1.请把盐递给我。
2.请给我们演奏一些民间乐曲。
(Write the two sentences on the blackboard.)
Look at the blackboard, the verbs“play”and“pass”are followed by two objects. In English, there are some verbs that can be followed by two objects. Who can tell us what they are?
S4: I’ll try. They are send, buy, get…
T: Right. You’ve known some of the verbs. Now I’ll give you a summary. Please look at the screen.
(Show the following on the screen.)
Common verbs that take indirect objects:
①give,show,send,bring,offer,read,pass,lend,leave,hand,tell,return,write,pay,throw,wish,teach,promise,owe,refuse ect.
E.g. I’ll lend you something to read.

E.g. I hope you’ll do me a favor.
Let’s get the children something to drink.
T: Now please notice there are two groups in the diagram. In Group 1,most of the indirect objects are transformed into “to-phrase”.And in Group 2,most of the indirect objects are transformed into “for-phrase”.
(Write the following on the blackboard.)
Compare:
Is that clear?
Ss: Yes.
T: But not all the indirect objects can be replaced like this.
e.g. “Do me a favour”.We can’t transform it into: “Do a favour for me.”
OK. Now let’s do some exercises. Open your books and turn to Page 54.Look at Grammar-Direct and Indirect Objects. Look at Part 1.Tick the right answer. First do it by yourselves. Then discuss it in pairs. Finally I’ll show you the answers.
(After students finish it, teacher shows the following on the screen.)
Suggested answers:

2.√Do me a favor. Please lend me one Yuan.
3.√Please take these exercise-books to my office.
4.√Give me the check, please.
√Please give the check to me.
T: in fact, we should pay attention to some special cases. Especially when the direct object is shorter than the indirect object, or when we emphasize the indirect object, we often use such patterns,“Subject+Predicate+Direct Object+to/for+Indirect Object”.
E.g. I took it to the policeman on duty.
Mother bought the ice-cream for you, not for me.
(Write them on the blackboard.)
And there are two special cases you should notice.
Please look at the screen.
(Show the following on the screen.)
1.We must use prepositions before the indirect object following the two verbs “explain and suggest”.
E.g. Could you explain your point of view to us?
I suggest a way out to her.
2. Some verbs are followed by either direct object or indirect object, or both of them.
E.g. I asked John.
I asked a question.
I asked John a question.
The similar verbs are: teach, tell, owe, pay, and show
As to this, you should remember them. Is that clear?
Ss: Yes.
T: OK. Let’s deal with Part 2.

Today we’re going to read a material“The special Olympics”.Please turn to Page 55.Read the text fast and try to get the general idea.

Step Ⅵ Writing
T: Now you’ve known something about disabilities. I think many students will show their love to the disabled from now on. What should we do to help them in our daily life?
T: OK. It’s very kind of you! After class, please conduct a survey of the public places where you live in. Start with your school: how easy or difficult is it for a disabled person to get around? Visit other public buildings and find out if they are accessible or not. Work in pairs or groups and make a checklist for your survey. Use the results to write an essay. Describe the current situation and suggest ways to improve the situation.
Suggested writing:
After several days’ survey, I found that the government paid a little attention to the disabled and spend much money on new buildings. There is no special road for the blind. The buildings have many steps, and it’s difficult for the disabled to get into them.
A new government programmed has been designed to help disabled people. More special schools will be built. Not only will help be given to people to find jobs, but also medical treatment will be provided for people who need it. But the truth is that everyone should take care of disabled people, not just the government. If everyone shows love to them, their life will be much better.
Step Ⅷ Summary and Homework
T: In this class, we’ve reviewed the useful expressions and learned the text“The Special Olympics”.We practice how to write the article on disabilities. After class, go over all the important points learnt in this unit, and write an essay. Prepare for next unit. Class is over.
