As you know, we can surf the Internet and get useful information to help us with our English. However, we cant completely depend on the Internet. In my opinion, we should turn to our English teacher when we meet with problems. Besides, we students should work together and help each other. Sometimes we cant get the proper answer from the Internet. In that case, it would be difficult to turn to the Internet. Also, it is harmful to our sight to spend too much time looking at a computer. So I give/hold the opposite view.Step 5 Summary and HomeworkT: In this period weve learnt how to stress important information in a dialogue. Also, weve learned the usage of definite article and zero article. Now please write a paragragh giving the opposite view after class. So much for today. Goodbye, everyone.Period FiveThe General
