Id like all of you to close your books. Just look at the two pictures on the screen. Now Id like to ask you some questions. Look at Picture 1. What can you see in the picture?

If you get the answer, please hand up!(Ask some students to guess what the text may be about, any answer will be OK.)设计意图：教会学生在读前能通过图片、标题等确定阅读的目的。Step 3 Reading1. Skim reading设计意图：教会学生读文章各段第一句的重要性。Now class, open your books at Page 38 and read the first sentence of each paragraph and try to find the answers to the following questions. Its a good idea to read the first sentence of each paragraph before you read the whole text.

Now, tell me which group did a better job.S1: He was a school pupil at that time.S2: September 11, 2001.2. Fast reading设计意图：培养学生快速获取细节信息的能力。Well, boys and girls, you did a very good job.
