along the Mekong 2 Wang Kung and Wang Wei have had the dream to cycle along the Mekong since middle school 3 They decided to begin their trip from the source of the Mekong 4 Wang Wei didn t think much about the difficulty of the trip 5 The Mekong flows through five countries S1 S2 S3 S4 S5 T Statement 1 is false Not Wang Kung but Wang Wei first had the idea Statement 2 is false They have had their

two parts Part 1 talks about their dream while Part 2 talks about their plan T You are clever Part 1 is Paragraph One Part 2 consists of Paragraph 2 and Paragraph 3 Now please read the second part aloud Pay attention to their plan Now please discuss with your partners about the answers to the questions 1 Who are Dao Wei and Yu Hang 2 Where is the source of the Mekong River 3 Which sea does the Mekong enter 4 Is it a difficult journey along the Mekong River Why 5 Is Wang Kung very eager for the trip S1 Dao Wei and Yu Hang are their cousins S2 The source of the Mekong River is in Qinghai Province S3 The Mekong enters the South China Sea S4 Yes Because the Mekong begins at a glacier on a Tibetan mountain then it becomes rapids when it passes through deep valleys sometimes enters wide valleys and becomes a waterfall T Yes in short we may say the trip is difficult because the topography along the river is very complicated S5 T Still look at the second paragraph I know the proper way is always her way That means Wang Kung doesn t completely agree with his sister and is not very pleased with her meanwhile from the sentence I told her the air would be hard to breathe and it would be very cold we can see that Wang Kung is afraid of the difficulty that might meet with so he is very eager for the trip Step 7 Homework Finish Part 1 and Part 3 on Page 20 板书设计 Unit 3 Travel journal The
