Task 1 Lead-in and warming up 活动：Class survey

? never keep secret from them; ? ask them for advice;
? give me directions about life … Survey: How close are you and your parents?

活动：Reading comprehension and discuss these questions in groups 1) What does the son think of the father? (Para. 1) A tedious oddity: a father he is obliged to listen to and a man absorbed in the rules of grammar.
2) Why was the writer shocked by his student’s answer? (Paras. 2-4) She is unable to describe her excursion to Europe with the right words. 3) Why should students not be blamed for their language deficiency? (Paras. 6-7) The learning environment is misleading.
4) How should grammar be taught as far as the writer is concerned? (Paras.8-10) Grammar must be handled delicately, step by step. An effective way of teaching could arouse children’s interest in learning English grammar. An example: a grammar lesson with my son
Difficult sentences
1. If I am the only parent who still corrects his child’s English, then perhaps my son is right. To him, I am a tedious oddity: a father he is obliged to listen to and a man absorbed in the rules of grammar, which my son seems allergic to. (Para. 1)
Meaning: My son is probably right if there is no other parent like me
who still corrects his child’s mistakes in English. To my son, I am a boring and strange father, who he has to listen to; I am also the one who pays lots of attention to grammar rules, which he doesn’t seem to like. 2. The civilization of Greece and the glory of Roman architecture were captured in a condensed non-statement. (Para. 4)
Meaning: The civilization of Greece and the glory of Roman architecture were just described in one word rather than a complete statement because of her inability to choose appropriate words to express herself. 3. Perhaps, language should be looked upon as a road map and a valuable possession: often study the road map (check grammar) and tune up the car engine (adjust vocabulary). Learning grammar and a good vocabulary is just like driving with a road map in a well-conditioned car. (Para. 11)
Meaning: Maybe, you should regard language as a road map and a very precious property you have. You should often look at the road map (review grammar) and make small changes to your car engine (improve vocabulary). Task 3 Assignment：
