Pre-reading activities (20mins)Step 1 Lead-in:1) Is there any love at first sight? Why? No. The reasons for absence of such love can be deduced as follows:1) Looks can be deceitful;2) It takes time for true love to grow;3) Love is an integration of two minds into one;4) Such love is like a flash in the pan; 2) Can true love grow between pen pals or net friends who have never met each other? Why? No. The causes for this can be summed up asfollows:1) True love does not grow without contact between two minds;2) True love depends on acceptance of each others demerits as well as hunger for each others merits;3) True love is based on the ups and downs of lovers in daily life; Some proverbs and sayings:1.Take away love, and our earth is a tomb.没有了爱， 地球便成了坟墓。2. Where there is great love, there are always miracles. 哪里有爱，哪里就有奇迹。3. To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world.对于世界而言，你是一个人，但对于某个人，你是他的整个世界。4.First love is only a little foolishness and a lot of curiosity.(萧伯纳名言）初恋就是一点点笨拙外加许多许多的好奇。Step 2 Pre-reading listening:First listening: Listen to a speaker talking about his love story.Second listening: Listen to the passage again and answer the following questions according to what you hear.1. What is the young soldier doing in the speakers story?2. What kind of ending do the speakers stories tend to have?3. What does love mean you?II. Text structure analysis and introduction of the writing pattern: a paragraph of a point of view supported by reasons. (25mins)Step 1: Text structure analysisThe passage is a short story, and its structural organization can be brought to light when we insert some questions between paragraphs. The story can be divided into nine parts.Part One (para.1) is the beginning of the story, telling us about a young army officer waiting to meet a woman at six oclock. We learn something strange here. He has never seen her before, but this woman has filled a special place in his life and her written words have given him strength.Part Two (para. 2-3) tells us who the woman is and how she emerges in the young mans life.Part Three (para. 4) tells us that the woman declined the mans request for her photo and her reason to do so.Part Four (para. 5-7) describes the moment of their meeting.Part Five (para. 8-9) tells us that the young woman asks him if hes going in her direction, and John thinks he finds Hollis Meynell.Part Six (para.10) is a surprise to readers. The woman who is wearing the rose is not the beautiful woman. This comes as quite a shock!Part Seven (para.11) clears readers doubts. The beautiful young girl vanishes out of sight. Blandford is then left with a serious choice. Should he give in to his desire and follow the young woman? After thought, he decides not to.Part Eight (para.12-13) Blandford successfully resists the urge to follow the younger woman and invites Meynell to dinner.Part Nine(para.14) is really an unexpected ending for readers. John Blandford introduced himself and invites the woman to dinner, but the woman s reply is very surprising. Her answer makes it clear that she is not the woman that Blandford has been waiting for. the young beauty wants to test his love and asks her to wear a rose on her coat. This is an unexpected but happy ending of the story.The beginning of the story: John Blandford, a tall young army office, standing at a station, focused his eyesight on the exact time: six minutes to six. He was waiting for a woman never seen before, who had filled a special place in his life and whose written words had given him strength.( para1) Possible questions: Who was the woman? How had she given him strength? What had happened between them?The woman was Hollis Meynell who wrote him letters wishing him safety and courage and giving him support. Before he went into battle, he read her letter to him again and again.(para2)For 13 months, she had written to him even when not getting his letters of reply. During war time, her letters gave him courage to survive. Gradually, he believed he loved her, and se loved him.(para3)Possible question: What had happened after they fell in love?John Blandford asked her for a photo, but Hollis Meynell declined his request, saying that he could make his deision when they met in NewYork.(para4)Possible question: Did they meet as planned? One minute to six, John Blandford saw a young woman coming toward him. She was beautiful, just like springtime coming alive. Instinctively he moved toward her, without noticing that she was not wearing a rose which was supposedly agreed between them before.(para5-7) Possible question: Was the young woman the very one he had been waiting for so impatiently?Suddenly the young woman addressed him:” Going my way, soldier?” Uncontrollably, he made one step closer to her. Then he saw Hollis Meynell.(para8-9) Possible question: How did the woman who addressed him look? Surpringly, she was the woman standing behind the beautiful girl, a woman well past forty, just like a fossil to his young eyes, with patches of gray hair and with her thick legs shaking. But she was the woman who wore a red rose on her coat.（para10）Possible question: What was John Blandford thinking then with the old lady before him?With the young beautiful girl vanished, he was of two minds: his strong desire to follow the young woman and his deep longing to meet the woman whose spirit had truly brought warmth to him. Now here e found the woman he expected to meet was standing before him: her face was gentle and intelligent and her gray eyes had a warm, kind look.(para11)Possible questions: What was the result? What did the man do? Blandford resisted the urge to follow the younger woman. He took out the book which was to identify him to Hollis Meynell. He believed it would be something precious, something perhaps even less common than lovea friendship for which he had been, and would always be, thankful. He held the book out toward the woman.(para12-13)Possible question: What did the old woman say? Blandford was so glad he invited the woman to dinner. The old woman told him that she didnt know what this was all about? A young beauty asked her to do so, and she was waiting for you in that big restaurant near the highway. It was some kind of a test.(para14)Step 2: Introduction of the writing pattern: a paragraph of a point of view supported by reasonsTopic: A general point of view is presented at the beginning of the paragraph. Reason 1: Next comes the first reason to explain the viewpointReason 2: The second reason is provided to explain the general point of view. Reason 3: If possible, more reasons are stated to illustrate the point.For example, in paragraph3 we have a point of view: He believes he loves her, and she loves him. However, the point of view comes at the end of the paragraph as a natural conclusion. Before the end of the paragraph, the writer tells why they have fallen in love with each other. In paragraph4, the point of view comes at the beginning: she declines his request for her photo. Then she explains the reason. Thus we have the structure of a point of view supported by reasons.
