Teach the word popular. A lot of students know about the people above. They like them. Get the students to read the names correctly, especially Celine Dion.Get the students to talk about their future plans, using the following sentences.

And lead them to think about what they can do for other people and what they can do for the society. make other people happy travel around the worldbe kind/helpful/popular make money to help more peopleSTEP 2 Listening to the tapeSay Millie is now talking to Amy about her future plan. Please open your book to page 16, and look at Part A1 to listen to the tape and tick out what Millie say about her future. Play the tape for the students to listen to. It is quite possible that students cannot catch all the information. So it is very necessary for you to play the tape for a second time. Play the tape a third time and pause to check the answers. Make sure that every student find the right answer and fill in the blanks correctly. For stronger classes, I think it may also be helpful to let the students listen and repeat the dialogue. STEP 3 Read the passageGet the students to read Part A2 aloud. Ask the students to read the passage silently and find out What Millie tries to do and why Millie wants to be a social worker. What does Millie try to do? a. She tries to be kind to his classmates. b. She tries her best to help her friends. Why does Millie want to be a social worker?a. She can listen to peoples problems. b. She can help people to solve their problems. c. She will be happy if she can make people happy again. It is because of Millies personality (kind and helpful) that she wants to be a social worker. Social workers are also kind and helpful. Personally, I think this may help to develop the students ability to organize their speech and writing. STEP 4 Listening to the tapeSay Sandy wants to write about her future plans to Mr. Zhou, too. She is talking to kitty about it. Ask the students to listen to the tape and tick out Sandys future plans in Part A1. Play the tape twice, if necessary. Help Sandy to plete the letter to Mr. Zhou. STEP 5 Read the passage togetherGet the students to read the passage together. Ask the students to read the passage silently and find the answer to the question why Sandy wants to be a singer. Why does Sandy want to be a singer?a. She thinks it is great to sing for people. b. Shed like to make people happy. c. She wants to be as popular as Celine Dion. d. She wants to travel around the world. Get the students to focus on these sentence patterns, because they may be very useful when the students write their own articles. They also help to get the students to think about the reasons of their own future plans. STEP 6 Making your own future plansEncourage the students to have their own future plans. Work in groups to talk about them. Encourage the students to speak out the reasons for having such a future plan. STEP 7 Finding out the answersAsk the students, Do you know a lot about your patterns future plans? Lets talk about our best friends. First, lets listen to the sample dialogue here.
