整体设计
教材分析
This is the first teaching period of this unit. At the beginning of the class, the teacher can lead in the topic of the unit by showing students some pictures about foods and talking about them.
Warming Up is to tell students how different kinds of food are grouped. This is important as it enables us to talk about the value of particular foods to our health. We want students to appreciate what a balanced diet is. Too much fatty food will mean they store extra energy in their bodies. Too much body-building food may cause problems for digestion and lead to illness unless enough fibre foods are eaten to aid digestion. The teacher can have a free talk with students, let them work in pairs to read through the chart and discuss the questions.
Pre-reading contains two more general questions about food for discussion. Students can be encouraged to discuss these questions in pairs. Then they are asked to look at the title of the reading passage and the pictures to predict what the passage is about. This part is very useful for the next part Reading.
The reading passage Come and Eat Here(1)introduces students to two unbalanced diets through the restaurants of Wang Peng and Yong Hui. Food at Wang Peng’s restaurant contains too much fat while Yong Hui’s restaurant offers little energy-giving food. The person who often eats at Wang Peng’s restaurant will become too fat. That can lead to illnesses such as a heart attack or high blood pressure. The person who often eats at Yong Hui’s restaurant will become too thin and suffer illnesses such as anorexia or malnutrition. It is important for students to know about the two extremes and avoid them. The teacher can encourage students to skim for the general idea and scan for further understanding. Because this passage introduces a lot of new words, which are only used for food, in order not to let students feel much difficult, the teacher should deal with any language problems while they are reading. After reading, students are required to do the exercises in Comprehending to see how much they have understood the reading passage. The teacher can let them work in pairs or in groups to find the answers cooperatively, and then check
their answers with the whole class.
To consolidate the contents of the reading passage, students should be required to read the passage again and then retell it. In order to arouse their interest, the teacher can hold a competition. The teacher also needs to make a summary on the passage including the general idea, writing characteristics, and so on to let students understand the passage further at the end of the class.

整体设计
教材分析
This is the third teaching period of this unit. To test whether students have grasped the important and difficult language points they learned in the last period, the teacher should first offer them some revision exercises. Then lead in the new lesson.
This teaching period mainly deals with the grammar: learn the use of ought to and review the use of can, could, may, might, will, would, shall, should, must, can’t. Students often feel modal verbs abstract and difficult, so it is necessary to make the lesson interesting and connect it with their daily life in order to let it easy to accept and understand. Firstly, the teacher can ask students to read the reading passage Come and Eat Here(1)again, tick out the sentences using modal verbs from the reading passage and translate them into Chinese. Secondly, compare and discover the uses of each modal verb by giving a lot of example sentences. Thirdly, do the exercises in Discovering useful structures on Page 13 and more exercises for students to master the related modal verbs. Finally, summarize the use of ought to and let students make it clear how each modal verb is being used in the situations.
At the end of the class, ask students to do the exercises in Using structures on Page 54 and additional exercises for consolidation.

Period 4 Using language: Listening and speaking
整体设计
教材分析
This is the fourth teaching period of this unit. As usual, the teacher will first get students to review what they learned in the last period, and then lead in the new lesson.
We will mainly deal with listening and speaking in this period. At the beginning, students listen to a dialogue between Wang Peng and an expert. Make sure students go through the exercises before they listen to the tape. This is to sharpen their attention and listen for the answers. This will also help them get the gist of the listening text. The teaching procedures may be as follows: First, let students go through the exercises and guess the listening text may be about. Play the tape for students to listen to and decide whether their guessing is right. Second, ask them to listen again for them to do Exercise 3. Third, let them listen a third time to check their answers. While they are listening, the teacher should pause and repeat the key sentences to help students understand. After listening, let them work in pairs and finish Exercise 4. When checking the answers, explain some difficult listening points if necessary. In the end, show them the listening text and let them read and retell it. This step can help students understand and grasp the listening material far further. Perhaps some students will find it hard to listen to and understand listening materials. Encourage them not to give up. The more they listen to English, the easier it becomes.
As we know, young people can show that they are not eating a balanced diet in a number of ways—by being too thin, too fat or sick. So the exercise Talking is to encourage students to discuss how their diets may affect their quality of life. It gives them the opportunity to practice a dialogue using the functional items for seeing the doctor, suggestions and advice. So they should learn some expressions of seeing the doctor, suggestions and advice first. Then they are required to create such a dialogue. During the course, encourage them to use vocabulary from the reading and listening passages.
This period places emphasis on developing students’ listening and speaking ability. We should try our best to encourage students to say something. Don’t always correct the mistakes they have made while they are speaking. Otherwise, they would feel reluctant and not say anything more.

活动与探究 Discussion
Read the following reports and then in small groups discuss what you think of after reading the reports.
The latest data from an ongoing government-sponsored survey of the health and nutrition of the U. S. population indicated that nearly 65% of American adults were overweight and more than 30% were obese. The most disquieting finding was that more than 80% of all black women over the age of 40 were overweight and half were obese. In a separate report focusing on children and adolescents, 15% of those aged 16-19 were overweight.
CDC researchers published the disturbing results of a 20-year study that analyzed hospital-discharge records of children. They found that overweight children were increasingly being diagnosed with illnesses formerly seen mainly in overweight or obese adults. These included type Ⅱ(non-insulin-dependent)diabetes, gallbladder disease, and sleep apnea. Although
the overall numbers of children with these serious conditions remained relatively low, the increases over the period 1979-1999 were striking. For example, the diagnosis of gallbladder disease in 6-17-year-olds rose 228%.
A report on obesity among children worldwide by the London-based International Obesity Task Force was presented in May at the annual meeting of the World Health Assembly, whose decision-making body. The task force estimated that 22 million children under age 5 were overweight or obese. Among 10-year-olds, the U. S. had the third highest prevalence of overweight children, after Malta and Italy. Much to the surprise of many health professionals, obesity was found to be a growing problem in less-developed countries. In Morocco and Zambia, for example, more children were overweight than malnourished. In Egypt, Chile, Mexico, and Peru, as many as 25% of children aged 4-10 were overweight or obese.

教材分析
This is the fifth teaching period of this unit. As usual, the teacher should check students’ homework and offer chances for them to go over what they learned in the last period at the beginning of the class. Then lead in the new lesson.
In this period, the teaching emphasis will be put on developing students’ reading ability by reading extensively. We will deal with two parts: Come and Eat Here(2)in Using language on Pages 14-15 and Reading Task on Page 52. While reading, get students learning to use some reading strategies such as skimming, scanning. As to new words and phrases, the teacher can first find those students feel most difficult and help them to understand. That’s enough here. The purpose of this reading Come and Eat Here(2)is to complete the story of Wang Peng and Yong Hui and to show students that it is never too late to change bad eating habits and begin afresh. The teacher can first ask some students to retell the passage Come and Eat Here(1)to lead in the topic and then ask students to read the passage Come and Eat Here(2)and do some comprehending exercises. While checking their answers with the whole class, deal with language problems students can’t work out by themselves. This is an extensive reading lesson, so the teaching steps should be simple. As to the part Reading Task, the two passages provide the information on which each student can decide his/her point of view. Two opposite opinions are examined with ideas for and against the building of the restaurant. Ask students to read through the passages and learn more about the opinions and the reasons given by both sides.
At the end of the class, ask students to retell the whole story of Wang Peng and Yong Hui, discuss the two opposite opinions and give their own ones. In order to arouse students’ interest, the teacher can hold a competition among them.

An idea for a new library
My idea is to build a new library for our community. It will need one large room for the books and one for the employees to rest, have tea and eat their lunch in. It could be a place where people sit and relax and read some of the books if they want to.
This is how I think the library should be designed to let people see the largest number of books. There should be shelves all round the room for people to keep books and some free-standing shelves in the middle of the room to hold even more. These shelves should be divided into sections so that each book shelf holds a certain kind of book. For example, all history books should be organized by date so that people can easily find books they want.
My idea will help improve the education of students in our community. It will also give the adults an interest and keep their minds active.

Period 7 Revision: Summing up and learning tip
整体设计
教材分析
This is the last teaching period of this unit, so the emphasis should be placed on going over and summarizing what has been learned in this unit. It includes the following parts: Summing Up, Learning Tip, assessment and consolidation exercises.
Summing Up summarizes the whole contents of this unit from the aspects of topics, vocabulary and grammar. The teacher can first use this part to let students sum up what they have learned and then explain what students couldn’t understand very well in this unit. An experienced teacher should design some additional exercises for students to do in order that they can learn to use and grasp all the contents.
Learning Tip encourages students to look at the side of the packet or tin when they buy food in packet or tin. This will help them not only know how much sugar, fat, vitamin, protein, and fiber there is in their food but also learn more words and expressions connected with food. They can use this information to help them have a healthy diet as well as increase their vocabulary. So make sure that students have a try.
In this period, the teacher can also provide more practices to consolidate what students have learned in this unit.
Finally, ask students to finish Checking yourself on Page 54 in the Workbook. This part aims at encouraging students to make a self-assessment after they finish learning this unit. It is very important to improve their learning. Of course, a testing assessment is also needed.

3. Let the group test it and adjust the flavor or taste.
4. Prepare to test it on the class. Ask for comments to improve it. 5. Finally make the poster for others to make it. Sample poster:

You need:
1 banana, 1/2 small watermelon, grapes, 1 apple, 1/2 kg strawberries, melon, ice
