Lead-in Activity Warm-up Listening Task Real World Listening Interaction Link Useful Expressions Additional Listening Homework Conversation
Lead-in Activity Role play: A sophomore came across a freshman on campus. They are old
friends. How will they make a conversation?

B: Not bad, glad to see you, the old guy from the hometown.
A: How about your new college life?
B: Ah, it’s going fine, mm, except that I have to share the dorm
with seven boys. There is no privacy for me.
A: Ha, I also felt bad at the first days, but later I try to enjoy the dorm
life, thus I learn a lot from the guys and have a lot of fun.
B: Eh, thanks, your experience works on me.
A: Well, got to go. By the way, there is a party to welcome new
hometown fellows on Saturday evening, will you come?
B: Sure. See you.

Lead-in Activity
Do you know some expressions about greetings?
Very glad to meet you. Nice to meet you./Nice to see you. Nice meeting you. Hey! What’s up? What’s new? How are you doing? How’s it going? Long time no see.
Part IWarm-up
Language Points
I haven’ t seen you in ages.
It’s really a long time.
It’s really been long.
Long time no see.
Language Points
We may confuse “Nice to meet you” with “Nice meeting you” and “Nice to see you.” “Nice to meet you” is used with introductions, while “Nice to see you” is used to greet someone the speaker knows. “Nice meeting you” is often used before saying good-bye to the new acquaintance.
Warm Up
Look at the pictures. Write the missing words.
How Longwhat’s
Look at the pictures. Write the missing words.
I’m How’s nice
Pair Work
Greet your classmates. Use different greetings.
Part IIListening Task
Language Points
Differentiate Yes Yep Yeah Yes is used in formal, serious or excitable situations.
Both yep and yeah are informal for yes, but yep may have a more positive tone.
For instance:A: Did you pass your English exam?B: Yep.
You could answer this question with yes or yeah, but yep makes it clear that not only did you pass but you’re happy about it ... or quite satisfied with the result.

Differentiate between casual and formal greetings
In Conversation 4 “Good morning” is shortened into “Morning.”
In Conversation 6, the two persons make a casual conversation although it is in a business context:
“Hi, I’m Rob Martin from ....” A more formal conversation would be “Good morning, my name is Rob Martin.”
“What’s up” and “How’s it going?” are casual. “Good morning” is used by all age groups in most situations.

Culture Note : Shopping Period in the U.S. Universities
College students in the U.S. have to make some preparations before they go back to classes after summer/winter break. What is interesting is that college students always pre-register for their classes during the previous term. In the U.S., there is a lot of freedom for college students in what classes they like to take. What they need to do is go around to different classes to see if they like the teacher and the subject, what the classes are like, and then they decide if they want to take it or not. This period is called shopping period.

Script
Very few people can get college degree before 11, but Michael was an exception. He started high school when he was 5, finishing in just nine months. He became the world’s youngest college graduate when he was 10 years and 4 months old, earning an architecture degree. Now at 11 Michael’s working on a master’s degree in artificial intelligence. But Michael’s success hasn’t always come easy. Despite his intelligence, he still lacks important life experiences. In one class, He had to struggle to understand romantic novels, because, he says, “I’m 11. I’ve never been in love before. ”Another challenge was his size. High school physical education was difficult, because all of the equipment was too big for the then five-year-old student. He likes computers so much that in graduate school he’s studying how to make them think like people. He wants to make robots do all the heavy tasks. Michael is smart, but he is like every other kid.
