Step I Welcome to the Unit

T: Good morning /afternoon, everyone!

Ss: Good morning /afternoon, Sir/ Madam!

T: Well, boys and girls, believe it or not, I can't help telling you that I picked 500,000 yuan on my way home, totally 500,000 dollars, in an old bag.

Ss: (Surprised) Really? We can't believe it, you are so lucky!

T: You will tell your friends and parents about it, right?

Ss: Certainly! It is big news! It's so unbelievable!

T: But I don't hope that so many people would hear about it. Is it possible?

Ss: We guess not. The local journalists will soon hear about it in someway and they will report it on newspapers or on TV, then your picking money will be known by lots of people.

T: That is to say, we get to know what happened around us through a powerful bridge. My experience will be inevitably known by others?

Ss: Absolutely. There are many ways people can learn something. Maybe it can be found on the Internet tomorrow! You know, the media can make the world much smaller.

T: Right! Maybe I will be a star by the power of the media someday. I'm interested why the media can be so effective. But I have to say that I told a lie just now I'm not that lucky.

Ss: Haha, we were fooled. But we are more interested in the media now.

T: OK. In this unit, let's learn about the powerful bridge which is connecting our world- the media together. Well, let's begin!
