S5: In some listening materials, I got the news that David Bates first saw the aliens landing on the moon two years before and this was the third time for him to see the aliens landing on the moon, though few people believed him.

S6: Yes. I think when he went to the police they would say, "Aliens land on the moon? Oh, come on! We don't believe a word of it! It's a crazy idea. Will you please go home and have a rest? Maybe you are too tired to watch carefully enough." Or something like that.

A sample version:

David Bates is 68 years and he has had his telescope for three years, through which he watched the universe carefully and curiously. It's said that he saw the aliens landing on the moon last year and two years ago. But when he reported his discoveries to the police, they said to him, "Aliens land on the moon? Oh, come on! We don't believe a word of it! It's a crazy idea. Will you please go home and have a rest? Maybe you are too tired to watch carefully enough." Do you believe him or not?

Step III Task

In this part, ask the Ss to work in pairs and discuss their favorite magazines or newspapers. Make sure they are aware of what to do. First, let them name the newspapers and magazines; second, ask them to give reasons why they like them, and then ask them to write a passage about it.

T: Boys and girls, in the past four classes we have known something about newspapers and magazines. Do you like reading newspapers and magazines? Why? / Why not?

Ss: Yes. Because they can enrich our life and enlarge our knowledge. By reading we can learn about all the places in the world and learn from people we will never meet in our lifetime.

T: Can you name the newspapers and magazines you read in your everyday life?

Ss: Readers, China Today, English Salon, English Weekly, China Daily, 21st Century and so on.

T: That's great. As a famous saying goes, "Reading can make a wise man." Now turn to Page 50 and do Activity 2. Please work in groups of four and have a discussion. Talk about the reasons why you read your favorite newspapers or magazines. Five minutes
