for I have been to Beijing twice and it's boring. I like nature more than a city.

Ask students to do pair work after class for the shortage of time and let students find out which are the most popular and least popular holidays.

Step III Writing

T: In the first period, we learned about a brochure. Now can you tell me what a brochure is?

Ss: Yes, it means a small book or material that introduces something.

T: OK. Now you look at the Camp Xtreme brochure. Read the Camp Xtreme brochure and match the paragraphs (1-3) with the headings (a-c).

...

T: You go through the brochure and elicit examples of brochure writing styles.

T: Good. Can you tell me what similar expressions the author uses in Chinese when writing a brochure?

S2: We use 摆事实,列数据,下定义等.

T: OK. After we look at the brochure, let's try to write a brochure for an adventure camp. You can follow the stages. Look at Stage 1; you should first elicit information of an adventure camp. For this step, you make notes by answering questions listed in the book. Then you plan your paragraphs. My advice is that you choose four paragraphs. Next, you write your brochure and check it. Later, I'll ask someone to read out your brochure.

Give students several minutes to go through each stage, making notes before they write their brochure in Stage 3. If necessary, let students work in pairs rather than individually.

Several minutes later, check the writing. Remind students to pay attention to the brochure style, the language and the beginning of sentences.
