【设计意图：通过观看视频，从学生感兴趣的话题入手，快速吸引他们的注意力，导入本课时主题。在语境中引出语言点，帮助学生扫清听力中的生词障碍。】
Step 2 Listening

T: Different people enjoy different places. Which do you like, Chinese gardens, museums, places of natural beauty, seaside cities or theme parks?
(1) If I enjoy Chinese gardens, what cities do you think I can travel to?
(2) If I enjoy museums, what cities do you think I can travel to?
(3) If I enjoy places of natural beauty, what places can you think of?
(4) If I enjoy seaside cities, do you know what cities I can travel to?
(5) If I enjoy theme parks, do you know what cities I can travel to?
【设计意图：根据学生的回答将旅行地进行分类，同样在自然交流的语境中呈现新词，扫清听力中的生词障碍，并且帮助学生初步了解听力内容，降低听力理解的难度。】
2. Complete Part A1
T: Five students are talking about the kinds of places they like best. What kinds of places do they like best? Let’s listen and find out.
Tip: Catch the key words.
3. Make sentences according to Part A1
【设计意图：该练习需要学生整合、转化听力材料，鼓励他们用不一样的动词或动词词组来造句，发展他们的发散性思维。本环节可为后续的听力任务及交流活动进行铺垫。】
4. Group discussion
T: Look at the form in Part A2 and try to make predictions before listening.
(1) What’s the best season to visit Chinese gardens/museums/places of natural beauty/seaside cities/theme parks?
(2) Why is it the best season to visit there?
【设计意图：听力策略中，预测方法尤为重要，它是建立在个人知识、经验和推理等基础之上的复杂活动。听前通过小组讨论问题的形式，引导学生对听的内容进行预测，在知识准备和语言环境两方面为接下来的听力任务做好铺垫。】
5. Complete Part A2
Tip: Catch the key words.
【设计意图：在预测后做听力可降低听的难度。在核对答案时，让学生检查自己的猜测是否和听力材料一致。对于猜测正确率高的学生给予鼓励，可极大提高他们参与课堂活动的热情。】
Step 3 Practice
1. Complete Part A3
Tip: Use the information in A1 and A2.
【设计意图：本部分全面考查了学生的信息转换和运用能力，这种加工整理的过程有助于他们理解、输出所听内容。】

2. Listen and read
T: Listen to the conversation again and read in pairs. Pay attention to the liaison and loss of explosion.
【设计意图：本环节目的在于让学生学习地道的英语发音，注意词与词之间的连读、失去爆破。这些其实也是听力中的障碍，听说是互相促进的，教师可再次强调新词汇及短语。】
3. Useful expressions
【设计意图：总结并巩固重点句型，帮助学生做到学以致用。】
Step 2 Practice
1. Make a survey
T: Talk about your holiday plans in groups of four. You can use the expressions on the screen as models. You may also ask some questions.
T: Take notes and fill in the form while listening. Remember to use the listening skills you’ve learnt.
T: Make a report about your group members’ holiday plans to the whole class. You can use the sentences on the screen to help you.
【设计意图：小组调查是一项综合性活动，涉及到听、说、写等多方面能力的训练。在完成课本相关听力训练并讲解了听力技巧后，我们需要这样真实的存在信息差的综合活动让学生在实践中操练并提高听力技巧，组内合作可以强带弱，提高学生的合作意识，让学生共同进步。】
