师：Hello everybody, welcome to my class. Today we are going to work on “uniform France forever” using language, vocabulary, listening and speaking. Here are the learning objectives: at the end of the class, you'll be able to understand the meanings of the keywords describing one's behavior and quality, and create your own friendship soup recipe.
We'll summarize the main idea of the conversation and number the events in the correct order. Talk about how Andy and Clara gave suggestions. Add down the conversation to solve a problem between friends by using the functional expressions.
Let's start our class by answering the following questions. Do you have friends? Yes, of course. Almost everybody has their own friends. Does friendship matter to you? Probably, yes. As we all know, friendship plays a very important role in our life. So some people even compare keeping friendship to cooking a soup. Do you agree? If so, if friendship were a soup, what ingredients would be in it?
生：Kindness, honesty, duty.
师：Yes, they are very good words for friendship. Now please open your book and turn to page 42. You will have one minute to read the recipe in Activity 4 and then circle the measure words and underline all the ingredients. The measure words include about stuff like 5 grams of, 2 cups of, one spoon of, three spoons of, 3 cups of, one pack of, one glass of, two jars of, one bag of, one piece of, a slice of. In the recipe, there are various ingredients such as love, smile, trust, encouragement, helpfulness, good conversation, similar interests, comfort, patience, passion, generosity and humor. Have you noticed that in the recipe, there are some words in bold and in different colors.
Now let's move to activity 5. Match the words in bold in Activity 4 to the dictionary entries. You'll be given two minutes to finish it. Okay, let's check the answers.
Generosity is an air of being kind, especially by giving things to others.

As we all know, to learn English well, vocabulary is the key. But when we learn English, it is likely that we will miss some new words which we may have difficulty in understanding, right? Don't worry. Here are two tips for study. First, it will be a good idea to refer to a dictionary because a dictionary is a great help. By doing this, we can learn a lot from it, such as the spelling of the word, its explanation, as well as the part of speech. Second, we could apply the knowledge of word formation that we learned in Unit 2. Take “encouragement” for example. “Encourage” is a verb that we have learned before. By adding a suffix, here comes its noun form “encouragement”. If you take this advice, it can make your English learning much easier. Next, it's your turn to create your own recipe for the friendship soup. Work in pairs, try to come up with more words to enrich your recipe. You may have two minutes to get prepared to make your friendship soup recipe delicious and nutritious.
生：There are many choices to consider, like energy, bravery, diligence, responsibility, dedication, optimism, ability, ambition, creativity, carefulness, confidence and sincerity.
师：Although different people have different standards for friends and friendship, those are the good qualities we should value and pursue. Actually, friends have a lot more for us to explore.
Please read the short passage on page 43. You will have one minute to do so. What impresses you most after reading it?
生：The word “Friend” comes from the Old English “freon”, meaning the loved one. Good friends are ones who are often genetically similar. They can share up to 1% of the same genes.
师：So cherish your friends because they are like your family members. If one day your friend is in trouble, what will you do?
生：You will surely give him or her a helping hand.
