师：Hello everyone, welcome to my class. I'm Zhong Hongwei from Guantang Senior High School. Today we're going to do some reading from Unit 1, Life Choices, Lesson 1, Lifestyles. Before we start, getting familiar with the learning objectives will be helpful. By the end of this class, you should be able to figure out the meaning of "digital native" and "go - getter" based on titles and given pictures. Secondly, you'll be able to summarize the structure of an introduction. Thirdly, you'll be able to give suggestions using certain sentence patterns. And finally, you can introduce your own lifestyle using the structure we learn today. I hope you'll learn something useful. Okay, open your textbooks and let's begin.
At the start, I have a question for you. What is lifestyle? Some of you might say it's how you lead your life. Yes, I agree. But here's my definition: A lifestyle is the way a person or a group of people live, including where they live, what they earn, the kind of job they do, and the activities they enjoy. There are various lifestyles, like an active one, a healthy one, a busy one, or a stressful one. In fact, daily activities are related to our lifestyles.
So, could you tell me what activities you enjoy? You can use the sentence pattern "To chat with friends online is a big part of my life." Now, I want you to use other activities to practice this pattern. I'll give you 1 minute to do it.
生：（学生练习）
师：Very good. I'm sure you've mastered this sentence pattern. Now, let's look at two pictures and read the self - introductions to understand the titles. Let's read them together. First: "I'm Ju, a student from London. You will often find me sitting in front of my laptop." Second: "I'm Li Yi. I like to set goals for myself. I'm a go - getter. When I set out to do something, I do my best to achieve it." Here, "set out to do" means to start making plans to do something to achieve a particular result.
According to the self - introductions and the pictures, could you guess the meanings of "digital native" and "go - getter"? Pause for one or two minutes and write your guesses on paper.
生：（学生思考并书写猜测）
师：Okay, I think you all have your own understandings. Remember we said daily activities are related to lifestyles? First, I'd like you to predict what activities Ju and Li Yin would do based on the pictures and titles. Pause for one or two minutes and write down your predictions.
生：（学生思考并书写预测）
师：I believe this task is easy for you. Here are my predictions. I predict that Ju will talk with friends, watch films, read novels, and play computer games online. As for Li Yin, I predict she will set goals for herself, study hard every day, do voluntary work, and exercise every day. I hope our predictions are correct.
Now, let's check. Read the passage for the first time. Check your predictions and underline Ju's online activities and Li Yin's study habits. You have 3 minutes to finish reading.
