　　第二部分  教学流程
　　Step 1  Pre-reading 
　　T: Hello, everyone! Nice to meet you. I’m Mr. Bao from Wuxi Big Bridge Experimental High School. Look at the picture of my school.
　　T: Is the teaching building tall? It has 12 floors. It may be the tallest teaching building in Jiangsu. Do you know why we built such a tall building? Because the school is close to the city center and we don’t have much space.
　　T: Near the school, there are many shops. Many teachers love going shopping at lunchtime. I don’t like shopping much, but I often go to one of the shops. Can you guess what kind of shop it is?
　　T: Yes, you are right. I often go to the electrical shop. I love to have a look at those TVs, cameras, MP3 players and so on. Last week, I went there again and saw a strange thing. Let’s have a look.
　　T: Do you know what it is? It’s a robot. Do you know what it can help us do? It can help us sweep the floor. Do you like it? Yes? It may help you a lot, but it may also bring you much trouble. You don’t believe that? Today we are going to learn about Mr. Jiang’s robot. Let’s find out how the robot change his life. Before we start to read the article, let’s have a look at these new words.
　　T: Here we have seven new words. Can you match them with the meanings on the right? No. 1, salesman. What does it mean? Yes, it means a man who sells things. No. 2, spare. Yes. Spare means free. For example, spare time, it  means free time. No. 3, iron. It means ‘make clothes smooth with an iron’. No. 4, laundry. What does it mean? Yes. It means the process of washing clothes. We often say do the laundry, which means do the washing. No. 5, virus. It’s something that causes computer problems. No. 6, mess. Mess means a dirty and untidy condition. We often  say ‘in a mess’. No. 7, spread. It means covered a large area.
　　T: Now, please read these new words after me.
　　Step 2  While-reading 
　　T: Very good. Now would you please listen to the article on the tape for the main idea? Please listen and answer these two questions.
　　1 Did the robot make a great difference to Mr Jiang’
