S:
T: Wow, not bad. I am glad to hear that. Before today's class, I have something to show you. Look, who is he?
S:
T: Yes, he is Yang Liwei. He is an astronaut. When I was young, my dream career was astronaut. I do think it is a meaningful work. That is my future plan. So how about you? Your career and your life. You can have a talk with your classmates. I'll give you three minutes. Ok, now you can begin.
S:
T: Who wants to share your plan with us?

T: OK, Lily. Wow, you want to be a teacher in the future. Great! It sounds like a great idea. Any others?
T: OK, John, you want to be a doctor. Great! Sit down, please. OK, I see all of you have your own future plans. So today we will talk about one's future plan.
II. Pre-listening
T: OK, boys and girls. Look at the pictures on the screen. Do you know which city it is?
S:
T: Yes, it's Paris. OK, how do you think of this city?
S:
T: It is a city with a long history. And there are many beautiful buildings there. So do you want to go there in the future? Oh, I see. Maybe some of you do. So can you make a prediction about the passage according to the picture? OK, Bob, please.
S:
T: You think it will talk about the history of Paris. Oh, that is a good guessing.
III. While-listening
T: Now let's listen to the tape to check whether your guessing is right or wrong. And tell me what the main idea of the passage is. Ok, now let's begin. OK, what is the passage about? Who wants to have a try? Ok, you, please.
S:
T: It is about author's future plans. Great, OK, you got the right answer. You did a good job. Then there is a much harder task for you. Please listen to the tape again. And this time you should listen carefully and you will answer the questions on the blackboard. Of course, you can discuss with your partners. Of course, it is a good idea to write down some information that you heard. Are you ready? OK, now let's start!
S:
T: OK, have you finished? The first question: what does the author want to be? Yes, it is an easy question. Ok now let's say it together.
T: Wonderful! The author wants to be an artist. Great! OK, the next question: how is he going to achieve his goal? Who knows the answer?
T: Yes, he is going to find a part-time job to save some money. OK, and any others? Yes, he is going to be a student in an art school in Paris. Well done! But your answer is not complete. Who can help her? Great! Alice, you are a brave girl!
S:
T: Oh, yes, he is going to study French at the same time. Brilliant! OK, thank you so much! Let's move to the last question: where is he going after retirement? Any volunteers?
S:
T: OK, perfectly! He is going to somewhere quiet and beautiful. OK, everyone, you really listen to the tape very carefully. You have finished the questions on the blackboard. Excellent! Now the last challenge. Listen to the tape for the last time. And you should try to make an outline for the author's steps to achieve the goal. I will give you five minutes. OK, now let's start.
S:
T: OK, who wants to share your outline with us? OK, Jill, you please.
S:
T: Wow, your mind map is so clear. It is very easy for us to get information from it. Thank you, Jill. Go back to your seat. You all did a good job. And I want to thumb up for you guys. Yes, great.
IV. Post-listening
T: Next I want you guys to do an interview. Four groups as before. Each group has a little journalist. You should interview the other members about their future plans. The journalist should make a record. After that, you should write a short passage named "my future plan" and I will invite some of you to make a speech in front of the class. Ok? Now you can begin.
S:
T: Ding Dong. Time is up. If any group wants to perform in the front of the class, come on! Yes, group 1. Come here.
