T: You like to learn about the world from books, don’t you?

S1: Yes.

T: What kind of books do you like to read?

S1:Books about sports/history…

T:How about you?

S2:…

Step 2  Presentation

1. T: David likes to learn about the world from books just like some of you. He likes basketball. He is reading an article about Spud Webb, a retired American basketball player. Maybe some boys who are interested in basket know him very well. Who’d like to tell us something about him?

   Then ask some volunteers to introduce what they know about Spud Webb.

2. Learn some new words and phrases. Make sure they can pronounce them correctly and understand their meanings.

Step3.  Reading

1. Read the article and then answer the following questions.

(1) When and where was Spud Webb born?

(3) What was his dream?

(4) Was he refused to play for the school team at first? Why?

(5) How did he become a star of the team?

(6) Why did he decide to play at the junior college? What did he do there?

(7) When did he become a player in NBA? What’s his proudest moment?

2. Check their answers

3. While asking and answer the questions, deal with some difficulties.

4. Play the tape and ask the students to read after it to get the pronunciation right.

Step 4  After reading

1. Finish B1-B3 alone.

2. Discuss in groups to make their answers more correct.

3. Ask some students to tell their answers, and check them together.

Step 5.  Writing

1. Finish B4 to find out how Spud didn’t give up at different stages of his life.
