WHILE YOU READ
Setting the scene
You are going to read a passage about the qualities of a long lasting friendship. While you
are reading, do the tasks in the textbook.
TASK 1
Instruction: Fill each blank with one of the words in the box.
T writes these words on the board:
Acquaintance, incapable of mutual, unselfIsh, give-and-take, friend, loyal to, suspicious
Then T instructs Ss to read the passage quickly and stop at the lines that contain these
words to guess their meanings (except for, the word friend as this word is familiar with
Ss).
Ss guess the meaning of the words based on the contexts in the sentences. For example,
to guess the meaning of unselfish Ss may realize that this word is the noun of unselfishness
in line 5. Therefore, they may guess the meaning of unselfish first. Ss can pay attention to
the prefix un - and such phrases as concerned only, his own interest and feelings in the
following sentence.
T checks that Ss understand the words correctly. T can check Ss understanding by
asking them to provide the Vietnamese equivalents to the words.
Next, T instructs Ss to use some strategies to do Task 1:
- Continue with the rest of the sentences.
T asks Ss to work individually to do the task
T goes around to help Ss when necessary.
T asks Ss to exchange their answers with other Ss.
T asks Ss for their answers and tells them to explain their choices.
T gives the correct answers:

1. mutual 5. give-and-take 2. incapable of 6. loyal to
3. unselfish 7. suspicious 4. acquaintance /friend

T asks Ss how .to do this task. If they do not remember, T may instruct them to use some
strategies to do the task:
+ First, skim the six questions to understand them. As Ss do this they:
T gives the correct answers:
1. The first quality for true friendship is unselfishness. It tells us / me that a person who is
concerned only with his / her own interests and feelings cannot be a true friend. (paragraph
2)
2. Because they take up an interest with enthusiasm, but they are soon tired of it, and they
feel the attraction of some new object. (line 23, paragraph 3)
3. The third quality for true friendship is loyalty. It tell us / me that the two friends must be
loyal to each other, and they must know each other so well that there can be no suspicions
between them. (line 13, paragraph 4)
4. Because if not people cannot feel safe when telling the other their secrets. (line 1 3,
paragraph 5)
5. Because they cannot keep a secret, either of their own or of others (line 3 4, paragraph
5)
6. The last quality is sympathy. It tells us / me that to be a true friend one must sympathise
with his / her friend. Where there is no mutual sympathy between friends, there is no true
friendship. (last paragraph)

13' PREPARING SS TO WRITE
T sets the scene: You are going to write about a friend, real or imaginary, using the
provided guidelines. T gets Ss to read the task and the guidelines silently and work out
what they are required to write about. In general, Ss writing should include three parts:
(1) general information about their friend, (2) his / her physical characteristics and
personalities, and (3) what Ss like about the friend.
T elicits the verb tenses that may be useful when Ss want to write about when and
where they met their friend. In this case, Ss may use the simple past tense and past
continuous in their writing. If needed, T may revise the uses of these tenses. T makes
clear that:
+ While the past simple i used to talk about an event that happened and finished in the
past, the past continuous is used to talk about an event that was happening at a specific
past time. We often use the past continuous together with the past simple. The past
continuous indicates a longer background action or situation; the simple past refers to a
shorter action or situation that happened in the middle or interrupted it.
T may also elicit / revise the adjectives and expressions Ss can use to describe their
friends appearance and personalities.
T gets Ss prepare an outline for their writing and
exchange it with their peer.

Individual
work
Probably my best friend is one of my classmates. Her name is Mai. We have known
each other since we were 8 years old, and we have studied together since then.
However, we became best friends when we were at grade 6. At that time I was very bad
at English, and it was her who helped me improve my English. Now Mai lives with
their parents in Hai Ba
Trungstreet.
If I were to describe how she looks, I would say she is very pretty. She has short black
hair, brown almondshaped eyes, a small nose and a small pointed chin. She is not very
tall but not short either and she is quite slim. She doesnt like to dress up so I usually
see her wearing jeans and a Tshirt or sweater. She has a very nice personality and a
wonderful sense of humor, but she can also get a little depressed from time to time. I
can always count on her to be honest and to give me the best advice.
What I like about Mai is that she has the same hobbies with me. We both enjoy music,
playing the guitar and singing. We like going to the cinema but sometimes cant agree
on which movie to see. Whatever were doing, its always fun to be with her. In
addition, since I am better in math and science and she is better in English and
languages, we can always help each other if we get confused about a dfJIcult
homework assignment. We are lucky that we complement each other so well and that
we get along so well. I hope that our friendship will continue and be just as strong after
we graduate from high school. We would like to study at the same university.

this sound palatal = put your tongue behind your top teeth, push air as you drop your
tongue away from the roof ofyour mouth
+ The phonetic sound/ti / is an unvoiced fricative palatal. unvoiced = vocal cords do not
vibrate while making this sound fricative palatal = touch your tongue to the back of your

or what is to be done with them.
+ I have letters to write. = I have letters that I must write.
+ Does he get anything to eat? = Does he get anything that he can eat?
Similarly with to-infinitives + preposition:
someone to talk to cushions to sit on a table to write on a tool to open it with a case to
keep my records in
2. Use of passive to-infinitive
+ There is plenty =
(a) plenty of things we can do
(b) plenty of work we must do
In the there + be+ noun / pronoun + to-infinitive construction, when there is an idea
of duty, as in (b) above, a passive to-infinitive is possible: There is a lot to be done.
But the active to-infinitive is more usual.
T continues writing some other sentences on the board:
+ Im sorry to trouble you.
+ It is easy to please that customer.
+ The pie is too hot to eat.
T asks some Ss to comment on the examples. T might explain to Ss that we can put to-
infinitives after adjectives. The form is: adj + to-infinitive; adj + too / enough+ to-
infinitive (too before an adjective means excessively; enough after an adjective means to
the necessary degree)
T asks some Ss to give some similar examples.

T asks Ss to do Exercise 1 individually and then compare their answers with another
student.

across to Ss that they should use as many sentences with to-infinitives and bare
infinitives as possible. The group which produces the most logical story with the most
appropriate sentences using toinfinitives and bare infinitives will be the winner.
T calls on some groups to tell their story and elicits feedback from the class.
T gives final comments and provides correction if necessary.
Suggested story:
A WISE CROW
A crow had not had anything to drink for a long time. One day she saw a pitcher. There
was a little water in the pitcher, but it was too low for her to reach. What was she to do?
She tried to break the pitcher with her beak, and then to overturn it on the ground, but it
was too hard and heavy to do. Then she thought of a plan. She picked up a number of
little stones and dropped them one by one into the pitcher. In this way the water was
soon raised high enough for her to easily reach.

perfect, past continuous). If necessary, T reviews the uses of these tenses.
E.g.:
+ The past simple is used to talk about an event that happened and finished in the past
+ The past continuous is used to talk about an event that was in progress around a
specflc past time. We often use the past continuous together with the past simple. The
past continuous refers to a longer background action or situation; the simple past refers
to a shorter action or situation that happened in the middle or interrupted it.
+ The past perfect is used to talk about an event that had happened before another event
that happened in the past.

Hanoi 15May2007
Dear Peter, How have you been doing? Have you got any plan for the
coming school break? Perhaps I will go to see my grandparents in the countryside. I
havent seen them since my
last school holiday.
Let me tell you about my last summer vacation at my grandparents It was almost a
year ago and was one of my most unforgettable experiences.
My grandparents live in a small village, which is about 70 kilometres southeast of
Hanoi. There is a large river at the back of their house where I often do swimming
every afternoon when I spend my vacation with them.
One day when I was swimming with some of my friends, I suddenly caught a cold. I
felt so dizzy and was too weak to continue swimming, so I started to sink. I thought I
was going to drown but I couldnt call out for help because I was too tired and
terrified. Luckily, one of my friends saw that and shouted for help. Immediately,
another friend who swims the best among us swam towards me and tried to pull me
up. Then other friends swam towards us to help him push me in. My ljfe was finally
saved.
Now recalling the moment I thought I was going to die, I understand how precious
life is. This event definitely taught me to appreciate my life.
What about you? Have you got any unforgettable holiday that you would like to share
with me?

GRAMMAR
Exercise 1
a) Presentation
If necessary, T reviews the forms, meanings and uses of the present simple, present
perfect, and present continuous.
Present simple
+ Form:
/ bare root for I, you, we, they + verb + s / es for he, she, it
+ Meaning: present time
E.g.: He needs you right now.
Do you have your passport with you?
Present continuous
+ Form: am / is I are + Ving
+ Meaning: Present time
E.g.: Are you sleeping?
Present perfect
+ Form: have / has + Past Participle
+ Meaning: Present
E.g.: I have seen that movie twenty times. I think I have met him once before.
Present Perfect.
E.g.: I have had a cold for two weeks.
Mary has loved chocolate since she was a little girl.
Note:

* You CANNOT use the Present Perfect with specific time expressions such as:
yesterday, one year ago, last week, when I was a child, when I lived in Japan, at that
moment, that day, one day, etc. We CAN use the Present Perfect with unspecific
expressions such as: ever, never, once, many times, several times, before, so far, already,
yet, etc.
T emphasises that we can use all these present tenses in telling stories (which are often
concerned with past events) to make the stories more interesting.
If T sees that Ss have already mastered the forms, meanings, and uses of these verb
tenses, T can skip the presentation stage to save time, and go straight to the practice
stage.

with.
T checks with the whole class and provides corrective feedback.
