【设计意图】通过听，让学生找出所给人物最喜欢的运动，然后让学生两人一组完成对话，巩固听力内容，既操练了句型，也为接下来的补全文章这一教学任务做好了准备。
Step 3 Practice

Music makes Sandy feel great.
Sandy also likes playing volleyball.
Millie likes listening to music.

【设计意图】通过完成不同教学任务，帮助学生熟悉对话内容，同时也为之后的编对话任务带来一定的文本输入。
Step 4 Consolidation

【设计意图】让学生由课本的对话，过渡至谈论自己，发挥语言的语用功能，让他们就彼此放学后的活动这一话题进行对话练习。最后让学生以之前的听力材料作为输入内容，4人一个小组，进行组内业余爱好的调查，形成报告，汇报给全班，让学生在真实的语言环境中进行口语操练。
V. Homework
1. Show your report to your parents.
2. Recite the dialogue in the textbook.
