教师活动：教师让学生阅读P43两篇节选，回答下列问题：
What message is conveyed in the two excerpts?
The excerpt from David Copperfield shows the main character's passion for whatever he is doing. The other excerpt from The House on Mango Street introduces the concept of making full use of what we have now.
教师完成下面两个问题：
(1) Which of the excerpts makes you feel like reading the whole book? Why?
The second excerpt makes me feel like reading the whole book because I think the language the author uses is simple but beautiful. I particularly like her description of the sky keeping us safe when we are sad.
(2) What is your favourite work of literature? Why?
Of the many works of literature I have read, my favourite by far is The Gadfly by the Irish writer Ethel Voynich. The story takes place during a revolution in Italy in the 19th century. Through a series of exciting events, the hero, Arthur Burton, comes to terms with his identity and becomes a true revolutionary. This book is an amazing coming-of-age story that moved me deeply, and I would recommend it to anyone.
