1. Revision
Revise the questions in Lesson One, and learn the words in this lesson. We can ask like this:
-What am I saying?
-How do you say “Nice to meet you.” Using body language?
-What body language do you use? ( - When I want to say OK, I make a circle with my thumb and index finger while having the other three fingers stretched upward. )
-What words should we learn today?
The words in this lesson are rude, mistake, make a mistake, common, everywhere, mean, go away, strange, example, for example, can’t help doing sth, etc.
2. Vocabulary Preview
Look at the nine sentences, fill in the blanks with the words we see in the box on the right. The answers: Come here; Go away; can’t help; rude; means; everywhere; strange; For example; common.
3. Reading
Identify the speakers before having the students read the passage.
T: Who are the speakers?
S: Susan, Liu Chang, and Mike.
T: What do you think they will be talking about?
S: Body language.
T: That’s correct. We can notice it from the title of this unit. Now, let me play the tape. As you read, why don’t you check any words that are unfamiliar to you?
Ask the question given at the top of the reading passage.
T: What is the answer for the question given at the top? What can’t Susan help doing?
S: She can’t help using body language.
Write the following question on the board: “What are the gestures mentioned by Susan, Mike, and Liu Chang?” Ask the students to think about this question as they read the passage again silently.
T: Keep this question in mind while you read the passage to yourself.
T: Taking notes could also help you understand the passage because several gestures are mentioned.
4. After Reading
A. Check the students’ understanding by having them answer the questions.
T: What is the answer for Question 1?
S: The answer is a.
T: Why is it a?
S: Susan, Liu Chang, and Mike are talking about body language in China and America.
The clues are:
  1. (Line 1-12, second column, page 12) “I learned to point at things. It’s okay there.” – A pronoun usually refers to something already mentioned in a previous sentence.
  2. (Line. 19-20, second column, page 12) “We all use different body language.”
B. Reconfirm the students’ understanding by talking about the gestures presented in pictures. The teacher should specifically describe how to make the gestures in words.
T: Let’s go over each sign. Tell me whether each kind of body language is common or only acceptable in certain countries.
Answers:
  1. America / Canada ( making a circle with a thumb and an index finger while having the rest of the fingers opened: OK )
  2. America / Canada ( moving an index finger in and out while having the rest of the fingers fisted: Come here. )
  3. China ( pointing to something with an index finger is not allowed )
  4. All ( Smiling )
  5. China ( moving a hand in and out with the palm faced down: come here )

Explain more body language that is used in English-speaking countries.
. Crossing your index and your middle finger is a sign that you are hoping for good luck.
. If you twiddle your thumbs, it means your annoyed or bored.
. “Give me five” means “Yes, we’ve done it.”
. If you draw your index finger across your throat, it is telling others that they can’t do something.
