模块2 Unit 1 Can you tell me where you’re from?
■Warm up by learning about object clauses.
In the sentence “Can you tell me where you’re from?” “Can you tell me” is the main clause, and “where you’re from” is the object clause.
Now we go on to make similar sentences.
Can you tell me where you’re from?
Can you tell me where he’s from?
Can you tell me what you are going to do?
Can you tell me when he leaves for Beijing?
Can you tell me how they are going to go to Nanjing?
Can you tell me who will tidy up the room?
Can you tell me whether he is a teacher or not?

■Read and listen.
On page 10 in the box is a conversation between among Chen Huan, Receptionist, Sally and Lingling. Now let’s go on to read it first. While reading, try to: cut/ the sentence into thought groups, study the predicative, darken the connectives and underline all the useful expressions. (阅读过程中，断开/意群，观察谓语构成，圈出连词，摘录短语搭配。)

Chen Huan: Do you hear if Sally Maxwell has come?
Receptionist: That’s Miss Maxwell.
Chen Huan: Hi, are you Sally?
Sally: Yes, that’s right. This is my roommate Mary. I asked your secretary whether she could come or not.
Chen Huan: Oh, yes. Hi Mary. OK, I’m going to ask you some personal questions, and record your answers. OK, here goes… Sally, welcome to Beijing!
Sally: Thank you.
Chen Huan: Can you tell me where you are from?
Sally: Yes, I’m from the USA. I’m here with some classmates. In fact, I’m studying Chinese history.
Chen Huan: And I’ve heard that you play in movies for children.
Sally: Yes, our last movie will be here in China in a couple of months. But I don’t know if it will be successful.
Chen Huan: Can I ask you if you miss the USA, or your relations?
Sally: Yes, I miss my parents, but I have some close friends here.
Chen Huan: I know that foreigners find China very different from their own countries. What does it feel?
Sally: It’s a very nice place. But I don’t like the word “foreigner”. My visit here is all about making friends.
Chen Huan: OK, Sally, thank you. And good luck with the movie… (They stop.) That was great! So this recording will be part of the news report. By the way, why don’t you bring all your friends for a visit to Beijing Daily? Maybe sometime next week?
Lingling & Sally: OK, thanks!
