aloud,making a pause between sense groups.1-1Section Three:Detailed Reading Rumor is the most primitive way of spreading stories/by passing them on from mouth to mouth./But civilized countries in normal times/have better sources of news than rumor./They have radio,television,and newspapers./In times of stress and confusion,however,/rumor emerges and becomes widespread./At such times the different kinds of news are in competition:/the press,television,and radio versus the grapevine.Rumors are often repeated/even by those who do not believe the tales./There is a fascination about them./The ChaserRead aloud Audiovisual supplementsSection One:Pre-reading ActivitiesSection Two:Global ReadingSection Four:Consolidation Activities Section Five:Further Enhancement1-2Section Three:Detailed Reading The reason is that the cleverly designed rumor/gives expression to something deep in the hearts of the victims:/the fears,suspicions,forbidden hopes,/or daydreams which they hesitate to voice directly./Pessimistic rumors about defeat and disasters/show that people who repeat them are worried and anxious./Optimistic rumors about record production or peace/are soon coming point to complacency or confidence /and often to overconfidence.Read aloud Audiovisual supplementsSection One:Pre-reading ActivitiesII.Audiovisual supplementsWatch the film episode and then answer the

analysisSection One:Pre-reading ActivitiesSection Two:Global Reading2-1Cultural backgroundThis short story,which combines elements of horror and love,is built almost entirely through dialogue between a young man,Alan Austen,who is deeply in love and wants to possess his lover entirely,and an unnamed old man who believes in a life free of romantic involvement.As the dialogue develops,Austens attitude towards the potion changes from skeptical and hesitant to excited and overwhelmed.Readers have been kept in suspense of what will happen to the young man when the story comes to the last line“Au revoir”.Whats the function of the last line?I.Text analysisSection Three:Detailed ReadingThe Chaser Section Four:Consolidation Activities Section Five:Further EnhancementText analysis

of your spare time together you can spend time on your own,or with your own friends and family.Section One:Pre-reading ActivitiesThe Chaser Section Four:Consolidation Activities Section Five:Further EnhancementText analysis Structural analysisSection Two:Global ReadingSection Three:Detailed Reading2-3-2Cultural backgroundSometimes you may also ask,“Is it possible to be married and to be free?”Love is the highest value in life:It should not be reduced to stupid rituals.And love and freedom go together you cannot choose one and leave the other.A man who knows freedom is full of love,and a man who knows love is always willing to give freedom.If you cannot give freedom to the person you love,to whom can you give freedom?Giving freedom is nothing but trusting.Freedom is an expression of love.So remember the purpose of marriage is not to imprison you and bind you to each other;the purpose is to help you to grow with each other.Section One:Pre-reading ActivitiesThe Chaser Section Four:Consolidation Activities Section Five:Further EnhancementAlan Austen,as nervous as a kitten,went up certain dark and creaky stairs in the neighborhood of Pell Street,and peered about for a long time on the dim landing before he found the name he wanted written obscurely on one of the doors.He pushed open this door,as he had been told to do,and found himself in a tiny room,which contained no furniture but a plain kitchen table,a rocking chair,and an ordinary chair.On one of the dirty,buff-coloured walls were a couple of shelves,containing in all perhaps a dozen bottles and jars.An old man sat in the rocking chair,reading a newspaper.Alan,without a word,handed him the card he had been given.“Sit down,Mr.Austen,”said the old man very politely.“I am glad to make your acquaintance.”The ChaserSection Two:Global ReadingSection Three:Detailed Reading3.text1-SSection One:Pre-reading ActivitiesThe ChaserSection Four:Consolidation Activities Section Five:Further

deal in laxatives and teething mixtures but such as it is,it is varied.I think nothing I sell has effects which could be precisely described as ordinary.”“Well,the fact is.”began Alan.“Here,for example,”interrupted the old man,reaching for a bottle from the shelf.“Here is a liquid as colourless as water,almost tasteless,quite imperceptible in coffee,wine,or any other beverage.It is also quite imperceptible to any known method of autopsy.”“Do you mean it is a poison?”cried Alan,very much horrified.The ChaserSection Two:Global ReadingSection Three:Detailed Reading3.text2-SSection

never tried.One might call it a life-cleaner.Lives need cleaning sometimes.”“I want nothing of that sort,”said Alan.“Probably it is just as well,”said the old man.“Do you know the price of this?For one teaspoonful,which is sufficient,I ask five thousand dollars.Never less.Not a penny less.”“I hope all your mixtures are not as expensive,”said Alan apprehensively.“Oh dear,no,”said the old man.“It would be no good charging that sort of price for a love potion,for example.Young people who need a love potion very seldom have five thousand dollars.Otherwise they would not need a love potion.”“I am glad to hear that,”said Alan.The ChaserSection Two:Global ReadingSection Three:Detailed Reading3.text3-SSection One:Pre-reading ActivitiesSection Four:Consolidation Activities Section Five:Further

necessary.”“So,”said Alan,“you really do sell love potions?”“If I did not sell love potions,”said the old man,reaching for another bottle,“I should not have mentioned the other matter to you.It is only when one is in a position to oblige that one can afford to be so confidential.”“And these potions,”said Alan.“They are not just.just.er.”“Oh,no,”said the old man.“Their effects are permanent,and extend far beyond the mere casual impulse.But they include it.Oh,yes they include it.Bountifully,insistently.Everlastingly.”“Dear me!”said Alan,attempting a look of scientific detachment.“How very interesting!”The ChaserSection Two:Global ReadingSection Three:Detailed Reading3.text4-SSection One:Pre-reading ActivitiesSection Four:Consolidation Activities Section Five:Further Enhancement“But consider the spiritual side,”said the old man.“I do,indeed,”said Alan.“For indifference,”said the old man,“they substitute devotion.For scorn,adoration.Give one tiny measure of this to the young lady its flavour is imperceptible in orange juice,soup,or cocktails and however gay and giddy she is,she will change altogether.She will want nothing but solitude and you.”“I can hardly believe it,”said Alan.“She is so fond of parties.”“She will not like them any more,”said the old man.“She will be afraid of the pretty girls you may meet.”“She will actually be jealous?”cried Alan in a rapture.“Of me?”“Yes,she will want to be everything to you.”“She is,already.Only she doesnt care about it.”The ChaserSection Two:Global ReadingSection Three:Detailed Reading3.text5-SSection One:Pre-reading

know all you do,”said the old man.“All that has happened to you during the day.Every word of it.She will want to know what you are thinking about,why you smile suddenly,why you are looking sad.”“That is love!”cried Alan.“Yes,”said the old man.“How carefully she will look after you!She will never allow you to be tired,to sit in a draught,to neglect your food.If you are an hour late,she will be terrified.She will think you are killed,or that some siren has caught you.”“I can hardly imagine Diana like that!”cried Alan,overwhelmed with joy.The ChaserSection Two:Global ReadingSection

man.“And,by the way,since there are always sirens,if by any chance you should,later on,slip a little,you need not worry.She will forgive you,in the end.She will be terribly hurt,of course,but she will forgive you in the end.”“That will not happen,”said Alan fervently.“Of course not,”said the old man.“But,if it did,you need not worry.She would never divorce you.Oh,no!And,of course,she will never give you the least,the very least,grounds for uneasiness.”“And how much,”said Alan,“is this wonderful mixture?It is not as dear,”said the old man,“as the glove-cleaner,or life-cleaner,as I sometimes call it.No.That is five thousand dollars,never a penny less.One has to be older than you are,to indulge in that sort of thing.One has to save up for it.”The ChaserSection Two:Global ReadingSection

man,opening the drawer in the kitchen table,and taking out a tiny,rather dirty-looking phial.“That is just a dollar.”“I cant tell you how grateful I am,”said Alan,watching him fill it.“I like to oblige,”said the old man.“Then customers come back,later in life,when they are better off,and want more expensive things.Here you are.You will find it very effective.”“Thank you again,”said Alan.“Good-bye.”“Au revoir,”said the man.The ChaserSection Two:Global ReadingSection Three:Detailed Reading3.text1-WSection One:Pre-reading ActivitiesSection Four:Consolidation Activities Section
