一、朗读 Read aloud
以前，我一有空就玩平板电脑，一玩就是好几个小时。
yǐ qián wǒ yì yǒu kōng jiù wán píng bǎn diàn nǎo yì wán jiù shì hǎo jǐ ge xiǎo shí
I used to play on my tablet whenever I was free, often for hours at a time.
吃饭的时候，妈妈叫了我好几次，我都没听见。
chī fàn de shí hou mā ma jiào le wǒ hǎo jǐ cì wǒ dōu méi tīng jiàn
At mealtimes, Mum called me several times, but I didn't hear her.
晚上，爸爸妈妈和妹妹坐在沙发上有说有笑，我却一个人坐在一边，眼睛又红又痛。
wǎn shang bà ba mā ma hé mèi mei zuò zài shā fā shàng yǒu shuō yǒu xiào wǒ què yí gè rén zuò zài yì biān yǎn jing yòu hóng yòu tòng
In the evenings, Mum, Dad and my little sister sat chatting and laughing on the sofa, while I sat on my own with red, sore eyes.
有一天，爸爸和我一起定了一个规定：做完功课才可以玩，每天只能玩一个小时。
yǒu yì tiān bà ba hé wǒ yì qǐ dìng le yí gè guī dìng zuò wán gōng kè cái kě yǐ wán měi tiān zhǐ néng wán yí gè xiǎo shí
One day, Dad and I made a rule together: I can only play after finishing my homework, and for just one hour a day.
一开始我很不习惯，后来我发现，和家人下棋、折纸飞机也很有趣。
yì kāi shǐ wǒ hěn bù xí guàn hòu lái wǒ fā xiàn hé jiā rén xià qí zhé zhǐ fēi jī yě hěn yǒu qù
At first it felt strange, but then I found that playing chess and folding paper planes with my family is fun too.
现在，我的眼睛不痛了，和家人的感情也更好了。
xiàn zài wǒ de yǎn jing bú tòng le hé jiā rén de gǎn qíng yě gèng hǎo le
Now my eyes don't hurt any more, and I am closer to my family.
二、看图说话 Talk about the picture
老师：请你说一说图里的情景。
qǐng nǐ shuō yi shuō tú lǐ de qíng jǐng
Please describe what is happening in the picture.
范例：这是晚上，一家人在客厅里。爸爸、妈妈和妹妹坐在沙发上有说有笑。一个男孩坐在旁边玩平板电脑，他的眼睛都红了。
zhè shì wǎn shang yì jiā rén zài kè tīng lǐ bà ba mā ma hé mèi mei zuò zài shā fā shàng yǒu shuō yǒu xiào yí gè nán hái zuò zài páng biān wán píng bǎn diàn nǎo tā de yǎn jing dōu hóng le
It is evening, and a family is in the living room. Dad, Mum and the little sister are chatting and laughing on the sofa. A boy sits to one side playing on a tablet, and his eyes have gone red.
老师：你怎么知道现在是晚上？
nǐ zěn me zhī dào xiàn zài shì wǎn shang
How do you know it is evening?
范例：因为窗外的天空是黑的，还可以看到月亮和星星。
yīn wèi chuāng wài de tiān kōng shì hēi de hái kě yǐ kàn dào yuè liang hé xīng xing
Because the sky outside the window is dark, and you can see the moon and stars.
老师：你觉得这个男孩这样做对吗？为什么？
nǐ jué de zhè ge nán hái zhè yàng zuò duì ma wèi shén me
Do you think the boy is right to do this? Why?
范例：我觉得不对。他玩平板电脑玩得太久，眼睛会受伤。而且他没有和家人在一起，错过了和家人聊天的时间。
wǒ jué de bú duì tā wán píng bǎn diàn nǎo wán de tài jiǔ yǎn jing huì shòu shāng ér qiě tā méi yǒu hé jiā rén zài yì qǐ cuò guò le hé jiā rén liáo tiān de shí jiān
I don't think so. He has been on the tablet too long, which can hurt his eyes. Also, he is not with his family, so he misses the chance to talk with them.
老师：你每天用电子产品多久？你觉得够吗？
nǐ měi tiān yòng diàn zǐ chǎn pǐn duō jiǔ nǐ jué de gòu ma
How long do you use electronic devices each day? Do you think that is enough?
范例：我每天大约用一个小时，主要是做功课和看新闻。我觉得够了，因为我还要留时间运动和看书。
wǒ měi tiān dà yuē yòng yí gè xiǎo shí zhǔ yào shì zuò gōng kè hé kàn xīn wén wǒ jué de gòu le yīn wèi wǒ hái yào liú shí jiān yùn dòng hé kàn shū
I use them for about an hour a day, mostly for homework and the news. I think that is enough, because I need time for sport and reading too.
老师：茶几上有什么？
chá jī shàng yǒu shén me
What is on the coffee table?
范例：茶几上有一本打开的书，可是没有人在看。
chá jī shàng yǒu yì běn dǎ kāi de shū kě shì méi yǒu rén zài kàn
There is an open book on the coffee table, but nobody is reading it.
老师：如果男孩继续玩下去，会怎么样？
rú guǒ nán hái jì xù wán xià qù huì zěn me yàng
If the boy keeps on playing, what will happen?
范例：如果他继续玩下去，眼睛会越来越累，可能会近视。晚上也会睡得太晚，第二天上课没有精神。
rú guǒ tā jì xù wán xià qù yǎn jing huì yuè lái yuè lèi kě néng huì jìn shì wǎn shang yě huì shuì de tài wǎn dì èr tiān shàng kè méi yǒu jīng shén
If he keeps on playing, his eyes will get more and more tired and he may become short-sighted. He will also go to bed too late, and have no energy in class the next day.
老师：你觉得妈妈接下来会对男孩说什么？
nǐ jué de mā ma jiē xià lái huì duì nán hái shuō shén me
What do you think Mum will say to the boy next?
范例：我想妈妈会叫他放下平板电脑，过来和家人一起聊天，或者去看那本书。
wǒ xiǎng mā ma huì jiào tā fàng xià píng bǎn diàn nǎo guò lái hé jiā rén yì qǐ liáo tiān huò zhě qù kàn nà běn shū
I think Mum will tell him to put down the tablet and come over to chat with the family, or go and read that book.
三、会话 Conversation
情景：在一段视频里，一家人在餐馆吃饭，可是每个人都低头看手机，谁也不说话。
zài yí duàn shì pín lǐ yì jiā rén zài cān guǎn chī fàn kě shì měi ge rén dōu dī tóu kàn shǒu jī shéi yě bù shuō huà
In a video, a family is eating at a restaurant, but everyone is looking down at their phones and nobody talks.
老师：视频里发生了什么事？你有什么看法？
shì pín lǐ fā shēng le shén me shì nǐ yǒu shén me kàn fǎ
What happens in the video? What do you think of it?
范例：一家人在餐馆吃饭，可是大家都在看手机，没有人说话。我觉得很可惜，因为吃饭是家人聊天的好时间。
yì jiā rén zài cān guǎn chī fàn kě shì dà jiā dōu zài kàn shǒu jī méi yǒu rén shuō huà wǒ jué de hěn kě xī yīn wèi chī fàn shì jiā rén liáo tiān de hǎo shí jiān
A family is eating at a restaurant, but everyone is on their phone and nobody talks. I think it is a pity, because mealtimes are a good time for families to talk.
💡 Describe what happens first, then give your view with a reason.
老师：你家有什么用手机的规定吗？
nǐ jiā yǒu shén me yòng shǒu jī de guī dìng ma
Does your family have rules about using phones?
范例：有。我们家吃饭的时候，大家都要把手机放在一边。晚上九点以后，我也不可以再玩平板电脑。
yǒu wǒ men jiā chī fàn de shí hou dà jiā dōu yào bǎ shǒu jī fàng zài yì biān wǎn shang jiǔ diǎn yǐ hòu wǒ yě bù kě yǐ zài wán píng bǎn diàn nǎo
Yes. At mealtimes, everyone in my family puts their phone aside. After nine at night, I am not allowed to play on my tablet either.
💡 Give one or two real rules from your home, with when they apply.
老师：你认为怎样才能不沉迷于电子产品？
nǐ rèn wéi zěn yàng cái néng bù chén mí yú diàn zǐ chǎn pǐn
How do you think we can avoid getting hooked on electronic devices?
范例：我认为首先要给自己定一个时间表，按时休息。另外，可以多参加户外活动，比如打球、骑脚踏车。最重要的是，家长也要以身作则。
wǒ rèn wéi shǒu xiān yào gěi zì jǐ dìng yí gè shí jiān biǎo àn shí xiū xi lìng wài kě yǐ duō cān jiā hù wài huó dòng bǐ rú dǎ qiú qí jiǎo tà chē zuì zhòng yào de shì jiā zhǎng yě yào yǐ shēn zuò zé
I think, first, we should set ourselves a timetable and take breaks on time. Also, we can do more outdoor activities, like ball games and cycling. Most important, parents should set an example too.
💡 Give two or three ideas with 首先、另外、最重要的是.
老师：如果你的好朋友每天玩游戏玩到很晚，你会怎么劝他？
rú guǒ nǐ de hǎo péng you měi tiān wán yóu xì wán dào hěn wǎn nǐ huì zěn me quàn tā
If your good friend played games until very late every night, how would you persuade him to stop?
范例：我会告诉他，玩太久对眼睛和身体都不好，第二天上课也会没精神。我还会约他周末一起去打羽毛球，让他有别的事情可以做。
wǒ huì gào su tā wán tài jiǔ duì yǎn jing hé shēn tǐ dōu bù hǎo dì èr tiān shàng kè yě huì méi jīng shén wǒ hái huì yuē tā zhōu mò yì qǐ qù dǎ yǔ máo qiú ràng tā yǒu bié de shì qing kě yǐ zuò
I would tell him that playing too long is bad for his eyes and his body, and he will have no energy in class the next day. I would also ask him to play badminton with me at the weekend, so he has something else to do.
💡 Give the reason for your advice first, then suggest something better to do instead.
老师：电子产品对学习有什么好处和坏处？
diàn zǐ chǎn pǐn duì xué xí yǒu shén me hǎo chù hé huài chù
What are the good and bad points of electronic devices for studying?
范例：好处是我们可以上网查资料，看学习视频。坏处是很容易分心，一不小心就玩起了游戏。所以我们要学会控制自己。
hǎo chù shì wǒ men kě yǐ shàng wǎng chá zī liào kàn xué xí shì pín huài chù shì hěn róng yì fēn xīn yí bù xiǎo xīn jiù wán qǐ le yóu xì suǒ yǐ wǒ men yào xué huì kòng zhì zì jǐ
The good point is that we can go online to look things up and watch learning videos. The bad point is that it is easy to get distracted, and before you know it you are playing games. So we must learn to control ourselves.
💡 Give one good point (好处是) and one bad point (坏处是), then sum up with 所以.
