Pausanias and the other stands for Lily.Get them to find out all the information about Olympics of their time.‎ T：Just now we got to know something about Olympics in Pausanias’ and Lily’s time.Now I

‎（2）Suppose you are Lily.Now you meet your old friend/mother/teacher and you talk with him/her about what you know from Pausanias.‎ T：So far we have talked a lot about Olympics in Lily and Pausanias’ time.Now I would like you to work in pairs and talk about the interview.I would like the Ss in the first two groups to be Pausanias （put some olive wreaths on the head of the students sitting in front of the two groups）and you meet your old friend/mother/teacher and you talk with him/her about your interview with Lily about the modern Olympics.As for the other two groups （facing the two groups），you

understand the problems that women had in Ancient Greece.The Greeks had wonderful stories about the Gods and Goddesses who were part of their religion.They believe that these Gods （or Goddesses） ‎ would help if they felt sorry for them or if the humans were good people.The Gods did not always help though.They behaved like people who were unpredictable and capricious.To try to get the support of the Gods people had to pray to them and offer them presents.In this story the Goddess Hera，the Greek Goddess of Love （the wife of the chief God，Zeus）was sorry for Hippomenes and agreed to help him.‎

beginning of the Olympic Games in the ancient time.‎ ‎2.To know the athlete in the past and the fact that women were not allowed to take part in.‎ Teaching Difficult Point：‎ To understand the content and finish the true or false exercises efficiently.‎ Teaching Methods：‎ ‎1.Skimming to get the general idea of the story of Atlanta.‎ ‎2.Scanning to get detailed information and get to understand the story better.‎ ‎3.Task-based methods to get the students to comprehend the passage and be able to retell the story in their own words.‎ Teaching Aids：‎ ‎1.A tape recorder.‎ ‎2.A multimedia.‎ Teaching Procedures：‎ Step 1 Revision ‎1.Revise the future passive voice.‎ T：It’s getting cold now.Will you bring or buy some thick clothes to school?‎ Ss：Yes.‎ T：In fact we may also say that because it is getting cold now，some thick clothes... ‎ Ss：Some thick clothes will be brought or bought.‎ T：That is to say，some thick clothes will be brought or bought.Sometimes we can use future passive voice to
