Step 1 Revision
1 Check the hom ework exercises.
2 Get Ss to have a dialogue like the one in Part 2 of Lesson 52, in pairs, with their books shut.
Step 2 Presentation
SB Page. 7, Part 1. Write the word slavery on the Bb and ask the Ss how much they know about this topic. Make sure that Ss understand that slaves were caught in Africa and were taken to America where they were sold, as this is the key to the story. Put any useful notes and key words that arise out of this discussion on the Bb. Get Ss to talk about the picture and describe what they can see.
Step 3 Reading for general understanding
Say to the Ss You are going to read a story about a man who lived in the eighteenth century. His name was Kunta. Read aloud the task and the two questions. Allow the Ss enough time to read the text and write down the answers. Put them in pairs to discuss their answers, then collect the answers from the class. (1 He was caught in a forest in Africa, put in chains and sent by ship to .America. 2 About a third of the black people on the ship died during the journey.)
Step 4 Reading
Wb Lesson 53, Ex. 1. Go through the exercise and make sure the Ss know what to do. Let them read the whole passage carefully and answer the questions, working in pairs or small groups. Check the answers with the whole class. This is a good time to deal with any language problems. See if the Ss can guess the meaning of softly, hopeless.
Step 5 Comprehension
Explain that Ss have to read the text again and put the events into the correct order. Make the Ss do this task individually, then check their answers in pairs. Answers：
1 Long ago, people in Africa said it was dangerous to walk alone in the forest near the coast.
2 Kunta was caught in the forest one day.
3 He was hit on the head.
4 He was tied up and carried to a small boat.
5 He was then chained up in a castle.
6 He heard some women and children crying.
7 A few days later he was put on a sailing ship.
8 He was chained up in the ship.
9 The ship sailed for two months.
10 The ship arrived in a port.
11 About a third of the black people had lost their lives.
Step 6 Discussion
SB Page 8, Part 3. The purpose of this task is to get Ss to think about and interpret what they have just read. Get the Ss to discuss these questions in pairs or groups of four. Ask for some answers from the class at the end. Possible answers：
1 Where he was being taken, why he was being taken, what was going to happen to him, etc.
2 No, because of the phrase “Another, whoselanguage Kunta understood”. (There are hundreds of different African languages.)
3 He was caught and carried away by black men whom he expected would usually help him.
4 To catch black men.
5 If women were caught and became slaves as well as men, they would produce babies (young slaves).
6 So that they could not try to jump off the ship.
7 Terrible ---- no light; food and water once a day only; nothing to lie on except hard boards; diseases and death.
8 To carry upstairs the bodies of people who had died and to throw them into the sea over the side of the ship.
9 Kunta thought that the sailors came down to carry sick men upstairs for treatment.
10 About 94. A third of the original 140 black people had died. In fact the exact number of black people who arrived in America on this ship alive was 98.
