a)Background information
Saint Augustine has said that the world is like a book, if you stay at home instead of traveling, it seems that you just stare at one page of a book. From his words we can see traveling is as important as reading for us. Nowadays, it becomes a hot topic all around the world. Our country encourages visitors to travel because it can do a world of good for the economic. So of course, we can’t neglect this popular topic in our English textbook. Generally speaking, when the English teacher begins this unit, the National Day Holiday is just coming near. So it is necessary and essential to provide the students with enough information about travel. On one hand, compared with the western people, our Chinese people’s awareness of the importance of travel fall much behind. On the other hand, some challenges and problems arise while traveling. More and more people travel not only for pleasure and study but also for environment and unusual experience.
b) Analysis of the material of this unit.
As we know, the center topic –travel is a popular and modern concept. In short it follow the main future of the new textbook, that is, novelty. In the part of warming up, there are three requirements. The first one is to draw the students’ attention to think about some travel manners and behaviors and improve the awareness of protecting the environment. The second one is to talk about the consideration and preparation before traveling as a form of an open question. And the last part is to choose the proper means of transportation. There are four different routes for the students to choose. Different people may have different opinions. So it can activate the students to think hard and speaking at their own will. In the listening part, there are two parts. The first part has something to do with the boarding call, which keeps close to our real life. So it can broaden the students’ scope and knowledge. On the other hand, the design of the exercise for the information gap can train the students listening ability for specific information. The second part is about five world travelers’ talking. It is more difficult for the students because of the implied meaning in their talking. It not only needs some good listening technique such as note-taking but also a quick and responsive mind. The form is to fill the table according to three questions. So the key and difficult points of this period is to stimulate the interest of the students and to do the listening exercises. At the same time, I will show the students some important language input. In order to achieve such goal, I will use computer and radio as my teaching aids.

2. Teaching objectives
At the beginning of this unit, it will take much time to stir students to talk freely and liven the atmosphere of the class. We know listening is more likely to be disturbed by lacking of information about the material. Then it needs to supply some relevant knowledge. So in order to fulfill the task of this unit, I figure out the following objectives:
a) Knowledge objective
First, Ss will be asked to list some places of interest in Beijing and learn some new words and expressions such as instead of, consider, means of transportation, boarding call, destination and so on. These information and knowledge can do great help in the following steps. Students will also learn how to select the proper means of transportation for their journey and tell the considerations for their choice.
b)Ability objective
Ss should be the masters of t
