Procedure (33-43 minutes)
"2020"/"2050" -- What will the world be like? (Let the students talk for a while)
T will stand in front of the board and show some pictures of robots and Doctor Evans. Then, the teachers will try to get the students to tell me the name of the Doctor, without any hints. Afterwards, I will ask them a few questions about robots and interviews. The next step is to give them lists of topics and they will talk for some time about what topics they are interested in and what they think will be in the interview with Doctor Evans. If they don't have any ideas, I will walk around the class and show them what some of the answers are.
Ss will listen to the interview Instructions: OK, I would like you to listen to this CD because there's an activity in the book that wants you to decide if the sentences are True or False. You can listen in pairs, if you want.
Give them the HO (one per pair)
Listen and decide True or False. a. T, b. F, c. F, d. T, e. F, f. F
Give them the collocations -- they need to put them together. Feedback: ask a lot of CCQs to help them understand the collocations.
Group discussion about whether they agree with Dr. Evans' predictions or not. Make sure that they use all the vocabulary that they learned. Interrupt them regularly to correct errors.
