T: (A few minutes later,) Stop reading, please. First of all, who can tell me what rhyme mean?

S: Rhyme is sameness of sound between words or syllables, especially the endings of lines of verse.

S: No, the sounds of poor & door are not the same.

T: Very good! Sometimes the letters may be the same in English spelling, but words may still not thyme. How about this poem? Who’d like to come to the blackboard to write down the pairs of words that rhyme?

S: It tells us what kind of people a real friend should be.

T: Quite right! Now let’s read the poem together with the tape, paying more attention to the right rhythm.

The Ss are doing some reading aloud.

T: Now, let’s discuss the real meaning of friend and friendship in groups of 4. Please give your opinions frankly and actively.

T: Now, I want to know how you think of the meaning of friends and friendship. Who can give your opinions for the whole class?

S1: I think so. Friendship is one of the greatest pleasures that people can enjoy. We can live without a brother, but not without a friend. It is very difficult to find a better definition of friendship. But I think one of the best ways to keep friendship is to return it.

S2: In my opinion, everybody needs friends, someone you can share the bad times as well as the good times with. Someone you can turn to for help or advice, or someone who can assist you when you are trouble. This is a friend.

S3: I agree with a friend in need is a friend indeed. A good thing in life is the encouragement of a friend. A life without a friend is a life without a sun. Friends are very important to any person.

S4: That’s exactly my opinion. The meaning of friendship is respect, which is the base of the friendship. If you do not respect others, they will not respect you either. And they are not fond of you. For example, a teacher thinks his students as immature and forces them to finish their homework which he assigned. When they can not finish them in time, he blames them loudly in front of their classmates. The students will become afraid of their teacher. There will be no friendship between them. If you want to make friends to others, respect them first.

S5: I quite agree with you. Real friendship is a rare and precious gift, strong, stable, yet fragile, and never to be taken for granted.

S6: That’s correct. Friendship, in my mind, means having people who you know will help you if you are ever in trouble. I think it’s also people who you feel you can actually tell things to and they will listen. I think friendship is more important that anything else in my life.
