step ii listening to the material on page 7
there are three tasks in this step: the first listening, the second listening and the third listening. teachers should ask students to glance the whole exercises before listening, so that they can realize what is the main task in listening.
task 1 the first listening
t: hello, everyone! glad to meet you. these days the topic we are talking is important women & great women. we know women can achieve the same as
men. but they have many difficulties in doing this. today we'll have three listening materials to listen. the first one tells us some particular problems, which women have when they want a career of their own. the structure of this material is very clear. it is organized by the first, second and third paragraph. so when you listen for the first time, try to get the general idea of the material and think which sentences are the main ideas of the three paragraphs. now let's listen for the first time. play the tape for the first time for students to get the main ideas of the paragraphs. and then ask students to try to retell what they have heard. it doesn't matter whether they
are some details, such as words or sentences, or they are some main ideas. because the purpose of doing this is to let students know they have caught some information. everything is ok.
