HARRY POTTER
Introduction JK Rowling is a writer who writes about magic and strange creatures. She has ,written a series of books about Harry Potter, a boy with a scar on his forehead and a secret past. The books are about magic and fantastic adventures, but they still teach us about real life.
Harry's parents are dead and he lives a miserable life with a family who treats him badly. His life changes when he finds out that he is a wizard and has been invited to study at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
The students at Hogwarts learn about magic, but Harry also learns about life and friendship and begins to understand who he really is.
Harry's adventures at Hogwarts teach him that it is difficult to be brave and know what to do. He discovers that it is often difficult to do the right thing and he realizes that we must have friends and stay true to who we are if we are to be successful and happy.
Instruction Tell the students to read through the text to work in pairs or groups to go over the underlined words. Tell them to ask each other questions like Do you know what... means? or Have you learnt...? If no one knows the meaning of a certain word, the students can use a dictionary or ask the teacher for help.
Ask the students to find sentences with the attributive clause.
Ask the students to reread the summary of the Harry Potter book in the text. Ask them to choose one of the events (e.g. Harry at home, being treated badly by the family he is living with; Harry getting the news about Hogwarts; Harry arriving at Hogwarts; one of the adventures, etc.) and work in pairs and groups to write a story about it. They can act out the story first and then try to write it down. This should make for a fun class activity, and at the same time it will help the students read and once and underline all unknown words. Ask the students understand the summary. You can also ask the students to write a summary of a book or movie they like.

Answers to Exercises 2 and 3:
These two exercises are about word formation. Knowing how a word is constructed makes learning and understanding new vocabulary easier.
-al is a suffix, which is added after the stem. It changes the part of speech of a stem word, but not its meaning. fore- is a prefix, meaning before, in front of
forearm: the part of the arm between the wrist and the elbow.
foreman: a man who serves as the leader of a work crew, as in a factory.
foresee: to see or know beforehand
foresight: ability to realize the importance and nature of events before they have happened
forefinger: the finger next to the thumb, also called "index finger" or "first finger"
forefather: an ancestor or a person who lives in earlier times
forename: a name before one's surname; a first name forerunner: an ancestor; or one that comes before and indicates the approach of another
foretell: to tell about something beforehand; predict
foreword: an introductory note, as for a book, especially by a person other than the author
From the words above, the students can see the importance of word formation in learning English vocabulary. However, it is not necessary to have them memorize those words.
4. GRAMMAR
The Attributive Clause
The Attributive Clause is also known as the Relative Clause. There are two main types of relative clauses:
The Restrictive (or defining) Clause gives important information to know what we are talking about.
The Non-restrictive (or non-defining) Clause gives extra (additional) information.
Compare these sentences:
A She is the woman whose son died in the war.
B Mary, who is probably the best student in class, wants to become a scientist.
C John F Kennedy, who was shot dead in Dallas, was the youngest American president in history.
D The doctor whom I went to see was a relative of my father's.
In two of the sentences (A, D), the relative clauses tell us which person is being talked about while the non-defining relative clauses just tells us more about the person who is already identified.
The subject and object in each sentence are joined by a relative pronoun (e.g. who, which, what, where, that, when, etc). The choice of relative pronouns depends on the topic of the subject.
e.g. Who(m) = people, Where = place, Which = thing, Why = reason, When = time, That = living beings or non-living beings, Whose = of people or things
Possible answers:
Various answers are possible, since the sentences are based on the students' answers to the questions in brackets.
1 E-mail is fast and cheap.
Many people use e-mail, which is fast and cheap, to make friends.
2 Hiking is inexpensive and full of adventure.
They often go hiking, which is inexpensive and full of adventure.
3 The earthquake took place in Gansu Province.
In the earthquake, which took place in Gansu Province, a number of people died.
4 The painter's name is Leonardo da Vinci.
The world-famous painter, whose name is Leonardo da Vinci, painted Mona Lisa.
5 The villagers were building a school.
The villagers, who were building a school, discovered an ancient tomb.

2. LISTENING
Introduction Toni Morrison (1931- ). Toni Morrison grew up in a working-class family in Ohio. When Morrison was a child, her parents and other relatives would often tell her stories and encourage her to explore the literary riches of African American culture. She published her first novel, The Bluest Eye, in 1970; other novels include Sula (1973), Song of Solomon (1977), Tar Baby (1981), Beloved (1987) and Jazz (1992). Morrison's novels are influenced by African American storytelling and her stories reflect the experience of African Americans, especially women, who try to deal with the many difficulties of an unjust society. Morrison received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1993. Instruction Tell the students to listen to the tape and fill in the information. The second part is a story that Morrison told her audience when she received the Nobel Prize. Ask the students to listen to the story and complete the tasks.
LISTENING TEXT:
A WOMAN OF WORDS
Part 1
Toni Morrison is a well-known American writer. When she was a young girl, she discovered that it wasn't always easy to be a black person in America. Her family supported her. Later, she told a reporter that her parents used to say that "all things are possible and don't let anybody tell you that you can't do something." But the support of her family did not change the way the world was. Toni Morrison's early life was difficult. She had a gift - a rich and beautiful imagination - but she never imagined that she would one day become a writer and a Nobel Prize winner.
Toni Morrison became a writer when she was about twenty-nine years old. Her life at that time was difficult and unhappy. She once told a reporter that "I had no will, no power, no self, I only had a love for words and the hope that was inside them." Morrison's novels and stories are often about pain and suffering, but they always show the joy and beauty of life. About the meaning of life, Morrison says "We live and we die, but we do language. That may be the measure of our lives."
Part 2
In 1993, Toni Morrison won the Nobel Prize for Literature. She began her Nobel speech by telling a simple story. .
Once upon a time there was an old woman, blind but wise. She was known to be the wisest person in the town. One day the woman is visited by some young people who seem to want to show that the woman is not as wise as everybody says. Their plan is simple: they come to her house and ask her a simple question that they know she won't be able to answer, because she is blind. They stand before her, and one of them says, "Old woman, I hold in my hand a bird. Tell me whether it is living or dead."
She does not answer, and they ask again, "Is the bird I am holding living or dead?"
Still she doesn't answer. She is blind and cannot see her visitors, let alone what is in their hands. She does not know who they are or where they come from. 'she only knows what they want to do. The old woman's silence is so long that the young people cannot help laughing.
Finally she speaks. "I don't know," she says. "I don't know whether the bird you are holding is dead or alive, but what I do know is that it is in your hands. It is in your hands."
Her answer can be taken to mean: if it is dead, you have either found it that way or you have killed it. If it is alive, you can still kill it. Whether it is to stay alive, it is your decision.
Answers to the exercises:
1 1 C
2 Her gift was her rich and beautiful imagination.
3 "I had no will, no power, no self. I only had a love for words and the hope that was inside them. "
"We live and we die, but we do language. That may be the measure of our lives."
2 1 The young people ask the blind woman if she knows whether the bird they are holding is dead or alive. They ask her the question because they want to show others that the woman isn't as wise as they say she is. Since the woman is blind and cannot see the bird, she cannot answer this very simple question.
2 The woman says that she doesn't know whether the bird is alive or not, but that she does know that it is in their hands. Her answer can be taken to mean several things. The suggestion on the tape is that her answer means "if it is dead, you have either found it that way or you have killed it. If it is alive, you can still kill it. Whether it is to stay alive, it is your decision."
Encourage the students to think of other possible meanings.
3 Various answers are possible.
4 Various answers are possible.
3. TALKING
Introduction In this activity, the students will practise telling a simple story based on one of the pictures in the book (or other pictures). The activity is a continuation of the main theme of the unit and part two of the listening activity above, in which Toni Morrison tells a story.
Instruction Each picture contains several visual clues that the students can use to get started (e.g. the woman in the first picture is holding a flower: who gave her the flower? Is she going to give the flower to someone? Is he waiting for someone? The second picture shows a man and a dentist: what happened? Why is the man crying? The third picture shows a girl in bed, watching a leaf on the tree outside her bedroom window. Who is the girl? Is she sick? Why is she watching th_ leaf? What is she thinking? The fourth picture shows a man on an island: why is he there? Is he alone? The fifth picture shows a man carrying a computer: what is he doing with the computer? Why is the window broken? Who is the man outside the window? The sixth picture shows a girl using a computer: what is she doing? Who is the other woman?). If the students find it difficult to get started, the teacher can write similar questions about one of the pictures and ask the students to answer the questions. The teacher can then use the students' answers to tell a simple story and tell the students to try on their own with another picture.

BOOK MAGIC
Introduction The text compares realism and fantasy writing and discusses the roles of the writer and reader.
The text emphasizes that realism and fantasy are, after all, both fiction, and that the line between illusion and reality is not always clear. The text also suggests that readers often act as the real writers of what they read, since they construct the reality of the story and bring the story to life in their minds.
Answers to the exercises:
Fantasy stories Realistic stories Both
● Strange creatures.
● Magic things can happen.
● The world in the book is not
always like the real world. ● Real people.
● Real things happen.
● The world in the book is like the real world. ●Tell us about life.
●Tell us about things that happen.
●Describe a world.
2 Various answers are possible. Let the students start by listing the normal assumption, i.e. that writers write, readers read, and that the writer knows the meaning, etc. Some students may immediately raise questions and the text has already mentioned the issues, in which case you may wish to ask for reasons and try to get a debate or discussion going. Once the students have described the normal situation; ask them to use the text and their own thinking to think of reasons for challenging or expanding these common assumptions about books, writers, and readers and the acts of reading and writing.

MARTIN AND THE MOHUN
This was the first time Martin had seen a mohun. He had read about them in school, of course, but he was not prepared for what he saw. And smelled! The creature was nearly three metres tall, very fat, and its hair was a disgusting green colour that made Martin think of food that had been left in the fridge for too long. He tried to cover his nose with his hands, but the creature's smell was too strong. Martin felt sick. He didn't know what to do. The creature held out its hand - one of six - and Martin felt that he must say something. "Er, how do you do?"
The creature smiled and showed three large red teeth. Martin was scared. It looked like the mohun was going to eat him! He knew that mohuns were supposed to be friendly, but he had also heard stories about mohuns that liked to do bad things. Well, he thought, this mohun is smiling, so maybe it is friendly. "I am looking for my friend," he said. "Have you seen a young girl with short hair?"
The mohun thought for a minute. "Yes," it said, "I saw a young girl yesterday. She was very nice. She helped me brush my teeth and she told me a funny story. She said that she was going to the lake." Martin thanked the mohun and left, happy to get away from the horrible smell. Mohuns, he thought, are not so bad after all. If only they wouldn't smell so bad!
