Discovering useful words and expressions
第一步：核对表格内容和填空练习的答案；
第二步：两人活动，一个同学说出单词的英文解释，另一同学说出相对应的单词；
第三步：填空题由学生念出答案。以列为单位，一人念一句，这样不仅可以调动同学们的课堂参与积极性，还可以培养他们断句的能力，加强写作中的衔接意识；
Discovering useful structures
第一步：学生读下列句子并找出规律：
The mines where I got a job were 9km from my home.
The reason why I got a job was because of my hard work.
The time when I joined the ANC Youth League was late at night.
The government building where we voted was very grand.
The date when I arrived was the 5th August.
五句中关系副词 where, why, when 都可以用介词加关系代词来替换，如
The mines in which I got a job were 9km from my home.
The reason for which I got a job was because of my hard work.
The time at which I joined the ANC Youth League was late at night.
The government building in which we voted was very grand.
The date on which I arrived was the 5th August.
第二步：学生找出课文中的定语从句，并分析每句的关系代词或关系副词的使用情况，看看自己是不是对每句话的关系词的选择都无异议，如有问题，可跟同桌讨论；
第三步：师生一起分析本文中出现的定语从句，挑出一些比较难理解句子一起探讨。如：
Today we have reach a stage where we have almost no rights at all.
We were put in a position in which we had either to accept we were less important, or fight against the Government.
第四步：教师指导学生归纳定语从句的语法，尤其是由关系副词引导的定语从句；（可由关系代词 who, that, which, whom；关系副词where, when, how, why 等引导并简要概括何时用关系代词何时用关系副词）
第五步：学生完成 Exercise 2 并核对答案；
第六步：做 Exercise 3 的游戏，活跃课堂气氛，以了解学生对定语从句的掌握程度。
