Step 1. Revision
Ss try to complete the summary of the passage with the words from the text.
Summary: parks provide people with a place to amuse themselves and to escape their busy life for a while. In recent decades, however, many parks have been designed to provide entertainment. We call them theme parks. The new parks are usually huge places and have a variety of things to see and do. Theme parks have a certain idea –a certain theme – that the whole park is based on. For example, a sport theme park will offer visitor sports to play or watch; a history or colture theme park will let us see how our ancestors dressed, worked and lived. The oldest theme park in the world is Disneyland. It seemed like a place of fantasy. Besides these, we have the marine or ocean parks, the science theme parks and so on to let us enjoy totally different experience from the real world.
