　　ask the students to check their writings with each other.
　　t: good morning / afternoon, boys and girls! please check your writings with each other first.
　　step ii warming up
　　ask the students to talk about the pictures then discuss the two questions on page 136.
　　t: look at the first four pictures on page 136 please. work in pairs and talk about the four different jobs, including their duties and responsibilities.
　　sample dialogues:
　　s1: the barbers are busy cutting hair for their customers. as barbers, in my opinion, they should have friendly personalities and fashionable oppearances. what’s more, they should have good cutting skills and are always ready to design various haircut styles. only in this way can they satisfy the different customers.
　　s2: yes. please look at picture 2. a waitress is standing by the table waiting for the guests politely and we can see that she is making an obeisance by crossing one hand with the other before her chest. it’s important for her to keep a smile and be attentive in order to offer good service to the customers. s3: i agree. in the third picture the chef in the kitchen is showing up the dishes newly prepared by him with great satisfaction. in order to make every customer have a good appetite in his restaurant, he has to be smart and creative enough to make clean and delicious food.
　　can you imagine the scene when a customer sees a fly in the soup?
　　s4: aha, i see. well, the accountant in the last picture is busy keeping accounts. she has to be very careful and honest in performing her official duties. she should be responsible for the financial affairs in the work unit and it’s her duty to always keep her hands clean.
　　offer some help as follows, if necessary.
　　t: well, from these pictures we can see that every day different people are doing different jobs and people in different fields have their own duties and responsibilities. thanks to the hard work of people from all walks of life, our society has been making progress so rapidly. do you agree? well, can you think of any other jobs besides these?
　　ask the students to answer the other three questions on page 136.
　　t: ok, let’s go on with some other questions of this part. you may talk with your partners first before we have a check five minutes later.
　　s1: i know many other jobs such as teacher, doctor, nurse, manager, shop assistant, operator, driver, and so on. i would like to be a teacher when i grow up. i’m determined to devote myself to the basic education of our country and try to train as many teenagers for professionals as i can. if necessary, i’ll be glad to go to the mountainous areas to help the poor students there. i don’t know the exact number of jobs in the world and i guess there may be several thousands jobs altogether in the world.
　　s2: besides the jobs mentioned above, i also know some other jobs like engineer, conductor, professor, inventor, judge, adventurer, traveler, businessman, bookseller, scientist, captain. i would like to become an adventurer who leads a dangerous but exciting life and can travel around to see the world and make great discoveries for human beings. i guess maybe there are more than 10,000 different jobs in the world.
　　s3: as far as i know there are many other jobs such as farmer, worker, doorkeeper, soldier, officer, guard, guide, film director, actor, actress, street cleaner, bank clerk and so on. i have always been dreaming of being an army officer like my father serving in the air force in beijing. i hope one day i can also fly a plane in the blue sky wearing uniforms and do some research for the military purposes. in my imagination, there are maybe thousands of different jobs in the world.
　　s4: there are many other jobs like instructor, writer, lawyer, detective, politician, musician, dancer, receptionist, moneylender, gymnasts, athlete, trainer, coach, policeman, postman. in the future i would like to become a great film director like steven spieberg who has created a lot of great works for us film fans. as to the last question, i think there are so many different jobs in the world that the total number may reach up to 20,000.
　　t: very good!i am glad to see that all of you have great ambitions and i sincerely hope one day your dreams will come true through your hard work. as for the last question, experts believe that there are about 40,000 different types of jobs in the world. so choosing the right one is a difficult job in itself.
　　step iii speaking
　　t: next, please look at part of the questionnaire the careers adviser gave james on page 137. i’d like you to answer the questions and then discuss the answers with your partners.
　　show the slides of the questions and then get the students to work in pairs.
　　t: now, who’d like to begin the talk? try to use the useful expressions in this lesson, please.
　　s1: let me try. i’m good at chinese painting, handwriting, folk music because i love chinese culture and have been making progress with the help of my teacher mr. lu. i’m also good at playing football and table tennis because i practise them almost every day and ＂practice makes perfect.＂ i’m not good at housework such as cooking dishes, washing clothes, cleaning the windows, sweeping the floors and dealing with waste because my parents always do everything for me and i have no chance to do it myself. i most enjoy surfing on the internet because i can get a great deal of information from it and can make many friends by chatting on the qq! i expect to be operating my own company and making a lot of money in five years’ time. from answering these questions i have learnt more about myself. i think i have to work hard because there are still many things for me to learn in order to achieve my ambition. my partner introduces many jobs to me such as chef, waiter, receptionist, shop assistant, travel guide and so on. i’m only interested in the job of the receptionist listed below. if i can’t start my own company, maybe i’ll try.
　　s2: i’m good at playing the piano, the guitar and the violin because when i was very young, i began to learn it from my uncle, a music professor in beijing. i’m also good at singing and dancing because they have something to do with music. i’m not good at communicating with others such as chatting online, discussing questions, giving advice, speaking in public and offering help to others because i always feel timid and ashamed when talking with others especially those of the opposite sex. i most enjoy staying alone in my room and doing whatever i like without being disturbed by the outside world. i expect to be designing fashionable dresses for some pop stars in five years. from the above questions i come to realize that i have to be more cheerful and open-minded in order to make my dream come true in society. my partner suggests that i can work as a worker, barber, typist, zookeeper or the mother superior. i’m not interested in doing any of the listed jobs at all and i’m determined to be a designer in the near future.
　　s3: i’m good at persuading others such as making comments and giving suggestions because i think i have a gift for logical reasoning which can easily talk people into doing whatever they should. i’m also good at playing cards, chess and video games because i often play against my brother in my spare time and i’ve learnt a lot from him. i’m not very good at speaking and writing english because i often have difficulty spelling some words and i don’t have a good knowledge of grammar. i’m not good at singing or dancing because i have a bad voice and a terrible sense of music. i’m not very good at cooking dishes because i’m not patient enough to prepare various food. i enjoy sleeping at weekends because as a senior three student, i have to work hard during the weekdays and a sound sleep can make me relaxed and energetic for the following week. i expect to be working as a careers adviser in five years’ time. now i have learnt from these questions that i have known more about my strong points and weak points. i will work hard to improve my english a lot and make best use of my advantages. my partner thinks that i’m suitable to serve as a careers adviser, a teacher or a lawyer. i agree with my partner and i have no interest for the listed jobs.
　　step iv reading & speaking
　　ask the students to do some practice work as required on page 267.
　　t: now there is little time left. let’s deal with reading and speaking on page 267. i’d like you to work in groups of four and talk about exercise 1 first. each of you should make some notes while talking.
　　ask some of the students to report their work to the class.
　　t: now, who would like to report your group’s work?
　　s1: besides the listed three ones, the other important things are: more holidays, good working conditions, good chances for promotion, wise leaders, many chances to go abroad, free meals, etc.
　　s2: the things we consider important are: good housing conditions, more spare time, free trips every month, free flats, more human rights, more prize money, more gifts for birthdays or festivals, more safety measures and so on.
　　t: good! you all have good imaginations and i hope you can find such a good job in the near future. now, do you know what an expectation means to a good job? here is frederick herzberg, a famous psychologist. we will read the passage about his theory of motivation on page 267 and then we will have a further discussion about his theory. now, please begin.
　　ask the students to discuss each of the factors on page 268.
　　t: the passage mainly tells us about the two groups called the hygiene factors and the motivation factors and how useful they are. do you agree? ok, let’s look at the content of the factors listed in exercise 3 and discuss what you think each factor means.
　　suggested answers:
　　factorsmeanings
　　working conditionsthe present state of the things needed for working.
　　eg. offices, computers, telephones, cars, air-conditioners etc.

　　growthdevelopment, increase in value, i.e. you can make progress while you are working in the company.
　　t: now, please look back at question 1 and work out how similar your list is to herzberg’s. then tell your partners which are hygiene factors and which are motivation factors on your list.
　　ask the students to read the diagram and talk about it.
　　t: next, please look at the diagram on page 268 and talk about what situations b and c would be. look carefully and pay attention to the direction of the arrows. share your decisions with your partners when you have finished.
　　check the answers.
　　s1: i think as to situation b, employees have few complaints and are highly motivated.
　　s2: in situation c, employees have a lot of complaints and are not highly motivated.
　　t: very good! so you have known much about the great theory of herzberg and when you look for a job, i am sure you will do more research about the ten factors in the companies until you find the best one.
　　step v homework
　　1. tell the other students your wishes and expectations in finding a proper job in the future.
　　2．do reading and speaking on page 267. each one will be asked to talk about the factors for a desirable job.
