Step I Lead-in
Show the following pictures on the screen.

Ss: Liu Xiang.
T: Yes, what do you know about him?
S1: He was born in Shanghai. He is tall and very handsome.
S2: He won the gold medal in the Olympic Games in 2004. We are proud of him.
S3: He is a sports man and he is good at sports.
T: Good! And do you think he is healthy?
Ss: Yes.
T: Do you want to have a body as healthy as his?
Ss: Yes.
T: OK, this class, we will talk about how to keep healthy.
Step II Discussion
T: In order to stay healthy what you should do or shouldn’t do. Fill in the table, please.
Sample answers:
should do
Shouldn’t do
Eat fruit and vegetables.
Take exercise.
Smile often.
Get up and go to bed early.
Wear warm clothes when the weather is cold.
Eat too much fat and sugar.
Sleep too long.
Get angry or feel sad often.
Play in the rain.
Drink dirty water.
Sit for a long time.
T: What do you usually do to stay healthy?
S1: I often run for half an hour at weekends.
S2: I play basketball every afternoon.
S3: My mother has always made sure that we eat healthily, and fresh fruit and vegetables are a very important part of our diet.
S4: I often listen to radio and watch TV to notice the weather forecast, so that I can change clothes. I don’t often get an illness.
T: Very good! But what do you think are the most important things you should do or shouldn’t do in order to stay healthy. Now talk about this question in groups of five. Five minutes later, a leader should be chosen from one group to speak to the class.
Show some pictures on the screen for suggestions.
Five minutes later.
T: The leader can express the opinion of your group now.
S1: We should take a lot of exercise. We think that is the most important thing. Taking exercise can make our bodies strong and we will feel energetic. People, who exercise often, seldom become ill.
S2: We think that eating healthily is the most important thing. Nowadays more and more people become fatter and fatter because they eat too much fat and they get toothache for eating too many sweet things. The food we eat affects the way our bodies work. So if we eat healthily we will feel great, too.
S3: We think that we should keep a good habit. That is the most important thing. For example, get up early and go to bed early. There is a proverb: Early to bed, early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.
S4: We should keep happy. We think that is the most important thing. Healthy mind in a healthy body. Anger, horror, sadness, all of them can affect our health. If we smile often, we will become younger.
T: Wonderful! You have done a good job. We know the importance of health and know how to keep healthy, so we should follow the advice.
T: Look at the pictures. The persons in the pictures got health problems. Work in pairs. One describes the symptoms. The other asks about it and offers help. First read the example in our book on page 8. Then make a dialogue with your partners. You can choose any health problem.

S2: Oh dear! What are you going to do?
S1: I am not going to school. I think I need a rest and some medicine.
S2: OK, you’d better stay in bed, and I will get some medicine for you. After you take the medicine, I will go to school and ask a leave for you.
S1: Thank you!
Sample dialogue 2:
Aside: Several students are playing football on the playground. Suddenly a boy falls to the ground. The other students come near.
