However, when we speak or write to our friends, we use informal language.Step 7 PresentationPresent the usage by a form.FormalInformalGreetings问候语Dear Mr / Mrs / Ms…,Ladies and gentlemanHi, Hello …Endings结束语Faithfully yours,Yours faithfullyLots of love,Yours, …Idioms习语，惯用语无have a big mouthin the soupAbbreviations缩略词无esp. Dec.…Contractions缩写式无we’ll, he’d, can’tQuestion: What are the differences between formal and informal language? (1) Different greetings(2) Different endings(3) Using idioms in informal language Idioms are phrases and sentences that do not mean exactly what they say. Even if you know the meaning of each word you see or hear, you may not understand the idiom because you don’t understand the culture behind it. e.g. It rains cats and dogs. Usually we use idioms in spoken English. They are informal. (4)Using contractions and abbreviations in informal languageContractions are short forms of words when apostrophe replace letters. e.g. we’ll, she’s, can’t. Abbreviations use only the first letters of a name or phrase, or leave out letters to shorten a word. e.g. UK, Dr They are both used in informal language. Step 8 Drills1. Improve Kitty’s letterKitty is writing to J. K. Rowling, the British writer, to tell her something about Harry Potter. Ask students to help Kitty check the language she is using and improve it if necessary.The letter:Hi!I think you’ll laugh when you read this letter. Believe it or not, there’s a real Harry Potter in the world. It’s said that it’s a lot of trouble being Harry Potter, esp. when you’re a 78-yr-old man and you happen to share the name of a world-famous boy with magic powers. The real Harry Potter often gets phone calls from both children and TV stations. “The kids want to know if I’m Harry Potter,” he says with a smile. “I tell them I’ve been Harry Potter for nearly 80 years!”However, the real Harry Potter says the Harry Potter series isn’t his cup of tea, and he doesn’t care if he’s famous or not.Love, Kitty Improvement:To Kitty, J. K. Rowling is an unfamiliar person.She shouldn’t use informal greetings or endings. She shouldn’t use contractions or abbreviations. She shouldn’t use idioms. She should sign her full name.2. Rewrite Kitty’s letter Ask students to use formal language to replace the informal ones to rewrite the letter. Then ask three students to report their letters.Answer :Dear Ms Rowling,I think you will laugh when you read the letter. You may be surprised to know that there is a real Harry Potter in the world. It is said that it is a lot of trouble being Harry Potter, especially when you are a 78-year-old man and you happen to share the name of a world-famous boy with magic power.The real Harry Potter often gets phone calls from both children and TV stations. “The kids want to know if I am Harry Potter,” he says with a smile. “I tell them I have been Harry Potter for nearly 80 years!”However, Harry Potter says that he is not interested in the Harry Potter series and he does not care if he is famous or not.Yours sincerely,Kitty ZhangStep 9 Language points1. married a French scientist called Pierre Curie in 1895 1895 年和一位名叫皮埃尔·居里的法国科学家结婚了 marry vi. & vt. 结婚 married adj.已婚的(1) be married to sb 与某人结婚 She has been married to the man for 20 years. 她嫁给这个男人20年了。(2) marry sb 与某人结婚 John married Mary last week. 上周约翰和玛丽结婚了。(3) get married 结婚 get married to sb 与某人结婚 2.
