The sample passage:
In 2002, I went to Hong Kong by plane with my family to go sightseeing. Because it was the first time that I had taken the plane, I felt dizzy and uncomfortable. I didn’t want to eat anything but only wanted to vomit. While I was not feeling well, the airhostess came to me and gave me a plastic bag, a cup of water and a towel. After I vomited, she took the dirty bag away and asked me to have a good rest. I was very thankful to her. On the trip, although I was uncomfortable, I was very happy.

1. Ask students to do the rest activities in the workbook.
2. Ask students to summarize what we have learnt in this module and preview the next.
Grammar
I. The Indefinite Article and the Definite Article
冠词是用在名词前面，帮助说明名词所指的人或事物，是泛指还是特指的词。冠词是一种虚词。冠词分不定冠词（The Indefinite Article）和定冠词（The Definite Article）a, an是不定冠词，the是定冠词。
不定冠词
an, a是不定冠词，仅用在单数可数名词前面，表示“一”的意义，但不强调数目观念。a用在以辅音（指辅音音素）开头的词前， an用在以元音（指元素音素）开头的词前，如：
a boy an hour
a history class an island
a university an elephant
a hero an old man
不定冠词的用法：
1. 表示人或事物的某一类
A steel worker makes steel.
A plane is a machine that can fly.
2. 表示某一类人或事物中的任何一个。
This is an apple.
His father is a teacher.
3. 泛指某人或某物，但不具体说明何人何物。
A comrade is waiting for you downstairs.
I met an old man on my way to school.
4. 表示“一个”的意思
He will be back in a day or two.
He tried to send a picture of a face.
5. 有时也表示 “每”的意思
We have three meals a day.
我们一日三餐。
He walks ten miles an hour.
他一小时走10英里。
We have six classes a day.
我们一天上六节课。
He drives the car at thirty miles an hour.
他驾车的速度是一小时三十英里。
如果把不定冠词后的名词变为复数，只把不定冠词去掉还不行，还得补上一个数词或不定代词（some, any）
The plan will be ready in a few days.
这是因为“一个”或“某个”变为复数时，就成为“几个”或“某几个”的缘故。
定冠词
定冠词the具有确定的意思，用以特指人或事物，表示名词所指的人或事物是同类中的特定的一个，以别于同类中其他的人或事物，相当于汉语中的“那个”或“这个”的意思。它可以和单、复数名词，也可以和不可数的名词连用。
定冠词的基本用法：
