KEY CONCEPTS
FOCUS STRUCTURES:
As for me, I'm going to choose the most fun and exciting job in the world.
Step 1: Present
INDEPENDENT/PAIR/CLASS WORK: Think About It
1)Ask the students to work independently and write down their answers to the Think About It questions.
2) Have the students share their answers with a partner and then the class.
3)As a class, make a list of possible future jobs and discuss what it takes to succeed.
EXAMPLE:
What do you need to do to succeed 1. Know what your skills and talents are.
2. Choose a job that interests you and suits your talents.
3. Come up with a plan that will help you get that job.
4. Follow your plan and do NOT doubt yourself. 5. Be confident and focused, and you will succeed.
Step 2: Read
GROUP WORK: Let's Do It! No.1
1)Instruct the students to read Lesson 55 and complete the exercise in groups of four.
2)Discuss the answers as a class and go over the mastery words and phrases for this lesson.
Step 3: Practice and Play
PAIR WORK: Let's Do It! No.2
1) Instruct the students to find all the words in the word search and write them down.
2)Then have the students play Translation Match Up using the words they found in the word search. 3)Divide the class into pairs. Each pair of students should have an English-Chinese dictionary to complete this task.

LANGUAGE NOTES
1. Look into the Future展望未來
look into在此處的意思是“觀察”。它還有“朝里面看；調查；瀏覽（書籍、資料等）”的意思。例如：
I noticed Tom looking into a shop window.我注意 到湯姆正在往商店的櫥窗里看。
The police are looking into the accident.警方正在 調查那起事故。
You'd better look into the novel, and get its main idea.你最好翻閱一下這部小說，了解其主題思想。2. What do you want to be when you grow up, Jenny？詹妮，長大后你想干什么？
grow up的意思是“長成；成熟；發展”。例如：The little girl has grown up to be a beautiful woman. 那個小女孩已經長成了美麗的女人。
China's agriculture is growing up quickly. 中國的農 業正在快速發展。
3. I love to travel, and it would be fun to fly an airplane.我喜歡旅行，開飛機旅行會很有趣。
I want to be a boss and manage a big company. I could make a lot of money. 我想當老板管理一家大 公司。我會賺很多錢。
I'd like to be a transportation engineer. I would invent things that help improve the environment. Maybe I could invent a solar powered plane.我想要 當運輸工程師。我將發明有助于改善環境的交通工具。或許我會發明太陽能飛機。
以上句子中的could，would都是表示推測的情態動詞。表示推測的情態動詞，其所指時間幾乎總是“現在”，即說話人的主觀看法總是以現在時間為基點的。它們所表示的可能性大小，一般說來might 最低，must最高，由低到高的順序大致是：might(可能)→may(可能)→could(可 能)→can(可能)→should(應該會)→ought to(必然)→would(會)→will(會)→must(一 定）。說話人推測的事件所發生的時間，要根據不定式所采取的形式而定，可以是現在時間和過去時間，也可以是將來時間。一般說來，情態動詞之后的不定式若不是完成式，則表示現在時間或將來時間。例如：
He must be there.(=I'm sure(that) he is there.)他 一定在那里。
Our team might win the race. (=It is possible that our team will win the race.)我們隊可能在賽跑比 賽中獲勝。
He must be there.(=I'm sure(that) he is there.)他 一定在那里。
Our team might win the race. (=It is possible that our team will win the race.)我們隊可能在賽跑比 賽中獲勝。
He must be working at the office. (=I'm sure that he is working in the office.)他一定正在辦公室里工作。 4. Well, I don't doubt you would be a good boss, but I don't think wealth is the most important thing in life.我肯定你會是一位好老板，但我認為錢不是生活中最重要的。
doubt后接賓語從句時，如主句為肯定句，用whether 或if連接；如主句為否定句或疑問句，用that連接。在這樣的結構中，doubt的意思是“懷疑，不相信，不信任；不能肯定，對···沒準兒”。例如：
I doubt whether/if he is clever.我懷疑他是否聰明。 I don't doubt that he will be successful.我肯定他會成功。
Do you doubt that I love you 我愛你，對此你有 懷疑嗎？
doubt 在肯定句中也可接 that 引導的賓語從句，此時它的意思是“認為···未必可能”。例如：I doubt that Danny will be a good boss.我看丹尼未 必會當個好老板。
5. As for me, I'm going to choose the most fun and exciting job in the world.至于我，我打算選擇世 界上最有趣、最激動人心的工作。
as for的意思是“至于；關于”。例如：
As for the thief, he was caught by the police.至于 那個小偷，他被警察抓住了。
As for my achievement, I have much to say.關于我 的成就，我有很多要說的。
6. Astronauts need to know a lot about science, Danny.丹尼，宇航員需要懂得很多（知識）。
lot在本句中用作名詞，a lot的意思是“大量：許多”。表示“大量（許多··）”時，后接of短語，of后的名詞既可以是可數名詞，也可以是不可數名詞。例如：
He has a lot (of things) to do today.今天他有很多 事要做。
She has a lot of money.她有很多錢
These boys get lots in common.這些男孩子有許多 共同之處。
There's lots of juice left.還剩下很多果汁。 There are lots of bottles on the table.桌子上放著許多瓶子。
a lot還可以用作副詞，可以修飾形容詞和副詞的
比較級。例如： Thanks a lot.多謝。
He waited a lot when he saw the doctor.他看病時 等了很久。
The patient felt a lot better.病人覺得好多了。 I am a lot taller than your brother.我比你弟弟高多 了
