1a Looking and writing
Hello, class. On page 34 is a picture with many things in it. Write the things you see in the correct columns in the chart.
1b Listening and matching
You are going to listen and match on page 34 each person with a thing and a reason. Pay attention to the use of MUST in the sentences.
Tapescript

Boy 1: It must be Carla’s. She loves volley ball.
Girl 2: Oh, that toy car must belong to Jane’s little brother. He was the only little kid at the picnic. And the magazine must belong to Dengwen. He loves cats.

In pairs practice the conversation in the picture on page 34

Whose volleyball is this? It must be Carla’s. She loves volleyball.
Whose books are these? They must be Mary’s. The man is her favorite author.
Whose CD is this? It must be Grace’s. She likes listening to classical music.

2a Listening and writing
Bob and Anna found a backpack outside their school gate. Listen to their conversation and write down the things found in the backpack. Pay attention to the uses of modeal verbs making inferences.
Tapescript
Bob: Oh, look! Whose backpack do you think this is?
Anna: I don’t know. Look, here’s a school T-shirt.
Bob: Well then, the person must go to our school. Oh! Here is a hair band, so the person can’t be a boy.
Anna: It could be Kumi’s hair band. She has long hair.
Bob: Or the hair band might belong to Linda. She was at the picnic, wasn’t she?
Anna: Yes, she was. But then the backpack could belong to Rita. She’s always forgetting things.
Bob: Then it must be Linda’s backpack. She has long hair and she’s on the tennis team.
Bob: You’re right!
2b Listening and filling
Next you are to listen to the tape once again. Fill in the blanks with modal verbs you hear used to making inferences.
2c Filling and telling
On page 35 is a chart in which you will see 8 sentences. A word is missing from each sentence. Fill in a word from this unit.
The notebook must be Ming’s. It was on her desk.
The homework can’t be Carol’s. She wasn’t at school today.
The soccer ball might be John’s or Tony’s. They both play soccer, don’t they?

3a Reading, numbering and circling
On page 36 you see a box. In it is a thank-you message from Linda to Anna. Read it, number the 5 parts and circle the words you don’t know.
Subject: Thanks! From: Linda
_④_ If you have any idea where it might be, please call me.
_②_ I think I dropped it during the concert so it might still be in the symphony hall.
_⑤_ I tried to call you but your mom said you were still at your optometrist appointment ( I hope you new glasses look nice!).
_③_ I really need it because I have a math test on algebra tomorrow. It’s crucial that I study for it because it counts 30% to the final exam.
_①_ I’m really anxious, because I can’t find my backpack.
Thanks,
Linda
