Step 1.. Revision and lead in
Select some words and phrases often used in spoken English, then point out informal English expressions ① An informal letter: Dear Mr. Lee,
I am so sorry that I cannot come to the dinner you and Mrs. Lee are giving next Saturday for your brother because of a previous engagement that evening.
I do appreciate your asking me and hope that I will have the opportunity to meet your brother on some other occasion in the near future. ② To judge which is the better expression: 1.(To a professor you first meet)
□ ----- Hi, Bob. Fancy meeting you here. ( Too familiar and informal. ) □ ----- Good morning , Mr. Mosley. How are you? 2. (To a close friend)
□ ----- Mr. Wells, would you be kind enough to pass me the salt? ( There is no need to be so formal.)
□ ----- Could you possibly pass me the salt? ( There is no need to be so formal.)
□ ----- Pass me the salt, Jack .
③ Read the following sentence and find which part you think is informal. I am sorry to say that a lot of your answers to those questions in your homework are not precise, so you must think about them. Then ask students to present some other examples. Formal and informal English Formal English Informal English a large amount/number of a lot of arrange sort out child kid

take my concerns into consideration think about it Step 2. Presentation
1. Ask students to read the introductions to formal and informal English .Formal English is more common in writing, while informal English is more common in speaking.
2. Ask students to the formal English words with the informal English words listed in the chart on page 26. Step 3 Practice
Ask students to practice what they have learnt above.
First point out the informal places while they are reading the letter. Then rewrite the letter in formal English. Answers: Dear Mr. Smith,
I want to speak to you about the condition of the playground. I regret to inform you that people do not discard their rubbish properly. They leave rubbish on the ground instead of using the bins. Yesterday a 6-year-old child fell and cut his hand on a broken bottle. The boy was taken to hospital immediately. In addition, the beautiful view of the park is spoiled.
I believe that there are a large number of actions you could take to solve this problem. For example, you should purchase additional litter bins and arrange security to prevent people from littering.
It is my hope that you will take my concerns into consideration. I look forward to your reply. Yours sincerely, Jerry Broker Step 4 Word power ( Group work )
