Let’s see the instructions first． Read the instructions to the students． Tell them to tick （√） the right statements while they are listening． Read the three headings before playing the tape．
Play the tape the first time and the students only listen． Then play it for a second time． The students tick in the right answer boxes．
Cheek the answers．
Step Ⅳ 1c
Read the instructions to the students．
First ask a pair of the students to read the example in the box,
SA: What kind of music do you like?
SB: I like music that I can sing along with． What about you?
SA:I prefer music that has great lyrics．
Then get them to work in pairs． Answer the questions with their own preferences．
As the students do the practice, move around the classroom and give them some help． Ask several pairs of students to perform their conversations before the class．
