T：Good morning,class!
Ss：Good morning,Mrs Brown．
T：Today we are going to learn about famous plays and authors．First,I want to know what kind of plays you like．What about you,Tim?What kind of plays do you like?
TIM：Oh,I’m not sure．I don’t like plays that much．Can we talk about something else,please?I prefer watching TV and playing computer games．
T：I see．Well．some TV programmes and computer games are a bit like plays—you have characters playing different roles and acting out a story．
TIM：That’s true．When I play a computer game,I act as one of the heroes in the game．
SARAH：Yes,and some TV programmes are also like plays．They tell a story．You watch actors who act out dialogues and perform scenes．Just like in a play．
T：That’s right．Well,why don’t we try writing a play of our own?
JIM：That’s too difficult．
T：Well,writing a short play is not that difficult,and besides,we have to start somewhere if we want to learn how to write plays．You all know how to write a story,because we have read and written many stories in class．You also know how to write dialogues,because we often use dialogues in class．If we work together．we might come up with a very good story．Let’s give it a try．Who wants to start?Joy?
JOY：I know a good story．A student goes to see her grandmother who lives on the other side of town．On her way to her grandmother’s she meets an alien who takes her in his spaceship．
T：That’s great．What happens on the spaceship?
JIM：We may want to write this：the alien takes her to the future and shows her what the world will look like a thousand years from now．Then she goes back to her grandmother and tells her about the future,but her grandmother doesn't believe her．
SARAH：Could we write another story?The student is on her way to school and she meets a girl that looks exactly like her.She is scared at first,but then she asks the other girl who she is and where she is from.The other girl says that she is a clone and that she will live with the first girl’s family．
T：OK,so we have two good ideas．I'm sure we can think of many more．Joy,use your idea about the alien with your group．Write the story first and then write down the dialogue．Sarah,do the same with your story about the clone．The other groups will use their own ideas and then we will rehearse the plays and act them out．Good luck!
