   T: Well, now please read this short passage. （PPT 9 ）But before that, first read the phrases after me. （带读短语） 请自己来练读课文前言。

3．T: Good! Now we know Jim is not happy. Because he thinks he doesn’t do well in PE. What is his problem with his PE? ( PPT10显示问题   教problem ) Jim 在体育方面到底遇到了什么问题呢？ Let’s watch the cartoon. （播放2/3课文动画）

His friends swim faster than him.

6. T: OK. Now we know Ben is not good at running and swimming. But he does other things better. Jim’s good at English, Maths.  What else is he good at? And what’s his plan? Listen again and complete the table. 请你听课文完成表格填空。（PPT 12 ）
