Suggested answers:

1.TV,plays and computer games all have charecters playing different roles and acting out a story.

2.TV shows and plays both tell a story.We can watch actors perform the action of the story and they also speak lines written like the dialogue in a play.

T:OK.You are right.In the text,perhaps there are a few sentences which are hard to understand.Look at the screen.

1.I don't like plays that much.

2.Since we do know a lot about plays,why don't we try writing a play of our own.

3.…writing a simple play is not that difficult,and besides,we have to start somewhere if we want to learn how to write plays.

4.…we might come up with a very good story.

T:Please pay attention to the words and phrases underlined.In the first sentence,“that”means“so”.In the second sentence,“do”is used to emphasize;“try writing”means:attempt and do sth. as a possible way.And in the third sentence,“besides”is also adverb and means“also,in addition”.In the last sentence,“come up with”means“think of;produce”.Now do you understand them?(Ss:Yes.)Look at some examples on the screen.

Sample answers:

1.TV shows,computer games and plays all have particular scenes.But the characters and stories in TV shows look more real while the ones in plays are boasted.The ones in computer games are imagined.

2.In real life we can act different roles,such as,a student,a son,a daughter,a brother,a sister and so on.Different roles act in different ways.

3.I agree life is like theatre.I think theatre comes from life and it is a reflection of life.But at the same time theatre is boasted.
