(教师通过这个问题来呈现本课新单词。)

T: I feel happy because you have grown up. But I feel disappointed, too. Because I always dream of you these days, and in those dreams we went back to the past. We went for a walk on the seaside together. When I awake, I can’t see you. Then I will feel anxious and come back to school in a hurry. I want to get to school quickly and stay with you for ever.
