人教版高中英语必修3Unit 3“The Million Pound Bank Note”（Writing）课件.pptVIP

It sounds difficult to write a play, even a small part of it sounds difficult. Writing a play or drama is quite different from writing a story. The main purpose of a play is to let the characters speak for themselves as much as possible. How actors show us what the characters think and feel is also important. Suppose you are the director of this play. Write your own scene for this play with a partner. Act One, Scene 5 Henry is smiling as he leaves the restaurant. As he is walking down the street, he sees a sign for a place that cuts hair. He decides to get it cut. H: Good afternoon, I’d like to get a cut, if I may.

R: You’re THAT Mr Adams! Well, I’m glad I waited or I might never have known it was you. B: Why, Mr Adams, please don’t worry!(wearing a big smile) Nothing to worry about! Nothing at all!
