This story reminds us that you can never (know / see) what’s possible unless you try to make it happen. Look at the pictures in 2a and tell the story in your own words. Once upon a time, there was a man called Yu Gong. He wanted to move two high and big mountains. Another man laughed at him. But he still went on. The god was finally moved by his actions then sent two immortals moving the mountains. Role-play the conversation. Teacher: So what do you think about the story of Yu Gong? Wang Ming: I think it’s really interesting. Yu Gong found a good way to solve his problem. Claudia: Really? I think it’s a little bit silly. It doesn’t seem very possible to move a mountain. Wang : But the story is trying to show us that anything is possible if you work hard! Yu Gong kept trying and didn’t give up. Claudia: Well, I still don’t agree with you. I think we should try to find other ways to solve a problem. Wang : But what could Yu Gong do
