    Although Zhang Yuncheng has a disability which prevents him from moving without pain, he succeeded in publishing a book at the age of 25.

    2. Write the middle (the body) of the text.

    - Leave out the details.

    - Reduce the examples.

    - Simplify the descriptions.

    - Change clauses or sentences to phrases.

    - Put the main points of a dialogue in indirect speech.

    (2) Tell students that they should start a new paragraph for each new topic and that the middle may consist of two paragraphs. Ask students what the main idea of each paragraph may be.

    Possible answer

    The middle may consist of _two_ paragraphs.

    The first paragraph is about _his disability and problems caused by his disability.

    The second paragraph is about _what he does in spite of his disability and how he achieved his ambition.

    (3) Show students the sample writing. Ask students if they enjoy the writing and how they can improve the writing.

    Zhang Yuncheng has a muscle disease and very weak. He can not walk. He can’t get out of bed without help and he can not lift his arms above his head. He went to school for only one day.

    (4) Students work with their partner to write the first paragraph. Help students to use connectives and transitional phrases (過渡連接詞) so that one sentence runs smoothly to another.

    Possible answer

    Zhang Yuncheng has a muscle disease that makes him very weak. Because of his illness, he is unable to walk or even get out of bed without help. Also, he can hardly lift his arms above his head. Different from others, he went to school for only one day.

    (5) Help students to use a transitional sentence (過渡句) so that the first paragraph leads naturally to the second paragraph.

    Possible answer

    No matter how challenging life can be, Zhang Yuncheng still manages to enjoy it.

    In spite of all these difficulties, Zhang Yuncheng never gives up himself.

    (6) Prepare the students for the second paragraph. Ask students to use transitions. Remind students to simplify the description of how Zhang Yuncheng achieved his ambition. 

    Phrases students might use

    Like many other people, …

    At the same time, …

    With the help of Zhang Danuo, …

    What’s more/Besides, …

    Finally, …

    Sample answer

    In spite of all these difficulties, he never gives up himself. Like many other people, Zhang Yuncheng enjoys reading and writing. He has ambitions at the same time. He taught himself to read and write. At the age of 17, he wrote to a newspaper about his life and dreams. With the help of Zhang Danuo, an editor, Zhang Yuncheng kept writing and finally achieved his lifelong ambition to publish a book.

    3. Write a conclusion for the text. Help students to summarize what Zhang Yuncheng says in indirect speech.

    IV Consolidation

    1. Review how to summarize the text and write an article about Zhang Yuncheng.

    2. Teach students how to edit the first draft.

    Compare your first draft carefully with the original. Read it several times and look for ways to improve it. Ask questions like

    Have I included all the important points?

    Are sentences about the same topic in the same paragraph?

    Have I started a new paragraph for each new topic?

    Are any of the sentences or words unnecessary?

    Is the grammar and spelling correct?

    V Homework

    1. Write a clean, final draft of the summary.

    2. Swap your article with your partner and ask your partner if she/he can suggest ways to improve your writing.
