((Ex 1a)) Zuerst werden die einzelnen Texte leise gelesen, dann können die Sechsergruppen darüber diskutieren, welche dieser Geschichten am plausibelsten ist. Die entsprechenden Phrasen finden Sie in der Grammar-Box oben rechts. Sollten Vokabelprobleme auftreten, so verweisen Sie Ihre Schüler/innen auf das Glossar am Ende des Textbuches.

((Ex 1b)) Die Ergebnisse dieser Einschätzung schreiben Sie an die Tafel, damit die Schüler/innen später sehen können, wie sie getippt haben.

((Ex 1c)) Mithilfe der angegebenen Seiten im Buch müssen die Schüler/innen herausfinden, welche der Geschichten auch wirklich richtig war. Wenn ein/e Schüler/in herausgefunden hat, ob eine Geschichte auch tatsächlich stattgefunden hat, wird an der Tafel ein Haken zu dieser Geschichte gesetzt.

Mary: Hey Jack! Jack: Hello Mum. We say hello. Mary: All right. Hello Jack. How was school? Jack: Fine. Mary: What are you reading? Jack: It’s a book called Chariots of the Gods, by a guy called Erich von Däniken. Mary: Oh, him! Jack: Yeah, Mum. Him. He says that we have been visited by creatures from outer space. Mary: You don’t believe that rubbish, do you? Jack: Why not? He says the Nazca Lines in Peru were designed as landing strips – like

airports – for creatures from outer space. Mary: Yes, but – Jack: They might have designed them for spaceships. You can see them from space!

What other reason can there be? Mary: Well, some people – Jack: And he says that creatures from outer space must have built Stonehenge as a

model of the solar system. Mary: Jack, look, I just don’t bel- ... Jack: And he says those fantastic standing figures on Easter Island – Mary: The Moai? Jack: – must have been built by aliens – by creatures from outer space. Mary: But there’s no science in anything he says. It’s all just made up. Jack: So? That’s just what you say. I think there are people on other planets, don’t you?



Mary: Well, that’s not easy, you see – Jack: No, come on Mum. Do you believe there are creatures out there, creatures in outer

space?

Unit 11C, Radio creates panic!, Textbook S. 92-93

((Ex 1)) A radio programme

((Ex 1a)) ((Schlüsselsymbol))

war: 3x radio: 2x


Matt: Hi Akiko Akiko: Matt! It’s so great to have you back again. Matt: Hey thanks. But you’ve managed fine without me! Akiko: Well, yes. I mean no. Well, er... Mat: Akiko? Akiko: Nothing. Did you have a good time in South Africa? Matt: Yes, it was fantastic. You should have been there. Akiko: I, er... I should have... but I couldn’t have, I mean... Matt: Relax Akiko. Only kidding. Akiko: Oh. Oh OK. Matt: What are you doing anyway? Akiko: I was looking for information about “The War of the Planets” but I can’t find it. Matt: The war of what? Akiko: Of the planets. It was a book about an invasion from outer space. Matt: Oh yes, they made a film, right? Recently. Akiko: Yes, but in school our teacher told us this story about a radio programme – like

from the 1960s or something. On the radio they told the story of the book, but it was really clever. Instead of just reading the book, they had news broadcasts.

Matt: But the story wasn’t real! Akiko: No, but they had broadcasts, like real news bulletins – as if it was real. And people

believed it! They thought that the creatures from Jupiter really were invading earth. They panicked. It was so realistic. They were sure it was true. The next day it was in all the papers.

Matt: And? Akiko: Everyone was very very angry with the programme makers. Matt: Why? Akiko: Well, people said that the actors shouldn’t have pretended it was real. They should

have told people it was just a drama. Because people might have died of heart



attacks and things like that – old people, you know. Matt: But they didn’t, did they? Akiko: I don’t know. Our teacher didn’t tell us, and I was thinking... Matt: So what was the fuss about... Akiko: And I was thinking that we could do our own programmes, you know, ‘news

bulletins from history’, something like that. Matt: Hey, that’s a great idea!

that’s a picture of me standing on our raft on the river. We built it ourselves. Mum: You shouldn’t have stood up on the raft. You might have fallen in. Molly: Actually, I did fall in! Maybe I should have worn a swimsuit. I had to run around in my

wet jeans all day. Mum: Oh Molly, you should have changed your clothes, you might have caught a cold. Molly: But I didn’t, Mum. Look this is a picture of Tim cooking on our campfire. Mum: You shouldn’t have let Tim cook! Molly: Why not? You always go on about how boys and girls are the same. Mum: Boys maybe, but Tim? He might have poisoned you all!

((Schlüsselsymbol)) Molly: Have you read that story? They say they have to move Stonehenge to another

Molly: Why not? This is a serious newspaper – they never lie – it must be true. Tim: But that’s ridiculous. You can’t move Stonehenge. Molly: But it could/might be true. Lots of things have been moved. Whole castles have

been moved to different places. Tim: Yes, it could be true, but … ah! Look at the date, Molly! Today is April the 1st. This

must be a hoax. Molly: Oh! That explains it.

((Ex 3)) The magic show


((Audioscript: WB CD Track 33))

A: Did you see that magic show yesterday evening? B: Yeah, that was way cool. How did he make that lion appear? A: I don’t know. He put the woman into the cage and then – poof – the lion was there

and she was gone. He must have used a trick. B: Of course it was a trick. But how did he do it? Maybe…. He might have hidden the

lion under the cage. A: Maybe. I can’t remember if there was space under the cage…. But where did the

woman go? Did she stay inside the cage? B: No, she can’t have hidden inside the cage. He took away all the curtains, so you

could see the whole cage. A: Well, she could have gone under the cage, where the lion was before. B: Yeah, she could have, but I wouldn’t want to squeeze past a lion. A: It must have been a very tame lion. B: Sure, but still … A: Did you see his last show, the one he did last year? B: No, I didn’t. Was it any good? A: It was great. I don’t know how he did it but the magician made the Statue of Liberty

disappear. B: No way, that must have been a TV trick. A: No, it can’t have been a TV trick. They had a huge live audience. And there were

interviews afterwards and the people couldn’t understand how he did it. B: Well, he might have put up a black screen somehow that people couldn’t see through. A: No, I don’t think so. You could still see the boats and the lights. B: Hmm, I don’t know … maybe he did something completely different. I know! He might

have turned the whole theatre around, you know, rotated it so that the audience saw a different part of the river, but not the Statue of Liberty. I’ve seen something like that before.

A: That would be really difficult. Wouldn’t people notice that they are being moved? And wouldn’t it be really expensive to build that … all for one trick?

B: I don’t know. But that’s how I would do it.

Naomi: I wasn’t worried about drowning so much. We’re all good swimmers. But when you jumped into the water you almost gave me a heart attack. You (9) could have been killed by sharks!

Noah: There aren’t many sharks around these waters. But I’m glad that the coastguard came so quickly. There wasn’t any water or food on the island. We (10) might have died if the coastguard hadn’t come.

either ...



A: I’m not overweight! B: No, but I’ve heard that it’s good for your heart to do exercise daily. That’s why we got a

dog in the first place. And now both of you sit in front of the telly all evening. A: OK, how about I register Bella at the animal gym and you and I go to the gym once a

week as well? B: Sounds good. But can’t you go together? A: No, look what the paper says: Trained exercise coordinators will run a series of group

exercise classes which will include aerobics, cardio training, weightlifting and athletics. B: Weightlifting and athletics for dogs? This can’t be serious. Let me have a look - Oh dear,

look at the date. A: Why? B: It’s April the first. A: This must be the paper’s April Fool’s Day hoax. B: A hoax? But I still think it would be a great idea for you to go to the gym once a week. You

Yasmin: Hi Archie. Archie: Hi Yasmin. Yasmin: Hey, I read an incredible story in the newspaper. Archie: So did I. Yasmin: No, but mine was about a girl called Paige? Archie: Paige? That’s a funny name for a girl. Yasmin: Is it? Maybe. But listen. The other day she went to her grandfather’s car. She was

looking for some CDs or she wanted something from the car. And by mistake she released the handbrake. The car started rolling down the hill towards the edge of the cliff.

Archie: The cliff? Yasmin: Yes. They were on holiday by the seaside. So the car was rolling down the hill

towards the edge of the cliff and Paige – the girl – managed to open the car door and jump out, just seconds before the car plunged over the cliff and into the sea.

Archie: Wow, a lucky escape! Yasmin: Yes. 2 seconds later and she would have died for sure. Archie: Well, my story’s a bit like that. A guy called Mark likes bungee jumping and he did

this incredible bungee jump from a bridge above a canyon and a big river. He jumped off a really high bridge – like a 20-storey building. He bounced up into the air. Then he started falling. And then it happened. The cord snapped and Mark plunged into the water.

Yasmin: Oh no? Was he hurt? What happened? Archie: Everyone who was watching thought ‘Oh no! He’s had it’. But apart from a bruise or

two he was OK. He climbed out of the water unhurt. Yasmin: I reckon they were both pretty lucky! Archie: Yes. I think so.

That’s a good thing. Pippa: How are you enjoying it here? Asif: OK, I guess. I miss my family – all my uncles and aunts and my cousins in

And then he’s coming out. And then the hall is on fire. That film. Asif: What are you talking about? Drew: You’re all terrorists, you are. You and your lot. Asif: Who exactly do you mean by ‘you’?

You have no right to speak to Asif like that. He’s done

nothing wrong. Drew: Asif? Nothing wrong. As if. You want to know who set that fire, ask him. Asif: What are you talking about? What have you got against me anyway? Libby: What is Drew talking about? Just look at the video. On the Internet. Of you. Walking

into the school hall. You did it! You set that fire in the school hall. Pippa: I don’t believe it. I don’t believe a word of it. Drew: You don’t have to BELIEVE it. Just watch the video.



Asif: But I didn’t do anything. There can’t be a video. Andy: Pippa went off with Asif. It’s like they’re best friends or something. She hardly

looked at me. Tracy: Well, you hardly looked at her. Andy: Come on. Let’s look at this film Drew’s talking about. I’ll just press play. Tracy: Look, there’s the playground. Andy: Yes, and there’s Asif. He’s carrying a bag. Yeah, he’s walking towards the school

hall. Tracy: What’s happening? Andy: Something wrong with the film? Tracy: No, it’s OK. Look. There he is. He’s going into the hall. He doesn’t look very happy. Andy: Hey look. The fire! Tracy: Yeah. I wish the camera wasn’t so shaky. Andy: And Asif! Look, he’s walking past the hall. His bag looks empty. He looks really

((Ex 1)) Writing a picture description

((Ex 1 Step 1))

Identisch mit WB A Unit 12/Writing corner 1/1.


This is a modern black and white drawing. You can’t see many details and the people are black silhouettes – you can’t see their faces and you can’t even say if they are men or women. The picture shows a scene from a city park. It must be a big city because in the background you can see some tall buildings. In the park there are some trees and park benches. There are three people in the park. The person in the foreground is jogging, the person on the right is rollerblading and the person in the background is riding a bike. I think the person on



rollerblades is a woman and she is waiting for the jogger. I don’t like the picture because it’s black and white and you can’t see the people’s faces.
