二、设计意图Design intention:
This section is designed around the theme and includes three levels of teaching tasks:
1、Learning and understanding:
Based on the discourse. Inspire students to reflect on the true meaning of friendship and predict the main content of the article by analyzing the article title. Then, summarize the story plot and some details, and compare the similarities and differences of various perspectives.
学习理解类: 基于语篇。启发学生反思友谊的真谛，并通过分析文章标题预测文章主要内容，进而梳理故事情节梗概和部分细节信息，比较各方观点的异同。
2、Application and practice:
In-depth discourse. Summarize the main content of the discourse, help students analyze new media discourse texts in reading and writing training, guide students to form structured knowledge of narrative plot development elements. Also, guide students to pay attention to the role of conjunctions that indicate contrast in discourse coherence, master the expressions related to the topic of “friendship” in the text, and apply them in the context of the main reading topic.
应用实践类: 深入语篇。概述语篇主要内容，帮助学生在读写训练中剖析新媒体语篇文本;引导学生通过分析叙事情节发展要素,形成叙事情节的结构化知识;指导学生关注表示转折的连词在语篇连贯中所起的作用,掌握文中与“友谊”话题相关的表达方式,并在与主阅读话题相关的文本语境中加以运用。
3、Transfer and innovation:
Beyond the discourse. Guide students to combine their own reality, think from others’ perspectives, and explore the causes of friendship crisis and effective ways to resolve conflicts between friends. Also, help students make reasonable inferences and continue writing the ending, achieving the transfer of knowledge of textual language expression and discourse structure.
迁移创新类: 超越语篇。引导学生结合自身实际，换位思考引发友情危机的原因和化解朋友间矛盾的有效办法;合理推断并续写结局，实现文本语言表达和篇章结构的知识迁移。

5、迁移创新Creative Writing
假如Amy向咨询师写了一封求助信，你作为心理咨询师给她写一封回信。
Dear Amy
I’m sorry to hear that your best friend lied to you and made you feel hurt. I understand that this is a frustrating experience for you. In this situation, I suggest you take a moment to calm down and relax. Next, I will provide you with some advice to help you deal with this issue.
Firstly, try to stay calm and rational. Although you may feel disappointed and angry with her right now, reacting with excessive emotions may only make things worse. Try to think about why she lied to you and if there might be any reasons that led her to choose such behavior.
Secondly, have an honest conversation with her. Find an appropriate time and place to let her know that you are aware of her lie and explain why it has made you feel hurt and disappointed. Express your feelings honestly, but also try to remain calm and rational. While listening to her explanation, keep an open mind and try to understand her motivations. She may have her own reasons, but that doesn’t justify her actions.
Thirdly, consider whether you can forgive her. Everyone makes mistakes, and sometimes we need to give others a chance to correct them. If you feel that she genuinely apologizes and is willing to make amends, then perhaps you can consider forgiving her and continuing your friendship. However, this decision is up to you, and you need to weigh it based on the importance of this friendship to you and her actions.
Lastly, don’t forget to take care of yourself. This experience may be saddening and stressful for you. So, make sure you have enough time and space to process your emotions. Talk to other friends or family members, seek their support and understanding. Also, try to find some relaxing activities to relieve stress, such as exercising, reading, or writing.
I hope these suggestions will be helpful to you. Remember, you are not alone in facing this issue, and you can learn important lessons and grow from this experience. If you need any further assistance or have any other questions, feel free to reach out to me.
Wishing you all the best and hoping you find a solution that suits you.
Sincerely,
Psychological Counselor
6、Homework: writing a letter
假如你是Amy，看了Cindy的留言，你接受了Cindy的建议，决定给你的朋友Mary写信坦诚沟通。
Dear Mary,
I hope you can understand my current feelings because I am really saddened. We have been the closest friends for so many years, but what happened last Saturday has left me very disappointed.
When you told me that you were sick and couldn’t go to the movies, I completely believed you. However, later I heard from a classmate that they saw you chatting with another girl at the café. I was shocked and hurt because I felt like you lied to me.
This situation has left me confused and under a lot of pressure. I don’t know how to face you, and I’m not sure if our friendship can continue. However, I think we should sit down and talk things through to resolve this issue.
Firstly, I hope you can sincerely apologize to me. I need to know why you lied to me so that I can understand your thoughts and feelings. At the same time, I also hope you can understand that trust is the foundation of friendship, and if we can’t trust each other, it will be difficult to maintain our friendship.
Secondly, I believe we need to listen and understand each other. We can find a quiet place to sit down and have a proper conversation, expressing our feelings and thoughts. This way, we can better understand each other and find a solution to the problem.
Lastly, I hope we can rebuild the foundation of our friendship. We can start over and rebuild trust and closeness. We can set some common rules and values together so that we can better support and understand each other.
I genuinely hope our friendship can continue, but it will require your effort and sincerity. If you are also willing to resolve this issue and rebuild our friendship, I believe we can overcome this difficulty.
Looking forward to your reply.
Sincerely,
Amy
