Option 1First ask the students to read the given sentences individually and quickly. Make sure they understand what they all mean and find out what phrases can be used to give opinions in them. Then divide the students into groups of four and require each group to make up some other sentences with these phrases. Finally, each group chooses a student to report their sentences to the whole class who can listen carefully and check whether these sentences are true or false.Option 2Let the students work in pairs and take turns to read the sentences, paying attention to their pronunciation and intonation, especially noticing the weak sound. Make sure that they read them correctly and understand what they all mean, finding out the phrases for giving opinions. If they have any problems, explain them to the class. Then ask some pairs to speak out their answers. Finally, the teacher shows the correct answers on the screen for the whole class to refer to. If you think it necessary to review other phrases for giving opinions, you can provide a group of such phrases for them to read and practice how to make use of them. Or just ask the students to brainstorm such phrases. This exercise can not only be of use for the students to further go over some phrases for giving opinions but also lay a good foundation for the oral practice of expressing themselves correctly.2.
