Step 4 Reading
Tell students the following is a fairy tale. Its name’s Hansel and Gretel. Before Reading：
Ask students to read through the passage and decide what kind of text it is. Is it a letter， a play a short story or something else?

4. Because Hansel is dropping white stones along the way. When the moon is shining bright，they’ll be able to see the stones and find their way home.
5. Because they can’t see any bread on the ground. Maybe the birds ate them. Step 5 Language points
1. One year，the weather was so dry that no food would grow. 有一年，天气太干旱了，以至于粮食颗粒不长。
so…that…是一个常见的句式结构，表示“如此……以至于……”，副词so之后接形容词或副词，that引导一个完整的句子，有时that还可省略。例如本单元的这个句子：That bird’s song is so beautiful that we would follow it. K12学习教育资源

2. We thought you were never coming back. 我以为你们再也回不来了。 We thought…表示人们过去的某种想法、判断等，可以译作“我们原想……; 我们本以为……”。如：I thought he would come，but he didn’t.
3. It’s leading us to that wonderful house made of bread，cake and sugar. 它在把我们引向那座由面包、蛋糕和糖果做成的美妙小屋。
此句中made of bread，cake and sugar作定语，修饰名词house，形容词wonderful也是house的定语。在英语中，大部分形容词作定语修饰名词时应前置，短语或句子作定语修饰名词时则后置。如：the young people in the room. 屋子里的年轻人。
