The teacher starts the lesson by asking students if they like traveling and why they travel. Then she asks more personalized questions. For example, she might address the questions to a student who has traveled recently and asks her why he/she traveled. The aim is to elicit travel for business and travel for pleasure phrases. Then she shows them a few pictures and asks what are the people's occupations in these pictures and if they travel for pleasure or business. She also introduces "hiking tour guide" and " hotel manager" in this stage so that students would be able to understand the gist listening better. Then she pairs students and gives them some time to think of some jobs that require traveling for business and some that don't. Ss share their ideas before moving on to the next stage.

Pre-Reading/Listening (10-15 minutes) • To prepare students for the text and make it accessible
