Step 2: Pre-reading
1. Imagine that somebody gives you a large sum of money to spend as you like. What would you do with it? (T: Firstly, I would build a school with the money. And then I would use the rest of the money to travel around the world till the money is used up. At last, I would come to the school to work.)
2. Ask Ss whether they have read the story of “The Million Pound Bank Note”?/ What about the film? If they have, what did they think of it?

2. Read the text carefully and decide on the type of writing and try to get the main idea of the passage.
Type of writing: This is a piece of narrative writing, a play.
Main idea of the passage: Two rich Bristish men offer a penniless American a loan, without telling him that the amount is 1,000,000, and this is the form of a single banknote.
