7 | T | why do you think it is a open the door method? |
8 | K | because I don’t think there are any changes it is an explanation just like the expository text there is one main topic and the author explains the topic. there is no changes in here ((point to the third paragraph section)) and there is no special meaning in here ((point to the fourth paragraph section)) |
9 | T | okay. pay attention to these two paragraphs ((point to the third and fourth paragraph sections)) look at the words here(.) it explains that people in the past emphasize men over women |
10 | T | do you know what it means, People prefer men more. they don’t like women |
11 | K | I understand |
12 | T | well, read this paragraph ((point to the third paragraph section)) again and try to understand what it means |
13 | K | (24.0) although the culture used to prefer men than women there is a female who became emperor which means they change their mind to prefer women than men. but this section said that the culture has long history, it is hard to make changes |
14 | T | so it used to emphasize men like Zhu Yingtai ((the woman character)) in the story of Butterfly Lovers but in Tang and Qing Dynasty people prefer women instead(.) like the story of Mulan and the Empress Dowager Cixi |
15 | K | um |
16 | T | Well (.) you can read it again |
