A CHINESE CULTURAL VERSION OF �THE HORSEDEALER�S DAUGHTER�: text plus questions and exercises
I changed the story to reflect a Chinese setting and created questions and exercises. Students might be assigned the story as homework, discuss in pairs in class, and then ask and answer questions with a new partner. The length of the text allows various in-class exercises, e.g., dictation, and so on.

After about 10 minutes, re-pair the students, and give the questions. Allow plenty of time for students� comments. My second year English majors had plenty to say about the topic.
