Work in groups and write a brief profile about a widely-known person in a certain field, such as sports, showbiz, academic circle, literature, etc. Show it on PPT in class and ask other groups to guess WHO IT IS. Each group selects one person in a certain field freely and keeps it a secret from other groups. Try to avoid overlaps among different groups and make it not so easy for other groups to guess in the beginning of your presentation. The group which succeeds in guessing can ask other groups which fail to give a performance in front of the whole class. prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" / E valuation Criteria 1.

The teacher should prepare pieces of paper with different fields on them in advance. 2. As for the rules, we can refer to one new game on Happy Camp — Please Getting to the Point (start from 01:07:30 to 01:20:00). You can also play it in class for students to consult.
