Analysis of the teaching material
This unit focuses on the theme of science and scientists. It tells the life experiences, research processes and important contributions of several scientists, as well as the great achievements China has made in scientific and technological innovation in recent years, and also presents some interesting scientific experiences, scientific phenomena, research inventions, etc. It also discusses the future trend of scientific development and the relationship between science and art, aiming at stimulating young people’s interest and curiosity in scientific research, guiding them to think about the methods of scientific research, actively carrying out scientific research, and exploring the essential qualities of scientists and the basic elements of scientific spirit. The theme of the activity is “Understand the questioning mind.” The textbook guides students to analyze the process and method of John Snow to explore the source of cholera and cut off the source of infection, so as to finally stop the cholera epidemic. It encourages them to think and sort out the basic steps and common methods of scientific research, and understand the important role of questioning spirit in scientific research.
Analysis of the students
The students in the second grade of high school have basically mastered the basic knowledge and skills of English. However, there may be some difficulties in reading comprehension and information extraction, so it is necessary to further develop the ability of active reading. At the same time, students’ cognition of “scientists” only exists in the initial stage and cannot form a comprehensive cognition. They still need to further feel the cognitive conflict, experience the courage of questioning and the persistence when questioned, and form the correct values.

Cultural awareness Understand the important contributions of Chinese and foreign scientists and their character characteristics and noble character, in-depth understanding of the connotation of the scientific spirit, establish the concept of innovation, perseverance, hard work. Thinking capacity Through the analysis of Snow’s process of overcoming cholera, the basic steps of scientific research are sorted out. Through Snow’s deeds and understanding the meaning of the spirit of questioning, learn to think critically and form your own opinions and opinions. 4.

Ask the second question to introduce John Snow, the protagonist of the article. Step Ⅱ Pre-reading Activity 1. Figure out the stages of scientific research. Teacher asks students to discuss the following stages of scientific research in pairs. What order would you put them in _____analyze the results _____ask a question _____ draw a conclusion _____ collect data _____ find a problem _____ think of a method _____ find supporting evidence (Aim of design: Let students conduct exploratory reading based on the text and find text support in reading. Students can have a collision of ideas in the discussion. And provide a better mental preparation for reading the following text. Activity 2. Make a prediction.

Teaching reflection
Through the introduction of video in this lesson, we can feel that students’ enthusiasm for participation has increased, and they have more confidence in the knowledge derived from active exploration, and their participation in class is higher. However, some students still have difficulties in reading comprehension and grasping the details of the articles. The link of reading steps before, during and after reading can be more coherent, so that students can have more opportunities to benefit and practice in addition to the content of the text.
