(Good morning/Good afternoon boys & girls)
2. Lead in
T: Today, let’s come to our new lesson Unit6
What’s the title of Unit 6
Ss: Life in the future.
T: What is life
(The students must be at a loss about what to say.)
T: Listen to a little song and answer the question:
(Play the tape)
Row, row, row your boat.
Gently down the stream.
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily,
Life is but a dream.
Ss: Life is a dream.
T: Yes, today we’ll talk about our dream-like future life.
Step 2: Picture talking
(The step is meant to train the students to watch carefully and think actively.)
T: The pictures show us something possible in future.
Please guess what they are Now you are divided into four groups. Each tries to think of more than one sentence to describe the picture. Then the group leader will be asked to report your work.
Possible answers:
SA: In picture 1: A space car or space ship or space plane.We can see a man beside a high-tech car, which is controlled by an advanced computer and equipped with high-quality solar battery. This type of car is friendly to the environment and very popular with consumers.
SB: In picture 2: A space station. We can find some space buildings, which are made of advanced building materials. There the scientists can carry out experiments, watch other planets and so on.
SC: In picture 3: An alien and a UFO or a Martian. In this picture we can see an astronaut and a spaceship. In the near future, more astronauts from different countries will be able to travel to the space and carry out more experiments so that we can have a better understanding of the universe.
SD: In picture 4: Some very old men and Some medicine for long life. We can see several old people talking about medicine. In the future, doctors will have further research into diseases and the medicine will be more effective in preventing and cure diseases.
T: Wonderful. In a word, life in the future is very mysterious and fascinating. Yet we can do more to make our future safer and easer.
*In order to inspire the students’ creativity, the teacher can do the following:
1) Let the students draw another alien through imagination.
2) Let the students predict how long the future man can live.
3) Let the students discuss what measures to take to make men live longer.
Step3: Speaking
This part is to provide the students with realistic situation so that they can have more chances to practice the functional items ----making predictions.
Having “doubles” or not
1. Divide the students into four groups.
2. Individual work. Each student has to offer more answers to support his/her opinion.
3. Group work. Each member states his or her opinion and reasons.
4. Class work. Group leader reports their work.
After 5 minutes.
T: Now you’ve discussed this topic. I’d like the four group leaders to report your work.
SA: I think it would be great to have a double because I could use the double to do the things I don’t enjoy, for example, going to school, doing homework and taking exams. Having a double would also be good because I can do two things at a time, so that I can work more efficiently.
SB: But we think having a double might be dangerous because we don’t know what the double might do. For example, the double might cheat people out of their money. As a result I will have to be punished because of him.
SC: No, I don’t think so. I would like to have a double, because I don’t have time to do all the things I’d like to do, for example, cooking meals and having meetings. Having a double would be wonderful because we could have more time to do things I like best.
SD: However, having doubles would make people confused, because no one would know who the double really was or how to treat it. For example, the double wouldn’t have any parents and relatives. It would be bad for society if people had troubles, because it would be very difficult to make it clear who was to blame for the very trouble.
T: Thank you for all your wonderful ideas. Since it’s a hot topic and we don’t reach any agreement, we can say it’s still early to use this technology to make “doubles”.
