Good morning, class. This period we are going to read about IN SEARCH OF THE AMBER ROOM. Before our reading, I’d like to know:
A. What kind of old things are cultural relics
B. Are all the old things cultural relics
C. What is the definition of cultural relics
Keys for reference:
A. Cultural relics are physical remainders of what different peoples valued in the past and continue to value now. It can also be said that cultural relics are more than works of art; they are symbols of history and the people who lived in the past.
B. No, not all the old objects are cultural relics.
C. Each kind of relics preserves some aspect of cultural heritage and each relic is still a unique cultural expression and contributions.
Now we are going to read about IN SEARCH OF THE AMBER ROOM
Step two: pre-reading
1. Looking and saying
Work in pairs. Look at the pictures on the PPT. All these relics are quite beautiful. But some of them were lost and ruined in history，such as Yuan Ming Yuan and the Amber Room. Please guess:
A. Why these cultural relics disappeared
B. Why do they come into being once again
Keys for reference:
A. Maybe wars, natural disasters, and time have damaged or destroyed them, getting them lost and changed. Many of them were even stolen and hidden while nobody knows who, where and how.
B. People get to know these. If these relics could not be found again, they would be rebuilt by people.
2. Explaining and sharing
Work in groups of four. Tell your group number:
A .What do you know about the cultural relics “the Amber Room”
Keys for reference:
A.I am from group 6. From the information of history legends and news reports, we know the Amber Room is a room built by lots of ambers. It was a gift given to Peter the Great, the King of Russia, by the King of Prussia, Frederick William I. It was given the name because almost thousand tons of natural ambers were used to make it. But during the second world war in 1941, the Nazi German army secretly stole the Amber Room and sent boxes of the Amber Room on a train to a German city. After that, what really happened to the Amber Room remains a mystery.
Step three: while-reading
1. Listening
Listen to the record of the text IN SEARCH OF THE AMBER ROOM. Pay attention to the pronunciation of each word and the pauses within each sentence. And answer the following questions:
1) Why was it called Amber Room
2) How many tons of amber were used to make the Amber Room
3) What else were used to make the room besides amber
4) When and why did Frederick William I give the Amber Room to Peter the Great
5) What did Peter the Great give in return
6) What did Catherine the Great do with the Amber Room？
7) When and how was the Amber Room supposed to have been lost
2. Skimming and identifying the general idea of each paragraph Now please skim the text to get the key words and general idea of each paragraph
1st paragraph the introduction about the Amber Room: design, colour, shape, material
2nd paragraph the present to the Czar: a part of winter palace in St. Petersburg, a reception hall for important visitor

5th Paragraph the rebuilding of the Amber Room: a new one but the same as the old built by the two countries, for celebrating the 300th birthday of Petersburg
Step four: post-reading
