教学设计后记
本节课是本单元的第二节课，本课时，在词汇、功能与语法方面则比较简单，对学生阅读与听力不构成很大的障碍。
本堂课教学的重点在于：认识和保护共同生活在地球上的动植物的重要性和紧迫性；掌握与野生动物保护的相关词汇和短语，掌握并能正确运用现在进行时的被动语态结构；熟练运用英语表达自己对相关话题的观点和意愿。
教学的难点在于通过思考，探究，讨论和合作等方式，完成单元课文的整体理解，并结合所学内容，用英语完成一篇人与动物和谐共处的习作，表达对保护野生动植物的信心和决心，烘托单元主题。针对高考对语法、知识点考查的改变，课堂设定了语法填空题将词汇运用于新的语境中，以求在巩固本节课所学的基础上，来提高学生的应用能力。
整个设计，笔者本着由易到难的原则，从词---句---篇的层次将所设定的目标语言通过不同形式的练习贯穿于整节课堂。通过分组竞赛小组讨论的形式检查学生对知识的掌握情况，激发学生的学习热情、合作意识，尽力避免单一课堂教授形式所带来的束缚和枯燥。最后，落脚到学生写作上，达到学以致用的目的。

B (2013辽宁B)
Going green seems to be a fad (时尚) for a lot of people these days. Whether that is good or bad, we can't really say, but for the two of us, going green is not a fad but a lifestyle.
On April 22,2011, we decided to go green every single day for an entire year. This meant doing 365 different green things, and it also meant challenging ourselves to go green beyond the easy things. Rather than recycle and reduce our energy, we had to think of 365 different green things to do and this was no easy task.
With the idea of going green every single day for a year, Our Green Year started. My wife and I decided to educate people about how they could go green in their lives and hoped we could show people all the green things that could be done to help the environment. We wanted to push the message that every little bit helps.
Over the course of Our Green Year, we completely changed our lifestyles. We now shop at organic (有机的) stores. We consume less meat, choosing green food. We have greatly reduced our buying we don't need. We have given away half of what we owned through websites. Our home is kept clean by vinegar and lemon juice, with no chemical cleaners. We make our own butter, enjoying the smell of home--made fresh bread. In our home office anyone caught doing something ungreen might be punished.
Our minds have been changed by Our Green Year. We are grateful for the chance to have been able to go green and educate others. We believe that we do have the power to change things and help our planet.
4．What might be the best title for the passage?
A．Going Green B．Protecting the Planet

7．What can we infer （推断）from the last paragraph?
A．The government will give support to the green project.
B．The couple may continue their project in the future.
C．Some people disagree with the couple's green ideas.
D．Our Green Year is becoming a national campaign.
C (2010·辽宁高考)
It was a village in India. The people were poor. However, they were not unhappy. After all, their forefathers had lived in the same way for centuries.
Then one day, some visitors from the city arrived. They told the villagers there were some people elsewhere who liked to eat frog's legs. However, they did not have enough frogs of their own ，and so they wanted to buy frogs from other places.
This seemed like money for nothing. There were millions of frogs in the fields around，and they were no use to the villagers. All they had to do was catch them. Agreement was reached，and the children were sent into the fields to catch frogs. Every week a truck arrived to collect the catch and hand over the money. For the first time, the people were able to dream of a better future. But the dream didn't last long.
The change was hardly noticed at first, but it seemed as if the crops were not doing so well. More worrying was that the children fell ill more often, and, there seemed to be more insects around lately.
The villagers decided that they couldn't just wait to see the crops failing and the children getting weak. They would have to use the money earned to buy pesticides (杀虫剂) and medicines. Soon there was no money left.
Then the people realized what was happening. It was the frog. They hadn't been useless. They had been doing an important job—eating insects. Now with so many frogs killed, the insects were increasing more rapidly. They were damaging the crops and spreading diseases.
Now，the people are still poor. But in the evenings they sit in the village square and listen to sounds of insects and frogs. These sounds of the night now have a much deeper meaning.
8.From Paragraph 1，we learn that the villagers________.
A. worked very hard for centuries B. dreamed of having a better life
C. were poor but somewhat content D. lived a different life from their forefathers
9. Why did the villagers agree to sell frogs?
A. The frogs were easy money. B. They needed money to buy medicine.
C. They wanted to please the visitors. D. The frogs made too much noise.
10. What might be the cause of the children's sickness?
A. The crops didn't do well. B. There were too many insects.
C. The visitors brought in diseases. D. The pesticides were overused.
11 What can we infer from the last sentence of the text?
A. Happiness comes from peaceful life in the country.
B. Health is more important than money.
C. The harmony between man and nature is important.
D. Good old days will never be forgotten.
D
Can we give a hand to those endangered animals? Yes, we may only do a little bit, but together our small actions add up to a lot.
1. Protect wildlife habitat.
Perhaps the greatest threat that faces many species is the widespread destruction of habitat. Cutting down forests, farming, and development all result in loss of wildlife habitat. In areas where rare species live, habitat destruction can quickly force a species to extinction. By protecting habitat, entire communities of animals can be protected together naturally. Parks and reserves are now all too often the only habitats that are left untouched by habitat destruction.
2. Reduce the threat of invasive (入侵的) species.
The spread of non-native species has greatly reduced native populations around the world. Invasive species compete with native species for resources (资源) and habitat. They can even prey on native species directly, forcing native species towards extinction.
3. Place decals (贴花纸) on windows.
It is reported that as many as one billion birds in the United States die each year because of collisions (碰撞) with windows. You can help reduce the number of collisions simply by placing decals on the windows in your home and office.
4. Slow down when driving.
Many native animals have to live in developed areas and this means they must move in human-living areas. One of the biggest obstacles (障碍) to them is that created by roads. Roads divide habitat and present a constant risk to any animal attempting to cross from one side to the other. So when you’re out and about, slow down and keep an eye out for wildlife.
12. What would be the best title for this passage?
A. How animals go to extinction B. The importance of protecting wildlife
C. What to do to help save wildlife D. How to protect wildlife habitat
13. By writing the underlined sentence, the writer means that _____.
A. more parks and reserves should be built
B. we should have more habitats free of destruction
C. there is a need for improvement in parks and re-serves
D. parks and reserves are good examples of protecting wildlife
14. People are advised to put decals on windows to _____.
A. decorate the houses and beautify the environment
B. protect the windows from birds hitting
C. attract more birds to make homes nearby
D. avoid birds hitting the windows by mistake
15. The underlined phrase “prey on” in the passage means _____.
A. drive away B. live with C. kill for food D. fight with
