第三部分: 阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中选出最佳选项。
A
What is your favorite color Do you like yellow, orange, or red If you do, you must be an optimist(乐观主义者), a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement. Do you prefer grays and blues Then you are probably quiet, shy and you would rather follow than lead. If you love green, you are strong-minded and determined (意志坚定的). You wish to succeed and want other people to see you are successful. At least this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference, and the effect that colors have on human beings. They tell us that we don't choose our favorite color as we grow up. If you happen to love brown, you did so as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.
A yellow room makes us feel more cheerful and more comfortable than a dark green one, and a red dress rings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing. Light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active. It is a fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or dark gray.
Remember, then, that if you feel low, you can always brighten your day or your life with a new shirt or a few colorful things. Remember also that you will know your friends and your enemies better when you find out what colors they like and dislike. And don't forget that anyone can guess a lot about your character when you choose a piece of handkerchief.
56. According to this passage, ___________.
  A. One can choose his color preference  
B. One is born with his color preference
  C. One's color preference is changeable

  A. Colors do have effect on our moods
  B. A yellow room makes us feel more cheerful

58. The main idea of this passage is ___________.
One's color preference shows one's character
B. You can brighten your life with wonderful colors
  C. Psychologists have been studying the meaning of color preference
  D. One's color preference has something to do with his character and colors have effects on human beings
59. "I am feeling black" means ___________.
  A. I am feeling well    B. I am very happy

B
A desert is a beautiful land of silence and space. The sun shines, the wind blows, and time and space seem endless. Nothing is soft. The sand and rocks are hard, and many of the plants even have hard needles instead of leaves.
The size and location (分布)of the world’s deserts are always changing. Over millions of years, as climates change and mountains rise, new dry and wet areas develop. But within the last 100 years, deserts have been growing at a frightening speed. This is partly because of natural changes, but the greatest makers are humans.
  Humans can make deserts, but humans can also prevent their growth. Algeria Mauritania is planting a similar wall around Nouakchott, the capital. Iran puts a thin covering of petroleum (石油) on sandy areas and plants trees. The oil keeps the water and small trees in the land, and men on motorcycles keep the sheep and goats away. Russia and India are building long canals to bring water to desert areas.
60. People in some countries are fighting a battle against_________
  A. the growth of deserts. B. the disappearance of desert plants.
  C. natural changes. D. congenital (先天的) climate.
61. We can guess that Mauritania and Algeria belong to__________
  A. Asian countries.         B. American countries

A. The deserts of the world are always changing.
B. Man is to take measures to control the growth of the world’s deserts.
C. Deserts are lands of silence and space.
D. Deserts have grown at a fast pace in the past 10 years

Elizabeth had great trouble in finding a school to attend. No medical school would accept a woman student. So she studied by herself at first. She was helped by a few doctors who did believe that women should have the same chance to work as men did.
In 1847 she asked to be accepted at a small medical school in New York. Largely as a joke, the school accepted her. The teachers and students were all men. They waited for Elizabeth to make a fool on herself and then go away. But Elizabeth felt she could learn anything a man could learn. And she proved it. No one laughed at her. The jokes stopped. But none of the town-people would speak to her. They thought she was wrong to study medicine.
As a student, Elizabeth helped treat sick poor people during her summer holidays. She found out that she had much more to learn as she tried to help them. "I must learn more." She said. "There is so much work to be done among the sick. Somehow I must get other women to help me!"
That autumn she returned to school. Elizabeth Blackwell became a doctor in 1849.She was the first woman in the United States to become a doctor.
63. At first it seemed that it was impossible for Elizabeth to find a school to attend because ___________.
A. there was no medical schools in her hometown in those days
B. Elizabeth wanted to teach herself medicine at home
C. A few doctors helped her to study medicine
D. Most people of her day didn't think that women should have the same chance to work as men did
64. A small medical school in New York accepted Elizabeth because ___________.
A. she asked to be accepted many times
B. she was good at telling funny jokes
C. the school didn't take the matter seriously
D. the teachers and students wanted to have a try

D
Without proper planning, tourism can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants of a country. If tourists create too much traffic, the inhabitants become annoyed and unhappy. They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely. They forget how much tourism can help the country's economy. It is important to think about the people of a destination country and how tourism affects them. Tourism should help a country, keep the customs and beauty that attract tourists. Tourism should also advance the wealth and happiness of local inhabitants.
  Too much tourism can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry. This means that other parts of the country's economy can suffer.
  On the other hand, if there is not enough tourism, people can lose jobs.
  Businesses can also lose money. It costs a great deal of money to build large hotels, airports, air terminals, first-class roads, and other support facilities(配套设施)needed by tourist attractions. For example, a major international class tourism hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to build. If this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel lose money.
  Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be many support facilities as well, including roads to get to the hotel, electricity, sewers to handle waste, and water. All of these support facilities cost money. If they are not used because there are not enough tourists, jobs and money are lost.
67. Which of the following do you think has been discussed in the part before this selection
  A. It is extremely important to develop tourism.
  B. Building roads and hotels is essential.
  C. Support facilities are highly necessary.
  D. Planning is of great importance to tourism.
68. The underlined word "inhabitants" (in Paragraph 1) probably means_______ .
  A. tourists   B. passengers C. population    D. citizens
69. Too much tourism can cause all these problems EXCEPT ___________.
A. a bad effect on other industries B. a change of tourists' customs
  C. over-crowdedness of places of interest D. pressure on traffic
70. It can be inferred from the text that ___________.
A. the author doesn't like tourism developing so fast
B. local people will benefit from tourist attraction
C. other parts of a country's economy won't benefit from tourism much
D. we can't build too many support facilities
71. The author thinks it is good for local people to know that tourism will ___________.
  A. waste a lot of money B. weaken their economy
C. help establish their customs D. help improve their life
E
As the proverb says,"no one knows the value of health until he loses it."In other words, nothing is more valuable than health.
It is clear that health is the foundation(基础)of one’s future success. If you become sick, it is scarcely pursue (从事) your career effectively, much less make your dreams come true. On the other hand, if you are strong, you can do all out to overcome the obstacles (障碍) that lie ahead of you.

Third, there is a proverb that says, “Prevent is better than cure.” If pay close attention to your health, you can avoid getting sick. Or at least cure yourself of a disease while it is still in its beginning stage.
In conclusion, health is more important than wealth. Those who are rich but poor in health are no more fortunate than those who are poor and healthy in body. If you want your wish to come true, health is the most important component(组成部分)of your success.

In fact, the International Federation of the Red Cross said that quick reaction after last year’s Asian tsunami had stopped disease. The agency provided clean water to nearly 500,000 people in Indonesia and Sri Lanka after the tsunami.
World Water Day was first celebrated in 1993. Since then, it is celebrated each year on March 22.

Period 1
Teaching aims:
1. To introduce some general science.
2. To learn some words related to the theme of this module.
3. To develop speaking ability by practicing saying the numbers, especially the fractions.
Important and difficult points:
1. Arouse the students’ interests and love in science.
2. Enable the students to understand some elements about the chemistry lab.
3. Make the students know how to read the numbers.
Teaching procedures:
Step 1. Introduction
Activity 1
The aim of the activity is to ask the students to finish the quiz about general science to arouse their interest in science. The activity can be done as follows:
Firstly, ask the students to go through the following the quiz and make their choice on their own.
Quiz: How much do you know about general science
1. Water exists __________.
(a) as a solid, a liquid and a gas (b) as a solid and a liquid only

Then put the students in pairs to compare their answers and call back the answers from the class.
Finally ask them to listen to the tape about the above quiz and check their answers.
Answers: 1. a; 2. a; 3. a 4. a; 5. b; 6. b; 7. b.
Activities 2 & 3
The teacher can prepare some cards about different things for the class at first. Before showing the students the cards, the teacher can say to the whole class: Things can be divided into three kinds, natural, man-made, and either natural or man-made, now I’ll show you some cards in my hand, can you tell me which are natural, man-made or both
After this, the teacher can continue to say to the whole the class: Can you give some examples Then divide the whole class into two big groups to compete. The teacher can ask the Ss to speak out as many examples as possible and write down the words in the table on the blackboard as follows:
Natural Eg: wood, ------
Man-made Eg: glass, ------
Either natural or man-made Eg: water, ------
Finally, ask the Ss to open their books at Page 41 and read the words in the box aloud. If possible, they can look up the words to know what they mean. Of course, the above competition will continue, that is to say, at this moment, the teacher can ask the Ss to put the words in the box on Page 41 in their books in the above table.
Step 2. Vocabulary and Speaking
Activity 1
The aim of the activity is to have the students know how to read the long numbers. So the activity can be done like this:
Before dealing with the activity, the teacher had better build up a long number by
having the students say an increasing sequence, eg:
three
thirty-three
three hundred and thirty-three
3, 333 three thousand, three hundred and thirty-three
33, 333 thirty-three thousand, three hundred and thirty-three
At this time, most of the Ss will know the way of reading these long numbers: where to say “million”, “thousand”, and “hundred”. So in order to consolidate what they just learned, the teacher can practice saying the numbers at the top of Page 42 with the students to make sure the Ss have the correct intonation.
Then ask the Ss to go through the rest of the numbers in Activity 1 and find the errors individually according to the directions.
Finally the teacher calls back the answers from the class.
Answers: 1)The word “thousand” is missing after “four hundred and seventy”; 2)The word “one”(or “a”) is missing before “hundred million”.
Activity 2
Firstly, the teacher point at the fractions and say them in English. At the same time the teacher have the Ss repeat them after him or her.
Then the teacher and the Ss make an analysis about the rules of reading fractions in English together.
Finally the teacher ask the Ss to read the rest of the fractions in Activity 2 on Page 42 in their books in English on their own. If necessary, the teacher can write down the correct answers on the blackboard to check what they read.
Answers: 1. two-fifths; 2. five-eighths; 3. nine-tenths 4.three-eighths; 5.five-sixths.
Activity 3
The teacher should introduce the concept of percentage at first, and then the teacher write down some percentages on the blackboard and read them out in English.
Eg: 35%→ thirty-five percent (or: 35 percent); 50 percent equals a half.
Then have the Ss practice reading aloud the following percentages: 40%; 55%; 85%.
Finally have the Ss work in pairs to describe the fractions in Activity 2 as percentages in English.
Answers: 1. A quarter is the same as 25%; 2.One third is the same as 33.33r%(thirty-three point three recurring percent); 3.Four-fifths is the same as 80%; 4. One tenth is the same as 10%; 5. Three-quarters is the same as 75%; 6. One half is the same as 50%; 7. Two-thirds is the same as 66.66r%(sixty-six point six six recurring percent); 8. Two-fifths is the same as 40%; 9. Five-eighths is the same as 62.5%(sixty-two point five percent); 10. Nine-tenths is the same as 90%; 11. Three-eighths is the same as 37.5%(thirty-seven point five percent); 12.Five-sixths is the same as 83.33r%(eighty-three point three recurring percent).
Step 3. Homework
1. Preview the reading part.
Work in pairs to finish Activities 4& 5 on Page 43.
Periods 2 & 3
Teaching aims and demands:
1. To learn about some vocabulary and knowledge related to science and experiments.
2. To know about some metals and get to know their main uses in our lives.
3. To make the students know how to do a simple experiment and write the report about it in English.
4. To deal with all the activities1-6 about passage A and passage B on page 44-45.
5. To develop students’ expression ability as well as reading ability by practicing these two passages.
6. To raise students’ interests in science and form the rigorous scientific attitude.
Teaching key points:
1. To make the students understand and grasp the vocabulary and knowledge related to science and experiments.
2. To enable the students to know how to read some passages about simple scientific experiments.
Teaching difficulties:
To make students learn how to write an experiment report in English
Teaching methods:
⒈ Communicative Approach
⒉ Task-based Approach
⒊ Aural-oral Approach with the help of the multi-media computer and the recorder
Teaching aids:
Multi-media computer; Software; PowerPoint; Recorder
Teaching procedures:
Step 1: Lead-in
At first show the students the picture of a lab with the help of computer.
Then design the following questions and ask the students to discuss them in groups:
Are you interested in doing scientific experiments
Suppose you want to do a chemical experiment about some metals, do you think it is
necessary to know about how they react with other substances
In order to carry out an experiment successfully, what should you prepare for it
This step is to warm up the students and raise their interests to speak English in class. Because all these questions are very close to the students’ daily life and studying
Step 2. Pre-reading
Teacher: Since you are interested in doing scientific experiments, now let’s get to know some vocabulary and knowledge related to science and experiments.
At the same time I can type out some pictures about some metals on the screen with the help of the computer as follows:
⑴potassium(钾) ⑵sodium(钠) ⑶calcium(钙) ⑷magnesium(镁)
⑸aluminium(铝) ⑹zinc(锌) ⑺iron(铁) ⑻copper(铜)
As I type out each of the above pictures, I can ask the students like this: What’s this And what can it be used for
At this moment the students’ interests are probably approaching a climax. So I further ask them like this: Do you want to know more about these metals And do you know how we can use these metals better Well, this is what we’ll study very soon.
This step is employed to create a language environment for students’ communication and arouse their interests in reading passage A and passage B on page 44-45
Step 3. Reading
Passage A
T: Well, let’s read through passage A with the tape of it very quickly to try to catch its main idea. Then finish Activity 2 on page 44 and give your reasons.
Next, ask the Ss to read passage A very carefully to find out the answers in Activity 3 on page 44. Finish this activity by multi-media computer. It can be designed as follows:
Which of the metals in the table reacts the most with oxygen and water
Potassium, calcium and sodium.
What happens when you heat calcium in oxygen
It burns to form an oxide.
Which metals react with steam
Magnesium, aluminium and zinc.
Does iron have a slow or fast reaction with steam
It has a slow reaction.
Does copper react with water
No, it doesn’t.
Passage B
T: Well, from passage A we can see how interesting the experiment about the reaction of metals is! But do you know how we can carry out a chemical experiment in a lab successfully And what is the correct order to describe a scientific experiment
Ask the Ss to look at Activity 1 on page 44 and give them about 2 minutes to discuss it. Then collect the answers from them. At the same time type out the correct answer on the screen with the computer as follows:
T: Now, let’s come to see “A simple scientific experiment”!
Then play the tape of passage B for the students and ask them to read the passage with the tape quickly and finish Activity 4 on page 44.
In order to lead the students to read the text very carefully, the following task-based questions can be signed to ask them to answer:
⑴Can you guess the meaning of the word “apparatus” through the context Have you known all of the apparatuses of this experiment
⑵In the second part of the experiment, why must you boil the water And then why do you add some oil to the water
For Question 1, some students maybe feel strange to some apparatuses. If so , the following pictures can be typed out with the help of computer to help Ss to know about:
Then in order to make the Ss consolidate what they read in passage B and check if they have understood the experiment very well, Activity 5 on page 46 can be typed out on the screen with the help of computer as a task-based activity。
Step 4. Discussion
1. Do you think it is easy or difficult for you to carry out a scientific experiment well And can you describe how to do it successfully in simple words
2. If you want to learn science subjects well, what qualities do you think you should have (Possible answers: We should be careful / serious / diligent /patient /thoughtful/ etc. )
This step is to consolidate what Ss have learnt in this lesson, in addition to penetrating the moral education to love science and form the rigorous scientific attitude.
Step 5. Homework
1. Write a complete scientific experiment report in simple English.
2. Underline the language points you can’t understand in the text.
3. Go on to read the CUTUL CORNER reading passage of this module on Page 49.
Period 4
Teaching objectives:
To make the students grasp the usage of the degrees of comparison.
Important and difficult points:
1. To have the Ss understand all kinds of forms of degree of comparison.
2. To enable the students to know how to use the degrees of comparison correctly.
Teaching procedures:
Step 1. Lead-in

⑴Jack speak English as fluently as Tom.
⑵This school is better than that one.
⑶This book is more interesting than that one.
⑷This room is less beautiful than that one.

Then call the answers from the class.
Answers: 1.原级; 2、3、4、5、6、均为.比较级; 7.最高级.
Step 2. Grammar structure
Firstly ask the Ss to make a summary about the structures of the degrees of comparison. Then check the answers.
Answers:3 forms ——原级、比较级和最高级。
Step 3. Detailed Notes about Grammar Usage
⒈原级的构成和用法
1)构成:形容词和副词的原级形式是形容词和副词的原形。
2)用法:当表示双方在程度、性质、特征等某方面相等时,用“as+原级adj./adv.+as”的结构;当表示双方不相等时,用“not as(so)+ 原级adj./adv.+as”的结构;当表示一方是另一方的若干倍时,用“倍数+as+原级adj./adv.+as”的结构。例如:
①He is as tall as Jack. // I speak English as fluently as you.
②Your bike is not as(so) new as hers.
③This road is three times as long as that one.
⒉比较级和最高级的构成和用法
1)构成:
⑴规则变化
①单音节形容词以及少数以-er,-or结尾的形容词和副词加 “er”, “est”.例如:
fast-faster-fastest; few-fewer-fewest; great-greater-greatest;
clever-cleverer-cleverest norrow-norrower-norrowest.
②以e结尾的单音节形容词和副词后以及少数以-ble,-ple结尾的双音节形容词和副词后,加 “r”, “st”.例如:
large-larger-largest, able-abler-ablest, simple-simpler-simplest
③以一个辅音结尾的单音节形容词,其前面的元音字母发短元音时,该辅音字母要双写,然后加 “er”, “est”.例如:
hot-hotter-hottest
④以辅音加y结尾的形容词和少数不是形容词加ly构成的副词要将y改写为i,再加 “er”, “est”.例如:
easy-easier-easiest, happy-happier-happiest early-earlier-earliest
⑤一般双音节词、多音节形容词和副词在原级前more或most.例如:
beautiful-more beautiful-most beautiful; carefully-more carefully-most carefully
⑥少数单音节或双音节形容词也加more和most构成比较级和最高级。例如:
tired-more tired-most tired; pleased-more pleased-most pleased;
crowded-more crowded-most crowded
⑵不规则变化
原级 比较级 最高级
good, well better best
bad, ill worse worst
many, much more most
Little less least
Old older(较老、较旧),elder(较年长) oldest(最老、最旧),eldest(最年长)
Far farter(较远的),further(进一步地) farest(最远的)furthest(最深刻地)
[注意]辨析few-fewer-fewest和little-less-least的差别: ①前者是规则变化,后者是不规则变化;②前者用来修饰可数名词,后者用来修饰不可数名词。
2)用法:
⑴比较级的用法
①双方比较,表示一方超过另一方时,用“比较级+than”的结构表示。例如:
This book is better than that one.
②表示一方不及另一方时,用“less+原级adj./adv.+than”的结构表示。例如:
This room is less beautiful than that one.
③表示一个方面随另一个方面的程度而变化时,用“the +比较级(+主语+谓语),the +比较级(+主语+谓语)”的结构。例如:
The harder he works, the happier he feels.
The harder you study, the more knowledge you will get.
④表示自身程度的改变“越来越---”时,用“比较级+and+比较级”结构表示。如:
The weather is getting colder and colder.
The little girl becomes more and more beautiful.
⑤表示倍数的比较级有如下几种句型:
a)“倍数+as+原级adj.+as+被比较对象”,例如:
This river is four times as long as that one.(这条河是那条河的四倍长)
b)“倍数+the+ size(length, width, depth, height)+of+被比较对象”,例如:
This river is four times the length of that one.(这条河是那条河的四倍长)
c)“倍数+比较级adj.+than+被比较对象”,例如:
This river is three times longer than that one.(这条河是那条河的四倍长/这条河比那条河长三倍)
[注意]:
在比较级的前面可以加上如下一些表示程度的状语,但要注意其含义的差别。
a)any加比较级, 表示疑问程度,译为“------一些”,“------一点”。例如:
Are you feeling any better
b)no/not(any)加比较级, 表示否定程度,译为“并不-------”。例如:
Some grow no higher than your ankles.
This film is not more interesting than that one.
c)a bit, a little, slightly加比较级, 表示“稍微,一点(些)”。例如:
May I stay here a little longer
This problem is a bit more difficult than that one.
d)many, much, a lot, greatly, (by)far, rather, a good(great) deal等加比较级, 表示“------得多”。例如:
Our school is much more beautiful than theirs.
The people here are a great deal richer now than before.
[附] by far通常用于强调最高级。用于比较级时,一般放在比较级的后面,如在前面,应在二者中间加“the”。例如:He is taller by far than his brother.// He is by far the taller of the two brothers.
e)even, still加比较级, 表示强调,译为“甚至更/还要-------”。例如:
He gets even stronger.
Jack is tall, but Tom is still taller.
f)“数词+名词+比较级”表示确定的程度。例如:
He is five years older than I.
I got up an hour earlier than the others.
⑵最高级的用法
①三者或三者以上相比,表示最高程度时,用“the +最高级”的结构表示。这种句式一般常有表示比较范围的介词短语。例如:
Zhang Hua is the tallest of the three.
He works (the) hardest in his class.
The Three Gorges area is one of the most beautiful areas of China.
②最高级可被序数词以及by far, by no means, much, nearly, almost, not quite, nothing like等词语修饰。例如:
The Yangtze River is the world’s third longest river.
How much did the second most expensive hat cost
This hat is by far / by no means / much / nearly / not nearly / almost / not quite / nothing like the biggest.
[注意]:
a)作状语的副词最高级前可以不加定冠词。例如:
He came (the) earliest of all the boys.
b)excellent(优秀的、极好的),extreme(极端的),favourite(最喜爱的),perfect(完美的)等词本身含有最高级的含义,所以它们没有比较级和最高级。
c)形容词最高级修饰作表语或介词宾语的名词、代词时,被修饰的词往往省略。
He is the tallest (boy) in his class.
⒊使用形容词、副词的比较等级时要注意的几个问题
⑴在as…as之间只能使用原级形容词(副词)。例如:
误:I have as less money as you do.
正:I have as little money as you do.
⑵切忌采用双重比较
比较级前可以用表示程度的修饰语来表示强调或程度,但不可用more加比较级形式。例如:
误:His health is more worse than before.
正:His health is worse than before.
⑶应避免自我比较
使用比较级时,进行比较的双方必须是互相分离、互不包含的独立概念或事物,否则比较就不合逻辑。例如:
误:Bamboo probably has more uses than any plant in the world.
正:Bamboo probably has more uses than any other plant in the world.
[附]比较的另一方如果是不定代词anyone, anything, 前面不能加other, 而要在其后加else. 例如:
She studies harder than anyone else in her class.
但是,若比较的双方不属于同一范围,句中则不加other。例如:
She runs faster than any boy in her class.
⑷表示“两者中较……”时,比较级前要加the。例如:
The older of the two noblemen took a light and led me into a back room.
⑸被比较的双方必须具有可比性。例如:
误:There are more students in this school than that school.
正:There are more students in this school than in that school.
⑹连词than后使用代词主格和宾格有时意义不同。例如:
①I know you better than he.我比他更了解你
②I know you better than him.我对你的了解比对他的了解更透彻些(或:“我比他更了解你”,此时与①同义)。
⑺使用最高级时,主语不可被排除在最高级所指的范围之外。例如:
误:He is the tallest of all his brothers.
正:He is the tallest of all the brothers.
⑻most前面加不定冠词a/an,或者不加冠词修饰形容词时,它的意思等于very。此时, most已失去最高级的意义。试比较:
a most interesting film(一部很有趣的电影) / the most interesting film(最有趣的电影)
Step 4. Practice

Step 5. Homework
1. Finish the exercises 2, 3 & 4 on page91-92 in their workbook.
Preview the rest of this module.
Period 5
Teaching aims:
1. To learn to catch the related information from what they hear and understand the meaning of some expressions by context.
2. To enable the Ss to recognize the basic differences about the intonation of Wh-questions and Yes/No questions from what they hear.
3. To develop writing ability by practicing writing out the description of the scientific experiment according to what they hear.
Important and difficult points:
1. Enable the Ss to recognize the basic differences about the intonation of Wh-questions and Yes/No questions according to what they hear.
2. Have the Ss understand the exact meaning of some sentences by context.
Teaching procedures:
Step 1. Listening and Writing
It is necessary for a teacher to give the Ss a brief indication before listening. For this listening, the teacher can say to the Ss: We are going to listen to a dialogue that takes place in a lab. A teacher helps a student do an experiment. In this experiment, the metal magnesium burns in air. Is there a change in weight when this metal burns in air Let’s guess / predict.
After the necessary indication, give the Ss very clear directions and requirements to listen. The teacher can continue to say: Now let’s listen to the dialogue. Try to find out whether there is a change in weight when the metal magnesium burns in air. At the same time, pay attention to the information related to the following:
Aim: ____________________________________________________________
Apparatus: _______________________________________________________
Method: _________________________________________________________
Result: __________________________________________________________
Conclusion: ______________________________________________________
Then begin to play the tape once and ask answers from the whole class. And then ask the Ss to finish Activity 2 on Page 47.
Play the recording again and ask the Ss to complete the above description on their own, and then to check their answers in pairs. Before replaying the recording, of course, had better remind the Ss how they usually write up science experiments, that is, completing the description involves some careful reading for specific information and reorganizing the information.
Answers:
Aim: to find out if there’s a change in weight when magnesium burns in air.
Apparatus: Magnesium, Bunsen burner, a balance, a crucible.
Method: First, put the magnesium in the crucible. Then put the crucible on the balance and weigh it. Next, heat the magnesium. Light the Bunsen burner and hold the crucible over it. Finally, weigh the magnesium again.
Result: It weighs a little more than before.
Conclusion: There is a change in weight when magnesium burns in air.
Step 2. Everyday English
Firstly, ask the Ss to go through the everyday English on Page 48 and choose the correct meanings individually.
Then tell the Ss where these everyday English sentences from——they are from the above listening. Now replay the recording, ask the Ss to check what they chose.
Answers: 1) a; 2) b; 3) a; 4) b; 5) a.
Step 3. Pronunciation
At first, organize the Ss to listen to the recording, at the same time, give them the direction to listen and ask them to pay attention to the intonation of Wh-questions and Yes/No questions.
Then play the tape for the class and ask them again
After that, help the Ss to summarize the basic intonation of Wh-questions and Yes/No questions.
Answers: Wh-questions often fall at the end. Yes/No questions often rise.
And then play the tape again and ask the Ss to imitate it.
Finally, give the Ss more sentences to practice.

Step Ⅰ Lead-in
The purpose of this part is to let the students know and get familiar with the new words in INTRODUCTION: expand, contract, mixture, substance, oxygen and electricity. First, write down the words on the black-board, and then teach them the meaning of each word by questioning.
T: Hello, everyone! Do you know the program Lucky 52 on CCTV
Ss: Yeah!
T: OK, now suppose I’m Li Yong, and you are competitors. Here are six words on the blackboard. What you should do is to guess the meanings of them. If you can’t express them in English, you may say in Chinese. The quicker, the better. Are you clear
Ss: Yes.
T: Listen. What do we take in when we breathe
S1: Air.
T: Right. But not exact.
S2: 氧气。
T: Right. In English, it is called “oxygen”. We need oxygen to keep alive. And without it, there will be no life on this planet. OK, another question. What do we call it when we put sugar, eggs, and milk together, or we mix them together
S2: We call it mixture.
T: Good. All the things that are mixed together can be called mixture. Next one, we can use one word to stand for all the things around us, which includes air, water, stone, wood, glass, iron and so on. What is this word
S3: Substance.
T: Right. Next, what will happen when water turns into ice
S4: Liquid will turn into solid.
T: Right. Besides this, will it have some change in size
S5: Yes. It will become larger.
T: Yeah! What do we call this change
S6: It’s called “expand”.
Teacher can use body language to express the meaning of “expand”.
T: Now, the last one. What’s the opposite meaning of “expand”
S7: Is it “contract”
T: You are right. The meaning of “contract” is making or becoming smaller or shorter. Well, I think that all of us did very well. Now please read these words after me.
...
Step Ⅱ Vocabulary
Ask the students to read the sentences in Activity 1 on page 41, and then pick out the correct ones. At the same time ask them to pay attention to the new words. At last check the answers to Activity 1 with the whole class.
For Activity 2, ask the students to work in pairs to finish the task. If possible, ask them to give their rea-sons for doing so. For Activity 3, give the students more words to help them know that materials are around all of us, and we should use them correctly and reasonably.
T: As the saying goes: Birds of a feather flock together or things of one kind come together. Now we’ll put the words in Activity 2 in pairs or groups, just like the pairs in Example. If possible, give your reasons to do so. It is a good chance for us to get familiar with these words. OK, I’ll give you one or two minutes to do the job.
Two minutes later.
T: Have you finished the task
Ss: Yes.
T: Who’d like to read out your answers
S1: We’d like to put air, gas and oxygen together, because all of them are gas. And we put earth, sun and moon together, because all of them are planets.
T: Quite right. How about you two boys’ answers
S2: We put gas, liquid, and solid together, because we think they are the three states of substance. And we also put contract and expand together. The two words have opposite meanings.
T: I’m very glad that you can finish the task so quickly and correctly. Well, all of us know that we are living in a material world. Without these materials, whether natural or man-made, we’ll have nothing to eat, to live in, to use, to wear and so on. Now, let’s look at these words: electricity, iron, metal, steel, air, and glass in Activity 3. You have to tell which of them are natural, which of them are man-made and which of them can be both.
S3: Air, iron and some metals are natural. Steel, some metals and glass are man-made. And electricity can be man-made and natural.
T: Why do you think electricity is both man-made and natural
S3: Because in a storm, we can see lightening in the sky. While the electricity we are using in everyday life is from electric works. So I think electricity is both man-made and natural.
T: Well, it’s a good answer. OK, can you say some other things that are man-made
Ss: There are too many such things.
T: Give us some examples.
S4: Cars, machines, man-made satellites, plastics and so on.
T: Do you know man-made beauty
S6: I know it. Some ordinary-looking girls can become beautiful overnight.
T: Do you think it is necessary to do so
S7: It’s difficult to say. But I think to have a beautiful mind is more important than to have a beautiful appearance.
T: I agree with you. It is said that a woman with a beautiful mind is more beautiful than a woman with a pretty face.
Step Ⅲ Reading (Passage A: P44)
There are three activities in this part: Activity 1: find the correct order to describe the stages of a scientific experiment; Activity 2, find the best title for the passage; Activity 3, answer some questions about the passage.
Task 1: Activity 1
T: Well, if you were an engineer, you would take part in the experiment of making Shen ZhouⅤ Flight. What kind of materials would you like to use
S1: I’d like to use some materials that are light enough and hard enough, so that the flight can be easily sent up into space, and doesn’t get in trouble.
T: How can we find such kind of materials
S2: We can do some experiments. We can’t use natural materials only; we need both man-made and natural materials.
T: That’s right. Now we’ll read a passage about a scientific experiment. Please turn to page 44. We’ll go through Passage A. When we are doing a thing, we should do it in an orderly way. It’s especially true with a scientific experiment. Now let’s see the four words in the table: conclusion, aim, result and method. The four words are about the orders or stages of a scientific experiment. We must know these two words: result and method. What are the meanings of the other two words
S3: “Aim” should be about what the experiment is for. For “conclusion”, I have no idea.
T: Right. “Aim” means purpose or object. For example, he has only one aim in life, that is, to be a millionaire. And for “conclusion”, let’s see an example first, when you have worked on a maths problem for a long time, but you still can’t work it out. So you may make a conclusion that the problem is wrong. Here, “the problem is wrong” is your conclusion. Do you understand
Ss: Yeah!
T: Now who can give us some other examples to show the meaning of “aim”
S4: Many people aim to be a millionaire. But I think to serve people is the highest aim.
T: What is the correct order of stages to do an experiment
Ss: It should be aim, method, result and conclusion.
T: That’s right. Without aim, we don’t know where to go; without method, we don’t know how to do things well; without result, we’ll draw a blank or gain nothing; without conclusion, we’ll find what we’ve done is worth nothing.
Task 2: Activity 2
Ask the students to scan Passage A and find the best title for the passage.
T: Please look at Activity 2. What you should do is to scan Passage A and decide which is the best title for the passage.
Give the students some time to do the job and then check the answer.
T: Well, what’s the best title for the passage
S4: The Reaction of Metals.
T: Why
S4: The writer begins the passage by introducing the different uses of different metals. But for the rest part of the passage, including the table, he / she mainly describes several metals’ reaction with different substances.
T: What a good reason it is! Now, let’s look at Activity 3.
Task 3: Activity 3
Ask the students to read and answer the questions below the passage. Give them some time to do the job. After that, check the answers with the whole class.
Step Ⅳ Reading (Passage B: P45)
In this part, the students will read the passage and then fill in the table below the passage.
There are three Tasks in this part. The first one is to ask the students to find the structure of the passage and finish the table. The second one is to deal with Activity 5. The third one is to finish Activity 6.
Task 1: Structure of the passage
T: Now, we’ll continue to read Passage B. The title of it is A Simple Scientific Experiment. From the passage we can see how the experiment is done. What is the structure of a description of experiment Who can come to the blackboard to write down the structure
S: Let me try.
A student comes to the blackboard and writes down the structure.
A Simple Scientific Experiment:
Introduction → Aim → Apparatus → Method → Result → Conclusion
T: OK. We should notice that there are 3 different reactions which are respectively described with method, result and conclusion. Now, please read the passage and then fill in the table.
Let the students do the job, and then check the answers with the whole class.
T: Well, what is ordinary water according to the experiment
S6: I think ordinary water here means the water that has not been boiled, and has air in it.
T: Right. We also call ordinary water “raw water”. Now what’s “Bunsen burner” We often find it in labs. Now, turn to page 46, and find the picture of Bunsen burner.
Task 2: Activity 5
T: Now please turn to page 46. Look at Activity 5. Read Passage B again. Complete the sentences.
After the students finish the sentences, ask some of them to read out the complete sentences and check the answers with the whole class.
Task 3: Activity 6
This part is about vocabulary study. Let the students read after the teacher, and then work in pairs to find the meanings of the new words.
Explanations of some words:
React: have effect on (of one substance applied to another)
Steam: gas from boiling water
Oil: liquid which does not mix with water, obtained from animals, plants or found in rock under-ground
Boil: (of water or other liquid) reach the temperature at which change to gas occurs
Scientific: of, for, connected with, used in science
Experiment: test carried out carefully in order to study what happens and gain new knowledge
Float: be held up in air, gas or on the surface of liquid; move with liquid or air
Form: give shape or form to; make, produce
Dissolve: (of a liquid) soak into a solid so that the solid itself becomes liquid
Step Ⅴ Language Points
Ask the students to translate the following sentences, and get familiar with the sentence structures.
Show the following sentences on the screen.
1. It is hard to think of a world without metals.
2. It is important to know how they react with different substances, for example, water
and oxygen.
3. This makes sure there is no air in the water.
T: Before we finish this class, let’s look at the screen. There are three sentences on it.
Can you translate them into Chinese
Let the students translate the sentences into Chinese.
T: OK. In fact, these sentences involve two sentence structures. One is: it is + adj. + to do something. The other is an object clause. Now let’s look at more sentences to get familiar with the two sentence structures.
Write down the structures on the blackboard and then show the students more sentences on the screen:
1. It’s hard (difficult) to say which is better.
2. It’s foolish (silly) to act like that.
3. It’s easy to learn a foreign language.
4. It’s impossible to finish the job in one day.
5. It’s wrong to steal.
6. I only came to make sure that everything was all right.
7. Father makes sure that all the lights are off before he goes to bed.
8. Make certain that your facts are right.
9. We must make certain that she can come.
Let the students translate the sentences. If they have any difficulty, give them some help.
Step Ⅵ Homework
T: Today, we have learned some new words and two passages about scientific experiment. After class, please do Exercises 6, 7 and 8 on pages 92&93. These exercises can help us remember the new words and expressions about scientific experiment. OK, that’s all for today. See you next time.
Ss: See you.

Step Ⅰ Revision
Check the students’ homework. For Exercises 6 and 7, give them answer sheet. For Exercise 8, ask 10 students to read out the complete sentences one by one. They should pay attention to their pronunciation and intonation.
Step Ⅱ Listening and Writing
This is a continued part to the reading material. The students can get more familiar with some new words and expressions, and also get familiar with the description of an experiment. Ask the students to scan the three activities in LISTENING AND WRITING on P46, so that they know what they are going to do, and try to get ready to catch the key words or key sentences when they are listening.
T: Now, please turn to page 46. We are going to have a listening. At first, scan the three instructions to know what you are going to do.
Several minutes later.
T: Do you know what you are going to do
Ss: Yes.
T: What’s the first one
S1: To read the Aim below and predict the Result.
T: What is your prediction
S1: I think there are two results. One is that the magnesium is heavier than before. The other is that it becomes a little lighter than before. It’s difficult to get a result, unless we make an experiment.
T: Good, this is a correct attitude towards science. Now, we’ll listen to the conversation to find the result. So please listen carefully and write down the key words.
Play the recorder for the students to have a first listening. After that, let the students write down their answers using the key words. If possible, ask them to write the whole sentences.
T: Now let’s listen and complete the description of the scientific experiment. We’ve known the Aim and Result. What we should focus on is Apparatus, Method and Conclusion. And for Method, we should pay attention to the function words: first, then, next, after that, and lastly. Do you remember
Ss: Yes.
T: OK, let’s listen again.
Play the tape recorder again. The students listen to the recorder and complete their sentences. At last, collect the answers.
Step Ⅲ Listening and Speaking (P95)
This is another experiment for the students to have a listening. The purpose of the listening is the same as the above one. Ask the students to read the exercises before listening, including Exercises 13, 14 and 15, so that they know clearly what they are going to do.
T: Now, we’ll have another listening. Are you clear about what you are going to do
Ss: Yes.
T: OK, for Exercise 13, we have to decide what the aim of the experiment is. And then decide the correct order of the stages. So, first look at the pictures, work in pairs to describe what the boy is doing.
Let the students do the job, and then collect their descriptions.
T: Well, just now, I collected some of your descriptions about what the boy is doing. Look at the sentences on the screen.
Write the following sentences on the screen.
a) Bob is writing a conclusion.
b) He is squeezing a lemon.
c) He is going to fire the paper.
d) This is the aim of the experiment.
e) He just lighted a candle.
f) He is going to write something on the paper.
g) He is blowing the paper.
T: All of these descriptions are very good. Now let’s listen to the tape to find the aim and put the stages in the correct order.
After the students finish the task, check their answers with the whole class by listening to the material again.
T: Well, it’s time for us to have a speaking. Look at Exercise 15. Take it in turns to describe the experiment. Use these words and phrases in the box.
Give the students some time to do the job. And then ask one or two of them to read out their descriptions. Teacher can also leave this part as homework.
Step Ⅳ Vocabulary and Speaking
In this part help the students master the rules of reading English numbers. There are 3 tasks in this step: Task 1, Activity 1; Task 2, Activity 2; Task 3, Activities 3 and 4.
Task 1: Activity 1
T: Today we’ll learn how to read some English numbers. Please look at Screen 1, Part A. There are some numbers on it. Find the rules and then work in pairs to read them correctly.
Screen 1:
A2202002,00020,000200,0002,000,00020,000,000200,000,0002,000,000,000 B1221231,23412,345123,4561,234,56712,345,678123,456,7891,234,567,890
Several minutes later.
T: Do you find the rules of these numbers
S1: It seems that three zeros are used as a unit.
T: Right. How do you read 20,000
S1: Twenty thousand.
T: How about 200,000
S1: Two hundred thousand.
T: How about 2,000,000
S1: Two thousand thousand.
T: I’m afraid you are wrong. It should be two million.
S1: Sorry, I forget it.
T: OK, how about 20,000,000
S2: It’s twenty million.
T: Right. How about 200,000,000
S3: That’s two hundred million.
T: What about 2,000,000,000
S4: That is two thousand million.
T: Right. This is the way that English numbers are read. American would like to read like this: two billion. You did very well. Sit down, please. Now, let’s look at the screen. Here is the ways we read
English numbers. Please pay attention to the bold face. That’s the unit of the numbers.
Screen 2:
200 Two hundred2,000 Two thousand20,000 Twenty thousand200,000 Two hundred thousand2,000,000 Two million20,000,000 Twenty million200,000,000 Two hundred million2,000,000,000 Two thousand million or two billion
Let the students read the numbers on Screen 2 and then read numbers in Part B in Screen 1. Let them work in pairs to do the job, and then ask them to read the numbers out individually.
S: ...
T: Now let’s look at Screen 3. These are the ways we read and write the numbers.
Screen 3:
22 Twenty-two123 One hundred and twenty-three1,234 One thousand, two hundred and thirty-four12,345 Twelve thousand, three hundred and fifty-five123,456 One hundred and twenty-three thou- sand, four hundred and fifty-six1,234,567 One million, two hundred and thirty -four thousand, five hundred and sixty-seven12,345,678 Twelve million, three hundred and forty-five thousand, six hundred and seventy-eight123,456,789 One hundred and twenty-three mil- lion, four hundred and fifty-six thousand, seven hundred and eighty-nine1,234,567, 890 One billion, two hundred and thirty- four million, five hundred and sixty- seven thousand, eight hundred and ninety
To check whether the students have mastered the way of reading English numbers, let them look at the numbers in Activity 1. There are two mistakes. Let the students read the numbers and find the mistakes.
T: Now there are some numbers in Activity 1 on page 42. There are two mistakes in them. Read the numbers and then find the mistakes. After that I’ll ask some of you to tell the mistakes.
Later.
T: What are the mistakes
S1: One is in Number 1. The word “thousand” is missing after “four hundred and seventy”. The other is in Number 2. The word “one” (or “a”) is missing before “hundred million”.
T: Quite right. That’s all for Activity 1.
Task 2: Activity 2
Now, let’s turn to Activity 2. Look at the fractions and the way of saying them. What’s the rule
S1: The upper ones are cardinal numbers and the lower ones are ordinal numbers.
T: Right. When do we use plural forms
S2: When the upper one is more than one.
T: Right. But the way you are saying is very interesting. In English, what you call “upper one” is called numerator of a fraction; while the “lower one” is called denominator. Now, let’s read these fractions in English: 2/5, 5/8, 9/10, 3/8, 5/6.
Students read the fractions.
Task 3: Activities 3 and 4
T: Now, let’s look at Activity 3. Describe the fractions in Activity 2 as percentages.
Ask the students to work in pairs to compare their answers. And then collect the answers from the class.
T: Now, look at Activity 4. Read these questions aloud and say the answers. Work in pairs to take turns asking and answering the questions.
Give them some help, if some of them have any trouble in doing this. After a while, check the answers with the whole class.
If time permits, finish Activity 5. If not, leave it as homework.
Step Ⅴ Homework
T: In this class we listened to two materials and learned to read some numbers in English. It’s hard, but you have mastered all of them. You are terrific! Now, pay attention to our homework: One is to preview Vocabulary on page 46; The other is to finish Exercise 9 on page 93 and Exercise 15 on page 95. For Exercise 15, you’d better write them down, so that we can show them out on the screen. Next time, I’ll check your answers to these exercises. OK, class is over, see you tomorrow.
Ss: See you.

Step Ⅰ Revision
For the homework, check whether they can read the decimals correctly by following the examples. If they have any problems about this part, help them. For Exercise 15, ask some students to read out their descriptions. Meanwhile, pay attention to whether they have used the function words and expressions in the table.
Step Ⅱ Lead-in
Show some proverbs to the students and let them guess the meanings of the sentences. And then give them the correct meanings of the sentences.
T: Today, we’ll learn the degrees of comparison. At first, let’s look at the screen and guess the meanings of the sentences.
1. Two heads are better than one.
2. More haste, less speed.
3. East, west, home is best.
4. The best mirror is an old friend.
5. Least talk, most work.
Students give their answers. And teacher corrects some mistakes if there are any.
Sample translations:
1.(谚) 两人智慧胜一人。
2.(谚) 欲速则不达。
3.东跑西跑还是家里最好。
4.(谚)老友是宝镜。
5.少说话,多干事。
T: From these sentences, we know that Degrees of Comparison are used widely in English. Today, we’ll learn some of them.
Step Ⅲ Degrees of comparison 1 (P43)
In this step, the students will finish Activity 1 and Activity 2 on page 43.
Task 1: Activity 1
Let the students give some sentences that they have learned with the comparative degree in. And then turn to page 43 and read the first two sentences in Activity 1. Ask them to tell the difference between these sentences.
T: Can you give me some sentences with the comparative degree in them
S1: The earth is larger than the moon.
S2: Tom is fatter than Mike.
S3: She is more beautiful than her sister.
T: Right. What’s the difference between these sentences and the one on the blackboard
Write the sentence on the blackboard:
The earth is forty-nine times larger than the moon.
S4: There are “forty-nine” times before the word “larger”.
T: Right. That’s what we’ll learn today. When we want to express degrees of comparison, we can use this structure.
A is ... times larger (bigger, taller, higher, wider, longer etc.) than B.
Write down the structure on the blackboard.
T: It’s very simple; just add “... times” before the comparative degree. But please note that we say “twice” instead of “two times”. Are you clear
Ss: Yes.
T: Now, let’s do some easy maths problems. Listen! If Object A is 10 meters long, and Object B is twice longer than Object A, how long is Object B
S5: Twenty meters long.
T: Good. You’ve understood the structure correctly. The second problem: if Object A weighs 100 kilogrammes, and Object B is four times heavier, how heavy is Object B
S6: 400 kilogrammes.
T: Why
S6: Because Object B is four times heavier than Object A.
T: OK. Besides this structure, we can use another structure to express the same meaning. That is:
A is ... times as large (big, tall, long etc.) as B.
Write down the structure on the blackboard.
T: Well, let’s go on to do some maths problems.
Task 2: Activity 2
Read the instruction of Activity 2, and let the students read the sentences in Example. After that, ask them to finish the following 5 problems.
T: The purpose of the task is not to check your intelligence, because I believe that all of you have high IQ. It’s about the uses of the two structures we’ve just learnt. Now, finish the task and then check your answers with your partners. Remember you must use both of the structures to practice what we’ve just learned.
After a while, ask four students to read out their answers in complete sentences.
S1: I think winter in Harbin is four times colder than Beijing. Or, winter in Harbin is four times as cold as Beijing.
T: The structure is right, but there are mistakes in the two sentences. Who can correct the mistakes and read out a complete sentence
S2: It should be “Winter in Harbin is four times colder than that in Beijing.”
T: Right. When we are using the comparative degree,we must pay attention to the two comparison objects. Now who would like to do the third one
S3: Miss Wu, can we say that “in winter the temperature of Harbin is four times lower than in Beijing”
T: That’s a good sentence, but also you should pay attention to the two comparison objects. We should say that “In winter the temperature of Harbin is four times lower than that of Beijing.”
Write down the two sentences on the blackboard, so that the students can clearly know the agreement in two comparison objects.
T: Are you clear OK, how about the third problem
S4: I think Mount Qumolangma is about six times higher than Mount Tai. Or, Mount Qumolangma is about six times as high as Mount Tai.
S5: My aunt’s house is twice as large as my house. Or, my aunt’s house is twice larger than my house.
S6: Tom weighs over twice as heavy as Lily. Or, Tom is over twice heavier than Lily.
Step Ⅳ Degrees of comparison 2 (P47)
Task 1: Activity 1
T: Now, please finish the sentences on the screen, using proper words and the structure.
Show the sentences on the screen.
bright dark heavy weak fat
1. When the sun rises, it is getting _______.
2. When the sun sets, it’s getting _______.
3. When the rush hour comes, the traffic is getting _______.
4. After suffering a long disease, he is getting _______.
5. She likes to eat sweet, and these days she is getting _______.
Read out the first part of each sentence, and let the students read and finish the second part of the sentence.
Sample answers:
1. brighter and brighter 2. darker and darker
3. heavier and heavier 4. weaker and weaker
5. fatter and fatter
T: Now, we are going to learn another structure. Suppose you save a millionaire’s life, and he offers you money to thank you, and asks you: “How much do you want ” And suppose you are a greedy person. What will you say
S1: The more, the better.
T: Yeah, you are so clever. It’s a real bargain. But if he also wants you to share his pains, and asks you “How much do you want ”, what will you say
S2: The less, the better.
T: Ha! You’re clever. But there can’t be such an easy thing in the world. No pains, no gains. If you gain what you shouldn’t gain, that would be a disaster. Now, please look at the three sentences on the screen:
1. It’s getting brighter and brighter!
2. The close you are, the more you’ll see.
3. The more books I read, the more information I learn.
T: Do you know the meanings of these sentences

StepⅠ Revision
Check the students’ homework.
For these two exercises, ask the students to read out the complete sentences.
T: From Exercise 4, we know that we can use much, a bit, a lot, a little to modify the comparative expressions. Besides these, we have other words to do this. Now please look at the sentences on the screen. Read the sentences and pay attention to the bold face.
You have far more imagination than I have.
It’s slightly warmer today.
She’s actually a good deal older than she looks.
Do you feel any better today
She was no older than Zilla.
You must go and get some more milk.
He is fat, but his brother is still fatter.
This book is even more useful than that one.
My sister is ten years younger than me.
You’re a head taller than Jane.
It was one-fourth cheaper than the market price.
After the students have finished reading, ask them to make a conclusion of the words to modify the comparative degree.
T: By now we’ve learned many words that can modify the comparative degree. What are they
S1: They are much, a lot, far, a bit, a little, slightly, any, no, some, even, still, a head, ten years and so on.
T: Yeah, that’s right. Now, that’s all for the home-work. Let’s come to Reading.
Step Ⅱ Lead-in
T: Do you know this man
S1: He is Ting Zhaozhong, a world-famous Chinese scientist. He once won the Nobel Physics Prize.
T: That’s right. He is a top-class scientist. Many outstanding scientists think it is an honor to work with him. What he often says is “I don’t know”. We know science is a serious thing. You can’t be too careful in it. I think this is the real spirit that a scientist and the person who aims to be a scientist should have.
Step Ⅲ Reading (P94)
Task 1: Fast reading
T: Now let’s turn to page 94 to see what happened in the chemistry lab. First, read the three summaries about this passage on page 93. After reading the passage quickly, choose the best one.
Give the students some time to read the passage.
T: Which one do you think can be the best summary of the passage
S1: No. 1 is the best summary, I think.
T: Good.
Task 2: Careful reading
The purpose of this task is to answer the eight questions in Exercise 11, and let the students get familiar with some new words in this Module.
T: Now, let’s read the questions in Exercise 11, so that you can know what you should do when you are reading. Now read the passage carefully and find the answer to each question. Mark where the answers are and then number them. So that you can find them quickly when you need these answers.
Let the students do the job in pairs. One asks the questions and the other answers them. While the students are asking and answering the questions, walk around the classroom to see if they need any help. And at the same time, collect the answers.
Step Ⅳ Discussion
T: Well, you often do some experiments in your science lessons, right Did any incidents happen Now I’ll give you some time to discuss the incidents that have happened in your science lessons.
After a while.
T: Who would like to report an incident that happened before
S1: I’d like to. One morning, we were doing a chemical experiment in the school lab. We fetched some solution(溶液) from the cupboard, including oil of vitriol(浓硫酸), and put them on the table. Wang Hua and Ding Ding were in the front row. Xiao Ming and I were in the second row. Suddenly, Wang Hua turned to say something to me, and turned over the bottle with oil of vitriol by accident. The bottle was not covered! The oil of vitriol splashed. Soon a hole was burned in Xiao Ming’s coat. And his hand was burned to black. He screamed. We were so worried. The teacher ran over to send Xiao Ming to the nearest hospital.
Fortunately, nobody else was injured in the incident. However, it taught us a good lesson. Never leave a bottle uncovered on the table.
S2: I’d like to tell you about one of the incidents in our chemical experiment. In the experiment, we used Bunsen burner. After the experiment, one of my classmates forgot to cover it. About ten minutes later, a teacher passed the laboratory and smelt the odd smelling. She immediately entered the lab and put out the fire. Fortunately, no further incident was caused. After that all the teachers and students were gathered to have a meeting. The headmaster gave a talk to emphasize the importance of safety in lab. That’s a good lesson.
T: Yeah, if the teacher didn’t notice the incident, it would have been a terrible fire. We often think it’s impossible to make an accident. But as a saying goes, “It’s not too careful to do a thing.” We should always keep the saying in mind.
Step Ⅴ Cultural Corner
T: In this Module, we’ve learned many things about scientific experiment. Maybe some of you find it interesting, because you are interested in science; while others may find it’s dull, because they prefer art lessons. In our class, who enjoy study-ing science And why
S1: I like studying science. I like maths best. When I work out a problem, I feel very happy.
S2: I like chemistry. It’s very interesting to see that you add one substance to another, and they react and change into a new substance. That is fantastic!
T: Knowledge is power. Whatever subjects you enjoy learning, you should devote yourselves to them. Or you won’t make any achievement. Now let’s turn to page 49. Read the passage and answer this question: Why has Mark become more interested in science
Give the students some time to do this in pairs, and then check the answers.
T: Are you ready to answer the question
Ss: Yeah!
T: Why has Mark become more interested in science
S3: I think there are two reasons. One is that the science facilities are very good in the new school, with laboratories that have all the latest equipment. The other is that they have four chances each term to public science lectures, and the lecturers are people who have made real discoveries in their area of science. I think Mark is a lucky person.
T: Yeah. Situations can change a person. In fact, we also have the same chance to learn some knowledge outside class. Channel 10 on CCTV offers a lot of lectures about science and art. Some are given by famous professors. One of my favorite programs is “百家讲坛”. If you often watch it, I believe you’ll benefit from it.
Step Ⅵ Summary and Homework
T: We have learned a lot about scientific experiments. Nowadays, it seems that most people prefer science, because they think science can bring financial benefits, while they do not pay much attention to morality, ethics and love. As a result, there are many disasters and wars in the world. So when we are learning science, we should also pay attention to morality, ethics and love. Today’s homework is to preview PRONUNCIATION and EVERYDAY ENGLISH. OK, time is up. So long, everyone.
Ss: So long, teacher.

Step Ⅱ Exercise 5 (P92)
This exercise asks the students to use the given words to describe the picture. Give them 2 or 3 minutes to prepare the task, and then ask some of them to read out their descriptions.
T: Well, now let’s look at the picture and the given words in Exercise 5. We’ll use these words to describe the picture. Please work in pairs to do the job. Two or three minutes later, I’d like some of you to describe the picture to the whole class.
Two or three minutes later.
T: Which pair is ready to describe the picture
S1: OK. Bob is doing an experiment in the chemistry lab. On the table there is a crucible, a beaker, a Bunsen burner, a pair of tongs, two nails and a test tube holder. Bob is holding a tube and a glass rod. Perhaps he is going to pour some liquid in the tube into the beaker.
T: This is a good description. You have used all the given words. Who else would like to try
S2: Let me try. After the incident, Paul becomes more and more careful. Now he’s going to do another experiment. First he puts a crucible, a Bunsen burner, a pair of tongs, two nails, a beaker, and a test tube holder on the table. This time, he examines what he takes from the cupboard again and makes sure that he does not make a mistake. Now he is holding a test tube in one hand and a glass rod in the other hand. Look, how serious he is!
T: What a good job it is! The style is the man (文如其人). Your description, just like you, is very lively and lovely. Now, let’s turn to page 48 and look at FUNCTION.
Step Ⅲ Function
The purpose of this part is to let the students master the words and expressions of sequence. Ask the students to look at the words in italics and then answer the question: When do we use them
T: Now look at the words in italics. What are they
Ss: First, then, next, after that, and lastly.
T: When do we use them
S1: When we want to tell something according to the time when the thing happens.
S2: We can also use them when we’re making a plan to do a thing.
T: Right. What you said means “sequence” or “connected line of events, ideas, and something else”. Well, read the passage again and then turn to page 96. We’ll do the Speaking and writing.
Step Ⅳ Speaking and Writing (P96)
The purpose of this part is very clear. That is to ask the students to practice the way of describing an experiment, and also make use of the function words.
T: Now let’s turn to page 96 and look at Exercise 16. Do you know what you are supposed to do
Ss: Yes.
T: OK, match the headings with the paragraphs quickly. Please pay attention to the function words.
Check the answers with the class.
T: Now look at Exercise 17. We are going to write a description of the experiment in Activity 13. You can refer to the plan and pictures on page 95 to organize your ideas.
A sample description:
Aim: The aim of this experiment is to write a secret message with invisible ink.
Equipment: a lemon, a small container, a pen, some white writing paper, a candle and some matches.
Method:
First, squeeze the lemon and pour the juice into a container.
Next, take your pen and dip it into the lemon juice. Then write your message on a clean sheet of white paper.
After that, blow the paper to dry the lemon juice.
Next, light a candle with the matches.
Finally, hold the paper near the candle flame.
Result: The message will gradually appear on the paper with light brown color words.
Conclusion: The message appears when you heat it because the lemon juice reacts with oxygen in the air. This reaction produces a brown colored oxide which you can see.
Step Ⅴ Homework

Born in Ann Arbor, Michigan on January 27, 1936, he was brought back to China by his parents when he was three months old. He moved to Taiwan with his parents in 1949. He went to Michigan University to study in the departments of physics and mathematics in 1956, won Master’s degree in 1960, Ph D in physics in 1962. He once worked in the Nuclear Center in Europe for one year, and began teaching at Columbia University since 1964 and became professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1967.
Dr. Ding discovered J/ψ particle in 1974 and won the Nobel Prize for this with another scientist in 1976.
Youngsters Go for Science, Teaching Professions
Which career will you choose when you grow up
For Chinese youngsters, science or education are now the most popular choices, according to a recent survey by the All-China Women’s Federation.
Chinese young people used to choose careers in business or films only a few years ago, occupations which would bring them wealth, fame or both. But the latest poll has revealed that 28.12 percent of all the 3,500 young people surveyed, aged between 6 and 18, expressed their keenness to become scientists in the future, with another 17 percent hoping to become teachers. They said that Wu Wenjun, a Chinese mathematician, and Yuan Longping, the “father of hybrid rice”, have set good examples for them. Both the scientists have made outstanding achievements in their respective fields and won 5 million yuan (US$604,000) each in cash in February this year by winning the country’s top science and technology award for the year 2000.
The survey was conducted in Beijing and Shanghai municipalities and five other provinces around China. The youngsters’ mothers, most of whom had senior high school or higher educational backgrounds, also filled in questionnaires which aimed to reveal Chinese families’ current attitudes towards new trends in children’s education.
The mothers held the firm belief that to become wealthy through knowledge would correctly guide Chinese society into its next phase in the new knowledge economy era.
In recent years, the Chinese Government has been calling for people to have a greater respect for science and knowledge, and has encouraged intellectuals to make themselves rich through knowledge. Social status and economic levels of Chinese scientists and teachers have since seen obvious improvements.
The survey highlighted a big change in ordinary people’s values and their concepts of education, which was a result of China’s social advancement, said Guan Hongyu, director of the education management department of the Beijing Institute of Education.
Chinese parents are well known for their concerns about how well their children do at school. But according to the latest poll, roughly half of the mothers believed a good child should depend on himself or herself, and constantly strive to pursue his or her dream. Some 33.57 percent of the youngsters surveyed agreed with this opinion.
“China is transforming itself from a society that used to be solely concerned about school certificates to one that requires all-round abilities.” Guan re-marked.
Introduction to the School of Physics, Peking University
In 1902, the Division of Mathematics and Physics was established in the Metropolitan University (original name of Peking University). It was the beginning of the higher education of mathematics and physics in China.
In 1913, The “Wu Li Men” (Physics Department) was formed in the University, which was the first physics undergraduate education unit in China.
During the War of Resistance against Japan, Peking University, Tsinghua University and Nankai University moved to Kunming and formed the National Southwestern Associated University. Physics Department of Southwestern Associated University has nurtured many outstanding scientists, including Li Zhengdao(T.D.Lee), Yang Zhengning, Zhu Guangya, Deng Jiaxian.
In 1952, China’s higher education system reorganized its colleges and departments. Former Physics Departments of Tsinghua University and Yanjing University merged into Physics Department of Peking University. The new Physics Department of Peking University became one of the most important physics city in China, gathering together talented scholars such as Rao Yutai, Hu Ning, Huang Kun, Yu Fuchun, Zhou Peiyuan, Ye Qisun, Wang Zhuxi, Yang Liming and Zhu Shenglin.
In 1950’s, some subdivisions of Physics Depart-ment had developed into new departments, such as Geophysics Department and Electronics Department. In addition, Department of Technical Physics, which is the first nuclear science department in China, was established based on staffs and students coming from around the country.
Since 50 years after the liberation, physics depart-ments in Peking University have cultivated thousands of scholars, including more than 90 academicians of the Chinese Academy of Science. Lectures and text- books in these departments are well known nation wide and abroad. Courses given by Professor Wang Zhuxi, Huang Kun, Zhao Kaihua, Guo Dunren, Zeng Jinyan and many others have deep influence on the Chinese physics society. The research work are also fruitful, thanks to the leadership of famous Professors such as Hu Ning, Yang Liming, Gan Zizhao, Yang Yingchang, Hu Jimin, Chen Jiaer, Zhao Bolin and Chen Jiansheng.
At the beginning of twenty-first century, on the way towards the world-class university, Peking Uni-versity is reforming its internal organization system. On May 18th, 2001 the School of Physics was established based on former Physics Department, Atmospheric Science Division of former Department of Geophysics, former Department of Technical Physics, former Department of Astronomy, former Institute of Heavy Ion Physics and some inter-discipline research centers, totaling about 320 staffs and about 1,500 students. In this newly combined school there are 6 academicians of Academy of Science, 5 Chang-Jiang Professors, 2 national key laboratories, one key laboratory of the state Department of Education, 2 national base of basic science education, 5 national key disciplines, 8 specialties for doctoral candidates and 8 post-doctoral stations. The school is one of the most important part of the university, with a view for promoting it a world-class university.
School of Physics of Peking University will keep and develop its fine academic traditions and will make greatest effort to promote its education and research.Module 5 A lesson in a lab
