(用原版)
Here's how to write a playPick the characters and the location the action is taking place. Try using just three or four characters from the show. Decide what you want to happen to the characters. Are they on a treasure hunt Are they spending the afternoon at the beach Are they trying to solve a problem You decide. Choose the main character of the play. This is the person who the play is about. He keeps the story going. On a piece of paper, write the names of the characters, the location, and the basic story. Start writing the dialog. It'll look something like this: Main Character: Say this. Friend: Say that. Other Friend: Say something else. Main Character: Finish the conversation. Make the actors move. Write in something like this: (Main Character enters the kitchen from outside). Add props that fit the action, such as a beach ball and towel for a beach scene. Reach a good conclusion to the action. Proof read the play. Correct spelling, grammar. Add ideas. Ask some friends to play the parts. Put it on for your family and friends. If you think it's really great, send it in to one of the kids' variety shows.
Tips: Read it and read it again, then read the play again. Give it to someone else to read for ideas for what the actors say to each other. If you think you're better at writing short stories than plays, go ahead and change it to a short story! Submit the play or story to one of the kids variety or reading shows.

You American visitors
There's a joke about Cantonese food that is often told: They cook everything with four legs except the table and everything that flies except the airplane… The Chinese people love to eat and spend a lot of time eating. It is surprising to us that people eat out so much—not only in restaurants, but in little shops for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Some of the little shops have a few chairs, some not. Many people set up shops on the sidewalk, often with facilities for simple cooking.
5. Guided Writing

Ingredients: 4 eggs, 2 tomatoes, 50 gram peanut oil, proper amount of salt, gourmet powder and chopped scallions.
Cooking methods:
Firstly break the egg shells, put ale egg white and yolk into a bowl and stir them with salt, gourmet powder and the chopped scallions. Secondly wash the tomatoes carefully and cut them into dices of about 4 centimeters. Then put the tomato dices into the mixture of eggs. Finally when the ingredients are ready, put the frying oven on the gas-stove to heat the oil. When the oil is hot enough, pour the egg liquid together with the tomato dices into the oven. Turn over the egg liquid and tomato dices as quickly as you can until the tomato dices are done.
This dish has three different colours: red, yellow and green. It is fragrant and delicious with a bit of sour flavour. It is rich in protein and vitamin C.

7. Closing down by reading more about eating
Eating in a healthy wayGOOD dining habits are vitally important to a person’s health, Chen Zhonghui, a renowned nutritionist, told a large audience at the Shenzhen Grand Theater on Saturday. According to Chen, 60 percent of diseases are caused by an unhealthy life style, while only 15 percent are genetically based.A human being’s main sources of nutrition are protein, fat, carbohydrate, mineral elements, salt, vitamin and water. People should try to get nutrition from foods, instead of tonics, said Chen, who worked as nutritionist for China’s State and provincial leaders for more than a decade and co-wrote a popular health guidebook.When asked how he stays healthy, Chen said he eats “everything.” One should not be choosy about food, he said. Chen also pointed out several ordinary unhealthy dining habits, such as eating only flour and rice and refusing to eat coarse grains; eating only appetizers and refusing to eat entrees; and eating only fruit and refusing to eat vegetables. Chen said foods should be clean and fresh, and their nutritional elements should be preserved as much as possible while preparing and cooking them. For example, wash vegetables before shredding them so as to avoid washing vitamins away. Northern Chinese like to eat braised vegetables in the winter, but braising them robs the vegetables of their nutrition.Chen also stressed the importance of eating at proper time. Shenzheners often have simple breakfasts, quick lunchs and large suppers. Chen said these eating habits are unhealthy and a major cause of obesity.It’s better to eat an early and nutritious breakfast and eat modest portions in the evening, said Chen. Contrary to many calcium-supplement advertisements, Chen said people will not suffer from insufficient calcium if they have enough soybeans, milk and sunshine.Part 1 Teaching Design

Warming up by learning vocabulary
Hello, everyone. We shall read about healthy eating today. Everybody has to eat, but do you eat a healthy diet Turn to page 95 and familiarize yourself with the words and expressions used in this unit. Try to make up a story based on the vocabulary, either in English or in Chinese.
Warming up by sharing opinions
If you eat out a lot, find ways to follow your meal plan as much as possible. Pick a restaurant with a variety of choices to increase your chances of finding the foods you want.
When you eat out, order only what you need and want, know how to make changes in your meal plan in case the restaurant doesn't have just what you want.
(用原版)
Variety, Balance, and Moderation多样性,平衡性,和节制性There is no secret to healthy eating. Be sure to eat a variety of foods, including plenty of vegetables, fruits, and whole grain products. Also include low-fat dairy products, lean meats, poultry, fish, and legumes. Drink lots of water and go easy on the salt, sugar, alcohol, and saturated fat. Good nutrition should be part of an overall healthy lifestyle, that also includes regular physical activity, not smoking, and stress management. If you drink alcoholic beverages, do so in moderation.
2.Pre-reading by questioning and answering
Rice is main food in South China. What do you think would happen if tomorrow there was suddenly no rice to eat

(用原版)
How to order in a restaurant *If you don't know what's in a dish or don't know the serving size, ask.
*Try to eat the same portion as you would at home. If the serving size is larger, share some with your dining partner, or put the extra food in a container to go.*Eat slowly. *Ask for fish or meat broiled with no extra butter.*Order your baked potato plain, then top it with a teaspoon of margarine or low-calorie sour cream, and/or vegetables from the salad bar. *If you are on a low-salt meal plan, ask that no salt be added to your food.Ask for sauces, gravy and salad dressings "on the side." Try dipping your fork tines in the salad dressing, then spear a piece of lettuce. Or add a teaspoon of dressing at a time to your salad. You'll use less this way.*Order foods that are not breaded or fried because they add fat. If the food comes breaded, peel off the outer coating.*Read the menu creatively. Order a fruit cup for an appetizer or the breakfast melon for dessert. Instead of a dinner entree, combine a salad with a low-fat appetizer.*Ask for substitutions. Instead of French fries, request a double order of a vegetable. If you can't get a substitute, just ask that the high-fat food be left off your plate. *Ask for low-calorie items, such as salad dressings, even if they're not on the menu. Vinegar and a dash of oil or a squeeze of lemon are a better choice than high-fat dressings.*Limit alcohol, which adds calories but no nutrition to your meal. Unit 1 Festival around the world

Why do people want the weather to be fine on Qiqiaojie →Because if it rains Zhinu would weep and the couple wouldn’t be able to meet.
What is the reason why Li Fang and Hu Jin did not meet on time →For Li Fang had gone to the wrong place to meet Hu Jin. They should meet at the tea shop.
Why was Li Fang so worried at the end of the story →Because he had no gifts for Hu Jin.
6. Acting a text play
Next we are going to put the text A Sad Love Story on stage, that is, to play the story.
(用原版)
A text play of A SAD LOVE STORY(Time: Valentine’s Day; Place: the coffee shop and the tea shop; People: Li Fang, the coffee shop manager and Hu Jin )Li: (heart-broken) (to the manager) What time is it now, Sir Manager: It is ten to ten. Are you waiting for someone here Li Fang: Yes, I am meeting my girl friend here. She said she would be here by seven o’clock. It is almost ten now. We agreed to meet here, at this coffee shop after work. But she has not turned up yet. Manager: You look heart-broken. Don’t worry. I am sure she will be here very soon. Maybe she is with someone right now, doing something. But she will keep her word.Li Fang: I don’t think she will come to meet me. I look forward to being alone all my life. She is laughing at me. Oh, my God. I look like a fool, being alone on this Valentine’s Day, with nobody loving me in this world.Manager: So hold your breath for me to calm you down. Don’t drown your sadness in coffee.Li Fang: It is obvious that you want me to leave, don’t you What are you doing Are you wiping the table Why did you sit down and turn on the TV Manager: No, I won’t ask you to go. Look! It’s a sad Chinese story about love, on TV. Li Fang: I do not watch TV plays very much. Manager: But this one you must watch! It tells about a weaving girl and a herd boy. They have fallen in love with each other.Li Fang: Are they married Manager: Yes, they got married secretly. But the mother of the girl, the Goddess, doesn’t like her daughter to be married to a human. See she becomes angry and orders her to return to the Heaven. Li Fang: How about Niulang Will he follow the girl back to the Heaven Manager: Yes, he tries to follow her. But…Li Fang: But what Manager: See the river The Milky Way It is impossible for this boy to cross the river.Li Fang: I see. The mother has decided to let the couple meet once a year. But how do they cross the river, the Milky Way Manager: The heavenly magpies make a bridge of their wings so the couple can cross the river to meet. Li Fang: When do they meet Manager: They meet once every year on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month.Li Fang: The TV play is over and I have to be off now, to meet my girl. But where is my girl Hu Jin: Why It’s you, Li Fang Why didn’t you come to meet me I have been waiting for you ever since 7 this evening.Li Fang: I am heart-broken. You leave me alone in the coffee shop, waiting for you the whole evening. Are you in love with someone else Hu Jin: I was waiting for you at the tea shop. Did you forget that we agreed to meet there Li Fang: Is it the tea shop, not the coffee shop Hu Jin: Absolutely!Li Fang: Sorry! I apologise to you. My memory failed me. Hu Jin: So you set off for home Anyway you are here. Now here you are, the gift from me. You know it’s the Valentine’s Day Li Fang: But, but I have thrown mine away Hu Jin: Why Li Fang: Because I don’t want them to remind me of you. I thought you would never turn up in front of me, to see me, to love me. Hu Jin: I passed a man on the corner on my way here looking for you. I heard him singing the song of Qiqiaojie. I thought it was you. So I waved at him. But it turned out to be a stranger. Li Fang: Could you forgive me I have no gifts for you on this happy and sad Valentine’s Day.
7. Writing an imagined and different ending to the story of Li Fang, beginning with:
As he sadly passed the tea shop on the corner on his way…
8. Writing a description
To inform the foreigners of the Chinese culture, you are to write a description of Qiqiaojie in English. You may begin like this:
Love story for this day is about the 7th daughter of Emperor of Heaven and an orphaned cowherd. They were separated by the Emperor. The 7th daughter was forced to move to the star Vega and the cowherd moved to the star Altair. They were allowed to meet only once a year on the day of 7th day of 7th lunar month.
9. Finding information
Go to the library to read or get online to search in order to find more information on festivals and celebrations. Take notes of your finding and report to your group mates next period.
10. Writing letters
Write a letter either to Zhinu or Niulang, telling about the modern life and the modern love.
11. Closing down
Closing down by filling a form
Make use of the text and others to fill in the form.
TWO SAD LOVE STORIES
OF Li Fang and Hu Jin Of Niulang and Zhinu
Closing down by describing the stars of Vega and Altair
To end this period, I am going to ask you to write a short passage to describe to the class the two stars of Vega and Altair which are related to Qiqiaojie, the Chinese Valentine’s Day.
For reference:The StarsThe star Vega (Weaving Maid) is the 5th brightest star in the sky. Therefore, it's very easy to find in the summer night. The size of Vega is 16 times bigger than the Sun. The temperature on its surface is more than 10,000 degrees. The brightness of Vega is 25 times brighter than the Sun. It's 25 light years away from the Earth.The star Altair (Cowherd) is the 11th brightest star in the sky. Therefore, it's not difficult to find in the summer night. The size of Altair is 4 times bigger than the Sun. The temperature on its surface is about 8,000 degrees. The brightness of Altair is 11 times brighter than the Sun. It's 17 light years away from the Earth.Unit 3 The Million Pound Bank Note
Part 1 Teaching Design
第一部分 教学设计
Period 2 A sample lesson plan for Learning about Language
(Noun clauses as the object and predictive)
Introduction
In this period students will be first helped by the teacher to warm up by having a dictation. Then students are asked to discover useful words and expression and learn about grammar—noun clauses as the object and predictive. Ready used materials for noun clauses as the object and predictive are offered. Then the class is closed down by students reading more on object clauses.
Objectives
To learn about Noun clauses as the object and predictive
To discover and learn to use some useful words and expressions
To discover and learn to use some useful structures
Procedures
1. Warming up by dictation
The Million Pound Note is a satisfying adaptation of a satirical short story by Mark Twain. Henry Adams, an impecunious American lives by his wits in London. Henry becomes the object of a wager between millionaire brothers Oliver and Roderick Montpelier, who want to find out if a man with a million pound note in his bank account could live comfortably for one month on the strength of that note--without ever spending a penny of it. When Henry is given the note and lets it be known that he has it, every courtesy imaginable is extended to him by hoteliers, restaurateurs, etc. Trouble brews when Henry uses the note's reputation to speculate on the stock market. When his creditors demand that he produce the note as an act of faith, Henry is unable to do so.
2. Discovering useful words and expressions
In pairs do the exercises on page 20 and 21. You must finish them in 10 minutes.
3. Learning about grammar——Read and identify Noun clauses
Like phrases, subordinate clauses can perform the function of the various parts of speech such as nouns, adjectives, and adverbs. A subordinate clause which functions as a noun is called a noun clause and can serve as a(an):
Subject
Direct Object
Indirect Object
Predicate Noun
Object of a Preposition
Object Complement
Appositive to a Subject or Object
Scan the text for examples of Noun clauses as the object and predictive.
4. Studding the ready used materials for Noun clauses as the object and predictive
1. Example of a noun clause functioning as a direct objectWe discovered his arrogance.“Arrogance” is the object of “discovered.”We discovered what he had asked her.The clause “what he had asked her” is the object of the verb “discovered” in this sentence.2. Example of a noun clause functioning as an indirect objectWe showed the professor the error.“The professor” in this sentence is the indirect object, and “the error” is the direct object.She gave every little error her full attention.The noun clause “every little error” is the indirect object, and “her full attention” is the direct object. Remember that the direct object should answer the question, “What did she give ” while the indirect object answers, “To whom (or what) did she give it ”3.Example of a noun clause functioning as a predicate noun(Remember that a predicate noun is a subject complement that renames the subject.) The insult was his audacity.“Audacity” is an abstract noun which is subject complement (predicate noun) of the subject “insult.”The insult was that he had even asked her.The clause “that he had even asked her” is the predicate noun (subject complement) of this sentence.4. Example of a noun clause functioning as an object of a preposition.She found fault in his question.“Question” is the object of the preposition “in.”She found fault in what he had asked her.The clause “what he had asked her” is the object of the preposition “in” in this sentence.5. Example of a noun clause functioning as an object complement.You can call him a scoundrel.The word “scoundrel” is an object complement that describes the direct object “him.”You can call him what you wish.The clause “what you wish” can take the place of “scoundrel” as object complement.
5. 宾语从句小结
宾语从句在句中作及物动词或介词(如except,but,besides等)的宾语。I know nothing about her except that she lives next door. 我只知道她住在隔壁房间。注:(1)主句的谓语是make,find,see,hear等,且带有复合宾语时,可把宾语从句置于宾补之后,用it作形式宾语。I find it necessary that we practice spoken English every day.我发现每天练习英语口语是必要的。(2)许多描述情感的形容词(happy,glad,afraid,pleased,sorry,surprised等),或表示确信无疑的形容词(certain,sure等)后可带宾语从句。I’m afraid (that)we’ve sold out of tickets.对不起,我们的票已经卖完了。(3)在表思想和感觉的动词(believe,imagine,suppose,think,expect等)之后,可以把从句上的否定形式转移到这些谓语动词上来。I don't believe she’ll arrive before 7. 我不相信她会在7点以前到达。二、直接引语和间接引语。直接引语——引述别人的原话,放在引号内。间接引语——用自己的话转述别人的意思,不用引号,常用宾语从句表达。(1)陈述句变为以that(常可省略)引导的宾语从句。He said,“I am very glad.”他说:“我很高兴。”He said that he was very glad.他说他很高兴。(2)一般疑问句变为以if(whether)引导的宾语从句。一般地,if和 whether引导宾语从句时可换用。I don't know whether(if)you can help me.我不知道你是否能帮助我。但下列情况一般用whether,不用if。1)后面紧跟or not时。 Mary asked me whether or not she should come.玛丽问我她是否应该来。2)介词之后时。She was worried about whether she passed the exam她担心考试是否及格了。3)动词discuss、argue等之后时。We discussed whether we should send the students to the conference.我们讨论是否派学生去参加会议。4)与不定式连用时。She is not sure whether to stay or not. 她不能确定是否留下。5)宾语从句置于句首时。Whether he lives there,I want to know. 我想知道她是否住在那儿。6)可能造成歧义时。Let me know whether you can come.. 告诉我你是否能来。(若用if,除了上述宾语从句意义外,还可理解成条件状语从句,译为:如果你要来,请通知我。)(3)特殊疑问句变为以wh-/h-等疑问词引导的宾语从句。(注意从句要用陈述句语序)He said,“where is Mr Green?”他说:“格林先生在哪?”He asked where Mr Green was. 他问格林先生在哪里。在名词性从句中,what既引导该从句,又在其中作句子成分时,what常可转换成the thing(s)+that定语从句。She told me what she had done .(宾语从句)She told me the things that she had done.(定语从句)她告诉我她做了什么。三、宾语从句谓语动词的时态。(1)若主句谓语动词为一般现在时和一般将来时,宾语从句的动词可根据句意用任何时态。Will you tell me how you learned English well?告诉我你怎么学好英语的好么?I think he’ ll be back in an hour.我想一小时后他会回来的。(2)若主句谓语动词为过去时时,从句的动词需用跟过去有关的时态。I thought they were having lessons我想他们正在上课。She said she had done her homework她说她已做完作业。(3)宾语从句表达客观真理,不论主句是什么时态,从句都用一般现在时。The teacher told us light travels faster than sound老师告诉我们光的速度比声音快。
6. 复习表语从句
从属连词that(一般不省略为好),whether(不用if),as if(though)等引导的表语从句。The reason( why ) she hasn't come is that(此处不可用because)she has to send her mother to a hospital.她没来是因为她必须送母亲去医院。 The question is whether the work is worth doing. 问题是这项工作是否值得做。It looks as if it is going to rain. 天好像要下雨似的。连接代词what,which,who,whom,whose等引导的表语从句。This is what I want to say. 这就是我想说的。连接副词when,where,how,why等引导的表语从句。This is how we overcome the difficulties. 这就是我们克服困难的方法。

Period 1 A sample lesson plan for reading
(FESTIVALS AND CELEBRATIONS)
Introduction
In this period, after the warming up, students will first be guided to imagine, talk and share what they know about festivals. Then they will be helped to read an exposition(说明文)entitled FESTIVALS AROUND THE WORLD. Examples of “Warming Up” designs are presented in this book for teachers’ reference.
Objectives
To help students understand the text’s forms and contents and learn about festival around the world
To help students communicate on the topic in focus with the words, expressions and structures learned in this unit
Focus
Words harvest, starve, trick, gain, gather, award, admire, blossom, fool, apologize, drown, wipe, weave, weep, remind, forgive
Expressions take place, in memory of, dress up, play a trick on, look forward to, day and night, as though, have fin with, turn up, keep one’s word, hold one’s breath, set off, remind … of…
Patterns 1. Discuss when they take place. 2. Festivals and celebrations of all kinds are held everywhere. 3. The most energetic and important festivals are the ones that look forward to the end of winter and the coming of spring. 4. The country is covered with cherry trees flowers so that it looks as though it might be covered with pink snow.5. In European countries it is the custom to decorate churches and town halls with flowers and fruit. 6. If they are not given anything, the children might play a trick. 7. Because they thought these festivals would bring a year of plenty.

第一部分
《金色教案》教学设计说明
About the topic and the structures单元话题和结构 本单元的中心话题是“健康饮食”。本单元将通过谈论健康饮食,让学生了解饮食与健康方面的有关知识并且能根据所学知识审视自己、审视食物,提高健康饮食意识,并在日常生活中少吃汉堡、薯条等高热量低营养食品,多吃水果、蔬菜和谷物,远离肥胖和亚健康状态。本单元语言功能项目是:“提建议”、“看医生”和“同意与不同意”。本单元语言结构项目依然是“情态动词”。本单元还要求学生学习写作“劝说文:广告”。《金色教案》教学设计在单元课时划分上与课本保持一致,即“阅读课、知识课、运用课三课时/三课型划分”。但在实际教学过程中,建议教师依据学生基础、教学条件、学校安排的因素,对课本、对《金色教案》教学设计重新划分课时,裁剪、拼接使用提供的材料,以便“物尽所用”,达到最佳教学效果。教师也可以参照《金色教案》提供的“实际教学过程课时划分建议”进行教学。
Period 1Reading 阅读课 Warming Up 教师选择使用提供的Warming up by learning vocabulary, 或者Warming up by sharing opinions进行热身,激发学生的阅读兴趣,导入本课,为Reading部分的阅读做好铺垫。Pre-reading 引导学生通过questioning and answering进行操作。Reading课文主要讲述王鹏伟和咏慧开饭店的不同风格,经营的菜肴以及顾客对不同食品的不同反响,反映了现代人对饮食的关注和时尚追求。文章结尾一句话The competition between the two restaurants was on!给读者留下了悬念, 引起学生极大兴趣,使学生有继续阅读的欲望。建议通过下列活动Looking and listening,Reading aloud to the recording, Reading and underlining,Understanding difficult sentences,Reading to decide on the type of writing and summary of the text,引导学生从形式到内容掌握课文。最后是Closing down by retelling the text。
Period 2Learning about language 知识课 Learning about language 主要突出本单元的重点词汇和主要语法项目。通过Warming up by having a dictation,Discovering useful words and expressions,Learning about grammar, Reading ready used materials for Modal verbs: ought to / ought not to / have to / don’t have to / mustn’t / needn’t 和Closing down by doing a quiz 等活动,帮助学生熟练掌握情态动词ought to / ought not to / have to / don’t have to / mustn’t / needn’t的各种语用功能。
Period 3Using language运用课 Using language涵盖了听、说、读、写四个部分。首先是 Warming up by listening and reading aloud,然后是Reading and underlining,Doing exercises, Guided speaking——Talking with foreigners about Chinese food, Guided Writing。之后是 Further applying —Acting a text play,最后以Closing down by reading more about eating结课。
实际教学过程课时划分建议
Period 1 将Warming Up、 Pre-reading、Reading和Comprehending整合在一起上一节“阅读课”。
Period 2 将Learning about language 和Workbook中的 USING WORDS AND EXPRESSIONS、USING STRUCTURES 整合在一起上一节“语言知识课”。
Period 3 将Using language 设计为一节包括听说读写单项技能或组合技能训练的“综合技能课(一)”。
Period 4 将Workbook 的READING AND LISTENING和TALKING整合在一起上一节“听说课”。

教学测评说明
围绕单元词法、句法项目,《金色教案》提供了长短不一的“单元教学测评”,并备有参考答案供教师使用。有些测评题目直接源于历年高考试卷,更具有说服力和实用性。5. Reading and underlining
A really useful way to help us with our listening is to become aware of 'thought groups' .
When we speak, we need to divide speech up into small ‘chunks’ to help the listener understand messages. These chunks or thought groups are groups of words which go together to express an idea or thought. In English, we use pauses and low pitch to mark the end of thought groups.
Next you are to read the text, dividing the text into thought groups and circling all the useful expressions or collocations in the passage. Copy them into your notebook after school as homework.
Collocations from A TRIP ON “THE TRUE NORTH”on a trip(在旅途中), on the Atlantic coast(在大西洋海岸), take the aeroplane(乘飞机), fly from… to…(从……飞行到……), take the train from… to…(乘火车从……到……), from west to east(从西到东), across Canada(横穿加拿大), cross the whole country(横贯整个国家), wait for…(等候……), at the airport(在机场), take…to…(把……带到……), catch the train(乘坐火车), on the way to…(在去……的路上), see great scenery(看美丽壮观的风景), on the trip(在旅途中), go eastward(向东行驶), pass cities(经过城市), in less than five days(在不五天的时间里), from coast to coast(从一个海岸到另一个海岸), in the warmest part of…(在最热的地方), be surrounded by…(被……所包围), on the north(在北边), ski in the mountains(在山上滑雪), sail in the harbour(在港湾了扬帆行船), north of…(……的北边), settle down in the seat(落座), look out of the window at the wild scenery(从窗口看到了自然风光), a mountain goat(野山羊), a grizzly bear(大灰熊), a famous Western festival(有名的西方节日), come from all over…(全来自……), compete in ~ing(比赛做……), ride wild horses(驾驭野马), have a gift for ~ing(有天资/天分做……), work with…(与……共处), win…prizes(赢得……奖金), live within 320 kilometres of the USA border(居住在靠近美国320公里以内的边境地带), go through…(穿过……), a wheat-growing province(种植小麦的省份), thousands of square kilometers in size(面积有数千平方米), at the top end of…(在……的最上首), a busy port(繁忙的港口), be close to…(接近……), one-third of…(……三分之一), rush through…(穿行过……)
The Rocky MountainsThe Rocky Mountains, the great backbone of North America, extend 5,000 kilometers from New Mexico to Canada. The elevations range from about 1,500 meters along the plains to 4,399 meters, and the widths range from 120 to 650 kilometers. The Rocky Mountains are composed of many mountain ranges with unique ecological features. For example, 20 ranges make up the Rocky Mountains in and adjacent to Wyoming. The natural beauty, abundant wildlife, and fresh water have attracted human inhabitants for the last 10,000-12,000 years.

9. Understanding difficult sentences
Are there any difficult sentences Now discuss with your partner the difficult points from the text.
10. Closing down by acting the text
Acting out the text is a strategy for motivating us to read out loud the text. We need oral practice and help with pronunciation and so acting out the text really helps us.
To end the period let’s act this text out. We shall have three student actors to play Li Daiyu, Liu Qian and Danny Lin.

Some ready used materials for Modal verbs: ought to / ought not to / have to / don’t have to / mustn’t / needn’t will be offered.
Objectives
To learn about Modal verbs: ought to / ought not to / have to / don’t have to / mustn’t / needn’t
To discover and learn to use some useful words and expressions
To discover and learn to use some useful structures
Procedures
1. Warming up by reading aloud the text COME AND EAT HERE (1)
We promote reading aloud to students and by students in order to encourage a love of English books and a desire to become a fluent English speaker. So Read aloud the text before we learn about the grammar.
2. Discovering useful words and expressions
In pairs do the exercises on page 12. You must finish them in 5 minutes.
3. Reading and identifying
Read the text COME AND EAT HERE (1), discovering all the sentences which contain any of the modal verbs: ought to / ought not to / have to / don’t have to / mustn’t / needn’t.
4. Consolidating by doing exercises
To consolidate your understanding you will be given 10 minutes to go over exercises on page 13. You may just write in your text book. I mean the student’s book you are working by.
5. Reading the ready used materials for Modal verbs: ought to / ought not to / have to / don’t have to / mustn’t / needn’t
(用原版)
1. What are Modal Verbs Modal auxiliary verbs help other verbs express a meaning or an idea but have no meaning by themselves. In English, modal auxiliary verbs are defective; for example, they do not have participle forms (no -ing or -ed endings).They are used in a variety of grammatical moods such as the conditional mood, which expresses uncertainty ("I would be delighted if you came to my party"). Modal auxiliary verbs are special verbs which behave very differently from normal verbs. Next are some important differences.2. Modal verbs do not take "-s" in the third person.EXAMPLES:
He can speak Chinese.
She should be here by 9:00. 3. You use "not" to make modal verbs negative, even in Simple Present and Simple Past.EXAMPLES:
He should not be late.
They might not come to the party.4. Many modal verbs cannot be used in the past tenses or the future tenses.EXAMPLES:
He will can go with us. NOT CORRECT
She musted study very hard. NOT CORRECT
For reference: (用原排版)
ought to expectation (can use should) e.g. If you like Picasso, you ought to enjoy the exhibition.
recommendation (can use should)e.g. You ought to have more driving lessons before you take the test.
criticism (can use should) e.g. You ought not to shout at your mother like that.
don’t have to when you don’t need to do something (but you can if you want) e.g. You don’t have to go to school if you don’t want to.
have (got) to necessity, impersonal, not for personal feelings, but for a rule or situation. If you are unsure whether to use must or have to, it is usually safer to use have to.e.g. I have to get up early tomorrow to catch the train to the office.
must not prohibition (negative order) e.g. You must not leave the table until you have finished your dinner.
need as a normal verb e.g. Do you need me to help you
in questions (less usual) e.g. Need you make so much mess
needn’t not necessary to do something (unusual) e.g. You needn’t come to the party if you don’t want to.
don’t need to not necessary to do something (more used than needn’t) e.g. You don’t need to come to the party if you don’t want to.

Best of the World's Best
For 7 years in a row (1994-2000 inclusive) the United Nations voted Canada "the best COUNTRY in the world in which to live". In 2001 it was voted 2nd and in 2002 Canada was ranked 3rd. An 8th place ranking in 2003 was disappointing, but Canadians still feel that it is the best!.In January 2000, Vancouver (BC) was voted "the best CITY in the world in which to live" (in a 3-way tie with Zurich & Bern, Switzerland and Vienna, Austria).
Warming up by looking and listening
Hi, everyone. Look at the picture and tell me what it is like. Yes, the head of the man looks like the map of Canada. The man, representing Canada, is playing hockey, the national sport of the country Canada.

Words dissolve, exist,puzzle,crash,pull,float,exhaust
Expressions in time, lay eggs, give birth to, block out, cheer up, now that, break out, watch out
Patterns 1. It exploded loudly with fire and rock, which were in time to produce the water vapor, carbon dioxide, oxygen, nitrogen and other gases, which were to make the earth’s atmosphere. 2. Nobody knew that it was going to be different from other planets going round the sun. 3. It allowed the earth to dissolve harmful gases, which had become part of the earth’s atmosphere, into the oceans and seas. 4. This encouraged the development of early shellfish and all sorts of fish. 5. They produced young generally by laying eggs. 6. They are putting too much carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, which prevents heat from escaping from the earth into space. 7. Whether life will continue on the earth for millions of years to come will depend on whether this problem can be solved.

Procedures
I. Warming up by learning vocabulary
Good morning, class! Today, we are going to take Unit 4 Astronomy: the science of the stars. Before we read the text, let’s turn to page 99 and get familiarized with the vocabulary first. Pay attention to the making of the word. Study the prefixes, roots and suffixes in the words.
II. Pre-reading
1. Looking and saying
Have you ever wondered how the universe began Well I'm sure you may have many answers to this question, but I have one that perhaps, you may not have heard of yet. I will be giving you my theory on this subject. Now look at the screen and listen to me telling you something exciting.
科学家透露:宇宙可能有两个我们的宇宙和一个"隐藏的"宇宙共同"镶嵌"在"五维空间"中。在我们的宇宙早期,这两个宇宙发生了一次相撞事故,相撞产生的能量生成了我们宇宙中的物质和能量。      
2. Talking and sharing
Do you know how the universe began
In the 1920s in California, astronomer Edwin Hubble observed distant galaxies using an extremely powerful telescope. He made two mind-boggling (unbelievable) discoveries.
First, Hubble figured out that the Milky Way isn’t the only galaxy. He realized that faint, cloud-like objects in the night sky are actually other galaxies far, far away. The Milky Way is just one of billions of galaxies.
Second, Hubble discovered that the galaxies are constantly moving away from each other. In other words, the universe is expanding. The biggest thing that we know about is getting bigger all the time.
A few years later, Belgian astronomer Georges Lema tre used Hubble‘s amazing discoveries to suggest an answer to a big astronomy question: “How did the universe begin ”
3.Listening and reading aloud
Now please listen to the recording and then read the text aloud. Pay attention to how the native speaker is reading along and where the pauses are within each sentence. I will play the tape twice and you shall read aloud twice, too.
Reading and underlining
Next you are to read and underline all the useful expressions or collocations in the passage. Copy them into your notebook after class as homework.

Read the text again to complete the table below,
HOW LIFE BEGAN ON THE EARTH
What was the earth like after the “Big Bang”
Why was the earth different
How was life developed on earth
What did small clever animals do
HOW LIFE BEGAN ON THE EARTH
What was the earth like after the “Big Bang” A cloud of energetic dust at first and then a ball around the sun. In time as a result of its explosion, water vapor and many other gases were produced to make the earth’s atmosphere. Water then appeared when it cooled down, offering the possibility for the beginning of life.
Why was the earth different The arrival of small plants growing in the water filled the oceans and seas with oxygen, encouraging the development of small living things.
How was life developed on earth Carbon dioxide and air with oxygen helped life developed. First were insects and amphibians, and then appeared reptiles and dinosaurs, producing young by laying eggs. At first, came mammals producing young from within their bodies.
What did small clever animals do With hands and feet, they spread all over the earth, developing new methods of growing food, hunting and moving around, yet neglecting the environment protection, causing new problems for human being’s existence for good.
5. Reading the text once again to decide on the type of writing and summary of the text
Type of writing This is a descriptive writing.
Main idea of the passage The earth came into being after the “Big Bang”. Then small plants came growing in the water, followed by green plants appearing on land. In the end appeared small clever animals.
Topic sentence of 1st paragraph After the “Big Bang”, the earth was just a cloud of energetic dust.
Topic sentence of 2nd paragraph The earth was different because of the arrival of small plants growing in the water.
Topic sentence of 3rd paragraph Many millions of years later the first green plants began to appear on land.
Topic sentence of 4th paragraph Small clever animals appeared and spread all over the earth.
6. Going over the text to make a tree diagram and retell the story with its help
Reading and translating
As you have read the text times, you can surely put it into Chinese. Wang Hongqin, will you be the first to have a try, of putting the first paragraph into Chinese.
Closing down by watching a movie entitled From the earth to the moon《从地球到月球》
Through dramatization, this series relates the story of the conquest of the moon by the Americans, from the Mercury and Gemini projects to the legendary Apollo missions.
“这是我的一小步,却是人类的一大步。”美国太空人尼尔阿姆斯壮在1969年踏上月球的那一刻留下了这句名言。这句话代表人类文明的跃进,宣告了太空时代的到来。在阿姆斯壮登月近三十年后,好莱坞巨星汤姆汉克斯、金奖导演朗霍华与王牌製作人布莱恩葛瑟三人斥资6800万美金将美国登陆月球的太空计画拍摄成迷你影集【飞向月球】,重现当年太空人的奋斗历程,并在充满史诗的气魄中纪录了所有的艰辛、骄傲、失败与悲壮的牺牲,为人类的文明写下了精彩的一页。

(Modal verbs: may/ might, can/ could, will/ would, shall/ should, must/ can’t)
Introduction
In this period students will be first helped by the teacher to discover and learn to use some useful words and expressions, and then to discover and learn to use the following useful structures: may/ might, can/ could, will/ would, shall/ should, must/ can’t. The following steps of teaching may be taken: Warming up,Learning about grammar and Closing down by doing a quiz.
Objectives
To help students learn about Modal verbs
To help students discover and learn to use some useful words and expressions
To help students discover and learn to use some useful structures
Procedures
1. Warming up by discovering useful words and expressions
Turn to page 4 and do exercises No. 1, 2 and 3. Check your answers against your classmates’.
2. Reading and finding
Turn to page 1 and read the text of FESTIVALS AND CELEBRATIONS. As you read, find out examples of may/ might, can/ could, will/ would, shall/ should, must/ can used in the sentences.
3. Doing exercises No. 1, 2 and 3 on page 5
Turn to page 5 and do the exercises No. 1, 2 and 3 in groups of four.
4. Study the uses of Modal verbs
Next we go on to make a careful study of all the modal verbs.
(用原版)
ModalsWords like can, will, may, must, and a few others are called modals. Modal auxiliary verbs help other verbs express a meaning or an idea. Some common uses of the modals are these:Ability: He can speak English now.He couldn’t speak English a year ago.I’m not able to come to the game on Friday.Permission: All passengers may now board.We can board now.Obligation: You must fasten your seat belts. (strong)You should pay attention.

(Noun clauses as the subject)
Introduction
In this period students will be first helped by the teacher to discover and learn to use some useful words and expressions, and then to discover and learn to use the following useful structures: noun clauses as the subject. The following steps of teaching may be taken: warming up by discovering useful words and expressions,learning about grammar,reading more on subject clause,and c
losing down by doing exercises.
Objectives
To learn about noun clauses as the subject
To discover and learn to use some useful words and expressions
To discover and learn to use some useful structures
Procedures
1. Warming up by discovering useful words and expressions
Turn to page 28 and do exercises 1, 2 ,3 and 4 first. Check your answers against your classmates’.
2. Learning about grammar
Introduction to Noun Clauses
A noun clause is a clause which does the work of a noun in a sentence. It is a group of words containing a subject and a verb of its own. It can be used as a subject, predicate nominative, direct object, appositive, indirect object, or object of the preposition.Usually noun clauses begin with that, what, where, when, who, whom, which, whose, how, why, whether, etc. Examples:He said that he would not come. We were all curious to know what he had done. Nobody knows when the registration will begin. We all wanted to find out who the winner was. Whom they were in contact with on the day of the robbery is of great interest to the police. Jane is not sure which university she should apply for. The judges had a hard time deciding whose painting was the best. How the baby fell from the window is a mystery. They asked the boy why he had hit his classmate. Whether you like it or not is not the issue. Uses of Noun ClausesNoun Clauses can be used in the following ways:a.As the subject of a verbWhy she kept on crying puzzled every one.noun clausemain verb b. As the objectNobody knows how he got involved in gangland activities verbnoun clausec. As the complement of the verb "to be" or predicativeWhat we are worried about is that he may have another heart attack.The question is why they could escape through the front door when there were so many guards there.
Find the noun clauses in the following sentences and tell how they are used. (Subject, predicate nominative, direct object, appositive, indirect object, or object of the preposition)
1. How the prisoner escaped is a mystery.
2. My feeling is that the robbery was an inside job.
3. Everyone is wondering how he could just disappear.
4. The news that he had escaped frightened the whole town.
5. The police have offered whoever finds the stolen diamonds a reward.
6. The family has had no word about where he might be.
7. That we were ready to go was a miracle.
8. Give whoever wants to go a ride to the game.
9. That you are losing ground was evident from the polls.
10. Whoever injured the handicapped woman must be feeling guilty.
Keys: 1. How the prisoner escaped →subject2. that the robbery was an inside job → predicate nominative3. how he could just disappear → direct object4. that he had escaped → appositive5. whoever finds the stolen diamonds → indirect object6. where he might be → object of the preposition7. That we were ready to go → subject8. whoever wants to go → indirect object9. That you are losing ground → subject10. Whoever injured the handicapped woman → subject
3. 学习主语从句
一、由what(whatever,whoever)等代词引导的主语从句。
What they are after is money. 他们追求的是金钱。
Whatever was said here must be kept secret. 这里说的话都应当保密。
二、由连词that引导的主语从句。其中that一般不可省略,但若用it作形式主语, that从句后置时,则可省略。为避免头重脚轻,我们倾向用it开头,后接be,seem等。如果句子是疑问形式,就只能用带it的结构。
That money doesn't grow on trees should be obvious.
金钱不能从树上长出来是显而易见的。
It is obvious(that)money doesn't grow on trees .显而易见,金钱是不能从树上长出来的。
Has it been announced when the planes are to take off?飞机什么时候起飞宣布了没有?
注意:
1)选用what还是用that引导主语从句要根据关联词在从句中是否担任成分而定。且what(以及whatever,whoever等)引导的主语从句一般不用it作形式主语。
What he said is true.他说的是真的。(what在其引导的主语从句中作宾语。)
That China is a great socialist country is well known.(=It’s well known that…)众所周知,中国是一个伟大的社会主义国家。(that在其引导的主语从句中不作任何成分,也无词义,只起连接作用。)
2)it引导的强调句与it作形式主语的复合句不可混淆。it引导的强调句是用来对句中某一成分加以强调,其结构为:“It is(或was)+强调部分+that(或who)…”强调句去掉It is(或was)…that(或who)…框架后,剩余部分为一个完整的句子。
It was I that(who) met Mary in the street yesterday.是我昨天在街上遇见了玛丽。(强调主语)
3)常见的用it作形式主语的复合句结构:
*It is+形容词(necessary,strange,important,wonderful,possible,likely,等)+that从句,从句中常用虚拟语气。
It’s necessary that he write something in English.他用英语写点东西是必要的。
It’s strange that she did not go to school yesterday.奇怪的是她昨天没去上学。
*It is+名词(a fact,a pity ,no wonder,good news,等)+that从句
It's a pity that she should have said so.真遗憾她竟然会这么说。
*It is+过去分词(said,reported,decided,unknown等)+that从句
Its said that our English teacher will go abroad next week.据说我们英语老师下周要去出国。
*It +不及物动词(seems,appears,happens, matters等)+that从句
It seems that she is in great need of help.看来她急帮忙。
4)主语为从句时,一般要用单数谓语动词形式;但如果引导的从句作主语、代表复数概念(常可从表语上看出)时,谓语动词则常用复数形式:
What we need is water. 我们需要的是水。
What we need are useful books. 我们需要的是有用的书。
三、由连接代词或连接副词(或if, whether)引导的主语从句。
When they will come hasn't been made public.他们什么时候回来还没有宣布。
Whether I’ll attend the meeting hasn’t been decided.=It hasn’t been decided whether(if) I’ll attend the meeting.我是否参加会议还未决定。

Period 2 A sample lesson plan for Learning about Language
(Noun clauses as the appositive)
Introduction
In this period students will be first helped by the teacher to warm up by discovering useful words and expressions. Then they go on to read and find collocations and do exercises. The ready used materials for “Noun clauses as the appositive” are offered for class reading. The period will end by students doing a quiz.
Objectives
To learn about Noun clauses as the appositive
To discover and learn to use some useful words and expressions
To discover and learn to use some useful structures
Procedures
1. Warming up by discovering useful words and expressions
Turn to page 36 and do exercises 1, 2 ,3, and 4 first. Check your answers against your classmates’.
2. Reading and finding
Turn to page 34 and read the text A TRIP ON “THE TRUE NORTH”. As you read, find out sentences with noun clauses as the appositive.
Keys: The idea that they would cross the whole continent was exciting. / The idea that you can cross Canada in less than five days is just wrong. / The fact that ocean ships can go there surprise many people.
3. Doing exercises
Turn to page 37 and do the exercises in groups of four.
4. Ready used materials for “Noun clauses as the appositive”
Noun clauses as the appositive
An appositive is a word, phrase or clause which is placed directly next to a preceding noun or pronoun and which renames or explains that noun or pronoun.Examples:My friend Henry won the prize, a two-year scholarship.The belief that there will be nuclear war is widespread.The idea that computers will recognize human voices surprises many people.The possibility that the majority of the labor force will work at home is often discussed.同位语从句的特点是由一个抽象名词+that从句构成,引导词一般是that, 而且that在从句中不充当任何成分。这些抽象名词有:news, idea, fact, doubt, evidence, promise, rumor, hope, truth, belief, message等,同位语从句是对抽象名词进行说明解释。1. The news that our football team at last defeated Korea made the fans wild with joy. c.f.: The news that made the fans wild with joy was from the radio.2. There is much evidence that the crime rate in this city is on the rise.3. Einstein came to the conclusion that the maximum speed possible in the universe is that of light. 爱因斯坦得出的结论是宇宙中最大速度是光速。
5. 学习同位语从句
1. 从属连词that、whether引导的同位语从句。He has the hope that he will become a college student. 他有上大学这么个愿望。The question whether he should do this troubled him. 是否该做这件事这一问题使他很烦恼。注意:由连接词that (一般不可省略) 引导的同位语从句,在句子结构上与关系代词that引导的定语从句有相似之处,但有区别:1) The news that he had landed on the moon spread all over the country. 他登上月球的消息传遍全国。2)The news that John told us interested all of us.他告诉我们的消息使大家都感趣。解析:1)句中that从句中本身的内容就是“news ”内容本身,that在句子中不充当任何成分,起连接作用,所以,本句中的that从句 是同位语从句;而2)句中that从句说明“ news ”是怎样获得的,不涉及“news”的内容, that从句中充当 “tell”的宾语,所以,本句中的that从句 是定语从句。另外,可带同位语从句的名词主要是少数一些可加入具体内容的表示信息、思想等概念的名词,如:fact,news,idea,truth,belief,doubt,hope,possibility,order,wish,message,promise,suggestion,report,reply,problem, question, thought等。2. 连接副词how,when,where等引导的同位语从句。You have no idea how worried I was!你不知道我是多么着急。
6.Closing down by doing a quiz
Underline the appositives in the following sentences1. My son, the policeman, will be visiting us next week.
2. The captain ordered the ship's carpenters to assemble the shallop, a large rowboat.
3. Walter, the playboy and writer, is very attached to his mother, Mrs. Hammon.
4. The actor Paul Newman directed only one picture.
5. Elizabeth Teague, a sweet and lovable girl, grew up to be a mentally troubled woman.
Underline and punctuate the appositives in the following sentences. Remember: not all require punctuation.6. Sweetbriar a company known throughout the South is considering a nationwide advertising campaign.
7. An above-average student and talented musician John made his family proud.
8. The extremely popular American film Titanic was widely criticized for its mediocre script.
9. The greatest American film ever made Citizen Kane won only one Academy Award.
10. 60 Minutes the TV news magazine program featured a story on the popular singer Whitney Houston.

About the topic and the structures单元话题和结构 本单元以节日为话题,介绍了世界各地的一些节日的含义、由来和民俗。通过本单元的学习,可以帮助学生更多地了解节日、体味文化;同时又可以引导学生理解、尊重不同的文化和习俗。本单元语言功能项目是:方向、位置和情感。本单元语言结构项目是“名词从句作同位语”。本单元还要求学生学习写作“描写文:报道”。《金色教案》教学设计在单元课时划分上与课本保持一致,即“阅读课、知识课、运用课三课时/三课型划分”。但在实际教学过程中,建议教师依据学生基础、教学条件、学校安排的因素,对课本、对《金色教案》教学设计重新划分课时,裁剪、拼接使用提供的材料,以便“物尽所用”,达到最佳教学效果。教师也可以参照《金色教案》提供的“实际教学过程课时划分建议”进行教学。
Period 1Reading 阅读课 Warming Up课本提供了一个关于加拿大概况的小测试,目的是激活学生已有的知识和经验,为进入本单元的学习作好准备。教师也可以参考本书提供的Warming up by talking about Canada或者 Warming up by looking and listening导入新课。Pre-reading课本通过四组问题激活学生有关旅行和加拿大的知识和经历。本单元阅读是“在旅途中看加拿大”,因此,“读前”部分首先提问学生经历过的旅行,然后提问学生最想去的国家,由此切入到本单元的话题“加拿大”。然后进一步提出“你是否想去加拿大旅行 你想到那儿去看什么 ” “你会使用哪三个词语来描述加拿大 ” 教师也可以利用本书 Pre-reading by questioning and answering进行操作。Reading部分是篇游记,记述了李黛予和刘倩去加拿大看她们的表兄妹的途中见闻。乘火车横穿加拿大之前,她们表兄妹的朋友林丹尼向他们介绍了加拿大的概况,包括面积、地貌、城市、人口、生态环境等。一路上,他们看到了加拿大的自然美景,野生动物,并因中途停靠卡尔加里(Calgary)而联想到卡尔加里大赛马会(Calgary Stampede)。加拿大地广人稀,多数人住在美—加边境。本文还提到了桑德贝(Thunder Bay),五大湖(the Great Lakes),温哥华(Vancouver),多伦多(Toronto),介绍了加拿大的淡水资源。本文对加拿大的介绍涉及面较宽,但都没有详述,这给学生留下了足够的思维空间。建议教师使用本书提供的Talking and sharing, Listening and reading aloud, Reading and underlining, Reading and transferring information, Understanding difficult sentences, Closing down by acting the text 帮助学生掌握课文的形式、理解课文的内容,进而活用课文。 Comprehending部分由三部分组成:回答问题、写出正确信息和画路线图。这些不仅检查学生对阅读课文的细节的把握,比如,要求学生介绍卡尔加里大赛马会、列举加拿大蕴藏的两种自然资源、写出有关桑德贝的地理位置的正确信息等,而且检查学生根据阅读课文内容所作的推理和判断,比如,“Why do many people want to live in Vancouver ”一题,要求学生联系文中相关信息,做出因果推理。此外,还检查学生的读图能力,比如,“Why would ships be able to reach the center of Canada ”一题,要求学生把地图和课文两方面的信息综合起来。最后,要求学生在地图上画出横穿加拿大的路线图,抓住文中人物的行踪也就抓住了行文的线索,零散的信息就有机地串联起来了。
Period 2Learning about language 知识课 Learning about Language部分首先通过构词法的学习扩大学生的词汇量并培养学生的词汇生成能力。用阅读课文中的词和信息编对话和填空,旨在提高学生活用词汇的能力。语法部分通过从阅读课文中找例句和造句的练习教学同位语从句。教师可以参考本书提供的下列步骤进行教学:Warming up by discovering useful words and expressions, Reading and finding, Doing exercises, Ready used materials for “Noun clauses as the appositive”, Closing down by doing a quiz。
Period 3Using language运用课 Using Language部分综合训练听说读写的能力。听与写、听与说有机结合在一起,使学生通过填空、讨论的形式进一步学习有关加拿大的知识——加拿大的居民、语言等。阅读部分继续加拿大之行:从多伦多到蒙特利尔(Montreal)。本文提到了枫树,加拿大国家塔(CN Tower),尼亚加拉瀑布(Niagara Falls),多伦多猛龙队(Toronto Raptors),蓝鸟队(Blue Jays),中国城(Chinatown),圣劳伦斯河(St Lawrence River)等等,充分展示了异域文化风情。写的部分是两篇报告,一个写途中所见,另一个写途中所闻。教师可以根据课本上的提示,向学生介绍“报告”的写作方法。写之前,先让学生根据本单元的两篇阅读完成图表上所要填写的信息。写报告时,要求学生自拟题目,先提出话题,再根据图表信息详述所见或所闻,最后作一小结。本书提供的下列步骤可供参考: Warming up by listening and writing,Speaking, Reading and underlining, Acting, Closing down by having a guided writing。

Period 3Using language运用课 Using language为综合教学,训练听说读写能力。听力部分的内容介绍三位科学巨匠,不仅通过听力填表的形式训练学生捕捉细节的能力,还通过四选一的形式帮助学生找主题思想。在解释对与错的过程中,教师可以适当地介绍一下概括主题的方法。阅读部分是一个科幻小故事,通过“我”和“我的朋友”乘宇宙飞船登月球的经历,介绍了重量、失重和地球引力等科学道理。说和写部分以Visiting the moon为话题,要求学生讨论登月球需要携带的物品和在月球上可能遇到的困难,并要求学生找出克服这些困难的方法。教师可以根据课本上的提示,向学生介绍“先分述后总结”的写作方法。提出问题的解决方案时,要求学生选用适当的“指示”用语。教师可以参考使用本书提供的教学步骤:Warming up by listening and reading aloud,Understanding difficult sentences,Reading and underlining,Doing reading comprehension exercises,Discussing,Guided writing,Acting a text play 和Closing down by filling a form
