Warming up by learning about animalsLook at the photos below and listen to me telling you about the animals, the endangered animals.The Giant Panda is a mammal now usually classified in the bear family, Ursidae,that is native to central China.The Giant Panda lives in mountainous regions, like Sichuan and Tibet. TheGiant Panda is the symbol of the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), a conservationorganization. Toward the latter half of the 20th century, the panda also became somewhat of a national emblem for China, and is now used in Chinese gold coins.Giant Pandas are an endangered species, threatened by continued loss of habitat and by a very low birthrate, both in the wild and in captivity. About 1,600 are believed to survive in the wild.Milu deer is a Chinese deer. It has a long tail, wide hooves, and branched antlers. Another Chinese name for it is“four unlikes,.”because the animals were seen as having the horns of a stag, the neckof a camel, the foot of a cow, and the tail of an ass.These animals were first made known to Western science in the 19th century, by FatherArm and David, a French missionary working in China. At the time, the only surviving herd was in a preserve belonging to the Chinese emperor. The last herd of Milu deers that remained in China were eaten by Western and Japanese troops that were present at the time of the Boxer Rebellion.These deer are now found in zoos around the world, and a herd of Milu deer was reintroduced to DafengReserve, China in the late 1980s. They are classified a s “critically endangered.” in the wild, but do not appear to have suffered from a genetic bottleneck because of small population size.A tiger is a large cat famous for its beautiful fur of orange striped with black.Tigers live in Asia and are being very rare. This is due to people hunting themfor their fur and destroying the forests they live in.II. Pre-reading1．Defining wildlifeWhat does the world wildlife mean?The term wildlife refers to living organisms that are not in any way artificial or domesticated and which exist in natural habitats. Wildlife can refer to flora (plants) but more monly refers to fauna (animals). Needless to say, wildlife is a very general term for life in various ecosystems. Deserts, rainforests, plains, and other areas—including the most built-up urban sites—all have distinct forms of wildlife.Humankind has historically tended to separate civilization from wildlife in a number of ways; besides the obvious difference in vocabulary, there are differing expectations in the legal, social, and moral sense. This has been reason for debate throughout recorded history. Religions have often declared certain animals to be sacred, and in modern times concern for the environment has provoked activists to protest the exploitation of wildlife for human benefit or entertainment.2.Reading to the recordingNow turn to page 26, listening and reading to the recording of the text. Try to keep pace with the native reader, making your reading resemble that of the reader, in speed, in intonation and in pronunciation.3.Reading and transformingNow you are to read the text for information to fill in the form.4.Reading and underliningNext you are to read the text and underline all the collocations at the same time.III. Closing up by matching animals to five risk categoriesDifferent endangered species appear on different endangered species lists. And people who are trying to protecting animal use the following five risk categories to group the unlucky animal.Now in groups of four try to group all the unlucky animals found in China.2019-2020年高中英语Unit4Wildlifeprotection-usingLanguage教案新课标人教版必修2Part One: Teaching DesignPeriod 3: A sample lesson plan for Using Language(ABOUT DINOSAURS)AimsTo read and listen about dinosaursTo speak about helping the dodoTo write to the dodoProceduresI. Warming up by reading to the tapeLet’s warm up by reading aloud to the recording of the textABOUT DINOSAURS on page 30.II. Listening about DINOSAURSNow I’d like to tell you something about DINOSAURS■In formation about DinosaurDinosaur means terrible lizard in Latin. They were called that because people used to think dinosaurs were lizards, but they were not. Dinosaurs first appeared about 200 million years ago. 65 million years ago, many kinds of dinosaurs became extinct. Birds are a special type of dinosaur and they were the only kind to live until today. There were many kinds of dinosaurs. Some ate plants and some ate meat. Thelargest dinosaurs were plant-eaters like apatosaurus and brachiosaurus. They were the largest animals to ever walk on dry land.Other plant-eaters had special weapons to help them fight off the meat-eaters. For example, triceratops had three horns on its face, ankylosaurus was covered in boney plates, and stegosaurus had spikes on its tail.The meat-eaters all ran around on their back legs like people do. Some were very large, like tyrannosaurus, andsome were small, like psognathus. It was the smaller sized meat-eaters that evolvedinto birds. One of the first birds was archaeopteryx, but it looked half like a dinosaur.There were large flying reptiles that lived at the same time as dinosaurs called pterosaurs, but they were not closely related to dinosaurs. There were also many kinds of large reptiles that could swim, like ichthyosaurs and pleisiosaurs, but they weren’t clos ely related to dinosaurs either.III. Reading and copyingNext we shall go back to the text ABOUT DINOSAURS on page 30 again to read it and copy down all the expressions into your notebook.IV. Reading to answer questionsRead the questions in the table below and scan the text to answer them.V. Listening about the dodoHave you ever heard of the dodo, an animal that has also disappeared from the earth?The Mauritius Dodo (Raphus cucullatus, called Didus ineptus by Linnaeus), moremonly just Dodo, was a metre-high flightless bird of the island of Mauritius. TheDodo, which is now extinct, lived on fruit and nested on the ground.Next we are going to listen to the tape and do exercises 1 and 2 on page 30 on dodo.VI. Speaking in pairs about helping the dodoZhao Yannan: The Dodo was driven to extinction by sailors when they discovered theisland of Maritius in the 17th century. It is one of the first documented humaninduced extinctions.Zhao Yanfei: What a pity that we can not find any dodo now. Imagine we are with the dodo,Yannan, what could we do to help it?Zhao Yannan: Then I would intend to hide it in a cave, so that sailors could not find it.Zhao Yanfei: If I were there, I would try to trap them as they were catching and killing the dodo. Putting man whois harmful to the dodo in a cage and attacking him is the best way to protect and save the dodo.Zhao Yannan: I’d like to and I’m ready to, te ach man how to be friends with animals, including the dodo. Theman and the dodo can be living side by side on the earth. They can be happy together.ZhaoYanfei: I would rather not tell you what I think of man. He is selfish and cruel. He cares only for himself andthat is why so many animals have disappeared from this earth. Putting the bad men in a cage is the only way out, Iam sure.VII. Closing down by writing to the dodoAll right now, boys and girls, to end this period next you are to write a letter or an email to the dodo telling him what you are g do to save him.。
