Module 5 CloningPart One: Teaching Design第一部分教学设计Period 1: Reading—Frankenstein's MonsterGoalsTo learn about cloning●To learn to read with strategiesProcedures▇Warming up by looking and sayingHello, class. Look at this photo. What is it? Wang Lin, could you tell the class something about this photo?It is the photo of Dolly the sheep (1996-2003).Dolly the sheep became a scientific sensation when her birth was announced in1997. Her relatively early death in February 2003 fuels the debate about theethics of cloning research and the long-term health of clones.What is it about Dolly that is so special? How was she created? And did shedie young because she was a clone? That is what we are going to learn thisweek. Cloning! This is the topic this week!What is “Cloning”?Cloning is the process of creating an identical copy of an original. A clone inthe biological sense, therefore, is a single cell (like bacteria, lymphocytes etc.)or multi-cellular organism that is genetically identical to another livingorganism. Sometimes this can refer to "natural" clones made either when an organism reproduces asexually or when two genetically identical individuals are produced by accident (as with identical twins), but in common parlance the clone is an identical copy by some conscious design. Also see clone (genetics).The term clone is derived from κλων, the Greek word for "twig". In horticulture, the spelling clon was used until the twentieth century; the final e came into use to indicate the vowel is a "long o" instead of a "short o". Since the term entered the popular lexicon in a more general context, the spelling clone has been used exclusively.■Reading to get background informationNow go to page 41 to read the short paragraph about the film Frankenstein.While reading try to cut/ the sentences into thought groups, blacken the predicates, underline the useful expressions and darken the connectives.Now you have read this paragraph, try to c opy all the useful expressions into your Expression Book and make your own sentences with them.▇Before you readWe shall go on to read the text on page 42. But before that please go over the word list for this module, paying attention to the pronunciation of the word, the relationship between its pronunciation and its spelling.▇While you readNow open your book to page 42 to read the text and cut/ the sentences into thought groups, blacken the predicates, underline the useful expressions and darken the connectives at the same time.▇After you readCopy all the useful expressions into your Expression Book and make your own sentences with them.■Closing down by talking about cloning in fictionTo end this period we shall watch a TV program telling about cloning in fiction.Cloning has been widely explored in science-fiction.●Star Wars (film series): A race of ali ens called Kaminoans use an accelerated cloning technique to create an army of over a million human soldiers that participate in a galaxy-wide conflict known as the Clone Wars.●The Boys From Brazil (novel and film adaptation)●Brave New World: the popul ation is grown. The lower castes are cloned from a single egg (Bokanofskyfied).●The 6th Day: a film whose main themes are clones (such as the protagonist 'being' one) and branching ethical cloning problems.●The Island: another film about the ethics of cloning. Follows the story of clones grown in a secret complex for the sole purpose of killing them and using their organs as replacements for their original versions in the real world, all while being convinced they are living purposeful lives.●Jurassic Park:cloning of dinosaurs by the use of prehistoric insects that sucked their blood.(DNA cloning of the blood)●The House of the Scorpion:young adult novel following the life of a clone named Matteo Alacran.●Metal Gear Solid●"The Clone" by H.G.Wells●"Cloning": Novel by David Shear, first published in 1972, about a man who discovers he is a clone.
