leading-edge technology.Low-cost,dependable and small modern cameras are a big help.Cameras placed in hard-to-reach places have taken videos of everything from small desert cats to larger snowloving felines(猫科)in the northern Rocky Mountains.These cameras are important tools to learn new information on wildlife.Some videos help scientists see the effects of climate change.For example,the desert animal javelina and the treeloving coatimundi(长鼻浣熊)have been caught on cameras north of their normal home.This could mean global warming is enlarging their living area northward.Researchers use cameras along with global positioning systems,or GPS.They attach GPS devices(设备)to mule deer and antelope (羚羊)in and around Yellowstone National Park.Then they can record their movements,or migrations(迁移).These cameras can be left in very rural(荒里予的)areas for days,weeks or even months.They can provide information on how many animals are moving over a given period of time.Rural video can show details about animal behavior,such as the calls made by migrating mule deer.Also,some cameras record animal life,showing everything from bison in Saskatchewan,Canada,to the underwater weed forest off California ' s Channel Islands.However,rural cameras have their problems too.Animals such as wolverines and bears sometimes attack them.Scientists do not know if the attacks are the results of anger or interest.Also,the devices have become popular tools to help hunters look for animals.Some people argue that it is unfair to use the cameras that way.Even with such problems,rural cameras are clearly an important scientific tool in researching wild animals.1.Which of the following helps scientists know about climate change?A.How active animals are.B.Where animals go.C.What animals eat.D.When animals move.答案:B解析:细节理解题。
Unit 4 Wildlife protectionPart One: Teaching Design (第一部分:教学设计)Period 1: A sample lesson plan for reading(HOW DAISY LEARNED TO HELP WILDLIFE)AimsTo talk about endangered speciesTo read about wildlife protectionProceduresI. 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 bearfamily, Ursidae, that is native to central China.The Giant Panda lives in mountainous regions, like Sichuan andTibet. The Giant Panda is the symbol of the World WildlifeFund (WWF), a conservation organization. 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. AnotherChinese name for it is “four unlikes,.”because the animals were seenas having the horns of a stag, the neck of a camel, the foot of a cow, andthe tail of an ass.These animals were first made known to Western science in the 19th century, by Father Arm 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 wasreintroduced to Dafeng Reserve, China in the late 1980s. They are classified as “critically endan gered.” 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 orangestriped with black. Tigers live in Asia and are becoming veryrare. This is due to people hunting them for their fur anddestroying 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 commonly 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 thelegal, social, and moral sense. This has been reason for debate throughout recordedhistory. Religions have often declared certain animals to be sacred, and inmodern times concern for the environment has provoked activists to protestthe 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.Period 2: A sample lesson plan for Learning about Language(The Present Progressive Passive Voice)AimsTo learn about The Present Progressive Passive V oiceTo discover useful words and expressionsTo discover useful structures.ProceduresI. Warming up by acting a text playGood morning class. To begin with we shall put our text HOW DAISY LEARNED TO HELP WILDLIFE on stage, that is, to act out our story. Now the class acting team with their text play of HOW DAISY LEARNED TO HELP WILDLIFE!II. Discovering useful words and expressions1. Doing vocabulary exercisesTurn to page 28 and do the vocabulary exercises 1, 2 and 3. You can simply write your answers in the blanks on the very page of 28.2. Playing a gameLet’s go on to play the game described on the top of the page 29. The following sentences are to be passed on.▲Plant native plants in your backyard.▲Do not dump weeds in the bush.▲Build a frog pond in your backyard.▲Put your rubbish in the bin.▲Leave your pets at home.▲Do not take anything out of the park.▲Encourage your friends to keep patches of bush as wildlife habitats.▲Join a community group and offer to do voluntary work.▲Find out about conservation activities happening in your local area.▲Participate in local clean-up, tree planting and weed control activities.▲Learn About Threatened Species▲Look out for wildlife▲Refuse to buy any rare or endangered plant or animal product.▲Be alert and drive slowly at dawn and dusk in rural areaswhere wildlife may be active.III. Studying The Present progressive Passive Voice1. Passive VoiceThe passive voice is used when focusing on the person or thing affected by an action.The Passive is formed: Passive Subject + To Be + Past ParticipleIt is often used in business and in other areas where the object of the action is more important than those who perform the action. For Example: We have produced over 20 different models in the past two years. Changes to: Over 20 different models have been produced in the past two years.If the agent (the performer of the action) is important, use “by.” For Example:Tim Wilson wrote The Flight to Brunnswick in 1987.The Flight to Brunnswick was written in 1987 by Tim Wilson.Only verbs that take an object can be used in the passive.The following chart includes sentences changed from the active to the passive in the principal tenses.2. Passive Verb FormationThe passive forms of a verb are cr eated by combining a form of the “to be verb.” with the past participle of the main verb. Other helping verbs are also sometimes present: “The measure couldhave been killed in committee.” The passive can be used, also, in various tenses. Let’s take a look at the passive forms of “design.”IV. Reading and identifyingSince you are clear about Passive Verb Formation, go back to page 26 and scan the text for all the examples of The Present Progressive Passive V oice.Now try to put the following sentences into The Present Progressive Passive V oice.▲They are producing this new drug.▲Antelope is looking at her.▲They are killing us for the wool.▲They are destroying the farm.V. Discovering useful structuresTo consolidate your learning of The Present Progressive Passive V oice, turn to page 29 and do the grammar exercises 1, 2 and 3, also on the very page of 29.VI. Closing down by playing a gameTo end this period go to page 29 and play the game called “Tell me what is happening?” Ask questions containing The Present Progressive Passive V oice.Period 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 tel l you something about DINOSAURS■In formation about DinosaurDinosaur means terrible lizard in Latin. They were called that because peopleused to think dinosaurs were lizards, but they were not. Dinosaurs firstappeared about 200 million years ago. 65 million years ago, many kinds ofdinosaurs 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 atemeat. The largest dinosaurs were plant-eaters like apatosaurus andbrachiosaurus. They were the largest animals to ever walk on dryland.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 stegosaurushad spikes on its tail.The meat-eaters all ran around on their back legs like people do. Some were very large, liketyrannosaurus, and some were small, like compsognathus. It was thesmaller sized meat-eaters that evolved into birds. One of the first birdswas 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 closely 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 byLinnaeus), more commonly just Dodo, was a metre-high flightlessbird of the island of Mauritius. The Dodo, 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 onpage 30 on dodo.VI. Speaking in pairs about helping the dodoZhao Yannan: The Dodo was driven to extinction by sailors when they discovered the island ofMaritius 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 arewith 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 who is 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, teach man how to be friends with animals, including the dodo. The man 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 and that is why so many animals have disappeared from this earth. Putting the bad men in a cage is the only way out, I am 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 going to do to save him.Part Two: Teaching Resources (第二部分:教学资源)Section 1: A text structure analysis of HOW DAISY LEARNED TO HELP WILDLIFE I. Type of writing and summary of the ideaII. A text play (课本剧)of HOW DAISY LEARNED TO HELP WILDLIFEDaisy: (waking) Who are you? Why are you here in my bedroom?Chair: Excuse me. I am the famous Flying Chair.Daisy: What are you here for?Chair: I am here to take you on a trip. Where would you go?Daisy: I’d like to see animals that gave furs to make this sweater of mine.Chair: During the history of the earth there have lived on the earth many, many kinds of animals. But many have disappeared because of various reasons.Daisy: Yes, you are right. I learned from books that tens of millions of years ago, a rare newspecies of dinosaur, a bird-like dinosaur, came into being. It could climb trees and was very lovely. Then it died out because something hit the earth suddenly, putting much dust into the air. So the earth got too hot for the animal to live on.Chair: But no one knows for sure what caused all those ancient animals to die out, disappearing from the earth for ever.Daisy:I shall get dressed and put on my jeans and sweater soon. Then let’s flyaway to Tibet China to see the antelopes.Chair: Here we are in Tibet! T urn around. There is a antelope there with a sadface.Antelope: Hello, friends. Welcome to my home. You two look so friendly, unlike those who cameto kill us to use our furs make sweaters.Daisy: Sweaters like the one I am wearing?Oh, I am terribly sorry.Antelope: The bad men came in groups to kill my family members forthe wool. They took it from under our stomach.Chair: I shall take a picture of you and the antelope, to be shown to all the world people. Daisy:Come Antelope! Let’s have a pic ture taken together. We shall be off to Zimbabwe too see elephants there.Chair: Here we are. This is a national park for animals. People came to see them and help with them.Daisy: Look, there comes an excited elephant. Hello, dear Elephant! Why are you so excited? Elephant: We are all excited because things have changed a lot here.Chair: Why? What happened?Elephant:We became endangered years ago. People came to destroy the farm and kill us for trunks. They are actually our long teeth.Daisy: I have heard of that. They take your teeth and make them into art work.Chair:Man is really selfish and disgusting. But Daisy is a nice girl. Now let’s have a picture taken together.Elephant: Those bad men used to come and kill us. But now are well protected by thegovernment and the good people. We are happy now.Daisy: Good- bye, Elephant!Chair: Take care, Daisy. We shall hurry to our last stop, the thick rain forest in South America. Daisy: Wow! Look to the right. A lovely mother monkey is there. She seems to be rubbing herself. Hi, Monkey Mother! What are you doing?Monkey: I am rubbing a millipede insect over my body to protect myself from the mosquitoes. Daisy: How intelligent you are!Monkey: It contains a powerful drug which affects mosquitoes. There are lots of plants and little animals in the rain forest here which can be helpful to man.Daisy: Is that so? I am going to take photos of all those useful plants and animals. I will show the photos to my classmates so that they understand you lovely animals and the forest better. I will apply to be allowed to work here to help you get a better living in the forest.Monkey: Thank you so much! Some unfriendly people came to catch us, to put us in the zoo in the city. We monkeys prefer living in the forest.Daisy: Good- bye, Monkey! I will report what I learned on this trip to WWF. I will invite all my schoolmates to join us in the protecting project. The future is to be bright for both you the animals and us the human beings. See you!Section 2: Background information on wildlife protectionI. 中国国家重点保护动物名录■国家一级保护动物最凶猛的雕:金雕1.金雕Aquila chrysaetos2.白鹳Ciconia ciconia3.黑麂Muntyacus crinifrons4.云豹Neofelis nebulosa5.华南虎Panthera tigris6.豹Panthera pardusfusca7.白颈长尾雉Syrmaticus ellioti 8.黄腹角雉Tragopan caboti■国家二级保护动物鬣羚:真兽下纲,反刍亚目,有角下目,牛科1.鬣羚Capricornis sumatraensis2.豺Cuon alpinus3.金猫Felis temmincki4.短尾猴Macaca arctoides5.猕猴Macaca mulatta6.穿山甲Manis pentadactyla7.黄喉貂Martes flavigula8.斑羚Naemorhedus goral 9.大灵猫Viverra zibetha10.小灵猫Viverricula indica 11.雀鹰Accipiter nisus12.赤腹鹰Accipiter soloensis 13.苍鹰Accipiter gentilis14.鸳鸯Aix galericulata 15.乌雕Aquila clanga16.白腹山雕Aquila fasciata 17.短耳鸮Asio flammeus18.长耳鸮Asio otus 19.雕鸮Bubo bubo20.灰脸鹰Butastur indicus 21.大鵟Buteo hemilasius22.毛脚鵟Buteo lagopus 23.普通鵟Buteo buteo24.红脚隼Falco vespertinus 25.灰背隼Falco columbarius26.游隼Falco peregrinus 27.燕隼Falco subbuteo28.红隼Falco tinnunculus 29.领鸺鹠Glaucidium brodiei30.斑头鸺鹠Glaucidium cuculoides 31.白鹇Lophura nycthemera32.小隼Mrcrohierax caerulescens 33.鸢Milvus migrans34.鹰鸮Ninox scutulata 35.小杓鹬Numenius borealis36.领角鸮Otus bakkamoena 37.红角鸮Otus scops38.勺鸡Pucrasia macrolopla 39.蛇雕Spilornis cheela40.鹰雕Spizaetus nipalensis 41.褐林鸮Strix leptogrammica42.草鸮Tyto capensis 43.大鲵Andrias davidianus44.虎纹蛙Rana tigrina 45.拉步甲Carabus lafossaeiII. What is WWF?WWF, the global conservation organization was originally known as World Wildlife Fund.In 1986, it changed its name to World Wide Fund For Nature (except inthe US and Canada) to better represent the spread of its work. It wasfounded on September 11, 1961 by, among others, the biologist Sir JulianHuxley, Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands, Max Nicholson and thenaturalist and painter Sir Peter Scott who designed the original black andwhite panda logo. It is one of the world’s largest environmental organizations, with a network ofoffices in nearly 60 countries and a secretariat in Gland, Switzerland.Probably the most famous name associated with WWF is HRH The Duke of Edinburgh. The Dukewas the first President of WWF-UK from its foundation in 1961 to 1982,International President of WWF (1981-2019), and is now PresidentEmeritus.WWF is dedicated to stopping the degradation of the planet’s natural environment and building a future in which humans live in harmony with nature, by: ▲conserving the world’s biological diversity,▲ensuring that the use of renewable natural resources is sustainable,▲promoting the reduction of pollution and wasteful consumption.WWF has a factual, science-based approach to conservation, which focuses on six priority issues of global concern: forests, oceans and coasts, fresh water, endangered species, and the insidious threats of toxic chemicals and climate change. For each of these issues, WWF has developed measurable targets and runs more than 1,200 field projects around the world in any year.III. AntelopeThe antelope are a group of herbivorous African animals of the family Bovidae, distinguished by apair of hollow horns on their heads. These animals are spread relativelyevenly throughout the various subfamilies of Bovidae and many are moreclosely related to cows or goats than each other. There are many differentspecies of antelope, ranging in size from tiny to very big. They typically have a light and elegant figure, slender, graceful limbs, small cloven hoofs, and a short tail. Antelope have powerful hindquarters and when startled they run with a peculiar bounding stride that makes them look as though they are bouncing over the terrain like a giant rabbit. Some species of antelope can reach speeds of 60 miles per hour (100 kilometers per hour), making them among the fastest of land animals.IV. ElephantElephantidae (the elephants) is the only extant family in the order Proboscidea. Elephantidae has three living species: the Savannah Elephant and Forest Elephant (which were collectively known as the African Elephant) and the Asian Elephant (formerly known as the Indian Elephant). During the period of the ice age there were more species, which are now extinct.Elephants are the largest living land mammals. At birth it iscommon for an elephant calf to weigh 100 kg (225 pounds).It takes 20 to 22 months for a baby elephant to mature tobirth, the longest gestation period of any land animal. An elephant may live as long as 60 to 70 years. The largest elephant ever recorded was a male shot in Angola in 1974, weighing 12019 kilograms or 26400 pounds.Prehistoric human beings have been known to eat elephants, as recent findings of animal remains in central China show. The elephant is now a protected animal, and consumption is prohibited around the world.V. MonkeyA monkey is any member of two of the three groupings of simian primates. These two groupings are the New World and Old World monkeys. Because of their similarity to monkeys, apes such as chimpanzees and gibbons are sometimes incorrectly called monkeys. Also, a few monkey species have the word “ape.” in their common name. Because they are not a single coherent group, monkeys do not have any important characteristics that they all share and are not shared with the remaining group of simians, the apes.Monkeys range in size from the Pygmy Marmoset, at 10 cm (4 inch)long (plus tail) and 120 g (4 oz) in weight to the male Mandrill, almost1 metre (3 ft) long and weighing 35 kg (75 lb). Some are arboreal(living in trees), some live on the savanna; some eat fruit, some eatleaves, and some eat insects; although most have tails (sometimesprehensile), others do not; some have trichromatic colour vision likethat of humans, others are dichromats or monochromats.
