湖南省蓝山二中高一英语必修四《unit3 Word Power》教案牛津版Word power deals with different expressions related to computers. By learning rules of word formations, such as adding suffixes to verbs, and adjectiv es to form abstract nouns, you’ll increase your vocabulary more easily.BrainstormingRevise the common suffixes that are used to form adjectives learnt in Unit 1. Compare the following two groups of words. You need to decide which part of speech each word is, and think about the similarities and differences between the two groups.Group1: house, milk, driver; gameGroup2: revision, preparation, decision, difference, information,All the words are nouns, but words in Group1 refer to physical things and those in Group2 refer to ideas, actions, and qualities. The nouns in Group2 are called abstract nouns, and we always use them to say something we cannot see or touch directly.For reference (/glossary/abstract-noun.html)A concrete noun refers to o bjects and substances, including people and animals that exist physically. They can be either an uncountable noun or a countable noun. eg: Clocks and watches exist physicall y and are Concrete Nouns. Time is a concept that has no physical existence; it is not a Conc rete Noun but an Abstract Noun. An abstract noun refers to states, events, concepts, feelings, qualities, etc. that have no physical existence.eg: Freedom; happiness; idea; music are all abstract nouns that have no physical existence.An abstract noun can be either a countable noun or uncountable noun. Abstract nouns that refer to events are almost usually countable: a noise; a meeting.For reference (http://www.arts.uottawa.ca/writcent/hypergrammar/nouns.html) Concrete NounsA concrete noun is a noun which names anything (or anyone) that you can perceive through your physical senses: touch, sight, taste, hearing, or smell. A concrete noun is the opposite of a abstract noun.Abstract NounsAn abstract noun is a nou n which names anything which you can not perceive through your five physical senses, and is the opposite of a concrete noun. The highlighted words in the following sentences are all abstract nouns:Vocabulary learningThink about more abstract nouns you know. You may use a dictionary if necessary.For reference Abstract Nounsfriendship peace civilizatio romance humornhate liberty love charity hopefaith bravery comfort talent memorychildhood impression success failure lawskill feelin gs humor happiness sadnessloyalty joy strictness belief pridehonesty truth calm sympathy sleepprinciple th rill wit sensitivity power2. Read the words on the blackboard carefully and try to find the rules of forming abstract nouns from verbs and adjectives. You may notice that a suffix is used at th e end of each word.Nouns Adjectives suffixactivity loyalty cruelty popularity activeloyalcruelpopular-tyillness carelessne ss darkness happiness tiredness illcarelessdarkhappytired-nessNouns Verbs Suffixconfusion impression invasion revision confuseimpressinvaderevise-sionassociation attention attraction civiliza ti on destination direction explanation imagination operation preparation production promotion suggestion associateattendattrac tcivilizedestinedirectexplainimagineoperateprepareproducepromotesuggest-tionargument advertiseme argueadvertise-ment3. Read the instructions on page 46. Compare the words on the blackboard with the words in the tables. Pay att ention to the usage of abstract nouns. Most abstract nouns are uncountable.

Aims and requirem ents♦ Read an article about advertisements and a handout about ad campaigns♦ Listen for statistics and descriptions♦ State your opinion on advertisements♦ Write an advertisement♦ Develop an ad campaignProcedures●We lcome to the UnitStep 1: Brainstorming1. Hi, everyone! I know all of you like to watch TV. But besides getting thelatest news, enjoying some TV plays, what is the most frequent thing appearing on TV every day? Ok. Let’s enjoy some videos and guess what it is about.It’s an advertisement about a kind of beer. The name of the beer is called Budweiser.Yes, ads appear on TV so frequently now. Some more videos or posters will be shown to you.Step 2: Discussing and practising1. I’d like you to enjoy some posters now.As we know advertising plays an important role in our daily life. Will those who have seen these advertisements talk about some of them? Let’s discuss the ads based on the following question: What image(s) can you read on each poster? What can you read on eac h poster? What does each advertisement try to tell us? Do they belong to the same type?You will be divided into six groups and each group talk about one of the ads. Then each group choose one student to present the ideas to all of us. Payattention to the instructions and focus on the six pictures and illustrations, please. (You can discuss them with your partner, when necessary)Sample questionsPoster of Project HopeHow do you feel when you see the child with the big eyes?What would you like to do for the child after seeing this advertisement?Why does the advertisement say ‘There is hope for us all!’ ?From this poster, what do you think of the purpose of Project Hope?(This poster is intended to make people aware of the importance of Project Hope. It makes people realize that there are still a lot of children dropping out school for economic reasons. It calls upon people to do something to help children in poor areas. The poster makes us aware of the needs of other people.)Poster of the software adWhat do you know from this advertisement?If you intended to buy some cheap lear ning software, would this advertisement help you?Would you buy this learning software? Why?Poster of Oxlin AirlinesWhat does the advertisement try to sell, a product or service?What impression do the words have on you?Would you like to fly with Oxlin Airlines? Why or why not?Poster of Earth DayWhat problem is the poster trying to highlight?Do you think this advertisement helps to make people aware of environmental problems?From this advertisement, what do you think Earth Day all about?Poster of the anti-drugs campaignFrom this poster, do you think drugs are harmful?If s omeone took drugs, what could happen to him or her?Does the ad vertisement teach you about the bad effect of taking drugs? What are they?Poster of the shampoo adWhat kind of people do you think this ad is targeting? Why? (Young people, especially girls, because they pay more attention to their appearance.) Do you think this advertisement will successfully persuade people to buy t shampoo? Why?For referenceWhat are advertisements?Advertisements are a good way to sell products or services. They are also a goodway to make people aware of the needs of others and dangers around them.Project HopeProject Ho pe aims to help young people who have dropped out of school return to school. It also aims to develop basic education in poor areas in China, especially in western China, with money collected from society. It has drawn great attention and gained genuine support from all walks of life since it was founded in the late twentieth century. Nowadays Project Hope pays special attention to children of laid-off workers in cities.Earth DayEarth Day aims to increase envir onmental awareness and encourage people to take care of the Earth and its people. The first Earth Day was celebrated on 21 March, 1970. The reason why it fell on that day is that night and day are equal throughout the Earth on that day. Today, Earth Day is celebrated annually by the world.常见广告的种类：classified advertisement 分类广告 commercial advertisement商业广告public service advertisement (PSA)公益广告 paragraph advertisement 写成新闻性的广告publishers' advertisement 出版商广告 television advertisement 电视广告tombstone advertisement 证券发行公告 advertisement of insurer 承保人广告2. Let’s talk about the three questions listed under the six pictures in groups for a couple of minutes. Please focus on the three questions individually and think of proper answers to the questions. Make the best of the chance to express your opinion and listen to your group members’ opinions. I’d like to invite some of you to report your opinions to the class.1.Which advertisements make you want to buy a product or service? Why?2.Which advertisements make you think about problems in society or about peoplewho need help? Why?Possible answers:1.We can see there are three ads that separately promote learning softwa re, an airline service and a shampoo here. They make me want to buy a product or service. In my opin ion, the advertisement for the shampoo is the most persuasive not only because of the image on the shampoo bottle, but also because it says that this shampoo will keep my hair shiny for days. Although I don’t believe that this ad tells the complete truth, I want to try it anyway.2. In my eye, the other three ads separately for Project Hope, Earth Day and an anti-drugs campaign make me think about problems in society or about people who need help. People’s health, the environment and poor children’s lives are common social concerns.Nobody can ignore the problems around us. In addition, the persuasive wo rdsand the impressive images used in these ads strike me a lot. Of the three ads, the ad about Earth Day strikes me the most. The ad shows us a bird’s nest built in the sky. The poster is trying to show that there is nowhere else to put the bird’s nest because all the trees have been cut down. It sends us a serious warning and tell us that we should protect the environment from now on.No. As we all know, commercial advertisements, generally speaking, are intended to encourage people to buy a product or service so that companies can make more money. Thus they try their best to make people believe they are telling the truth, sometimes by tricking us. For example, ads which sell cosmetics often use famous pop stars who tell us how effective the product is and how it keeps him or her young and good-looking. It is up to us, the consumers, to decide whether to believe commercial advertisements or not. However, public service advertisements are intended to educate people about health, problems in society and public welfare. Public service advertisements are usually free and they are usually true.。
