Unit 10 Frightening nature I. 单元教学目标Ⅱ.目标语言II. 教材分析与教材重组1. 教材分析本单元以frightening nature为话题，旨在通过单元教学，使学生了解各种自然灾害：地震、台风、火山喷发等,能用所学的有关自然灾害的词汇描述各种自然灾害，并学会使用表达忧虑、恐惧的词句表达自己的感受。

1.1 WARMING UP 提供了四幅有关natural history的图片：Geology（地质学），Meteorology（气象学），Astronomy（天文学），Biology（生物学），让学生根据自己的理解讨论这四个学科通常涉及的内容，并分别举例说明每个学科的重要性。

1.2 LISTENING是收音机播放的美国各州天气预报。

其中有各种天气情况的表达方式和各州的名称。

要求学生们听后与同伴合作播报一个中国各省的天气预报。

1.3 SPEAKING 根据材料，两个人合作，参照Example谈论Typhoon，之后尝试谈论75页六幅图片中的情景如何让你感到恐惧，并说明理由；同时谈论你所认识的人当中谁害怕这些以及他们对这些情景的行为反应。

1.4 PRE-READING是READING的热身活动。

它要求采用与同学讨论交流的方式谈论火山等自然灾害对人类和周围环境造成的毁坏。

1.5 READING是一封书信。

信中介绍了Pliny在火山喷发中的经历。
