Module4 Great Scientists ReadingPart One Teaching DesignPeriod 1 Reading—The Student Who Asked Questions■Goals●To learn to read passages with the passive voice andby+-ing about great scientists●To learn to read with strategies■ProceduresStep 1: Warming up by defining sciencesBiochemistry: A branch of chemistry studying the chemical behavior in living beings. Biochemistry is not only interested in the individual chemical components but also their vital interplay.Biology: the science that deals with living things. It is broadly divided into zoology, the study of animal life, and botany, the study of plant life. Subdivisions of each of these sciences include cytology (the study of cells), histology (the study of tissues), anatomy or morphology, physiology, and embryology (the study of the embryonic development of an individual animal or plant). Also included in biological studies are the sciences of genetics, evolution, paleontology, and taxonomy or systematic, the study of classification.Botany: the scientific study of plant life. As a branch of biology, it is also sometimes referred to as plant science(s) or plant biology. Botany covers a wide range of scientific disciplines that study the growth, reproduction, metabolism, development, diseases, and evolution of plants.Genetics: scientific study of the mechanism of heredity. While Gregor Mendel first presented his findings on the statistical laws governing the transmission of certain traits from generation to generation in 1856, it was not until the discovery and detailed study of the chromosome and the gene in the 20th cent that scientists found the physical basis of hereditary characteristics.Zoology: The original branches of zoology established in the late 19th century such as zoo-physics, bionomics have largely been subsumed into more broad areas of biology which include studies of mechanisms common to both plants and animals.Chemistry: the science of matter and its interactions with energy and itself (see physics, biology). Because of the diversity of matter, which is mostly in the form of atoms, chemists often study how atoms interact to form molecules and how molecules(分子) interact with each other.Physics: the science of Nature in the broadest sense. Physicists study the behavior and properties of matter in a wide variety of contexts, ranging from the sub-nuclear particles from which all ordinary matter is made (particle physics) to the behaviorof the material Universe as a whole (cosmology宇宙论).Step 2: Before you readPlease go over the word list for this module, paying attention to the pronunciation of the word, the relationship between its pronunciation and its spelling.Step 3: While you read1.

Period3 Reading and SpeakingModule 1Life in the FutureBrief Statements Based on This ModuleThe Analysis of Teaching Contents in This ModuleIntroductionThe topic in this module is “Life in the Future”.Before the class,the teacher may encourage the students to find some pictures of some buildings and bring the pictures to the classroom for use.They may also surf the Internet to find some vocabulary used to describe environment and building materials.To begin this part the teacher may show the students the pictures in the book and carry out an activity of asking and answering questions using the questions the book provides.The teacher may also have a brainstorm in the class with the help of the questions given.In Activity 2 the teacher may show the students such words as “brick”“concrete”“mud” and so on.Explain some if necessary.After that the teacher may encourage the students to talk about the pictures they bring to the class in groups using the words they learned in this part.At the end of this lesson the representatives will be asked to act out their dialogue.Reading and VocabularyThe teacher may list the new words or ask the students to find the new words in the course of previewing the text.By guessing from the whole context they will have a good sense of enlarging their vocabulary and this is very important in learning a language.The main idea of this passage is about the City of the Future.While reading this passage,some reading strategies are necessary:skimming—fast reading to find out the general idea of the passage as well as the answers to one or two questions;scanning—careful reading to look for important facts;guessing—try to guess unknown words from the context,understand the author’s attitude and ideas from the context and understand the intention.In the teaching of the reading,the teacher can organize different reading activities according to the content of the text on purpose to train the above reading strategies and help them develop good reading habits from the very beginning.FunctionThe function of this module is “talking about the future”.Through the reading of the extracts from the City of the Future the students may have a better understanding of when to use with countable nouns and when to use with uncountable nouns.Some explanation from the teacher may be involved if necessary.And Activity 2 can act as a kind of consolidation.Listening and SpeakingIn this part the students’listening and speaking abilities are trained.First the students are encouraged to use their imagination to a full extent and draw a picture of their future home and then have a discussion.Thus speaking can serve as the warming up of listening.Through listening the students may have a better understanding of the future home.GrammarThe grammar in this module is the future continuous.The future continuous is formed with will be and the -ing form of the verb.Its function is to make predictions,i.e.it describe a situation which will be in progress at a given moment in the future.To make the students clear,the teacher had better give students some exercises for consolidation.PronunciationThe pronunciation in this module is stress.The teacher may choose a short paragraph from thepassage and then ask them to find the stressed words themselves.After that you may play the tape for the students to listen and check their answers.WritingActivity 1 is a preparation of writing.The students may be encouraged to read the passage to learn about how to make predictions.Through this activity the students can master some ways to tell about the future things and some words as well.In writing what they will be doing in ten years,the teacher may teach them the steps:first make an outline and write down some key words;the next step is to exchange their works with their deskmates for suggestions;the last step is correction.Everyday EnglishFirst encourage the students to do this activity individually and then check with a partner.To consolidate it,the teacher may ask the students to make up a dialogue using the phrases in this part.Cultural CornerThis part introduces to us people’s predictions about the future.These predictions has turned out to be absurd,so it is very interesting to read and thus attract the students.However,it can also make the students think about this question:How do we treat the development of the world?In dealing with this part the teacher may decide the Teaching Methods.If time permits,intensive reading is necessary;but if not,extensive reading,fast reading or skimming is also OK.TaskThe task of this module is to describe one’s ideal house for the future.You may first ask the students to draw a picture of the house and a plan of the rooms inside.And then the students are encouraged to say what each room in the house is and any interesting features it will have.The better ones may demonstrate their works to the whole class.Module FileThis part is a summary of this module.It may help the students to know whether they have mastered the main points or not.If time permits,the teacher may have a revision of this module by analyzing this part and consolidate it with some exercises.Five Periods for TeachingPeriod 1:Introduction;Reading and V ocabularyPeriod 2:Function;Listening and SpeakingPeriod 3:Grammar;PronunciationPeriod 4:Writing;Everyday

They 42 that cities will become more and more crowded. 43 the number of people increases, there will be less space for each person. This 44 will cause other problems – more crimes, dirtier streets, and worse problems with traffic 45 we have now. How will people find enough drinking water, energy (such as gas and electricity) and housing 46 life will be hard, people who live in cities will worry more, and they may become sick. 47 these reasons, some say that nobody will want to live in urban areas.How can we 48 such problems as overcrowding, crime, and traffic In some cities, thousands of people are already 49 in the streets because there is so little suitable housing – and because 50 are so high. The crime rate isn’t going down. 51 , it is 52 so fast that many people are afraid to go out at night. Traffic jams are so bad that cars don’t move at all for several blocks. These 53 problems have been getting worse, not better, so many people see no 54 for the future of the city.However, not all people believe in the horrible 55 for cities of the future. Instead, they feel that they can solve present urban problems and 56 future ones.The disadvantages of any modern city are not unique (独特的) to that city. 57 , all the cities in the world have to solve the problems of traffic jams, crime, housing, energy, drinking water, and overcrowding. Yet many cities have found answers to one or more of these difficulties. Some European cities, such as Stockholm, Sweden, or London, England, have planned communities that 58 people with apartments, jobs, shopping centers, green space, entertainment, and transportation.
