Opinions are divided on the question.Most of us are for the idea that there will be many positive effects of having household robots. People will be relieved from doing household cleaning, cooking and so on. People will be free to work or enjoy their leisure time. Life will become an endless paradise.On the other hand, some are against the idea. They believe household robots will negative effects on their life. People will be fat and lazy and people will no longer have the useful skills of life if they no longer do housework. What’s worse, if a robot breaks down, they will find it very difficult to manage their life. Life will become a nightmare without robots.In my opinion, we make it necessary to use household robots in the future but we should use them reasonably.。
设计方案(二)Teaching goals教学目标1.Target language目标语言a.重点词汇和短语explanation,junior,navy,talent,chapter,divorceb.重点句型It was when Asimov was eleven years old that his talent for writing became obvious.A robot must not injure human beings or allow them to be injured.2.Ability goals 能力目标Enable students to get some knowledge about Isaac Asimov.Learn to write a paragraph describing a new type of robot.3.Learning ability goals学能目标Use their imagination and write a paragraph describing a new type of robot.Teaching important and difficult points教学重、难点Write a paragraph describing a new type of robot.Teaching methods教学方法Listening,discussing,reading and writing.Teaching aids教具准备Multi-media computer.Teaching procedures & ways教学过程与方式Step 1Lead-in:revisionT:What is the short story about that we learned in the previous lessons?S1:It is a love story between Claire and Tony,a robot.It seems that the robot has emotions and affections,which makes Claire fall in love with it.In this sense,there is a long way to go to improve the robot.T:Well done!Then do you know who the writer is?S2:Isaac Asimov.T:Thank you.Do you know anything about him?Students' answers may vary.Step 2First readingT:Now let's read Asimov's biography and learn more about him.Ask the students to glance through the text and find the answers to such questions as:1.Which paragraph tells you when and where Asimov was born and died?2.Which paragraph tells you about his education?3.Which paragraph tells you about the awards he received?Then get them to scan the text for specific information by asking the following questions:1.What subject did Asimov teach?2.When did he start having stories published?3.How many children did he have?Step 3Second readingT:Now,please read the text in pairs,helping each other with anything that you don't understand.Then try to complete the following timeline:Read about Isaac Asimov and complete the timeline of the events in his life.Date Event1920 Born in Russia.1922 ________________.1923 ________________.Parents bought a candy store.1929 ________________.Mother had her third child.______ Started to take himself seriously as a writer.1939 ________________________________.______ Gained master's degree in chemistry.1942 Finished working in the candy store.________________.1942-1945 ________________.______ Got his PhD in chemistry.______Became a biochemistry teacher,BostonUniversity School of Medicine.1950 Published his first novel.________________.Developed three laws for robots. 1951-1953 Published the Foundation trilogy and won an award for it. ______ Published his first science book______ Became a full-time writer.1973 Divorced his first wife.________________.______ Had a blood transfusion.Became infected with HIV. 1992 ________________.Mother had heStep 4Group discussionT:By now I'm sure you have a better understanding about Isaac Asimov.In one of his short stories,I,Robot,he developed three laws for robots.The first law was:“A robot must not injure human beings or allow them to be injured.”In groups of four,discuss what the other two laws might be.Write them down on a piece of paper.Then exchange your opinions with other groups.Suggested answers:1.A robot must help human beings do what they wish to do.2.A robot must protect its owner but cannot have him/her fall in love with it.After that,get the students to refer to Asimov's laws for robots on Page 18.St ep 5ListeningT:OK,so much for Isaac's biography and his three laws for robots.Let's come back to his short story Satisfaction Guaranteed.How do you like this story?S1:I like the story very much.I wish to have a robot like Tony at my house.T:You are not alone.Someone else wants to have such a Tony too.Now please listen to the tape carefully.Ask students to look through the questions in Exercise 1 before playing the tape.Play the tape again when necessary and then tick the co rrect boxes.Step 6WritingT:So it seems that Molly likes the idea of a handsome robot such as Tony to stay at her house and make her happy all the time.And we have every reason to believe that in the future,household robots will be more and more popular.They can help us with our housework or homework,and they can even play with us.Suppose you are an engineer in a company that makes household robots and you have been asked to design a new type of robot.Describe it in a short passage and draw a picture of it if necessary.The following tips may help you:◆Your robot should follow Asimov's three laws.◆You should state the purpose of your robot and the abilities you want your robot to have.◆You'd better make a list of the kinds of body part your robot would need to carry out your instructions.◆Name the different parts if necessary and explain what each part does.While the students are preparing their assignment,encourage them to make full use of their imag ination.Step 7Report/PresentationAfter the students have finished their work,ask three or four of them to report or present their short passages or pictures.Sample writing:The rubbish collectorThe rubbish collector is a robot about half the size of a small car.Its body is square and contains a large rubbish bin inside it.It has a camera attached to the top front of its body.Also atthe front is a pair of arms.Underneath it has four wheels and six legs.With the camera it can “see”rubbish such as paper,glass,and plastic.If the surface of the ground is smooth,it runs on its wheels,and if the ground is rough,it unfolds its legs and walks.When it sees a piece of rubbish,it stops and uses its arms to pick it up and put it in its rubbish bin.However,when it sees a person,an animal or a plant,it goes around it as it is able to recognize when something is not a piece of rubbish.The company should make this robot as it would be very popular with schools.It would clean the outside ground of the school and so give the students more time to spend on their studies.It would also be a gre at advantage to have at sports grounds or any other area where rubbish is dropped by the public.Step 8Homework1.Try to improve the short passage after class.2.Go over the text,and learn all the new words and expressions in the reading passage.。

Unit 2 RobotsPart 1 Teaching Design第一部分教学设计Period 2 A sample lesson plan for Learning about Language (Revise the passive voice including the infinitive)IntroductionIn this period students will be first helped by the teacher to discover and learn to use some useful words and collocations, and then to discover and revise the passive voice including the infinitive. The following steps of teaching may be taken: warming up by having a dictation, discovering useful words and collocations, reading more about the 22nd century, learning about the passive voice, discovering useful structures and closing down by putting on stage a text play of Satisfaction Guaranteed.ObjectivesTo help students revise the passive voiceTo help students discover and learn to use some useful words and collocationsTo help students discover and learn to use some useful structuresProcedures1. Warming up by having a dictationTo begin with, let’s take a dictation to strengthen our memory of the text.2. Discovering useful words and collocationsA collocation is two or more words that often go together. These combinations just sound "right" to native English speakers, who use them all the time.While going over the text, try to recognize the collocations, treat them as single blocks of language and copy them out into your Collocation Book.Now go to page 13. Work in pairs to finish the three exercises in 10 minutes.3. Learning about the passive voiceACTIVE AND PASSIVE TENSES CHART4. 被动语态小结●被动语态的特殊结构形式1)带情态动词的被动结构。
Unit 2Robots设计者宋师国指导思想与理论依据1.指导思想本课题努力结合新课程的理念,将课堂教学放在具体的语言情景之中;努力培养学生的综合语言运用能力,并且把听、说、读、写语言技能的训练综合运用于课堂教学之中。
通过探究法、观察法和发现法,让学生发挥主观能动性,利用两两合作、小组活动的方式,激发学生参与教学的热情,让学生整堂课都处于新鲜感不断的亢奋状态中。
根据学生的认知能力和接受程度,设计了写作等任务,使语言得到输出,可以使学生产生继续学习的动力。
总之,本次设计的宗旨是努力提高课堂教学的实效性,使学生能够提高语言的实际运用能力,达到最终教学的目的。
2.理论依据《普通高中英语课程标准》明确提出:“要通过设计丰富多彩的课内外学习活动,使学生在参与交际活动的过程中形成交际策略。
”教材内容分析本单元以机器人和科幻小说为话题,介绍了20世纪世界知名的科幻小说家Isaac Asimov发表于1951年的Satisfaction Guaranteed 和他的生平。
通过本单元的教学,旨在让学生了解科幻小说最大的特征在于:它赋予了“幻想”依靠科技在未来得以实现的极大可能,甚至有些“科学幻想”在多年以后,的确在科学上成了现实。
如Isaac Asimov 1951年描述的机器人的部分功能已经被应用于现实生活和工作中。
在教学中,要鼓励学生敢于幻想,大胆创新,发挥自己丰富的想象力和创作力,写出独具特色的科幻文章。
教学内容如下:Warming Up介绍了机器人的制造、种类、功能等等,再让学生分组列表,把自己熟悉的科幻文艺形式(科幻故事、电影、电脑游戏、电视剧、卡通等等)写出来,并进行简单地交流。
Pre-reading 通过讨论机器人是否像人类一样有自己的思维、是否有感情引出Isaac Asimov的科幻小说Satisfaction Guaranteed,为本单元的Reading做好了铺垫。
Reading的课文是Isaac Asimov发表于1951年的科幻小说Satisfaction Guaranteed。
文中描述的机器人Tony是一个除去面无表情外,身材高大、相貌英俊、聪明机智的完美男人,仅三周的时间就使女主人坠入爱河。
Comprehending共有3个练习,练习1是关于克莱尔的情感变化,练习2是关于课文内容的5个问答题,旨在考查学生对课文的理解;练习3要求学生比较机器人Tony在physical,mental两方面与人的异同,与Pre-reading 部分的问题相呼应。
Learning about Language分为两部分,Discovering useful words and expressions是本单元词汇练习题;Revising useful structures是本单元语法练习题,通过本单元的学习,要求学生熟练掌握不定式的被动语态。
Using Language分为两部分,Listening and spe aking是Molly 和Kate 讨论Satisfaction Guaranteed的对话录音,要求学生根据对话内容学会运用表达自己观点的常用句型。
这部分教学内容还要求学生以机器人为话题,充分发挥自己的想象力,谈论机器人做家务的利与弊。
并且要求自己动手设计机器人,附上文字说明。
Reading,discussing and writing部分的内容是科幻小说家Isaac Asimov的生平介绍。
文章后附有练习题。
练习1要求学生根据时间线索了解在作者生命中发生的重要事件;练习2、3要求学生讨论Isaac Asimov的“机器人三定律”;练习4要求学生借助文章信息和练习1的表格笔头简述阿西莫夫的生平事迹。
教材重组Period 1 Warming Up,Pre-reading,Reading and ComprehendingPeriod 2 Language StudyPeriod 3 GrammarPeriod 4 Listening,Speaking and WritingPeriod 5 Using LanguagePeriod 6 Listening and Reading TaskPeriod 7 Speaking,Listening and Writing Task三维目标知识目标1.掌握本单元教学目的和要求中的单词和词汇。
如:fiction,desire,satisfaction,alarm,ala rmed,sympathy,elegant,pile,scan,fingernail,absurd,haircut,accompany,counter,cushion,awful,affair,declare,envy,test out,ring up,turn around,leave...alone etc。
