discovered that chimps hunt and eat meat,how chimps communicate with each other and worked out theirsocial system.(Not all the students can find the answer to the third question,or some of them can only find part of the answers.The teacher should instruct them the way of finding them accurately.First get them to find the possible sentences where the answer lies—“For example,one thing she discovered was that chimps hunt and eat meat...She also discovered how chimps communicate with each other and her study of their body language helped her work out their social system.” Remind them to pay attention to the transitional words like“one thing”,“also” and “and”.)Step 6 Competition (True or False consolidation exercises)Divide the students into four groups.Each student tries to tell whether the statements are true or false as soon as possible in order to gain points for their group.If he tells the right answer,he shall get one point.If the statement is wrong and he can tell the

the wild and not used for entertainment.4.True.5.True.6.False.Because she has set up special places where the chimps can live safely.T:Good job.So we can see you have a good understanding of Jane Goodall’s life.Do you th ink Jane Goodall wasbrave to go and live in the forest?Ss:Yes.T:Would you have done what she did if you had the chance?Ss share their views.T:What can we learn from Jane Goodall?S:We should show true love to others,as well as to animals.Everything is equal,no matter what they are.It isn’t because we a re human beings that we are superior to the animals.We don’t have the right to control the other living things on the earth.They are our friends and relatives.The only difference is that we have different appearances and different intelligence.Only if we show true love towards them can we make the world a better one.S:I admire her for her belief and personality.Step 7 Story retellingDivide the students into groups of four and get them to choose a slip of paper on which their characters are designed( for example,suppose you are Jane Goodall/ Jane Goodall’s colleague/ Jane Goodall’s mother etc.).Get them to discuss and retell the passage.Try to describe what she thinks.Among the four students,one should be chosen to make a record and give a report.Step 8 Language points focus1.The students raise questions about the passage and the others try to answer the

arguments as possible to defeat the other side.After their debate,get some students to give their report for their groups.Step 10 Summary and homeworkT:Time is running out.Today we learned about Jane Goodall’s story and we have learnt a lot from her.Our world will become a more beautiful one if we all treat the animals equally and show our love to them.We will succeed inovercoming any difficulties

dedicated her life to helping the poor,the sick and the dying around the world,particularly those in India.She founded the Kalighat Home for the Dying and a leper colony was established under her guidance.Her selfless work has brought her many awards,including the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979.2.Madame Curie (1867-1934 )Marie Curie,a great woman scientist,was born in Poland in 1867.From her early childhood Marie loved tostudy and hoped to become a scientist.Her interest in science was encouraged by her father,a teacher of physics.In 1891,she left Poland for France and entered the University of Paris.Four years later,she graduated with the highest grade in her class.After graduation she remained in the same university,doing scientific research work.In order to discover something that gave off a kind of radiation,she did experiments most carefully again and again.She failed many times,but she didn’ t lose heart.Finally in 1902,she,together with her husband,succeeded in finding the radioactive element—radium.Owing to their achievement,the Curies received the Nobel Prize inPhysics in 1903.In 1911,she won another Nobel Prize,this time all by herself in chemistry and thus she became the firstwoman scientist to win a Nobel awards.She died in 1934,obviously as a result of the effects of the radiations with which she worked for over 30 years.3.Elizabeth Fry ( May 21,1780-October 12,1845)Elizabeth Fry was a prison reformer,social reformer and philanthropist.She was born in a Quaker family on May 21,1780.She took an interest in her teenager years in the poor,the sick,and the prisoners.In 1812 she first visited Newgate Prison in London and was very shocked at the conditions she found there.From then on she began to work to improve prison conditions in Britain.She supplied the women of Newgate Prison with clothes and established a school and a chapel.In 1817 Elizabeth Fry and eleven others,formed the Association for the Improvement of the Female Prisoners in Newgate.The next year she was invited to give evidence to a House of Commons Committee on London Prisons.She described in detail the lives of the prisoners,and recommended that women prisoners should be looked after by women instead of men,and stressed her belief in the importance of useful employment.By the 1820s Elizabeth Fry and her work had become very well known in Britain.She faced criticism and problems at various times.Elizabeth Fry’s work was very important because it started the movement for prison improvement.Her idea was that people in prison could not change their ways and lead useful lives if you did not give them a legal way of earning money.She aimed at changing the prisoners by educating them and changing the way they were treated.Her work was mentioned as one of the reasons that the Quakers got the Nobel Peace Prize in 1947 and she was remembered in Britain by being put on the new five pound note in 2000.4.Soong Chingling (1893-1981)Soong Chingling was one of the Soong sisters,also known as Madame Sun Yet-sen.She was born into a rich Christian family which played an important role in Chinese politics in the first half of the 20th

up a clinic to help cure minor illnesses.Her life was spent following and recording the social life and relationships of the chimps.Her supplies and the care of her base camp were managed by her African helpers.Jane uncovered many aspects of chimpanzee behaviour during her first years in the Gombe National Park.Because of her research,we now know that chimpanzees hunt for meat,use tools,and

was given the Nobel Peace Prize and the work of Jody Williams was recognized and rewarded.She still works for ICBL today.7.Joan of Arc (1412-1431)Joan of Arc was born in the small village of Domremy in France.She lived at the time when there was a war between England and France called “The Hundred Years War”.Joan of Arc was important because she encouraged the old French king’s son,the Dauphin,to be crowned in Rheims as the only King of France.The French people accepted him as the true king of France.Joan also showed the French army how to win battles and inspired them with the confidence to win.So Joan of Arc began the process by which the English left France and it became acountry in its own right.At the time Joan lived it was considered wrong for women to fight in the army.But Joan argued that God had spoken to her and sent her to help the French army.She said God had spoken to her through two messengers and they had encouraged her in her mission.When she was captured by the English,they did not believe her stories of the messengers from God and criticized her for fighting and wearing men’s clothes.After a trial she was put to death.She was very patriotic and did inspire

adepartment.1941 War between Japan and the USA forced the hospital to close so she opened a private hospital in the hutongs for patients.After the war she returned to the hospital when it reopened.1949 After the Liberation she went to study diseases of women in the countryside and wrote a book to help them keep their babies healthy.She was very important in inspiring women to become doctors and was one of the founders of modern gynaecology in China.She did important research and used the methods she had learnedabroad to improve Chinese medicine.1983 She died leaving her body for
