Step I Greetings and Lead-in
T: Good morning/afternoon, class.
Ss: Good morning/afternoon, Miss/ Mr. X.
T: Sit down, please. Being the members of the society, we all cares for/about what happens around us or even what happens at home and abroad. How can you do so?
Ss: By reading newspapers and magazines, watching TV programmes,
listening to the radio.
T: Are there any other ways? Think it over.
Ss: By a website.
T: Yes. It’s also a way to learn about the world. What do you call these things which help us know about to the world?
Ss:新闻媒体
T: In English, we call it news media. First, let's learn the new words in this period. Look at the screen.
(Teacher first asks some students to read the words on the screen. Correct the Ss' mistakes in pronunciation. Then teacher gives brief explanations. At last, let the Ss read and remember them for a while.)
Step Ⅱ Warming up
T: Well, now please open your books at Page 9. Warming up first. Look at each of the pictures and tell me which kind of news media it shows?
Ss: The first picture shows a website; the second one shows radio; the third one shows TV programmes; the fourth one shows magazines; the fifth one shows newspapers.
T: Quite right! Now, please work in groups of four and discuss the five questions below the pictures. A few minutes later, I’ll check your answers. OK?
Ss: OK.
T: You can begin now.
(A few minutes later. )
T: Are you ready now?
Ss: Yes.
T: Which group would like to talk about the first question? Choose one member of your group to answer the question.
S1: I think TV is the most reliable among the news media. TV consists of a series of lively consecutive pictures. For the people
who want to know what is exactly happening, a picture responds better to offer the truth of a fact than the mere words upon a page. It can offer an unique function of seemingly on-the-spot feeling, which is not available to the other media.
T: The second question?
S2. I think TV programmes are easy for most people to understand. Radio, can only be heard and sometimes can’t be picked up clearly. Newspapers and magazines are only useful for people who can read. Websites have many different pages, but you should be careful
to read some of the pages. who can read. Website have many different pages, but you should be careful to read some of the pages.
T: The third question?
S3 : I will check other sources.
T: The fourth question?
S4: Every morning, the newspaper chief editor and the journalists discuss the main events of the day. Reporters are then sent to cover the events. They usually do some interviews and then check the information. They must work very fast. Later in the day, everything is put together at the news desk. Then the editors read the stories and make any necessary changes and choose a good title for eachstory. At last, they print them quickly and deliver them. Making a magazine is more or less the same as making a newspaper. But the articles in a magazine are more like stories, which are writtenby all kinds of writers. Magazines are not published as quickly as newspapers.
T: The last question?
Ss: News broadcast, newspaper, magazine, radio programme, website,
report, reporter, editor, interview, write articles…
Step Ⅲ Listening
T: Next, let's come to the Listening. We are going to listen to two parts of conversations. The first part is an interview; the second part is a dialogue. Now, look at Exercise 1:
Listen carefully towhat is said and tick the information you hear in each part. If necessary, I'll play it twice. (Teacher begins to play the tape, and checks the answers after listening. Then ask the students to finish the rest of the tasks. )
T: OK. Now, please listen to each part once again and then work inpairs to talk about the questions in Exercises 2,3,4 and 5. Are youclear?
Ss: Yes.
(Teacher allows them enough time to talk about the questions. Thenask some students to say their answers.)
Step IV Speaking
T: Well, now it's time for us to be the editors of a newspaper. Here is a list of ten things that happened today. Look at the screen. (Teacher shows the screen and read through the list to the whole class.)
200 people died in an earthquake in Turkey.
China beat Brazil 5-1 in football.
France elected a new President.
Three children from your city were killed.
Someone robbed a bank in Shanghai.
Food prices are going up.
A house in your town burned down. Nobody was injured. 2 000 people in your city were happy today and moved into new buildings. A Chinese scientist has invented a new car engine that does not pollute the air. There is a rumor that a large company wants to build a factory in your town:
(Bb :go up, burn down)
T: Now, you've known the ten things, but you only need to report
five of them. So, first decide which events you are going to put in your newspaper. Then give reasons for your choices and compare with your classmates. Work in groups of four or five. And the following expressions on the screen can help you with your dialogue. After a while, I'll ask some of you to act out your dialogue.
(Teacher shows the screen. )
What do you think of'…?
I would rather choose.…
What's your opinion?
I don't think we should choose…
Why do you choose…
Maybe it would be better to choose…
Perhaps… is more important.
Our readers want to know about….

Step 5 Sentence focus
1. This gift was the Amber Room,which was given this name because several tons of amber were used to make it.
这件礼物就是唬拍屋,它之所以有这个名字;是因为造这间房子用了好几吨珑拍.
这是一个复合句,句中which was given this name because several tons of amber were used to make it为非限制性定语从句,从句中又含有原因状语从句because several tons of amber were used to make it。
非限制性定语从句,修饰物时用which, whose;修饰人时用who, whom, whose。非限制性定语从句和它的先行词之间只是松散的关系,往往是对先行词作补充说明,这种从句在朗读时有停顿,在文字中通常有逗号与主句隔开。例如:
The chairman,who spoke first,sat on my right.
主席坐在我的右边,他最先发言。
The speech,which bored everyone,went on and on.
那演讲一直在进行,大家都觉得厌烦。
关系副词where和when也能引导非限制性定语从句。例如:
On April 1 they flew to Beijing,where they stayed several days.
4月1日他们飞到北京,在那里待了几天。
I'm seeing the manager tomorrow,when he will be back from New York.
我明天要去见经理,他明天从纽约回来。
另外,由which引导的非限制性定语从句,有时候修饰整个句子或句子中的某个部分。例如:
They have invited us to visit their country,which is very kind of them.
他们非常友好地邀请我们去访问他们的国家。
They usually take a walk after supper,which does them a lot of good.
他们通常晚饭后去散步,这么做对他们很有好处。
2. The design of the room was in the fancy style popular in those days.
屋子的设计是当时流行的极富艺术表现力的建筑式样。
这是一个“主系表”结构的句子,in the fancy style...在句子中用作表语,注意介词in的用法,此处表示“以……方式,以……式样,以……风格”。类似用法有in a different way等。
popular in those days是形容词短语修饰the fancy style,形容词词组作定语时,通常都作后置定语。例如:
They have a house larger than yours. 他们的房子比你的大.
The boys easiest to teach are in my class. 我班上的男生最好教了。
嵌这类后置的定语在意义上相当于定语从句。例如:
a house larger than yours= a house which is larger than yours
the boys easiest to teach=the boys who are easiest to teach
3. In 1770 the room was completed the way she wanted.
1770年,这间唬拍屋按照她的要求完成了。
句子中的the way she wanted作状语,表示方式。此句实际为the room was
completed the way she wanted it to be completed, the way表示“方式;方法”,在定语从句中作状语时,后面的从句的引导词常常用that或in which或省略。例如:
I was never allowed to do things the way I wanted.
我从来就不被允许按照自己的想法去做事情。
We have to make it work in the way(that/in which) they want it to.
我们必须按照他们的想法把事情办好。(此句中way在从句中作状语)
He was looking at her in the way that surprised her.
他看着她的样子让她很惊讶。(注意此句中that可用which替换way在定语从句中作主语)
4. There is no doubt that the boxes were then put on a train for Konigsberg,which was at that time a German city on the Baltic Sea.
毫无疑间,这些箱子后来被装上火车运往哥尼斯堡,当时它是波罗的海边的一个德国城市。
这是一个复合句,that the boxes were then put on a train for Konigsberg是同位语从句,表示与之同位的doubt的实际内容。which was at that time a German city on the Baltic Sea是Konigsberg的非限制性定语从句,先行词为Konigsbergo

Step 3 Learning about grammar
1. Let students pick out the sentences that use the attributive clauses from Warming up,Pre-reading and Reading,read them aloud and then translate them into English.

3. Sum up:Restrictive & non-restrictive clauses.
Do the following pair of sentences mean the same thing?
My uncle,who lives in London,is very rich.
My uncle who lives in London is very rich.
The first sentence has a non-restrictive clause within two commas,and the second has a restrictive clause. A non-restrictive clause simply adds more information into the sentence and does not affect the meaning of the main clause;it is therefore bracketed off with commas. Conversely,a restrictive clause defines its referent in the main clause more specifically and contributes significantly to the meaning of the sentence.

Reference for Teaching
Ⅰ.异域风情
Cars and the United States
Cars are an important part of life in the United States.Without a car most people feel that they are poor.And even if a person is poor,he doesn’t feel really poor when he has a car.
Henry Ford was the man who first started making cars in large numbers.He probably didn’t know how much the car was going to affect American culture.The car made the United States a nation on wheels.And it helped make the United States what it is today.
There are three main reasons that the car became so popular in the United States.First of all,the country is a huge one and Americans like to move around in it.The car provides the most comfortable and cheapest form of transportation.With a car people can go anyplace without spending a lot of money.
The second reason that cars are popular is the fact that the United States never really developed an efficient and inexpensive form of public transportation.Long-distance trains have never been as common in the United States as they are in other parts of the world.Nowadays there is a good system of air-service provided by planes.But it is too expensive to be used frequently.
The third reason is the most important one.The American spirit of independence is what really made cars popular.Americans don’t like to wait for a bus,or a train or even a plane.They don’t like to have to follow an exact schedule.A car gives them the freedom to schedule their own time.And this is the freedom that Americans want most to have.
The gas shortage has caused a big problem for Americans.But the answer will not be a bigger system of public transportation.The real solution will have to be a new kind of car,one that does not use so much gas.

Ⅲ.词语辨析
1.possible,probable,likely adj. 可能的
(1)possible强调客观上潜在的可能性,但也常常暗示“实际上希望很小”。
e.g.He is a possible choice.
他是一个可以考虑的人选。(根据客观情况,而非说话者臆断)
possible (反义词 impossible)作表语时,前面通常不能用表示人的名词或代词作主语,常用句式为:
It is possible for sb. to do sth.
It is possible that-clause.
e.g.He is possible to finish the work.(×)
It is possible for him to finish the work.(√)
(2)probable主要用来指有根据、合情理、值得相信的事物,带有“大概,很可能……”的意味,语气较possible强。
e.g.It was probable that Tom told his father all about the matter.
汤姆可能把这事的全部经过告诉了他父亲。(有几分根据的推测)
probable(反义词improbable)作表语时,通常也不能用表示人的名词或代词作主语,常用句式为:
It is probable that-clause.
sth. be probable.
不能用It is probable for sb. to do sth.的结构。
e.g.It is probable that the winner will get a prize.(√)
It is probable for the winner to get a prize.(×)
Colder weather is probable.
(3)likely表示有充分根据的推测,侧重从表面看,某事很可能发生,与probable意思较近。有时两者可以通用,含义区别不大。如:
It is likely/probable that we shall meet with some opposition.
我们多半会遇到一些阻力的。
但likely暗示从表面迹象判断,某事可能发生或可能是真的,而probable则意味着经过权衡正反两方面的理由后,相信某事是真实的,或大概会发生。
e.g.This looks a likely field for mushrooms.
这里看起来适合长蘑菇。
The probable winner is Tom,not Jack.
有希望取胜的是汤姆,而不是杰克。(意即一方实力显然优于另一方)
当likely表示“有可能成功”的意思时,不能用probable代替。
e.g.What is the most likely time to find him at home?
什么时候最有可能在家找到他?
likely(反义词为unlikely)前面可以用表示人的名词或代词作主语,也可以用表示物的名词或代词作主语。但非人称代词it作形式主语时,不能用于“it is likely for sb. to do sth.”句式,此时它与probable一样,后面接that从句。
It be likely that-clause.
e.g.不能说It is likely for him to come.
应说He is likely to come.
or:It is likely that he will come.
2.luggage,baggage
两词都可表示“行李”,都是不可数名词。
luggage是英国英语,baggage是美国英语,表示随身携带的各种行李的总称。询问有多少行李时用how much。
e.g.How much baggage/luggage do you have?
指多少件行李用a piece of 或an article of。
e.g.He had three pieces/articles of luggage(baggage).
他带了三件行李。
3.catch,grasp,seize,snatch
(1)catch的普通用法有“设法抓住、捉住”的意思。
e.g.I caught him by the ear.
我揪住了他的耳朵。
The police caught the thief as he ran.
小偷逃跑时被警察抓住了。
(2)grasp表示“牢牢地抓住”。
e.g.Tom grasped his gun and rushed out.
汤姆抓起枪就冲了出去。
She grasped the rope tightly with her hands.
她双手紧紧地抓住绳子。
(3)seize指“突然用力抓住使之不便逃脱”。
e.g.The policeman seized the thief by the sleeve.
警察抓住了小偷的袖子。
He seized the gun from the enemy soldier.
他从敌兵手中夺过了枪。
(4)snatch表示迅速的拉扯动作,出其不意地“抓取”。
e.g.The thief snatched her handbag and ran off.
小偷抢走了她的小提包就跑了。
He snatched the letter from me.
他从我手中抢走了信。
Ⅳ.能力训练
1.单句改错
(1)He’s in the wool businesses.
答案:将businesses改为business。business表示“生意,商业,行业”等时,为不可数名词。
(2)She’s treated now;she should be back to normal health in a few weeks.
答案:将treated改为cured。cure和treat都含“医治”之意,但cure有“治疗,痊愈”之意,侧重于结果,而treat含“治疗,处理”之意,侧重于动作。
(3)Their whole life was a constant battle for poverty.
答案:把for改为against。for后面所接宾语应该是斗争的目的,against后所接宾语应该是斗争的对象。
(4)Do you think that impossible for us to go there by water?
答案:把that改为it。代替不定式或从句在句中作形式宾语时,应该用it而不能用that。
(5)Half us are on the night shift.
答案:在Half后加of。在人称代词前,要用half of这个结构。
2.翻译填空
(1)老师的言行对学生有很大的影响。
Teachers’ words and deeds ______ ______ ______ ______ ______ their students.
答案:have a great effect on
(2)我的朋友并不个个都吸烟。
______ ______ my friends smoke.
答案:Not all
(3)这个印刷错误造成很大的混淆。
This misprint ______ ______ great confusion.

Listening and speaking
GOALS:
To enable students to know how to protect the patent rights and what an invention should be like..
Improve the speaking ability.
Practise supporting an opinion.
Have a better understanding of intellectual property rights.
Teaching Procedures:
I. Listening (SB)
1. Pre-listening: Go through the questions in Part1 and ask Ss what we should do to protect our patent rights
2. While-listening: Listen to the tape and finish exercises in Part1&2.
Check the answers at last.
3. Post-listening: Discussion:
What should a new thing be like in order to be given a patent?
2.Speaking
Step 1 Warming-up
1.With the development of the technology, our society has greatly changed. Have a discussion:
1). What advantages have cars brought us?
(convenient, travel fast, supply more posts, …)
2). What benefits have we got from computers?
(get more information, make communication easier, develop economy …)
2. What do you think of the inventor?
(Make the Ss aware of the importance of knowledge and try to learn harder.
3. Suppose you have invented an inflatable bike, what should you do?
State Intellectual Property Office (SIPO) (国家知识产权保护局)
apply for a patent
pay attention to the time limit of a patent
Step 2 Speaking
1. The patent officer will ask you some questions. Think over what questions will be asked?
1) How does you invention work?
2) Why are they useful?
3) What does it look like?
4) How much does it cost?
5) How do people use it?
… …
2. Now you are in the patent office and want to apply for a patent. Look at P38. Suppose you are one of the inventors, make a dialogue with a partner. One is the inventor and the other is the patent officer.
Model:
( I-inventor; P --- Patent officer)
P: Now, please explain how your inventions work and why they are useful. Your invention is a car that uses water instead of petrol, isn’t it?
A: Yes, that’s right.
P: What does it look like?
A: It looks like an ordinary car. Here’s the picture. Please have a look.
P: Oh, it looks beautiful. What’s it made of?
A: It’s made of a new kind of alloy, which is much lighter.
P: Does it cost more?
A:A little bit. But it can save much more energy, so lots of money is saved. Besides, there is something even more important. It is good for our environment. It doesn’t pollute the air.
P: Sounds great. Thank you.

Step 1 Revision
Say : What are the Four Great Inventions of ancient
China?
As modern men, we are so used to so many inventions that we do not realize how much they have changed our lives. Eyeglasses and sewing machine are two examples. Another, and perhaps more obvious, example is television, which has so altered our way of life that we just cannot imagine what our life would be like without it.
What kind of modern invention do you know?
Step 2 Fast-reading
Group project
Reading the passage in your WB, Then discuss with your group members to complete the chart below with the information from the text
inventions Possible uses
Invisible paint 1,interesting clothes
2,Help doctors see through the skin/hide things
Tiny robot help doctors operate on people in a safer and less painful way
Step3
Say: In our reading text, it describes new inventions and ideas. Some already exist and others may be come reality within 20 years.Today,I will show you more inventions
Conclusion:
Every invention can be of great value .But it is an easy thing to make an invention.Everybody, I think have the answer. Before an invention, inventor must have an idea, then make experiments again and again .perhaps making many errors and at last gain success. Remember success comes from failure. Any invention also experiences many hardships.
Discuss: What qualities should one have to be an inventor?

Grammar: The attributive clause
Teaching Aim:
1. Revise the Attributive Clause, including the Restrictive Clause and the Non-restrictive Clause.
2. Revise the use of relative pronouns and relative adverbs.
3. Tell the differences between the restrictive and non-restrictive attributive clauses, the attributive clause & the emphasis structure, and the attributive clause & the appositive clause
Teaching Important Point:
The usage of relative pronouns and adverbs
Teaching Difficult Point:
Help the students to master the way of choosing a relative pronoun or a elative adverb correctly, telling the differences between the restrictive and non-restrictive attributive clauses, the attributive clause & the emphasis structure, and the attributive clause & the appositive clause
Teaching Procedures:
Step 1: Greetings.
Step 2: Revision and lead-in
1) He is a famous scientist.
2) Who’s that girl in red?
3) I’ve read all the books that you lent me.
4) I have lost my pen, which I like very much.
T: Now look at the sentences on the screen. Pay special attention to the underlined parts. Is there anything in common between them?
S: Yes. They all identify the nouns, which are used with them. Each part tells us which thing or person the speaker is talking about.
T: That is to say, the function of each underlined part is the same. Each of them is used as an attributive to describe each noun. Well, are there any differences between them?
S: Yes. In he 1st sentence, the attribute is an adjective and put before the noun; the 2nd is a prepositional phrase put after the noun; the 3rd and 4th sentences are full sentences put after them.
T: You are right, what do we call the sentences put after them?
S: The Attributive Clause.
T: Quite right. In a complex sentence, the clause modifying a noun or a pronoun in the main clause is called an Attributive Clause. The noun or pronoun is called Antecedent. The word that/which introduces the clause (between the noun/pronoun and the clause) is called Relative Pronoun or Relative Adverb. The relative pronouns or adverbs do 2 jobs at once. They can be used as subjects, objects, attributes or adverbials in the clause; at the same time, they join clauses together. About the use of them, we’ll have particular revision after a while. The attributive clause the restrictive attributive clause
the non-restrictive attributive clause
The adjective clause noun/pronoun + the attributive clause
the antecedent (person/thing) the relative pronouns/adverbs + clause
Now look at the sentences on the screen. Do complete the sentences with suitable relatives.
1) I know the reason why he came late.
2) Do you know the woman, whose son went to college last year?
3) The house whose color is red is John’s.
4) This is the best film that I’ve ever seen.
5) That’s the town where he worked in 1987.
6) I have 2 brothers, who are both soldiers.
7) Next week, which you’ll spend in your hometown, is coming.
8) I’ve tried 2 pairs of shoes, neither of which fits me well.
Step 3: Summarize the Use of the relative pronouns and relative adverbs.
The use of the relative pronouns
Form 1:
The relative pronouns Referring to Function in the clause
Who Person(s) Subject/object
Whom Person(s) Object
That Person(s)/thing(s) Subject/object
Which Thing(s) Subject/object
Whose Person(s)/thing(s) (of whom/which) attributive
The use of the relative adverbs
The relative adverbs Referring to Function in the clause
When (=at/in/on which) Time Adverbial of time
Where (=in/at which) Place Adverbial of place
Why (=for which) Reason Adverbial of reason
Notice:
1) Pay more attention to the agreement between the verb and the antecedent in person and number in the attributive clause, and then complete the sentences:
⑴ Those who want to go to the cinema must be at the school gate by 3:30 p.m. (want)
⑵ Te who doesn’t reach the great wall is not a true man. (not reach)
⑶ The is the only one of the girls who has been to Beijing. (have)
⑷ He is one of the boys who have seen the film. (have)
Conclusion 1:
1) When a relative pronoun is used as a subject in the clause, the verb must agree with the antecedent in person and number.
2) When the antecedent is the structure “one of +n. (pl.)”, the verb in the clause must be plural, agrees with the plural form. However, if there is “the” or “the only very” before “one”, the verb in the clause must be singular, agrees with the word “one”.
2) Practice: complete the following sentences with suitable relatives:
(1) The time when/that I went to Tokyo is in 1982.
(2) I’ll never forget the time which/that I spent at college.
(3) The shop which/that I bought the book in is big.
(4) The shop where/in which I bought the book is big.
Conclusion 2: when the antecedent is a noun for time or place “when “or “where” is not always used to introduce the clause. It depends on the function of the relative word in the clause.
3) The difference between “that” and “which”.
Complete the following sentences with “that” or “which”.
(1) This is the 2nd article that I have written in English.
(2) It is the best film that he has ever seen.
(3) This is the very book that I want to read.
(4) All that they told me surprised me.
(5) They talked about the teachers and schools that they had visited.
(6) Who is the comrade that was there?
(7) There is a bed in the room that is still vacant.
(8) Our village is no longer the place that it used to be.
(9) He paid the boy $10 for washing the windows, most of which hadn’t been cleaned at least a year.
(10) The weather turned out to be very good, which was more than we could expect.
(11) The clever boy made a hole in the wall, through which he could see what was going on inside the house.
Conclusion 3:
1)when the antecedent refers to thing(s), “that” is often used in the following cases:
(1) after ordinal number and superlatives
(2) after the following words: all, only, little, few, much, very, none, last, just, any(thing), every(thing), some(thing), no(thing).
(3) after two or more antecedents, referring to both person(s) and thing(s).
(4) after interrogative pronouns “which” or “who”.
(5) When the relative pronoun is used as a predictive in the clause.
(6) When the main clause begins with “there be “.
2) In the following cases, “which” is always used.
①After prepositions
②to introduce a non-restrictive attributive clause.
③The whole main sentence is the “antecedent” of the relative clause, and there is always a comma.
More exercises:
Fill in the blanks with suitable relatives to complete the following sentences.
1) Tell me the reason why you were late for class.
2) Who is the girl that is speaking there?
3) This is Mr. Smith, who has something interesting to tell you.
4) The computer whose CPU doesn’t work has to be repaired.
5) This kind of computer, which is well-known, is out of date.
6) This is just the place that I’ve been longing to visit for years.
7) His mother is an engineer, which makes him very proud.
8) The old man has 4 sons, three of whom are doctors
Step 4: The attributive clause and the appositive clause
一、从词类上区别
同位语从句前面的名词只能是idea, fact, news, hope, belief, suggestion. proposal, word, thought, doubt, truth, possibility, promise, order等表示抽象意义的名词。而定语从句的先行词可以是名词、代词、主句的一部分或整个主句。如:
We are looking into the question whether he is worth trusting.
我们正在调查的是他是否值得信赖的问题。(同位语从句)
Word came that he had gone abroad.
据说他已经出国了。(同位语从句)
The doctor whom you are looking for is in the room.
你找的那位医生在房间里面。(定语从句,名词the doctor作先行词)
Our team has won the game, which makes us very happy.
(定语从句,which代表前面提到的整个句子)
His mother did all she could to help him with his study.
他妈妈尽最大努力帮他学习。
(定语从句,代词all作先行词)
二、从性质上区别
定语从句是从句对其先行词的修饰或限制,属于形容词性从句的范畴;而同位语从句是从句对前面抽象名词的进一步说明和解释,属于名词性从句的范畴。如:
The news that our team has won the game is true.
我们队赢了那场比赛的消息是真的。
The news (that) he told me yesterday is true.
昨天他告诉我的那个消息是真的。(定语从句,that 从句作定语修饰news)
I made a promise that if anyone set me free, I would make him very rich.
我许诺如果谁让我自由,我就让他非常富有。(同位语从句,补充说明promise)
The mother made a promise that pleased all her children.
妈妈做出了一个令她的孩子们高兴的许诺。(定语从句,that从句作定语修饰promise。)
三、从引导词及其在句子中的成份上区别有些引导词如how, whether, what可以引导同位语从句,但不能引导定语从句。如:
That question whether we need it has not been considered.
我们是否需要它这个问题还没有考虑。(同位语从句)
I have no idea what has happened to him.
我不知道他发生了什么事。(同位语从句)
引导词that引导定语从句时,在从句中一般作主语或宾语(指物时还可以用which代替),并且作宾语时常常省略。That在同位语从句中仅起连接作用,不充当任何成份,并且不能省略,也不能用which来代替。
The order that we (should) send a few people to help the other groups was received yesterday.
我们应派几个人去帮助别的几个小组的命令昨天已收到了。(同位语从句,是对order的具体解释,that虽不作成份,但不能省略)
The order (that) we received yesterday was that we (should) send a few people to help the other groups.
我们昨天收到的命令是我们应该派几个人去帮助别的几个小组。(定语从句,是名词order的修饰语,that在从句中作received的宾语,可以省略)
Step 5: The attributive clause and the emphasis structure
强调句型的句式结构为:“It is/was + 被强调部分 + that/who从句”。在强调时间、地点、原因或方式状语时,一律用that,而不用when, why或how;在强调主语和宾语时,如果主语和宾语指代人,则可用who和whom来代替that, 但是从句中的人称和数要与被强调的主语和宾语保持一致。这些都容易与定语从句混淆。
定语从句和强调句型的判断方法:若将句中的“It is/was”和“that/who”去掉,而句子不缺成分,结构完整,说明原句是强调句型;若句子结构不完整,则说明原句为定语从句。
1) It was not until 1920 ____ regular radio broadcasts began. (1995高考卷)

Teaching steps:
I. Revision
T: Yesterday you were required to ask more questions about water’s properties and find out the detailed information about water properties as well. So now let’s have a little quiz about the properties of water.
True of false questions:
1) Water is a liquid at room temperature, and it has a relatively high freezing point.
2) The reason why water can dissolve most substances on earth is that water has high heat capacity.
3) Like all the other substances, water gets smaller (contract) when it freezes.
4) Pure water has a higher freezing point and lighter than salt water.
5) The salinity of the earth’s oceans is about 3.5%.
6) When water freezes, its density increases.
7) Other recourses such as oil, gas, gold etc is as precious as a drop of rain.
(TFFTT FF)
II. While-reading
1. As we all know, Charles Darwin is famous for his “The Origin of Species”. (According to his theory of evolution)
Qs: 1) Was there any life on the earth billions of years ago?
2) If any, what was the original life like at that time?
3) Where did it live? -In the deep blue seas.
4) How does the world take its shape, which is quite different from what it used to be, especially those various organisms? -Billions of years’ natural selection.
2.It is said that 99% of the living space on earth is in the oceans.
Qs: 1) What does this fact result in? -Marine life is incredibly rich and varied.
2) Can you give some specific numbers or examples?
-There are about five million species in the oceans. They range from the tiniest plants all the way up to giants (e.g. sharks and whales).
3) What does this fact imply? Do you agree?
-Water is an excellent medium for life.
4) Why do you agree that water is an excellent medium for life? (Based on common knowledge)
Water is a liquid at room temperature and has a relatively high freezing point;
All living creatures need food to survive, but on many occasions the nutrients become available to living things only when they are dissolved by water.
3.So we know that one of water’s properties is its dissolvability(溶解性).
Qs: 1) Do you know what gives water such a unique property?
-The chemical structure of water.
2) What does the water molecule look like?
-A water molecule consists of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. The two hydrogen atoms are bonded to one oxygen atom to form a 'V' shape. The two hydrogen atoms form a polar molecule, that is, one with a slightly positive end and one with a slightly negative end.
3) Can you give some other examples which are also resulted from water’s unique chemical structure?
-Plants can pull water up their roots via a capillary(毛细管) process;
-We can get a lot of nutrients by drinking soup.
That’s water’s another property-dissolvability.
4. Since water is such a universal solvent, it can dissolve just about anything including many gases and solids. As a result, there is sea water.
Qs: 1) Do you know the salinity of the earth’s oceans? -about 3.5%.
2) What does it mean?
3) Have you ever noticed such a phenomenon that in winter water in some containers or small rivers often freezes while that in seas not? Can you explain it?
-The salinity of sea water can affect the freezing point of water. Sea water has a lower a freezing point, so even when the temperature of sea water falls below 0℃, sea water is still liquid.
5. However, no matter whether it is sea water or pure water, “wood floats on water while iron sinks” always works. How do you explain that? What property of water is this?
-If a substance has a lower density than water does, it will float on water; Otherwise, it will sink.
Qs: 1) What is density? And what’s the density of pure water?
-Density is the relationship between mass and volume and is measured in kilos per cubic meter (kg/m3). The density of water is 1,000kg/m3.
2) Does it also go for the phenomenon that Ice looks larger than water of equal mass?
-Yes. Water’s density decreases when it turns to ice, so its volume increases.
3) Does all the water in the same river or ocean have equal density? Tell your reasons.
-No. Changes in salinity and temperature affect water’s density. Cold water of high salinity usually is most dense and will tend to sink to the bottom of the ocean.
6. Qs: 1) What do different densities in the ocean result in?
-Dense water sinks and less dense water is pushed to the surface. Thus water in the ocean is always moving.
2) What phenomena can this result help us explain? Please give examples. (If necessary, give students some hints such as showing a picture etc.)
Ocean motion helps move nutrients around and adds energy to the marine ecosystems.
Different marine creatures live in different levels of the ocean. (Because of the foods they need, sunshine etc.)
7. Read following statement and think what conclusion you can draw? Or what property does it refer to?
It is said that a man of 60kg loses about 1L water through breath and skin evaporation (皮肤蒸发) every day. In other words, 539kcal heat is released in these two ways. If so much heat were kept in human body, it would raise body temperature by 9℃. Can you imagine the result?
-Water has a relatively high heat capacity and can accommodate the climate automatically. It can absorb and release a lot of heat without big changes in its temperature, thus creating a stable environment.
8. Here are some more familiar phenomena.
What property of water is each of them related to?
The coastal areas are often neither too hot nor too cold. (Water’s high heat capacity)
Ice floats on water. (Density)
When the sea water in a container is evaporated (蒸发), there will be some salt left. (Dissolvability)
Irrigate in winter can help raise the soil temperature. (Water’s high heat capacity)
People swimming in the Dead Sea float; they can even read a paper while lying on their back in the water. (salinity and density)

2. What causes water to have such unique properties?
-It’s molecule form / chemical structure.
3. What is water molecule like?
Chemical structure: two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.
Different parts of it: a slightly positive end and a slightly negative end, so it is polar.
The function of it: it causes water to be able to dissolve both solids and gases, and that’s why water can break down nutrients quickly.
4. Do pure water and salt water have the same chemical structure? Does pure water have salinity?
Qs: 1) What’s salinity?
2) What is sea / salt water? - A mixture of pure water, dissolved gases and solids.
3) How does salinity affect water?
4) How does it affect water’s weight and freezing point?
- The higher salinity water has, the heavier the water is.
The higher salinity is, the lower the freezing point of water is.
5. Salinity also has something to do with the density of water. The higher salinity is, the higher density of water is.
Qs: 1) What is density?
2) How is density measured?
3) Which is denser, water or oil?
4) What will happen when water and oil are in the same container? What does this phenomenon illustrate?
-Oil floats on water. A less dense substance floats on a denser substance.
5) Does water in the same ocean have the same density?
-No. Denser water sinks and pushes less dense water to the surface.
6. That’s why the ocean water will never stop moving. Ocean motion
Qs: 1) What does ocean motion mean?
2) How does ocean motion work?
-Denser water sinks and pushes less dense water to the surface.
Ocean motion helps move nutrients around and adds energy to the marine ecosystems.
3) What causes ocean motion?
-Changes in salinity and temperature.
7. The temperature of the ocean water always keeps steady, making the ocean a safe and comfortable habitat. Do you know why?
-Water has a relatively high heat capacity.
Qs: 1) What is heat capacity?
2) What’s the function of heat capacity?
-It determines how a substance absorbs and releases heat;
It keeps water temperature steady;
It keeps the earth’s temperature steady.
III. Reflection
1. There is a close relationship between some properties of water, for example, salinity, density and ocean motion. How do they affect each other?
2. Suppose you are one of the main properties of water (resolvability, salinity, density …). You think you are the most important and have the greatest effect on life. Try to persuade others by describing: 1) What you are.
2) What affects you.
3) What you are made the most of by human beings.

Homework
1. Preview Integrating Skills “Nature’s Nursery: Estuaries” on page 22
Period 4 Integrating Skills
Teaching goals:
1. To get students to know what estuaries are and their functions
2. To learn to write an explanation paragraph
Teaching procedures:
I. Lead-in
Look at the map of China, answer these questions:
1. Can you name the three cities marked on the map? Where are they? (Chongqing, Shanghai, Dalian )I
2. How much do you know about them? Is the economy there well-developed or not?
3. Which city is the most developed? Why?
Now let’s look at this map and then answer the following questions:
1. Can you tell what map it is? Where is it?
2. Is the water here salty or fresh?
3. What’s the place called where river and the ocean meet?
II. While-reading
1. Skimming
1) Find out the definition of estuary.
(An estuary is the body of water where a river meets the ocean. Salt water from the ocean and fresh water from the river mix together in an estuary. This mixing of fresh and salt water creates a unique environment filled with life of all kinds---- a zone between the land and sea.)
2) What functions of estuaries have been mentioned in the passage?
(Great places for nature’s young animals clean our water by absorbing nutrients and pollutants from water coming from inland sources; provide both recreation and education for human beings.)
3) Discussion.
What living conditions do you think are needed for nature’s young ones?
Do estuaries have such conditions for them?
2. Discussion
What living conditions do you think are needed for nature’s young ones?
Do estuaries have such conditions for them?
3. Scan the passage and answer the following questions.
Why are estuaries such good places for nature’s young ones?
What does “density” mean in this passage?
How do estuaries affect the water that passes through them?
Why are estuaries more sensitive to pollution than other areas?
Why are estuaries important to human beings?
(Answer to question 1) In estuaries, animals can enjoy all the benefits of the oceans without having to face many of its dangers. Tides provide energy for the ecosystems, but estuaries are protected from waves and storms by islands, mud or sand. Nutrients from both the land and the ocean arrive in estuaries.
(Answer to question 2) It means the degree to which an area is filled with things or people.
(Answer to question 3) They absorb nutrients and pollutants from water coming inland sources, thus cleaning our water.
(Answer to question 4) Because estuaries act as filters(过滤器), many pollutants end up in them.
(Answer to question 5) Estuaries provide both recreation and education for human beings. For example, people can fish, swim and have fun on the beach; scientists and students have endless opportunities to study a variety of life in the habitat. Estuaries also contribute to the economy through tourism and fishing.
4. Finish the following passage with words from the text.
Estuaries are bodies of water along coasts that are ________ (形成) when fresh water from rivers ________ with salt water from the ocean. In estuaries, the fresh river water is blocked from streaming into the open ocean by either surrounding mainland, or islands. This mixing of fresh and salt water _______ a unique environment ______ with life of all kinds -- a zone between the land and sea known as an estuary. The estuary gathers and holds a ______ of life--giving nutrients from the land and from the ocean, forming an ecosystem that contains more creatures than any other ________ on the earth. Estuaries are also important for human beings. They protect water quality by ________ pollutants from water coming from inland sources. They are centers for _______(娱乐) and education. Estuaries, in short, are treasures.
(formed, mixes, creates, filled, variety, habitat, absorbing, entertainment)
III. Post-reading Discussion
As we learn from this passage, many cities which are built around estuaries, like Shanghai, Guangzhou, Ningbo, Shenzhen are very developed. Can you explain why?
( They are near Yangtze River Delta, Pearl River Delta…)
(Convenient transportation, rich resources…)
IV. Writing
Do you still remember what we learn about the properties of water? In that passage, the writer introduces the chemical structure and several properties of water to us, such as salinity, density, heat capacity. So from this we know when we are explaining what something is or how things happen, it is important that our explanations should be well organized and easy to understand.
Tip one
If we are describing a process,we’d better explain each step in the order it happens. Tell the readers about the causes and effects and use words like first, second, then, etc to show the order of the steps.
First…
Second…
Third/ Then…
Last…
Tip two
If we are writing about something that has several parts, we should describe each part and explain its function and structure.
The following questions may help:
What is it? How many parts is it made up of?
What’s the structure of each part? How does it work?
Homework
Imagine that your science teacher ask you to explain one of the following questions:
Why does an ice cube float?
What will happen to a piece of metal if you put it in water?
Why do so many species live in estuaries?
Why have so many cities been built by estuaries?
Choose one of the questions and write a passage, using what you know about nature and science and what you have learned from this unit.
Period 5 Speaking
Teaching aim:
1. Get students to talk about the main use of water in our life and their effects.
2. Draw students’ attention to the importance of using, saving and protecting our water as well.
Teaching procedures:
I. Revision
1) Can you use your own words to tell us the general idea of the two reading passages?
2) What do you learn from our previous classes?
- Water is necessary / a must to life. Without water, life, as we all know, would not exist.
II. Speaking
1. Pre-speaking
1) Do you agree with the saying “Without water, life would not exist.”?
2) So not only you and I agree with this opinion, but also the United Nations hold the same view. And that’s why we have World Water Day.
Q: Is there anyone who knows when it is? - Mar. 22
3) Brief background information about World Water Day: World Day for Water is established by the United Nations General Assembly's resolution 47/193 of 22 December 1992. It is a unique occasion to remind everybody that concrete efforts to provide clean drinking water and increase awareness world-wide of the problems and of the solutions, can help make the difference.
4) Last year we witnessed some great disasters such as the typhoon “Yunna” and the tsunami in the India Ocean. What a coincidence that the theme for World Water Day was “Water and Disaster”. World Water Day will be guided by the upcoming water decade's theme ”Water for Life“. It will be the starting day for this International Decade for Action, ”Water for Life".
2. While-speaking
1) To some extent, the existence of World Water Day also implies that human beings cannot live without water. Why? Can you tell how water is being used in our life? Give some examples.
-electricity, agriculture, home use, industry, transport, entertainment, etc.
2) Look at the first picture (“electricity”) in the textbook and talk about it.
The water is being used to generate electricity. Building up behind a high dam, water accumulates potential energy (势能). This is transformed into mechanical energy when the water rushes down. It is a good way to use water because water is renewable green energy. It will never run out if only we use it properly and generating electricity by using water is a better way to protect the environment than others. However, it takes a great sum of money and a long period of time to build a dam and prepare all the required equipment. Since nowadays electricity has already been an indispensable part of our life, most people benefit from using water in this way.
3) Group work. Divide students into several groups with six in each. Each one takes charge of one picture. When discussing each picture, please think about the following questions:
How is water being used?
What property of water enables it to be used in this way?
Why do we use water in this way?
Who benefits from using water in this way?
Is this a good way to use water?
What are some disadvantages of using water in this way?
4) Pair work. Each six-member group can be divided into three smaller ones with two in each. Make a dialogue on the basis of the results about your topics we reach, using following useful expressions:
The water is being used to / for … We should / could …
What will we do if …? If we …, we can …
It would be better to … Can you think of a better way?
3. Post-speaking
1) Just now we’ve talked about six main ways of using water and their disadvantages as well as advantages. Here I have something more for you.
① Read following short passage by yourself.
No matter who we are, where we are, or what we do, we are all dependent on water. It is the source of all life and we need it every day. But with the world's growing population and fast developing economies, the earth's water reserves are drying up fast.
As many as 7 billion people throughout the world could face a water shortage by 2050 if the present situation continues. By then, the global population is expected to reach 9.3 billion. Many big cities, including Beijing, Shanghai and Tianjin, will suffer severe water shortages.
This alarming situation was shown in a United Nations (UN) report just ahead of World Water Day, which falls on March 22.
② Watch a flash “A prediction for water”
2) Q: What information have you got from the passage and flash?
-Water is very important to each of us. We must try our best to save and protect our precious water; otherwise, we will suffer a lot and even bring disasters upon ourselves.
3) Q: How can we save and protect water in our daily life?
Take home use for example,
Reduce faucet flow. Avoid letting the water run when brushing teeth, washing dishes, and shaving etc.
Reduce shower flow. Install a water-efficient shower head and spend 2 minutes less in the shower.
Replace aging toilets and clothes washers with high efficiency models. Take advantage of City rebates offered for low-flow and Wash Wise models.
Repair leaks. Find and fix faucet and toilet leaks.
Use natural lawn & garden care practices. Dig compost into soil to increase water retention and apply mulch around plants to avoid evaporation.
Reduce outdoor water use. Use a commercial car wash that recycles water. Sweep the driveway instead of hosing it off.
We ourselves should have a strong sense of preserving water and tell others to protect it too.
Start from the little things right under our noses. For example, don’t litter or pour rubbish into rivers at will.
Avoid cutting down trees especially where the source of river lies.
…
4) Enjoy a flash about saving water. For the second time, we may turn off the sound and let students dub it in English if possible.
4. Homework
Read the requirements in Talking (P.96) and finish it in the form of report.

I The introduction to the poet:
Samuel.Taylor Coleridge (1772-1834), English poet, critic, and philosopher (哲学家), who was a leader of the romantic movement. Coleridge was born in Ottery Saint Mary on October21, 1772, the son of a clergyman (牧师). From 1791 until 1794 he attended Jesus College, University of Cambridge, except for a brief period when he was deeply in debt and entered the army. At the university he absorbed political and theological (神学的) ideas and left Cambridge without a degree.
The previous year Coleridge had met and begun what was to be a lifelong friendship with the poet William Wordsworth and his sister Dorothy. The two men published a joint volume of poetry, Lyrical Ballads (抒情诗) in 1798, which became a landmark (里程碑) in English poetry; it contained the first great works of the romantic school (学派) , such as the famous “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner”.
II The introduction to the poem:
From the title, “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner” can be read as a tale of horror in which a mariner is hounded(追逼)by disaster after murdering an albatross (信天翁). In fact, his main theme is that all things that inhabit the natural world have an inherent (内在的) value and beauty, and that it is necessary for humanity to recognize and respect these qualities. “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner” is an excellent example of Romantic poetry and is often read to understand the characteristics of this poetic genre (流派).

S2: New buildings and sports venues will be built…
T: Yes, there will be some new buildings. Please look some of them.
( Show the pictures of the main stadium, and the stadium of football, baseball, volleyball and weightlifting.)
Step 4: Discussion
T: After our building success, we will have a new Beijing and all of us expect the Great Olympics. But as we know, our China had a difficult way to bid for the host. At first for the 2000, but because of some reasons, we failed. Later for the 2008, then we succeeded. During the course, I think most of us support it. But there are also some people against it, because they think that being the host of the Olympics will not only have good effects but also bad effects on the host city. So here we have a discussion. In your opinion,
Is it important and necessary to host the Olympic Games in China? Why or why not?
When you are discussing in your group, you can list some good effects and bad effects. Now begin your group discussion.
(After some minutes, let some group give their discussing results. Then list some good effects and bad effects on the screen.)
Step 5: Summary and Homework
T: After your discussion, which effects are greater, the good effects or the bad effects?
S: The good effects!
T: Yes, we all see the good effects are greater. So we all expect an excellent ever 2008 Olympic Games. And we should do our best to support it. So here is our homework:
What can we do for the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games?
You can discuss with your classmates after class, and please write a passage about this topic on your exercise books, about 150 words, clear?
S: Yes.
T: OK, today we will stop here. Thank you!
Work in pairs or groups and discuss the following questions.
1. If you wanted to do research or start a hi-tech company, what king of support and environment would you need?
2. Why are scientific achievements important? Look at the list of achievements in the Warming up. How do they improve our daily life? How do they improve society?
3. Why do scientists spend so much time trying to achieve something?
Whatever great achievements the future may have in store for China, it is likely that many of them will be born in northwestern Beijing. Zhongguancun, in Beijing’s Haidian District, is the new center for Chinese science and technology. It is home to the Chinese Academy of Sciences and more than ten famous universities, including Peking University and Tsinghua University.
Zhongguancun was set up as a special economic zone in the late 1990s and quickly became the leader of China’s hi-tech industry. The science center got started in the early 1980s, when Chen Chunxian, a researcher at the Chinese Academuy of Sciences opened a private research and development institute. Within the nest ten years, more than a hundred scientific and hi-tech companies moved into the area and new hi-tech centers developed around the original Zhongguancun area. They all have their own characteristics, but they all share the spirit of creativity and scientific skill that have made Zhongguancun a success.
The science park is also home to a growing numver of overseas Chinese who have grasped the opportunity to develop their ideas at home. Xiang Yufang is one of those who have returned to China after studying and working abroad. Zhongguancun made it possible for him to follow his dreams and help the country he loves.
“ I studied abroad because I wanted to see more of the world and work with some of the top scientists in my field. I never felt really comfortable abroad, and I missed everything about China. When I got my master’s degree, I wanted to return home but couldn’t find a company where I could use what I had learnt. I worked abroad for a few years and then I heard about Zhongguancun. I knew it was perfect for me.”
Yufang talked to some friends from his university in Beijing and they helped arrange for his return. He left his job in the foreign company and came back to Beijing.
“ I was so happy. It was wonderful, like a dream come true. I could do the work I wanted to do and do something good for my country at the same time. I will never forget how happy I was when I set foot in China again and was back with my friends and family.”
Yufang has been in China for three years now and is doing well. He lives in Beijing and runs a small company based in Zhongguancun together with two friends.
Zhongguancun has had a positive effect on business as well as science. Today, there are more than 8,000 hi-tech companies. The park is home to Chinese computer giants Lenovo and Founder and more than twenty famous international companies. One of the mottos for the park --- “Relying on science, technology and knowledge to increase economic power”--- makes it clear that science and business and must work together to build the future. Another motto helps explain the success of the park: “ Encouraging pioneering work and accepting failure.” Great scientific achievements are the results of years of failure, years of trying to create something that has never existed before.
The researchers and scientists in Zhongguancun know that they can only reach the top if they are ready to deal with and learn from failure. Not all the new companies can succeed, but the spirit and creativity they represent are more important than money. As Yufang puts it: “We are not making that much money yet, but we are excited about all the new technology and great ideas that are coming to life in Zhongguancun.”
