I guess most of you have enjoyed your holiday.Maybe I should say every one has enjoyed a scie ntific life. Why? Because you haveenjoyed the results of the scienee and scientists. Nowcan you tell me the scientistswho inven ted the lights, the gramoph one and the computer?S1: Edis on inven ted the lights and the gramoph one.S2: The first computer was inven ted by a group of America n scie ntists.Step n Warming upFirst, ask some questions about great scientists. Second, tell all the students to play the game called Guess Who I Am.T: You know our life is closely related to scie nee and scie ntists. We ben efit a lot from them. Can you n ame out as many scie ntists as possible?T; what contributions did they make?T: Ok, you' ve known a lot about scientists and now let ' s play a game called Guess Who I Am. I will show you some hints of a scie ntist one by one, and you guess the name of the scientist. Let ' s see which group will do the best.1. I lived in ancient Greek.2. I was a mathematicia n.3. I discovered that objects in water were lifted up by a force that helped themfloat.An swer: Archimedes1. I lived in Brita in.2. I published The Origin Of Species .3.

Encourage the students to express their different opinions.T: Now, class, please look at the slide. Discuss these questions with your partners. Then I ' ll ask some students to report their work.Show the followi ng on the scree n:1. What do you know about in fectious diseases?2. What do you know about cholera?3. Do you know how to prove a new idea in scie ntific research?4. What order would you put the seve n in? Just guess.T: Well done! Whenwewant to solve some problems, first we should find out the problem, do some research on it, prove your findin gs, and the n make a con clusi on. This isa scientific and objective way of researching. Now let ' s see how doctor John Snow did his research. Step IV ReadingT: Now lets read the title and the picture and guess what the passage may tell us.T: The effect of cholera in the nin etee nth cen tury London was devastati ng. Manypeople died without knowing the reason. It was doctor John Snowwho saved the people. Please look at the screen. Let' s read the whole passage quickly and find the number below and the releva nt happe nings in the passage.(Competiti on among groups)Step V Text analyzingAsk the stude nts to an alyze the text in groups.T: Please look at the chart on the scree n. The chart shows that each paragraph ofthe text explains John Snow s stages in his research.

He was thinking about something when he noticed he came to a very, very narrow road. Just at that time, a young man came towards him from the other end of the road. It was too narrow for both of them to pass through at the same time. They stopped and looked at each other for a while. Then the young man said rudely，“I never make way for a fool. ” But Goethe smiled and said, “I always do. ” Then he turned back quickly and walked towards the end of the road.Weather ReportHere' s the weather report for the next 24 hours. Beijing will be fine with the temperature from 4 to 13. Tokyo will be fine too and cloudy later in the day. The lowest temperature is l to 8. London will be rainy and windy later in the day. The highest temperature is 8 and the lowest is 4. NewYork will be sunny and cloudy later in the day. The temperature is 13 to 19.Heartbeat ingPut your hand to the left side of your chest. Try to feel your heartbeating.The heart takes a little rest after each pump or beat. In boys or girls of your age, heart beats about 90 times a minute. A grown- up' s heart beats about 70 or 80 times a minute. But the heartbeat is different in the same person at different times. For example, the heart beats faster during exercise. It is also faster when a person is an gry, scared, or excited. During sleep, the heartbeat slows dow n.Sample an swers:S1: I think the first piece “Making A Way is in a style of creative writing. The second piece belongs to a description style. The third piece belongs to a report style.T: Very good. Now let ' s return to our text. Who can tell me the main idea of thispassage?S2: I can. Clearly it tells us how Joh n Snow defeated the disease cholera by doing scie ntific research. Step W Language PointsStep 忸HomeworkThe Sec ond Period Exte nsive Readi ngStep I Revisi onAsk the stude nts to retell the text.Step n Pre -readingShow the picture of the Solar System and remind them of the com mon kno wledge of “ Sun-Centered Theory ”.T: Today we are going to lear n more about scie nee and scie ntists.

This period we will also deal with a scie ntific report. Please read the passage quickly and try to an swer the questio ns on the scree n.Show the questi ons on the scree n.1. What ' s Copernicus ' fear?2. How did Coper ni cus prove his theory?3. What is his theory?Sample an swers:S1: I have the answer. Copernicus found his theory was against the Christian church ' s say in g. If he spoke out his finding, he would be puni shed s everely.S2: Let me an swer the third questi on. Coper ni cus had thought long and hard about these problems which astr ono mers had no ticed and tried to find an an swer. He used all his mathematical calculati ons to work on these problems. He had collected observations of the stars for over ten years. All his calculations and observations proved that his theory was right.S3: Copernicus ' theory can be expressed in this way: The sun is the center of theuni verse. All pla nets went around the sun in solar system.Step IV Further -readingThis time the stude nts are en couraged to read the two passages carefully and the n do the exercises and problems on pages 7.T: Now class. Please read the passage aga in. And finish EX 1 and the n discuss the questio ns on the scree n in groups.As a scie ntist, one should be brave. But Coper ni cus was afraid of being attackedby the Christian Church. So he had hidden his theory for so many years. What do you thi nk of this? Sample an swers:Q1: 1.1 think Copernicus was very coward. He should speak out his discovery and let the world know the truth earlier.2. I don ' t agree with you. He was more cautious than coward. If he had published his ideas, he would have bee n killed just as Bruno who was bur nt to death because his theory was against the Chri stian Church ' s.T: I quite agree with you. And I am glad you have known so much about the scie nee.Step V Language PointsAnd the n write the follow ing sentences on the blackboard; ask the stude nts to payatte nti on to the past participle. Guide them to find out their fun cti ons in the senten ces.Show the followi ng on the scree n.1. Nicolas Coper ni cus was frighte ned and his mind was con fused .2. He placed a fixed sun at the center of the solar system ...3. He joined these points together using curved lines ...T: Please read the three senten ces and tell me what parts of speech the past participles are acting as. Step W Homework1. Search on the Internet for more in formatio n about Coper ni cus and Euler.2. Prepare for the Ianguage study, reviewing the words and expressions in this unit.The Third Period Lan guage StudyStep I Revision and Lead -inTask 1: Ask the students to turn to pages 4 and 42 and do Exercise 1.
