RevisionCheck the homework with the whole class.Step II. Warming upAsk the students to read the instructions and make sure they know what to do, and then have adiscussion about the two pictures.T: Today, before we begin our reading, I 'd like to ask you a question,What is the biggest s you have heard in your life ”S1: The sound of wind that blew in a winter night when I was very young. It sounded like a ghost who was howling. I was very frightened at that time.S2: The biggest noise was the one that I heard when my neighbor was quarrelling with his wife. Perhaps, they broke their TV set.T: That 's too terrible.S3: The noise when planes take off.S4: The sound of trains.T: Good! I agree that all of them are big sound. But did you once heard the sound that the heaven falls and the earth cracks, in Chinese it is 天崩地裂Ss: No, we have no chance to hear that.T: If there is a sound like this, what is itS5: When someone hears something unexpected and terrible. For example, when one of his loved families dies, he will feel this sound.T: Terrific! You are using a literary way to express the sound.S6: When an earthquake happens.T: Great! I have waited for this answer for a long time. Today we' lllearn something about earthquakes. Ithink most of us have heard of earthquakes. Can you imagine how terrible it is S7: The earth is shaking .All the buildings will fall down.S8: Many people will die. And perhaps many children will lose their parents.T: Yeah, earthquakes are disasters to everybody. Now look at the two pictures of Tangshan and San Francisco. Can you describe what you see in the picturesS1: Tangshan is a beautiful city. It has beautiful gardens, broad roads and some tall buildings.S2: From the picture of San Francisco, I can see that it is a very big city. There are many tall buildings thickly standing on the earth. I think the population of the city is very large.T: Good! What will happen if there has been a big earthquake in these two cities Work in pairs and discuss it. Then I 'll ask so me of you to show your opinion.Step III. Pre-readingThere are two questions in this part. Both are very interesting. The first one can more or less reveal the students 'values; while the second one can enlarge their imagination. Nomatter what their answers are, as long as they have given careful thoughts to the situations, theiranswers should be good.T: Now, let 's look at the pictures. What are the predictions ofe a nrthquakeS1: Before an earthquake animals will become nervous. Cows, pigs, horses and dogs will be upset. And people can see mice running about. If the earthquake happens during winter, people can even see snakes.T: Terrific! Where did you get this knowledgeS1: From geography. I like it.T: good. Sit down please.S2: Madam, I don ' t know the meaning of the picture with two women.T: It doesn 'mt atter. You will know it soon after reading our text. OK. Imagine there is an earthquake now, and your home is shaking, at this moment you have no time to take any other things but one, what will it beS3: I ' ll take all my money. People can ' t live without money.S4: I will take as much water as possible.

She is my most loved person in this world. She brought me up. T: What a dutiful child you are! I ' m very glad to hear that. Sit down please! It seems that all of you know what you should do during an earthquake. OK. Let ' s read our text, and see what it tellsus.Step IV. ReadingIn this part, teacher should ask the students to read the passage quickly for the first time to get the general idea of the passage. Ask them to pay attention to the first sentence of each paragraph.This can help them finish exercise3 in Comprehension. It is about the main idea of each paragraph.Then ask them to read the text again carefully to obtain some details. Before reading for the second time, show some questions on the screen, and let the students read the questions first. Thesequestions can guide them to have a good understanding about the text. They can also make preparations for Exs1-2,which are about details.SkimmingT: At first I ' d like to read the text quickly to get the general idea of the article.While reading, you should pay attention to the sentence of each paragraph.T: Have you got the general idea of the textSs: Yes.T: What is itS1: There is no quick answer to this question . Are you suggesting us that the general idea is the mixture of the first sentences of each paragraphT: Sure.S1:OK. That 'esasy. The main idea of the passage is some signs of the earthquake, and what would happen during the quake.T: Good, sit down please. In fact, while we are answering the questions, we have involved the sequence, the functional item for this unit. (Teacher writes the word on the blackboard ) Do you understand themeaning of the wordSs: No.T: Sequence means the order of the events. It can tell us which event happens first, and which happens later. Do you know the sequence that is used in our textS3: Yes. At first, the text tells us something that happened before the quake, then it tells us the things that happened during the quake and at last it tells us the things that happened after the earthquake.
