Teaching Procedure
Step 1 Greeting
T: Hello, boys and girls.
Ss: Hello, Miss Wang.
Step 2 Revision
T: Today we will begin our lesson with a competition between groups. In the last period, we learnt about John Snow who defeats “King Cholera”. Now, please say something that you know about it. If you offer a complete sentence, you will be given ten marks. Your group will be given twenty marks when your expression is especially beautiful.
S: John Snow was a well-known doctor in London, who attended Queen Victoria to ease the birth of her babies.
S: He became inspired when he thought about helping ordinary people exposed to cholera, which was the deadly disease of his day.
S: John Snow got interested in two theories explaining how cholera killed people.
S: He believed in the second theory that is people absorbed this disease into their bodies with their meals. From the stomach the disease attacked the body quickly and soon the affected person was dead.
Ss: . . .
(The teacher should encourage more students to join in the competition. At the end of the competition, the teacher should announce the result of this competition. Praise the winner and encourage the losers. )
T: What can we learn from John Show?
S: We should base our theories on practice.
S: We are inspired to have a spirit of scientific exploration.
S: We do some research with the purpose of serving the people and society.
Ss: . . .
T: Yes, we can learn a lot from the scientist. In fact, there are a great number of people working on science worthy of being learned both at home and abroad. Can you name some scientists and introduce their main contributions?
S: Archimedes, who discovered that objects in water are lifted up by a force that helps them float.
S: Darwin wrote a book explaining how animals and plants developed as the environment changed.
S: Madam Curie discovered radium.
S: Stephen Hawking put forward a theory about black holes.
S: Zhang heng invented the earliest instrument to tell people where earthquakes happened.
Ss: . . .
T: You did a good job and listed many scientists as well as their contributions. Today, we are going to learn about more scientists.
Step 3 Listening (on Pages 5-6)
Task 1 Pre-listening
T: First let’s enjoy the picture. What can you see?
S: President Jiang Zemin and an old man.
T: President Jiang Zemin visited Qian Xuesen.
T: What have you already known about Qian Xuesen?
S: He is a Chinese scientist, whose research mainly centers on Physics.
S: He is honored as “Chinese Rocket Father”.
S: He has made great contributions to space travel in
T: Good. You seem to have a good knowledge of him. Qian Xuesen is a famous scientist who has contributed much to the country’s cause of science and technology.
Task 2 First Listening
T: We are to listen to the material, which is about Qian Xuesen. Yu Ping is telling her friend Steve Smith about Qian Xuesen’s life. If you were Yu Ping, what topics would you like to cover when introducing him?
S: The date when he was born and he died;the place where he was born, lived, studied and died;his family;his experience;his achievements;his contributions
T: Excellent. When we talk about and introduce a scientist, we usually describe these aspects. Now, listen carefully and tick out which topics are mentioned in the tape.
(After listening, let them check the answers. )
Task 3 Second Listening
T: This time. You’ll write down the answers to the five questions. Boys and girls, how can we write the answers fast and correctly?
S: We should go through the questions first and keep them in mind. When we are listening, we just need to pay much attention to the sentences related to the answers.
S: We needn’t write down each word of the answers. We just write down some key words. Later we can write down the complete answers with the help of these key words.
T: You are clever. Now please get ready. First, look through the introduction to the listening material. Then, scan the questions.
(Two minutes later, the teacher plays the tape. Then give Ss time to organize their sentences. )
T: Let’s check the answers one by one.
(If the students make some common mistakes or they seem to have difficulty in finding out answers, teachers can give them some hints and let them listen to it again. After that, check the answers. If the students feel it difficult to make sense about the key words and understand the speakers’ intention and attitude, the teacher should give them some help. )
Task 4 Post-listening
T: After listening, would you please answer some questions?
1 What did you hear on the tape?
2 What can you learn from Qian Xuesen?
(At this part the teacher may have the students present what they have heard on the tape and show their own opinion about what they have learned from him. If possible, the teacher may have some of the students do the presentation work in class. By doing this, the students can get full understanding of what the tape is talking about. )
Step 4 Listening (Page 41)
Task 1 Pre-listening
T: Just now we learned about a Chinese scientist, Qian Xuesen, who has made great contributions on space travel in
S: Carl Linnaeus, maybe Darwin.
T: You are right. Both scientists did study botany and devoted their time to the research. As we know, Carl Linnaeus developed his system about how to classify species. While Darwin wrote a book on the Original of Species, in which he explained how animals and plants developed as the environment changed. The following is about Carl Linnaeus.
T: Now, read the instructions about the listening and choose which of the following statements mist closely describes what this listening passage is about. Explain why the others are wrong.
S: I think the third one is right. This is about a man who finds a flower and wants to know if it is a new species of flower. Because he is interested in biology and especially in the study of plants. What he wants to do is to study whether it is a new species. The other two statements can not convey the study.
Task 2 Listening
T: What you said is reasonable. Let’s listen together to find whether your answer is right.
(After listening, let them check the answers. )
T: Listen to the tape again and try to complete the following passage.
To find the name of an unknown flower, first you have to go to see a flower __________he/she will look in a special __________written by Carl Linnaeus. He lived in__________ from__________ to __________. He was very important because he solved a serious problem for __________. He saw all plants and animals produce __________. Some animals produce __________but others lay __________while plants__________. He used these different ways of producing young to put plants and animals into__________. For example, the group called birds lay __________to produce young and they all have __________. Linnaeus put the plants and animals into smaller groups or species. He gave each one two names. One is for the large group, for example __________and one is for the species, for example __________. So a parrot would be __________. He was the first person to successfully classify all plants and animals.
Task 3 Post-listening
Let the students fill in the blankets and then check. If the students feel it difficult to do it, let them listen it a third time. After checking the answers, ask the students to read it together.
Step 5 Listening (Page 44)
T: Look at the screen and let’s read the following new words firstly.
(These words are presented on the screen: analyse, pure, foundation, symbol, sin, cosin, geometry, calculus, mechanics, practical, topology)
T: Can you guess which field the next scientist is in according to the new words?
S: The next must be a mathematician.
T: Right. This mathematician is Leonhard Euler. John Smith is discussing with Zhao Yang his research into the life and work of a mathematician called Leonhard Euler. Listen to the tape and fill in the chart on the importance of Euler’s work.
Step 6 Speaking(After listening, ask some students to fill in it. If many students feel it difficult, let them listen to it again. While doing it, the teacher can also ask two students to come to write the answers on the blackboard. The teacher had better give them praise if they do it well. )
Task 1 Lead-in
T: Boys and girls, from the listening material, we know about some scientists. Do you have a dream to be a scientist in the future?
Ss: Yes. /No.
T: Suppose you would like to work as a scientist, and you are discussing with your partner about your future job. What questions would you like to concern?
S1: What job do you want to do?
S2: How will you get the job?
S3: What preparations will you make for the future job?
T: Right. Apart from those, we can also talk about the following questions:
1 What education will you need?
2 What personality will be needed?
3 What work experience would be useful?
4 How long will the training take?
5 How will you prepare for this career?
T: These expressions may help you:
I always wanted to. . . because. . . The experience I will need is. . .
I might find it difficult to. . . I need to practise. . .
My greatest problem will be to. . .
I will need to be/become. . .
patient, creative, hard-working, co-operative, confident, brave, positive, pleasant, polite, determined, energetic, strict with. . .
Task 2 Dialogue (pair work)
T: Now it is time to discuss what scientific job each of you would like to choose in the future with the help of the mentioned questions and expressions in pairs. I will give you five minutes to prepare for it. After that I will let some of pairs to come to act it out.
Sample:
A: What job do you want to do in the future?
B: I always want to be a botanist.
A: If you want to be a scientist, what education will you need?
B: I will try my best to go to a key university to learn and study botany.
A: What work experience would be useful?
B: The experience I will need is to study wild plants in the wild when I am at school. Now, I join the social natural club organized by our school. Every time I make every effort to overcome difficulty to study plants in the wild.
A: Do you know what personality will be needed if you want to be a scientist in the future?
B: I will need to be patient, creative, hard-working, brave, energetic and co-operative.
A: Yes, I agree with you. Besides those personalities, we also should be determined, confident and positive.
B: I will make efforts to own such good quality.
A: How will you prepare for this career?
B: I intend to go to college next year and then I will have a chance to be a scientist. But my greatest problem will be whether I will be able to go to university in the future.
A: Don’t worry about it and just get down to preparing for it. Good chances always belong to the persons who have already prepared for them. I am sure you will succeed if you keep working hard. I am waiting for your good news.
B: Thank you for your encouragement. I will make full use of time to struggle for success.
Task 3 Free-talk
T: Let us talk freely. You are allowed to move about to find a student you’d like to talk with. Imagine you are going to meet a specialist about a newly-found flower. Your partner will be the assistant for the flower specialist. You both need a description of the other so you can recognize each other when you meet. Now ring the assistant to sort out the necessary information.
(Of course, following the above, the students may gather around or move around to find their own favorite partners to talk with. This is a half-controlled activity. Teachers let them express whatever they want to on condition that there are some expressions on the theme. Give them about five minutes to prepare for it. Later, ask some pairs to act it out. As usual, the teacher won’t forget to give comments on what the students do, including the teacher’s words praising what they are doing in the first few stages. Only in this way are the students encouraged to talk freely about what they want to say and why they think so. )
Step 7 Summary and Homework
T: In this period, we mainly focus on the speaking and listening abilities. If you feel listening or speaking poor, you had better practice more after class. Practice makes perfect. Today’s homework is to describe a scientist to your partner and let your partner guess who she/he is. Then exchange.

Albert Einstein had a great effect on science and history，and his achievement was even greater than what only a few other great scientists have achieved.An American university president once said that Einstein had made a new outlook，a new view of the universe.It may be some time before the average mind understands fully the identity(识别)of time and space and so on－but even ordinary men now understand that the universe is something larger than ever thought before.
By 1914 young Einstein had been worldfamous.He accepted the offer to become a professor at the Prussian Academy of Science in Berlin.He had few duties，little teaching and unlimited chances for study，but soon his peace and quietness were broken by World War Ⅰ.
Einstein hated fighting and killing.The great suffering of war affected him deeply，and he sat unhappily in his office doing little.He lost interest in his research.Only when peace came in 1918 was he able to get back to work.
In the year following World War Ⅰ honors were increasingly put on him.He became head of the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute of Theoretical Physics.But he himself refused the effort to put him in a position far above other people.He was well known for his humble(谦逊的)manner.He often said that his success would certainly have been achieved by others if he had never lived.
In 1921 he won the Nobel Prize，and he was honored in Germany until the rise of Nazism(纳粹)when he was driven from Germany because he was a Jew.

Leo Baekeland never gave up his dream of creating a special kind of plastic that would keep its form after it cooled.His invention was Bakelite，an inexpensive，widely used plastic.
Leo was born in Belgium into a lower，middleclass family.He studied at the University of Ghent in 1882 and eventually graduated with a doctorate in natural science at the age of 21.He taught there for several years before he travelled on a scholarship to the United States.Once in New York，Leo met Richard Anthony.Anthony saw potential in young Leo and offered him a job of working in
After failing to see success in his own business operations，Leo decided to return to what he knew and he started producing a kind of photographic paper that would allow good pictures to be taken in artificial light.He did so well in the beginning that he started a company called Nepera Chemical Company while creating a special kind of paper called Velox.Within two years，Kodak Company bought the right to Leo's discovery for $1，000，000.Leo accepted and used the money to set up his own laboratory in his backyard in New York and lived a comfortable life.
Leo's next project was to come up with a hard yet moldable(可模压的)plastic.After much experimentation，Leo finally came up with a plastic and called it Bakelite.Its special feature was that at a high temperature and pressure，Bakelite can hold its form，even under great heat.Leo made his achievement public in February，1909.The invention of Bakelite marked the beginning of the Age of Plastics.
Whether we are listening to the radio，driving down the road，or drinking from our plastic bottles，we can thank a man who had the foresight and courage to pursue what he thought was possible.

Six Ways to Improve Reading Comprehension
Help your child keep what he reads－a crucial skill，especially as he gets older and needs to gain important information from textbooks.
Have him read aloud.This forces him to go slower，which gives him more time to process what he reads.__1__
Provide the right kinds of books.Make sure your child gets lots of practice－reading books that aren't too hard.__2__Stopping any more often than that to figure out a word makes it tough for him to focus on the overall meaning of the story.
__3__To gain meaning from text，your child needs to read quickly and smoothly－a skill known as fluency.Rereading familiar，simple books gives your child practice at decoding(解读)words quickly so he'll become more fluent.
Talk to the teacher.If your child is struggling hard with comprehension，he may need more help with his reading－for example，building his vocabulary or practising phonic skills.
Supplement class reading.If his class is studying a particular theme，look for easytoread books or magazines on the topic.Some prior knowledge will make his way through tougher classroom texts.
Talk about what he's reading.This“verbal processing”helps him remember and think through the themes of the book.__4__For example：
●Before：“What interests you in this book？What doesn't？”
●During：“__5__Is it turning out the way you thought it would？”
●After：“Can you summarize the book？What did you like about it？”
A．What's going on in the book?
B．Ask questions before，during，and after a reading session.
C．Reread to build fluency.
D．He should recognize at least 90 percent of the words without any help.
E．Plus，he's not only seeing the words，he's hearing them，too.
F．Look up new words in the dictionary.
G．Do you know all the characters in the story?
