Listening and Speaking introduces the topic of “talking about how to become an astronaut”. This period is aimed to inform students some details about the requirements of being an astronaut. Students can be motivated and inspired by the astronauts. Teachers ought to encourage students to learn from them and let them aim high and dream big.Listening and Talking introduces the theme of "talk about life in space". This part also informs students more details about life in space and can inspire students to be curious about this job. 1. Guide students to listen for numbers concerning dates, years and ages etc2. Cultivate students' ability to talk about how to become an astronaut and life in space ; 3. Instruct students to use functional sentences of the dialogue such as “ first of all, I am not sure, so what might be .. I guess.. I wonder…I am curious…)appropriately.1. Guide students to understand the content of listening texts in terms of the whole and key details; 2. Cultivate students' ability to guess the meaning of words in listening; discuss with their peers how to become a qualified astronaut and describe the life in space.Part 1: Listening and SpeakingStep 1: Lead inPredictionThe teacher can ask students to predict what the listening text is about by looking at the pictures.About how to become an astronaut./the requirements of an astronautStep 2: Then, play the radio which is about an interview a. And after finishing listening for the first time, the students need to solve the following tasks.

The theme of the section is “Describe space facts and efforts to explore space”. Infinitives are one of non-finite verbs, as the subjects, objects, predicative, attributes and adverbials. This unit is about space exploration, which is a significant scientific activity, so every scientific activity has strong planning. Therefore, using the infinitives to show its purpose, explanations or restrictions is the best choice.1. Learn the structure, functions and features of infinitives.2. Learn to summarize some rules about infinitives to show purpose and modify.3. Learn to use infinitives in oral and writing English. 1. Learn the structure, functions and features of infinitives.2. Learn to summarize some rules about infinitives to show purpose and modify.3. Learn to use use infinitives in oral and writing English.Step 1 Lead in---Pair workLook at the following sentences and focus on the italicized infinitives. In pairs, discuss their functions. 1. I trained for a long time to fly airplanes as a fighter pilot..(作目的状语)2. As we all know, an astronaut needs to be healthy and calm in order to work in space..(作目的状语)3. First of all, you must be intelligent enough to get a related college degree..(作目的状语)4. Some scientist were determined to help humans realise their dream to explore space..(作定语)5. On 12 April 1961, Yuri Gagarin became the first person in the world to go into space..(作定语)Summary:1. 不定式的结构:to+do原形。2. 分析上面的句子,我们知道在描述太空探索时,动词不定式不仅可以用来表目的,还可以用来作定语,表修饰。

The themes of this part are “Talk about how to become an astronaut” and “Talk about life in space”. As Neil Armstrong said “Mystery creates wonder and wonder is the basis of man’s desire to understand. Space is difficult for human to reach, therefore, humans are full of wonders about it. However, if wanting to achieve the dream of reaching the Moon, some of our human should work hard to be an astronaut at first. Part A(Talk about how to become an astronaut) is a radio interview in a radio studio, where the host asked the Chinese astronauts about his story how to become an astronaut. Yang Liwei told his dreamed to be an astronaut since childhood. Then he worked hard to get into college at 22. The next 10 years, he gradually became an experienced pilot. At the same time, to be an astronaut, he had to study hard English, science and astronomy and trained hard to keep in good physical and mental health and to practise using space equipment. Part B (Talk about life in space) is also an interview with the astronaut Brown, who is back on the earth. The host Max asked about his space life, such as his emotion about going back the earth, the eating, shower, brushing, hobbies and his work. Part A and Part B are interviews. So expressing curiosity about the guests’ past life is a communicative skill, which students should be guided to learn.1. Students can get detailed information about how Yang Liwei became an astronaut and Max’s space life.2. Students learn to proper listening strategy to get detailed information---listening for numbers and taking notes.3. Students can learn related sentences or phrases to express their curiosity like “ I wish to know...” “I’d love to know...”4. Students can learn more about the space and astronauts, even be interested in working hard to be an astronaut

The theme of this unit focuses on “space exploration.” Students will learn about the training and experience needed to become an astronaut. The text is mainly about the development of space exploration. On the one hand, the text helps students to have a good understanding about the great feats humans have achieved, on the other hand, they will further understand the contributions that we Chinese have achieved, and feel confident and proud about our homeland and strengthen their love for our country. The teacher should instruct students to aim high and study harder to make great progress in the space career if possible.1. Read about the development and value of space exploration.2. Explore the mysteries of the universe and the achievements in space exploration.3. Skillfully use the vocabulary of this text to cultivate self-study ability 4. Develop cooperative learning ability through discussion.1. Enable the Ss to talk about the development and value of space exploration.2. Guide the Ss to summarize the main idea of each paragraph as well as the main idea of the text.3. Help Ss comprehend the main reasons for space exploration. Multi-media, textbook, notebooks.Step 1: Warming up and predictionLook at the title and the pictures of the text and predict what the text will be about?2. What are the main reasons for space exploration?

⑦在我看来, 探索太空是值得的。As far as I am concerned, it is worthwhile to explore the space.Step 10 Writing---draftRecently, students in our class have had heated a discussion on whether space is worth exploring. Students hold different ideas about it.30% of us think space exploration is not worthwhile. They think space is too far away from us and our daily life and is a waste of money. And the money spent on space exploration can be used to solve the earth’s problems such as starvation and pollution.On the other hand,70% think space is worth exploring because we have benefited a lot from it,such as using satellites for communication and weather forecast. What’s more,with further space research,we may solve the population problem by moving to other planets one day. Also,space research will enable us to find new sources to solve the problem of energy shortages on the earth.As far as I am concerned, it is worthwhile to explore the space. Not only can it promote the development of society but also enrich our life. Step 11 Pair workExchange drafts with a partner.

Everybody wants to get wealth.In today’s material world,making money or becoming wealthy symbolizes a person’s success and capability. Many people just make every effort, pay any price to attain greater wealth. With money,they can buy nice, large apartments in nice neighborhood. With money they can own luxurious cars. Wealth seems to bring all happiness in life.But is wealth the only road to happiness? Not really. There are many things in the world, which are beyond the means of money, such as friendship, love, health and knowledge. People are so preoccupied with struggling for money that they have no time or would not take the time to form or maintain friendship. What happiness can they feel living as lonely miserable creatures without love or friends in the world even if they accumulate tremendous wealth?In my opinion, people can’t do anything without money, but money is not everything. What money will bring you depends on your personal belief and goal in life. If you are kind enough to help others, especially the poor, money is a good thing to you. With it, you can do much more for the benefit of people and your country, and it will add to your own happiness. If you want money just for your own needs, you’ll never be satisfied or happy. In a word,you should have money spent for more people. Only then can money be the source of your happiness.Step 8 Homework4 students in a group, one acts Roderick, one Oliver, one servant and the fourth one acts Henry Adams, then listen to the tape, pay more attention to the difference between American English and British English in pronunciation, stress, tone.

4.They were going to find someone to take part in their bet when they saw Henry walking on the street outside.[归纳]1.过去将来时的基本构成和用法过去将来时由“would+动词原形”构成,主要表示从过去某一时间来看将要发生的动作(尤其用于宾语从句中),还可以表示过去的动作习惯或倾向。Jeff knew he would be tired the next day.He promised that he would not open the letter until 2 o'clock.She said that she wouldn't do that again.2.表示过去将来时的其他表达法(1)was/were going to+动词原形:该结构有两个主要用法,一是表示过去的打算,二是表示在过去看来有迹象表明将要发生某事。I thought it was going to rain.(2)was/were to+动词原形:主要表示过去按计划或安排要做的事情。She said she was to get married next month.(3)was/were about to+动词原形:表示在过去看来即将要发生的动作,由于本身已含有“即将”的意味,所以不再与表示具体的将来时间状语连用。I was about to go to bed when the phone rang.(4)was/were+现在分词:表示在过去看来即将发生的动作,通常可用于该结构中的动词是come,go,leave,arrive,begin,start,stop,close,open,die,join,borrow,buy等瞬间动词。Jack said he was leaving tomorrow.

生:环境承载力是指环境能持续供养的人口数量。师:对了。但是有同学仍然会感到这是一个很抽象的概念。下面我们具体来了解什么是环境承载力。我们可以从两个部分去理解:一、环境,它主要是指环境的单个要素(如:土地、水、气候、植被等。)及其组合方式。二、是承载力,它指在特定的条件下,具体某事物能承受的某种活动的最大值。那环境承载力的科学定义是怎样表达的呢?生:环境承载力是指某一时期,某种状态条件下,某地区环境所能承受的人类活动作用的阈值。师:很对。 我们可以用一个生动的例子来说明。一只木桶里面的水的多少在底面积固定不变的情况下是由哪块木板来决定?生:最短的那块。师:确实如此。这就是我们平常所讲的 “木桶效应”。那影响环境承载力的大小也是由环境个要素里面最紧缺的那个要素来决定的。下面我们用一个例子来印证一下。

2.辩证的否定(1)辩证的否定是事物的自我否定。事物内部存在着肯定方面和否定方面,它们既对立又统一。最初,肯定方面处于支配地位,否定方面处于被支配地位。在这种情况下,事物就被肯定着。但是,在矛盾双方的斗争中,否定方面总会由弱变强。一旦否定方面由被支配地位上升为支配地位,事物就转化到了自己的对立面,实现了对事物的否定。事物最终之所以被否定,根源在于事物的内部,是事物内部的否定因素战胜了肯定因素。因此,事物的否定是自我否定。(2)辩证的否定是事物发展的环节和联系的环节。所谓发展,是指新事物的产生和旧事物的灭亡。而实现这一过程必须要对旧事物进行否定,否定实现了事物由旧质向新质的飞跃。新事物在否定旧事物时,并不是把旧事物全盘抛弃,一笔勾销。旧事物是新事物的母体,新事物从旧事物那里脱胎而来,新事物是在批判地继承旧事物中的一切积极的有生命力的因素的基础上发展起来的。这样,在新旧事物之间就存在着必然的联系。

在数学上,0这个数是解决记数和进位问题而引进的概念,由于它不能表示实在的东西,很长时间人们不把它看作是一个数。认为0是无,是对有的否定。从唯物辩证法的观点看,这种否定不是形而上学的简单否定,而是具有丰富内容的辨证否定。辨证的否定是发展的环节。0是从无到有的必经之路,是连接无和有的桥梁。0又是正数和负数之间的界限,它既否定了任何正数,也否定了任何负数,是唯一的中性数。但它又是联结正数和负数的中间环节。没有0,负数就过渡不到正数去,正数也休想发展到负数来。数学中的0是对任何定量的否定。如果没有这一否定,任何量的发展都无从谈起。这个否定不是一笔勾销,而是扬弃。因为它克服了任何定量的有限性,成为其发展的环节。在现实生活中,0作为辨证的否定,也体现出联系和发展的性质。如0度不是没有温度,而是非常确定的温度。

[补充]:郑州是特大城市,我们对灯火通明的夜晚都有深刻的体会,我们都体会过光给他们带来的好处,而对过多过亮的光带来的危害则很少认真地思考过,且光污染给都市人们和其他生物和环境带来的不利影响也越来越大,所以,我在这儿给同学们补充光污染,目的是提醒他们要增强环保意识,要理解城市在建设过程中要减少城市各类活动对环境的污染;另外,随着城市的不断发展,还可能会产生新 的污染物。还培养了学生用发展的眼光来看世界。[思考]:如何降低城市化对地理环境产生的影响?[答]:发展生态城市,使人工环境和自然环境和谐统一起来。一方面在城市建设中,要发展低污染的节能建筑和绿色交通,减少城市各类活动对环境的污染;另一方面使城市景观尽可能地与山、河、湖、海、植被等自然景观保持协调,建立一种良性循环。

(二)进行新课1、动能与势能的相互转化演示实验1:如右图,用细线、小球、带有标尺的铁架台等做实验。把一个小球用细线悬挂起来,把小球拉到一定高度的A点,然后放开,小球在摆动过程中,重力势能和动能相互转化。我们看到,小球可以摆到跟A点等高的C点,如图甲。如果用尺子在某一点挡住细线,小球虽然不能摆到C点,但摆到另一侧时,也能达到跟A点相同的高度,如图乙。问题:这个小实验中,小球的受力情况如何?各个力的做功情况如何?这个小实验说明了什么?学生观察演示实验,思考问题,选出代表发表见解。小球在摆动过程中受重力和绳的拉力作用。拉力和速度方向总垂直,对小球不做功;只有重力对小球能做功。实验证明,小球在摆动过程中重力势能和动能在不断转化。在摆动过程中,小球总能回到原来的高度。可见,重力势能和动能的总和保持不变。即机械能保持不变。
