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 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.

气候变化对健康的影响 气候变化对人体健康的不良影响是不难发现的:热浪冲击频繁加重可致死亡率及某些疾病、特别是心脏呼吸系统疾病发病率增加;对气候变化敏感的传染性疾病如疟疾和登革热的传播范围可能增加。极端气候事件, 如干旱、水灾、暴风雨等, 使死亡率、伤残率及传染病疾病率上升, 并增加社会心理压力。某些媒介疾病的加重也可能与气候变化有间接的关系, 如疟疾是通过蚊子传播的疾病,气候变化可能使某些变暖地区的蚊子数目增加, 从而加重了疟疾的发生。我国1994年疟疾的发病率为5.3408/10万, 居全国法定传染病的第六位。血吸虫病的发展与高温及灌溉系统的扩增有关。我国1994年南方12省市血吸虫病患者的检出率高达3.67%,不能忽视气候变化对此的可能影响。还有一些疾病,如睡眠病、登革热、黑热病等也有与气候关系的报道。另外, CO2、一些空气污染物如氮氧化物、臭氧等可增加过敏疾患及心脏呼吸系统疾病和死亡。
浅层地下水是贮存于地表松散堆积物中的潜水。主要受降水、气温、蒸发等气象因素影响,有明显的季节变化与日变化,并与河水有相应补给关系,即河水高于潜水面时,河水补给地下水,反之地下水补给河流;深层地下水是长时间内渗入地下深入储存起来的,它缓慢地流出补给河流,受气象因素影响很小,通常只有年变化,季节变化已不明显。当然,一条河流的河水补给来源往往不是单一的,而是以某一种形式为主的混合补给形式,对流域自然条件复杂的大的河流来说尤其如此。我国长江上游地区除雨水、地下水外,高原高山上冰川、积雪在夏季融化也补给河流;东北地区的河流,由春季融化积雪补给,夏季则由雨水和地下水补给;西北内陆盆地除雨水外,夏季高山冰川、积雪融化成为河流的主要补给形式。我国季风地区,大部分河流以雨水补给为主,而冬季则由地下水补给。

1.流水堆积地貌由于河床坡度降低,导致流速减小 ,或者其他原因,引起河流搬运能力降低,促使沉积发生,形成堆积地貌。常见的河流堆积地貌主要有以下几种:(1)冲积扇平原冲积扇是河流出山口处的扇形堆积体。河流出 山口后,比降显著减小,水流又分成许多交汉,成扇状向外流动,河流能量显著降低,大量物质堆积下来,又有利于河流改道。随着各支汊的不断堆积和变迁,就形成冲积扇。冲积扇的物质结构,一般是顶部物质较粗,主要为沙、砾 ,随着水流搬运能力向边缘减弱,堆积的物质逐渐变细,边缘一般多为沙、粉沙及亚粘土,分选性较好,所以冲积扇是较好的含水层,边缘常有泉水出 露,可发展自流灌 溉。若山地河谷随山地间歇抬升,也可形成叠置冲积扇。(2)河漫滩平原河漫滩平原发源于河流中下游。在河流中下游地区,河流下蚀作用减弱,侧蚀作用加强,河流往往凹岸侵蚀,在凸岸堆积形成水下堆积体。堆积体 的面积逐渐扩大,在枯水季节露出水面,形成河漫滩(见下图)。
【补充说明】我们这节课简要地分析了陆地环境的三种地域分异规律。实际上,世界上的任何事物有其一般性,也有它的特 殊性。在地带性分异规律的基础上,陆地环境因为受到海陆分布、地形 起伏等因素的影响,也会出现一些不规律的现象,这种现象称为非地带性。例如,我们在初中地理中学过绿洲。还记得什么叫绿洲吗?再比如,在南美洲的西海岸(太平洋沿岸),有一条狭长的(热带)荒漠带,而缺少热带草原带,热带雨林带主要是分布在赤道以北地区。这主要是受大的地形起伏的影响。因为南美洲西部是一列高大的安第斯山脉,受其影响,两边的气候状况不同,所以就出现了分布规律不同的自然带,这也是一种非地带性现象。【总结】有规律分布的自然带构成了全球和谐的自然环境整体。自然带之间错综复杂的、微妙的要素关系,有许多是人类还没有认识到的。因此,人类不能随意去破坏任何哪怕是极微小的环节,也许它 带来的影响会是全球性的。保护全球环境,人人有责。
