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.

The grammatical structure of this unit is predicative clause. Like object clause and subject clause, predicative clause is one of Nominal Clauses. The leading words of predicative clauses are that, what, how, what, where, as if, because, etc.The design of teaching activities aims to guide students to perceive the structural features of predicative clauses and think about their ideographic functions. Beyond that, students should be guided to use this grammar in the context apporpriately and flexibly.1. Enable the Ss to master the usage of the predicative clauses in this unit.2. Enable the Ss to use the predicative patterns flexibly.3. Train the Ss to apply some skills by doing the relevant exercises.1.Guide students to perceive the structural features of predicative clauses and think about their ideographic functions.2.Strengthen students' ability of using predicative clauses in context, but also cultivate their ability of text analysis and logical reasoning competence.Step1: Underline all the examples in the reading passage, where noun clauses are used as the predicative. Then state their meaning and functions.1) One theory was that bad air caused the disease.2) Another theory was that cholera was caused by an infection from germs in food or water.3) The truth was that the water from the Broad Street had been infected by waste.Sum up the rules of grammar:1. 以上黑体部分在句中作表语。2. 句1、2、3中的that在从句中不作成分,只起连接作用。 Step2: Review the basic components of predicative clauses1.Definition

Step 7: complete the discourse according to the grammar rules.Cholera used to be one of the most 1.__________ (fear) diseases in the world. In the early 19th century, _2_________ an outbreak of cholera hit Europe, millions of people died. But neither its cause, 3__________ its cure was understood. A British doctor, John Snow, wanted to solve the problem and he knew that cholera would not be controlled _4_________ its cause was found. In general, there were two contradictory theories 5 __________ explained how cholera spread. The first suggested that bad air caused the disease. The second was that cholera was caused by an _6_________(infect) from germs in food or water. John Snow thought that the second theory was correct but he needed proof. So when another outbreak of cholera hit London in 1854, he began to investigate. Later, with all the evidence he _7_________ (gather), John Snow was able to announce that the pump water carried cholera germs. Therefore, he had the handle of the pump _8_________ (remove) so that it couldn't be used. Through his intervention,the disease was stopped in its tracks. What is more, John Snow found that some companies sold water from the River Thames that __9__________________ (pollute) by raw waste. The people who drank this water were much more likely _10_________ (get) cholera than those who drank pure or boiled water. Through John Snow's efforts, the _11_________ (threaten) of cholera around the world saw a substantial increase. Keys: 1.feared 2.when 3. nor 4.unless 5.that/which 6.infection 7.had gathered 8.removed 9.was polluted 10.to get 11. threat
Step 5: After learning the text, discuss with your peers about the following questions:1.John Snow believed Idea 2 was right. How did he finally prove it?2.

This happens because the dish soap molecules have a strong negative charge, and the milk molecules have a strong positive charge. Like magnets, these molecules are attracted to each other, and so they appear to move around on the plate, taking the food coloring with them, making it look like the colors are quickly moving to escape from the soap.Listening text:?

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.

The grammar of this unit is designed to review noun clauses. Sentences that use nouns in a sentence are called noun clauses. Nominal clauses can act as subject, object, predicate, appositive and other components in compound sentences. According to the above-mentioned different grammatical functions, nominal clauses are divided into subject clause, object clause, predicate clause and appositive clause. In this unit, we will review the three kinds of nominal clauses. Appositive clauses are not required to be mastered in the optional compulsory stage, so they are not involved.1. Guide the students to judge the compound sentences and determine the composition of the clauses in the sentence.2. Instruct students to try to learn grammar by generalizing grammar rules, controlling written practice, and semi-open oral output.3. Inspire the students to systematize the function and usage of noun clause1.Instruct students to try to learn grammar by generalizing grammar rules, controlling written practice, and semi-open oral output.2.Inspire the students to systematize the function and usage of noun clauseStep1: The teacher ask studetns to find out more nominal clauses from the reading passage and udnerline the nominal clauses.

重点:了解接龙游戏的规律,并能运用比较、对应的经验合作制作接龙卡。难点:1.孩子对前后卡片的界限区分。成因是接龙卡本身有两小部分所组成,容易会造成孩子辨别卡片上的混淆。2.操作中的前后推理。成因是由于幼儿的逆向思维发展尚不成熟,容易被附近一个已知数所误导。解决策略:1.逐步化解法:借助双色的卡片做教具,以层层递进的方式从顺向推理向逆向推理逐步过渡。2.资源共享法:以小组合作形式开展操作活动,能以兵兵互教的形式化解补缺的难点,达到资源共享。活动目标:1.了解接龙游戏的规律,并能运用比较、对应的经验合作制作接龙卡。 2.尝试用简洁语言介绍和交流自己的操作结果,能运用以往的数学经验表明意思。
【设计意图】学习事理说明文,要让学生在自主归纳的过程中,初步感知事理说明文说明“事理”这一基本特点,把握事理说明文和事物说明文的不同之处。引导学生通过学习课文,对科学方法产生自己的体会,并运用到自己的思考中。四、总结存储1.教师小结本文是一篇事理说明文,作者把一门科学——物候学介绍得浅显易懂,饶有趣味。全文采用逻辑顺序说明,思路清晰明了:描述物候现象——做出科学解释——追究因果关系——阐述研究意义。这种从现象到本质的认识方法和行文思路值得我们学习。本文语言严谨而生动,兼具说明的科学性和生动性,是一篇极有价值的科普文,是科学家竺可桢科学精神和科学思想的具体体现。文章启发我们:科学距离我们并不遥远,就在我们的身边,而想要探索它,就要有科学精神,扩大科学知识储备,掌握科学方法,勇于探索科学奥秘。
结束这节课,我心里很轻松,因为在以往的教学中学生感觉到:说明文很单调、枯燥不生动。而本节课学生与我配合得非常好,原因是我利用多媒体展示的几幅画面,把学生的注意力都集中在所讲的内容中,并且调动了学生学习的积极性,认为物候现象就在我们的身边,激发学生探索科学奥秘的兴趣,更多地去了解大自然,认识大自然,热爱大自然。在初读课文的时候,我训练了学生的概括能力;在分清举例说明的方法时,让学生明白什么是举例子的说明方法;在细读课文的时候,让学生学习生动地有条理地说明事物的方法,还重点品味第一段的生动语言,在品味说明文语言的准确性时,有日常生活中的例子导入,深入浅出地讲解了说明语言准确性的两点情况。
四、总结归纳,延伸拓展师:作者“观古今于须臾,抚四海于一瞬”,把时间的概念,从人们日常的感觉延伸到自然界中,引出了关于时间的又一种境界。请同学们根据你所知道的课内外知识,完成下面的拓展任务:拓展任务一岩石记录时间的重要方式是它保存了许多的历史痕迹。请阅读课文第22—29段并分组讨论,说说岩石保存了哪些历史痕迹,它对人类有着怎样的意义,你从中得到了哪些启示。 (生分小组探讨,批注,然后交流回答)预设 示例:①记录了地壳的活动;②记录了气候的变化;③记录了古代生物的状况;④记录了地球历史的发展过程;⑤记录了自然界某些转瞬即逝的活动。意义与启示:对岩石的研究,不仅使我们增长了知识,对自然界与史前历史有了更多的认识,还使我们拥有了开发史前资源的可能性,能为人类谋取幸福。我们要秉承这种辩证主义思想观念,发扬科学探索的精神,在人类前行的历史上,贡献出一份力量。
意境是什么?意境是艺术的灵魂。是客观事物精粹部分的集中,加上人的思想感情的陶铸,经过高度艺术加工达到情景交融、借景抒情,从而表现出来的艺术境界、诗的境界,就叫作意境。艺术从生活中来,但它不等同于生活。艺术与生活是辩证关系,生活是艺术唯一的源泉,艺术来源于生活,是现实生活的反映,但艺术中反映出来的生活,可以而且应当比实际的生活更高,更典型,更理想。就是说,艺术又要求对生活进行高度集中和概括,要求典型化、理想化,从而创造出比现实更美好、更富有诗意、更理想的艺术境界,创造出革命时代新的意境。这是革命的现实主义与革命的浪漫主义相结合的创作方法最基本的一条,也是其他的创作方法所不及、难以充分达到的。千余年来,中国山水画为什么那么发达,这与河山壮丽是分不开的。中国向来把江山、河山、山水作为祖国的象征或代词。
