Ⅲ. 教材分析与教材重组 1. 教材分析 本单元的中心话题是“农业”, 学生通过讨论和阅读了解有关农业、农村和农作物种植的内容。让学生了解农业在整个人类生活中的重要性,了解农村生活,了解中国农民的生活现状,提高他们对农业的认识,并且帮助他们更深刻地理解农业科学家袁隆平的科学研究的价值。同时让学生了解organic farming 以及它对人们生活的重要性,进一步扩大学生的关于农业方面的词汇量,并通过写一则海报提高学生的写作水平。 1.1 WARMING UP 通过提问有关农业、农村和农作物种植的内容,让学生谈谈自己对农村和农业劳动的认识或经验。教师可通过讨论让学生互相学习,相互交流经验以增加他们的农业知识。 1.2 PRE-READING 部分有两组问题。在第一组问题中,讨论大米在东亚和东南亚国家人民生活中的重要性;而第二组问题则提出世界部分地区所面临的饥饿问题。由此激发学生对世界的关注,培养学生的同情心。 1.3 READING 部分介绍中国著名的农业科学家袁隆平的生平和他的杂交水稻。第一段描述了袁博士的外表——他更象一个农民而不象一个科学家,农村就是他做科研的殿堂。他的科研成果就是超级杂交水稻。 第二段描述他的家庭出身,学业,献身水稻科研的原因及所取得的成就。第三段告诉我们袁博士过着跟普通人一样的生活却干着伟大的事业。即使在功成名就之后,他也淡泊名利, 有着无私奉献的高尚精神。 1.4 COMPREHENDING 部分设计了三个练习。第一个是判断练习,学生根据课文中理解和收集的信息做出判断,甚至通过讨论才能做出判断。第二个是词语理解题。第三个练习提出问题,要求学生在阅读课文后作出回答,以检验他们的理解力和训练他们的归纳总结能力。 1.5 LEARNING ABOUT LANGUAGE 部分学习本单元重点词汇和语法项目。词语学习部分采用给出词义而让学生从课文中找出与之匹配的词,然后用所找的词汇完成第二个练习中的短文,以及用课文中意义相近的词汇替换练习三句中划线部分。通过这三种练习帮助学生理解并能熟练应用课文中所学的词汇。语法部分通过从课文中找同义句引出动词的-ing 形式,教师此时可引导学生找出其他的句子,以启发学生理解-ing形式的句法功能。练习二通过模仿例句,用-ing形式做主语代替动词不定式改写句子。练习三要求学生连接短语造句,让学生学习-ing形式作宾语的用法,并列举后面接动词-ing形式作宾语的动词。练习四则训练学生v-ing形式在实际生活中的应用能力。练习五则设计了一个游戏以丰富学生的想象力。 1.6 USING LANGUAGE 部分综合训练学生的听说读写能力。第一部分读写结合,学生先阅读文章,文章写的是 Organic Farming or green food,读完后要求学生写一个摘要。在此教师要首先强调写摘要时学生一定要抓住文章的主题并且运用所学的重要词语。听力部分通过回答问题来提高学生的理解能力和理解的正确性。Reading, speaking and writing 部分把读,说和写有机地结合在一起。假设你是一个“绿色食品” farmer,通过背景阅读,你要有充分的理由,利用所提供的句型,以对话的形式说服他人购买你的食品。最后为你的食品设计一个有说服力的广告。 1.7 SUMMING UP部分要求学生归纳总结本单元内容、词汇和语法结构三个方面。 1.8 LEARNING TIPS 部分对如何提高表达能力提出建议。 2. 课型设计与课时分配 1st period Reading 2nd period Language points 3rd period Learning about Language 4th period Grammar 5th period Using language 6th period Writing Ⅳ. 分课时教案 Reading Teaching goals 教学目标 1.

Ability goals 能力目标 Enable Ss to learn more about agriculture, countryside and farming. By talking they can exchange their experience with each other. By reading they will realize the role that agriculture plays in human life. In fact this world faces a serious problem —starvation. So after reading the passage about Dr Yuan students will know the importance of his achievement to man. Of course they will learn from Dr Yuan some noble character. 3. Learning ability goals 学能目标 Help Ss learn how to describe Dr Yuan Longping including his personality. Teaching important points 教学重点 a.

How to help students make up their minds to make contributions to motherland in the future like Dr Yuan. Teaching difficult points 教学难点 a. How to help students learn more about agriculture. b. Help students really master the usage of words and expressions. Teaching methods 教学方法 Talking, questioning-and-answering activity and reading. Teaching aids 教具准备 A tape recorder, a projector and a computer. Teaching procedures && ways 教学过程与方式 Step Ⅰ Greeting T: Hello, everyone. Ss: Hello, teacher. T: In last unit we learnt some great women. Today we’ll learn a famous man. Who will it be? At first let’s look at the two pictures on Page 9. What are the people doing? Ss: They are planting rice. T: Can you tell me something about rice? S: Rice grows in the south. S: But in some place of the north we can also find rice. T: Yeah. You are right. In fact rice is a cereal grain that has been grown for at least 5,000 years and is eaten by 2.4 billion people everyday throughout the world. In Australia, farmers have had to struggle with their harsh environment to grow rice. Ss: Really? Step Ⅱ Warming up T: Have you ever grown any plants? If so, what did you do to grow them? If not, what kind of plant would you like to grow? How will you grow it? S: I have ever grown corn and potatoes. In autumn, my father and I ploughed the soil deep for the first time, then in the next spring, we ploughed the soil for a second time, this time I put the corn seeds into the tunnel following my father. Finally my father covered the corn seeds by ploughing again. S: I never grow any plant. I’d like to plant sunflowers. They look beautiful. They always face the sun when they are young. I dig some holes in my garden, put some sunflower seeds in them, water them and finally cover them with some more soil. T: Very well. Have you ever been to the countryside? What did you do there? S5: Yes, I went there to see my grandfather. In the village I played with other boys in the little stream and caught little fish. I even helped my grandfather get in the corn by cutting the corn stems, which made me tired. T: Are you from a farmer’s family? What do you know about farming? S: Yes, my father is a farmer. In my view, farming is hard work. People have to plant crops, smooth away weeds and get in the crops at the right time. They have to get up early to work in the field so as to protect themselves from the sunshine. T: That’s right. In the north, the biggest worry that farmers have is the drought. When it doesn’t rain, and they can’t irrigate the crops, the crops will die and they will have nothing after hard working. Step Ⅲ Pre-reading Let students know the importance of rice. By answering the two questions, students can easily understand why we call Dr Yuan Longping a pioneer for all people, and why he devotes all his life to the rice research. 1. What is the main food in all East Asian and Southeast Asian countries? Rice. It is said that there are 2.4 billion people to eat rice every day throughout the world. 2. What do you think would happen if tomorrow there was suddenly no rice to eat? • suffer from starvation and starve to death • feel scared / be panic • fight for food, even kill each other • and the whole country would get into trouble. If you had the chance to do something to help end hunger in the world, what would you do? Step Ⅳ Fast Reading The reading material is about an agricultural pioneer named Yuan Longping who worked hard at a new strain of rice. It has proved so successful that his technology spread into other countries. The purpose of fast reading is to let students find some useful information, and get familiar with the text. So in this step, teacher can design some questions for students, so that they can easily find the answers and finish the reading task. He is father of hybrid rice (杂交水稻), who was lately awarded “the Nobel Prize of Asia”. He received the honor for his great contributions (贡献) to hybrid rice research and work he did to improve rice production in developing countries. Now he is head of the National Hybrid Rice Research and Development Center in Hunan Province, China (中国湖南省国家杂交水稻研究与发展中心). He is called a pioneer for all people. Step Ⅴ Skimming The text is about a(n) 1. ___________ _______ named Yuan Longping who made a great contribution to finding ways to 2. ______________. Match the following headings with the right paragraphs. Para 1 A. Dr Yuan’s dreams. Para 2 B. Dr Yuan’s personality. Para 3 C. Dr Yuan’s biography. Para 4 D. Dr Yuan’s appearance and his achievement. Keys: Para 1: D Para 2: C Para 3: B Para 4: A Step Ⅵ Careful reading 1. Read the text carefully and fill in the blanks. Yuan Longping Appearance u _________ face and arms slim and strong body ______________ u developed super hybrid rice u became the first ______________ in the world to grow high output rice u helps the UN reduce _______ in the world Experiences u born in 1930 and _________ from Southwest Agricultural College in 1953 u finding ways to grow more rice has been his life _____ u to _________ his knowledge in less developed countries such as India and Vietnam Personalities u is satisfied with his life u doesn’t care about being famous u gives a large amount of money to help others to do their ________ in agriculture u has many dreams and never gives up u loves and ________ his people _________ u to produce a kind of rice that could _____ more people u to _______ his rice so that it can be grown around the globe Keys: sunburnt, Achievements, agricultural pioneer, hunger, graduated, goal, circulate, research, care for, Dreams, feed, export 2. True (T) or False (F): 1) Yuan Longping became the first agricultural pioneer in the world to grow super hybrid rice at the age of 40. 2) More than 60% of the rice in the world is from the hybrid strain. 3) According to the text, farmers in China are producing rice harvests nearly 4 times as large as that in 1950. Keys: F, F, T 3. Choose the best answers. 1) What does the word “battle” refer to in the second paragraph? A. The low rice output. B. Ridding the world of hunger. C. Fighting against farming. D. The freedom to do research. 2) From the passage, we can know ______. A. Yuan Longping is not a pioneer but a scientist in the research of the hybrid rice B. Yuan’s parents are both agricultural scientists C. more than 60% of the rice produced in the world is from the hybrid strain D. using the hybrid rice, farmers are producing harvests twice as large as before 3) It can be inferred from the text that ______. A. Yuan knew the importance of rice import B. Yuan is interested in playing the violin C. Yuan is proud of his achievements D. Yuan’s rice are grown in many countries Keys: C, D, D 4. Discussion Even if Dr. Yuan’s dreams come true, can this really solve starvation? Step Ⅶ Post reading Answer these questions based on your understanding of the passage. 1. Why did Yuan Longping want to increase the rice output when he was young? 2. Is Dr Yuan more of a scientist or more of a farmer? Do you think he is a businessman? 3. How would you describe Dr Yuan’s personality? Use three or four adjectives. 4. What do you think is the main reason for his success? 5. Dr Yuan thinks that a person with too much money has more rather than fewer troubles. Do you agree or disagree? Why? 6. Dr Yuan developed super hybrid rice to help Chinese farmers and hungry people around the world. Can you think of any other major development that would make a great difference to world hunger? Keys: 1. Dr Yuan wanted to increase the rice output because he saw many people go hungry when he was young. 2. I think he is more of a scientist. His main purpose is not to make a profit for himself but to study agriculture and use that knowledge to improve farming for farmers everywhere. I do not think he is a businessman, because his goal is not to make money. 3. Because of his work with developing hybrid rice, it seems that Yuan Longping must be a very patient and careful man. He didn’t give up but kept working on his project. He also seems to be a very kind man, who cares for others. He wants to use his invention to help hungry people around the world. 4. I think Yuan Longping was successful because he kept working and did not give up. He was also very motivated to succeed and help other farmers around China. 5. I mostly agree. I think being rich can cause a lot of problems, but it really depends on the life and attitude of the person who is rich. People who are rich certainly have different problems from people who are not. 6. I think developing other hybrid grains would make a great difference in the problem of world hunger. Hybrid grains that can survive in very dry or very hot areas would be very useful in Africa and other areas. Hybrid grains that cannot easily be killed by insects and diseases would be useful around the world. Step Ⅷ Discussion 1. Choose one of these questions and discuss in groups. 1) What advantages do you see in Yuan Longping’s life? 2) What disadvantages do you see in Yuan Longping’s life? 2. Discuss in groups. Would you like to have a life like his? Why or why not? Step Ⅸ Homework 1. Writing a poster (海报) for the text. 2. Finish the exercises 1and 2 on page 11. Language points Teaching goals 教学目标 1.

Teaching procedures & ways 教学过程与方式 StepⅠ动词ing形式作主语和宾语 一、动词-ing形式作主语 1. 动词-ing形式作主语,表示一般或抽象的习惯性行为,谓语动词用单数。如: Reading aloud is very important for us to learn a foreign language. Going to bed early and getting up early is considered to be a good habit. 2. 在一些句子中,常用it作形式主语放在句首,而把真正的主语放到句末。 如: It is very important remembering others’ names. It is no use crying over spilt milk. 二、动词-ing形式作宾语 1. 有些动词后只能跟动词-ing形式作宾语,而不能跟动词不定式作宾语。有此用法的动词有:allow, advise, admit, appreciate, avoid, bear, consider, delay, deny, enjoy, escape, finish, forbid, imagine, keep, mind, mention, permit, practice, quit, risk, suggest等。如: My mother advised asking a doctor to come and examine my eyes. We’re considering paying a visit to the Science Museum. 2. 有些动词后既可跟动词-ing形式作宾语, 也可跟动词不定式作宾语, 但用法和意义都有所不同。这些动词是:remember, forget, stop, regret, try, mean等。如: I remember meeting her at a party once. I want to try playing soccer this spring. 3. 动词-ing形式用在动词need, want, require等后表示“需要”时, 用动词-ing形式的主动形式或者用不定式的被动式表示被动意义。如: The carpet really wants cleaning. = The carpet really wants to be cleaned. 4. 动词-ing形式作介词的宾语。要特别注意: be / get used to, look forward to, pay attention to, stick to, devote to等中的to都是介词而不是动词不定式符号。如: My father is used to going to bed late and getting up very early. I’m looking forward to receiving your reply. Step II Exercise 用括号内动词的正确形式完成下面的短文。 1. ________ (find) a job in the United States takes specific skills.

Your resume should be one page, if possible. ★ Find out about available jobs. One way is by _______ (look) in the newspaper or on the Internet. Another way is by networking. Networking means _________ (exchange) information with anyone you know — family, friends, neighbors, classmates, former co-workers, professional groups — who might know of a job. These people might also be able to give you insider information about a company, such as who is in charge and what it is like to work at their company. ★ Practice the interview. The more prepared you are, the more relaxed you will feel. If you are worried about ______ (say) or _______ (do) the wrong thing, practice will help. ★ Learn something about the company. Finding information takes time, but it pays off. You can get help in these skills — writing a resume, networking, preparing for an interview, researching a company — by_______ (see) a career counselor (顾问). Most high schools and colleges have one who can help you get started. Finding a job is one of the most difficult jobs. Some people send out hundreds of resumes and go to dozens of interviews before finding a job. And it isn’t something you do just once or twice in your lifetime. For most Americans, ________ (change) jobs many times in a lifetime is not uncommon. Step Ⅳ Practice 1. Rewrite the following sentences using the –ing form as the subject. Example: It is necessary to get water from wet to dry places. —Getting water from wet to dry places is necessary. 1. It is nice to help people in need of help. 2.

Growing super hybrid rice is not easy. Learning more about farming is not difficult. Doing research in the countryside is not as easy as in the city. Getting rid of hunger is very important for some African countries. Explaining this again is important or we will confuse the students. 2. Which verbs are followed by–ing? Which by the infinitive?
