Unit 4 Astronomy：the science of the stars 【美文阅读】关于大地起源的神话有许多许多，你了解多少呢？The sky and the earth were at first one blurred entity(混沌整体) like an egg. Then Pangu was born into it. The separation of the sky and the earth took eighteen thousand years. The yang which was light and pure rose to become the sky，and the yin which was heavy and murky(黑暗的)sank to form the earth. Between them was Pangu, who went through nine changes every day, his wisdom greater than that of the sky and his ability greater than that of the earth. Every day the sky rose ten feet higher, the earth became ten feet thicker, and Pangu grew ten feet taller. Another eighteen thousand years passed, and there was an extremely high sky, an extremely thick earth, and an extremelytall Pangu. After Pangu died, his head turned into the Five Sacred Mountains(Mount Tai, Mount Heng, Mount Hua, Mount Heng, Mount Song), his eyes turned into the moon and the sun, his blood changed into water in river and sea, his hair into grass. In all, the universe and Pangu combine in one.【诱思导学】1．Do you agree on the forming of the universe？Give your reasons.________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________2．What kind of people is Pangu in your eyes?________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________【答案】 1.No，I don't agree.Because the scientists have already found out how the universe formed.2．I think Pangu is very great and determined.He is a hero.Period ⅠPreviewing(教师用书独具)●教学目标本课时主要是通过学生对学案所给出的内容的学习，了解本课文中所出现的词汇，初步了解课文以及相关的背景知识，就下一堂课对课文的全面理解起到一个铺垫作用。

Leading- inGive Ss a few minutes to say something about science by asking the following questions.（1.）Who is the first man in space，do you know？（2.）Which spaceship did Yang Liwei take to space？（3.）Do you want to go to space if you are given a chance?Step 2. Warming UpPurpose: To introduce the topic of this unit to Ss in the form of asking questions and discussion.Ask some Ss the questions first and then get Ss to discuss with each other. If time permits, have one or two groups present their answers to the whole class. (1) How many subjects are we studying now?（2）Do you have some scientific studying methods to learn them well?(3) As you see, a large number of students want to become scientists in thefuture. But what kind of qualities and skills do we need to be realscientists?Step 3. Talking (Workbook)1. Divide Ss into six groups, and ask them to talk about the request of Talking on P62 and answer the following questions. Different students will give different answers.

Show Ss some beautiful pictures of the university and say, “Now look at the pictures. How beautiful the Universe is! It is also full of mysteries. Have you ever dreamed of flying to the space like Yang Liwei to unlock the mysteries of the universe? If you could, what things should you pay attention to?”3. Encourage Ss to give as much information as possible. After the discussion, write down some key words and important expressions on the blackboard to help Ss to have the sense of traveling in space .Conclusion:Before making a trip into space, we’d better make full preparations, such as : collecting as much information about the space as possible; checking whether you have got the proper spacesuits or not; making sure of all the safety rules; not leaving the spaceship alone unless the space guide tells you to; paying attention to recording some important time during the space traveling and so on.Step 3.
