Unit 5 Meeting your ancestors【美文阅读】北京猿人复原头盖骨(1960年发现的) 北京猿人塑像Peking Man was discovered in Zhoukoudian village ,on the Longgu Mountain ,Fangshan district ,Beijing ,which was listed as a world cultural heritage site in 1987.In the 1920s archaeologists discovered a complete skull of an ape ­man dating back 600,000 years which was later named as Peking Man.Stone tools and evidence of Peking Man's use of fire were later found on the mountain.Studies have shown that Peking Man walked on his feet and lived 690,000 years ago.His society lived in groups in caves and survived by hunting.The group could make use of rough stone tools and knew how to use fire for heating and cooking.The discovery included six complete skulls of Peking Man,12 skull fragments,15 mandibles(下颌骨),157 teeth and some sections of broken femurs(大腿骨),shinbones(胫骨),and upper arm bones belonging to more than 40 individuals of different ages and sexes.In addition 100,000 fragments of stone tools were found together with sites used for fire and burnt bones and stones.Peking Man created a unique Old Stone Culture which had much influence to the Old Stone Culture of North China.Stone tools arethe principal relics of this remote culture.Also discovered in Zhoukoudian are stone points,a new production tool then,and bone articles made and used by Peking Man.Found in the caves were such tools as the larger end of an antler(鹿角,茸角) that had been used as a hammer and the sharp end of an antler used as a digging tool.The use of fire was a milestone of the development of civilization and the discovery of Peking Man has pushed back the time that man first used it by tens of thousands of years.The largest ash pile discovered in the caves is six metres thick.Fire allowed people to eat cooked food instead of raw food and promoted the development of the brain and improved health.With his rough tools and simple living conditions,Peking Man created a unique and very ancient culture.【诱思导学】1.When was Peking Man Site at Zhoukoudian listed as a world cultural heritage?______________________________________________2.According to the studies,when did Peking Man live?______________________________________________3.What kind of tools did Peking Man use?______________________________________________【答案】 1.In 1987. 2.About 690,000 years ago.3.Stone tools.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,为下一堂课对课文的全面理解起到一个铺垫作用。

2019学年度人教版选修八Unit 5 Meeting yourancestorsPeriod1Reading教案设计(A VISIT TO THE ZHOUKOUDIAN CA VES)AimsTo help students develop their reading abilityTo help students learn about ancestors of theirsTo help students revise the verb tensesProceduresI. Warming up by talking about ancestorsAn ancestor is a parent or (recursively) the parent of anancestor. So this includes a father or mother, as well as grandparents, great-grandparents, and so on, although the correct female form of the word is "ancestrix", pl: "ancestrixes" or "ancestrices". Two individuals have a genetic relationship if one is the ancestor of the other or if they share a common ancestor; in a curious use of language in evolutionary theory, this is called common descent. (Strictly speaking this may not be true for some bacteria and similar organisms which are capable of direct horizontal gene transfer.)Some societies have had a form of ancestor worship; most modern societies seem to have focused this into genealogy.II. Pre-readingWhat is archaeology or archeology?Archaeology or archeology is the study of human cultures through the recovery, documentation and analysis of material remains and environmental data, including architecture, artifacts, biofacts, human remains, and landscapes.The goals of archaeology are to document and explain the origins and development of human culture, understand culture history, chronicle cultural evolution, and study human behaviour and ecology, for both prehistoric and historic societies.III. Reading for forms of languageRead the text to: cut/ the sentence into thought groups, blacken the predicates, darken the connectives and underline all the useful expressions.IV. Copying and making sentencesYou are asked to copy all the useful expressions into your notebook after class as homework. YouVI. Closing down by reading more about ZhoukoudianIn December 1929, a Chinese paleoanthropologist named Pei Wenzhong discovered a complete skull of "Peking Man" on Dragon Bone Hill northwest of Zhoukoudian, in the southwest suburbs of Beijing. Later, archaeologists unearthed 40-odd individually fossilized skeletons of "Peking Man", male, female, old and young, all at the same site. Zhoukoudian, therefore, became the most common site for human remains with the most abundant fossils in the world from the same period. The discovery pushed the history of Beijing's civilization back to some 600,000 years. These fossilized remains prove that "Peking Man" was primitive man in an evolutionary process from ancient ape to modern man, and is the ancestor of the Chinese nation.Inside the 140-meter-long Peking Man Cave, stratum accumulation was of a depth of 40 meters. The inhabitants spanning more than 300,000 years left their remains, stone tools and traces of fire here. On Dragon Bone Hill were also found fossilized remains of Upper Cave Man, who lived 18,000 years ago, as well as sites of New Cave Man, who lived between Peking Man and Upper Cave Man.。

________________________________________________________________________教学参考1.Terracotta WarriorsThe Terracotta Warriors Museum lies 1.5 km east to the Tomb of Qin First Emperor.The Terracotta Warriors lie underground for more than 2000 years.In 1974,farmers digging a well about 1500 meters east of the tomb uncovered one of the greatest archaeological sites in the world.The firstly discovered site of Terracotta Warriors was named Vault One.In 1976,the other two vaults were uncovered 20-25 meters close to the Vault One,and were named Vault Two and Vault Three respectively.Excavation of the underground vaults of earth and timber revealed thousands of life—Terracotta Warriors in battle formation—a whole army which would accompany its emperor into immortality.The excavation was a real big shock to the whole world—the vaults are so big,the figures are so vivid and the number of the figure is so incredible!Every figure differs from those around in facial features and expressions,clothing,hairstyle,gesture.The horsemen,the longbow bearers,the archers,the senior officers and generals were positioned in strict accordance with the ancient directives on the art of war.Many of the figures originally held real weapons of the time,such as bronze swords,longbows,arrowheads,spears,dagger-axes and other long-shaft weapons.Surface treatment of the weapons made them resistant to rust and corrosion so that after being buried for over 2000 years they were still sharp.The Terracotta Warriors supply abundant and real objects of military,culture and economy to the study of the history of that period.The excavation of the Terracotta Warriors was regarded as one of the greatest discovery in the 20th century.In Dec.1987,the UNESCO ranked the Tomb of the First Emperor(including the Terracotta Warriors Vaults)into the list of World Cultural Heritages.Standing in the exhibition hall,one would be shocked by such a grand ancient army formation,which will lead you back to the ancient warring situation.The tomb is a treasury for the Chinese people and for the whole world as well.(from /e/voy1/u1a4040912.html)2.Ancient Egyptian social statusEgyptian society was highly stratified,and social status was expressly displayed.Farmers made up the bulk of the population,but agricultural produce was owned directly by the state,temple,or noble family that owned the land.Farmers were also subject to a labor tax and were required to work on irrigation or construction projects in a corvée system.Artists and craftsmen were of higher status than farmers,but they were also under state control,working in the shops attached to the temples and paid directly from the state treasury.Scribes and officials formed the upper class in ancient Egypt,the so­called “white kilt class” in reference to the bleached linen garments that served as a mark of their rank.The upper class prominently displayed their social status in art and literature.Below the nobility were the priests,physicians,and engineers with specialized training in their field.Slavery was known in ancient Egypt,but the extent and prevalence of its practice are unclear.The ancient Egyptians viewed men and women,including people from all social classes except slaves,as essentially equal under the law,and even the lowliest peasant was entitled to petition the vizier and his court for redress.Both men and women had the right to own and sell property,make contracts,marry and divorce,receive inheritance,and pursue legal disputes in court.Married couples could own property jointly and protect themselves from divorce byagreeing to marriage contracts,which stipulated the financial obligations of the husband to his wife and children should the marriage pared with their counterparts in ancient Greece,Rome,and even more modern places around the world,ancient Egyptian women had a greater range of personal choices and opportunities for achievement.Women such as Hatshepsut and Cleopatra even became pharaohs,while others wielded power as Divine Wives of Amun.Despite these freedoms,ancient Egyptian women did not take part in official roles in the administration,served only secondary roles in the temples,and were not as likely to be as educated as men.(from /wiki/Ancient_Egypt)3.Ancient Egyptian burial customsThe ancient Egyptians maintained an elaborate set of burial customs that they believed were necessary to ensure immortality after death.These customs involved preserving the body by mummification,performing burial ceremonies,and interring,along with the body,goods to be used by the deceased in the afterlife.Before the Old Kingdom,bodies buried in desert pits were naturally preserved by desiccation.The arid,desert conditions continued to be a boon throughout the history of ancient Egypt for the burials of the poor,who could not afford the elaborate burial preparations available to the elite.Wealthier Egyptians began to bury their dead in stone tombs and,as a result,they made use of artificial mummification,which involved removing the internal organs,wrapping the body in linen,and burying it in a rectangular stone sarcophagus or wooden coffin.Beginning in the Fourth Dynasty,some parts were preserved separately in canopic jars.By the New Kingdom,the ancient Egyptians had perfected the art of mummification;the best technique took 70 days and involved removing the internal organs,removing the brain through the nose,and desiccating the body in a mixture of salts called natron.The body was then wrapped in linen with protective amulets inserted between layers and placed in a decorated anthropoid coffin.Mummies of the Late Period were also placed in painted cartonnage mummy cases.Actual preservation practices declined during the Ptolemaic and Roman eras,while greater emphasis was placed on the outer appearance of the mummy,which was decorated.Wealthy Egyptians were buried with larger quantities of luxury items,but all burials,regardless of social status,included goods for the deceased.Beginning in the New Kingdom,books of the dead were included in the grave,along with shabti statues that were believed to perform manual labor for them in the afterlife.Rituals in which the deceased was magically re-animated accompanied burials.After burial,living relatives were expected to occasionally bring food to the tomb and recite prayers on behalf of the deceased.(from /wiki/Ancient_Egypt)精美句子1、善思则能“从无字句处读书”。

Pre-reading,Reading and Comprehending整体设计教学内容分析This is the first teaching period of this unit.The central part of this period is a dialogue titledA Visit to the Zhoukoudian Caves.Warming Up presents four pictures of archaeological finds to arouse students' interest in learning about archaeology.Pre-reading provides a picture of a certain Peking Man's skull.By discussing today's daily equipment and predicting Peking Man's daily equipment,the teacher can lead students to think about the prehistory life and get prepared for the reading passage.Reading is a dialogue between a group of British students visiting Zhoukoudian caves and the archaeologist showing them around.Through the dialogue,students can get the insight into the lifestyle of the early people,increase the knowledge of archaeology,and experience the development of human civilization.Meanwhile,students' interest in archaeology and the desire to study early history can be stimulated.Comprehending consists of three kinds of exercises for the students so as to help the students to get a better understanding of the text,that is to say,to help the teacher check how much the students have understood the text.Exercise 1:read the passage and answer the questions;Exercise 2:let students find out three aspects in which modern people are different from early people;Exercise 3:let students find out the three topics that the archaeologist refers to when he talks about the Zhoukoudian caves.三维目标设计Knowledge and skills1.To know the meanings of the following new words and phrases in this period:alternative(可能的选择),starvation(挨饿;饿死),tentative(试探性的;不确定的),accuracy(精确;准确),interrupt(打岔;暂时中断或中止),acute(有观察力的;敏锐的;深刻的),assume(假定;设想),regardless of(不管;不顾),mat(席子;垫子),quilt(被子),beast(野兽),at most(至多;最多),centimetre(厘米),sharpen(锋利;尖锐),sharpener (磨具;削具),cut up(切碎),ample(足够的;充足的;富裕的),messy(凌乱的;脏的),primitive(原始的;简陋的),botany(植物学),botanical(植物学的;与植物学有关的),analysis(分析),seashell(海贝壳),ripen(使……成熟;成熟)2.To learn something about the Zhoukoudian caves.3.To develop the students' reading ability by reading the passage.4.To develop the students' speaking ability by talking about archaeological finds and the life of early people.Process and methods1.While doing Warming Up the teacher can lead in the topic of this unit by showing students a picture of an archaeological object.Students can practice their oral English by describing it.By reading the passage,students can have a better understanding of what is archaeology.2.During Pre-reading the teacher can go around the classroom and discuss the questions with several students.This discussion should be student-centered and help students understand the life of the Peking Man.The teacher should lead the students to look at the organization of the reading passage and try to guess the main idea of the text.3.While doing Reading and Comprehending,the teacher may first ask the students to read the text quickly to get the general idea of the passage.After detailed reading of the passage,students are encouraged to answer some questions and study the style of the text.4.To consolidate the contents of the reading passage,the students should be required to discuss questioning techniques the archaeologist uses in the passage.Emotion,attitude and value1.To arouse students' interest in archaeology.2.To develop students' sense of cooperative learning.教学重点、难点1.To enable the students to learn about the life that early people lived and to develop their reading ability.2.To enable the students to describe an archaeological object.教学过程Step 1Warming up1.Warming up by looking and talkingAsk the students to look at the following picture and discuss what it is and how much they know about it.The students should be encouraged to describe the picture using their own words.Suggested answers:It is Stonehenge,which is Britain's greatest national icon,symbolizing mystery,power and endurance.It wasn't constructed for any casual purpose.Only something very important to the ancients would have been worth the effort and investment that it took to construct Stonehenge.2.Warming up by reading a short passageWhat is archaeology?Archaeology is the study of ancient civilizations by scientific analysis of physical remains found in the ground.But unlike history,it often has to deal with civilizations that have no written records.So it is the job of archaeologists to try to find out as much as they can about the life and times of long dead people by looking at the places where they lived,what they wore,what tools they used and how they buried the dead.The study of archaeology is not just the study of objects.These are very important of course.But what is equally important for understanding how people lived is:Where the objects were found(on the floor of a house or with a body in the grave)Whether they were found with other similar objects or aloneWhat state they were inWhat they were made ofSo to get the most information about the site and the people who lived there,an excavation has to be organized in a very systematic and formal way.By excavating a site,archaeologists have destroyed the evidence.So writing and drawing everything in the place where it was found is extremely important.True or false:(1)Archaeology is the study of modern civilizations by scientific analysis of physical remains found in the ground.(2)The study of archaeology is not just the study of objects but also the study of how people lived.Suggested answers:(1)F(2)TStep 2Pre-reading1.Try a tentative guess about what Peking Man might have done and used thousands of years ago.(1)Places for living:_____________________________________________________ (2)Furniture:___________________________________________________________ (3)Entertainment:_______________________________________________________ (4)Food:_______________________________________________________________ (5)Clothing:_____________________________________________________________ Suggested answers:(1)caves(2)fireplaces(3)meals together(4)fish,meat,fruit in season(5)animal skins,leaves2.Ask students to discuss their answers and the reasons.Step 3Reading and comprehending1.Fast readingLet the students read the passage quickly and write down three ways in which the life of early people differs from that of modern ones.(1)______(2)______(3)________2.Detailed reading(1)Ask students to read the text carefully to get some specific information and do the true or false questions.①A group of students from England has come to the Zhoukoudian caves for a visit.()②In the caves,human and animal bones,tools and ornaments have been found.()③Fires were only used for keeping warm.()④The most dangerous enemies for the earliest people were tigers and bears.()⑤The earliest people wore clothes made from animal skins.()⑥The primitive necklace was made of animal bones and shells.()⑦There was no trade between early peoples.()⑧The earliest people were called hunters or gatherers.()(2)Ask students to do the following multiple choices.①According to the text,we can infer that ______.A.there was a large lake around the Zhoukoudian cavesB.the early people don't know how to catch or eat fishC.the early people didn't care about their appearance at allD.the early people wore nothing but some leaves②From the passage we can know when archaeologists explain something,they often state their ideas ______(A.definitely B.tentatively),that is,they often use ______(A.I know this B.It seems that...C.The evidence suggests that...D.It is reasonable to assume that...).(3)Read the text again and find out the three topics that the archaeologist talked about.Topic one:_________________________________________________________________ Topic two:_________________________________________________________________ Topic three:________________________________________________________________ Suggested answers:1.(1)homes(2)clothes(3)tools2.(1)①T②T③F④T⑤T⑥T⑦F⑧T(2)①A②B;B,C,D(3)Topic one:Life in the cavesTopic two:What we can learn from a needleTopic three:What we can learn from a necklaceStep 4Language studyDeal with language problems if any(words or sentences students might not understand)to help the students to have a better understanding of the text.Step 5Listening,reading aloud and underliningAsk students to read the passage aloud to the tape and let them pay attention to the pronunciation of each word and the pauses within each sentence.Tell them to pick out all the useful expressions or collocations from the passage while reading and copy them down in their notebooks after class as homework.Collocations:show sb.around;be aware(that);regardless of;keep out;be made of;cut up;care about;look likeStep 6Studying the style of the textKeys for reference:This reading passage is written in the form of questions and answers.It is similar to an interview,but the questions follow an earlier question,which is different from an interview.It is also different from other styles of writing which use continuous prose.Step 7DiscussionGet students to discuss the questioning techniques that the archaeologist uses in the passage.Keys for reference:All the archaeologists will never say “I

archaeological object and try to introduce it to the classmates next period.Step 9Reflection after teaching________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________教学参考1.Zhoukoudian(The Cave of Peking Man)Zhoukoudian,located in 50 kilometers to the southwest of Beijing proper,is the former residence of Peking Man,who lived here approximately 200 000 to 500 000 years ago.Since the discovery of a complete skull on December 2,1929,Zhoukoudian,which had more recently been noted for its production of lime,became world­famous as the “home of the Chinese ape­man”.After the establishment of the People's Republic of China,the number of sightseers and scientists increased rapidly,and Zhoukoudian has become a great tourist attraction.Peking Man chose Zhoukoudian as his residence because the limestone caves and crevices in the area provided an excellent habitat.The northern face of Dragon Bone Hill(Longgushan),which stands to the east of the Zhoukoudian Railway Station,is the site of the caves occupied by Peking Man.In fact,a total of four early residential sites have been discovered on this hill.Besides those belonging to Peking Man,the remains of a site occupied by Hilltop Caveman are the most representative.(From /travel/beijing_guide/2008-05/17/content_15297950.htm)2.Stonehenge(巨石阵)Stonehenge is surely Britain's greatest national icon,symbolizing mystery,power and endurance(耐久).Its original purpose is unclear to us,but some have guessed that it was a temple made for the worship of ancient earth deities(神).It has been called an astronomical observatory (天文台)for marking significant events on the prehistoric calendar.Others claim that it was a sacred(神的)site for the burial of high-ranking citizens from the societies of long ago.While we can't say with any degree of certainty what it was for,we can say that it wasn't constructed for any casual purpose.Only something very important to the ancients would have been worth the effort and investment that it took to construct Stonehenge.The stones we see today represent Stonehenge in ruins.Many of the original stones have fallen or been removed by previous generations for home construction or road repair.There has been serious damage to some of the smaller bluestones resulting from close visitor contact (forbidden since 1978)and the prehistoric carvings on the larger stones show signs of significant wear.(From /gallery/photo_464469.htm)。
