Have you ever had the experience of listening to a piece of music and feeling that it is written just for you？Music can be used to express many feelings，such as love，sorrow，friendship and peace. Although people from different areas of the world have different styles of music，we can still unde rstand each other’s music. Without music，what would our lives be like？How much do you know about music？Now let’s try to say some words about music:● Music: classical music，pop music，folk music，swing music，blues，jazz，rock and roll，rap，opera…● P eople related to music: musician，singer，composer，pianist，violinist…● Musical instruments: guitar，piano，violin，drum…Step 2: Sharing information1. Work in groups of four and discuss the four pictures on page 17.Picture of a jazz bandWhat are the people doing in this picture？What do you know about jazz？(Jazz is a musical art form. At the end of the 19th century，jazz music was the most popular type of music. Jazz was started in New Orleans in the USA and most jazz musicians at that time were black. It has been called the first original art form to develop in the USA. Early jazz musicians made money by playing in small bands. Often，jazz musicians made up the music as they were playing.Early jazz came from folk music and later developed into something else of its own.) Do you know any famous jazz musicians？(Louis Armstrong，one of the most famous jazz musicians，was born in New Orleans. He created wonderful jazz music with his trumpet. In addition to playing trumpet，he also sang and danced. He performed on Broadway，in films and recorded music.)What does jazz music sound like to you？Picture of Chinese operaWhat are the people doing in this picture？What is Chinese opera？(Chinese opera is a traditional form of drama in China. It started in the Tang Dynasty when Emperor Xuanzong founded the ‘Pear Garden’. A Chinese opera performance includes elements such as dance，song，dialogue，swordplay and acrobatics. The features of Chinese opera which can distinguish a character’s age，gender and personality are the makeup，movements，props and the colour of costumes.)What does Chinese opera sound like？(To some young people nowadays，the music accompanied by gongs，cymbals，drums and stringed instruments sounds a bit ‘shrill’ and ‘noisy’. However，the stories and the melodies are unique.)Do you know any famous Chinese opera performers？Picture of a girl playing the violinWhat is the girl doing in this picture？What do you know about the violin？(The violin belongs to the string family of instruments. It is made of wood and uses steel strings. A violinist uses a bow pulled across the strings to create beautiful music.)Do you know any famous violinists？(In the past，the great violinists played the violin as well as writing music for the instrument. After the 19th century，composers and violinists started to be two different roles. The most famous violin composers and players are Corelli，Vivaldi，Locatelli and later Paganini，Sarasate，Wieniawski，Vieuxtemps，Ysave，Kreisler and Enesco.Picture of a girl playing the pianoWhat is the girl doing in this picture？What do you know about the piano？(The piano belongs to the percussion family of instruments. It consists of a keyboard attached to a wooden box，inside of which are metal strings. A piano is played by pressing the keys. Each of the keys isattached to a hammer that strikes one of the strings inside the box.)Do you know any famous pianists？(Among the most famous pianists are Beethoven from Germany，Franz Liszt from Hungary and Frederick Chopin from Poland. Beethoven is known for his sonatas，Liszt for the Hungarian Rhapsody and Chopin for Revolution Etude.)2. Work in pairs and have a discussion about the three questions below the pictures.Step 3: DiscussionMany of us believe that music can have a very great effect on us. This is especially true of classical music，which some people believe can make us calmer or even smarter. There is a theory，called the ‘Mozart Effect’，that playing classical music for a child can help his or her brain develop. As a result，a lot of parents play classical music for their children，some evenbeginning before the child is born，in the hope that their children will be smarter. What do you think of the ‘Mozart Effect’ theory？Do you think it is true？Why or why not？Do you think adults can become smarter or calmer by listening to classical music？Why or why not？Step 4: Homework1. Collect more information about music.2. Prepare the Reading part.。

Get students to focus on the topic of the unit “The Universal language”.If a language can be understood by all the people in the world, it is a universal language. So is English a universal language?(No, not everyone in the world can speak and understand English.)What about pictures? Are they universal? (Yes. A picture can be appreciated by people all over the world.)Is body language also universal? (Yes, body language is more or less t he same throughout the world. It is a very effective way for people speaking different languages to communicate with each other.)3. Draw students’ attention to the unit topic—music.There is also another kind of language which is universal. That is music. Why do we say so? (Because people all over the world can understand music)Prepare the students with vocabulary related to music. Have them brainstorm any word related to the kind of music, people related to music and musical instruments. Kinds of music: classical music, pop music, folk music, swing music, blues, jazz, rock and roll, rap, opera …People related to mu sic: musician, singer, composer, pianist, violinist …Musical instru ments: guitar, piano, violin, drum …[Explanation]该步骤试图从人类不同的种类（语句不通顺）的共同语言引入到音乐这个话题，然后以“头脑风暴”这一活动形式，准备学生的相关词汇。

Unit 2The universal language【美文阅读】What is music?音乐，是人们生活中不可缺少的一部分。
什么是音乐？你喜欢什么样的音乐？Suppose you hit a wooden table with your hand. It makes a sound. Now suppose you hit a ball. It makes a sound. The second sound is called a tone(乐音). A tone is a single musical sound. Music is the art of organizing tones into meaningful patterns of sound. We might call it the language of tones. Sometimes the language of music speaks to us in tones sounding after one another in melody(旋律). Or the tones could be sounding together in harmony(协调)．When tones hit with one another, it is not in harmony. But this hit is often full of meaning. What we call melody is given meaning by its rising or falling or moving straight ahead. It is also given meaning by its rhythm of beats and phrasing, its speed and how loud or soft it is at any moment. All of this sounds very technical. But it doesn't have to be understood or thought about for us to enjoy music. What music means to us often can not be put into words. We can feel that the mu-sic expresses joy or sorrow, pleasure, tenderness(柔情), love, anger—all kinds of things and feelings that words alone could never do.Music can also be enjoyed just for its beauty, and not for what it is saying. We can get pleasure from even a single tone of voice, violin, horn, or some other instruments. We may love a beautiful melody for many years of our lives and always enjoy hearing it.There are, of course, many forms of music, from the anthem(赞美诗) to the symphony, and many types of music, from folk music to opera.【诱思导学】1．Do you like music? What kind of music do you like most?2．According to the above passage, what kinds of expressions can we feel from the music?【答案】 1.Yes, I like it very much. I like soft ( pop, rock and roll, etc. ) music most.2. We can feel that the music expresses joy or sorrow, pleasure, tenderness, love, anger—all kinds of things and feelings that words alone could never do.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，对新课文的全面理解起到一个铺垫作用。
