It comes from a planet going around a star on the outer part of the Andromeda galaxy. To begin with we thought it would be impossible to talk to this creature. It used to run away and hide whenever we came near. However, my friend thought of a good way to make friends with it.S2: I noticed that it always looked up when oil was near. SO I thought maybe it could smell the oil so I covered myself in oil and went near. The moddock did not run away but came close to sniff me.S1: Once we knew that an oil –smell was the way to make friends with it, everything was much easier.S2: It would put one of its six hands over your face and feel the lip movements. Then it remembered them and watched your face. We found it could speak our language very quickly and soon we were having long conversation s. They ‘re marvelous language learners.2. WritingAsk Ss to draw a picture of their aliens and then write an essay based on their pictures. At last let them read it to their partners.Sample writing:The moddock is an alien from the Andromeda galaxy. It is shy until you get to know it. To make friends you need to cover yourself in oil as that is the thing the moddock likes best. It should be able to help you with your English homework because it is such a marvelous language learner! It stays in one place most of the time as it finds moving so painful. When it has to move, it rolls over and over like a ball. Moddocks live alone and never go to school. They don’t need to, as they are good observers and quick learners from others. It really likes humans and as we are now friends, it wants to become a human being too.Step 3. Discovering useful structures1. Individual workGive Ss two sentences in which the past participle is used as an adverbial phrase.Eg Worried about the journey, I was unsettled for the first few days.Then ask Ss to find other three sentences from the reading passage with the past participle used as the adverbial.(1)Well-known for their expertise, his parent’s company…(2)Confused by the new surroundings, I was hit by the lack…(1)Exhausted, I slid into bed…Let’s Ss discuss the usage of past par ticiple and find some grammar usages.2.

Unit 3 Life in the future【美文阅读】Robotic age draws closer随着科技的发展，机器人时代的到来已经指日可待。
These days，robots are more common than you might think.Consider the Roomba，a robotic vacuum(吸尘器)which cleans floors on its own.“We wanted to mak e something simple that people could use every day，”says Greiner，cofounder of IRobot，the company that makes the smart vacuum.“And that's what inspired us to build the Roomba.”Some robots like the Roomba are already very common in many US households.IRobot makes everything from the Roomba to robots that someday might become a part of us.“You can have robotics equipped into your body，to get back that arm or leg that you've lost，either in some accident or disease，”says Greiner.Although robots have been developed mainly for military(军用的)applications，civilian uses for the technology are growing，according to Michael Toscano，president of the Association for Unmanned(自控的)Vehicles International.“Unmanned systems allow human beings to do their task with an exten sion of their hands，their eyes and their ears.”“We can put them in the ocean and they'll swim for eight or nine months，collecting data and monitoring ocean pollution，”says Hudson of IRobot.Recently the US Government's Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA)displayed a “robotic man”．Instead of depending on remotecontrol，DARPA's “robotic man” can actuallylook at some blocks，find one with a special pattern，and move it to a newlocation.Mandelbaum，DARPA's project manager，says more challenging tasks lie ahead.Some day，a DARPA robot might find a hidden bomb or help a disabled person selecta shirt and button it.To advance the technology，DARPA plans to let members of the pubic write softwarefor the “robotic man”，then sign onto the Internet and wat ch a model of “roboticman” perform the task.It's one of the ways that robots will help humankind to extend its reach.【诱思导学】1．The example of the Roomba shows that .2．Do you think that robots will play an important role in the future？Why?【答案】 1.civilian uses for the robotic technology are growing 2.Yes.Becausethere may be more and more robots coming into our life with the development of scienceand technology.(answers are different)Period ⅠPreviewing(教师用书独具)●教学目标初步掌握本课文中的词汇，浅层次理解课文，了解相关的背景知识。

(=As they were deeply moved, the children began to cry.)She walked out of the house, followed by her little daughter. (= she walked out of the house, and was followed by her daughter.)Beaten by the enemy, he refused to let out the secret. (= Although he was beaten by the enemy, he refused to let out the secret.)反过来，讲状语从句改成过去分词作状语的结构时，有事也保留连词，构成“连词+ 过去分词”结构作状语。
