By reading A protector of African wildlife, students can learn from Jane Goodall in at least two aspects: one is what is the humane way to study animals; the other is that it was her greatpersonality - universal love and mercy(博爱与慈悲)that made her successful. If everyone had such kind of heart, they would give everything benefit for all living things. Then our world will be full of love and peace, without any war and starvation.b. Ask students to answer these questions:1) What made her a great success?2) What should we learn from Jane Goodall?Teaching difficult points 教学难点Let everyone believe that all of us can become Jane Goodall.Teaching methods 教学方法Inspiration, Questioning and Discussion.Teaching aids 教具准备A computer, a projector and a recorder.Teaching procedures & ways 教学过程与方式StepⅠLead-inT: Good morning, everyone! Haven’t seen you for a long time. Did you have a good time in your holidays? What did you do during the holidays?S1: Yes, I had a good time. You know I enjoy movies, sports and other types of entertainment.I saw several favorite films and every afternoon, I would play basketball with my friends.S2: I would die of boredom. I didn’t know what to do but read. I didn’t know how to relax myself. I just hoped that the new term began. The sooner, the better.T: That sounds interesting. In fact, boredom is a kind of feeling. There is a good way to be away from it. Believe it or not, that is to help others, no matter who they are, human being or a nimals. Have a try, Ok? Today we’ll learn Unit 1. It introduces several women to us and tells us how they live and work. Now let’s turn to Page 1. Look at these pictures and the brief introductions, then work in pairs to discuss which of these women you think is a great woman. You need to give your reasons for your choice.Give students 3 minutes to do this task, and then ask some of them to speak out their choices. Teacher should give them some guide. For example, what is her ambition? What are the problems she met? And what are her sacrifices? After that the teacher can refer to the chart on Page 11 in the reference book. And then give them a brief summary about their discussion.A sample summary:As great women, they don’t care for themselves at all, and at some point or rather, they must give some sacrifices, just like Lin Qiaozhi, she devoted all her life to medical work for Chinese women and children and had chosen not to have a family of her own. Instead, she made sure that about 50,000 babies were safely delivered to their mothers. Not all people can do this. Once they have chosen their careers, they would carry on with them without any withdrawal. What they did is encouraging thousands of people to continue their careers. Those who are only famous but not great can’t be matched.StepⅡReadingThere are four tasks in this step:a. Pre-reading to find the main idea of each paragraph.b. Making a chart of the text structure.c. Language points.d. Comprehending.Task 1 Pre-readingThere are 3 paragraphs in the text, and each one has its main idea. These main ideas support the title A protector of African wildlife. Teacher can give students some time to read the text quickly and find these main ideas to form a overview of the text.T: How many paragraphs are there in the text?Ss: Three.T: What are the main ideas of theirs?S1: The first paragraph is about a day in Combe National Park.S2: The second one tells us how Jane Goodall did her research and the achievement she has made in her research.S3: The third one tells us her influence to the world.T: OK. Can we divide the text in this way? There are four paragraphs in the text. The first one is about a day in the park. The second one is her way of doing her research and some achievement. The third one is her attitude and feeling to the animals. And the last one is a short summary to her.Ss: That’s right.T: Thanks. Well, let’s draw a chart of the text together according to the main ideas we’ve found.Task 2 Making a chartA protector of African wildlife↓①②③│ ∣∣A day in the park Jane’s way to study chimps Her attitude to and her achievement the animals↓④She has achieved everything she wanted to do.Task 3 Language PointsT: By now, we have mastered the main idea and the details. Do you have some difficulties in the language?S1: Yes. What does this sentence mean: “Watching a family of chimps wake up is our first activity of the day”?T: Who’d like to help her?S2: The subject of the sentence is a “V-ing form”, and the Predicate is “is” not “wake up”. So the meaning of the sentence is: 今天我们的第一件事是观察一个猩猩家庭的早起。

词汇部分主要涉及一些构词法、重点词汇和短语。

语法部分是“主谓一致”,重点在如何确定集合名词的数。
