Warming up1.Get 1-2 Ss to report to the class information of Copernicus( Who is he? What achievement did he make? When? …)2. BackgroundNicolaus Copernicus was a Polish astronomer (1473-1543). Born in Torun, he began his university studies in Krakow in 1491, where he studied canon law and Latin and Greek classics. However he also had an interest in mathematics and astronomy. After obtaining his degree of Doctor of Canon Law (教会法规博士学位)in Italy in 1503, Copernicus returned home to Warmia in Poland to serve as Canon (=priest) .In 1530, Copernicus completed his great work De Revolutionibus (《天体运行论》).Copernicus knew that these findings would lead him into trouble with the Roman Catholic Church (罗马天主教教徒), so he wasin no hurry to publish his theory. He only published it as he lay dying in 1543.Though Copernicus did not live to hear of its extraordinary impact, the book which first suggested that the Sun, not the Earth, is the centre of the universe is now recognized as one of the most influential scientific works of all time.3 Get Ss to give the names of the nine planets of the solar system .

I hope you will publish it for several reasons.I understand the problems with the present theory. The way the planets move is not what you would expect if the earth was the certre of the universe. It is also odd that the brightness of some stars seems to change. So I agree with you that we need a new theory.I know your observations have been very carefully carried out over many years. Now you must have the courage to publish them. Science can never advance unless people have the courage of their beliefs. I know youworry about what will happen if you publish your new theory. No matter how people oppose it, time will show if your ideas are right or wrong.So I hope you will feel you can publish your new theory.Yours sincerely,Zhang HuaStep 5.

善良的人永远是受苦的，那忧苦的重担似乎是与生俱来的，因此只有忍耐。 雄心壮志是茫茫黑夜中的北斗星。 最好的，不一定是最合适的；最合适的，才是真正最好的。 相信你行，你就活力无穷。 人若有志，万事可为。 得意时应善待他人，因为你失意时会需要他们。 一个华丽短暂的梦，一个残酷漫长的现实。 读书给人以快乐、给人以光彩、给人以才干。 不论你在什么时候开始，重要的是开始之后就不要停止。 目标再远大，终离不开信念去支撑。 如果要飞得高，就该把地平线忘掉。 自然界没有风风雨雨，大地就不会春华秋实。 吃别人吃不了的苦，忍别人受不了的气，付出比别人更多的，才会享受的比别人更多。 好习惯的养成，在于不受坏习惯的诱惑。 目标再远大，终离不开信念去支撑。 你不能左右天气，但你能转变你的心情。 生活就像海洋，只有意志将强的人才能到达彼岸。 千万人的失败，都有是失败在做事不彻底，往往做到离成功只差一步就终止不做了。 理想的书籍是智慧的铜匙。 语言是心灵和文化教养的反映。
