English was first spoken by the Anglo-Saxons who invaded England in the fifth century. They passed onto us the basic vocabulary of English. In over fifteen centuries of its development, English has enriched itself by massive borrowing. As British immigrants landed in America and established the United States as an independent nation, a new variety was added to the English language: AmericanEnglish. Though some people worry that the language is running out of control, many native speakers of English take pride in the tolerance of their language.Unit8 Protecting Our Environment VocabularyI1)barking2)evil3)brooding;hatched 4)migrant 5)tragedies6)counterpart7)arecomplaining/co-mplain8)grim9)flocks; fed on10)vegetation11)patches12)Scores of1)was lined with people who came to welcome the distinguished foreignguests.2)the boss silenced all lively conversation in the office.3)wearing a pair of sun glasses, the famous movie star passed the crowedunnoticed.4)looked deserted.5)were stricken by it.1)patches; came into full bloom; were puzzled; mysterious2)throbbed with; sickened; migrant; a chorus3)had crept into; flickered; the starkII.Word FormationCompound words age-oldair force daughter-in-law first-rate greenhousehalf brotherice-creamlifelikelight year salespersonself-centered threefold overusestone-still worldwide Chinese meaning古老的空军儿媳妇一流的温室同母异父兄弟；同父异母兄弟冰淇淋逼真的光年售货员；推销员以自己为中心的，自私的三倍过度使用石头似的一动不动全世界范围的；在世界范围内1)poverty-stricken people2)heart-breaking news 3)newly-built database4)well-fed kids5)successful spacewalk6)peace-loving people 7)need-based scholarships8)color-blind peopleIII.Confusable Words1.lyingidyin5.liey7.lieyy10.liesComprehensive Exercises I.cloze(1)spell(2)stricken(3)misfortunes(4)surroundings(5)blossom/bloom(6)migrant (7)deserted(8)silence(9)sickened(10)h atch(11)p uzzled(12)i n harmony with(1)rate(2)publication(3)dangerous(4)banned (5)export(6)profit(7)accept(8)comprehend(9)boundaries(10)u ltimatelyII.Translation1)This is a prosperous town, but there is still poverty in the midst of wealthand abundance.2)The Brown family was stricken with one misfortune after another, buttheir children never complained.3)The museum is designed in such a way that it stands in perfect harmonywith its surroundings.4)It was a miracle that these flowers did not wither at all in the blazingsun.5)Flocks of sheep feed on the patches of vegetation that rise above thewinter snow.This village was once famous for its beautiful natural surroundings. All the year round, the trees were green and the flowers in bloom. Clear streams flowed out of the hills through a checkerboard of rice fields.

Misfortunes came one after another. Chicken died suddenly, cattle and sheep were stricken by mysterious maladies, and farmers complained about a sickening feeling that puzzled the village doctor. The village square, once throbbing with life, was now deserted.。

Unit One Ways of LearningTeaching Objectives of this Unit:Students will be able to:1.grasp the main idea (that it would be ideal if we can strike a balance between the Chinese andthe Western learning styles) and structure of the text (introduction of the topic by an anecdote―elaboration by comparison and contrast― conclusion by a suggestion);2.appreciate the difference between comparison and contrast, as well as different ways to compareand contrast (point-by-point method or one-side-at-a-time method);3.master the key language points and grammatical structures in the text;4.conduct a series of reading, listening, speaking and writing activities related to the theme of thisunit.Previewing Tasks:T asks Ss to:1.get familiar with the following important words and expressions in Text A, which will enablethem to understand the text better: attach, initial, occasion, neglect, relevant, accomplish, in due course, make up for, continual, evolve, emerge, superior;2.pre-read Text A and try to find out the differences in education between China and America. Ssare also encouraged to collect more information on this issue from some after-class materials; 3.finish the comprehension questions for text organization on p. 10 of the textbook.First Period（90minutes）I. Cultural Notes:(1) Middle-class American: the old urban middle class consisted mainly of white collar workers and owners of the family businesses and their employees. They focused the majority of the middle class before 1945. The new middle class emerged out of the ashes of wartime destruction and consisted of salaried workers, blue collar, white collar, store clerks, shop keepers, regardless of the line of business they were in, all joined the ranks of the new middle-class which is between the very wealthy class and the class of unskilled laborers and unemployed people.(2) Standing on the shoulders of giants: a well-known phrase frequently employed by inventors to express modesty about their achievements. The suggestion is that while they have been able to see further than those who came before them, it is not because they themselves are intellectual giants. Rather it is because they have been able to build upon the accumulated discoveries of their great predecessors.II. A discussion for leading to Text A:1. If you find a two-year-old boy is trying to put a key into a box, will you help him immediately?---- Of course. He is too small to know how to do it---- No. let him do it and learn by trying.2.Can you recall how your parents taught you in your childhood? Did they like to teach you by holding your hand?---- (stories in their childhood)----Yes, I like it. I knew nothing as a little child and their help could give me a convenient way to achieve what I wanted.---- No, I don’t like it. Doing by myself could help me to grasp the things tightly.3. Which way did you prefer when you were in trouble with one of your toys in your childhood, turning to your parents for help, or exploring by yourselves?---- turning to my parents for help, because I was too young to know how to manage it.---- exploring by myself, like Kevin in Home Alone.4.Can you list some features of education in China based on the above discussions? Can youIn a broad sense, education is a kind of cultural phenomenon. Therefore, when we compare Sino-American education systems, it is indispensable to investigate the two cultures first, for it is the different cultures that lead to the differences in education. Knowing that, on the one hand, the core of Chinese education, though in varied forms, is given to the accumulation of knowledge and the construction of learning system and the aim of education is in molding, while on the American side, priority is given to fostering student’s ability to make practical application of knowledge learnt and boldness in innovations, creativity, originality, and the aim of its education is in perfection of his/her personality for the future happiness, you’ll find it is not hard to understand such common occurrences in text A or in daily life as why many Chinese staff would like to assist Benjamin to insert the key into the slot.III. Text Organization (exercise on P. 10):An essay is usually made up of three parts: a beginning where the topic is introduced; the body part where the topic is elaborated on, and a conclusion. This text is no exception:Part one: (Para.1—5) Topic introduced by an anecdote of teaching a child to insert a key into a slot. Part two: (Para.6—12) The differences in education between China and America.Point 1: Two different ways to learn to accomplish a task (Para.6—10)Point 2: Two different attitudes to creativity and skills (Para 11—12)Part three: (Para. 13—14) Conclusion: The author suggests that we might strike a better balance between the two contrary ways of education.(Teachers can draw the following chart on the blackboard to help the students be clear of the structure of Text A :)Chinese way↗↘Incident →→→difference in education →→→ conclusion↘American way ↗IV. Study in detail:Part one (Para. 1-5):1.Skimming: T asks Ss to skim this part and then answer the following questions:① Where and when did the incident take place? (Jinling Hotel in Nanjing, spring 1987)② Who are the main characters in this incident? (The author, his wife Ellen, their son Benjamin and the hotel staff)③ What is the attitude of the author and his wife towards Benjamin’s efforts in inserting the key into the slot? (They let him explore and enjoy himself)④ What is the attitude of the hotel staff toward Benjamin’s efforts? (They held his hand and taught him how to insert the key correctly)2. Language points in this part:1) reflect on: think deeply about, remind oneself of, considerI need time to reflect on your offer.2) attach: fasten or joinThe porter attached a label to my suitcase.She was strongly attached to her home.3)…to position the key just so:to position the key carefully to fit into the narrow key slot4) not in the least: not at allAnn didn't seem in the least concerned about her study5) on occasion: now and thenSteve spent almost all his time doing his research, but, on occasion, he would take his son to see a film.6) relevant: directly connected with the subject (followed by to, opposite irrelevant)Be related to / be associated with / be connected with / be concerned with7）assist: help (used in the pattern: assist sb. to do sth. , assist sb. with sth. )The head teacher’s deputy assists with many of his duties.3. T tells Ss that there are many ways of introducing a topic: ① to state the topic directly; ② to introduce the topic by posing a question (e.g. Text A, Unit 6, Book1: What Animals Really Think?);③to begin by quoting newspaper headlines (e.g. Text B, Unit 3, Book 1: How to Make Sense out of Science); ④an anecdote or an incident is used. Ss should decide which way is adopted by Howard Gardner, and T should drive home to them the very important point that they should learn to vary their own writing by adopting various types of topic introduction.V. Assignments:1. read the left two parts of text A in detail, pick out the sentences that can not easily understand.2. finish exercise 2 on P. 11, so as to get a better understanding of the differences in approaches to learning between the Chinese and Americans.Second Period (90minutes)I. Dictation:In a broad sense, education is a kind of cultural phenomenon. Therefore, when we compare Sino-America education systems, it is necessary to investigate the two cultures first, for it is the different cultures that lead to the difference in education. The Chinese give great priority to showing a child how to accomplish a task; In contrast, the Americans attach much importance to fostering students’ ability to make practical application of the knowledge and to encouraging them to be bold in innovation, creativity and originality.II. Part two:1. T asks Ss to scan this part quickly and then try to figure out the structure of this part:Para. 6-7: different explanations of the Chinese and the Americans for helping the children(Chinese: accomplish the task sooner, and they can proceed to more complex activities; Americans: self-reliance is a principle value of child rearing in middle-class American.)Para. 8-10: two different ways to learn.Para. 11-12: two different attitudes towards creativity and skills.2. T guides Ss to further discuss the differences in detail (check of assignment No.2):In this part, the author just gives his own thoughts on different approaches to leaning in China and the West based on the anecdote mentioned in the first part. Ss are supposed to sum up the differences in approaches to learning between the Chinese and Americans, including the two different ways to learn and two different attitudes towards creativity and skills as suggested by thecontrast (a comparison brings out the similarities between two or more things of the same kind, while a contrast the differences between them).3. T further explains to Ss that there are generally two ways to organize comparison and contrast in essays. One way is to examine one subject thoroughly and then start the other (one-side-at-a-time method), and the other way is to examine two subjects at the same time, discussing them point by point (point-by-point method). Then T asks Ss to scan Para. 6-7 and Para.11-13 respectively and decide what method of comparison and contrast are used here (one-side-at-a-time method for Para. 6-7 and point-by-point method for Para.11-13).4. Language points in this part:1) accomplish: manage to do (sth.)Unless you practice you’ll accomplish nothing.2) continual: describing separate actions which are repeated over a period of time.Recently the young couple have continual arguments with each other for trifles.continuous: indicating that an action carries on without stopping or interruptionA continuous beach is exposed to the beating of continual waves.3) apply: ① be relevant; have an effect ( used in the pattern apply to sb/sth)The principle of diligence applies to all undergoing② write a letter or fill in a form in order to ask formally for sth. (used in the pattern: apply for sth.. apply to do sth.)4) evolve: (cause to) develop gradually ;( used in the pattern evolve into, evolve from)The story evolves into a tragedy.Popular music evolves from folk songs.5) emerge: come out (followed by from)Emergence, n.出现emergency, n. 紧急情况，不测事件，非常时刻6) Sentences:① He may well get frustrated and angry. (line 39)may或might与well连用，表示有充分的理由，完全（能），（满）可以。

English was first spoken by the Anglo-Saxons who invaded England in the fifth century. They passedonto us the basic vocabulary of English. In over fifteen centuries of its development, English has enriched itself by massive borrowing. As British immigrants landed in America and established the United States as an independent nation, a new variety was added to the English language: American English. Though some people worry that the language is running out of control, many native speakers of English take pride in the tolerance of their language.Unit8 Protecting Our Environment Vocabulary1.1) barking 5) tragedies 8) grim2) evil 6) counterpart 9) flocks; fed on3) brooding; 7) are 10) vegetationhatched complaining/co- 11) patches4) migrant mplain 12) Scores of2.1) was lined with people who came to welcome the distinguishedforeign guests.2) the boss silenced all lively conversation in the office.3) wearing a pair of sun glasses, the famous movie star passed the crowed unnoticed.4) looked deserted.5) were stricken by it.3.1) patches; came into full bloom; were puzzled; mysterious2) throbbed with; sickened; migrant; a chorus3) had crept into; flickered; the stark2.II.

Misfortunes came one after another. Chicken died suddenly, cattle and sheep were stricken by mysterious maladies, and farmers complained about a sickening feeling that puzzled the village doctor.

But can you use a camera to tell a story, too?What is it?Photo Camp is a four-day class. Young adults learn to take photos and tell stories with their cameras. Their teachers are National Geographic photographers.What happens?Students have class in the morning. They learn things like this: How can you take a beautiful photo of a person or something in nature? When is it good to take a black and white photo? In the afternoon, they go out and take lots of pictures. Then they learn to choose the best ones.In some Photo Camp classes, students learn about problems in their area. For example, in the Caribbean country of Barbados,students learned about water problems. Then they took photos and wrote about it.Photo Camps also bring people together. In one camp, students from Brazil visited Doha (Qatar’s capital) for ten days. Together, the students traveled around Qatar. They learned about Qatar’s culture and language.

Students and teachers at 20 schools in China’s poor rural areas had their own computer labs at the end of 2001. The labs were jointly funded by China Youth Development Foundation and Coca-Cola (China) Beverages Ltd., which planned to establish more computer labs in 1,200 rural schools.2. China is now using India’s rich resources and expertise in IT education to meet its great demand for software professionals. An Indian company has recently signed a deal with China to establish a joint venture company in Beijing. It is the first Indian company to invest in the education of software professionals in China.3. Code Red II, the world’s most vicious cyber w orm, is about to start another attack. Unlike its former peer, “I love you” bug, this time the Code Red series will target Internet servers and the network. Anti-bug experts are calling for greater online security.PART III VIDEOSCRIPTNarrator:Just outside Johannesburg, South Africa, the day begins for seventeen year old Mamorena Chaane.She’s a student at St. Mary’s, a very expensive private school. Mamorena gets a great education here.In South Africa, many people leave school as teenagers. So Mamorena is a very lucky young woman.This is her mother, Tandi. She grew up in a poor area in Johannesburg. Today, she and her family live in the suburbs and she is a successful businesswoman.But every week, Tandi takes Mamorena to her old neighborhood in Johannesburg. Tandi grew up here, and her life was very difficult.Tandi:“This was a shantytown. This whole area was a shantytown.”Narrator:Tandi shows Mamorena her childhood home. She wants Mamorena to learn about the past — and about the poor today.But Mamorena doesn’t really understand. Her life is so different. Her family has a beautiful home.Mamorena:“We’re born on the same day.”Narrator:And the house has a pool. It’s very different from her mother’s childhood.In many ways, Mamorena is a typical teenager. She loves to go shopping. Sometimes, she says, she feels more Western than South African. She listens to Western music; she eats Western fast food. And her mother worries about this.Tandi:“I want her to always remember who she is. Because I don’t think you become a person if you don’t know where you come from.”Mamorena:“Now, this is the hero of South Africa. He’s ‘Dada’, meaning ‘our father’. ”Narrator:Tandi’s generation worked hard to change South Africa. Now, Mamorena and her generation must work hard too, says Tandi.1. private school: 私立学校2. grow up: 长大。
