Ⅱ.The analysis of the teaching material
The topic of this unit is “ making a difference”. In this unit, first we can learn about the science subjects and know the importance of each subject. Second, we can get familiar with some great scientists and their famous quotes and achievements, such as Stephen Hawking, Galileo, Albert Einstein, ZhangHeng and so on. Third, we will know how the discoveries and inventions of the great scientists help us better understand the world and improve our life. By knowing this, students are encouraged to study hard, and their love of science and their hope of becoming scientists are inspired.
1.Warming up: It offers us five pictures of foreign great scientists with their famous quotes. By learning their quotes and talking about their achievements, students can know about the key to success and make their minds to be successful.
2. Listening: It contains 4 great minds including the students. In fact, it provides three passages and the students are asked to have a guess who they are, which is so interesting that it may further arouse the students’ enthusiasm in science.
3. Speaking: The students are asked to have a debate about which branch of science is the most important and useful to society. By doing so, students can practice debating skills and use some useful expressions freely. At the same time, they will find that knowledge plays an important part in our daily life.
4.Pre-reading The three questions in pre-reading pave the way for reading.
5.Reading: The text describes Hawking’s disease, dream, achievements and opinions on science and scientific research.
6. Post-reading: The exercises help the students further understand this great scientist.
7. Language study It contains word study and grammar. Students will have a better knowledge of the uses of the infinitive in this part.
8.Integrating skills It includes reading and writing. In the reading passage, students can learn about characteristics of five scientists and their scientific spirit. In the writing part, students are asked to write a paragraph to describe a favourite scientist.
9. Tips Unit One also gives students some advice on how to use the scientific method to learn English.
10. checkpoint
It sums up the uses of the infinitive.
Ⅲ.Teaching arrangements
Period 1&2: Warming up, listening and speaking
Period 3&4: reading
Period 5: Language study
Period 6: Integrating skills and writing
Notes:
1. Amending In warming up, it’s too abstract for the students to talk about the quotes, so we deal with it as a unit task to the students at the very beginning-―make up a column about scientists and their quotes.
2. Replacement In speaking, the text gives the students the debate: Which branch of science is more important and useful to our society?
It’s too difficult and abstract for the students to carry it out. The reasons are as follows:
1) Their vocabulary is not large enough.
2) It’s too difficult to divide each branch of science in our daily life.
In fact, each branch can’t be divided from the others. Only by combining them together, can we make our world more beautiful.
So we change the topic, and ask the students to talk about what has happened in our daily life. That is , should a nuclear power station be built in Sanmen? This topic can give the students lots of space to talk about.
3. Adding This unit doesn’t give a good sample for the students to write about a scientist. So it is also very difficult for the students to do the writing well. Because of this, we add a research task to the students after finishing the reading material No Boundaries. (What is science and what is the spirit of a scientist? Do research on your favorite scientist and try to find out what makes him /her successful. The students are asked to finish the task by surfing the Internet.) With the help of the first unit task--- to make up a column about scientists and their quotes, it’s possible for the students to write a good article about a favorite scientist.

the fourth period
teaching aims and demands
integrating skill
grammar and writing
get the students to write an email
key points: 1. useful expressions; 2.writing 3.grammar
teaching methods: written practice and grammar.
teaching procedures
step 1. revision
(1) check the work exercises.
(2)a test for unit 1
to get the students to review the grammar and write the passage on page 88
pal restaurant is one of the many restaurants where people come to eat, drink, talk and enjoy music. it is different from other restaurants because its owners are a group of college students. “we run this restaurant to make friends,” says the manager, hu ming.
but the students’ parents say that they are unhappy about this. “we can’t stop them but we want them to put study in the first place.” teachers do not support them, either. hu ming says that a teacher has already told him that he should spend more time on study.
all the managers say that running a business takes a lot of time. “we don’t have the money to hire enough waiters or waitresses, so we do most of the work ourselves,” says liu tao. “sometimes we have to skip classes to keep an eye on the restaurant,” says another boy.
but liu tao says they are doing ok.
3 answers may vary. possible titles/headlines include “study first or business first?” “students running bar”
step 2. integrating skill
instruction: the reading describes different kinds of friends. let the students read the first paragraph and answer questions 1-3, then ask them to think of words that can be used to describe the different kinds of friends. you can also tell the students to choose words from the “5-star friend” activity in the student’s book.
extension what does it take to make a friendship work? the students can work in groups and select one kind of friendship described in the reading and think about the advantages and disadvantages of such a friendship. what problems might arise? how could they be solved? (the students can refer to the listening activity).
suggested answers
1 c
2 a fair-weather friend will only like you when you are happy and popular; a forever friend is a true friend and will help you when you are in trouble.
3 list the characteristics of each kind of friend:
a fair-weather friend only likes you when you are happy and popular, doesn’t help you when you have problems. (students can add more)
a school friend studies and plays together with you, sees you in school. (students can add more)
a forever friend knows everything about you, always listens to you. (students can add more)
4 sarah helped janet overcome her shyness and deal with her classmates. janet helped sarah study math.
5 answers may vary.
6 you can make friends with people from other countries by reading e-pal/pen pal ads in newspapers or on the internet.
7 one of the advantages of having friends in other countries is that you can learn more about the world. you can also learn more about other languages and cultures. there are a few disadvantages, including the fact that it can be difficult to be friends if you live far away from each other.
8 answers may vary. one possible interpretation is that all the people around us could be our friends; friendship is a two-way relationship and it takes work and patience to develop a good friendship.
step 3 writing
ask the students to read the e-mail and find out what the girl wants to know more about. tell the students to think about what they want to tell the girl. as a pre-writing activity, the students can list the things they want to include in the e-mail. when the students have written the e-mail, you can compare what they have written.
assessing
a learner log is a set of questions that will help the students to reflect on how and what they have learnt. the students are asked to rate their “comfort level” and summarize what they have learnt. you can use this as an activity in class or let the students complete the log at home. throughout the book we offer different assessment tools and we recommend that you try as many of them as possible. learner logs and other similar assessment tools are simple to use and have a positive effect on the students’ learning and learning habits over time. the students may find it difficult to answer the questions at first, but if you use the log consistently it will help the students pay more attention to their learning strategies and set better goals. once the students are used to the format and expectations, you can use the learner log and other assessment activities in combination with discussion and goal-setting activities.
step 4. post -integrating skills
ask the students to read the e-mail ads in unit 1 and choose one to reply to. before the students start writing, they should think about what they want to write.
extension use real e-pal ads from the internet and let the students find a real e-pal from another country. if your students do not have easy access to the internet, you can simply copy more e-pal ads and bring them to class.
sample e-mail
hi jane:
my name is xiao fei and i come from hunan. hunan is in the south of china. i am a middle school student and i like speaking english. i read your e-pal ad and i would like to be your e-pal. you wrote that you like rock music. can you tell me what bands you like? have you ever heard any chinese rock bands? you also wrote that you like talking and joking around. i do too! i think you and i can be good friends. please send me an e-mail as soon as possible.
xiao fei
assessment criteria:
an e-mail is less formal than a letter and more formal than speaking. a good response to the e-pal ads should include information about who you are and where you are from. try to encourage the students to use indirect speech to refer to the e-pal ad.
step 5. homework
(1) finish off the exercises in the workbook.
(2)write an email into my email-box.
summary the key points in this unit
evaluation of teaching:
the fifth period students have an integrating examination
the sixth period teachers comment the examination and review the unit.
