Unit 16 Stories Warm-up Tapescript 1 It was a dark and foggy night. We drove and drove. At midnight, just as we thought we were lost, we saw a light behind some trees. As we got nearer, we could see a house. It looked abandoned. We knocked on the heavy door. It opened slowly. A tall man dressed entirely in black stood there. ―Good evening,‖ he said in a slow, deep voice. ―I've been expecting you.‖ 2 We were travelling through deep space at the speed of light. Suddenly, the spaceship slowed down and immediately the system came into view – a bright star with twenty or more planets. One of these would be our new home, five light years from our own planet. 3 One of my earliest memories is of my father running along the beach with our dog, Tess. I must have been about three years old. I remember the dog jumping up on me and knocking me over into the water. 4 The man lay on the ground next to a white truck. There was no doubt. He was dead. I quickly looked in the pockets of his jacket – some money, a handkerchief and a theatre ticket with a Chicago phone number

全册教案农村小学英语教学与实践活动的研究方案一、问题提出: 随着中国与世界的交往日益密切,英语学习已经成为人们的必须.英语作为一门语言,在学习过程中既要有正规系统的学习渠道,而又要有随时随地都能进行的学习练习及应用场所,以便巩固所学的英语知识,提高英语交际的能力。渤海镇小学现状:：1、渤海镇小学的生源来自于附近行政村，与城里小孩相比会有一定的差别：农村孩子胆小、拘谨、不善言谈，羞于说英语，缺少自信心。 2、渤海镇小学英语师资力量相对薄弱。3. 缺乏运用英语的环境。目前社会上尤其是农村，用英语的环境很少，甚至没有。因此学生听英语、说英语的机会很少，他们缺少一个学习英语的语言环境。但是渤海镇又有自己得天独厚的条件，旅游业比较发达，农家院大量兴起，都是学生进行交际的有利场所。如何根据农村小学的实际情况，有效地把握课堂教学，创设良好的英语学习环境，培养和发展学生使用英语这种交际工具的能力。怎样发挥本地区的优势，使课堂教学与实践活动相结合，培养学生交际意识，提高学生交际能力，所以提出了“农村小学英语教学，与实践活动的研究”课题。二、文献综述三、研究的目的、意义英语教学的目的就是培养和发展学生使用这种交际工具的能力。英语教学新课程的理念是要尽可能多的为学生创设英语交际的环境，尽可能多的让学生以多种形式接触、学习、使用英语。本课题探索充分利用农村的多种资源如旅游业、农家院等，给学生创设英语交际的环境，开展实践活动，培养学生的交际意识、提高他们的交际能力的措施与对策，以供其他农村学校在此方面有所借鉴，共同提高学生的英语水平。四、研究内容 1、英语课堂教学模式。 2、英语教学的课外实践活动。五、研究假设充分利用农村的语言环境，给学生创设英语交际的环境，开展实践活动，就能培养学生的交际意识，提高他们的交际能力。六、研究方法行动研究法七、研究措施 (一)农村小学课堂教学模式 1、3－5分钟谈话训练。利用课堂3分钟时间，可以在课始，可以在课中，也可以在课末，根据实际情况再定。 2、5-10分的复习时间,在复习的过程中要注意孩子们兴趣的培养,多设计一些有趣的活动. 3、新授内容单词教学: 遵循词不离句的原则。以词带句、一句带词，八单词放在句子里学习，在词语和相应的事物之间建立联想，而不是机械的学习，一方面避免了直接教单词的枯燥，另一方面，有帮助学生建立初步的语感，增强了趣味性。

模块3 U7 L1 1 The Spirit of Explorers Viking Voyages to America The Vikings were the first Europeans to reach America. They achieved this long before Columbus ever set sail. The Vikings were a group of people whose ancestors came from Scandinavia. They controlled the seas and coasts of Northern Europe between the 8th and 10th centuries AD. By around 900 AD, there were many places in Northern Europe where the Vikings chose to live. In 982 AD, when a man called Eric the Red decided to set sail further west, there were as many as 10,000 Vikings living in Iceland. According to the old stories of Iceland and Norway, Eric the Red was forced to leave Iceland because he had committed a murder, for which he got into trouble. Eric reached Greenland and discovered that people could live in the place where he landed. He returned to Iceland and told people there about Greenland. He persuaded some people to go back with him to Greenland. Eric set sail once again, this time with 25 ships, of which only 14 made it to Greenland. Not long after Eric the Red had landed in Greenland, a man called Biarni set sail from Iceland in search of Eric's party. Biarni was hoping to join his father who was with Eric, but he was blown off course and found himself in an unknown land, from where he eventually reached Greenland. In the year 1002, when Eric the Red's son Leif was planning a trip further west, Biarni was the man with whom Leif discussed his plans. Leif followed Biarni's directions and sailed to what is believed to be the coast of present-day Canada. He then sailed further south to an island which is now known as Newfoundland. We know about Eric the Red and Leif's deeds through stories which were written down centuries later in Norway and Iceland. They are the first records we have of Europeans sailing to the Americas. U7 L3 3 The Sea World UNDER WATER WORLD The Best place to See Sea Creatures Polar World We have polar bears and a real iceberg too! You can only see a small part of it above the water. It's three times as big underwater. Watch the acrobatic seals at feeding time. Meet our less energetic but more friendly penguins. You'll love them! Ocean Floor See some of the most beautiful coral and the most unusual fish in the world. Watch some fish “flying” through the water. They are less colourful than some other fish but they move beautifully. Sea Theatre See our intelligent dolphins. There are fantastic shows every two hours. Discovery Pool Especially for younger children. They can touch crabs and other smaller creatures. They can be educated about daily life on the beach in this exciting area. Virtual Reality Voyage Our most up-to-date attraction. Come with us on a “virtual reality” trip to the ocean floor and see some of the strangest fish in the world.
