the students to look through the questions on Page 27 and read the text silently.Students are expected to sum up the main ideas by themselves.‎ T：OK，boys and girls.Now let’s read the text in detail and answer the questions on Page 27.‎ Suggested answers：‎ ‎1.Who is hunting and killing the Tibetan antelope?‎ People are hunting and killing the Tibetan antelope.‎ ‎2.Why are we humans part of this problem?‎ People who buy sweaters made with Tibetan wool are encouraging more people to go out and kill the animals.‎ ‎3.How did life improve for the farmers in Zimbabwe?‎ The farmers got money when the government made sure that the tour companies had to pay them to visit and hunt the animals.‎ ‎4.How did it improve for the animals?‎ The animals were no longer killed by the farmers for destroying the crops.‎ ‎5.In what ways does looking after the rain forest help with wildlife protection?‎ Looking after the rain forest helps wildlife protection because it contains many medicines and drugs.‎

times，I guess you have totally understand the text.Now let’s check whether you have comprehended the text.On the blackboard，it’s the ‎ summary of our reading text.But it’s not complete.You have to think out a proper word to fill in each blank without reading your textbook.After filling the missing words，you will have a complete summary of the text.Now，I will give you 5 minutes to do this task.‎ One day，Daisy ______ a strange dream.She flew in a wonderful ______ to ______ with an ______ in Tibet.The antelope told her they were hunted because of their ______ which can be used to make ______ like hers.In three years they may all be ______.Later，she ______ to Zimbabwe where she talked with an ______ and got to know the farmers there no longer ______ them.That’s because the ______ decided to help and the farmers finally made a lot of ______.At last she ______ at the thick rain ______ where a monkey told her “No rain forest，no ______ and no ______.” Although finally everything was ______，she had ______ so much!‎ Suggested answers：‎ dreamed；chair；talk；antelope；fur；sweaters；gone；flew；elephant；hunted；government；money；arrived；forest；animals；drugs；gone；learned Step 6 Language Points Focus Teacher explains the important words and expressions from the reading.Try to use as many examples as possible to illustrate the point.After illustration，teacher can give students some exercise to consolidate their understanding.‎ ‎1.Daisy hurried to get dressed and put on her jeans and sweater.‎ 戴西急忙穿衣服，穿上牛仔裤和毛衣。‎ get dressed 穿上衣服 ‎“get+过去分词”相当于“be+过去分词”，表达被动的意味。但是“get+过去分词”更着重强调动作，动作不能延续，因此不能和表示一段时间的状语连用。而“be+过去分词”着重强调状态，动作可以延续，因此可以和表示一段时间的状语连用。如：‎ They have been married for twenty years.‎ 他们结婚20年了。‎ Her blouse got caught on the nail and a button went off.‎ 她的衬衣被钩在钉子上，一个纽扣掉了下来。‎ ‎2.We are killed for the wool that is taken from under our stomachs.‎ 人们杀死我们以获取我们肚子底下的羊毛。‎ from under our stomachs是“介词from+介词短语”结构。如：‎ He jumped out from behind the door.‎ 他从门后跳出来。‎ Bamboo shoots grow from around the roots.‎ 从根部周围生长出竹子嫩芽。‎ A man came out from under the bed.‎ 一个人从床底下（爬）出来。‎ ‎3.The tour companies applied to be allowed to hunt some for a fee，which made a lot of money for the farmers.‎ 旅游公司可以申请交费猎捕，这为农民赚取了许多钱。‎ apply v.‎ ‎（1）make a formal request 请求，申请。如：‎ I want to apply for the job.‎ 我想申请这项工作。‎ ‎（2）make a practical use of sth.运用，应用。如：‎ Scientific discoveries are often applied to industrial production methods.‎ 科学的发明时常应用到工业生产的方法上。‎ ‎（3）bring into nearness or contact with something；put on，upon，or to 敷，涂 A nurse is applying some medicine to his wound.‎ 有个护士正在给他的伤口敷药。‎ ‎（4）devote （oneself or one’s efforts）to something 专心于、致力于某物。如：‎ The new comer applied his mind to the job.‎ 新来的职员工作专心致志。‎ Students should apply themselves to their study.‎ 学生们应该专心致志地学习。‎ ‎4.As a result，farmers like us and no longer hunt us.‎ 因此，农民们喜欢我们就不再猎杀我们了。‎ as a result 结果是；作为结果。如：‎ He had an accident and broke his leg.As a result，he had to stay in bed for three months.‎ 他出了一次事故，断了腿，结果不得不在床上躺了三个月。‎ no longer 不再，再也不 no longer 表示“（时间）不再”时，一般修饰延续性或状态动词，通常位于第一个助动词、系动词、情态动词后，其他动词前。no longer 置于句首，句子使用倒装语序。如：‎ He no longer lives here.‎ 他不再住在这里。‎ Mr Smith no longer works in our company.‎ 史密斯先生不再在我们公司上班。‎ No longer is he studying with us.‎ 他不再和我们一起学习。‎ ‎5.This protects me from mosquitoes.‎ 这保护我防蚊虫叮咬。‎ protect...from...保护……免受……的伤害。如：‎ The sunglasses can protect your eyes from the strong sunlight.‎ 太阳镜能够保护你的眼睛免受强烈太阳光线的伤害。‎ A new material was painted to protect the roof from rain.‎ 涂上一种新材料以保护房屋防雨。‎ Step 7 Discussion ‎ After the explanation of the language points，students have got the total understanding of the reading text.Then teacher draws students’ attention back to the text and put forward a topic for them to discuss.Divide the students into the fourperson groups and give them five minutes to think about the topic “What should we do to protect wildlife?”.After the discussion，let the students have a competition to see which group can think out the most pieces of advice to protect wildlife.‎ The possible advice：‎ ‎1.We should treat the wildlife plants and animals the same as our friends and relatives.‎ ‎2.We shouldn’t cut or kill them freely.‎ ‎3.We should protect the environment around us to let them have enough food and good living conditions.‎ ‎4.We should not buy the luxury such as fur，etc to support the protection campaign.‎ ‎5.We should collect money to protect the endangered animals.‎ ‎6.We can join the WWF to protect the endangered animals with the other protectors all over the world.‎ Step 8 Summary and Homework T：Today we’ve learned a text about Daisy’s experience in Tibet，Zimbabwe and the rain forest.She has met three animals，the antelope，the elephant and the monkey.Through Daisy’s talk with them，we know the serious problems are facing them.They need help badly.They are our humans’ friends.We are living in the same planet.Now it’s time for us to take action of a better living planet.We have to try our best to protect their living environment，their food supply and them.Every one of us is obliged to stop hunting and killing them.Let’s live in harmony with them.‎ T：So much for today.Here is the homework for you to do so that your knowledge can be consolidated.‎ ‎1.Recite the key sentences on the text.‎ ‎2.Finish the word exercise.Ex.1，2，3

dinosaurs and Milu deer and dodos，so now I will ask some of you to have a try.Any volunteers?‎ S1：Dinosaurs lived on the earth long before humans came into being.There were many different species of them，of which a rare new one was able to run as well as climb.The reasons for their dying out are not sure.Maybe because of a large rock or due to the hot weather.‎ S2：Dodos lived on the earth long long ago.They lived on an island called Mauritius.They were curious and kindhearted and quite different from most of the animals there.They were birds，but they were large and only had small wings.Their favorite activity was to wander along the beach and wait till the insects were ready to be eaten.‎ S3：Milu deer used to be common in China.They lived together and lived on grass.But as a result of hunting，they disappeared from China later.Luckily，some were taken to Britain before that.So Chinese government can bring back some.Now there are more and more Milu deer in China.‎ T：Everyone has done a very good job!‎ Step 2 Brainstorming about tones in spoken English ‎（Teacher asks two students to answer two easy questions，then express gratitude using different tones.One is ”Thank you↘”.The other is “Thank you↗.” ）‎ T：Well，just now I said “Thank you”，do you find some differences?‎ Ss：You use different tones.‎ T：Good.In the first one，the falling tone shows that I am very grateful.But in the second one，the rising tone means that is what the S should do and I was not really grateful.‎ T：In spoken English，tones are used to express different feelings.To understand how the speaker is feeling，listen for four main things：‎ the volume of the language a rising or falling tone ‎ stress on certain words pauses in the sentences Step 3 Listening for general idea T：OK，now we are going to listen to the story about another animal named dodo.‎ Please have a look at the picture on P31.What does it look like?‎ Ss：It looks like a duck.It’s very large.‎ T：What about its wings?Are they very large too? ‎ Ss：No，its wings are very small.‎ T：Can it fly high in the sky easily?‎ S1：I don’t think it can easily fly high in the sky.‎ T：Do you agree with her?‎ Ss：Yes.‎ T：So what might be its problem?‎ S2：It can only walk on land.And when there is an animal attacking it，it can’t escape.‎ T：You might be right.Let’s listen and see.As for the first time，you don’t have to understand every word.You can ignore what you don’t understand and concentrate on what you can understand.Now please open your books and turn to Page 30 to go through the Ex.2 and try to predict what might happen to dodo.‎ ‎（Two minutes later）‎ T：What happened to dodo?‎ Ss：It disappeared.‎ T：Right.‎ Check the answers to Ex.2 and get some Ss to tell the mistakes in the other choices.‎ Step 4 Listen for detailed information Get the Ss to listen to the tape again and fill in the blanks.‎ Once upon a time I lived on the earth too.I was called “dodo”.My home was an ______ called Mauritius.I was ______ and ______ and quite ______from most of the animals there.I liked to make friends with the other animals and never ______.I have no enemies.‎ We were birds too，but we were large and only had small ______.My

answers：island，curious，kind-hearted，different，quarreled，wings，wander）and Ex.1 （CDBC）.Get them to tell the reasons for their choices.‎ Step 5 Further Practice T：After we learn the story about the dodo，we shall again know the importance of protecting our environment.In fact to protect our earth is to protect ourselves.‎ Next we shall listen to one more story about human beings and their environment.Please turn to P62.Listen for the first time and get the general idea.‎ ‎（After listening for the first time）‎ T：What is the main idea of the story，do you think?‎ S1：It’s about how a farmer improved his empty land and made his farm more beautiful.‎ T：Good job.‎ Get the Ss to listen for the second time and try to finish Ex.1 on P62.‎ ‎（After the Ss’ listening for the second time）‎ Get them to discuss the answers in groups of four and then check the answers together.‎ At last listen to the tape for the last time to check the answers.‎ Listen for the third time and finish Ex.1. ‎ Step 6 Summary and Homework ‎ T：In this class，we have learned the importance of tones in spoken English，how to find out the general idea and the detailed information.After class，you should go on listening to more materials and try all efforts to make your ears sharp.That’s all for this class.Class is over.‎ Homework：Surf the internet to find more information about the endangered animals in China and think of some ways to protect them.‎ Step 7 The Design of the Writing on the Blackboard Unit 4 Wildlife protection ‎ Period 4‎ Listen for the general idea Listen for detailed information
