His mathematical calculations led to the same conclusion: that the earth was not the center of solar system.A2. He could not tell anyone about his theory as the powerful Christian Church would have punished him for even suggesting such an idea.A3. They believed God had made the world and for that reason the earth was special and must be the center of the solar system.A4. In 1515 he showed it privately to his friends.A5. His friends were enthusiastic and encouraged him to publish his ideas.A6. He did not want to be attacked by the Christian Church, so he only published it as he lay dying in 1543.A7. Now people can see that there is a direct link between his ideas and the work of Isaac Newton, Albert Einstein and Stephen Hawking.2. Group workDivide Ss into three groups and discuss the following question. Ask every group to present their ideas.If you were Nicolaus Copernicus, would you have hidden your theory for so many years? Why? Step 3. WritingPurpose: To learn to write a persuasive essay.Write a short letter asking Copernicus to publish his ideas so that everyone can read them.First you need to collect your ideas. For example:●He believes his new theory is true.●There are problems with the present theory.●He has done many years of observations to prove his new theory is true.●Science can not develop unless people publish their ideas.●Time will show if his theory is true of now.Here is a plan:Beginning: Tell Copernicus who you are and why you want him to publish his ideas. Paragraph 1: Reason 1 and evidence.Paragraph 2: Reason 2 and evidence.Summing up: Ask him to think again about publishing his ideas.One Possible version:Dear Nicolaus Copernicus,I am a student studying astronomy and I would very much like to read your new theory about 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 center 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 you worry 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,***Step 4. ExtensionPurpose: To deepen what we have learned in the Writing part.Let us compare a persuasive essay with a report, a description and a creative piece and then findStep 5.

PracticeUse the correct form of the words to fill in the blanks.StepⅣWarming up (Group competition and introduce the great scientists)1. Check the answers to the quiz to find out which group knows the most.2. Introduce the great scientists.1) Archimedes (287—212 BC) Ancient Greek. He was a mathematician. He found that if you put an object into water the water pushes the object up. It rises and partly floats.“Give me a place to stand on, and I can move the earth.” ----Archimedes2) Charlie Darwin (1808-1882) British naturalist. The Origin of Species was published in 1859. It explained how plants and animals had changed over time to fit in with a changing environment. His book showed thatpeople had developed from apes.3) Thomas Newcomen, British (1663-1729) He improved the first steam pump built by Thomas Savery in 1697 and turned it into a steam engine for taking water out of mines in1712.James Watt improved it still further in the 1770s turning it into the first modern steam engine used on the railways.4) Gregor Mendel (1822—1884) Czech. The father of genetic. He grew pea plants and developed ideas on heredity (遗传) and inherited characteristics. Between 1856—1863 he grew 28,000 pea plants. He examined seven kinds of seed and plant characteristics and developed some laws of inheritance.5) Marie Curie (Polish) (1867-1934) was born in Poland, moved to Paris and studied chemistry and physics there. She married Pierre Curie and together they studied radioactive materials and discovered radium. In 1911 she received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry. Her death in 1934 was almost certainly due to radiation in her work.6) Thomas Edison (1847----1931) He was already an inventor of other electrical devices (phonograph, electric light bulb) when in 1882 he designed a system for providing New York with electricity from a central power station. This was a tremendous achievement, which had previously been thought impossible.7) Leonardo da Vinci (Italian) (1452-1519) He was a famous Italian artist whose skills for showing human skin tones made his paintings seem to come alive. He used to study dead people in order to make his paintings as accurate as possible. Some of his famous paintings include “The Adoration of the Magi”and the “The Last Supper”. Later in his life he lived in France where he designed a submarine (潜水艇) and a flying machine.8) British. He did research into different gases and discovered the medical value of nitrous oxide (laughing gas) as an anesthetic (麻醉药). In 1815 he developed a safety lamp for miners.9) Zhang Heng, Chinese (78---139) He invented the first seismograph to indicate in the direction of an earthquake. It was in the shape of a cylinder with eight dragonheads round the top, each with a ball in its mouth. Around the bottom were eight frogs directly under a dragon’s head. When an earthquake occurred, a ball fell out of the dragon’s mouth, making a noise.10) Stephen Hawking, British (1942--- ) He has worked in astronomy and studied black holes in space. He has shown that black holes do not only absorb everything around them but, from time to time, throw out matter as well. This may mark the beginning of new galaxies. This is an advance on the old theory which said that black holes “eat”everything they come across. StepⅤPre-reading1. (Pair work) What five most important qualities do you think a scientist should have? Give reasons.clever/talented strict patient creative determined/strong-willed positive honest energetic intelligent/hard-working ambitious careful co-operative confident brave2.

高二英语必修五Unit 1课文翻译Unit 1 Great scientistsReadingJOHH SHOW DEFEATS “KING CHOLERA”约翰·斯洛击败“霍乱王John Snow was a famous doctor in London - so expert, indeed, that he attended Queen Victoria as her personal physician. But he became inspired when he thought about helping ordinary people exposed to cholera. This was the deadly disease of its day. Neither its cause nor its cure was understood. So many thousands of terrified people died every time there was an outbreak. John Snow wanted to face the challenge and solve this problem. He knew that cholera would never be controlled until its cause was found.约翰·斯洛是伦敦一位著名的医生——他的确医术精湛,因而成为照料维多利亚女王的私人医生。
但他一想到要帮助那些得了霍乱的普通百姓时,他就感到很振奋。
霍乱在当时是最致命的疾病,人们既不知道它的病源,也不了解它的治疗方法。
每次霍乱暴发时,就有大批惊恐的老百姓死去。
约翰·斯洛想面对这个挑战,解决这个问题。
他知道,在找到病源之前,霍乱疫情是无法控制的。
He became interested in two theories that possibly explained how cholera killed people. The first suggested that choleramultiplied in the air. A cloud of dangerous gas floated around until it found its victims. The second suggested that people absorbed this disease into their bodies with their meals. From the stomach the disease quickly attacked the body and soon the affected person died.斯洛对霍乱致人死地的两种推测都很感兴趣。
