The Fourth Period●从容说课This is the fourth period of this unit.The teacher will first check the homework exercises.Since the present continuous tense for future use is not very difficult for the students，the teacher just offers the students the answers to the exercises in Part 1 on Page 57 and leaves Part 2 on Page 58 out.To get Ss a complete idea about the trip along the Mekong，the teacher will first check the homework exercise on Page 19.To show Ss Wang Kung’s and Wang Wei’s similar and different attitudes about the trip clearly，the teacher can designed a chart.This task is designed to develop Ss’ ability of reading between the lines as well as that of summarizing the text.After talking about the attitudes，the teacher can lead in Part 2 of this unit naturally by asking two questions：1.How does Wang Kung feel about the trip now？2.What do you think has changed his attitude？Then the teacher asks Ss to go through the passage quickly and find out the answers.Before the second reading，the teacher first can ask Ss how a travel journal is organized：（What can they write about when writing a travel journal？then write down their answers on the blackboard：see，hear，eat，wear，feel，do），finally ask them to list these things.These activities not only reminds Ss to read a passage as a whole，but also get them into the habit of reading a passage between the lines.Only in this way can they understand the writer’s implied meaning as well as enjoying the pleasure of reading.To make the students aware of the safety of a trip and to make sure that it is a safe and pleasant tri p，the teacher asks them to hold a discussion about what to do before starting a trip and then ask two of them to work together and write a short dialogue after class.The first task tells Ss to value their lives while the second task gives them a chance to practise writing.●三维目标1.Knowledge：（1）Learn to read between the lines and know Wang Kung’s and Wang Wei’s different and similar attitudes toward the trip along the Mekong.（2）Understand the second part of Journey Down the Mekong.2.Ability：（1）Learn how to read and organize a travel journal.（2）Get to know what to do before a trip.3.Emotion：（1）Develop Ss’ sense of group cooperation.（2）Get Ss to know the value of life and the importance to protect nature.●教学重点（1）How to read and organize a travel journal.（2）What to do before a trip.●教学难点（1）How to get the implied meanings of an passage.（2）How to read and organize a travel journal.●教具准备Multi-media classroom and other normal teaching tools.●教学过程Step 1 GreetingStep 2 RevisionT：First，I’ll ask some of you to give the answers to the exercises in Part 1 on Page 57.Suggested answers：are going/will go/am going to stay/will stay/am stayingis going to fly/will fly/is flyingis going to take/will take/is taking；leavesis giving；is sayingam comingare；going；are；gettingbought；will buy/are going to buy；met；will meet/are meeting/are going to meetStep 3 Lead inT：Here is good news.Your favorite singer Jay will give performances in Wuxi Stadium.But tomorrow you will take an English exam.What will you do？S1：Forget the exam and enjoy the concert first.S2：Forget the concert.Get well prepared for the exam.I can enjoy another concert of his some day.S3：...S4：...T：So we can see different students have different ideas，or different students hold different attitudes.（Write “hold a...attitude”on the blackboard）.Do you know what an attitude is？S：An attitude is what a person thinks about something.T：Yes，usually different people hold different attitudes.Let’s turn back to Part O ne of this unit and make a comparison between Wang Kung’s and Wang Wei’s attitudes toward the trip along the Mekong.similarity difference1.

illness；you may have to be flown home if there is a serious incident.Taking out can cover all these risks and more.Purchasing insurance for a few pounds is going to give you and your family peace of mind.2.The Ten EssentialsBy GORP Hiking Expert Karen BergerIn the 1930s，the Mountaineers，a Seattle-based hiking，climbing，and conservation organization，came up with a list of 10 essential items that no climber should be without.Map.A map not only tells you where you are and how far you have to go，it can help you find campsites，water，and an emergency exit route in case of an accident.Compass.A compass can help you find your way through unfamiliar terrain—especially in bad weather where you can’t see the landmarks.Water and a way to purify it.Without enough water，your body’s muscles and organs simply can’t perform as well：You’ll be susceptible to hypothermia and altitude sickness，not to mention the abject misery of raging thirst.Extra Food.Any number of things could keep you out longer than expected：a lengthy detour，getting lost，an injury，difficult terrain.A few ounces of extra food will help keep up energy and morale.Rain Gear and extra clothing.Because the weatherman is not always right.Especially above treeline，bring along extra layers.Two rules：Avoid cotton （it keeps moisture close to your skin），and always carry a hat.Firestarter and matches.The warmth of a fire and a hot drink can help prevent an encounter with hypothermia.And fires are a great way to signal for help if you get lost.First aid kit.Prepackaged first aid kits for hikers are available at outfitters.Double your effectiveness with knowledge：Take a basic first aid class with the A merican Red Cross or a Wilderness First Aid class，offered by many hiking organizations.Army knife or multi-purpose tool.These enable you to cut strips of cloth into bandages，remove splinters，fix broken eyeglasses，and perform a whole host of repairs on malfunctioning gear—not to mention cut cheese and open cans.Flashlight and extra bulbs.For finding your way in the dark and signaling for help.Sun screen and sun glasses.E specially above treeline when there is a skin-scorching combination of sun and snow，you’ll need sunglasses to prevent snowblindness，and sunscreen to prevent sunburn.。
