外研版高中英语必修四备课Module 4 Great Scientists素材传奇人物

传奇人物----霍金斯蒂芬·威廉·霍金,1942年1月8日出生,曾先后毕业于牛津大学和剑桥大学三一学院,并获剑桥大学哲学博士学位。

在大学学习后期,开始患“肌肉萎缩性脊髓侧索硬化症”(运动神经元疾病),半身不遂。

他克服身患残疾的种种困难,于1965年进入剑桥大学冈维尔和凯厄斯学院任研究员。

这个时期,他在研究宇宙起源问题上,创立了宇宙之始是“无限密度的一点”的著名理论。

1969年起任冈维尔和凯厄斯学院科学杰出成就研究员。

1972-1975年先后在剑桥大学天文研究所、应用数学和理论物理学部进行研究工作,1975-1977年任重力物理学高级讲师,1977-1979年任教授,1979年起任卢卡斯讲座数学教授。

其间,1974年当选为皇家学会最年轻的会员。

1974-1975年为美国加利福尼亚理工学院费尔柴尔德讲座功勋学者。

1978年获世界理论物理研究的最高奖爱因斯坦奖。

霍金的成名始于对黑洞的研究成果。

在爱因斯坦之后融合了20世纪另一个伟大理论──量子理论,他认为,宇宙是有限的,但无法找到边际,这如同地球表面有限但无法找到边际一样;时间也是有开始的,大约始于150亿到200亿年前。

1988年获沃尔夫物理学奖。

1985年霍金丧失语言能力,表达思想唯一的工具是一台电脑声音合成器。

他用仅能活动的几个手指操纵一个特制的鼠标器在电脑屏幕上选择字母、单词来造句,然后通过电脑播放声音,通常制造一个句子要5、6分钟,为了合成一个小时的录音演讲要准备10天。

1988年写成科普著作《时间简史》,至1995年10月该书发行量已超过2500万册,译成几十种语言,中译本也已出版。

著有《空间-时间的大比例结构》(1973年与人合著)、《广义相对论:爱因斯坦百年评论》(1979年与人合编)、《超空间和超重力》(1981年与人合编)、《宇宙之始》(1983年与人合编)、《时间简史》(1988年)。

1990年与结婚25年之久的妻子简·怀尔德离婚。

外研版英语必修4 Module4 Great Scientists--Reading

Module 4 Great ScientistsPart One Teaching DesignPeriod 1Reading—The Student Who Asked Questions■Goals●To learn to read passages with the passive voice andby+-ing about great scientists●To learn to read with strategies■ProceduresStep 1: Warming up by defining sciencesBiochemistry: A branch of chemistry studying the chemicalbehavior in living beings. Biochemistry is not onlyinterested in the individual chemical ponents but also their vital interplay.Biology: the science that deals with living things. It is broadly divided into zoology, the study of animal life, and botany, the study of plant life. Subdivisions of each of these sciences include cytology (the study of cells), histology (the study of tissues), anatomy or morphology, physiology, and embryology (the study of the embryonic development of an individual animal or plant). Also included in biological studies are the sciences of genetics, evolution, paleontology, and taxonomy or systematic, the study of classification.Botany: the scientific study of plant life. As a branch of biology, it is also sometimes referred to as plant science(s) or plant biology. Botany covers a wide range of scientific disciplines that study the growth, reproduction, metabolism, development, diseases, and evolution of plants.Genetics: scientific study of the mechanism of heredity. While Gregor Mendel first presented his findings on the statistical laws governing the transmission of certain traits from generation to generation in 1856, it was not until the discovery and detailed study of the chromosome and the gene in the 20th cent that scientists found the physical basis of hereditary characteristics. Zoology: The original branches of zoology established in the late 19th century such as zoo-physics, bionomics have largely been subsumed into more broad areas of biology which include studies of mechanisms mon to both plants and animals.Chemistry: the science of matter and its interactions with energy and itself (see physics, biology). Because of the diversity of matter, which is mostly in the form of atoms, chemists often study how atoms interact to form molecules and how molecules(分子) interact with each other.Physics: the science of Nature in the broadest sense. Physicists study the behavior and properties of matter in a wide variety of contexts, ranging from the sub-nuclear particles from which all ordinary matter is made (particle physics) to the behavior of the material Universe as a whole (cosmology宇宙论).Step 2: Before you readPlease go over the word list for this module, paying attention to the pronunciation of the word, the relationship between its pronunciation and its spelling.Step 3: While you read3. plete the article with one word in each blankThe Chinese scientist, Yuan Longping, is a _1_ figure in the rice-growing world.

能根据关键词写出伟大科学家的事迹,并能够准备出一位著名科学家的传记。

1.1 INTRODUCTION以四幅著名科学家的肖像画引导学生就本模块话题展开讨论,通过学生的讨论,激发学生对本模块的中心话题产生兴趣;但第一、三幅,特别是第三幅人物肖像辨认难度较大,老师可引导学生从二、四幅开始由易到难讨论,必要时可给出人物的相关信息让学生依据获取信息去判断,推测。

V ocabulary是根据英文释意在语境中掌握和运用词汇、术语。

1.2 READING AND VOCABULARY 此部分描写了“杂交水稻之父”袁隆平的生平和主要事迹,并阐述了他从事这项工作的重要性和所取得的成就:缓解了中国在内的很多国家的饥饿问题,培育出了高产、周期短等优点的杂交水稻,是人类农业史上非常有意义的重大突破。

Module 4Great Scientists【美文阅读】What makes a person a scientist? Does he have ways or tools oflearning that are different from those of others? The answer is“no”.It isn't thetools a scientist uses but how he uses these tools that make him a scientist.Youwill probably agree that knowing how to use a power is important to acarpenter.You will probably agree,too,that knowing how to investigate,how todiscover information,is important to everyone.The scientist,however,goes onestep further;he must be sure that he has a reasonable answer to his question andthat his answers he gets to many questions are into a large set of ideas abouthow the world works.The scientist's knowledge must be exact.There's no room for half right orright just half the time.He must be as nearly right as the conditions permit.What works under one set of conditions at one time must work under the same conditions at other times.If the conditions are different,any changes the scientist observes in a demonstration must be explained by the changes in the conditions.This is one reason why investigations are important in science.Albert Einstein,who developed the Theory of Relativity,arrived at this theory through mathematics.The accuracy of his mathematics was later tested through investigation.Einstein's ideas were proved to be correct.A scientist uses many tools for measurements.Then the measurements are used to make mathematical calculations that may test his investigations.【诱思导学】Can you list some great scientists? What can you learn from her or him?【答案】略Period ⅠPreviewing(教师用书独具)●教学目标本课时主要是通过学生对学案所给出的内容的学习,了解本课文中所出现的词汇,初步了解课文以及相关的背景知识,对下一堂课对课文的全面理解起到一个铺垫作用。
