新印象派：在印象派发展的时候，法 国又出现的新的用色方法，以修拉为 代表的“点彩派”。 新印象派的画家，在创作时不仅应用 光线的分析和视觉的生理特征，以达 到最高纯度和新鲜的色调，造成明亮 辉映的画面。而且，在画面上更进一 步表现明朗的秩序观念。
后印象派：美术史家把印象派之 后出现的几位风格迥异的天才画 家统称为“后印象派”，他们更 集中突出的表现颜色与光影的变 化。代表画家有：梵高，高更， 塞尚
• 乔托创作的动人之作当推《犹大之吻》。这是《圣 经》中一个有名的故事：一年一度的逾越节到来了。 耶稣的门徒加略大人犹大同敌人勾结，得倒30块银 币的赏钱。答应通风报信，抓捕耶稣。在逾越节晚 上，耶稣同12门徒共进晚餐。席间，耶稣指出，你 们中间有人出卖我。犹大听了十分惊恐，提前离席 溜出去送情报。不久，这个叛徒领来一队兵丁。还 有祭司长和法利赛人（犹太人中的文士和律法师） 的差役。他们打着灯笼、火把，带着武器，冲进了 客西马尼园。犹大走在前头，直奔耶稣，按约好的 逮捕暗号，上前与耶稣亲吻。耶稣当场点破了犹太 这一诡计。耶稣的门徒见状大惊。门徒彼得纵身上 前，抽刀便砍。门徒约翰当场砍掉了大祭司的仆人 马勒古的右耳朵。
保罗· 塞尚（Paul Cézanne，1839—1906）， 法国著名画家，是后期印象派的主将，从19世纪末 便被推崇为“新艺术之父”，作为现代艺术的先驱， 西方现代画家称他为“现代艺术之父”或“现代绘 画之父”。他对物体体积感的追求和表现，为“立 体派”开启了不少思路，其独特的主观色彩大大区 别于强调客观色彩感觉的大部分画家。
• 印象主义的以粗放的笔法做画，作品缺乏 修饰，是一种外表草率的画法。印象主义 采取在户外阳光下直接描绘景物，追求光 色变化中。表现对象的整体感和气氛的创 作方法，主张根据太阳光谱所呈现的赤橙 黄绿青蓝紫七种颜色去反映自然界的瞬间 印象，印象主义的作品选择的题材面比较 广泛，无论是在城市或是在乡村，画家都 试图捕捉到瞬息多变的大自然。

Ability goals 能力目标Enable the students to learn about the powerful natural force — volcano and the work of an volcanologist.3. Learning ability goals 学能目标Help the students learn how to analyze the way the writer describes his exciting job.Teaching important points 教学重点Read the text and answer the questions in Comprehending Exercise 2.Teaching difficult points 教学难点Retell the writer’s first sight of Mount Kilauea eruption.Teaching methods 教学方法Discussion, reading, speaking and cooperative learning.Teaching aids 教具准备A projector and some slides.Teaching procedures && ways 教学过程与方式Step ⅠWarming UpLead the students to the topic by telling them a story. Then get the students to describe a volcano eruption according to the diagram. After they are familiar with the topic, let them list some other powerful natural forcesand discuss the ways human beings protect themselves from the natural forces.T: Listen to me carefully. I will tell you a story about a strange city. The strange city named Pompeii is a dead city. No one has lived there for nearly two thousand years, yet every year thousands of people travel from distant countries to visit it. It died suddenly in a terrible rain of fire and ash. Tons of hot ash fell on Pompeii, hiding it from sight. For three days the sun didn’t break through the clouds of ash in the sk y. Then the whole city shook and buildings fell down. When everything was calm, Pompeii was buried deep. A city disappeared and people there lost their lives too. Can you guess what had happened to the city?S1: There must have been a terrible earthquake. After the terrible quake, everything was destroyed.T: Yes. It’s one kind of the causes. Any different ideas?S2: Maybe a volcano erupted and a terrible rain of fire and ash fell on the city.T: You got it! Mount Vesuvius, which had slept quietly for centuries, erupted suddenly. It destroyed the city Pompeii. How terrible! Have you ever seen a volcano erupting? Please turn to page 33. Look at the diagram. Describe a volcano erupting using the diagram and the given words.S3: When boiling rock erupts from the volcano, the red hot lava rushes hundreds of metres into the air and a cloud of ash goes straight up into the air. Ash cloud forms. Rocks, fire, ash fall onto the ground. The lava flows slowly down the mountain. It buries everything in its path under the molten rock.S4: Sometimes, volcano erupting can cause some other disasters like earthquakes, fire and ground sea.T: How powerful the nature is! The lava can buries everything in its path. A volcano erupting can damage a city. A flood can carry everything in its path, while a fire will damage everything it meets. It seems that we human beings are powerless in front of these natural forces. What can we do to protect ourselves from powerful natural forces? Please work in groups of four to list some other natural forces and discuss the ways that human beings protect ourselves.A few minutes later.T: Who would like to share your opinion with the class?S5: I’d like to talk about volcano. Sometimes, the volcano gives warnings in the form of many small earthq uakes. And scientists can provide warnings of possible volcano explosions with the help of equipment. So the government can help people who live near the volcano leave their homes before erupting.S6: We are more familiar with fire. In fact, it can be avoided most of the time, if we are careful in our daily life. I know a way of controlling the fire. Firefighters burn the trees which are in the path of the fire, so there is nothing to burn when the fire arrives.S7: Flood always happens in the south of our country. Predication is very important. Scientist keep observing thelevel of the water during the summer. People strengthen the bank and move to higher land.S8: We have learned more about earthquakes. People have learned many ways to protect themselves. For example, earthquake happens, if you are in bed, stay where you are and protect your head with a pillow. If you are outdoors, find a clear spot away from buildings, trees and streetlights.S9: I think the best way is to move to a safer place where fire, earthquake, flood and hurricane will never happen.Step ⅡPre-readingGet the students to answer the six questions on page 33 to find out whether they will enjoy working as a volcanologist. And then get them to talk about the occupation according to the questions.T: I see. Prediction is very important. We can say scientists play an important part in protecting people from natural forces. Would you like to study volcanoes? And do you want to be a volcanologist?Ss: Yes.T: Let’s test whether you are suitable for this job or not. Answer “yes” or “no” to these que stions on page 33.The students answer the questions to see if they are suitable to be a volcanologist.T: Are you suitable for the job? Who can tell us what kind of person can be a volcanologist?S1: First he must be brave enough because he must climb into a live volcano to take the temperature of the boiling rock inside.S2: I think interest is the most important. He should show great interest in studying rocks and volcanoes.S3: He should be interested in travelling to unusual places and like adventure in his life.S4: If you want to be a volcanologist, you should enjoy working outside because a lot of work need to be done outdoors.Step ⅢWhile-readingScanningGet the students to read the passage quickly and accurately. Give them a couple of minutes to look through the whole passage. Tell them to read the text silently and then ask them some detailed questions about the text.T: What do es a volcanologist do? Is the work interesting? Let’s read a passage written by a volcanologist. The volcanologist enjoys his job very much. He described his exciting job. And he wrote down his first sight of an eruption. Now let’s read the text quickly an d find out the answers to these questions Comprehending Exercise 1 on page 35 .Several minutes later.Check the answer..SkimmingIn this part, the students will read the text quickly to get the general idea of the passage. Check the answers with the whole class, then explain some sentences or words that the students may find hard to understand.T: Now please read the text again and try to get the main idea of the passage in groups of four.Three or four minutes later.T: Have you got the general idea of the text?It wasn’t very easy to walk in these clothes, and we slowly made our way to the edge of the crater and looked down into the red, boiling center. Though I was a little afraid, I wanted to climb down into the crater to collect some lava. But this being my first experience, I could only stayed at the top and watched the two scientists. At that time I determined to be a volcanologist forever.DiscussionT: In the writer’s opinion, his job is the greatest one. Do you like this occupation? Why or why not? Discuss in groups of four.S2: I would not like to be a volcanologist. I prefer to work in an office to do some research work. It’s a waste of time and energy to spend so much time traveling.S3: I hope to be a vocanologist. You’ll be proud of yourse lf when people escape before volcano erupting because of your work. Also, I am interested in the rocks and other things that make up the surface of the earth. I want to know the secret of the earth.S4: It is not my ideal occupation. I like traveling to unusual places, studying different cultures, talking with interesting people and collecting interesting things. But I’m not brave enough to climb into a live volcano to take the temperature of the boiling rock inside.S5: I don’t like this job. It’s too dang erous. If the volcano erupts suddenly when you are collecting the lava, maybe you will lose your life.T: Well, if you meet the writer, what kind of questions would you ask him?S6: Aren’t you afraid when you walk towards the volcano? It’s so hot and the v olcano may erupt again.S7: What should you do if you get lost on your way to the volcano?S8: When did you begin to be interested in volcanoes?S9: How will you escape if the volcano erupts suddenly?S10: Are there any living things in volcanoes?S11: Why do people live near the volcanoes since they may lose their homes or even lives?Writing characteristicsT: Good! If you are interested in this occupation, you can get more information on the Internet. Now who can summarize the writing style and techniques of this text?The teacher can ask the students to have a discussion in pairs or groups, and then ask some of them to show their ideas.Sample answers:This passage was written by a volcanologist. He uses the first person to describe his exciting job and his experience and express his true love for his job. The words are vivid and the description is natural, which makes the readers feel as if they were watching the volcano eruption and begin to like the occupation. For example, he uses “like a railway train passing outside my window”, “suddenly my bedroom became as bright as day” and “red hot lava was fountaining hundreds of metres into the sky” to describe the big noise and fantastic sight of volcano eruption. To tell readers that his job is intere sting, the writer uses several “sometimes”, which makes the readers feel the job is extremely interesting and want to be a vocanologist. The writer talks about the volcano objectively. He points out the damages of volcano but he praises its fantastic sight at the same time.T: What can we learn from the text?S: The key word of the text is “exciting”, which is the focus of the passage. By telling the readers his everyday work, the importance of his job, his first sight of volcano eruption and his sincere love for his job, the author proves it’s his chief enjoyment to be a volcanologist. And I appreciate the writer’s attitude towards nature. We should love nature and we can do something to minimize the damage caused by natural forces.Step ⅤHomeworkT: No w it’s time for homework. Today you have two tasks to finish after class. The first task is to finish exercises in Discovering useful words and expressions on page 35. These exercises will help you practice the words and expressions we’ve just learned. The second one is to retell the text. That’s all for today. See you tomorrow.。

选修6 Unit 1 Art-ReadingA SHORT HISTORY OF WESTERN PAINTINGArt is influenced by the customs and faith of a people. Styles in Western art have changed many times. As there are so many different styles of Western art, it would be impossible to describe all of them in such a short text. Consequently, this text will describe only the most important ones, starting from the sixth century AD.The Middle Ages (5th to the 15th century AD)During the Middle Ages, the main aim of painters was to represent religious themes. A conventional artist of this period was not interested in showing nature and people as they really were. A typical picture at this time was full of religious symbols, which created feeling of respect and love for God. But it was evident that ideas were changing in the 13th century when painters like Giotto di Bondone began to paint religious scenes in a more realistic way.The Renaissance (15th to 16th century)During the Renaissance, new ideas and values graduallv replaced those held in the Middle Ages.People began to concentrate less on religious themes and adopt a more humanistic attitude to life. At the same time painters returned to classical Roman and Greek ideas about art. They tried to paint people and nature as they really were. Rich people wanted to possess t heir own paintings, so they could decorate their superb palaces and great houses. They paid famous artists to paint pictures of themselves, their houses and possessions as well as their activities and achievements.One of the most important discoveries during this period was how to draw things in perspective. This technique was first used by Masaccio in 1428. When people first saw his paintings, they were convinced that they were looking through a hole in a wall at a real scene. If the roles of perspective had not been discovered, no one would have been able to paint such realistic pictures. By coincidence, oil paints were also developed at this time, which made the colours used in paintings look richer and deeper. Without the new paints and the new technique, we would not be able to see the many great masterpieces for which this period is famous.Impressionism (late 19th to early 20th century)In the late 19th century, Europe changed a great deal. from a mostly agricultural society to a mostly industrial one. Many people moved from the countryside to the new cities. There were many new inventions and social changes. Naturally, these changes also led to new painting styles. Among the painters who broke away from the traditional style of painting were the Impressionists, who lived and worked in Paris.The Impressionists were the first painters to work outdoors. They were eager to show how light and shadow fell on objects at different times of day. However, because natural light changes so quickly, the Impressionists had to paint quickly. Their paintings were not as detailed as those of earlier painters. At first, many people disliked this style of painting and became very angr about it. They said that the painters were careless and their paintings were ridiculous.Modern Art (20th century to today)At the time they were created, the Impressionist paintings were controversial, but today they are accepted as the beginning of what we call "modem art". This is because t he Impressionists encouraged artists to look at their environment in new ways. There are scores of modern art styles, but without the Impressionists, many of these painting styles might not exist. On the one hand, some modem art is abstract; that is, the painter does not attempt to paint objects as we see them with our eyes, but instead concentrates on certain qualities of the object, using colour, line and shape to represent them. On the other hand, some paintings of modern art are so realistic that they look like photographs. These styles are so different. Who can predict what painting styles there will be in the future?THE BEST OF MANHATTAN’S ART GALLERIESThe Frick Collection (5th Avenue and E.70th Street)Many art lovers would rather visit this small art gallery than any other in New York. Henry Clay Frick, a rich New Yorker, died in 1919, leaving his house, furniture and art collection to the American people. Frick had a preference for pre-twentieth century Western paintings, and these are well-represented in this excellent collection. You can also explore Frick's beautiful home and garden which are well worth a Visit.Guggenheim Museum(5th Avenue and 88th Street)This museum owns 5,000 superb modern paintings, sculptures and drawings. These art works are not all displayed at the same time. The exhibition is always changing. It will appeal to those who love Impressionist and Post-Impressionist paintings. The Guggenheim Museum building is also world-famous. When you walk into gallery, you feel as if youwere inside a fragile, white seashell. The best way to see the paintings is to start from the top floor and walk down to the bottom. There are no stairs just a circular path. Themuseum also has an excellent restaurant.Metropolitan Museum of Art (5th Avenue and 82nd Street)The reputation of this museum lies in the variety of its art collection. This covers more than 5,000 years of civilization from many parts of the world, including America, Europe, China, Egypt, other African countries and South America. The museum displays more than just the visual delights of art. It introduces you to ancient ways of living. You can visit an Egyptian temple, a fragrant Ming garden, a typical room in an 18th century French house and many other special exhibitions.Museum of Modern Art (53rd Street, between 5th and 6th Avenues)It is amazing that so many great works of art from the late 19th century tothe 21st century are housed in the same museum. The collection of Western art includes paintings by such famous artists as Monet, Van Gogh, Picasso and Matisse. A few words of warning: the admission price is not cheap and the museum is often very crowded.Whitney Museum of American Art (945 Madison Avenue, near 75th Street)The Whitney holds an excellent collection of contemporary American painting and sculpture. There are no permanent displays in this museum and exhibitions change all the time. Every two years, the Whitney holds a special exhibition of new art by living artists. The museum also shows videos and films by contemporary video artists.选修6 Unit 2 Poems-ReadingA FEW SIMPLE FORMS OF ENGLISH POEMSThere are various reasons why people write poetry. Some poems tell a story or describe something in a way that will give the reader a strong impression. Otherstry to convey certain emotions. Poets use many different forms of poetry to express themselves. In this text, however, we will look at a few of the simpler forms.Some of the first poetry a young child learns in English is nursery rhymes. These rhymes like the one on the right (A) are still a common type of children's poetry. The language is concrete but imaginative, and they delight small children because they rhyme, have strong rhythm and a lot of repetition. The poems may not make sense and even seem contradictory, but they are easy to learn and recite. By playing with the words in nursery rhymes, children learn about language.A Hush, little baby, don't say a word, Papa's going to buy you a mockingbird. Ifthat mockingbird won't sing, Papa's going to buy you a diamond ring. If that diamond ring turns to brass, Papa's going to buy you a looking-glass. If that looking-glass gets broke, Papa's going to buy you a billy-goat. If that billy-goat runs away, Papa's going to buy you another today.One of the simplest kinds of poems are those like B and C that list things. List poems have a flexible line length and repeated phrases which give both a pattern and a rhythm to the poem. Some rhyme (like B) while others do not (like C).B I saw a fish-portal all on fireI saw a fish-pond all on fire,I saw a house bow to a squire,I saw a person twelve-feet high,I saw a cottage in the sky,I saw a balloon made of lead,I saw a coffin drop down dead,I saw two sparrows run a race,I saw two horses making lace,I saw g girl just like a cat,I saw a kitten wear a hat,I saw a man who saw these too,And said though strange they all were true.C Our first football matchWe would have won ...if Jack had scored that goal,if we'd had just a few more minutes,if we had trained harder,if Ben had passed the ball to Joe,if we'd had thousands of fans screaming,if I hadn't taken my eye off the ball,if we hadn't stayed up so late the night before,if we hadn't taken it easy,if we hadn't run out of energy.We would have won ...if we'd been better!Another simple form of poem that students can easily write is the cinquain, a poem made up of five lines. With these, students can convey a strong picture in just a few words. Look at the examples (D and E) on the top of the next page.D Brother Beautiful, athletic Teasing, shouting, laughing Friend and enemy too MineE Summer Sleepy, salty Drying, drooping, dreading Week in, week out EndlessF A fallen blossom Is coming back to the branch. Look, a butterfly!( by Moritake)G Snow having melted, The whole village is brimful Of happy children.(by Issa)Haiku is a Japanese form of poetry that is made up of 17 syllables. It is not a traditional form of English poetry, but is very popular with English writers. It is easyto write and, like the cinquain , can give a clear picture and create a special feeling using the minimum of words. The two haiku poems (F and G) above are translations from the Japanese.H Where she awaits her husband On and on the river flows. Never looking back,Transformed into stone.Day by day upon the mountain top,wind and rain revolve.Should the traveller return,this stone would utter speech.,(by Wang Jian)Did you know that English speakers also enjoy other forms of Asian poetry - Tang poems from China in particular? A lot of Tang poetry has been translated into English. This Tang poem (H) is a translation from the Chinese.With so many different forms of poetry to choose from, students may eventually want to write poems of their own. It is easier than you might think and certainly worth a try!I'VE SAVED THE SUMMERI've saved the summerAnd I give it all to youTo hold on winter morningsWhen the snow is new.I've saved some sunlightIf you should ever needA place away from darknessWhere your mind can feed.And for myself I've kept your smileWhen you were but nineteen,Till you're older you'll not knowWhat brave young smiles can mean.I know no answersTo help you on your wayThe answers lie somewhereAt the bottom of the day.But if you've a need for loveI'll give you all l ownIt might help you down the roadTill you've found your own.(by Rod McKuen)选修6 Unit 3 A healthy life-ReadingADVICE FROM GRANDADDear James,It is a beautiful day here and I am sitting under the big tree at the end of the garden. I have just returned from a long bike ride to an old castle. It seems amazing that at my age I am still fit enough to cycle 20 kilometres in an afternoon. It's my birthday in two weeks time and I'll be 82 years old! I think my long and active life must be due to the healthy life I live.This brings me to the real reason for my letter, my dear grandson. Your mother tells me that you started smoking some time ago and now you are finding it difficult to give it up. Believe me, I know how easy it is to begin smoking and how tough it is to stop. You see, during adolescence I also smoked and became addicted to cigarettes. By the way, did you know that this is because you become addicted in three different ways? First, you can become physically addicted to nicotine, which is one of the hundreds of chemicals in cigarettes. This means that after a while your body becomes accustomed to having nicotine in it. So when the drug leaves your body, you get withdrawal symptoms. I remember feeling bad-tempered and sometimes even in pain. Secondly, you become addicted through habit. As you know, if you do the same thing over and over again, you begin to do it automatically. Lastly, you can become mentally addicted. I believed I was happier and more relaxed after having a cigarette, so I began to think that I could only feel good when I smoked. I was addicted in all three ways, so it was very difficult to quit. But I did finally manage.When I was young, I didn't know much about the harmful effects of smoking. I didn't know, for example, that it could do terrible damage to your heart and lungs or that it was more difficult for smoking couples to become pregnant. I certainly didn't know their babies may have a smaller birth weight or even be abnormal in some way. Neither did I know that my cigarette smoke could affect the health of non-smokers. However, what I did know was that my girlfriend thought I smelt terrible. She said mybreath and clothes smelt, and that the ends of my fingers were turning yellow. She told me that she wouldn't go out with me again unless I stopped! I also noticed that I became breathless quickly, and that I wasn't enjoying sport as much. When I was taken off the school football team because I was unfit, I knew it was time to quit smoking.I am sending you some advice I found on the Internet. It might help you to stop and strengthen your resolve. I do hope so because I want you to live as long and healthy a life as I have.Love fromGrandadReading and discussingBefore you read the poster below, discuss what you know about HIV/AIDS with your classmates. Make a list of words that you might come across in this poster.HIV/AIDS:ARE YOU AT RISK?HIV is a virus. A virus is a very small living thing that causes disease. There are many different viruses, for example, the flu virus or the SARS virus. HIV weakens a person's immune system; that is, the part of the body that fights disease. You can have HIV in your blood for a long time, but eventually HIV will damage your immune system so much that you body can no longer fight disease. This stage of the illness is called AIDS. If you develop AIDS, your chances of survival are very small.HIV is spread through blood or the fluid that the body makes during sex. For a person to become infected, blood or sexual fluid that carries the virus, has to get inside the body through broken skin or by injection. One day scientists will find a cure for HIV/AIDS.Until that happens, you need to protect yourself. Here are some things you can do to make sure you stay safe.If you inject drugs:do not share your needle with anyone else. Blood from another person can stay on or in the needle. If a person has HIV and you use the same needle, you could inject the virus into your own blood.do not share anything else that a person has used while injecting drugs.Blood could have spilt on it.If you have sex with a male or a female:use a condom. This will prevent sexual fluid passing from one person to another.The following statements are NOT true.A person cannot get HIV the first time they have sex.WRONG. If one sexual partner has HIV, the other partner could become infected.You can tell by looking at someone whether or not they have HIV.WRONG. Many people carrying HIV look perfectly healthy. It is only when the disease has progressed to AIDS that a person begins to look sick.Only homosexuals get AIDS.WRONG. Anyone who has sex with a person infected with H1V/AIDS risks getting the virus. Women are slightly more likely to become infected than men.If you hug, touch or kiss someone with AIDS or visit them in their home, you will get HIV/AIDS.WRONG.You can only get the disease from blood or sexual fluid.Unfortunately, people with HIV sometimes lose their friends because of prejudice.Many people are afraid that they will get HIV/AIDS from those infected with HIV!AIDS. For the same reason, some AIDS patients cannot find anyone to look after them when they are sick.You can get HIV/AIDS from mosquitoes.WRONG. There is no evidence of this.选修6 Unit 4 Global warming-ReadingTHE EARTH IS BECOMING WARMER-BUT DOES IT MATTER?During the 20th century the temperature of the earth rose about one degree Fahrenheit. That probably does not seem much to you or me, but it is a rapid increase when compared to other natural changes. S o how has this come about and does it matter? Earth Care’s Sophie Armstrong explores these questions.There is no doubt that the earth is becoming warmer (see Graph 1) and that it is human activitythat has caused this global warming rather than a random but natural phenomenon.All scientists subscribe to the view that the increase in the earth's temperature is due to the burning of fossil fuels like coal, natural gas and oil to produce energy. Some byproducts of this process a re called "greenhouse" gases, t he most important one of which is carbon dioxide. Dr Janice Foster explains: "There is a natural phenomenon that scientists call the 'greenhouse effect'. This is when small amounts of gases in the atmosphere, like carbon dioxide, methane and water vapour, trap heat from the sun and therefore warm the earth. Without the 'greenhouse effect', the earth would be about thirty-three degrees Celsius cooler than it is. So, we need those gases. The problem begins when we add huge quantities of extra carbon dioxide into theatmosphere. I t means that more heat energy tends to be trapped in the atmosphere causing the global temperature to go up."We know that the levels of carbon dioxide have increased greatly over the last 100 to 150 years. It was a scientist called Charles Keeling, who made accurate measurements of the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere from 1957 to 1997. He found that between these years the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere went up from around 315 parts to around 370 parts per million(see Graph 2).All scientists accept this data. They also agree that it is the burning of more and more fossilfuels that has resulted in this increase in carbon dioxide. So how high will the temperature increase go? Dr Janice Foster says that over the next 100 years the amount of warming could be as low as 1 to 1.5 degrees Celsius, but it could be as high as 5 degrees.However, the attitude of scientists towards this rise is completely different. On the one hand, Dr Foster thinks that the trend which increases t he temperature by 5 degrees would be a catastrophe. She says, "We can't predict the climate well enough to know what to expect, but it could be very serious." Others who agree with her think there may be a rise of several metres in the sea level, or predict severe storms, floods, droughts, famines, the spread of diseases a nd the disappearance o f species. On the other hand, there are those, like George Hambley, who are opposed to this view, believe that we should not worry about high levels of carbon dioxide in the air. They predict that any warming will be mild with few bad environmental consequences. In fact, Hambley states, "More carbon dioxide is actually a positive thing. It will make plants grow quicker; crops will produce more; it will encourage a greater range of animals - all of which will make life for human beings better."Greenhouse g ases continue to build up in the atmosphere. Even if we start reducing the amount of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse g ases, the climate is going to keep on warming for decades o r centuries. No one knows the effects of global warming. Does that mean we should do nothing? Or, are the risks too great?WHAT CAN WE DO ABOUT GLOBAL WARMING?Dear Earth Care,I am doing a project on behalf of my school about global warming. Sometimes I feel that individuals can have little effect on such huge environmental problems. However, 1 still think people should advocate improvements in the way we use energy today. As I'm not sure where to start with my project, I would appreciate any suggestions you may have.Thank you!Ouyang GuangDear Ouyang Guang,There are many people who have a commitment like yours, but they do not believe they have the power to do anything to improve our environment. That is not true. Together, individuals can make a difference. We do not have to put up with pollution. The growth of the greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide in the air actually comes as a result of many things we do every day. Here are a few suggestions on how to reduce it. They should get you started with your project.1 We use a lot of energy in our houses. It is OK to leave an electrical appliance on so long as you are using it - if not, turn it off! Do not be casual about this. So if you are not using the lights, the TV, the computer, and so on, turn them off. If you are cold, put on more clothes instead of turning up the heat.2 Motor vehicles use a lot of energy- so walk or ride a bike if you can.3 Recycle cans, bottles, plastic bags and newspapers if circumstances allow you to. It takes a lot of energy to make things from new materials, so, if you can, buy things made from recycled materials.4 Get your parents to buy things that are economical with energy - this includes cars as well as smaller things like fridges and microwaves.5 Plant trees in your garden or your school yard, as they absorb carbon dioxide from the air and refresh your spirit when you look at them.6 Finally and most importantly, be an educator. Talk with your family and friends about global warming and tell them what you have learned.Remember - your contribution counts!Earth Care选修6 Unit 5 The power of nature-ReadingAN EXCITING JOBI have the greatest job in the world. I travel to unusual places and work alongside people from all over the world. Sometimes working outdoors, sometimes inan office, sometimes using scientific equipment and sometimes meeting local people and tourists, I am never bored.Although my job is occasionally dangerous, I don't mind because danger excites me and makes me feel alive. However, the most important thing about my job is that I help protect ordinary people from one of the most powerful forces on earth - the volcano.I was appointed as a volcanologist working for the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory (HVO) twenty years ago. My job is collecting information for a database about Mount Kilauea, which is one of the most active volcanoes in Hawaii. Having collected and evaluated the information, I help other scientists to predict where lava from the volcano will flow next and how fast. Our work has saved many lives because people in the path of the lava can be warned to leave their houses. Unfortunately, we cannot move their homes out of the way, and many houses have been covered with lava or burned to the ground.When boiling rock erupts from a volcano and crashes back to earth, it causes less damage than you might imagine. This is because n o one lives near the top of Mount Kilauea, where the rocks fall. The lava that flows slowly like a wave down the mountain causes far more damage because it buries everything in its path under the molten rock. However, the eruption itself is really exciting to watch and I shall never forget my first sight of one. It was in the second week after I arrived in Hawaii. Having worked hard all day, I went to bed early. I was fast asleep when suddenly my bed began shaking and I heard a strange sound, like a railway train passing my window. Having experienced quite a few earthquakes in Hawaii already, I didn't take much notice. I was about to go back to sleep when suddenly my bedroom became as bright as day. I ran out of the house into the back garden where I could see Mount Kilauea in the distance. There had been an eruption from the side of the mountain and red hot lava was fountaining hundreds of metres into the air. It was an absolutely fantastic sight.The day after this eruption I was lucky enough to have a much closer look at it. Two other scientists and I were driven up the mountain and dropped as close as possible to the crater that had been formed during the eruption. Having earlier collected special clothes from the observatory, we put them on before we went any closer. All three of us looked like spacemen.We had white protective suits that covered our whole body, helmets, big boots and special gloves. It was not easy to walk in these suits, but we slowly made our way to the edge of the crater and looked down into the red, boiling centre. The other two climbed down into the crater to collect some lava for later study, but this being my first experience, I stayed at the top and watched them.Today, I am just as enthusiastic about my job as the day I first started. Having studied volcanoes now for many years, I am still amazed at their beauty as well as their potential to cause great damage.THE LRKE OF HERVENChangbaishan i s in Jilin Province, Northeast China.Much of this beautiful, mountainous area is thick forest . Changbaishan is China's largest nature reserve and it is kept in its natural state for the people of China and visitors from all over the worldto enjoy. The height of the land varies from 700 metres above sea level to over 2,000 metres and is home to a great diversity of rare plants and animals. Among the rare animals are cranes, black bears, leopards and tigers. Many people come to Changbaishan t o study its unique plants and animals. Others come to walk in the mountains, to see the spectacular waterfalls or to bathe in the hot water pools. However, the attraction that arouses the greatest appreciation in the reserve is Tianchi or the Lake of Heaven.Tianchi is a deep lake that has formed in the crater of a dead volcano on top of the mountain. The lake is 2,194 metres above sea level, and more than 200 metres deep. In winter the surface freezes over. It takes about an hour to climb from the endof the road to the top of the mountain. When you arrive you are rewarded not onlywith the sight of its clear waters, but also by the view of the other sixteen mountain peaks that surround Tianchi.There are many stories told about Tianchi. The most well-known concerns three young women from heaven. They were bathing in Tainchi when a bird flew above them and dropped a small fruit onto the dress of the youngest girl. When she pickedup the fruit to smell it, it flew into her mouth.Having swallowed the fruit, the girl became pregnant and later gave birth to a handsome boy. It is said that this boy, who had a great gift for languages and persuasion, is the father of the Manchu people.If you are lucky enough to visit the Lake of Heaven with your loved one, don't forget to drop a coin into the clear blue water to guarantee your love will be as deep and lasting as the lake itself.。

According to your understanding, what a healthy life is like? And can you guess what the ten issues are? Work in pairs and have a discussion.After about 3 minutes.T: OK, who would like to present your discussions?S1: Let me try. In our opinion, a healthy life should include two aspects, physical health and mental health. So a person who lacks either is not a healthy person. We think of several issues that may concern people most, they are: food security, medical service problems, AIDS and effects of environmental pollution on health.T: Good points. Other issues concerning people most are: nutrition and health condition, medical emergency treatment, mental illness, false medical ads, medicine security and birth defects. If you are interested in any of these issues, you may search on the Internet for more information. Now turn to page 17, Warming Up. Here is a list of health issues that concern young people the most. Can you think of other issues that are also important? Work with your partners, and try to make the list longer.A sample list:AIDS and infections, parenting, relationships, food and nutrition, family issues, environmental health, domestic violence, air pollution, cancer, anxiety, birth control, dental health, divorceLet the Ss write the list on the blackboard and have a discussion on the health issues listed.T: Now, look at the issues on the blackboard and the issues listed in the textbook on page 17. Which issue do you think is the most important one? Why? Work in groups and have a discussion.After discussion.T: Which group would like to share your opinions with the class?S1: We think that drug taking is particularly important. As we all know, drug taking does great harm to people’s health; it will gradually kill a person if he gets addicted to it. Buying drug costs a lot of money, so many drug takers sell out their fortune to afford the drug they need. And as a result, many families break up in this way. We also know that our government has to spend a lot of money on drug addicts’ treatment.S2: We think parenting is the most important issue, because many issues arise as a result of bad parenting or lack of care and love. If children grow up in happy and healthy families, they will form good habits and keep away from those bad habits such as using drugs and smoking.S3: Our group takes smoking as the most important issue. The reasons are: smoking does great harm to people’s health, it causes damage to people’s lung and heart; smoking shortens people’s life-span; smoking not only does harm to people who smoke, but also affect the health of people around them, especially their family members.Step Ⅱ Pre-readingT: I agree with you all. All these issues are important and need to be concerned. I am wondering if any of you smoke. Anyone? ... OK. It seems nobody in our class smokes, that’s really good. I think you are all clear that smoking is harmful to health. But we know that some adolescents started smoking at very early years. Why do you think they smoke? Discuss in pairs.2 minutes later.T: OK. I’d like two pairs to present your opinions. Volunteer?S4: I think some adolescents smoke because they are not well aware of the harm of smoking. Many adults around them smoke, so they may think it is cool to smoke. So I think it is parents’ duty to tell their kids about the harm of smoking before they get addicted to it.S5: In my opinion, some adolescents smoke because they are falsely influenced by some media such as TV series and movies. So I think public media should give adolescents correct guidance.T: Very good points. Suppose some of them realized the harm of smoking and wanted to stop it. What advice would you give to them? Do you know any scientific ways of stopping smoking?S6: My advice is that let them get interested in some positive hobbies like sports, playing music, reading, playing chess and so on. If they show interest in some activities and they can devote themselves to them, gradually they will keep away from cigarettes and finally quit smoking.Step Ⅲ Reading and ComprehensionT: Good advice. Now we are going to read a letter from grandad to James. In this letter, grandad gives James some advice on stopping smoking. Let’s read and see if his advice is similar to yours. 5 minutes for you.After 5 minutes.T: OK. Time is up. After reading this letter, what kind of person do you think the grandad is?S7: Fr om his words, I think he is very kind and considerate. He doesn’t give direct advice on stopping smoking. Instead, firstly he tells James how about his present life and what the healthy lifemeans to him; then he relates James’ smoking to his similar exper ience as a teenager, which implies James that he doesn’t need to worry about it. So I think he is very careful about the way of talking to his grandson about smoking.T: You are right. So suppose you were his grandson, would you love to take his advice?S7: Yes, I would love to be his grandson and take his advice. I would feel confident to give up smoking.T: OK. Now let’s read the letter again and try to find out the answers to the following statements. Show the following on the screen.1. different ways people can become addicted to cigarettes2. harmful physical effects for smokers3. effects that a person’s smoking can have on other people4. effects that smoking can have on sporting performanceAfter the Ss read the letter again, let them give their answers orally and then let them fill in the chart on page 20 with brief phrases and sentences.T: Up to now, we have known how people usually get addicted to cigarettes and harmful effects of smoking on smokers and nonsmokers. But how can people stop smoki ng? Does James’ grandad tell him how to stop smoking?S8: Yes, he tells James how to stop smoking by sending him some advice he found on the Internet. T: Good. Now, let’s read the article from Internet. And then we will do an oral practice. You will have to work in pairs. Suppose James paid a visit to his grandad, and his grandad told him some advice on how to stop smoking face to face. Let’s act out this situation according to information from the article.A sample dialogue: (J = James; G = grandad)J: Grandad, I really want to give up smoking. I tried hard, but failed. Can you give me some advice on how to stop smoking?G: I am very glad that you have realized the harm of smoking and make up your mind to stop it. Here I have a few suggestions for you. First, make a list of all the benefits you will get from stopping smoking. Second, decide on a day to quit and throw away all your cigarettes at the end of the day before you plan to quit. Third, every time you feel like smoking, reread the list of benefits you wrote. Fourth, develop some other good habits that will keep your mind and hands busy such as going for a walk, cleaning your house and so on.J: What should I do if I feel stressed?G: You can do some deep breathing. You may also learn some relaxation exercises and do them every time you feel stressed.J: Is it a good idea to join a stop-smoking group?G: Yeah, it is also a good way. You can talk to a doctor or chemist if you feel really bad, they would love to help you. The most important thing is to keep trying. Be aware that some have to try several times before they finally stop smoking. So you just try again and I am sure you will succeed finally.Step Ⅳ Text AnalysisAsk the Ss to analyze the text on its writing purpose, writing style and main idea.T: After reading the text, who can summarize the main idea of each paragraph? Volunteers?S1: In the first paragraph, the writer tells about the life he is leading and the importance of healthy life.S2: In the second paragraph, the writer leads t o the topic of his letter by talking about James’ problem of smoking.S3: The third paragraph introduces the three different ways of becoming addicted.S4: The fourth paragraph is about the harmful effects of smoking.S5: The fifth paragraph is about th e writer’s hope for his grandson and his advice on stopping smoking.T: How about the writing style and purpose of the text?S6: This text is in the form of a letter, the purpose is to explain how people get addicted to cigarettes and how smoking affects p eople’s health. It also provides some advice on how to stop smoking.T: Next, who can summarize the article: How Can I Stop Smoking?A sample summary:Choose a day that is not stressful to quit smoking. Make a list of all the benefits you will get from stopping smoking. Throw away all your cigarettes at the end of the day before you plan to quit. Reread the list of benefits you wrote when you feel like smoking. Develop some other habits like walking, drinking some water, cleaning the house and so on to keep yourself busy. If you feel nervous or stressed, try to do some relaxation exercises like deep breathing. You can stop smoking with a friend or join a group. If you feel really bad, ask a doctor or chemist for help. The most important thing is to keep tryi ng. Don’t feel ashamed if you weaken because some people have to try many times before they finally quit smoking. Never give up and you will succeed.Step V Vocabulary LearningHelp the Ss learn some words and phrases in the text. And let them do some practice.Show the following sentences on the screen.1. I think my long and active life must be due to the healthy life I live.2. ... I became addicted to cigarettes.3. ... your body becomes accustomed to having nicotine in it ...4. You can become mentally addicted.5. But I did finally manage.6. I knew it was time to quit smoking.T: Now let’s deal with some new words and phrases in the text. Look at the first sentence, what does “due to” mean? Can you rewrite the sentence using other words except “due to”?S1: “Due to” here means “because of / owing to”. We may also say: Because of the healthy life I live, I can live long and actively.T: Good. Number two. “Addicted” means “unable to stop taking or using something as a habit”, it is usually followe d by “to”. According to this definition, what else can people become addicted to?S2: People can become addicted to drugs, alcohol, sweets and so on.T: You are right. We call those who are unable to stop taking or using sth addicts. So addict here is a noun, indicating a kind of person. Tom, are you a cigarette addict?S3: No, I am not. I am not addicted to cigarettes.T: OK. In sentence 3, which phrase you have learnt can be used to replace “accustomed to”? Anyone?S4: We may use “used to” to replace it. So this sentence can be rewritten as: ... your body becomes used to having nicotine in it ...T: I’d like one sentence from you by using this phrase. Volunteer?S5: Having stayed in the basement for several minutes, I finally became accustomed to the darkness.T: Next, what is the opposite of “mentally”?S6: Physically.T: “Manage” in sentence 5 can be used in many ways. What does it mean here?S7: Here it refers to “give up smoking”.T: Good. Here it means “succeed in doing sth; cope / deal with sth”. e.g. This is a complicated job, I can’t manage it without any help. Let’s look at the next sentence. We can see “quit” is followed by -ing form.
