Unit 3 ComputersI. Teaching Material Analysis (教材分析):This text is an exposition on science, whose title WHO AM I? is so interesting that it can arouse students’ curiosity to read. Words and expressions in this text are too obscure to understand. We can use pictures and the context to guide students to understand. There are three paragraphs in this text, each of which has a clear topic sentence that gives the main idea of the paragraph, so students should be guided to pay attention to them. Unlike other expositions, this text is written in time order and the first person, which should be introduced to students as well.II. Students Analysis(学情分析):It is the first time that students have read an exposition on science in senior school. They are not familiar with this type of writing. In addition, difficult terms and dull content in this text make it boring for students to read. Therefore, it is very important to arouse their interests and gain their confidence in reading.III. Teaching Aims(教学目标):Knowledge aims(知识目标):1. Get the students to know the following new words and expressions in this text: calculating machine, universal machine, analytical machine, artificial, intelligence, PC(personal computer), tube, transistor, chip,application, finance, trade, mobile, rocket, network.2. Get the students to have a better understanding of the history and basic knowledge of computers.Ability aims(技能目标):1. Students can improve their reading ability by predicting, skimming and scanning.3. Students can find the topic sentence and supporting details of each paragraph.Emotional aims(情感目标):Get the students to be interested in learning computers and learn how to use computers correctly.IV. Teaching Important Points and Difficult Points(教学重难点): Important points(重点):1) Enable the students to better understand the text structure by the clues of time;2) Enable the students to find the topic sentence of each paragraph;3) Enable them to improve their reading ability by predicting, skimming and scanning;Difficult points(难点):1) Enable the students to have a clear mind about the topic sentence and the supporting details.2) Enable the students to explore, discuss and summarize the textstructure.V. Teaching Methods(教学方法):1. Task-based teaching and learning2. Cooperative learning3. DiscussionVI. Teaching Procedures(教学过程):Step one: lead-in(导入)To introduce the topic of this unit, ask the following questions:“What do you do in your spare time?”“Do you play games on computers?”Computers are very useful in our daily life.Step two: warming-up(热身)1)“Then in what other ways are computers used?”With this question, we can introduce some words which appear in the third paragraph: communication, trade, science and technology.2) Now that computers are important and useful in our life, then do you know “how computers developed?”It is very necessary that we ask students this question and then explain it to them. In this way, we can help students understand some difficult words which will hinder them from reading, and make them focus more on reading instead of on solving difficult words.From the above tasks, students have already been familiar with the textthey will read, and thus they may not be afraid to read it.Step three: predicting(预测)“Acco rding to the title and the two pictures on page 18, can you predict what will the text be about?”Before prediction, we can ask students to describe the two pictures, which can increase the efficiency of their predicting.Step four: skimming(略读)Ask students to skim the text and then answer the two questions:1) Who is the speaker?Based on prediction, this question is easy for Ss to answer.2) What is the main idea of the text?To simplify the question, I ask them to get the main idea in the following way:The text is about the ________ and the __________of computers. These two questions can help students have a general understanding about the text.Step five : scanning(扫读)Scan the text by listening to the tape and then finish the timeline:In 1642 calculating machineIn 1882 analytical machineIn 1936 universal machineIn the 1940s as large as a roomIn the 1960s connected by a networkIn the 1970s new applicationsNow computers connect people all over the worldFrom this question, students can have a detailed understanding about the text and it will help students clearly find that the text is written in time order.Step six: careful-reading(细读)1) Please read the text for a third time and then find the topic sentence of each paragraph.First read paragraph one in two minutes and find its topic sentence.Students have known how to find a topic sentence of a paragraph, however, they still have no idea about the relationship between topic sentence and supportive sentences in a paragraph. For paragraph one, I will give guidance, and para.2 and 3 can be left to them.2) Now it’s your turn to finish para.2 and 3 in three minutes. After that, have a discussion in groups of four to exchange your ideas.By cooperative discussion, students who have known the topic sentence and supportive sentences may help those who do not know. Step seven: post-reading(读后)The above reading activities are all about input, and now it is high time they should output what they have learned in this text. So I designed a retelling as follows:1) Over time I have been ______ quite a lot. I began as a __________machine in 1642. In 1882 I was built as an _________ machine and then in 1936 Alan Turing wrote a book about how I could be made to be a _________ machine. These changes only became possible as my _______ improved. In the 1960s they give me a family connected by a _______. In the 1970s many new _________ have been found for me. My goal is to provide humans with a life of _____ ______. Now I am a devoted friend and ______ of the human race.Besides language output, I also design a summary about text structure to raise their awareness of a whole text.2) The text was written in _____ order and used_______ person(人称)in _______ and ________________tense(时态).The type of writing (文体) of this text was an ________.Step eight: homework assignment(作业布置)1) Read the text by listening to the tape and underline the difficult points you cannot understand;2) Try to complete exercise 1 and 2 on page 20;VII: Blackboard Design (板书设计)Para.1 changed a lotcalculating machineanalytical machineuniversal machine英语学习讲义PC(personal computer)laptopPara.2 memory improvedtubes--transistors--chips—network--WWWPara.3 applicationscommunicationfinance / tradescience and technology。

Look! (on the board: simple+-ify). -ify is a suffix which means to turn into, make or become. For example, beautify. So if you know the meaning of “simple”, you can easily get the meaning of “simplify”. Who can tell me its meaning?S: To make something easier or less complicated.T: What does “it” in line 9 refer to?Ss: It refers to the fact that computer was programmed by an operator who used cards with holes.T: Why was Alan Turing called computer’s real father?S: I guess that’s because Alan made computer more powerful, which could solve any difficult mathematical problem.T: What does “this reality” in line 15 refer to?S: It refers to the reality that computer had grown as large as a room.T: In paragraph two, there are two sentences which contain the use of “so…that…” structure. Underline them and study carefully.Show the following on the screen/board:●Over time my memory has developed so much that, like an elephant, I never forgetanything I have been told!●And my memory became so large that even I couldn’t believe it!Help students sum up the form and function of this structure:Form:so + adj./adv. + that + clauseFunction:This structure is used when emphasizing the degree or amount of something by saying what the result is.Step IV DiscussionT: Discuss this question in groups: Why do many countries want to host the Olympic Games while others do not? Use the mind map below to help you. Then prepare for a class discussion. Put forward your ideas and give reasons for your choices.T: Why do many countries want to host the Olympic Games?S: Hosting the games has a major effect on the economy and brings international prestige to the country. Thousands and thousands of visitors come to the game s and the host cities are permanently improved. By planting trees and creating parks, the city becomes more attractive for tourists.S: It helps to strengthen the spirit of patriotism and also can create more job opportunities and improve the quality of employment.S: The Olympic Games is the world's largest and highest level, and most widely influential sports event. The people of all countries enhance mutual understanding and friendship and safeguarding peace in the world event. Besides, the hosting of the Olympic Games is not only a country's comprehensive strength of the comprehensive test, but also to expand a country’ influence around the world, and at the same time promote their own development as a good opportunity.T: Well done! Why do many countries don’t want to host the Olympic Games?S: Preparing for the Olympics Games is a huge undertaking. Just like the athletes, the host city spends years getting ready for the event. Before deciding which city will host the Olympic Games, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) has to examine bids from allover the world. Bidding for the games begins about ten years in advance. Without preparing a very strong bid1, a city will not win the competition to host the games.S: Hosting the Olympic Games take so long time and so much money to prepare. Building the infrastructure costs huge amounts of money. Holding the World Cup in 2002 in Japan and South Korea, for example, meant that ten new stadiums had to be built, as well as many hotels and an improved transport system. In Beijing, after winning the bid, the government began major construction projects — the extension of the underground, the improvement of the airport and the building of new motorways. Each host city must also build an Olympic village for the athletes.S: Too many visitors may do harm to the environment of the city, in addition, the venues and buildings may be wasted after the Olympic Games.T: Well done! As every coin has two sides, hosting the Olympic Games has its advantages and disadvantages. For our powerful China, it is a good opportunity to host the Olympic Games which can benefit us a lot.Step V Homework (retelling)T: Suppose you work for an information technology magazine. Write a short passage which briefly introduces the history and development of computers. Don’t write in the first person.。

Unit 3 ComputerPart One: Teaching Design (第一部分:教学设计)Period 1: A sample lesson plan for reading(WHO AM I?)AimsTo talk about computerTo read about computerProceduresI. Warming upWarming up by talking about computerLook at the pictures on page 17. What are they? What do they have in common? Yes, they are computers. Then what is a computer?A computer is a machine which stores knowledge in its memory and does calculations on that knowledge. This knowledge is stored in symbols; it is called data. A computer usually has a monitor to show results. However, some computers can speak; these computers can be used for voice mail.计算机室A computer frequently requires a boot device. The boot device contains the computer’s operating system and data. Computer programs can be installed onto a computer. Some people think that computers are less useful if they do not have access to the Internet. They think this because the Internet allows the computers to send and receive data and email across the world.曙光3000巨型计算机A computer is now almost always an electronic device. It usually contains materials which are toxic; these materials will become toxic waste when disposed of. When a new computer is purchased in some places, laws require that the cost of its waste management must also be paid for. This is called product stewardship.In some countries old computers are recycled (melted down) to get gold and other metals. This is dangerous, because this procedure releases the toxic waste into the water and soil.Computers become obsolete quickly. Very often they are given away and new ones replace them within two or three years. This makes the problem worse. Computer recycling is thus common. Many projects try to send working computers to developing nations so they can be re-used and will not become waste as quickly.Computer jargon 计算机行话Computer jargon means words to do with computers and surrounding topics. Knowing what these words mean can help you know more about computers. Some people use these words to impress other people (Also known as buzzwords). Examples of jargon:Bit - The smallest data unit, can either be a “0.” or a “1.”.Byte - unit of data. See also Kilobyte, Megabyte, Gigabyte and Nibble CPU –Central Processing Unit, Another name for processorData - Information stored on a computerDisk - A place to store data.Email - Electronic mail.GHz - Gigahertz. Used often incorrectly to describe the speed of a processor. But with some 2.4 GHz processors faster than 3.6 GHz ones, it is clear that it is just a salesman trick.Load - Get data from a diskNibble - Half a ByteSave - Put data on a diskRAM – random-access memory(随机存取存储器), the more the better. USB - Universal Serial Bus(通用串行总线,一种简化了插接多种附件的薄型插座)WWW - World Wide Web, part of the InternetII. Pre-reading1. Questioning and answering---What do you know about computer?●Electronic machine capable of performing calculations and other manipulations of various types of data, under the control of a stored set of instructions. The machine itself is the hardware; the instructions are the program or software. Depending upon size, computers are called mainframes, minicomputers, and microcomputers. Microcomputers include desk-top and portable personal computers.●A multi-function electronic device that can execute instructions to perform a task.●A device that accepts information, processes it, and supplies an output.A computer usually contains memory, a control unit, arithmetic and logical units, and a means for input and output.●a programmable hardware component that is controlled by internally stored programs and that can perform substantial computations (including arithmetic and logic operations) without human intervention. A computer typically consists of one or more processing units, memory units, and associated peripheral input and output devices.●Related to automation and electronic data processing. The Library of Congress commonly classes most computer-related books in HF5548, QA75-76, Z52, T385, and some TK ranges.●a machine for performing calculations automaticallycalculator: an expert at calculation (or at operating calculating machines)●A computer is a device or machine for making calculations or controlling operations that are expressible in numerical or logical terms. Computers are constructed from components that perform simple well-defined functions. The complex interactions of these components endow computers with the ability to process information. If correctly configured (usually by, programming) a computer can be made to represent some aspect of a problem or part of a system. If a computer configured in this way is give2. Discussing and sharing---How have computers changed our lives? Someday soon, if you haven’t already, you’re likely to plug into the computer network nation growing in our midst. Computer terminals, or small computers connected via modem (a modulator/demodulator circuit for encoding/decoding computer chatter) to ordinary telephone lines, should be as ubiquitous as the t elephone itself. They’re a much more useful and humane tool than the phone, and with corporate America behind them the networks will be everywhere----changing our lives more than any technology since the automobile.Joining a computer network is the same as joining a community. Small systems are like villages, where new members are formally welcomed. The larger networks, the Source and CompuServe, for example, are cities-anonymous, full of life and events, but difficult to fit into.III. Reading1. Listening and reading to the recording of the text WHO AM I?Turn to page 18 and listen and read to the recording of the text. Pay attention to the pauses, pronunciation and intonation of thenative reader.2. Reading aloud and underlining expressionsNow we are to read the text once again and underline allthe expressions in the text.

Warming up by talking about ITWhat is Information technology?Information technology (IT) or information and communication technology (ICT) is the technology required for information processing. In particular the use of electronic computers and computer software to convert, store, protect, process, transmit, and retrieve information from anywhere, anytime.II. Listening and writingTurn to page 21. Look at the pictures and listen to a conversation about different kinds of information technology or IT, discuss and write down in groups the advantages and disadvantages of each kind.III. Speaking and writingSuppose you and your partner are going to help choose computers for your school. Now talk about the special things each of the computer can do and write a report to your headmaster.IV. Reading, underlining and speakingIt is said that computers could be put into androids or robots. Read the text Andy—The Android, underlining all the expressions and think of the fun you could have!Expressions from Andy—The Androidpart of a football team, once a year, get together, play a football game,be as…as…, in fat, look like…, on the football team, run fast, think like a human, shout to…, in com puter language, have a good shot for a goal, get second place, win the first place, have a new kind of program, improve one’s intelligence, create a better system, play against a human team, in a way, program…with…, make up…, after all, with the help of…V. Writing a letterSuppose you are an android. What would say to a spoiled child who would not do his homework? Write a letter to the boy.AndroidAn android is an artificially created being that resemblesa human being. The word derives from Greek Andr- ‘man,human’ and the suffix -eides used to mean ‘of the species,kind, alike’ (from eidos ‘species’).The word droid, a robot in the Star Wars universe, is derived from this meaning. Some people maintain that, etymologically, the word android means resembling a male human and that a robot resembling a woman should logically be called a gynoid for sexist language to be avoided; however, this word is not commonly used.Unlike the terms robot (a mechanical being) and cyborg (a being that is partly organic and partly mechanical), the word android has been used in literature and other media to denote several different kinds of man-made, autonomous creations:a robot that closely resembles a humana cyborg that closely resembles a humanan artificially created, yet primarily organic, being that closely resembles a humanAlthough essentially human morphology is not the ideal form for working robots, the fascination in developing robots that can mimic it can be found historically in the assimilation of two concepts: simulacra (devices that exhibit likeness) and automata (devices that have independence).The term android was first used by the French author Mathias Villiers de l'Isle-Adam (1838-1889) in his work Tomorrow’s Eve, featuring a man-made human-like robot n amed Hadaly. As said by the officer in the story, “In this age of Realien advancement, who knows what goes on in the mind of those responsible for these mechanical dolls.”Part Two: Teaching Resources (第二部分:教学资源) Section 1: A text structure analysis of WHO AM I?I. Type of writing and summary of WHO AM I?Type of writing This is a piece of narrative writing.Main idea of the passage Beginning as just a calculating machine in1642 in France, the computer has beenexperiencing improvement again and over againover 300years or more, which has not only madeit more beautiful and intelligent but alsochanged man’s life a great deal!Topic sentence of 1stparagraphI began as a calculating machine in 1642 inFrance.Topic sentence of 2ndparagraphNo one could recognize me after I got my newtransistors in the 1960s.II. A chain of events showing the development of computera calculating machine in 1642 in France → an Analytical Machine in 1822 → a “universal machine.” in 1936 → the size of a large room → made smaller and smaller →getting new transistors in 1960s→clever and quicker → a network in the early 1960s → talking to humans using BASIC in the early 1960s → brought into people’s homes in 1970s → InternetIII. A retold version of the text WHO AM I?I, the computer, was a calculating machine in 1642 in France.Then I was built as an Analytical Machine in 1822, which wasa technological revolution. I became a “universal machine”in 1936 to solve any mathematical problem. I was not very bigat first then I became huge, the size of a large room before I was made smaller and smaller.Getting new transistors in 1960s I became clever and quicker. I was connected with other computers and turned out to part of a network in the early 1960s. Then I began talking to humans using BASIC in the early 1960s. In 1970s I was brought into people’s homes, and came the Internet.Section 2: Background information computersI. How Do Computers Work?Computer BasicsTo accomplish a task using a computer, you need a combination of hardware, software, and input.Hardware consists of devices, like the computer itself, the monitor, keyboard, printer, mouse andspeakers. Inside yourcomputer there are morebits of hardware,including themotherboard, where youwould find the mainprocessing chips thatmake up the centralprocessing unit (CPU). The hardware processes the commands it receives fromthe software, and performs tasks or calculations.Software is the name given to the programs that you install on the computer to perform certain types of activities. There is operatingsystem software, such as the Apple OS for a Macintosh, orWindows 95 or Windows 98 for a PC. There is also applicationsoftware, like the games we play or the tools we use to compose letters or do math problems.You provide the input. When you type a command or click on an icon, you are telling the computer what to do. That is called input.How They Work TogetherFirst, you provide input when you turn on the computer. Then the system software tells the CPU to start up certain programsand to turn on some hardware devices so that they areready for more input from you. This whole process iscalled booting up.The next step happens when you choose a program youwant to use. You click on the icon or enter a command to start the program. Let’s use the example of an Internet browser. Once the program has started, it is ready for your instructions. You either enter an address (called a URL, which stands for Uniform Resource Locator), or click on an address you’ve saved already. In either case, the computer now knows what you want it to do. The browser software then goes out to find that address, starting up other hardware devices, such as a modem, when it needs them. If it is able to find the correct address, the browser will then tell your computer to send the information from the web page over the phone wire or cable to your computer. Eventually, you see the web site you were looking for.If you decide you want to print the page, you click onthe printer icon. Again, you have provided input to tell the computer what to do. The browser software determines whether you have a printer attached to your computer, and whether it is turned on. It may remind you to turn on the printer, then send the information about the web page from your computer over the cable to the printer, where it is printed out.II. TelevisionOld portable televisionA television (also TV or telly) is a device (tool) with a screen that receives broadcast signals and turns them into pictures and sound. The word “television” comes from the words tele (Greek for far away) and vision (seeing).Usually a TV looks like a box. Older TVs had large woodenframes and sat on the floor like furniture. Newer TVsbecame smaller so they could fit on shelves, or evenportable so you could take it with you wherever you went.The smallest TVs can fit in your hand. The largest TVscan take up a whole wall in your house, and may sit on the floor, or be just a large flat screen that can be mounted on the wall. Many TVs are now made in wide screen shape like movie theatre screens, rather than old, more square TVs.A television has an antenna (or aerial), or it has a cable. This gets the signal from the air, or cable provider. TVs can also show movies from DVD players or VCRs. TVs can be connected to computers and game consoles, usually through a kind of socket called “SCART”.III. Web or World Wide WebThe World Wide Web is the part of the Internet that contains web sites and web pages.It is not used to describe WebPages that are used offline where net services are not available, or no computer network exists - such as Wikipedia on CD. In this case no real physical site exists other than the place where the computer is. Blog and Wiki capabilities will also not be available because these require a communication with other computers.IV. RadioRadio is a communications invention. Though originally used to communicate between two people, it is now used to listen tomusic, news, and people talking. Radio shows were thepredecessor to TV programs.V. DVDDVD most commonly stands for “digital versatile disk”.It can play video that is of a higher quality than a VHStape.VI. Two kinds of DVDThey can also hold 4.7 GB of information as opposed to the 700 MB that a CD can hold. A plus of using a DVD for a video is the ability to have interactive menus and bonus features such as deleted scenes and commentaries.VII. EmailEmail (electronic mail) is a message, usually text, sent from one Internet user to another. Email is quicker than snail mail(mail)when sending over long distances and is usually free.To send or receive an email, a computer with a modemand telephone line connected to the Internet, and anemail program are required. Email addresses are generally formated like this: login@server.(com or fr or org or uk or other).Some companies let you send and receive email for free from a website. Gmail,Hotmail and Yahoo! do this.VIII. HumanHere are two humans.A man is on the left and a woman is on the right. A human or human being is a person, like you. A male human is a man, a female human is a woman. If you think about all humans in the whole world, they are called humanity. In the past, people have also used man and mankind to mean all humans.Humans are called Homo sapiens by scientists. Humans are an animal species that belongs to the group called primates. Monkeys are primates too, but the primates most like people are gorillas and chimpanzees. Most scientists think that chimpanzees and humans came from a common ancestor by what is called evolution. Other animals even more like humans than chimpanzees once lived too, but they are now extinct.Human rights are those things that everyone deserves and the way they should be treated by other people.Section 3: Words and expressions from Unit 3 Computerscommonn. 1. an area of grassland with no fences which all people are free to use or a piece of open land for recreational use in an urban area (常用于专有名词中): Every Saturday Jean went riding on the village common. Harlow Common is very beautiful in winter.哈洛公园在冬天时风景很美。
