Period 1 Introduction■Goals●To learn something about the Yunnan Province●To master the new words in the introduction●To practise talking about ethnic culture■ProceduresStep 1: Warming up by a discussionIn this module, we will talk about ethnic culture. As we all know, there are so many minorities, for example, the province of Yunnan is one home to many ethnic minorities. How much do you know about Yunnan Province?“Yunnan” this word refers to “the South of Clouds”, it sounds beautiful and it is really a beautiful place. Let me tell you something about this wonderful land.Yunnan, located in the Southwest China, has a vast territory, magnificent mountains and rivers, and abundant natural resources. With an area of 390,000 square kilometers, Yunnan is the eighth largest province in China. It is an inland province, with Guizhou Province and Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region in the east, Tibet Autonomous Region in the northwest, and the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in the southwest. Outside China, Y unnan borders on Burma in the west; Vietnam and Laos in the south. With a long borderline, is the main passageway connecting China with the Southeast Asian nations.In Yunnan, there are more than 6000 rivers which belong to 6 river-systems and 37 lakes with an area of over 1 square kilometer can be seen here, boasting a large number of plateau lakes. For example, the Dianchi Lake was called the bright pearl of Plateau. There are 700 hot springs as well, all of which attract lots of friends all over the world.According to our Chinese culture, a perfect place should consist of both the waterscape and the mountain. Yunnan’s mountains are also famous, including the Yulong Xueshan Mountain in Lijiang, which was regarded as one of the key scenic spots at state level. The mountains and rivers in Yunnan are both very superb landscape.Besides the landscape here, the climate in Yunnan is pleasant. As we all know Kunming is called the Spring City that’s because it’s always warm as in spring. The feature of Yunnan Climate is that it has littledifference in the seasonal temperature but considerable difference of temperature in a day. In general, the weather is favorable throughout the year, cool in summer and warm in winter, which makes Yunnan a favorable resort all the year round.Step 2: Reading the information in the boxOpen your textbooks, and turn to page 57.

There is no other town in China like Dayan which incorporates the folkways of so many people and the architectural styles of both north and south China. The people of Naxi, while developing their land of snow-clad mountains and turbulent rivers since ancient times, have to their cre dit the “Dong Ba Culture” seen as one of the world wonders, a culture all-embracing while unique.

(caught in a heavy rain 为过去分词短语作原因状语,它来源于原因状语从句Because he was caught in a heavy rain.) (2)_Grown in rich soil, these seeds can grow fast. 如果种在肥沃的土壤里,这些种子能长得很快.( grown in rich soil 为过去分词作条件状语,它来源于条件状语从句If these seeds are grown in rich soil.【注意】状语从句改成过去分词作状语时有时还可保留连词,构成"连词+过去分词"结构作状语. When given a medical examination, you should keep calm. 当你做体格检查时要保持镇定.4. 过去分词作状语的位置.过去分词可放在主句前作句首状语,后面有逗号与主句隔开;也可放在主句后面,前面有逗号与主句隔开.He stood there silently, moved to tears. = Moved to tears, he stood there silently. 他静静地站在那里,被感动得热泪盈眶.Step 2: Read the sentences and underline the V-ed forms(a) Spoken by fewer and fewer people these days, the Naxi language may disappear in the future. (because)(b) Seen from above, the old town is a maze of canals, little bridges and tiny streets. (when)(c) Passed from father to son, the music has not changed for eight centuries. (because)(d) Looked at from a distance, the Xishan Hills resemble a sleeping beauty. (when)(e) Completely rebuilt, the town would not be so interesting. (if)Step 3: Rewrite the sentences, beginning with the words given aboveStep 4: Complete the sentences with the correct form of the verbs in the box1) When _____ in spring, the hills are covered with flowers.2) _______ as one of the loveliest places in China, Yunnan is now visited by many tourists.3) _______ in the tiny streets, we decided to ask for help.4) _______ into a Naxi home, you should accept with pleasure.5) If _______ something you don’t want to eat, just refuse politely.Step 5: Write complete sentences with the correct form of the words1. discover/ only recently/ old town/ be/ still very quiet2. visit/ large numbers/ tourists/ old town/ can get very crowded3. build/ side/ mountain/ village/ be /very attractive4. cook/ traditional way/ food/ be deliciousPeriod 4 Grammar (2) -- phrasal verbs■Goals●To learn the usage of some phrasal verbs■ProceduresStep 1: General introductionThe grammar items in this unit focus on phrasal verbs. You will learn that a phrasal verb is made up of a verb plus an adverb or a preposition. You will also learn some rules to use phrasal verbs. You are expected to apply what you have learnt to practical use by finishing a conversation and a word game.Step 2: Explanation:1. Look at the following sentences. Compare them and tell the part of speech of each underlined word.He looked around and saw nothing.She is looking after the old lady carefully.In the two sentences, around is an adverb while after is a preposition.She was so ill that it seemed unlikely that she would pull through.He has gone through a difficult time recently.Here the first through is an adverb while the second through is a preposition. So we know an adverb or a preposition is used to make up a phrasal verb.2. Try to understand the meaning of the phrasal verb ‘make out’. Many phrasal verbs have more than one meaning. Do you know the meanings of the phrasal verbs in the following sentences?1) His accent gives him away as a southerner.2) He gave away most of his money to charity.3) They gave away their last chance of winning the match.4) The mayor gave away the prizes at the school sports day.5) She took me in completely with her story.6) He was homeless, so we took him in.7) Fish take in oxygen through their gills.8) I hope you’re taking in what I’m saying.9) S he pays the bills by taking in washing.omStep 3: Match the phrasal verbs with their meanings1.

A Dai family put us up in their home for a week.6. I really fell for the place.7. I’ll think it over.(a) fall in love with(b) meet or find, when you are not expecting it(c) continue(d) let someone stay in your home(e) consider(f) be a certain part of something(g) know aboutStep 4: Complete the sentences with the phrasal verbs in Activity 11.

陕西省南郑中学高中英语：Module 5 Ethnic Culture 第二部分教学资源(外研版选修7)

Section 1 Background Readings for Module 5 Ethnic Culture1. The Jinuo Ethnic Group: The Jinuo Ethnic Group is made up of around 18,000 people who live in the Jinghong area of Yunnan. Their language is a Chinese-Tibetan language with no written script, but they mostly speak Chinese today. They live by farming, and fishing, and they grow mainly rice, maize and tea. Rice and maize, along with beans, are their staple foods; they eat three meals a day, with lunch being taken on their farmland. They live in large houses made of bamboo on mountain slopes. About 20 or 30 families live on the upper floor of the same house, keeping their animals on the ground floor. The women wear colorful jackets and short black skirts, while the men wear a short white jacket and white or blue trousers. They are known as good singers and dancers, and the drum is a very important instrument for them. In December they have a special Sun-drum Dance, when older people play a spe cial drum and others dance around drum.2. Ethnic Minorities in the UK: Immigration from countries which were former British colonies means that there are many other ethnic groups in the UK. These are the figures from the 2001 censsus (published 2003). Total UK population: 58,789,194. Ethnic groups: White: 92.1%, Mixed: 1.2%, Asian/Asian British: 4.0%, Black/Black British: 1.8%, Chinese: 0.4%, other: 0.6%.3. Naxi: With a population of about 278009 (as of 1990), the Naxi ethnic group mainly live in concentrated communities in the Naxi Autonomous County of Lijiang in the Yunnan Province, and the rest are scattered throughout the neighboring counties in Yunnan Province, as well as Yanyuan, Yanbian and Muli counties in Sichuan Province. There is also a small number living in the Mangkang County in the Tibet Autonomous Region.The Naxi ethnic minority has its own language which belongs to the Yi branch of Tibeto-Burman Austronesian of the Chinese-Tibetan Phylum. The ancient Naxi people created pictographic characters called the “Dongba” script and a syllabic writing known as the “Geba” script. However, they were difficult to master, and in 1957 the government helped the Naxi design an alphabetic script. Due to close contact with the Han people over the past several hundred years, the Naxi people also use the oral and written Chinese to communicate.According to historical documents, the forefathers of the Naxi people were closely related to a tribecalled “Maoniu Yi” in the Han Dynasty (206BC-220AD), “Mosha Yi” in the Jin Dynasty (265-420) and “Moxie Yi” in the Tang Dynasty (618-907). The Naxis also had a number of other names. In 1278, the Yuan Dy nasty established Lijiang Prefecture representing the imperial court in Yunnan Province. After the founding of the PRC in 1949, following consultation with the ethnic minority, it agreed upon the official name of Naxi ethnic minority.Agriculture is the main occupation of the Naxi people, together with stockbreeding and handicraft industry. The banks of the Jinsha River are heavily forested, and Y ulong Mountain is known at home and abroad as a “flora storehouse”. The extensive dense forests contain Chinese fir, Korean pine, Yunnan pine and other valuable trees, as well as many varieties of herbs.Naxi literature is rich in form and content. The Dongba script created in the seventh century by the Naxi people is the only pictographic characters extant in the world. The Dongba Scripture, a religious work written in the pictographic script, describes the various aspects of life of the Naxi people during their long transition from slavery to feudalism. It is extremely important for the study of Naxi literature, history and religion.Most Naxi peop le were followers of the Dongba religion, which is a form of Shamanism. Lamaism, Buddhism, Taoism and Christianity only have limited access to the Lijiang area.The traditional festivals include the Farm-Tool Fair in January, the God of the Rain Festival in March, and the Mule and Horse Fair in July.
