(E.g. “a fox is cunning”, etc.)2.If you are asked to give a short speech for two minutes, and your topic is “Cats”. Make a list of thethings that you are going to talk about3.Here are some words about cats. Which one do you think can best describe cats? Why? (Give asmany examples / facts as possible.)friendly, fascinating, affectionate, mysterious, submissive/ obedient, suspicious, clean, gentle, faithful, clever…What are the functions of the tail?Your cat's tail is sensitive and responsive and often signals his mood and motivation. You can usually tell what your cat is feeling by understanding his tail signs. Some basic signs include: (Ppt.)Tail held erect for the full length – friendly greeting to another cat or humanTail curves gently down, then up at the tip – cat relaxed and at peace with the worldTail raised slightly and softly curved – cat becoming interested in somethingTail lowered and possibly tucked between the hind legs – sign of defeat or total submissiveness Tail swishing from side to side – angry cat about to attackTail held still but with tip twitching – mild irritationTail held to one side – sexual invitation by a female in heatBut cats don't use their tails to display emotion alone; they use them for balancing, too, although cats without tails also manage nicely. If a cat is walking along a narrow ledge and wants to look to one side, he will automatically shift his tail to the other side to reestablish his body's center of gravity. Your cat may swish his tail, too, which adds to his skill as a hunter. By swishing his tail, he mesmerizes (v.施催眠术) his prey. Since your cat can't see his prey if it becomes still, he moves his tail to initiate the slightest movement of his target, which he can then see.Cats use their tails for balance in a way that is similar to a circus performer using a long pole to provide balance while walking a tight wire. The cat will move its tail first this way and then that as it walks along the top of a narrow fence. A cat that is running changes positions of the tail to help it maintain an upright posture when quickly changing directions. The quick, graceful motion often admired by cat observers is certainly enhanced by the balance the tail provides.It is almost impossible to describe the many ways a cat uses its tail to communicate. Have you ever witnessed the bristled tail of a frightened or angered cat? The size of the bristled tail is often two or three times what it is normally. A tail that is held high by a slowly approaching feline is generally considered to be a friendly greeting. A tail switching back and forth may mean the cat is annoyed or disturbed. Many contented cats will arch their tails over their backs and purr happily while being stroked and petted.Mother cats often use their tails as a toy for her kittens. The kittens will spend hours jumping and pouncing at the slowly swishing tail. This meaningful play helps the kittens to develop the athletic moves and skills that later in life will be used for hunting.I.Listening Comprehension questions:1.Why can cats always fascinate human beings?They can be friendly and affectionate towards humans, but they lead mysterious lives of their own as well. They never become submissive like dogs and horses.2.What’s human being’s attitude towards cats?Humans have learned to respect feline independence.3.How do most cats react to humans all their lives?They remain suspicious of humans all their lives.4.What is one of the things that fascinate us most about cats?It is the popular belief that they have nine lives.5.How many cats did the New York Animal Medical Center make a study of?1326.How long did they make the study?They made the study over a period of five months.7.What did all these cats have in common?They had one experience in common: they had fallen off high buildings.8.Why is New York the ideal place for this study?Because there is no shortage of tall buildings. There are plenty of high-rise windowsills to fall from.9.What happened to a cat called Sabrina?It fell 32 storeys, yet only suffered from a broken tooth.10.How did cats behave according to a doctor?Cats behave like well-trained paratroopers.11.How fast did the cats fall?They reach speeds of 60 miles an hour and more.12.Why can cats survive great falls?They stretch out their legs like flying squirrels. This increases their air-resistance and reduces the shock of impact when they hit the ground.III.Go over New Words and Expressions (Ppt.)IV.Do Vocabulary exercise.V.Homework:Phrases & Summery Writing.The 2nd and 3rd PeriodsI.Daily report:nguage points (Ppt.)1.lead mysterious lives2.survive falls3.make a study of4.base on ---to give (sth) a reason or starting point in (sth)5.…the further cats fall, the less they are likely to…6.stretch (oneself) out -- relax by lying at full lengthIII.Go over the text:IV.Special difficulties and Key structures:V.Multiple choice questions:VI.Additional exercises.VII.Translation(Oral).Words and expressions:1.affectionate adj. --- showing gentle love (to sb)* an affectionate child* affectionate kisses, words, smileseg.
