Unit 4 Astronomy: The Science of The StarsTeaching aims:1.Enable students to improve their listening skills and reading ability.2.Enable students to understand the development of gravity and how gravityaffects us in different times and places.3.Arouse students ’ interest to search for the mystery of space.Emphasis:1.Words and expressions: gravity, float, cheer up, now that, break out, etc2.Astronomic knowledge like gravity and black hole.Difficulties:1.Help the students to understand the development of gravity.2.Help the students to know how gravity influences us.Teaching methods:skimming, scanning, discussing.Teaching aids: tape recorder, a projector and a computer.Teaching procedures:Period one ReadingStep 1. PresentationT:Hello, everyone!odayT we ’ ll come to Unit 4 Astronomy. Before that I have a question: Where do we come from? Or we can say: Who are our ancestors?S1: Monkeys!S2: Beijing Ren who lived many years ago.S3: Reptiles.S4: Mammals.S5: Amphibians.S6: Dinosaurs.T: Very good! Can you put them in right order?S7: Amphibians, Reptiles, Dinosaurs, Mammals, Beijing Ren.T:Do you know what it was like before life appeared on earth?S8: It was full of water, perhaps.T: Before that, what was it like?S9: Sorry, I don’ t know.T: Do you want to get more information?

For the whole process of the examination, what kind of science has been used?S1: Biology.S2: Chemistry.T:So we can say medicinecombinesbiologyand chemistry.What aboutbiochemistryand geophysics?S3: I think biochemistry combines biology and chemistry.S4: Geophysics combines geology and physics.T:What about astronomy?S5: Physics.S6: Mathematics.T:Very good. We should know that astronomy is a multidisciplinary subject and if we want todo some researchon it, we shouldknow many sciencesubjectsrelatedto it. Now discussthesecond question:Whatdo we mean when we say we are studying a subject scientifically? Or what’ s t attitude towards science?S7: We should be objective, not superstitious.T: What ’ s the correct way to prove a scientific idea?S8: We should design experiments to test it for several times.S9: Then we can analyze the results and draw a conclusion at last.T:Let ’ s sum up the answers. To study a subject scientifically, we must try to be objective. Inorder to test our idea, we shoulddesign experiments,then analyzethe results and draw a conclusion.

Part B (Talk about life in space) is also an interview with the astronaut Brown, who is back on the earth. The host Max asked about his space life, such as his emotion about going back the earth, the eating, shower, brushing, hobbies and his work. Part A and Part B are interviews.
