Period 3 Reading and WritingThe General Idea of This PeriodThis period lays emphasis on extensive reading and writing.At first the teacher will check the students’ homework, by asking some individual students to read out their summaries of the reading pa ssage “Puzzles in Geography”.Then the teacher will ask the students some detailed questions based on the reading passage.This step has two goals.One is to help the students to consolidate what they have learnt during the last period.The other goal is to lead the topic to“Sightseeing in London”.In the next step the students are asked to read the passage fast and write down the places that Zhang Pingyu visited.After reading the passage again, the students will write down the comments on these places.This will be done by filling in a chart.Since it is an extensive reading passage, there is no need to understand it in detail.But the students should pay special attentionAs is well known, language can only be mastered by being used.So, the students will next undertake a rather challenging task, that is, to introduce one of the famous buildings or attractions in their hometown or home village to a tourist.They should practice in pairs by asking and answering questions.Then the students will organize the information from the dialogue into an introduction to the attractions in their local guide book.While doing this, the students should pay special attention to wording, especTeaching Important PointsTeaching DifficultiesTrain the students’ speaking ability, especially the ability to deal with some problems in understanding each other.Teaching AidsThree Dimensional Teaching AimsKnowledge Aimssightseeing, available, tower, uniform, royal, splendid, statue, communism, thrill, pot,be worried about, make a list of, to one’s great surprise, on special occasions,of, ring out the hour, set the time, have a photo taken, stand on either side of the line, onWorried about the time available, Zhang Pingyu had make a list of the sites she wanted to see in LondIt seemed strange that the man who had developed communism should have lived and died inLondon.Ability AimsTrain the students’ speaking ability, especially the ability to deal with some problemsEmotional AimsKnow thatTeaching ProcedureStep 2 RevisionT: In the last period, we learned some basic information about the United Kingdom, especially the historical influ ence on the geography and its historical attractions.First, who’d like to read your summary of the passage?S: The United Kingdom consists of four countries, which joined together little by little in history, and this can be seen from the Union Jack.But th e four countries don’t work together in every area.England is the largest of all and it can be divided into three zones.Both LondonT: I will ask you some general questions about the UK.While answering them, you can’t referto your textbooks.S: It came into being in 1603, when King James of Scotland became King of England and WalesS: No.They work together in some areas, but they have developed different educational andS: The Romans built the oldest port in the 1st century AD, the Anglo-Saxons built the oldestStep 3 ET: Do you still remember the pictures of some beautiful buildings in the United Kingdom shown at the beginning of this unit?Have you dreamed of going there one day and seeing all the sceneriesT: So today weduring her trip.(Teacher gives the students several minutes to read the passage and finish the task.)

he is always ready to laugh at other people’s peculiarities（怪癖） but he is equally ready to laugh at his own.He often makes jokes under the most difficult conditions, a quality that was very apparent during World War Ⅱ.This rather lugubrious type of humor is wel l exemplified （举例证明）by the title of an old Cockney music hall song: “Ain’t It Grand To Be BloomingNowadays, as the tempo of life in big cities grows ever faster (although the Cockney opposes this process when he can), the opportunities for the Cockney to exercise his wit and humor diminish(减少, 变小).But if one keeps one’s ears open on buses, in railway stations, in street markets and similar places, it will soon become evident that the spirit of Cockney humor is still very much alive, although tMost people who call themselves Cockneys usually do so with some pride.And, by and large,Famous Buildings in London Hyde ParkCovering an area of 350 acres (140 hectares) Hyde Park is one of the best known Royal parks.Originally owned by the monks of Westminster Abbey, the park was later seized by Henry Ⅷ.Since then the park was historically recognized for duels（决斗）, hunts and political demonstrations.The Rolling Stones and Pavarotti have performed concerts here, amongst many others.The Serpentine is an artificial lake used for boating and bathing, and Speakers Corner situated at the north-Westminster AbbeyFounded in 1065 by Edward the Confessor, Westminster Abbey has been the site of every Royal Coronation since 1066 (except those of Edward Ⅴ and Edward Ⅷ) and is the final resting place of many sovereigns, politicians, poets and artists.Burial in the abbey is one of the rarest and greatest honors in Britain.The nave is over a hundred feet high, the tallest of any church in the country.Behind the High Altar, in the Chapel of Edward the Confessor, the most sacred part of the abbey, rests the Coronation Chair.Coronations and royal weddings have been performed here for centuries.Buckingham PalaceBuckingham Palace has served as the Monarch’s permanent （永久的）London residence, since the accession（就职） of Queen Victoria in 1837. Built on the site of a notorious（声名狼藉的） brothel（妓院）, its days began in 1702, as the Duke of Buckingham’s city ter it was sold by the Duke’s son, to George Ⅲ in 1762.Whilst the Queen is in residence the palace is closed to the public.During the two months that Her Majesty is not at home, the doors to the Palace are open to the general public.TicketsKew GardensSpring is probably the best time to visit, but all year round you will find a stunning array of flowers, lawns, formal gardens and botanical greenhouses.More than 50 000 different species of plants are cultivated at Kew. Commissioned（代理）by George Ⅲ’s mother, Princess Augusta, in 1759, Kew is now one of the world’s most important botanical research c entres.Kew also offers many historical buildings including Palm house, a metal and glass hothouse built around 1845St Paul’s CathedralSet amongst the tower blocks of London’s financial sector, St Paul’s Cathedral has athat of Old St Paul’s, with its amazing 160 m spire（尖顶） which was one of the wonders of medieval Europe until it was destroyed by fire.The Cathedral is open for visitors on Monday to Saturday from 8: 30.The last admission to the Cathedral for sightseeing is at 16: 00.The Cathedral Shop in the Crypt and the Crypt Cafe are open from 9: 00 to 17: 00 on Monday to Saturday andfrom 10: 30 to 17: 00 on Sundays.Special services and events may close all or part of the Cathedral—sometimes at short notice.It is a great privilege to welcome those who come here from many parts of the world to share the worship of St Paul’s Cathedral.Inside the enormous dome lies the Whispering Gallery(回音廊).It is said that if you whisper close to the wall it can be heard over a hundred feet away at the other side of the dome, although the gallery is normally too busy to try this for yourself.Tower of LondonThe Tower of London started as a simple watch tower, built by William the Conqueror, to keep an eye on the city.The Tower of London has acted as a royal residence, treasury, mint（造币厂）and a prison. The Crown Jewels are found in the Jewel House, and for many catching a glimpse of these precious stones can be the highlight of their visit.Tower BridgeDespite being just over one hundred years old, Tower Bridge ranks as one of London’s most famous attractions. A steel frame clad in granite（花岗岩） and Portland Stone, represents an amazing engineering achievement, allowing the road crossing to be raised giving tall ships access to upper reaches of the Thames.It is an impressive sight although it happens infrequently.Inside the north tower an exhibition explainsShakespeare in LondonSome time between 1585 and 1592, it is believed that Shakespeare left Stratford for London and joined a company of actors as a performer and a playwright.Legend long held that Shakespeare left Stratford because he was being pursued by the law for poaching deer on private property.By 1592 Shakespeare had received some recognition, though not entirely positive, as an actor and playwright.He was mentioned in a pamphlet (A Groats-worth of Wit) written by Robert Greene.Greene refers to Shakespeare as an“upstart crow”in the London theater and charges that Shakespeare was an unschooled player and a writer who used material written by his better educated contemporaries.Also during this year, the theaters in London closed due to the plague.By 1594 Shakespeare had joined a theater troupe known as the Lord Chamberlain’s Men.Scholars attribute several of Shakespeare’s plays to this time period.Although no one can be certain of the dates of composition for any of the plays, a considerable amount of scholarship has gone into the endeavor of accurately determining an approximate time period during which Shakespeare wrote each play.Some believe that The Comedy of Errors, a farcical play centering on the mistaken identiti es of two sets of twins, may have been Shakespeare’s first play.A few counter that The Two Gentlemen of Verona, which focuses on the conflict between romantic love and friendship,may have been Shakespeare’s first play.Some scholars suggest that these play s may have been written as early as 1588 or 1589, while many others date both plays several years later, suggesting that they were written between 1592 and 1594.Other plays written during this early period include one of the history tetralogies: Henry Ⅵ, P art One(1589-1590); Henry Ⅵ, Part Two (1590-1591); Henry Ⅵ, Part Three(1590--Ⅵ, Part One was Shakespeare’s first play.This tetralogy treats the Wars of the Roses, the conflict between two fac tions of nobles.The last play of the sequence, Richard Ⅲ, ends with the establishment of the Tudor dynasty, to which belonged Queen Elizabeth, who ruled during much of Shakespeare’s life.It is also believed that Shakespeare wrote Titus Andronicus (1592-1594), The Taming of the Shrew(1593-1594), and Love’s Labor’s Lost (1593-1595) during this period of his life. Titus Andronicus, Shakespeare’s earliest tragedy, deals with the cycle of revenge which destroys the families involved in the play’s action.The Tami ng of the Shrew is a lively comedy featuring the willful Kate and her“tamer, ”Petruchio.Kate’s“taming”(her apparent and uncharacteristic submission to her husband) often troubles modern audiences. Love’s Labor’s Lost has been described as a satirization of the courtly and somewhat artificial love of male nobles, and of the academic pursuits, which were often more fashionable than serious in Shakespeare’s time, of the nobility.In addition to these dramatic works, it is believed that Shakespeare wrote the poem Venus and Adonis and began composing his sonnets in 1592 or 1593.He eventually wrote 154 sonnets.Between 1593 and 1594, he probably wrote the poem The Rape of Lucrece.In 1596 the patron of the Lord Chamberlain’s Men (Henry Carey, Lord Hunsdon, the Queen’s Chamberlain) died, leaving Shakespeare’s company under the patronage of his son, George Carey, second Lord Hunsdon.The next year, Shakespeare bought a spacious Stratford home, known as New Place.Shakespeare continued to be noted as an actor; in 1598 he appeared in a performance of Ben Jonson’s Every Man in His Humor, and was listed as a principal actor in the London performance of the drama.Soon after, in 1599, Shakespeare and other members of the Lord Chamberlain’s Men leased land for the Globe Theater, which opened later that year.Also in 1599, the poet John Weever published a poem (“Ad Guglielmum Shakespeare”) in which he praised Shakespeare as a poet and playwright.During this period of his life, from about 1595 through 1600, Shakespeare wrote a numb er of plays, including the second historical tetralogy (Richard Ⅱ [1595]; Henry Ⅳ, Part One[1596-events leading up to the Wars of the Roses: Richard Ⅱ is usurped by Henry Bolin gbrook and later assassinated.The new king, Henry Ⅳ, worries over his role in Richard’s death and about the ability of his“madcap”son, Hal, to rule.A subplot focuses on Hal’s wild adventures with the comical knight, Sir John Falstaff.Hal becomes King Henry Ⅴafter his father’s death; he conquers France and restores peace.King John, a historical drama dealing with the reign of King John and the tragedy of the young Arthur, is estimated to have been written between 1594 and 1596. A Midsummer Night’s Dream and the famous tragedy Romeo and Juliet were probably written in 1595 or 1596. A Midsummer Night’s Dream, a fantastical comedy complete with fairies and magic, deals with such topics as love, imagination, and art.One of Shakespeare’s most popular and well-known plays, Romeo and Juliet is the story of ill-fated lovers who attempt to escape the disapproval of their feuding families.The comedies The Merchant of Venice and The Merry Wives of Windsor are believed to have been written between 1596 and 1597.Identified by critics as a problem play (one that raises moral dilemmas which it does not resolve), The Merchant of Venice is like The Two Gentlemen of Verona in that it deals with the relationship between romantic love and masculine friendship; the play also focuses on the theme of mercy. The Merry Wives of Windsor is a farce dealing with middle class life and values; it features the knight Falstaff, who wasduring this per iod of Shakespeare’s life include Much Ado about Nothing (1598-1599); Julius Caesar(1599); and As You Like It(1599-1600). Much Ado about Nothing is the witty comedy featuring Beatrice and Benedick.The play is sometimes considered flawed by critics due to what they and many audiences see as the insensitive treatment of the female characters, particularly the falsely accused Hero.The Roman tragedy Julius Caesar dramatizes the downfall of the title character and examines the nature of political rivalry, ambition, and power. As You Like It depicts the beautiful Forest of Arden as a haven from the trappings of courtly life.Shakespeare also wrote several comedies during these years, including All’s Well That Ends Well (1601--1602); andEnds Well and Measure for Measure have both been tagged as problem plays.The first comedy ends abruptly with Bertram’s sudden acceptance of his wife Helena, whom he had essentially abandoned earlier in the play.In Measure for Measure, deception plays a central role in the play’s action;Twelfth Night is typically seen as one of Shakespeare’s more mature comedies.Li ke other comedies, it features some disguise and role-playing, such as that of one the central figures, Viola, who disguises herself as the page Cesario.The play also concerns gender roles and class differences.In this period Shakespeare also produced Greek and Roman dramas, including Troilus and Cressida(1601-1602); Antony and Cleopatra (1605-1607); Coriolanus (1607-1608); and Timon of Athens(1607-1608). Troilus and Cressida, a Greek drama, emphasizes the differences between the ideal and the real by portraying legendary Greek figures as people with less-than-admirable qualities. Antony and Cleopatra is the story of the love and passion between the famous Roman general and the sensuous, legendary Egyptian queen. Coriolanus is a Roman political tragedy dealing with issues of character and pride.Feelings of bitterness and disillusionment permeate the Greek drama, Timon of Athens.Shakespeare also wrote Pericles, Prince of Tyre probably between 1607 and 1608. Pericles is an adventurous tale of a prince who suffers the loss of his wife and daughter, but is, in the end, reunited with his family. Pericles is thought by some scholars to have been a collaborative effort.After 1608 Shakespeare’s dramatic production lessened somewhat.The Globe Theater burned down, but was rebuilt a year later on the opposite bank of the Thames River.During these years, Shakespeare wrote romantic tragicomedies (that is, romances featuring elements of both tragedy and comedy).The romantic tragicomedies include Cymbeline(1609-1610); The Winter’s Tale(1610--1611), Cymbeline and The Winter’s Tale are both stories of loss and pain, but, like Pericles, they end with a happy reunion. The Tempest features the same elements of loss and reunion, but it also emphasizes the balance of wisdom and power that Prospero achieves at the play’s end.It has been noted that The Tempest was probably the last play Shakespeare wrote on his own, and that the character of Prospero, as one who manipulates events, stages masques, and directs the actions of other characters, represents Shakespeare the playwright and his farewell to the theater.During this later period, Shakespeare also wrote two plays that most scholars believe were composed in collaboration with the dramatist John Fletcher: Henry Ⅷ(1612-1613), a historical drama, and The Two Noble Kinsmen (1613), the story of the love1612 or 1613, Cardenio, but it has been completely lost.。

reading （Warming Up ＆ Reading）课前预习自测地理之谜人们也许觉得奇怪，为什么用来描述英格兰、威尔士、苏格兰和北爱尔兰这四个国家的词语不太一样。
但如果你学过英国历史,就能弄清楚这个问题.首先是英格兰。
威尔士于13世纪同英格兰联合了起来。
如今只要有人提起英格兰,你就会发现威尔士总是包括在内的。
接着，英格兰、威尔士同苏格兰于17世纪联合了起来,名字就改成了“大不列颠”.令人庆幸的是，当苏格兰的詹姆斯国王成为英格兰和威尔士的国王时，这三个国家和平地实现了联合。
最后，英国政府打算于20世纪初把爱尔兰也同另外三个国家和平联合起来以形成联合王国。
然而，爱尔兰的南部却不愿意而分离出去了，并建立了自己的政府。
因此只有北爱尔兰同英格兰、威尔士、苏格兰联合起来,而组成了联合王国,这一点从新的联合王国国旗上就可以看得出来。
值得赞扬的是，虽然这四个国家的确在一些方面共同合作，例如在货币和在国际关系上,但它们在制度上仍存在着很大的区别。
例如，北爱尔兰、英格兰和苏格兰在教育体制和立法体制上都存在着差异。
在参加像世界杯之类的比赛时，它们有着各自的足球队.在这四个国家中，英格兰是最大的.为了方便，它大致可以划分为三个地区.最靠近法国的那个地区叫做英格兰南部，中部地区叫做英格兰中部,最靠近苏格兰的那个地区叫做英格兰北部.你可以看到英国的大部分人口聚居在南部，而多数大工业城市都位于中部和北部。
尽管,英国任何一个城市都不像中国的城市那样大，但是它们都有着自己的享有威名的足球队,有的城市甚至还有两个队。
很遗憾,这些建于19世纪的工业城市对游客并没有吸引力.要找历史性建筑你得去更古老的、比较小些的由古罗马人建造的城镇。
在那儿你才可能找到更多的有关英国历史和文化的东西。
最具历史意义的宝地是伦敦。
那儿有博物馆,有艺术珍品、剧院、公园和各种建筑物。
它是全国的政治中心.它有公元一世纪由罗马人建造的最古老的港口，有由盎格鲁—撒克逊人始建于11世纪60年代的最古老的建筑,还有公元1066年由后来的诺曼人统治者建造的最古老的城堡.曾经有四批侵略者到过英国。

(Exercise Book P16 )(10 minutes)To help students be familiar with the related topic and think critiacally.From self-driving cars to carebots (care+robots) for elderly people, rapid development in technology has long represented a possible threat to many jobs normally performed by people. But experts now believe that almost 50 per cent of occupations existing today will be completely unnecessary by 2025 as artificial intelligence continues to change businesses.“The next fifteen years will see a revolution in how we work, and a revolution will necessarily take place in how we plan and think about workplaces.〞said Peter Andrew, Director of Workplace Strategy for CBRE Asia Pacific.A growing number of jobs in the future will require creative intelligence, social skills and the ability to use artificial intelligence.The report is based on interviews with 200 experts, business leaders and young people from Asia Pacific, Europe and North America.
