Teaching procedures:

Step 1 Lead in (PPT 4-7)

Play a dialogue about height-increasing operations and ask students to fill in the blanks. After checking the answers, allow some time for students to freely express their opinions on height-increasing operations, thus introduce the major topic “science versus nature”。

[Explanation]

用一段有关增高术的听力引入主题，主要是考虑到这一切入点与实际生活较为贴近，比较容易让学生有话说，作为人类利用科学对自然的东西做出改变的一个典型例子可以顺其自然得引入本课主题。

Step 2 Science versus nature (PPT 8)

1. Explain the word “versus” ( Two sides are against each other)

2. Brainstorming. Ask students to think of other cases in which science goes against nature? The teacher can introduce some new vocabulary like GM food and plastic surgery which might be useful in later teaching. Show some pictures to help them better understand these things.

Suggested answers: GM food, cloning, dams, artificial rainfall, organ transplant, air-conditioner, cloud seeding, plastic surgery, euthanasia, etc.

3. Allow students some time to have a light discussion on advantages and disadvantages of any of the above cases.

4. In terms of science versus nature, what do you think the relationship between science and nature should be like?

(Both advance in harmony)

[Explanation]

本节将主题定位在“科学对抗自然”，让学生了解了这一关系后，用头脑风暴的形式让学生从增高术联想起更多的现实生活中能体现这一关系的案例，如转基因食品，人工雨等。

Step 3 Cloning (PPT 9-11)

1. Display pictures of Dolly and normal sheep on the screen. Tell them Dolly is a cloned sheep. But it looks no different from normal sheep. Show more pictures of cloned animals ( cloned calves, pigs, monkey and

mule). Their names can be introduced here, which might arouse students’more interest.

2. Introduce the concept of “copy”. Ask the students to think about this question: Are cloned animals exactly the same as the “mother animals”？

（They may have the same appearance but their physical qualities can be very different. Many cloned animals died at a much younger age than average.）

3. Interview one student about his feeling towards cloned animals by asking the following three questions: 1) If you happen to have a cloned cat, how would you feel? (excited) 2) What if another cat with the same appearance comes to you? (surprised and more excited) 3) What if more cats with the same appearance come to you? (shoc ked and scared)

4. Interview another student about his feel ing towards a “cloned him”. Then ask the other students if they would like to see a “cloned him” and why.

5. Girls versus boys. Ask students to have a 2-minute debate on whether it would be a good idea to clone humans some day.

[Explanation]

本节将讨论的重点转向克隆。通过图片展示的方式让学生对克隆动物有个感性的认识，并引进“拷贝”的概念，与第二课时的阅读标
