Background Information ( 5 minutes)1) The masterpiece of the English poet John Milton (1608 - 1674) and one of the greatest poems in world literature. It was published in 1667 and tells the story of Satan’s (撒旦) rebellion against God and his expulsion from heaven and the subsequent temptation and expulsion of Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden.2) Woodland is characterized by lush vegetation and heavy rainfall. Rainforests are the world’s most biologically d iverse ecosystems. Although they cover less than 10 percent of the Earth’s surface, tropical rainforests provide habitat for 50 to 90 percent of the world’s plant and animal species. Tropical rain- forests are called the “jewel of the Earth,” the “Earth’s lungs,” and the “world’s largest pharmacy” because of the large amount of natural medicines discovered there.The largest tropical rainforests exist in South America’s Amazon basin (the Amazon Rainforest), in the equatorial portions ofthe Democratic Republic of Congo, and in much of Indonesia. Temperate rainforests, dominated by only a few species of trees, are found along the Pacific coast of North America from Alaska through Washington state, in the former Yugoslavia, and in parts of Japan. 3) Italian Spanish navigator who sailed across the Atlantic Ocean in 1492, in an attempt to find a shorter route to India. He made a total of four trips to the Caribbean and South America during the years 1492-1504. He achieved fame by making landfall in the Amer icas, which he later called the “New World.” The arrival of his ships in the Western Hemisphere was one of the pivotal events in world history.

Grammar –Attributive ClauseI.Review the text (15 minutes)1.Check the assignments2.Summarize the textOnce the most beautiful and oldest communities of living things on the earth, the rainforests are now being destroyed. The cause of the destruction lies in man’s craziness for land and money. To make things worse, modern technology available to man has sped up the horrible process of destruction. The shrinkage of rainforests has disastrously led to the shortage of water sources and the warming-up of the globe. Nevertheless, there is still hope for a solution to this problem if human beings take some preventive measures.II. Grammar Tips –Article(15 minutes)1．Note:1）在限制性定语从句中，当关系代词在从句中作宾语时，在绝大多数情况下都可以省略。
