Many heavily populated disasters from it.(Ask the students to talk about the pictures in coast areas, such as Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Thailand, India, Malaysia and East Africa was destroyed by the monster waves, causing millions of deaths. We human beings saw the violence of natural disasters from it.(Ask the students t6o talk about the pictures in Introduction, page 21.)T: Now, please turn to page 21. Here are some pictures of disasters. What can you see from the pictures?S: From the first picture, I can see a truck trapped in the floods.T: Good!

Well, do you know what a flood is, what a hurricane is and what a tornado is? If not, let’s come to page 21 to find out the definitions.Step 2 Speaking (Part 1, Page 21)(Get the students to match the words in the box with the definitions below .Then ask individuals to show their answers.)T: Now, you please match the words with the definition below. And tell me what they are. Make sure to give whole sentences.(Allow the students some time to do the task.

S: The Attributive Clause appears in each sentence.T: Well done! That is right. When we give a definition of a word, the Attributive Clause is usually necessary and helpful. We'd better learn to use the structure “A is B that/which…”. Now let's come to Part 3 on page 22.(Let the students match the words in the box with the sentences below and then check the sentences.)T: Ok, we can see it is the same form as the one we did just now on page 21.You please give a definition of each word with a whole sentence, using the Attributive Clause if necessary.

Actually. The scientists said, it was mainly due to deforestation and soil erosion.T: Perfect. We know that many things that humans have been doing, such as deforestation and sending greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, have changed the climate of the earth. It will lead to more extreme weather patterns, such as floodsand droughts. Although we can’t stop a disaster taking place, we can do somethingto avoid suffering a lot from it. So, it is high time for us to take action tolive in harmony with nature. We humans should try to balance economic growth anddevelopment with environmental sustainability.Step 5 HomeworkSurf the Internet for ways to avoid much damage from disasters.Make three sentences to define the words earthquake, volcanic eruption and planecrash, using the Attributive Clause.Suggested answers:An earthquake is a sudden violent movement of the earth’s surface that can causegreat damage to people.Volcanic eruption is a sudden occurrence of steam and material that come out of thevolcano.A plane crash is a violent fall or breaking that a plane come across when flying.The Second Period ListeningTeaching goals 教学目标1.
