Professor Yuan's breakthrough scientific achievement led to the world's first successful and widely grown hybrid rice varieties, revolutionizing rice cultivation in China and tripling production over a generation. His approach to rice breeding then spread internationally throughout Asia and to Africa and the Americas, providing food for tens of millions and leading to his becoming known as the "Father of Hybrid Rice."Step 4. ReadingReading aloud to the recordingComprehension—understanding what you are reading—is important. To read in thought groups is an easy, yet effective, way of improving reading comprehension. Now turn to page 9 and read aloud to the recording of the text A PIONEER FOR ALL PEOPLE. Pay attention to the thought groups in the sentences while listening and reading aloud.A brief introduction:Yuan Longping is known as China’s “father of hybrid rice”. It’s said that in China, we eat depending on “Two Ping” ---- Deng Xiaoping, who made the policy of System of Production Responsibility, & Yuan Longping, who invented hybrid rice.Yuan Longping, who was born in September, 1930, graduated from Agriculture Department in Southwest Agricultural Institute. He has been working on agriculture education & the research into hybrid rice since he left the institute.In the 1960s, when China was suffering from serious famine, he came up with the idea of hybrid rice, which has a high yield ( or output). Ten years later, he succeeded in inventing a new species that produced a 20 percent higher yield than common types of rice.Yuan devoted himself to the research into agriculture, & was honored by UNESCO & FAO(联合国教科文组织). Although he is 74 years old, he is still working on the research into agriculture.Period 2 ReadingStep 1 Lead-in.. Listen to the tape carefully then answer these questions.1)When and who did become the first agricultural pioneer in the world to grow rice that has a high output?2)What did Yuan Longping invent?Step2. Read the passage once again,then find out these sentences true or false.1)Dr Yuan is more a farmer than a scientist.2 )Dr Yuan’s kind of rice is the most suitable for China’s farmland.3)Dr Yuan would rather work than relax.4 )Dr Yuan has dreams when he is asleep and also when he is awake.5 )Dr Yuan enjoys a simpler life than most rich and famous people.Step3. Find out the topic sentences of each paragraphPara. 1: He became the first agricultural pioneer in the world to grow rice that has a high output.Para.2:He has devoted his life to finding ways to grow more and more rice..Para.3:He cares little about spending the money on himself and would rather keep time for his hobbies.Para.4 Dr. Yuan’s dreams.Step4. Write down Yuan Longping’s personal informationIn pairs, read the text, find information to complete the following form.Step 5 Language points:1. Struggle for…为争取……而斗争Struggle against…为反对……而斗争Struggle with… 与……争斗1)The swimmer struggled against the tide.2)We had to struggle with/against all kinds of difficulties.3)The slaves struggled for the freedom2. 使做…成为… make +it +adj./n. +to do好天气使游泳成为可能The fine weather makes it possible( for us )to swim.他将每早跑步做为一个规则He makes it a rule to run every morning.其他可用这种结构的词:feel, find, think, consider…3.搜查,搜索search (sb. / sth.) for …He searched all the rooms for the missing person.They searched the man all over for money.4.由于,多亏thanks to 相当于because of5.是从前两倍那么多twice as large as before相当于once larger than before6.对……感到满意be satisfied with…相当于be pleased withadj. satisfactory/satisfyingn. satisfaction7.在乎,在意care about比较care forMy aunt cared for me when my parents were away last week.Dr Yuan never cares about money and fame.8. Indeed, his sunburn face and arms and his slim, strong body are like those of millions of other Chinese farmers.e.g: The streets in Beijing are wider than those in my hometown.The number of students in our school is larger than that in their school.9. Dr Yuan grows what is called super hybrid rice.e.g: He came to what is called America.10. This special strain of rice makes it possible to produce one -third more of the crop in the same fields.e.g: That made it possible for life to begin to develop.The development of science makes it possible for us to know more about the universe.11. Dr Yuan awoke from his dream with the hope of producing a kind of rice (that could feed more people).e.g: He went to the U.S with the hope of finding a better job there.Step 6Closing down by having a dictationTo end the peri od you will take a dictation. It is about Yuan Longping, “Father of Super hybrid rice”.Yuan Longping, China's Most Famous "Farmer"Yuan came up with the idea of hybridizing rice for the first time in the world in 1960s. Since then, 50 percent of China's total rice cultivation fields have grown such rice, which added some 300 billion kilograms to the country's grain output. Furrows grown on his sunburnt face, a slim figure and coiled-up trousers legs would confuse foreign reporters who came to interview themost famous scientist in China, who would rather be called “a farmer”. Indeed, like many Chinese farmers, Yuan in his 70s and has devoted most of his life growing rice in paddy fields, but unlike those farmers, he reaps the seed from experimental fields only for hybridizing rice.Unit2 Working the landListening, Speaking and WritingLearning AimsTo help students read the passage Organic Farming.To help students to use the language by reading, listening, speaking and writing.ProceduresI.Warming up by listening and reading aloudLanguage is created to be listened to and spoken first.

高中英语Unit 2 Working the land教案2 新课标人教版必修4 Part One: Teaching Design1.A sample lesson plan for reading(Working the land)AimsTo help students develop their reading ability.To help students learn about working the land.ProceduresI. Warming upWarming up by questioningHello, everyone. We shall read about man who works the land today. Have you ever grown any plants? If not, what kind of plant would you like to grow? How will you grow it?(For reference: Mr. Li, I worked with my father in the rice field last year. We grow hybrid rice and use animal wastes to make the soil rich.)Has anyone of you ever been to the countryside? What did you do there?(For reference: I went to Chuankou the day before yesterday. It is a small mountain village 75 li north o f Beijing. I went there to visit my uncle’s family. I like that small beautiful village very much. )Who are from a farmer’s family? What do you know about farming?(For reference: Mr. Li, Dou Jun and I are from a farmer’s family in our class. We grow wheat and raise pigs on our farms. And both of our family are going to expand the area of fields this year. )Warming up seeing and listeningBoys and girls, I shall show you some photos of farming first. Look at this one. What are these ppeople doing in the fields? Yes, it is spring and they are planting rice. Lots of people in the world live on rice. I think you like eating rice, too.Planting riceHere is another photo about farming. The man driving the tractor in the photo is plowing the land to prepare for the planting. He does not grow rice there. What kind of crop is he going to plant here?Plowing the landThis photo is interesting. The woman farmer from Tibet is harvesting her crops not in the open field but in a plastic house. For generations, the people in Tibet Autonomous Region, have farmed the land using traditional methods. But in recent years, things have begun to change. All the farmers admitt the new ways are better.Indoor harvestingII. Pre-reading1. Questioning and answeringRice is main food in South China. What do you think would happen if tomorrow there was suddenly no rice to eat?(For reference: Then the south people would have to change their eating habit. They could turn to potatoes, wheat flour, cow and sheep cheese, cabbage, onions and garlic for food. They are the bases of the traditional food in North China. )If you had the chance to do one thing to help end hunger in the world, what would you do?(For reference: I would try to end hunger by popularizing the advanced farming techniques. Modern techniques could be introduced to increase the rice output, and expand the area of fields.)2. Giving background information about Professor Yuan LongpingHave you ever heard of a man called Professor Yuan Longping? Would anyone of you tell the class something about him?(For reference: Professor Yuan Longping is a Chinese agricultural scientist. Professor Yuan's breakthrough scientific achievement led to the world's first successful and widely grown hybrid rice varieties, revolutionizing rice cultivation in China and tripling production over a generation. His approach to rice breeding then spread internationally throughout Asia and to Africa and the Americas, providing food for tens of millions and leading to his becoming known as the "Father of Hybrid Rice."III. Reading1. Reading aloud to the recordingComprehension—understanding what you are reading—is important. To read in thought groups is an easy, yet effective, way of improving reading comprehension. Now turn to page 9 and read aloud to the recording of the text A PIONEER FOR ALL PEOPLE. Pay attention to the thought groups in the sentences while listening and reading aloud.2. Reading and underliningRead the text again and underline all the collocations in the passage. You are asked to copy them to your notebook after class as homework.Collocations from A PIONEER FRO ALL PEOPLEcall sb. …, regard sb. …, work the land, do one’s research, for the past five decades, grow hybrid rice, become an agricultural pioneer, have a high output,produce one-third more of the crop, be born into a poor family, graduate from acollege, devote one’s life to…, find ways to do sth., see the great need fordoing sth., increase the rice output, search for a way to do sth., increase rice harvests, expand the area of fields, produce tons of rice, feed sb. from a pieceof farmland, circulate one’s knowledge, thanks to…, rid the world of hunger, besatisfied with…, care little about…, spend money on…, lead a comfortable life,have troubles, equip sb. for sth., care about…, keep one’s time for…, playone’s violin, play mah-jong, ride one’s motorcycle, wish for…, in a dream, anear of rice, a grain of rice, awake from one’s dream3. Reading, identifying and summarizingAttention, please! It is time to skim the text one more time and identify the topic sentence of each paragraph.(Minutes later) Xue Hongmei, would you read to the class the four topic sentences you identified?What about the main idea of the passage? Who will volunteer to give the class his summary of the main idea? Bai Jianfang, you’d like to say something? Go ahead!4. Understanding difficult sentencesIn groups of four, analyze the structure of the difficult sentences. If you have anyproblems which are too difficult for you to solve do not hesitate to put them to me.5. Reading and transferringIn pairs, read the text, find information to complete the following form.Facts about Yuan Longping Facts about Yuan’s super hybrid riceage capacityeducation applicationmajor contributionhobby overseasideal futureIV. Closing downClosing down by doing exercisesIn the last five minutes let’s do the comprehension exercises on page 10. Check your answers against your neighbour’s when you have finished.Closing down by having a dictationTo end the period you will take a di ctation. It is about Yuan Longping, “Father of Super hybrid rice”.Yuan Longping, China's Most Famous "Farmer"Yuan came up with the idea of hybridizing rice for the first time in the world in 1960s.Since then, 50 percent of China's total rice cultivation fields have grown such ri ce,which added some 300 billion kilograms to the country's grain output. Furrows grown on his sunburnt face, a slim figure and coiled-uptrousers legs would confuse foreign reporters who came to interview the most famousscientist in China, who would rather be called "a farmer."Indeed, like many C hinesefarmers, Yuan in his 70s and has devoted most of his life growing rice in pad dyfields,but unlike those farmers, he reaps the seed from experimental fields onlyfor hybridizing rice.2.A sample lesson plan for Learning about Language(The –ing form as the Subject & Object)AimsTo help students learn about The –ing form as the Subject & Object.To help students discover and learn to use some useful words and expressions. To help students discover and learn to use some useful structures.ProceduresI. Warming upWarming up reading aloud the text A PIONEER FOR ALL PEOPLELanguage is learned in context. So let’s first review the text learned yesterday by reading it aloud. Try to force out your English slowly and clearly.II. Discovering useful words and expressionsIn pairs do the exercises 1, 2 and 3 on pages 11 and 12. You must finish them in 5 minutes. III. Learning about grammar1. Read and identifyRead the text about Yuan Longping again, paying attention to the sentences which use the –ing form as the subject and object.In the sentence “Wishing for things, however, cost nothing. “the –ing is used as subject.It can be also used as object of the sentence. For example: Yuan Longping likes playing his violin.2. Consolidating by do exercisesTo consolidate your understanding you will be given 10 minutes to go over exercises 1,2,3,4 and 5 on pages 12 and 13. You may just write on your text book.

《课标》指出普通高中英语课程具有重要的育人功能,把英语学科的工具性和人文性统一起来,旨在发展学生的语言能力、文化意识、思维品质和学习能力等英语学科核心素养。
其中文化意识指对中外文化的理解和对优秀文化的认同,是学生在全球化背景下表现出的跨文化认知、态度和行为取向。
在落实方面,明确教师在发展学生英语语言能力的过程中,应帮助他们学习、理解和鉴赏中外优秀文化,培育中国情怀,坚定文化自信,拓宽国际视野,增进国际理解(教育部,2018)。
在英语学科教育的过程中,丰富学生的文化知识、增加学生的情感体验、端正学生的文化态度、形成学生正确的价值判断、内化学生的文化品格、优化学生的文化行为是培养学生文化意识的重要内容(章策文,2019)。
针对母语文化和目的语文化的相互关系和在教学中的侧重,梅德明教授(2018)提出,在外语学科教育中,国际视野和跨文化沟通能力应该以中国情怀和中华基因为根基。
外语教育必须培养学生的“中国情怀”“国际视野”“文化意识”“思维品质”“人文素养”和“沟通能力”,要求学生树立正确的历史观、国家观、民族观、文化观,理解中国特色社会主义文化,主动积极地与来自多元文化背景的人们共同构建人类命运共同体。
