Save the Sea ——Letter of Suggestion
Dear Sir or Madam, I’m a student in senior high school. While taking a whalewatching trip to the sea, I found that the water has been heavily polluted, so I’m writing to offer some advice on stopping pollution. First of all, we need to tell people the bad effects that water pollution will cause. Then, limit the number of tourists coming to the seaside. The fewer the tourists are, the less polluted the water will be. Besides, raise people’s awareness of protecting the sea by giving lectures or organizing activities in public places or at school.

Unit3 Reading优质教案教材分析Warming Up provides two activities to spark students' interest in the topic. Of course,before the class,the students must have gathered some information to make preparations for this class. Many kinds of their favorite sea animals are presented in their vivid pictures. Students are encouraged to introduce them using some new expressions such as at an aquarium,on a snorkelling trip.Pre-reading is designed to further stimulate their interest in the topic of the unit. Meanwhile,students may have some basic information about the text.The reading passage Old Tom the Killer Whale tells about two anecdotes witnessed by the writer himself. The teacher can first get students to skim the text for the characters in the two anecdotes and get the main idea of each anecdote. Then let them scan for further understanding. In order to let students pay attention to the writer's vivid description,the teacher can ask them to do a blank-filling exercise in pairs to find out some key verbs and verb phrases. Having done this,students must have had a very clear understanding of the whole hunting and saving process. To make their understanding easier,the teacher should deal with any language problems while they are reading. And then underline some useful words and expressions.For further thinking,students are expected to work in pairs or groups. They will discuss the problems and work out the answers cooperatively,choosing a reporter in their group. Students will think actively,so various answers are possible.To consolidate the contents of the reading passage,students should be required to retell the passage in the name of Old Tom or the baleen whale or James with as many key words as possible.At the end of the class,by holding a debate,the teacher can arouse students' interest further as well as make them aware of the relationship between man and animals and the importance of banning whaling.三维目标知识目标1.Get students to learn the useful new words and expressions in this part:anecdote,annual,witness,accommodation,shore,opposite,yell,pause,telescope,teamwork,dive,depth,lip,urge,abandon,shark,relationship,help...out.2.Let students learn about several different types of whales,especially the killer whales.能力目标1.Enable the students to learn to talk about their favorite sea animals.2.Develop students' reading ability by learning to read about the killer whales and let them learn different learning skills.3.Develop their creative thinking ability.情感目标1.Arouse students' great interest in sea animals.2.Make them aware of the relationship between man and animals and the importance of banning whaling.3.Develop students' sense of cooperative learning.教学重点1.Reading comprehension to the text.2.Learning more about the killer whales and understanding the relationship between the killer whales and the whalers.3.Important words and expressions.教学难点1.The relationship between the killer whales and the whalers.2.Develop students' reading ability.教学方法1.Individual,pair and group work.2.Task-based teaching and learning.3.Quiz,discussion,blank-filling,retelling,debate.教学工具A computer and a projector.教学过程Step 1Warming up1.Ask some students to show some pictures of their favorite sea animals and introduce them to the class.The introduction should cover these aspects:·The English and Chinese name of your favorite sea animal.·Where did you find it?·Some features of it,its distribution,or living condition.

George ran ahead_of_ clancy.Clancy raced_after him.They jumped_into_the boat with the other whalers and headed_out into the bay.During and after the huntThe killers' action:A pack of killers are throwing_themselves on top of the whale's blow-hole to_stop it breathing;some others are stopping it fleeing_out to sea.The killers started racing_between the whalers' boat and the whale,just like a pack of excited dogs.Within a moment or two,the whale's body was dragged_down_into the depths of the sea.The whalers' reaction:The man in the bow of the boat aimed a harpoon at the whale and let it go to hit the spot.Started turning the boat around to go home.Anecdote two:The dangers facing James:(1)He was washed_off_the boat and was carried_away_by rough waves.(2)There was a shark out there.The help offered by Old Tom:(1)Old Tom wouldn't_let_the shark near.(2)Old Tom firmly held James up in the water.2.Reading aloud and underlining expressions.Students read the text aloud to the tape and underline all the expressions in the text.Put them down into their notebooks after class as homework.Suggested answers:Collections:at the time,witness sth.with one's own eyes many times,sort out my accommodation,in time to do sth.,crash down,yell out,ahead of,flee out to sea,aim at,let sth.go,be dragged swiftly down into the depths of the sea,in the meantime,have a good feed on sth.,be carried further and further away,be firmly held up in the water3.Reading,identifying and settling.Students skim the text once again and identify the difficult sentences.Let them try analyzing the structures of the difficult sentences and discuss them among their group members.They may also turn to the teacher for help.·...George didn't like being kept waiting...·...I could see a whale being attacked by a pack of about six other killers.·Being badly wounded,the whale soon died.·...I could see he was terrified of being abandoned by us.Step 5DiscussionAfter the students read the passage,ask them to discuss the following questions in groups and then report to the class.1.Why has the killer whale got the name Old Tom?2.Do you like killer whales?Why or why not?Suggested answers:1.Old Tom is a person's name. In my opinion,the reasons why the killer in the text is called so may be two. For one thing,the killer that showed the whalers the way to the hunt and saved James must be a male killer whale because Tom is a man's name. For another,the whalers called it Old Tom,just as they were calling a man. That is to say,the whalers treated it as their dear friend. In the meantime,the killer itself must be very friendly to the whalers and helped them a lot in hunting in the sea. In return,the killer can get part of the baleen whale as its food. So to some extent,the whalers and killers are depending on each other. They cooperated well and lived in harmony with one another.2.I like killer whales because when James fell off the boat,the killer whale not only protected him from being drowned but also wouldn't let the shark near. They are so clever and friendly to human beings. What's more,they worked as a team,which should be learned by us when we are working.I don't like them. Though they are clever and friendly to us,they are too fierce. To my great surprise,they should eat the flesh of another whale. I could hardly believe it. I have never heard of one animal killing his families and even eating their meat. How pitiful it is!Step 6Further-thinking1.What else do you think is amazing in the story?Show your evidence.2.What is an anecdote?Suggested answers:1.I think it is so amazing that we human beings should use one animal to attack or hunt another animal even his own family members,just like dogs that help hunters hunt animals.I think that the killer will return the body of the baleen whale instead of keeping it or eating it up is very amazing. But I guess the killer whales are just fond of the taste of the baleen whale's lips and tongue. Or they just want to share it with the whalers in return for their cooperation.2.According to the text,as far as I am concerned,an anecdote must be an exciting or amazing story.Step 7ConsolidationAsk students to retell the passage with the help of their worksheet.1.Please retell either of the two anecdotes in the name of Old Tom,the baleen whale or James. Your anecdote should at least consist of two paragraphs:Paragraph one:about the writer,time,place and what happenedParagraph two:detailed information about the anecdoteFor reference:Step 8DebateThe last whaling station in Australia closed in 1978.Whales are now an endangered species and protected by an international ban,but some countries oppose the ban. In groups discuss the reasons for and against banning whaling.Step 9Homework1.Write down the useful new words and expressions,then learn them by heart.2.Write down an anecdote in the name of Old Tom,the baleen whale or James.。
