Geography is an essential subject that deals with our planet, its resources, and the way it changes over time. It is an essential knowledge to cultivate, especially for children at an early age. Educating children about geography helps them understand the world and how it operates. It enables them to develop a better appreciation of different cultures, religions, and people. In light of this, developing a geography teaching plan for four-year-old children who are in their early stages of learning can be challenging. This article will discuss a geography teaching plan for four-year-olds that includes objectives, materials, methods, and evaluation.ObjectivesThe primary objective of this teaching plan is to help children understand the basic concepts of geography such as location, direction, and the environment. Additionally, it aims to:- Develop children's geographical knowledge and vocabulary.- Enhance their critical thinking skills through interactive activities.- Encourage global awareness and appreciation ofdifferent cultures and people.- Promote teamwork and social interaction among children.Materials- World map with prominent landmarks highlighted- Compass and direction guide- Photos and videos of different landscapes, people, and cultures- Drawing material for children to draw maps and landmarksMethods1. Introducing Location and DirectionStart the lesson by introducing the concept of location and direction. Teachers can use a world map to show children the different continents, countries, and prominent landmarks such as the Eiffel Tower in Paris, the Great Wall of China, and the pyramids in Egypt. Teach the class basic directional terms like north, south, east, and west. Teachers can use a compass to demonstrate how to determine cardinal directions.2. Interactive GamesPlay interactive games to reinforce the concept of location and direction. For instance, divide the class into small groups, hide objects in the classroom, and give the group a set of directions to follow to find the hidden items. You can also play games like 鈥淪imon Says鈥?but replace it with directional words like 鈥淪imon says, take two steps to the east.鈥?3. Study Different Cultures and LandscapesIntroduce different cultures, landscapes, and regions. Show children pictures and videos of people from different parts of the world dressing, eating, and doing different activities. Ask children to identify the differences between these cultures and their own. This will help them appreciate diversity and have a broader perspective on the world.4. MappingEncourage children to draw maps of their homes, schools, and landmarks in their city or town. This will improve their spatial awareness and develop creativity.EvaluationUse informal evaluation methods such as questioning, discussions, and observations to evaluate the effectiveness of the lesson. For example, ask children questions about different regions' names, landmarks, and cultures. Observe how children interact during group activities and how they respond to studying different cultures and landscapes.ConclusionGeography is an essential aspect of every child's education, and teaching children about it at an early stage can be beneficial to their development. This teaching plan provides a framework for teachers to teach four-year-old children geography. It includes objectives, materials, methods, and evaluation, and can be tailored to the teachers' taste and the students' needs. By following this plan, children will develop a better understanding and appreciation of the world they live in.。

Lecture 1INTRODUCTION TO EARTHMajor Concept (I)The planets in our solar system, including Earth, began to form out of a rotating disk of gas and dust about 4.6 billion years ago.Related or supporting concepts:The present view of the beginning of the solar system suggests that a cloud of gas and dust was flattened into a disk by rotation. The density of the matter in the disk was greatest at its center and decreased toward the edges.The sun formed at the center of the disk where the temperature was highest and the planets formed at greater distances away from the center.The compositions of the planets differ because of a natural sorting of elements in the cloud with distance from the center.The temperature of the early Earth was probably quite high due to:a. the gravitational capture of particles that released heat on impact,b. the increased pressure on the interior of the planet as it continued to grow, andc. the capture of radioactive elements that gave off heat when they decayed.During the first few hundred million years, the internal temperature rose high enough to melt iron and nickel. These heavy metals sank to form the core of the planet and displaced lighter material that rose to form chemically differentiated shells.Major Concept (II)Earth’s oceans originated early in the planet’s history. There are two proposed sources of the water in the oceans.Related or supporting concepts:The oldest sedimentary rocks found that required water for their formation are 3.9 billion years old. This suggests that there are been oceans on Earth for roughly 4 billion years. Traditionally scientists have believed that the water in the oceans and atmosphere originated in Earth’s mantle and was brought to the surface by volcanism.Most magmas contain from 1% to 5% dissolved gas by weight, most of which is water vapor.If we assume that the current rate of release of water vapor in volcanic eruptions has remained essentially constant for the past 4 billion years, then the volume of water expelled(put out) during that time would be roughly 100 times the volume of today’s oceans.A relatively new proposal is that a significant amount of water is added to Earth from space when small icy comets(彗星)enter Earth’s atmosphere.The early atmosphere did not have any oxygen. The oxygen released from the interior of the planet would have combined with metals at the surface to produce oxides.It wasn't until large amounts of oxygen were produced after plants formed that it began to accumulate in the atmosphere.Major Concept (III)There is compelling evidence that there may be other oceans in the solar system.Related or supporting concepts:Two of Jupiter’s moons, Europa and Callisto, may have oceans beneath their icy surfaces.Liquid oceans on Europa may be possible despite extremely low temperatures because of heatgenerated by friction as it is deformed by Jupiter’s tide-producing gravitational force.Both moons have induced magnetic fields indicating they consist partly of strongly conducting material. This may be liquid water with electrolytic salts.There is also some indication that Mars once had an ocean covering portions of its northern hemisphere.Major Concept (IV)There are a variety of lines of indirect evidence that allow us to estimate Earth’s age as being about 4.5 to 4.6 billion years.Related or supporting concepts:Earth’s original crust, that would have formed early in its history, has been destroyed or covered by active volcanism and tectonic processes. This is a reflection of the geologically active nature of the planet. Consequently, the oldest surface rocks we have found, roughly 4 billion years old, give us a minimum age for Earth rather than an actual age.Indirect evidence of Earth’s age includes:a. the dating of moon rocks at 4.2 billion years,b. the dating of meteorites at 4.5 to 4.6 billion years, andc. theoretical calculations of the age of the sun as being roughly the same as the meteorites.We can determine the age of rocks that contain radioactive isotopes of elements that decay at constant, known rates. This is called radiometric dating.If a rock contains atoms of a specific radioactive isotope, half of them will decay into another element, called the daughter product, in a period of time called the half-life of the isotope.An example of this type of process would be Uranium235 and its daughter product Lead207 with a half-life of 704 million years. A rock that initially contained 100 atoms of U235 and no Pb207 would have the following numbers of the two elements after the indicated elapsed times: There are several different "parent-daughter" radioactive pairs that occur in rocks. Each of the pairs has its own specific half-life, some quite long and others very short. Pairs with long half-lives are best for dating very old rocks while those with short half-lives are best for younger rocks. Ideally, an assigned date for a rock will be based on the use of more than one radioactive pair so that a check can be made on accuracy.Major Concept (V)Geologic time is often difficult to grasp because of how long it is compared to all of human history (to say nothing of the incredibly brief time span of a single human life).Related or supporting conceptsJust as we divide time into segments like years, months, and days to identify both duration and some sense of position, we divide geologic time as well. The longest division is called an eon. Eons are divided into eras, eras are divided into periods, and periods into epochs.The geologic time scale and the history of evolution of life-forms is given in table 2.1.The eras, in order of most distant past to most recent time, are:a. Precambrian,b. Paleozoic (ancient life),c. Mesozoic (intermediate life), andd. Cenozoic (recent life).The divisions of geologic time were originally decided upon on the basis of the appearance anddisappearance of specific fossils.The development of radiometric dating techniques allowed geologists to assign absolute dates to the different time divisions.Because of the difficulty we typically have in comprehending time spans as great as billions of years, it is often easier to imagine that the earth is much younger, say tens of years old, and then consider what major events occurred in that period of time. Suppose, for example, that rather than the earth being 4.6 billion years old, it is only 46 years old. Then we can recognize the following important events:a. 0 years of age: the earth formedb. the first several years of the planet's history have not been preserved in the recordc. 6 years of age: the oldest discovered rocks were formedd. 12 years of age: the first living cells appearede. 22–23 years of age: photosynthesis began producing oxygenf. 31 years of age: there was sufficient oxygen in the atmosphere to allow the growth of complex cells that require oxygeng. 40 years of age: the first hard-shelled organisms appeared, to be preserved later as fossilsh. 41 years of age: the first animals with backbones, called vertebrates, appearedi. 41 years and 8½ months: land plants appeared and were shortly followed by a period of time when fish were the dominant animal formj. 43 years of age: the appearance of reptilesk. 44 years of age: dinosaurs were abundantl. 45 years of age: the dinosaurs disappearedm. about a year ago: flowers appearedn. 4 months ago: mammals, birds, and insects were the dominant life formso. 25 days ago: human ancestors appearedp. 11 days ago: the first member of the genus Homo appearedq. 30 minutes ago: modern civilization beganr. 1 minute ago: the industrial revolution beganMajor concept (VI)Earth has a roughly spherical shape, bulging slightly at the equator, with a surface that is remarkably smooth.Related or supporting conceptsThe earth is not a perfectly rigid body. As a result, its rotation causes it to bulge outward at the equator and be slightly flattened at the poles .Approximate values for the following figures are:a. average radius = 6371 km or 3956 mib. equatorial radius = 6378.4 km or 3961 mic. polar radius = 6356.9 km or 3947 mid. (equatorial-polar) radius = 21.5 km or 15 miThe unequal distribution of continents and ocean basins results in a further deformation of the planet from a perfect sphere to a shape that is similar to a pear.Although it seems as if the difference in elevation from the highest point on land to the deepest place on the sea floor is very large, it is really quite small compared to Earth’s size. The difference in surface elevation is less than 20 km compared to Earth's radius of over 6000 km.If Earth was reduced to the size of a basketball or a grapefruit, its surface would be about as smooth as they are.Major Concept (VII)Exact position on Earth is determined by latitude and longitude.Related or supporting concepts:A grid of lines can be placed over Earth’s surface to serve as a reference system to determine location. There are two sets of lines that intersect one another to define latitude and longitude. Lines of latitude are drawn as circles parallel to the equator. These circles have steadily decreasing diameters as they get closer to the poles. Lines of latitude are also called parallels because all of the circles are in planes that are parallel to one another.Latitude is 0° at the equator and increases to 90° at the poles. From this it should be clear that latitude is measured as an internal angle from the center of the Earth away from the equator.By convention, latitudes south of the equator are negative and north of the equator are positive. One degree of latitude is equal to 60 nautical miles.Lines of longitude are sometimes called "great circles" because they are drawn by constructing circles perpendicular to the equator, that pass through both poles . In this way, each circle has a diameter that is the same as Earth’s diameter.Lines of longitude segment the planet in a way that is similar to the sections of an orange.Lines of longitude are also called meridians. The distance between meridians corresponds to an angle from the center of the earth between an arbitrarily chosen "prime meridian," which is at 0°by definition, and a second meridian measured along the equator.The prime meridian passes through both poles and Greenwich, England .Longitude can be measured from 0°–360° moving eastward from the prime meridian, or from 0°to +180°E and 0° to -180°W.The actual distance between meridians decreases away from the equator and becomes zero at the poles, where all meridians converge.Each degree of latitude or longitude can be divided into 60 minutes (60′) and each minute into 60 seconds (60″).Major Concept (VIII)Differences in longitude can be related to differences in time between two locations because of Earth’s rotation.The rotation and revolution of the Earth around the SunRelated or supporting concepts:Earth rotates on its axis once every 24 hours. It follows therefore that it rotates through 360° of longitude each 24 hours. This is equivalent to (15° of longitude/1 hour) or (15′ of longitude/1 minute of time).The time at 0° longitude, or at Greenwich, England is called Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). It is also known as Universal Time (UT) or ZULU (Z) time.The international date line is on the opposite side of the earth from Greenwich, England or the prime meridian. It corresponds to the 180° meridian.Because we know the rate of Earth’s rotation, we can determine our longitude simply by knowing the difference in time between our location and Greenwich, England. For example:Major Concept (IX)Characteristics of Earth's surface are often shown on maps and charts.中国地形图1:32000000Related or supporting concepts:Maps and charts illustrate three-dimensional shapes on two-dimensional surfaces.Surface features on land are often illustrated with maps.Seafloor features are often illustrated with charts. Charts are also used to illustrate features in the sky.Three-dimensional features can never be perfectly illustrated on two-dimensional maps and charts. As a result, there is always some distortion of real features.Different map projections will produce different types and degrees of distortion. When choosing a specific projection you need to carefully consider which one will produce the least distortion of the features you are interested in.There are three basic types of projections :a. cylindrical,b. conic, andc. tangent plane.The sea floor is often illustrated using a bathymetric chart . Contour lines on a bathymetric chart connect points of equal depth.A chart that shows regions of varying depth by variations in color, shading, or perspective drawing is called a physiographic map.Three-dimensional, color images are generated by computer from detailed sonar dataMajor Concept (X)Physical, biological, and chemical processes on the planet are all influenced by temporal changes or cycles that occur with different periods and are due to Earth's rotation on its axis and its movement around the sun.Related or supporting concepts:There are two natural periods that influence processes on Earth. These are caused by the daily rotation of the planet on its axis which gives us night and day, and the yearly rotation of the earth around the sun which gives us the changing seasons.We experience seasonal variations in clim ate because Earth’s rotational axis is tilted away from a line drawn perpendicular to the plane of its orbit around the sun by 23½°.Earth’s tilt results in an annual migration of the apparent position of the sun in the sky from being directly overhead at noon somewhere between 23½°S and 23½°N throughout the year. Outside of this band of latitude centered on the equator, the sun will never appear to be directly overhead even when it has risen in the sky to its highest point at noon.The Northern Hemisphere is tilted toward the sun during Northern Hemisphere summers and is warmer because the intensity of solar radiation is greater at the surface when the sun's rays are more nearly perpendicular to the surface. At this time the Southern Hemisphere experiences its winter as it is tilted away from the sun.There are four parallels of latitude that have special names; these are:Latitude Name66½°N Arctic Circle23½°N Tropic of Cancer23½°S Tropic of Capricorn66½°S Antarctic CircleOn the summer solstice, which usually occurs around June 22, the sun will be directly overhead the Tropic of Cancer and there will be 24 hours of daylight above the Arctic Circle. This is the day with the longest period of daylight in the Northern Hemisphere and the shortest in the Southern Hemisphere. The sun will not rise at all at latitudes farther south than the Antarctic Circle.On the autumnal equinox, on about September 23, the sun will be directly overhead the equator and the amount of daylight will be the same everywhere.On the winter solstice, around December 21, the sun will be directly overhead the Tropic of Capricorn and there will be 24 hours of daylight above the Antarctic Circle and perpetual darkness above the Arctic Circle. This will be the day with the longest period of sunlight in the Southern Hemisphere and the shortest in the Northern Hemisphere.On the vernal equinox, roughly March 21, the sun will have moved northward again to stand directly over the equator.The greatest annual change in climate occurs at mid-latitudes in what are called the temperate zones. At low latitudes it is relatively warm throughout the year and at high latitudes it remains fairly cold.The orbit the earth takes around the sun is elliptical, so the distance between the earth and the sun changes through the year. The distance is greatest during the Northern Hemisphere summer and least during the Northern Hemisphere winter. It is important to remember that the seasons are not due to the variable distance from the sun (otherwise we should expect summer in the Northern Hemisphere when we are closest to the sun in the end of December), but rather they are controlled by what hemisphere is tilted toward the sun's rays.Major Concept (XI)Earth is essentially a closed system. As such, all of the water available to the planet moves through different reservoirs where it is stored for varying periods of time before moving on. Related or supporting concepts:Water can be found in all three states of matter in the earth system: solid (ice), liquid, and gas (water vapor).At any given time a water molecule will be located in a specific reservoir. Examples of reservoirs include the atmosphere, rivers, lakes, the oceans, glaciers, and groundwater, to name a few. Water will not remain indefinitely in a single reservoir; rather, it will be cycled from one reservoir to another by such processes as evaporation, precipitation, transpiration, sublimation, and runoff.Transpiration is the release of water by plants. Sublimation is a phase change of water from solid to gas, or from ice to water vapor.The cycling of water from one reservoir to another is called the hydrologic cycle. The hydrologic cycle can be seen diagrammatically in figure 2.17 in your text.In the simplest possible description, the movement of water from one reservoir to another can be described in part by the following table:Reservoir Water lost via Water gained viacontinents evaporation precipitationrunofftranspirationsublimationoceans evaporation precipitationrunoffsublimationatmosphere precipitation evaporationtranspirationsublimationThe amount of water stored in different reservoirs can vary greatly. The largest volume of water is stored in the oceans (about 98 percent) and the least amount is stored in the atmosphere (about .001 percent).Major Concept (XII)The largest water reservoir in the earth system in terms of the volume of water stored is the oceans.Related or supporting concepts:Roughly 71 percent of the surface of the planet is covered by the oceans. This leaves only 29 percent covered by the continents.The surface area of the oceans is approximately 140 million square miles or 362 million square kilometers.The volume of water held in the oceans is an incredible 1.35 billion cubic kilometers. This amount of water is so great that it is difficult to grasp.If Earth was a smooth ball without any continents to interrupt the oceans and a flat sea floor, the water held in the oceans would cover the globe to a uniform depth of about 1.7 miles (2645 meters or 8680 feet).Adding all of the rest of the water trapped in other reservoirs would raise the level of this global sea by 75 meters to about 2720 meters or 8924 feet.Major Concept (XIII)The continents are not uniformly distributed on Earth. In addition, the percentage of the planet's surface at any given elevation is not constant.The only latitude band where there is more land than water, with the exception of Antarctica, is between 45°–70°N.The Southern Hemisphere is dominated by oceans while most land is in the Northern Hemisphere .Related or supporting concepts:As mentioned previously, continents cover about 29 percent of Earth's surface. Roughly 70 percent of all land is found in the Northern Hemisphere, and most of it at mid-latitudes.Take a look at figure 2.19 to see the distribution of land and water with latitude.The percent of land and sea floor, as well as the percent of the total surface area of the planet, that is at any specific elevation above or depth below sea level is shown in figure 2.20. This plot is called the hypsographic curve.Among the things we can learn from the hypsographic curve are:a. mean elevation of land = 840 mb. mean depth of the oceans = 3729 mc. about 20 percent of land is higher than 2 km above sea leveld. about 85 percent of sea floor is deeper than 2 km below sea levelThe highest elevation on land, Mt. Everest at 8850 m, is closer to sea level than the deepest spot in the oceans, the Challenger Deep of the Mariana Trench at 11,030 m.The great difference in height between the continents and the sea floor is due to the large difference in the types of rocks that make up continents and sea floor. Continental rocks have a lower density than seafloor rocks.Major Concept (XIV)The world's seawater can be divided into four distinct oceans: the Pacific, the Atlantic, the Indian, and the Arctic.Related or supporting concepts:The three largest oceans (Pacific, Atlantic, Indian) all join in the Southern Hemisphere around Antarctica.The Pacific Ocean is the largest with a surface area that is slightly larger than the sum of the other three. The Pacific also holds the greatest volume of water and has the greatest average depth. The Atlantic Ocean is unique in that it extends the greatest distance north and south. It is a relatively narrow ocean and is the third deepest.The Indian Ocean is different because it is entirely in the Southern Hemisphere. It is second deepest.The Arctic Ocean is the smallest and shallowest of the four.Each ocean is bounded roughly by continents, has its own distinct water masses, and well-defined surface currents.A large body of seawater that is bounded by land and smaller than an ocean is called a mediterranean or a sea. Examples include the Arctic Sea, the Gulf of Mexico, the Mediterranean Sea, the Caribbean Sea, and the South China Sea.Major Concept (XV)Location at sea is determined by a number of different methods depending on distance from land and position on the globe. Most methods rely on some sort of electronic navigational equipment as opposed to the astronomical methods used in the past.Related or supporting concepts:There are three principal systems used in modern navigation:a. radar : "ra dio d etecting a nd r anging"b. loran : "lo ng-ra nge n avigation"c. satellite navigationRadar systems emit bursts of energy that travel outward and then return after reflecting off distant objects. By carefully measuring the travel time of the reflected energy, you can determine distance quite accurately. Radar is only useful when you are close enough to land for signals to be reflected back to the vessel.Loran systems utilize fixed stations that transmit radio waves at specific frequencies. A loran receiver on board a ship can detect these transmissions. The difference in arrival time of the signals from pairs of stations is a measure of distance from the stations. Unlike radar, loran can be used far from land as long as the vessel is within receiving distance of loran stations. In addition, loran units can be interfaced with computers to automatically calculate latitude and longitude and to determine the ship's course to some pre-determined location.The most accurate technique is satellite navigation. By monitoring signals from orbitingsatellites, it is possible to obtain a location with an accuracy as great as 30 meters (or about 100 feet).Modern electronic navigation methods permit the determination of location in any kind of weather and at any time of day. Small Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers are now routinely used by hikers, hunters, boaters, and others who need to know their location in the outdoors.GPS SatelliteGPS Receiver二、IntroductionWordsSome useful vocabularyGeographyPhysical geographyHuman geography•Physical geographyClimate climatology meteorologyGeomorphology landform topographyWater Hydrology hydrosphereVegetation plant BiosphereSoil PedosphereAir AtmosphereRock Lithosphere Geology•physical geography studies the spatial patterns of weather and climate, soils, vegetation, animals, water in all its forms, and landforms. Physical geography also examines the interrelationships of these phenomena to human activities. This sub-field of geography is academically known as the Human-Land Tradition. This area of geography has seen very keen interest and growth in the last few decades because of the acceleration of human induced environmental degradation. Thus, physical geography's scope is much broader than the simple spatial study of nature. It also involves the investigation of how humans are influencing nature.•Geomorphology - studies the various landforms on the Earth's surface.•Pedology - is concerned with the study of soils.•Biogeography- is the science that investigates the spatial relationships of plants and animals.•Hydrology - is interested in the study of water in all its forms.•Meteorology - studies the circulation of the atmosphere over short time spans.•Climatology - studies the effects of weather on life and examines the circulation of the atmosphere over longer time spans.•Geology - studies the form of the Earth's surface and subsurface, and the processes that create and modify it.•Ecology- the scientific study of the interactions between organisms and their environment.•Oceanography - the science that examines the biology, chemistry, physics, and geology of oceans.•Cartography - the technique of making maps.•Astronomy - the science that examines celestial bodies and the cosmos.•The development of GeographyAfter 1950, the following two forces largely determined the nature of physical geography: •(1). The Quantitative Revolution - measurement became the central focus of research in Physical Geography. It was used primarily for hypothesis testing. With measurement came mapping, models, statistics, mathematics, and hypothesis testing. The quantitative revolution was also associated with a change in the way in which physical geographers studied the Earth and its phenomena. Researchers now began investigating process rather than mere description of the environment.•(2). The study of Human/Land Relationships - the influence of human activity on the environment was becoming very apparent after 1950. As a result, many researchers in physical geography began studying the influence of humans on the environment. Some of the dominant themes in these studies included: environmental degradation andresource use; natural hazards and impact assessment; and the effect of urbanization and land-use change on natural environments.•The following list describes some of the important future trends in physical geography research:(1).Continued development of applied physical geography for the analysis and correction of human-induced environmental problems. A student of applied physical geography uses theoretical information from the field of physical geography to manage and solve problems related to natural phenomena found in the real world.•(2).Remote Sensing- Advances in technology have caused the development of many new instruments for the monitoring of the Earth's resources and environment from airborne and space platforms. Also see section2e. The most familiar use of remote sensing technology is to monitor the Earth's weather for forecasting•(3).Geographic Information Systems- A geographic information system (GIS) merges information in a computer database with spatial coordinates on a digital map.Geographic information dystems are becoming increasingly more important for the management of resources.•Geologic Time ScaleLecture 2•Geologic Time Scale•New wordsCenozoic EraQuaternary Period Tertiary PeriodMesozoic EraCretaceous Period Jurassic Period Triassic PeriodPaleozoic EraPermian Period Carboniferous Period Devonian Period Silurian Period Ordovician Period Cambrian Period•一、THE CENOZOIC ERA•The Cenozoic Era is the most recent of the three major subdivisions of geologic time.•The Cenozoic Era spans only about 65 million years, from the end of the Cretaceous Period (Mesozoic Era), and the extinction of non-avian dinosaurs, to the present. The Cenozoic is sometimes called the Age of Mammals, because the largest animals found on land during this time have been mammals. This is a misnomer for several reasons. First, the history of mammals began long before the Cenozoic Era began. Second, the diversity。

的划分。 地理相关分析的数学方法主要是聚类分析法,是目前区划工作中运用较广泛的一 种区划方法。如果与叠置法配合使用,其区界划分效果更好。 (三)主导标志法 这是一种贯彻主导因素原则的具体应用方法。分区时,通过综合分析选取某种反 映地域分异因素的自然标志或指标作为分区的依据,并且同一级区域单位基本按同一 标志划分。应当指出,每一个区划单位都存在有自己的分异主导因素,但反映这种主 导因素的常常不仅是一种标志,而是一组相互联系的标志或指标,故可从中挑选出具 有决定意义的某一主导标志(如某一气候指标等值线)确定区界。但是,这时若不参 考其它自然地理要素和指标(如地貌、植被、土壤等)对区界进行订正,有时也会产 生随意性而不符合客观实际。所以说,主导标志并非只注意某一标志而忽视其它标志, 这种方法实质上是综合性原则与主导因素原则相结合的产物,它被认为是当前最好的 区划方法。主导标志法的定量方法可采用主成分分析方法,在众多指标中确定少量相 关指标组成新的数据集,然后进一步应用聚类分析法进行分区和划定区界。在主成分 分析与聚类分析相结合分区的方面,已有成功的实例。 (四)顺序划分法 该法即“自上而下”的区划法。此法着眼于地域分异的普遍规律——地带性分异 与非地带性分异,按区域的相对一致和空间连续性,划分出最高级区域单位,然后逐 级向下划分低级单位。图 27 即是采用这种方法进行区划的一种示意图式。 (五) 合并法 该法又称“自下而上”的区划方法。该法是从划分最低级的区划单位开始,然后 根据空间连续性原则和相对一致性原则,把它们依次合并为高级单位。在实际工作中, 合并法通常是在土地类型图的基础上进行的。图 28 即是合并法的一种示意图式。通常 自然(地理)区即为自然区划的基本地域单位,应用合并法可再将各自然区依照上述 合并原则,依次继续向上合并成更高级单位的自然区划图。 (六)古地理法 该法是在进行区划工作之初,通过实地古地理和历史自然地理事实的调查,或蒐 集有关资料及古文献以及区域地质史资料,了解研究区的区域分异发展史,初步依据 其区域发育过程的差异,分出不同的区域等级和不同等级的区域单位。 区域单位的古地理研究法是阐明区域分异历史过程的有效方法。但因目前对该法 的应用尚缺乏比较成熟的经验,特别是在历史自然地理资料蒐集难度大的情况下,对

澳大利亚自然地理教案设计

澳大利亚自然地理教案设计

澳大利亚自然地理教案设计Australia is one of the world's largest and most unique countries when it comes to natural geography. Its geography holds a diverse range of ecosystems, which include rainforests, coral reefs, deserts, and savannas, making it an exciting subject for teaching. For Australian educators, designing an effective natural geography lesson plan can be a daunting task. So, this article will provide an overview of designing a natural geography lesson plan for teachers who want to teach this subject effectively.Purpose of the Lesson PlanThe purpose of the lesson plan is to provide a comprehensive understanding of Australia's natural geography in a manner that is engaging and informative. The lesson plan will cover various topics ranging from ecosystems to landforms, weather patterns, and their impact on the environment. The lesson plan will aim to give students an overview of the fundamental concepts of natural geography while also encouraging them to think critically about the environment and how they can protect it.Learning ObjectivesTo make the lesson plan effective, it is essential to have clear and measurable learning objectives. The following are some of the learning objectives for the lesson plan:1.Students will be able to define a broad range ofecosystems present in Australia, their features andclassification.2.Students will be able to identify regionallandforms in Australia and their causes.3.Students will be able to explain how weatherpatterns affect the environment and the ecosystem.4.Students will be able to describe the impact ofhumans on the environment, including pollution and climate change.5.Students will be able to appreciate the importanceof protecting the environment through conservationmeasures.The Lesson PlanThe lesson plan will be divided into five main sections, each section covering different aspects of natural geography as described below:Section 1: IntroductionThe introduction section aims to familiarize students with the subject of natural geography. Teachers can develop a class discussion about what natural geography means, its importance, and what students expect to learn about the world around them. The teacher can also ask students to share what they already know about the topic and encourage questions to kickstart the lesson.Section 2: Fundamentals of Ecosystems and BiomesThe second section of the lesson plan covers the concept of ecosystems and biomes. Teachers can introduce the characteristics of ecosystems and the different types of biomes found in Australia, including rainforests, deserts, and coastal ecosystems. By using multimedia resources, teachers can provide visual representations of different ecosystem types and their characteristics, which can help students create a mental image of how different biomes look.Section 3: Landforms and Their CausesIn the third section, students will learn about the diverse landforms found in Australia. The teacher can take the students through the different types of landforms found in different regions, including mountains, valleys, canyons, and plains. The teacher can also explore the different processes that led to the formation of these landforms. Case studies of specific landforms in Australia, like Uluru and Great Barrier Reef, can be used to provide concrete examples that students can relate to.Section 4: Weather Patterns and Their Impact on the EnvironmentPart four of the lesson plan covers weather patterns and how they impact the environment. Teachers can describe the different types of weather patterns, including tropical storms, droughts, and wildfires, and explain how these can affect the environment and living organisms. The teacher can also provide examples of how the environment has changed due to climate change and human activities.Section 5: Conservation of Natural ResourcesThe last section focuses on environmental protection and conservation measures. The teacher can highlight the importance of conserving natural resources and protecting the environment. The teacher can encourage students to think critically about how they can contribute to environmental conservation and explore environmentally friendly behaviors and activities they can engage in. A class debate on environmentally controversial topics can also foster critical thinking from different perspectives.ConclusionIn conclusion, the lesson plan must be well thought through to achieve the set learning objectives. When designed correctly, it promotes an appreciation of the environment and its significance, which can guide students to be more environmentally conscious and practice environmentally friendly behaviors. Teachers can use different teaching strategies - such as visuals, case studies, debates, and class discussions - for effective teaching and better student response. With the knowledge acquired, students can be better equipped to lead healthy lives in a healthy environment.。

自然地理学教学计划

自然地理学教学计划

自然地理学教学计划Teaching natural geography is a crucial part of a comprehensive education system. It helps students develop a deep understanding and appreciation for the natural world around them. In order to create an effective natural geography teaching plan, several key requirements must be taken into consideration.Firstly, it is important to incorporate a variety of teaching methods and resources. Natural geography is a multidisciplinary subject that encompasses various aspects such as physical geography, human geography, and environmental science. Therefore, a well-rounded teaching plan should include a combination of lectures, interactive activities, field trips, and multimedia resources. Thiswill ensure that students receive a comprehensive and engaging learning experience.Additionally, the teaching plan should focus on hands-on learning experiences. Natural geography is bestunderstood when students have the opportunity to observe and interact with the natural environment. Field trips to local parks, nature reserves, or even geological sites can provide students with real-life examples and practical applications of the concepts they learn in the classroom. By immersing themselves in nature, students can develop a deeper connection and appreciation for the natural world.Furthermore, the teaching plan should emphasize the importance of sustainability and environmental stewardship. Natural geography is not only about understanding theEarth's physical features, but also about recognizing the impact of human activities on the environment. It iscrucial to educate students about the importance of conserving natural resources, protecting biodiversity, and mitigating the effects of climate change. By instilling a sense of environmental responsibility, students can become active participants in creating a sustainable future.In order to cater to the diverse learning needs and abilities of students, the teaching plan should also incorporate differentiated instruction. This meansproviding various learning materials and activities that address different learning styles and abilities. For example, visual learners may benefit from maps, diagrams, and photographs, while kinesthetic learners may prefer hands-on activities and experiments. By tailoring the teaching methods to individual students, educators can ensure that all students have equal opportunities to succeed and excel in natural geography.Moreover, the teaching plan should foster critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Natural geography often involves analyzing complex data, interpreting maps, and making connections between different geographical phenomena. By engaging students in inquiry-based learning activities, such as conducting research projects or solving real-world geographical problems, they can developessential skills that will be valuable in their academic and professional lives.Lastly, the teaching plan should promote global awareness and cultural understanding. Natural geography is not limited to a single geographical region but encompassesthe entire planet. It is important for students to learn about different cultures, traditions, and perspectives in relation to the natural environment. This can be achieved through exploring case studies from different parts of the world, inviting guest speakers from diverse backgrounds, and encouraging discussions on global environmental issues. By fostering a sense of global citizenship, students can develop empathy and a broader understanding of the interconnectedness of the world.In conclusion, a comprehensive natural geography teaching plan should incorporate a variety of teaching methods and resources, provide hands-on learning experiences, emphasize sustainability and environmental stewardship, cater to diverse learning needs, fostercritical thinking skills, and promote global awareness. By addressing these requirements, educators can create an engaging and effective learning environment that will empower students to become informed and responsible global citizens.。

The lower the temperature, the more the molecules of water vapor in the cloud cling together. Then they form droplets of water. Usually droplets form around dust or other particles in the air when the dew point is reached. If ice crystals are in the cloud, even more droplets may form.In clouds, condensation may be so rapid that millions of droplets of water are formed. As these droplets collect more molecules and therefore become heavier, their weight makes them fall to the earth. If the temperature of the air is above freezing the drops will fall as rain.When the air high above the earth is well below freezing, the moisture in the air does not form raindrops. Instead, it forms snow. Snowflakes take on many interesting shapes. They seem to be formed around a center. Snow is made up of millions of these flakes, each a bit of water vapor that in freezing temperatures was changed into a flake of snow.Snowflakes are really crystals; they are water molecules grouped in a hexagonal pattern. It is interesting to study snowflake crystals under a hand lens.Sometimes droplets of water start out as rain and change into another form on their way to the earth. The raindrops may start downward through a layer of warm air and then strike a mass of cold air, where each raindrop freezes. These frozen raindropsfall to the earth as sleet; skeet us frozen rain.Sometimes still another change may take place in drops of rain. During a thunderstorm, swift upward currents of air usually carry raindrops with them. As the air grows colder, these raindrops may form little balls of ice. In a mass of warm air, they may get a coating of moisture, which freezes as soon as they are tossed up again into a colder mass of air. Up and down they are carried, acquiring more and more layers of ice. This goes on until the balls of ice become heavy enough to fall to the earth as hailstones. If you cut a hailstone in two, you can see the layers of ice.Some scientists think that hailstones are formed in a different way. A hailstone nucleus, a tiny droplet of water that is frozen, may form high in the atmosphere. As it falls through a cloud, it meets cold water droplets and snowflakes which stick to this nucleus. The hailstone may meet many of these droplets and snowflakes before it falls from the cloud to the earth. As the droplets of water stick to the hailstone, they add a clear layer of ice. As snowflakes stick to it, they form a cloudy layer. This theory explains why clear and cloudy layers are found inside the hailstone when it is cut open.EXERCISESthe following sentences with nouns formed from the verbs given in brackets._of rain depends on the _and the _of tiny droplets of water vapour in the cloud.(form/condense/combine)the droplets are heavy enough to fall, _can take place.(precipitate)_and _of water can be observed in everyday life.(evaporate/condense)_of ice to water and water to water vapour by heating is a good _of the change of state of matter.(convert/illustrate)100 equal _are made after the _by_of the boiling point of water and the melting point of ice.(divide/determine/observe)best _of what takes place is the _of good examples.(explain/provide)7.

Translate the following passage into Chinese.In some regions, particularly the dry ones ,there is water vapor in the air, but the conditions may seldom be right for this vapor to condense and fall as rain or snow. Rain, snow, hail, dew, and are known as precipitation. Even where rainfall is usually moderate, there is at times a lack of rain. A drought may lead to serious water shortages, as it did in New York City in 1949 and 1950 and again in 1963 to 1966.In the summer of 1949, New York City’s reservoirs were down to one third of what they normally held. Several billion gallons of water were being used each day. So serious was the water shortage that people were asked to have one bathless, shaveless, and washless day a week. Cars went unwashed, lawns and parks unsprinkled. Even a glass of water was not servedin restaurants unless asked for.

From the characteristics show, particularly the physical and chemical properties we can distinguish several thousand minerals, each defined by its unique set of properties. Thus all grains or crystals of quartz have just about the same qualities, regardless of the kind of rock in which they are found. Some minerals, particularly those that have a more complex mixture of atoms,vary slightly in their properties, depending on their precise composition. A mineral like garnet, for example, has a number of varieties, each with its own range of composition, such as the proportions of iron and other elements, and hence, properties. Rocks are not as uniquely defined by their properties as minerals are. Because of the immense number of ways in which the thousands of minerals can be combined, the geologist is faced with a bewildering array of rock types. The only way for us to make order out of this array is to classify like with like and to sort out by general type. The major division of rocks into igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic is just such an aid. Within each major division there are many groups and types. Using characteristic properties, we can divide the rock kingdom into several hundred general types, each with its own more or less distinctive earmarks.Despite all of these numbers, it is remarkable how much can be done even if only a small number of the most common minerals and rocks are known. In most parts of the world a field geologist can make an accurate geologic map by knowing only a few dozen major minerals and even fewer common rock types. This simplification is possible because most of the thousands of known minerals are either rare or unusual on the one hand or subspecies or varieties on the other. Thus the geologist who can recognize garnet will do well, even though a mineral sophisticate who can distinguish the many varieties of garnet by their slightly different chemical compositions might do better. Naturally, the more we can distinguish, the more the information gleaned, and the greater the power of our theories of explanation. Than is why professional petrologists have to know a great deal about mineralogy.EXERCISESthe words in Column A with their definitions in Column B, placing the appropriate letters in the blanks: Column A Column B_1.

The varied minerals of the earth areunderstood in terms of their architecture — the way in which their atoms are arranged to make crystal structures. The kinds of atoms and their type of chemical bonding determine not only the crystal structures but the chemical and physical properties of minerals, all of which are used for their identification. Rocks are divided into the three major groups, igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary on the basis of origin. They are further subdivided within each group according to mineral composition and texture, which provide the data that allow us to interpret details of their origin.Lesson ThreeNEW WORDSn.火山活动n.地壳vi.破碎,断裂a.熔化的vi.延伸,延展n.,a.内部的n.火山n.行为,举止,情况n.火山学10. crystallization n.结晶(作用)11. fluid n.流体,液体vi.,vt.逃走,漏出,逸出,避免13. crack n.裂隙n.火山学家15. refer vt.,vi将…归入,认为…属于,提到a.,n.喷出的17. toothpaste n.牙膏18. extrude vt.挤出,使喷出19. eruption n.喷发,爆发20. occur vi.发生,出现21. magma n.岩浆22. dissolve vt.,vi.溶解23. fissure n.裂缝24. atmospheric a.大气25. explosively ad.爆炸(爆发)性的26. chill vt.使冷却27. atmosphere n.大气28. froth vt.,vi.,n.(使)起泡沫,泡沫29. burst vt.,vi.破裂,爆发,喷出30. bubble n.泡,泡沫31. vent n.喷口32. cone n.圆锥形(物)vi.燃烧,放光34. column n.圆柱PHRASES AND EXPRESSIONS(to) be charged with …充满着less and less 越来越少at all 完全,根本(常用在否定句中)in much the same way以大体相同的方式TEXTVOLCANISMWhen the earth’s crust fractures, molten matter may flow from the break if it extends deep enough into the interior of the earth. A volcano may form. Earth scientists have studied the behavior and composition of molten rock materials and the forms that are produced . This branch of earth science is called volcanology.Some igneous rocks are formed by crystallization of fluid matter that has escaped through deep cracks in the eart h’s crust. Volcanologists refer to these rocks as extrusive rocks, or extrusives. If a tube of toothpaste has a crack in it and you press on the tube, some of the paste is pushed out. That is, the paste has been extruded. Volcanic eruptions occur in much the same way. The magma within the earth may be heavily charged with gases and steam. These are under such great pressure that they are dissolved in the magma. If a fissure develops in a region where the magma is heavily charged with steam and otherdissolved gases, the fluid magma rises through the fissure. As it rises, the pressure on it becomes less and less. The gases and steam expand, producing a force that helps to move the molten materials to the surface of the earth.When they reach the surface of the earth, the only pressure against them is atmospheric pressure—pounds per square inch. The steam and gases now expand suddenly and explosively , producing additional great force. The molten materials, laden with rapidly expanding gas and steam, may be thrown high into the air in a wild and noisy eruption.In this kind of an eruption, the molten materials are quickly chilled by the much cooler atmosphere. They fall back to the earth as solid fragments of extrusive igneous rocks. During an explosive eruption the molten fluids may be so heavily charged with gas and steam that they froth. Bursting of the bubbles in the molten froth produces billions of tiny fragments of mineral matter, which were once part of the bubble walls. These tiny fragments may be carried upward into the atmosphere by the explosive force of the eruption. These they form great clouds of volcanic dust. Slightly larger fragments of the froth may fall back around the vent, or opening, in the crust to make a cone-shaped pile of volcanic ash.The light produced during volcanic activity is the result of the glowing of gases and molten fluids. The “smoke” of a volcano is not smoke at all, but the column of volcanic dust, steam, and other gases that are given off from the molten fluid. EXERCISESI.
