●Welcome to the Unit
Step 1: Brainstorming
1. Boys and girls, have you ever heard something not only interesting and attractive but
also unexplained at all even with the help of modern science and technology in the world? Here are some pictures on the screen. Can you tell me what they are?
The chances for seeing a UFO are greater for those people who live in small towns or in the country and are outside late at night.
UFOs. Yes, they are called UFOs, meaning unidentified flying objects.
UFOs come in all shapes and sizes. Some are only small spots of light that move in strange patterns across the night sky.
Some can be seen in the daytime are often disk- or saucer-shaped.
UFOs were once seen in different parts of China. Look at some pictures on the screen, please.
Do you think such kind of things mysterious ? Are you curious about them? Besides UFOs, can you list anything more unexplained you’ve ever heard or seen in your daily life?
They are Yetis, the Loch Ness Monster, Stonehenge and the Pyramids in Egypt.
2. Open your books and let’s look at page one. Please read the instruction and focus on the five
pictures and illustrations first. Then answer the following questions:
Do the five pictures have something in common?
If so, what is it? (unexplained; no satisfactory answers; mysterious; no evidence...)
Can scientists explain these phenomena?
How do you feel about them?
Are you a bit curious?
3. Think of as many expressions as possible to answer the questions above. Try to make up some sentences and read them to the class. I will also offer you some examples.
They are mysterious because no satisfactory answers have been offered to explain them. Though these mysteries have puzzled people for a long time, they still show great interest in them. People feel puzzled by the mysteries.
4. Report the information you have collected to the class. Your answers are quite different. Now we will use some of your answers as a prompt for a class discussion. For example,
Teacher:What information have you got about UFOs?
Student A:...
Teacher:Do you think Student A's information interesting? What about the information
you've got? Is there anything different?
Student B:...
5. Please discuss the topics in pairs. Here are some questions.
About UFOs:
Have you ever read some reports about UFOs in China?
Are you interested in UFOs?
Are they really from another planet?
What do the letters UFO stand for?
Why do you think UFOs visit our planet?
About Yetis:
Where are the Himalayas?
What's the weather like there?
Why do some people make great efforts to climb them?

A Yeti is reported to be half-man and half-beast. Have you heard of it?
Do you think some climbers' disappearances are connected with Yetis?
About Stonehenge, the pyramids and the Loch Ness Monster:
Stonehenge and the pyramids in Egypt, the most famous of which is the Great Pyramid, are cultural relics.
Where were the pyramids built, on the east coast of the Nile or on the west coast?
What are the reasons?
Do you think the Great Pyramid is a wonder in human history?
