2019-2020年高中英語(yǔ) Unit 1 Great scientists Period 4 優(yōu)秀教案 新人教版必修5 In this period the teaching and learning will center on reading and writing.As usual, the teacher can begin the teaching with reviewing the former knowledge.The following part is the lead-in—talking about some scientists, because this unit talks about great scientists and this passage is about Nicolaus Copernicus and his theory. As to reading training, the teacher should still develop the students’ ability of scanning and skimming.So at the beginning, get the students to prepare some knowledge for reading. For that purpose, the teacher will firstly ask for information about Copernicus according to what the students already know. Then the teacher can have the students listen to the tape and find out whether the statements are true or false.It is designed to train the students’ listening and to check whether the students have previewed the passage well.Later, the teacher will ask the students to skim it and find out the main idea for each part.The purpose of doing these is to help the students to form the good habit of reading with some strategy.When reading a passage, we had better first read it as a whole, that is, understand the structure of the passage and catch the main idea with the help of the structure and title. The following step is to read the passage for the details.The teacher can design some teaching activities to help the students to know about more and more information by taking part in the reading activities.As a result, the teacher should be careful, cautious and creative when designing the reading activities.The reading activities had better be various, which can catch more students’ attention. At the end of reading, some activities should be designed to check the students’ understanding by saying something about Copernicus and making up a dialogue between Copernicus and his friend.The practicing helps the students improve their speaking and arouse their creativity.The petition is held to make the students take part in the class activities actively.At the same time, let the students consider the writing purpose. Besides reading, the students are also expected to learn and practise their writing skill.By studying the passage, the students should learn to do persuasive writing to change someone else’s decision.The teacher should give the students some advice on how to plan the writing and develop the writing—beginning, body and conclusion.

(Two minutes later.) T: Have you found out the different theories?Who’d like to have a try? S: Before Copernicus’ theory, they believed God had made the earth, so it was the center of the solar system. T: Very good.What about Copernicus’ theory? S: Copernicus found that the sun is the center of the solar system and the planets go round it except the moon. T: That’s right!Anything else? S: He also found the earth is spinning as it goes round the sun. T: Great!(Show the plete form to the students and let them read it.) Just now, we knew Copernicus didn’t publish his theory immediately he found it.Can you tell me why? S: Because he didn’t want to be attacked by the Christian Church.He published it many years later.

Research and Activities The theme of the activity is“a great scientist in our eyes”.Get the students to work in groups and introduce a great scientist in their minds.First, they need to decide which scientist they think is the greatest.Then, collect as much information as possible about the scientist, such as his/her life, achievements, and so on.In the end, each group presents it to the whole class.The activity is designed to arouse the students’ interest in science, cultivate their team spirit and learn something from these great scientists.It also helps them learn to search for information and organize it well. Reference for Teaching Nicolaus Copernicus Born on Feb.19, 1473, in Thorn (Torun), Poland, Nicolaus Copernicus was destined to bee, through the publication of his heliocentric theory 70 years later, one of the seminal figures in the history of scientific thought.The son of a prosperous merchant, he was raised after his father’s death by a maternal uncle, who enabled him to enter the University of Krakow, then famous for its mathematics, philosophy, and astronomy curriculum.This experience stimulated the young Copernicus to study further liberal arts at Bologna (1496-1501), medicine at Padua, and law at the University of Ferrara, from which he emerged in 1503 with the doctorate in canon law.Shortly afterward he returned to Poland and eventually settled permanently at the cathedral in Frauenberg (Frombork), less than 100 miles from his birthplace.Through his uncle’s influence he had been elected a canon of the church even before his journey to Italy.Copernicus not only faithfully performed his ecclesiastical duties, but also practiced medicine, wrote a treatise on monetary reform, and turned his attention to a subject in which he had long been interested-astronomy. By May 1514 Copernicus had written De revolutionibus orbium coelestium (On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Spheres, 1543).This classic work challenged the geocentric cosmology that had been accepted since the time of Aristotle.Copernicus proposed that the earth goes round the sun with the other planets. The new theory that Copernicus espoused in De revolutionibus exhibits a peculiar mixture of both radical and conservative elements.In the midst of his radical reordering of the structure of the universe, Copernicus still adhered to the ancient Aristotelian doctrines of solid celestial spheres and perfect circular motion of heavenly bodies, and he held essentially intact the entire Aristotelian physics of motion.Moreover, with significant innovations, he clung to the Ptolemaic representation of planetary motion by means of plicated binations of circles called epicycles.Although Copernicus realized that his theory implied an enormous increase in the size of the universe, he declined to pronounce it infinite. These aspects of the Copernican treatise do not mitigate the novelty or the impact of the final theory, or the author’s firm conviction that his system was an accurate representation of physical reality.Rather, they indicate the scope of the work that lay ahead and that was effectively addressed in the next century when Kepler determined the ellipticity of planetary orbits, Galileo formulated his new concept of motion, and Newton espoused his theory of universal gravitation. The enunciation of the heliocentric theory by Copernicus marked the beginning of the scientific revolution, and of a new view of a greatly enlarged universe.It was a shift away from the fortable anthropocentrism of the ancient and medieval world.A scientific theory that reflected so profoundly on humanity was not weled by the church, and it was only after the publication (1540) of Narratio prima (A First Account), by an enthusiastic supporter named Rheticus, that the aged Copernicus agreed to mit to print the theory already outlined in 1514.An undocumented, but often repeated, story holds that Copernicus received a printed copy of his treatise on his deathbed.He died on May 24, 1543. Shenzhou Ⅵ touches down BEIJING, Oct.17 (Xinhua/chinadaily.cn)—The return module of China’s second manned spacecraft Shenzhou Ⅵ has returned to the Earth, and the astronauts are safe. The module and astronauts touched down in the main landing field in Central Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region at 4: 33 A.M.Monday after a five-day flight. Fei Junlong got out of the return module by himself first, followed by Nie Haisheng. The two said they were in good condition when answering questions from journalists. The two People’s Liberation Army colonels received a hero’s wele.Jubilant residents in Nie’s home town in central Hubei province set off firecrackers and performed traditional lion dances. Fei’s mother wept on learning of his safe return, and his father declared, “The motherland is so great!” State television showed the astronauts emerging from Shenzhou Ⅵ unaided, pausing atop the charred reentry craft to wave to the recovery team. Chen Bingde, chief of China’s manned space project, declares the mission a plete success. The return moduel landed one kilometer away from the target, and six kilometers from the Shenzhou V’s landing site. The two men are expected to be taken by a helicopter to a local airport to board a flight to Beijing.Both will be in isolation for observation for 14 days after the mission, but family members will be allowed to visit, the Beijing Youth Daily newspaper said Sunday. Fei and Nie blasted off Wednesday on China’s second manned space mission.It came almost exactly two years after China’s first manned space flight. China is only the third country to send humans into orbit on its own, after Russia and the United States. State television showed scores of technicians monitoring the landing at puter screens at a Beijing control center.They showed no reaction when an announcer said the capsule had landed but broke into cheers after word came that the astronauts were safe, the Associated Press reported. Chinese leaders including the top legislator Wu Bangguo were shown on television watching the landing from the control center. The mission had“acplished the planned experiments and accumulated valuable technical data, ”Xinhua said Sunday. “We feel good, our work is going smoothly and our life is happy, ”Fei was quoted as saying Sunday evening before the craft began its re-entry maneuvers.“We will do our utmost to fulfill the mission.” “We’re grateful for the deep love and concern by all Chinese people, the Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan patriots, ”Nie said. Shenzhou 6 orbited the Earth 76 times and traveled more than 1.9 million miles.The mission was substantially longer and more plex than the xx flight, when astronaut Yang Liwei orbited for 21 1/2 hours before his capsule landed by parachute.
