27、rning / afternoon, boys and girls! Ss: Morning Mr.T: Last class we have talked about clone, we all know it is not a dream. Now everyone, if I give you a chance to clone what will you restore then? S: Edison, dinosaurs, Japanese wolf, Einstein.T: Do you want to clone Hitler? S: No. Hitler is a danger

28、ous person.T: If some terrorists master this clone method, they may bring disasters. All your choices are excellent. Today we will learn another passage about cloning, from which we will know whether we can bring dinosaurs back to life. Ask the students to go through some facts of cloning.T: From th

29、ese facts we know human beings have achieved great progress in cloning. Now read the text carefully to get the answers for these questions: what animals have people cloned?S: Frogs, mice, cows, sheep, bisons, cats, and dogs.T: Good job. Answer the question: What are the common characteristics of the

30、se animals?Ss: They are nowadays animals.T: Yeah, I think you must have seen the film Jurassic Park, in which a scientist clones several different kinds of extinct dinosaurs.

31、e cannot clone dinosaurs, because its difficult for us to get its DNA.T: Good job. Its only a dream. Dinosaurs disappeared 65,000,000 years ago. So the chance of dinosaurs ever returning to the earth is merely a dream.Step Read and answer (P16)To answer these three questions, teacher can give the st

32、udents some examples as explanation, for example, Question 1. T: Now think about this question: if in the world there is only one sheep and human beings want to clone more. Some days later a Dolly appears, then many more. But one day all sheep get the same deadly disease. Now please think about what

33、 the results are. S: Maybe they would all die. T: Why? S: Because all sheep have the same arrangement of genes. T: Right. Now can you answer Question 1? Why shouldnt you clone an extinct animal unless there is enough diversity in the group? S: It is useless to clone an animal if there is not enough

34、diversity in the group for it to overcome illnesses.T: Why is it wrong to clone an extinct animal if it would have to live in a zoo?S: If the cloned animals have to live in the zoo, it is unfair to them. They need freedom.T. Why cant you clone the DNA of animals that have been extinct longer than 10

35、,000 years?S: Dinosaurs disappeared 65,000,000 yeas ago. So the chance of dinosaurs returning to the earth is merely a dream.Step Discussion (Question 2)This is a speaking task. Ask the students to have a discussion in groups, organize their words properly, and give vivid description of the chosen a

36、nimals.T: Now look at the table on page 16, discuss in pairs which extinct animals described are worth restoring by means of cloning. Choose one animal and use the information to help you argue why this animal should be restored to the earth. Give the students six minutes to discuss.S1: I think Grea

37、t Auk is a wonder. Because it is a very large bird that cannot fly. The useful thing about it is that its feather doesnt absorb water. I think if we wear clothes made of its feather, we will not worry about rain.S2: I agree with you. But I am happy to accept Dodo bird because it is friendly and not

38、harmful. I like gentle animals. It can also lay large eggs and its meat is tasty, but I dont think I will eat its meat.T: From your answers I think these animals are all useful and they all should be restored to the earth. At the same time, we should try our best to protect them. Do you agree with m

39、e? S: Yes.Step Writing a report (P17)Deal with Questions three and four. Divide the whole class into four groups. Then they can have a competition. T: Now everyone, imagine all of you are owners of your chosen animal. Now work together, and give us a vivid description of your pet, then I will decide

40、 which one is the best to be resorted to the earth.Several minutes later, the students give performances. At the same time, list some major points on the blackboard.T: Well done everyone. It is really hard for me to choose, let us vote OK?Step TALKING (P55)Ask the students to talk about the question

41、s with the teachers help.T: Look at the questions on page 54. Do you know how to show your opinion? You can discuss the following questions with your partner and use these expressions on page 54.1. How would you feel about having a clone of yourself in the family?2. What problems did you have growin

42、g up and how can you help him / her avoid them.Step HomeworkT: Write down your feelings and attitudes towards clone. Combine them into a composition. Sample version 1: In my opinion it is wrong to clone human beings. If my parents decide to have a clone made of me, I will feel very sad and I will ne

43、ver accept the clone as a member of my family or as my friend because I think it is unfair to natural things.We are all sons of nature, birth or death is a natural thing. The day we born, it destined we are independent. Nobody has the right to change ourselves. If one day I were to be cloned to anot

44、her person, he would kill me, because I lost some original characters. I hope we should respect human beings, and not change any original things.Sample version 2:I think the cloning represents the progress of the mankind. But it still has many problems to work out, the law, the ethic and especially

45、the goals and purposes for cloning. However, we are actually doing much of this research for the improvement of life for humans. We should get benefit from cloning.In China, the government has put out written policy on human cloning. It has officially banned research on human cloning for reproductio

46、n purposes, but allows cloning on embryonic stem cells and remedial cloning. As we all known, everything cant be perfect. We should treat the cloning with correct attitudes. We should know the advantages and disadvantages of cloning.Section learning about language and grammar(2-3個(gè)課時(shí))I. Teaching goal

50、: Let me have a try. In my opinion it is wrong to clone human beings. If my parents decided to have a clone made of me, I would feel very sad and I would never accept the clone as a member of the family or as my friend.T: Good job!Step Grammar (20-25分鐘師生互動(dòng)講解，10-15分鐘做練習(xí)，8-10分鐘講解)T: Do you know the ap

51、positive clauses? Please pick out three more examples from the reading passage.Sample answers: The fact is that they are natural clones of each other.The whole scientific would follow the progress of the first successful clone, Dolly the sheep.Altogether Dolly lived for six years, half the length of

52、 the life of the original sheep.T: Now let me explain something about the appositive clauses. The appositive clause is a clause used as an appositive. The clause is an explanation to the noun before. The appositive clause belongs to noun clauses. Most of the appositive clauses may be introduced by t

53、he conjunction that. A content clause is frequently in apposition with such nouns as fact, news, idea, thought, question, reply, report, remark, hope, belief, suggestion etc. 在句中指代同一事物，用以說(shuō)明或解釋該事物的成分叫做同位語(yǔ)。單詞、短語(yǔ)和從句都可用作同位語(yǔ)；同位語(yǔ)通常位于所說(shuō)明的先行詞之后，常用來(lái)說(shuō)明身份、職務(wù)及稱號(hào)等情況。1. 名詞或名詞性短語(yǔ)作同位語(yǔ)，有時(shí)可用逗號(hào)與其說(shuō)明的名詞分開(kāi)；代詞、數(shù)詞作同位語(yǔ)，一般不用

54、逗號(hào)分隔。如：Mr Brown, one of my best friends, enjoys watching TV. 我的一位好朋友布朗先生喜歡看電視。They each have different opinions about it. 他們對(duì)那件事各有不同的意見(jiàn)。（each作they的同位語(yǔ)）She bought some apples for us three. 她給我們?nèi)齻€(gè)人買了些蘋(píng)果。（three作us的同位語(yǔ)）2. 動(dòng)名詞、動(dòng)詞不定式、形容詞及介詞短語(yǔ)作同位語(yǔ)，有時(shí)用逗號(hào)分隔。如：He tried to achieve the impossible, earning a mil

55、lion dollars in a week. 他試圖實(shí)現(xiàn)不可能的事，即一周賺一百萬(wàn)美元。He has a plan to rebuild this city. 他有重建這座城市的計(jì)劃。（動(dòng)詞不定式作同位語(yǔ)）He read all kinds of books, ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign. 他讀了很多書(shū)，古今中外都有（adj.作同位語(yǔ)）3. especially, mainly, mostly, for example, namely, that is, that is to say, or, in other words, such as

56、, say, chiefly等單詞或短語(yǔ)后面均可接同位語(yǔ)。如：Only one person can do the job, namely you. 只有一個(gè)人能做這項(xiàng)工作，那就是你。He is coming next Friday, that is to say, on the 25th. 他下星期五，也就是二十五號(hào)來(lái)。4. 同位語(yǔ)從句一般放在它所解釋或說(shuō)明的名詞的后面，但有時(shí)為了避免頭重腳輕或使句子的結(jié)構(gòu)更加緊湊，可將同位語(yǔ)從句放在句末，從而造成同位語(yǔ)從句被謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞或其他成分詞分隔的現(xiàn)象。如：Word came that he left for Shanghai yesterday. 消息

57、傳來(lái)說(shuō)他昨天去上海了。（同位語(yǔ)從句被came分隔）5. advice （建議）, demand, sugges- tion, proposal, order, request等名詞后面的同位語(yǔ)從句，謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞常用“(should +) 動(dòng)詞原形”構(gòu)成的虛擬語(yǔ)氣。如：He gave orders that the work (should) be done at once. 他下令那項(xiàng)工作要立刻完成。The old pianist wouldnt listen to our repeated request that he (should) play in public again. 我們一再懇求那位老鋼琴家再公開(kāi)演奏一次，但他卻不答應(yīng)。More examples: Nobody shares my belief that he was mad. My suggestion that he was mad was not accepted.They are familiar with the opinion th
