Do you think time travel is possible?2. If you have the chance to have a time travel, which places would you like to visit? And why?T: Glad to see you, everyone. Last time we learnt something about Li Qiangs travel to the future. Its fantastic, right? In our daily life, we also read lots of novels and watch many films about time travel. Can you name some great movies about time travel? S: Matrix! T: Yes. Good. Do you think time travel is possible? S: I think it is possible. In the past, people cannot travel to the moon, but now they can. So with the development of science, maybe one day, we can travel to the past or to the future. This is quite possible!T: If you have the chance to have a time travel, where would you like to visit? Why?S: I want to visit the space station. In the future, maybe we will find out some other creatures living in other planets. I would like to communicate with them and know something about them.Step Listening Task 1 Let the Ss listen to the material on page 23 twice. After listening for the first time, let them answer some simple questions to check their general understanding. T: OK. We know that Li Qiang had a chance to travel to the future, today we are going to learn where he would visit. Dont open your textbooks. Just listen. I will play the recording for you twice. For the first time, listen to the general idea Listen again and check the answers.1. How can “Wonderworld” make sure there is enough oxygen?2. How can “Wonderworld” make sure there is enough water?3. What is the advantage of living in “Wonderworld”?4. Do you think people will be healthy living in “Wonderworld”? Why?Task 3 Deal with the LISTENING on page 55. T: There will be lots of new inventions in the future. Here weve got a new kind of quilt. Why is it special? Lets listen to the tape and try to find it out. Meanwhile we should find out where these quilts are suitable to promote.Play the tape for the Ss twice. Let them do Exx. 13 on page 55 and then check the answers. Step HomeworkAfter class, let the Ss listen to the three materials repeatedly.SpeakingTeaching goals教学目标1. Target language目标语言Make predictions:Suppose that. I wonder if.Is it likely / unlikely that.?Do you imagine that.?Is it possible that.?Do you suppose that.?2. Ability goals 能力目标Enable the Ss to talk about things at present and predict things in the future. Enable the Ss to describe some imaginary products.3. Learning ability goals 学能目标Help the Ss learn how to talk about things in the future and describe some imaginary products.Teaching important difficult points教学重难点Teach the Ss to make predictions and express their ideas about future.Help the Ss make up their personal future plans.Teaching methods教学方法Pair work and group work; discussion and cooperation.Teaching aids教具准备A computer and a projector.Teaching procedures ways教学过程与方式Step I TalkingSet a scene for the Ss: A man who is living in AD 2046 comes to visit your city and wants to know something about jobs in your city. Ask the Ss to work in pairs to make out an introduction plan. Make a comparison between jobs at present and jobs in the future, and find out the changes and why these changes take place. T: In the first period of our unit, we discussed the changes between life in the past and life at present, also we make a prediction about our future, right? Today lets still talk about the future. Suppose a man of AD 2046 comes to our city, he wants to know something about jobs in our city. How will you introduce the following two kinds of jobs to him? Teachers and farmers. Give the Ss 1-2 minutes to discuss and then ask some of them to represent their opinions.T: OK. Who would like to talk about the job as a farmer?S: Nowadays farmers are still working very hard. Few of them use hi-tech machines, especially in developing countries. They have to work most by hand everyday. Sometimes they will use some machines such as trucks, seeding-machines, etc. In developed countries, agriculture has been computerized. Farmers in those countries are much easier. T: Good. What about teachers?S: Nowadays lots of students stay in the classrooms to listen to their teachers. And the teachers have to use chalk, and sometimes they use computers.Set another scene.T: So it seems that both these two kinds of jobs are very challenging. Will they change in the future? Now the man invites you to his city in the year 2046, what changes will you expect to find on these two jobs? S: I think 40 years later, working as a farmer will be much easier than now. Farmers wont have to work by hand, they can set a program in the computer and then the computer will finish all the tasks. Its fantastic! And the harvest will be much better because of the science. S: I think in the future we dont have to come to school to study. Teachers will work on the Internet. We will have classes through the Internet. And unlike todays teacher, in the future, a teacher can teach many subjects. And we will have robots do teaching jobs. T: So maybe I should be born 40 years later, in that case, the job for me will be much interesting. Step II Follow-up ActivityEncourage the Ss to predict their future life and make a short-term plan. Let them talk about their dreams and then write passages introducing these dreams.T: Everyone, have you ever dreamt of your own future? Have you asked yourself what you will be? Now lets make a prediction, or we can say, lets make a plan for ourselves: What will I be in the future? You can discuss with your partners to fill in the following chart and then write a passage introducing your dreams.Show the Ss the chart on the screen.TimeWhat will you do?Where will you be?How will youprepare for it?1 year later5 years from now10 years from nowGive the Ss enough time to discuss. This will help them make clear of their own future. And then select some Ss to give a report to the whole class.Step HomeworkT: Imagine you are at your age of 30. Write a passage to describe your daily life or your experience.A sample version:It is the year 2020 and I have just turned 30 years old. More than 10 years ago, I left high school and went to study at a good university. I was a history major and I also studied two foreign languages. After graduation, I was offered a job teaching history in a middle school. At first, I didnt think Id like to teach history. I thought the students would think history was too boring. My first year was very difficult. I didnt know much about teaching and the students did not like my lessons. But I was lucky. One of the older teachers became my friend and taught me a lot.
