Step 1 Greetings
Greet the whole class as usual.
Step 2 Revision
T：In the last period，we reviewed the attributive clause.So in today’s lesson，first I’d like to check your homework.Please turn to Page 36.Suppo se Elias has had some problems with his messages for his friends，can you help him form sentences with the following words and
phrases？Who’d like to have a try first？
S1：I’m glad to.
T：Very good，Mary.Are you ready？
S1：Yes.The mines where I worked were 9 km from my house.
T：Well done.Who want a try again？
S2：Let me try.The time when we arrived was late at night.
（Form sentences with the list words and phrases in the same way.Encourage students to make up as many sentences as possible.）
Possible sentences：
1.The reason why I got a job was because of my hard work.
2.The government building where we arrived was very grand.
3.The date when I joined the ANC Youth League was the 5th of August.
T：You’ve done a good job.But I’m sorry to tell you that Elias has lost some of his messages.Can you help him？
Ss：Of course.
T：You’re very kind.Please help him by completing the following sentences：
1.The day when Elias first met Nelson Mandela was a very exciting time.
2.South Africa is now a country where the blacks have the same rights as the whites.
3.This is the government building in which Elias blew it up.
4.The person to whom the blacks often turned for help is Nelson Mandela.
T：Now perhaps you’re a little tired.Let’s play the game in groups of four.The first person begins with a sentence and each person in the group adds extra and different information using the attributive clause.Now please look at the example and read it together.
（Show the example on the screen.）
Example：
S1：The school was very large.
S2：The school where I learned was very large.
S3：The school where I learned for six years was very large.
S4：The school where I learned for six years so unhappily was very large.
T：Now please change places.For example，S2 begins the game with another sentence.Do this several times until every one of you has had a go.I’ll give you several minutes to practice.
（Some minutes later，check with the whole class.）
T：Please stop here.It’s time to present your set of sentences to the class.Any volunteer？
Ss：We want a try.
T：Good.Please begin.
Possible sentences：
1.S1：The factory has been closed.
S2：The factory where I worked has been closed.
S3：The factory where I worked for two years has been closed.
S4：The factory where I worked with Tom for two years has been closed.
2.S5：The year was 1809.
S6：The year when Lincoln was born was 1809.
S7：The year when Lincoln was born in Kentucky was 1809.
S8：The year when Lincoln was born in a poor family in Kentucky was 1809.
T：The game is so interesting，isn’t it？At the same time，you did very well.Now，let’s turn to the next part.In the reading passage，Elias told us his experience.So my question is：Did Elias join the ANC Youth League？
Ss：Yes.
T：Why do you think Elias join the ANC Youth League？
S3：Because the ANC Youth League was organized by Nelson Mandela，who had helped Elias when Elias was in great trouble.So Elias never forgot how kind Nelson Mandela was and joined the ANC Youth League as soon as possible.
T：Good.Do you think it is right to join the ANC Youth L eague？Please give your reason.
S4：I think it is right.Because at that time，black people were treated unfairly.Take Elias for example，he had to leave school because his family could not continue to pay the school fees and the bus fare，so he could not read or write.When he got a job in a gold mine，he was worried about whether he would be out of work simply because he did not have the passbook because he was not born there.There were the greatest number of laws stopping their rights and they had almost no rights at all.So when Nelson Mandela organized the ANC Youth League to struggle against racial discrimination in South Africa，it is natural for Elias to join it as soon as he could and it is to realize their dream of making black and white people equal.
T：Very good.So if you were Elias，you would do the same thing as him，right？
S4：Right.
T：Do you agree with him/her？
Ss：Yes.
T：Of course，I would，too.From the reading passage，we know a lot of information of racial discrimination in South Africa.Just now，we talked a lot about why Elias joined the ANC Youth League according to the reading passage.Today we’ll listen to the tape and then please find out the true reason why Elias joined the ANC Youth League.
T：Now please open your books at Page 37.Before you listen to the tape，please read the multiple choices fast to find out the listening points first.While you read，you’d better make notes of the listening points.Now，I’ll play the tape twice.Please listen carefully and pay more att ention to the important points.You may make notes for you to remember the important points.Are you ready？
Ss：Yes.
T：OK.Let’s begin.
Step 4 Listening
T：Just now we listened a passage about Elias.Now we’ve going to listen to a passage about William Tyndale.Who is William Tyndale？
Ss：William Tyndale wrote the Bible in English so all could read it.H e died for his ideas，but his work was later used in the Bible.
T：Yes，we talked about him in the first period.After we listen to the passage，we’ll know more information about him.Please look at the questions before we listen to the text，which will help you understand the listening points.
（Give the students two minutes to read the questions.）
T：Now I’ll play the tape twice.Please listen carefully and pay more attention to the important points.Please make notes if necessary.
T：It’s time for you to do some oral practice.Let’s talk about your hero/heroine.Please use the following questions to help you.
Who is your hero/heroine？
Why do you like her/him so much？
Did he/she do anything for others？
What are his/her best qualities？
By the way maybe the following sentence patterns are helpful for you.
Good idea!
I think/don’t think....
That’s an excellent idea!
I’m afraid....
I agree/don’t agree.
Why do you think so？
I prefer....
What do you think of...？
In my opinion....
What’s your opinion？
（Give students five minutes to have a discussion.）
T：OK.Time is up.Is everybody ready？Who’d like to try to tell us his/her opinion？
S5：I think Marie Curie is my heroine.My favorite scientist is Madam Curie.Why was Marie Curie a significant woman in European Science？Because she was the first woman to be awarded a doctorate，the first woman to become a professo r at the University of Paris，the first woman to win a Nobel Prize and the first person of either sex to win two Nobel Prizes.Marie Curie was the most successful scientist to come out of Poland.She saw science as a beauty that she wanted to withhold.Science to her was an unknown fairy tale phenomenon that she was determined to discover.Marie Curie wanted to use science to help others and the world.She accomplished this by working in World War Ⅰ，and discovering radium，and polonium.Marie Curie’s discovery of polonium was a great scientific finding.This is because it helped the research of uranic rays，and it led to the discovery of radium.The work of Marie Curie was not just important for her discoveries of new elemen ts，but the process she used to isolate them，helped to create a “stockpile”of a few grams of radioactive material，which future scientists could use for further studies.As a result of her work X-Rays are very common today，as is Carbon dating，radiotherapy，and other medical applications for radiation.It is for no small reason that Marie Curie is considered by most to be the greatest woma n scientist of all time.The world indeed owes a great debt to Marie Curie.
S6：I agree with you，but I think Albert Einstein is my hero.Albert Einstein was born on March 14，1879 in Ulm，Wurttemberg，Germany.Einstein contributed more than any other scientist since Sir Isaac Newton to our understanding of physical reality.Einstein worked at the patent office in Bern，Switzerland from 1902 to 1909.During this period he completed an astonishing range of theoretical physics publications，written in his spare time，without the benefit of close contact with scientific literature or colleagues.The most well known of these works is Einstein’s 1905 paper proposing “the special theory of relativity”. Later in 1905 Einstein showed how mass and energy were equivalent expressing it in the famous equation：E=mc2（energy equals mass times the velocity of light squared）.This equation became a cornerstone in the development of

But he became inspired when he tho ught about helping ordinary people exposed to cholera. This was the deadly dise ase of its day. Neither its cause nor its cure was understood. So many thousand s of terrified people died every time there was an outbreak. John Snow wanted t o face the challenge and solve this problem. He knew that cholera would never b e controlled until its cause was found. He became interested in two theories that possibly explained how cholera ki lled people. The first suggested that cholera multiplied in the air. A cloud of dangerous gas floated around until it found its victims. The second suggested that people absorbed this disease into their bodies with their meals. From the stomach the disease quickly attacked the body and soon the affected person die d. John Snow suspected that the second theory was correct but he needed eviden ce. So when another outbreak hit London in 1854, he was ready to begin his enqu iry. As the disease spread quickly through poor neighbourhoods, he began to gat her information. In two particular streets, the cholera outbreak was so severe that more than 500 people died in ten days. He was determined to find out why. First he marked on a map the exact places where all the dead people had liv ed. This gave him a valuable clue about the cause of the disease. Many of the d eaths were near the water pump in Broad Street (especially numbers 16, 37, 38 a nd 40). He also noticed that some houses (such as 20 and 21 Broad Street and 8 and 9 Cambridge Street) had had no deaths. He had not foreseen this, so he made further investigations. He discovered that these people worked in the pub at 7 Cambridge Street. They had been given free beer and so had not drunk the water from the pump. It seemed that the water was to blame. Next, John Snow looked into the source of the water for these two streets. He found that it came from the river polluted by the dirty water from London. H e immediately told the astonished people in Broad Street to remove the handle f rom the pump so that it could not be used. Soon afterwards the disease slowed d own. He had shown that cholera was spread by germs and not in a cloud of gas. In another part of London, he found supporting evidence from two other deat hs that were linked to the Broad Street outbreak. A woman, who had moved away f rom Broad Street, liked the water from the pump so much that she had it deliver ed to her house every day. Both she and her daughter died of cholera after drin king the water. With this extra evidence John Snow was able to announce with ce rtainty that polluted water carried the virus.

高中英语必修五------Unit1§语法归纳 过去分词作表语和定语 1.过去分词作定语 过去分词作定语与所修饰词之间存在两种意义关系：一是及物动词表被动意义（或已完成的被动动作）；二是不及物动词表示完成意义。 an organized trip有组织的旅行(被动) The question discussed was very important. 被讨论的问题非常重要。(即表被动又表完成) boiled water开水(完成) fallen leaves落叶(完成) (1) 单个的过去分词作定语一般放在被修饰的名词之前，有时也放在被修饰的名词之后。 My friend is a returned student. 我的朋友是个归国的留学生。 The excited people rushed into the hall. 激动的人们冲进大厅。 There is no time left. 没有多少时间了。 (2) 过去分词短语作定语要放在被修饰的名词后面，作后置定语，作用相当于一个定语从句。 The student dressed in white is my daughter. ＝The student who is dressed in white is my daughter. 穿白色衣服的学生是我的女儿。 Is there anything planned for tonight? ＝Is there anything that has been planned for tonight? 今晚安排了什么活动没有？ The book, written in 1957, tells the struggle of the miners. ＝The book, which was written in 1957, tells the struggle of the miners. 这本书是1957年写的，讲的是关于矿工斗争的故事。 2.过去分词作表语 过去分词作表语，表示主语所处的状态（用作表语的过去分词大多已形容词化）。这种结构从形式上看与被动语态相同，但后者表示主语所承受的动作。 He is very tired after a long walk. 走了很长的路，他感到很累。(系表结构) This window is broken.这个窗户破了。(系表结构) This window was broken by the naughty boy there. 这个窗户是被那边那个顽皮的男孩打破的。(被动语态) 3.现在分词和过去分词作定语的区别 现在分词作定语表示主动意义，过去分词作定语一般表示被动含义。 现在分词作定语表示动作正在进行，过去分词作定语表示状态或动作已完成。 The child standing over there is my brother. 站在那儿的男孩是我弟弟。 The room facing south is our classroom. 朝南的房间是我们的教室。 He is an advanced teacher. 他是位高级教师。 4.现在分词和过去分词作表语的区别 v. -ing形式表示“令人……的”，多用来修饰物；v.-ed形式表示“某人感到……的”，多用来修饰人。 The book is very interesting. 这本书很有趣。 He is very interested in the book. 他对这本书很感兴趣。 This is a moving story. 这是一个感人的故事。
