Step Ⅲ．Listening on P42
Pre-listening:
1. Some questions:
①How do you go to school?
②What subjects do you have? What are they about?
③what are your hobbies? / How do you spend your spare time?
④What do you eat? …
2. Imagine where people will live in the future. State your reasons.
Ss: Maybe people live on another planet, because there are too many people on the earth. People will live in space because the earth has been polluted, and there is no room for people…
While- listening:
T: Now you will have a letter from a girl living in the future, she describes her life and explains why she lives where she does. Let’s compare our life with hers.
1．Listen for the first time, answer questions in Part 1.
① What year is Mekanika living in? .
② Where does she live?
③ What happened to the people on the earth?
④ Why is she writing you this letter?
Suggested answers:
①3044 ( or 58AL) ②Mekanika lives on Mars
③They had to leave because the population was growing too large and there was too much pollution.
④She is writing the letter because her science teacher asked her to send a letter to the past.
2．Listen for the second time, do Part 2. Exercise1.
Mekanika Our life
Time One day is divided into eight parts. Two o’clock in the morning on Mars is like six o’clock on earth. One day is 24 hours
Food People eat pills and drink juice We eat meat, fruits and vegetables.
School There are no schools or classrooms. Students meet
their learning guides in different places and solve
problems together. We study in schools and
classrooms and we learn from books and teachers.
Transportation Mekanika flies to class in the school spaceship We go to school by bike or bus.
Post-listening:
Question: What does Mekanika wants to know?

T: Now we’re going to listen to a news broadcast for the year 2035.
1．Listen for the first time, do exercise 1. Tick the subjects mentioned in the news stories.
2．Listen for the second time, do exercise 2. Answer the questions.
StepⅤ.Speaking
Pre-speaking: talk about human clones.
T: Have the scientists discovered how to make doubles?
What would happen if there were human clones?
While-speaking: What are your opinions of making doubles?
Cloning: Having “doubles” or not
Suggested ideas:
1: I think it would be great to have a double because I could use the double to do the things I don’t enjoy, for example, going to school, doing homework and taking exams. Having a double would also be good because I can do two things at a time， so that I can work more efficiently.
2: But we think having a double might be dangerous because we don’t know what the double might do. For example, the double might cheat people out of their money. As a result I will have to be punished because of him.
3: No, I don’t think so. I would like to have a double, because I don’t have time to do all the things I’d like to do, for example, cooking meals and having meetings. Having a double would be wonderful because we could have more time to do things I like best.
4: However, having doubles would make people confused, because no one would know who the double really was or how to treat it. For example, the double wouldn’t have any parents and relatives. It would be bad for society if people had troubles, because it would be very difficult to make it clear who was to blame for the very trouble.
Useful expressions:
It would be wonderful if … Just imagine if …
It’s possible / impossible to predict …
It would be bad for … if … We can only guess.
No one can predict what / when …
Post-speaking: Have a free discussion (as homework)
What would happen if there were two Hitlers ?

In a word, our life is also very wonderful.
Yours,

books. Thus my life will be rich and colorful. I like surfing the Internet so I’d like my e-friend to surf the Internet whenever and wherever I like.

Teaching Procedures:
Step Ⅰ．Revision
Step Ⅱ．Grammar: Noun Clauses used as Subject, Object and Predicative.
Instructions: [后附名词从句 (Noun Clauses）讲义)
1．In the Object clause “that” is optional and can be omitted. But in the Predicative and Subject Clauses “that” is necessary and cannot be omitted.
2．You should pay attention to the word order in the Noun Clause. Normal word order is used in it.
3．In order to keep the sentence balanced. We often use “it” as the formal subject, which replaces the real subject.
4．The subordinate conjunction “whether” can introduce all the Noun Clauses, while the subordinate conjunction “if” can only introduce an object clause used as the object of a verb.
Exercise:
Exercise 1．Find out the function of the Noun Clause in each sentence.
Exercise 2．Look at the questions about the future in the box on the left. Then use the expressions in the box on the right to change your questions into Noun Clause.
Example: How we should use modern technology is an important question.

Exercise 3．Identify the type of clause in each of the sentences.
Instruction: The difference between a Noun Clause and an Attributive Clause. A Noun Clause is used as a Subject, Object, Predicative or Appositive in the main clause. An Attributive Clause serves as an attribute to some nouns or pronouns in the main clause, and it is often placed after this noun or pronoun. The Attributive clause is introduced by the relative pronouns and the relative adverbs.
Step Ⅲ．Homework

《名词性从句》讲义
一、定义：在复合句中相当于一个名词，做主语、宾语、表语、同位语的从句。
二、引导词：
1. 连词: that , if, whether, as if
2. 连接代词: who , what, which, whose, whom以及wh+ever
3. 连接副词: when, where, why, because, how
三、引导词的作用：
1. 连词只有连接的功能，而不在从句中充当句子成分。
2. 连接代词和连接副词不但有连接的功能，同时还要在从句中充当特定的句子
成分，主语、宾语、表语、定语、状语。
主 语 从 句
基本概念
1． 定义：在复合句中作主语的从句叫做主语从句。
2． 构成：关联词+简单句
3． 引导主语从句的关联词有三类：
连词that、whether;
连接代词who, what, which;
连接副词when, where, how, why
⑴ 连词that（无词意）, whether(是否), 在从句中不充当句子成分，只起连接作用; whether能引导主语从句，而if不能。
That you don’t like him has nothing to do with me.
Whether John will do this experiment remains a question.
⑵ 连接代词who, what, which, 在从句中既作连接词又充当主语、宾语、表语、定语等。
Who will be sent abroad to further his studies is not announced.
What surprised me most was that such a little girl could play the violin so well.
Which school will win the prize is not known.
Whose dictionary has not been found is still unknown.
Whichever you take will be yours.
Whoever wants this book may take it.
Whatever was said here must be kept secret.
⑶ 连接副词when, where, how, why在从句中充当时间、地点、方式、原因状语
When they will start hasn’t been decided yet.
Where the heroine went is not mentioned at the end of the story.
How he managed to finish the composition in such a short time is still a mystery.
Why he often comes here is known to us all.
难点
1． 主语从句能用it作形式主语，而把真正的主语放在后面。常以it作形式主语的句型有：
A. It+be+形容词(well-known, obvious, true, natural, surprising, good, wonderful, funny, possible, likely, certain, probable, etc.)+that从句。如：
It is certain that she will do well in her exam.
It is probable that he told her everything.
B. It+be+名词词组(no wonder, an honour, a good thing, a pity, no surprise, common knowledge, a surprise, a fact, etc.)+that从句。如：
It’s a pity that we can’t go. 很遗憾我们不能去。
It’s no surprise that our team should have won the game.
C. It+be+过去分词(said, reported, thought, expected, decided, announced, arranged, etc.)+that从句。如：
It is said that Mr. Green has arrived in Beijing.
It is reported that China has sent another man-made earth satellite into orbit. 据报道中国又成功地发射了一颗人造地球卫星。
It has been suggested that much should be done to prevent the river from being polluted. 有人建议应做更多的工作阻止河流受到污染。
D. It appears / seems that…… （似乎……）
It happens that…… （碰巧……）
It occurred to me that…… （我突然想起……）
It seems that Alice is not coming to the party at all. Alice It happened that I was out that day. 碰巧我那天外出了。
E. It+doesn’t matter (makes no difference, makes sense etc.)+ 连接代词或连接副词引起的主语从句。如：
It doesn’t matter whether she will come or not.
It makes no difference where we shall have the meeting.
F. 当that引导的主语从句出现在疑问句中时，要以it作形式主语，而把主语从句后置。如：
Is it true that the scientist will give us a lecture next week?
Does it matter much that they will not come tomorrow?
G. 当主语从句出现在感叹句中时，要以it作形式主语，而把主语从句后置。如：
How strange it is that the children are so quiet!
2． 注意连接代词whoever, whatever, whichever等引导主语从句的含义
Whoever comes will be welcome. (whoever=the person who)
来的人将受到欢迎。
Whatever he did was right. (whatever=the thing that)
他所做的事情是正确的。
Whichever of you comes in will receive a prize. (whichever=anyone of you who) 你们当中不论哪个进来将会得到奖励。
表 语 从 句
基本概念
1． 定义：复合句中用作表语的从句叫做表语从句。
2． 构成：关联词+简单句
3． 引导表语从句的关联词的种类：
(1) 连词that。如：
The trouble is that I have lost his address.
(2) 连词whether, as, as if。如：
He looked just as he had looked ten years before.
The question is whether they will be able to help us.
注：从属连词if一般不用来引导表语从句，但as if却可引导表语从句，如：
All this was over twenty years ago, but it’s as if it was only yesterday.
这都是20多年前的事了，但宛如昨天一样。
能跟表语从句的谓语动词一般为系动词be, seem, look等。如：
It looked as if it was going to rain. 看起来天要下雨了。
(3) 连接代词who, whom, whose, what, which, whoever, whatever, whichever
连接副词 where, when, how, why。
如：The problem is who we can get to replace her.
The question is how he did it. 问题是他是如何做此事的。
That was what she did this morning on reaching the attic.
难点
1． 连词because可引导表语从句。如：
I think it is because you are doing too much.
2．引导表语从句的that不省略，that仅起连接作用，在从句中不充当任何成分，无任何意义
The impression he makes on me is that he is a reliable person.
他给我的印象是他是一个可靠的人。
3． the reason后面的表语从句只能用that引导，我们学生易犯“the reason is because…”的错误
The reason why the little actress has been such a success is that she is both clever andhard-working.
4． 在表示命令order等，建议suggestion, advice等的名词后的表语从句中，谓语动词要用虚拟语气：should+动词原形，should可省略
His suggestion is that we (should) hold another meeting to discuss the problem.
5． whether可引导表语从句，表“是否”，它在从句中不充当成分，if不能引导表语从句。
宾 语 从 句
基本概念
1． 定义：复合句中用作宾语的从句叫宾语从句。
2． 构成：关联词+简单句
3． 引导宾语从句的关联词有三类：
(1) 连词that。如：
He told us that he felt ill. 他对我们说他感到不舒服。
I know he has returned. 我知道他已经回来了。
注：that在引导宾语从句时也并非任何情况下都可以省略。在以下情况下，that不能省略。
① Everybody could see what happened and that Tom was frightened.(and连接两个宾语从句，that宾语从句放在and的后面时，that不能省略。)
② I know nothing about him except that he is from the south.(that引导的宾语从句作介词宾语时，that不能省略。)
③ That he ever said such a thing I simply don’t believe. (that从句位于句首时，that不可省略。)
④ We decided, in view of his special circumstances, that we would admit him for a probationary period. (主句谓语动词与that从句之间有插入语，that不可省略。) 鉴于他的特殊情况，我们决定应允他一段试用期。
(2) 连词if/whether。如：I doubt whether he will succeed. 我怀疑他是否会成功。
I don’t know if you can help me. 我不知道你能否帮助我。
(3) 连接代词who, whom, whose, what, which, whoever, whatever, whichever
连接副词 where, when, how, why。
Who or what he was, Martin never learned.
他是什么人？他是干什么的？马丁根本不知道。
I wonder what he’s writing to me about.
I’ll tell you why I asked you to come. 我会告诉你我为什么要你来。
You may do what you will. 你可做任何你想做的事。
4． 介词后的从句可用作介词的宾语。如：
He was deeply displeased by what had occurred that day.
他对那天发生的事感到很不快。
I walked over to where she sat. 我走向她坐的地方。
I am curious as to what he will say. 我很想知道他要说什么。
Your success will largely depend upon what you do and how you do it.
你是否成功将主要取决于你做什么和怎样做。
有时介词可以省略。如：I don’t care (for) who marries him. 我不管谁跟他结婚。

Task1: write about an object
T: We have known what the life will be in the year 3044. Imagine that you have come back from a trip to the future. You visited the year 4367 and you saw a wonderful invention called a Mogray.
Now work with your partner and decide what a Mogray is, what it looks like and what it is used for. Before writing, you have to complete the outline on the screen.
What does a Mogray look like? How does it work? What can it be used for?
Instruction: A description of an object should include a physical description (what the object looks like, how big it is etc.) as well as a “practical / functional” description (what it can be used for / how you use it).
One possible version:
What Is A Mogray?
A Mogray is really a wonderful invention in education in the 21st century.
In fact, a Mogray is a computer-based teaching system equipped in our classroom. It consists of three parts：a memory, a large screen almost as large as a blackboard，and 30-60 small screens and voice boxes. With a Mogray system we can make both teaching and learning electronically and efficiently.
This Mogray system works very conveniently and personally. We students do not need to take our textbooks. Instead we use e-books. In class, we enter our own secret code and find the subject. Then we can download information from the memory and begin the new lesson. When we do our exercises or take exams, we also download them. When we finish our work, we should upload them so that the teacher can quickly mark them. If we have homework, we can send it through the Internet or copy it into a hard disc.
In a word, a Mogray helps us to learn more easily and faster. We like it.
