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.Suppose 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.）

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.）

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.

Step 3 Listening

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 League？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 attention 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.He 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.

Step 5 Talking

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.

By the way maybe the following sentence patterns are helpful for you.

（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 professor 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 elements，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 woman 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 nuclear energy.Einstein received the Nobel Prize in 1921 but not for relativity，rather for his 1905 work on the photoelectric effect.He worked on at Princeton until the end of his life on an attempt to unify the laws of physics.

Step 6 Summary

T：I agree with you，too.Well done.Thank you for your wonderful performance.Now，let’s see what we’ve done in this period.First，we’ve checked your homework about the attributive clause.Second，we practise listening.Third，we’ve talked about your hero/heroine.Of course，we’ve learned some useful expressions.After class，practise them more and preview the next part—reading.That’s all for today.See you.
