1、.Teaching Goals:1.Talk about modern agriculture and the effects it has on peoples life.2.Practise giving advice and making decisions.3.Use “It” for emphasis.4.Read statistical graphs.5.Write a plan for a vegetable garden.Teaching Time:Five periods.Background Information:1.An American Small FarmLast
2、year,at harvest time,we visited the Steenhoek farm,which is 2 200mu,or 340 acres.Typical family farms are run entirely by familymembers,with every member playing a vital part in the operation.Both ofthese families are descendants of Dutch immigrants who settled here overa century ago.The Steenhoek f
3、arm supports 3 generations.The family of Mr.andMrs.Steenhoek includes three children and 2 grandchildren.As we willsee,this family is an excellent example of hardworking,experiencedfarmers who stay on the land not purely because of profit,but because theyare living a life-style that satisfies them.S
4、ixty percent of theSteenhoeks acres are devoted to pasture land,on which they raise 120 beefcattle.The rest of the land is used for growing corn.Fifteen years ago,the American farm economy was booming.Farmers couldspecialize,raising one crop,or one type of animal.Today,with an uncertainfarm economy,
5、such an idea is considered foolhardy,and diversifying is oneway that farmers can lesson their risk of loss.For example,if weatheraffects the size of a crop,the sale of the livestock will make up thedifference.If the animals are plagued by disease,at least there is grainto take to market.Kendall Stee
6、nhoek,Simons eldest son,divides his time between runningthis machine shop and farming zoo acres of corn.He attended a communitycollege in Iowa for two years to study diesel mechanics.Then he openedthis repair shop for farm machinery.Kendall also plants and harvests over30 000 bushels of corn each ye
7、ar,but it is the income from the repair shopthat has enabled him to stay within the farming community.The heavyequipment used on the farms today is in constant need of maintenance,andrequires precision tooling for repairs.By far,the most impressive andcertainly the most costly piece of farm equipmen
8、t used on a small farmis a harvesting machine called a combine,which can cost up to $100 000.This type of machinery is what makes the American farm so efficient.Witha combine,one man and his family can harvest an entire crop of a 500 acrefarm in two weeks.The value of the combine is that it performs
9、 severalfunctions.As it moves through a field of corn,this sophisticated machinecuts the stalk,plucks the ear,discards the stalk,shucks the corn kernelsoff the ear and deposites the kernels in a storage bin in the back.Then,aspinning device in the rear of the combine shreds the husks and shaftsand s
10、catters them across the field,to serve as mulch,cutting down on thepossibility of soil erosion from winter rains.The machine is even moreamazing when you think that it has been in use on American farms for onlyone generation.2.GenesEvery living cell contains genes.They are too small to be seen in am
11、icroscope,but they are vitally important.Each set of genes in the bodycontains all the instructions needed to make a human being.Some genesdetermine hair color.Some determine the shape of a nose.Some genes helpdetermine your height and even your weight.Genes are made of a chemical called DNA-the let
12、ters stand fordeoxyribonucleicacid(脱氧核糖核酸).In the early 1950s,twoscientists,Francis Crick and James Watson,figured out how the parts ofDNA fit together.Once scientists understood this structure,it becamepossible to take pieces of DNA apart and put them together in new ways.Newkinds of genes could be
13、 made in this manner.Scientists have studied the genes of many plants and animals.They haveworked out which genes affect the color of a tomato and the stickness ofits skin.Working out which genes determine which features is calledgenetic mapping,scientists have begun the Human Genome Project,anambit
14、ious effort to map all the genes in the human body.Some genes may be effective.For example,something might be wrong with thegene that makes blood clot( 凝聚).An individual born with this defectivegene could suffer serious hemorrhages(出血)or even bleed to death becausehis or her blood fails to clot.If s
15、cientists ever learn how to map allthe genes in our bodies,they could determine whether or not an unborn childhas any defective genes.They might even discover how to treat these genesbefore the child is born.The First PeriodTeaching Aims:1.Improve the students speaking ability by practising giving a

22、inutes,Ill ask somestudents to talk about them.(Students begin to discuss the questions.Andteacher goes and joins them.A few minutes later,teacher says thefollowing.)T:Are you ready?Who can give us a talk about the first topic?SA,how arepeoples eating habbits changing over the years?SA:From the firs
23、t graph,we can see that the eating habits of the peoplein our country have changed greatly.Before 1949,they had not enough toeat and often went hungry.Once natural disasters happened,a great numberof people would die of hunger.Before the reforming and opening to theworld,grain was still a big proble
24、m.People mainly lived on corn and fewkinds of vegetables.Since the 1980s,especially the 1990s,peoples eatinghabits have greatly improved.People can eat whatever they want.More andmore people eat less grain,more meat and eggs and so on.More and morepeople turn their eyes to meat,eggs,milk and all kin
25、ds of greenvegetables.T:Why do you think this happens,SB?SB:It is all because of the Partys good policies.T:Very good.It is true and everyone can see that.How has agriculturalproduce changed duringthe first half of the 1990s?And what doyou thinkcaused these changes?SC:From the first half of the 1990
26、s,scientists started to develop newtechniques to increase agricultural production without causing damage tothe environment.Especially the new technique, “GM”,has madeagricultural production increase continuously.Scientists develop newkinds of seeds,better cows,pigs,sheep as well as fish.It is the ne
27、wtechniques that make all this possible.T:Do you agree with him,SD?SD:Yes,I do.And I want to give an answer to the three question.T:Good,please say that.SD:With the changes in peoples eating habits,agriculture as well asnature will have to change,too.People are eating more meat and milk.Thatis to sa
28、y,they need more fish,pigs,sheep and cattle as well as poultry.Tofeed these animals,we need more grain,especially more grass.To protectour environment,the ways to raise animals have changed.With thedevelopment of modern science and techniques,some of the fields are notneeded to produce more food.We
29、can grow grass,flowers etc.on them.Lessfarmers are needed and they can do other kinds of work.Step .ListeningT:So much for the discussion.Next well do listening.The passage youlllisten to is aboutfarming.It tells us about farming ofall countries inearly times and protection of nature and environment
30、.Listen to the tapecarefully and do the exercises concerned.Now,read therequirements,please.(Students read the requirements.)Now do you knowwhat youll have to do after listening to the passage?(Ss:Yes.)Duringlistening,Ill play the tape three times.After listening for the firsttime,you can leave over

35、 B;Sc-villager C;Sd-villager DSe-the village leaderSe:As we all know,we are given a large piece of land.Ive got all of ushere to have a discussion and decide how to use the land.Please give usyour advice.Sa:I advise we should grow corn on this piece of land.Its large and flatand machines can go up a
36、nd down it,so we can spend less time and get morecorn.A lot of money can be made after selling the corn.Sb:I think we ought to build a farm there and raise pigs or cows with thegrain we harvest.So we can make more money.Sc:My advice is that we should turn it into a garden,and grow flowersthere.Then
37、we can sell the flowers.There is nobody here selling flowers.SoI think our business will surely be good.Besides,sometimes selling grainor meat is hard,for the price could be too low.Sd:I think wed better design it like this:We build a building of a fewfloors.In each floor,we can raise one kind of an
38、imals.With their wastes,wecan raise fish or grow vegetables on the top or in the space which facesthe sun.We can also grow mushrooms in the dark places.We can use onequarter of it to do this and build a garden on one quarter so that peoplecan enjoy themselves here.Half of the rest grow flowers to se
39、ll and forthe other half we can grow grass on it so that our environment will bebetter.Sa:Thats a good idea.But it will need a lot of money to do this.I hopewe can make a decision today.Se:We must make a decision.My opinion is that we do as SD said.Any otheropinions?Sb and Sc:I agree with you.Step .

150、in thegiant building could be used for cultivating mushrooms which grow wellin the dark.Higher up,green houses full of tomatoes and flowers,grown in nutrientsolution collected from elsewhere in the building,would profit from thelight.The system is theoretically a complete farming cycle,with oneactiv
