Ask the students to skim the passage to complete the task. ( Show the students the exercise on the screen)

Task 1: Divide the class into two groups: boys and girls. Ask them to read the article quickly and the boys circle all the words related to a spaceship’s movement while the girls circle all the words related to Yang Liwei’s movement in the spaceship.

Then ask the boys to judge whether the girls’ answers are right or wrong and the girls do the same.

Purpose of my design: Enable students to understand the given material better using a useful reading skills. Dividing the class into two groups--boys and girls, will create a competition between the boys and girls, which, of cause , makes the studens more actively participate in the class activities.

Step 3 Detailed reading

Task 2: The students have got some basic understanding of the passage after Task 1.This time show the boy students five questions to answer, requiring them to conduct a second reading and get a further understanding of the passage . At the same time ask the girl students to find out the headings of the paragraphs and match them together.

Boys:

1. How did Yang Liwei feel during the flight? How did he feel afterwards?

2. What did Yang Liwei do during the Shenzhou V’s seventh circle of the earth?

3. How many circles did the spaceship complete while Yang Liwei was sleeping?

4. What were helicopters doing as Yang Liwei returned to the earth’s atmosphere?

5. What did Yang Liwei do when he came out of the spaceship?

Girls:

Para.1              Introduction

Para.2              An exciting lift-off

Para.3              During the flight

Para.4              International good wishes

Para.5              Astronaut lands safely

Para.6              Welcome home

Then ask the boys to judge whether the girls’ answers are right or wrong and the girls do the same.

Purpose of my design: The task makes students more familiar with the passage, train their reading speed and reading strategies and develop the students’ capacity of induction.

Step 4 Post reading

(Show some sentences with pictures to students, then ask them to guess the meaning of some words or phrases. )

Task 3: Ask the students to guess the meanings of some words and phrases together with some pictures. Then ask the students to complete the following exercise shown on the screen, using some words and expressions in this passage.

China’s first      spaceship            at 9 a.m.,October 15,2003. The first Chinese     ,Yang Liwei said, “When the spaceship was      , I could really feel the high      . When the spaceship     from the rocket, I suddenly got a feeling of      the sky.” During the 21-hour space      , the spaceship     the earth 14 times. When the space was      the earth for the seventh time, Yang Liwei showed the

of China and the UN,      the wishes of Chinese to      space peacefully. Yang landed     . The spaceship was      red when it came into the earth’s      . The ship was shaking when it let out its      . At the same time     were ready to save Yang. Yang climbed out of the spaceship, smiled and      to the crowds waiting for him.

Purpose of my design: Present some key words and phrases appearing in the passage, and fill in the blanks to increase the students’ ability of language use. Then ask the students to report the answers one by one. This task can test the students’ learning effects.

Step 5 Free discussion

Task 4: Ask the students to Work in pairs. Imagine one is Yang Liwei and the other is a reporter from CCTV. Make up an interview between them.

Example:

Reporter: When did the spaceship lift off?

Yang: It lifted off at 9 a.m. on October 15th, 2003.

R: What did you eat in space?

Y:…...

Purpose of my design: Most students can take their parts in the activities, especially for the Ss who have trouble in English study. In the group activities, they can speak a little English. Without doubt, this will encourage them to speak English. In fact, it is a kind of demand of human being. “Task-based” method is used here to develop the students’ ability of communication and also their ability of co-operation will be well trained.。

Step 6: Homework.

1.What do you think of Yang Liwei? Please write 5 or 6 sentences.

2. Read the article space heroes on page 32

Purpose of my design: I think homework is so important that the students should practise English as much as they can in class or after class. It is necessary for the students to do some exercises after class to master the knowledge they learned, which is an extension of the previous lesson.
