I.Brief Statements Based on the Unit
The topic of this unit is about the human being’s 1ife
in the future．This unit is made up of warming
up，listening，speaking，pre-reading，reading，post-reading，language
study and integrating skills．These tasks will be
finished in five periods．
In the first period，we’ll do warming up，listening
and speaking to improve the student’s listening and
speaking abilities．At the same time．arouse the
students’interest in the topic of this unit．
In the second period，we’ll finish the task 0f
pre-reading,reading and post-reading．In post—reading，let
the students give free rein to their imagination by
discussing some questions．We’11 read a passage about
1ife in the future．It will tell us what the human
being’s life will be like in the future．In the meanwhile
we’ll learn some useful words and expressions．
The third period consists of two parts：Word study
and Grammar-Noun Clauses．
Through word study we’ll revise some words and
phrases，which are related to the topic of this unit．As
to the grammar：Noun clauses,we can master them by doing
more practical practice given in the textbook and
workbook．
The main purpose of the fourth period is to train the
students’reading and writing abilities by reading and
writing a short pas-sage about 1ife in the future．
In the last period,we’ll deal with the grammer in this
unit-Noun C1auses．
In a word,we can train the
students’listening,speaking,reading and writing
abilities by doing the exercises the textbook and the
workbook provide．
Ⅱ.Teaching Goals
1．Talk about life in the future．
2．Practise making predictions．
3．Learn about Noun Clauses(2)．
4．Write a definition paragraph．
Ⅲ．Teaching Time：Five periods：
Ⅳ．Background Information
1.World in the Future
Scientists think that wonderful things may come true
in the future．Future means a time that not yet come．It
can be a short time from now or a long time from
now．Some of the underwater wonders are almost ready to
come true now．Others won’t come true,we think，until a
long time from now．Some,of course．may never come
true-but
who knows for sure?They may．What are some of the wonders
that may come true in the future?
Let’s go back to dry land and take a future journey
the other way--up instead of down．
Huge rocket liners take you into space to visit the
Moon Camp．You walk around on the moon in s special moon
suit．You visit an observatory where a giant telescope
looks far into space--farther than anyone has ever been
able to see from Earth．You go deep down into one of the
moon mines．
After you have visited the moon,you visit the Mars
Colony and the Venus Explo-ration Outpost．
Let’s go back to Earth．
In the far，far future，girls—and boys,too--may be
playing with dolls that look like the people of the
planets visited by our space-man．
To control or run all kinds of toys,boys and girls
may learn to use special ccmputers--machines that answer
questions and do arithmetic faster than you can think．
Bicycles and perhaps skates may be run by jet
power,and a new thing to ride may be a small flying
saucer．Imagine a race between them!
There may be telepathy helmets that send thought
waves from your brain to that
of your friend miles away．You just think a thought and
your friend knows it!You can have secrets with each
other that nobody else can turn it on!
There will be other surprises in the future．How
would you like to have a robot
playmate?
Having robot playmates may not be so much fun as it
seems．But maybe a boy with a wrench and a screwdriver
can fix the robot so that it won’t be too perfect!
What about the food of the future? Scientists think
that much of it will be artificialmade in factories from
such surprising things as coal．1imestone。air and water．
You don’t think that ice-cream or cake or candy or
even bread and potatoes made out of these things will
taste very good．You may be wrong．These artificial things
will be blended so skillfully be food chemists that the
food of the future probably wi11 be delicious．It
probably will also be healthful be-cause life will be
put into it．
Scientists of the future will almost certainly find
other ways to make life last longer．They probably will
find cures for most diseases．Hospitals will probably
have“body banks”that can give you almost any new part
you need to keep on living．People of the future may live
to be a lot older than 100 years．
Are you wondering whether there’11 be television in
the future? There’ll almost certainly be wonderful
programs. Television screens probably wi11 be large and
flat，hanging on the wall or going across the four walls
of a room．People on the screen will look real as if
they were right in the room with you．What about highways
of the future? Well, a very small child probably will be
able to drive a car．Nobody will need to steer．Electric
signals will hold each car on the right road to get
wherever the“Driver”wants to go．And it probably will be
impossible for cars to smash together。Controllers that
won’t even have to be touched will make all speeding
cars miss each other or will put on the brakes．Driving
in a car will be as safe as being at home．
But maybe the most wonderful surprise in the future
will be weather control，Cities may have giant plastic
domes over them to keep out snow，rain，or storms．
When you plan a picnic in a park。you won't have to
worry about rain．It will rain only when the“
weatherman”thinks it is needed to freshen the air inside
the city．All other days will be fair and warm．
The future should be a wonderful time in which to
live．But the time you are living in now was also“ a
wonderful future”to the people who lived 100 years ago．
2。Three Things That Will Change Your Life
Today our lives are changing faster than at any time
in history．Here we report on three important changes
that will have a big impact on our everyday lives in the
future．
The cashless society Cash and bank-notes wi1l
disappear almost completely．They will be replaced by
smart cards--plastic cards with microchip
processors“loaded”
with some money．When we pay for goods．the retailer w1l
insert our smart card into a payment terminal and money
w．1l be transferred from our card to the retailer's
card．When all the money is used up，we will be able
to“re-load”it by inserting it into a telephone，dialing
our bank account and transferring money to the card from
the account．1f we want to transfer money from our card
to a bank ac-count．we will use the same method．Smart
cards will be able to hold several different currencies
at the same time．so if we go aboard．we will use our
smart cards in the same way．
Interactive telephones Human telephone operators
will be sharply replaced by talking computers．These
computers will recognize speech．ask us what information
we need，access the information from a database，and
convert it to speech．If we want to book a flight or
pay a bill by phone，we will interact with a talking
computer to do SO．Of course，this won't happen until all
the technology is
in place，but when it is we will soon get used to
interacting with computers in this way．Human telephone
operators will be used only for more complex operations
such as dealing with complaints or solving concrete
problems．
Intelligent cars Traffic congestion in cities will be
reduced because drivers will use electronic route maps
to find the quickest route to their destination and
avoid traffic jams．Congestion will also decrease when
electronic systems start changing motorists for driving
in cities．As soon as motorists have to pay to drive in
cities，they will stop Using their cars and use public
transport instead．
Speed control systems will be built into cars．These
systems will automatically regulate the speed of the car
to take account of traffic and weather conditions and
prevent accidents．It will be many years before these
changes bring results but when they do，there will be a
titanic improvement in road safety．

and spacious class-room with modern equipment such as
radios and computers．And we all live a happy life
today．We can get whatever we want．Do you know how did
people live in the past?
(One student stands up．)
S：When I was a child，my great-grandfather often told me
the stories of him in the past. He often got hungry and
didn’t have enough money to go to school and had no
chance…I think people live a miserable life in the past.
T：Yeah．People lived a hard in the past．With the
development of science and technology, people's life
has changed a lot．Now we all live happily. What do you
imagine life will be like in the future? Today we are
going to study Unit 6 Life in the future. (Bb: Unit 6

like in the future.
Step Ⅱ Warming up
T：Now let's first have a discussion about the future of
one of the areas in our books．Discuss them in groups of
four．After a while，I'1l ask one of you to re-
port the results．

Teaching Procedures：
Step I Greetings and Lead—in
T：Good morning／afternoon，everyone.
Ss：Good morning／afternoon，teacher.
T：Sit down，please．Now we're having a class in a bight
and spacious class-room with modern equipment such as
radios and computers．And we all live a happy life
today．We can get whatever we want．Do you know how did
people live in the past?
(One student stands up．)
S：When I was a child，my great-grandfather often told me
the stories of him in the past. He often got hungry and
didn’t have enough money to go to school and had no
chance…I think people live a miserable life in the past.
T：Yeah．People lived a hard in the past．With the

imagine life will be like in the future? Today we are
going to study Unit 6 Life in the future. (Bb: Unit 6
Life in the future)It will tell us what life will be
like in the future.
Step Ⅱ Warming up
T：Now let's first have a discussion about the future of
one of the areas in our books．Discuss them in groups of
four．After a while，I'1l ask one of you to re-
port the results．
T：Now please discuss some questions．(Show the picture
and questions on the screen．)






How will people travel in the future?
Where will they go? Why?
(Give the students another two minutes to discuss．)
T：Who’d like to tell me how people will travel in the
future and where they will
go and why?
(One Student puts up his hand．)
T：Oh，Li Jun，you have a try．
S：I think people will travel by using public
transport．Electric cars will be
traveling through the streets day and night．Anybody will
be able to stop one and take it．They can go wherever
they want．
S：I think people will travel by car，which doesn't burn
gas，but solar energy．In-
stead of wheels，the car needs a Cushion of air．Thus。it
can float in the air．You
can go wherever you want as long as you press a button
on the computer in the
car．What's more，it won't cause any pollution．
(And then ask some Students to re-port．)
How wi1l people communicate in the future?
S: People will communicate with each other with
computers, which are set in the watches.
Where will people work in the future?
What kind of jobs will they have?
S：People wil1 work at home．The only thing that people do
is to control the robots by pressing the buttons on t11e
computer and let them work for us．
How will people do business in the future?
What kind of money will they use?
S：By the year 2l00，shops will no longer exist．Computers
will have replaced them，and people will order goods from
home．Instead of paper money，they will use credit cards．
What languages will people speak in the future?
Will people still speak Chinese and Eng1ish?
S：Instead of any language，people Will use code to talk
with each other．If they use a language to communicate，I
think t11ey Will speak Chinese．Because our country will
be the strongest one．
What will schools be like in the future?
What subjects will people study?
S：Schools will be set up on the Internet．Students can
stay at home and use computers to study．We can also
down-load some information．We'll study social
sciences，natural sciences and so on．Schooling wi11 be
much more interesting and effective．
(After discussing all the questions，the teacher says the
following．)
T：In spite of all these changes，man in the future will
still have a lot in common with us．They wi1l have
thoughts and emotions similar to ours．Anyhow，they will
be human beings．
Step Ⅲ Listening
T：Now open your books at Page 42．Let's do some
Listening．First Part 1．You're going to listen to a
letter about Mekanika's life．Listen carefully and pay
attention to the year when she is living，the place where
she 1ives,the things that happened to the people on the
earth and the reason why she is writing you this
letter．Write down what you hear．At last I'll check the
answers with you．Is that clear?
Ss：Yes．
T：OK．Let's begin．
(Teacher plays the tape for the first time．Then plays
for the second time，during which time teacher may pause
for the students to write down the in-formation
．Finally teacher checks the answers in Part l with the
whole class．)
T：Next listen to Part 2 and do the two exercises in
them．
(Teacher lets the students go through the Exx in Part 2
and then plays the tape for the students．At last check
the answers．)
Step Ⅳ Speaking
T：NOW look at the picture in Speaking Part．There are two
girls in the picture．One girl is working on the
computer．The other is making a phone call．Can you find
anything different between them?
Ss：No．They are the same．Maybe they are twins．
T：No，they aren't twins．One of them is cloned．With the
development of technology，scientists will be able to
clone persons as well as animals．Suppose the year is
2089 and scientists have discovered how to
make“doubles”，ex-act copies of a person that can do
everything the original can do．Now work in groups of
four to discuss the question whether the new techno1ogy
should be used．First give your opinion and tell the
reason．Write it in your textbooks．After that make up a
short dialogue,
using the information in your books and the useful
expressions on the blackboard.
(Bb：It would be wonderful if…
It would be bad for…if…
It’s possible/impossible to predict…
No one can predict what／when…
Just imagine if…
We can only guess…)
(Teacher gives the students four minutes to prepare in
groups of four and then asks some groups to read their
dialogues before the class．)
Sample dialogue：
SA：With the development of science and techno1ogy，the
double would be made in the future．I think it would be a
good idea to have a double. Because we could use the
double to do the things we don't enjoy，for example, we
could let the double finish our homework．
SC：I agree with you．I would 1ike to have a double,
too，because I don't have time to do all the things I'd
like to do．For example，if I didn't have time to watch an
exciting football game, I would let the double watch it.
SB：I don't agree with you．I think having a double might
be dangerous because you don't know what the double
might do．For example，the double might steal what they
what they want or kill the person they hate.
SD：Yes，they might do something wrong. What's more，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 no one
would see to them.
SC：But having a double would be wonderful，because you
could let the double do whatever you want them to do．
SA：Having a double would also be good because the double
could attend an important meeting instead of you if you
were ill．
SD：But I think it would be bad for society if people had
doubles because they would make trouble for our society.
Step V Summary and Homework
T：Today we've done some listening and speaking and known
how to make pre- dictions．Besides，we've also learnt
some useful expressions on the black- board．After
class．write down the dialogue you made in your exercise
books and preview the reading passage on Page 43．
Step Ⅵ The Design of the Writing on the Blackboard

Teaching Procedures：
Step I Greetings and Revision
Greet the whole class as usual.
T：Yesterday we learnt a passage about life in the
future．Who can tell me what the future will be 1ike?
S：Let me try．In the future, we will travel by
car，taxi，bus or train that won't pollute the air any
more．We’ll buy things on the Internet instead of in the
shop．
And we’ll be able to enjoy a longer and healthier life…
Step Ⅱ Word Study
T：Very good．In the text．we also learnt some important
words and expressions．Now let’s have a dictation．Take
out a piece of paper and write them down on it．
(Teacher dictates the words and expressions learnt in
the last two periods.
Including forcast，trend．Urban consumer，tiny，customer,
cash，regularly．effort，and physician．After that，let the
students hand them in．)
T：OK．Now look at Language Study on Page 45．First look at
Ex．I in Word study．Read the sentences and find a word
from what we dicatated just now to complete each. You
are given five minutes to do it．Read first and then
complete the sentences according to the meaning of
them．Is that clear?
Ss：Yes．
T：OK．First do it by yourselves．Then discuss them in
pairs．After a while，I’ll ask some of you to say you’re
answers and give the Chinese meaning of each sentence．
(After a while，teacher checks their answers and corrects
the mistake if any．Teacher can give some explanations．)
Suggested answers：
1．forecast 你听天气预报了吗? 明天天气会怎么样?
2．trend 在中国许多地方使用信用卡已成为一种趋势。
3．urban 许多人想在都市工作而在农村生活。
4．consumers 根据中国法律，被厂家欺骗的顾客可以得到两倍赔偿。
5．customers 因特网有助于厂家和顾客保持联系。
6．tiny 计算机越来越小，有一天我们会在脖子或手腕上带上计算机。
7．cash 旅游时带许多现金是不好的，你最好用银行卡。
8．regularly 这两位女孩以前定期见面,但自从其中一个搬到另一个省后．她们就不能见面了。
9. physician 内科医师就是给病人看病开药方的医生。
lO.efforts 学习外语需要付出很大努力。
T：Well done．Now look at Ex2．Choose the correct phrase to
fill in each blank．First look at the phrases in the
box．Let’s revise the meanings of them together．(Students
say the Chinese meanings of the phrases together．) Now
you're given three minutes to finish it．
(After a while，teacher checks their answers.)
Suggested answers：
In general, in store, keep in touch with, lead to,
paying no attention to
T：Now read this passage again and try to continue the
story．Write an ending to the story．After a while，I'll
ask some of you to read out your story．
(After a while，ask some students to read out their own
ending to the story．)
Step Ⅲ Grammar
T：Thank you for your stories．Now please look at the
sentences on the blackboard．
(While the students are preparing their stories，the
teacher writes the following sentences on the
black-board and underlines the clauses with coloured
chalk．)
(Bb：1．Who bought the book is un-known?
2．They know that the habit may kill them．
3．All I can say is that he has always been good to me．)
T：Who can tell me the function of the clause in each
sentence? Any volunteers? OK．Wang Li，please．
S：In the first sentence，“who-clause” is used as the
Subject．“That—clause” in the second sentence is an
object clause while in the last sentence “that-clause”
is a predicative clause．
T：Is what she said right?
Ss：Yes．
T：Very good．In the Object Clause“that”is optional and
can be omitted．But in the Predicative and Subject
Clauses，“that”is necessary and can not be omitted．You
must remember that．Are you clear?
Ss：Yes．
T：OK．Look at the sentences on the screen and tell which
part the Noun Clause act as．
(Show the following on the screen．)
1．What life will be like in the future is difficult ot
predict．
2．They are careful about what they eat and exercise
regularly．
3．The schools of the future will proba-bly be quite
different from what they are today．
4．We can not be sure whether our dreams will come
true，but we can at least be hopeful that…
5．If we learn to accept change and appreciate what is
new and different, we will be well-prepared for whatever
the future may have in store．
(Teacher asks the students to do it one by one．)
S1：“What life will be like in the future” is used as the
subject．
S2：“What they eat and exercise regularly” is the object
of preposition“about”．
S3：“What they are today” is the object of preposition
“from”．
S4：“Whether our dreams will come true” is used as the
predicative．
S5：“What is new and different” is used as the object of
verb “appreciate” and
“whatever the future may have in store” serves as the
object of preposition “for”
Step Ⅳ Practice
T：OK．Look at Part 2 on Page 46．Use the expressions in
the right box to change your questions about the future
in the left box into Noun Clauses．You may do like this．
e.g．How we should use modern technology is a big
issue．But you should pay attention to the word order in
the Notm Clause．Normal word order is used in it. Do you
understand?
Ss：Yes．
(Give the students three minutes to practise and then
ask some of the students to read out their sentences．
One student, one sentence．)
Suggested answers：
1.I can’t imagine what the advantages of e-schools are．
2．Scientists have(not)found answers to the question why
there is no life on the moon.
3．The problem is how we should use modern technology．
4．We cannot be sure when we’ll be able to travel in
space．
5．They are worried about whether robots will be smarter
than people．
6．We cannot be sure whether the future will be better．
T：Now let’s do the exercise in Part 3．The main purpose
of this exercise is to
help you understand the differences between a Noun
Clause and an Attributive C1ause．Who’d like to tell me
the differences between them?
S：I’d Iike to try．A Noun Clause is used as a
subject，object，predicative or op-
positive in the main clause．An Attributive Clause serves
as an attribute to
some noun or pronoun 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．
T：Very good．Sit down please．Now please read the
sentences in Part 3 first．Then identify the type of
clause in the sentences．If it is a Noun
C1ause，write“NC”；if it is an Attributive
C1ause，write“AC”．Are you clear?
Ss：Yes．
T：Now you are given three minutes to prepare it．
(Three minutes 1ater，ask five students to say their
answers one by one．)
Suggested answers!
1．NC 2．NC 3．AC 4．AC 5．NC
T：Well done．Now look at Part 4．Re-write the sentences so
that they be-come the type of noun clauses in
brackets．If you have any problem，you can look at the
example．
(Teacher gives them four minutes to finish it．After
that, ask the students to read out their sentences．)
Suggested answers：
1．We must make sure what is needed to open an online
store．
2．How we can develop transportation without polluting
the environment is still a problem．
3．We don’t know when we’ll have the medicine that can
cure any disease．
4．All I want to know is whose book you are reading．
5．Why it is important for us to become lifelong learners
is being discussed．
That is why it is important for us to be-come lifelong
learners．He has told me why it is important for us to
become lifelong learners．
Step V Summary and Homework
T：OK．Today we’ve reviewed the words and phrases we
learned in the last two periods．We’ve also learned the
Noun Clauses as the Subject，Object and Predicative．You

Attributive Clause．After class，review the content we
learnt，especially the Attributive Clause and the Noun
Clause as the Subject，Objectand Predicative．Time is
up．That’s all for today．
