教材分析和教材重组
教材分析
本单元的主要内容是边缘科学、地球生命的起源，万有引力、黑洞和太空旅行等天文学知识。通过本单元的学习，培养学生对科学的兴趣，激发学生探究科学的热情。
1. Warming Up部分共有三组问题，第一组问题引导学生讨论边缘科学(Frontier Science)，即以两种或多种学科为基础而发展起来的科学。例如，生物化学是以生物学和化学为基础的边缘科学。第二组问题探讨科学研究的方法。第三组问题让学生思考要成为真正的科学家所必须掌握的技能。
2. Pre-reading部分主要让学生弄清楚什么是科学思想，什么是宗教信仰或文化传统。学生总喜欢听故事或讲故事，在探讨生命的起源的科学道理之前，让学生交流一下有关宇宙的起源的种种传说，既有趣味性，又能调动学生的相关知识，激活学生的思维。
3. Reading部分讲述了地球上生命的起源。水的形成使得地球有别与其他星球，它使得地球上生命的诞生成为可能。科学家认为，地球上的生命首先诞生于水中，上百万年后，陆地上才长出绿色植物，随后出现了陆栖动物和水陆两栖动物。最初的动物靠孵化繁衍后代，后来出现了哺乳动物，人类也随之诞生了。文章最后讲述的现象发人深省：The earth may become too hot for the lives on it.它关系到地球上生命的未来。
4. Comprehending部分通过四个选择填空题检测学生对本文核心问题的理解：地球上生命的起源和延续需要哪些条件?随后通过排序的方式帮助学生弄清本文的行文线索，也就是地球上生命的起源和发展历程。最后提出两个问题，考查学生的深层理解和推断能力。
5. Learning about Language部分首先通过英文解释帮助理解课文中的生词，然后，通过短文填空、词语分类等形式将这些词语用于一个相关的情境中。语法部分也是采用先发现后应用的学习方法。先通过到课文中找句子，让学生认识主语从句，然后，设置一个用手机发短信息的情境，让学生进行简单句与主语从句之间的转换练习。最后设置情境来复习第三单元出现的表语从句。
6. Using Language部分综合训练听说读写的能力。听力部分的内容介绍三位科学巨匠，不仅通过听力填表的形式训练学生捕捉细节的能力，还通过四选一的形式帮助学生找主题思想。在解释对与错的过程中，教师可以适当地介绍一下概括主题的方法。阅读部分是一个科幻小故事，通过“我”和“我的朋友”乘宇宙飞船登月球的经历，介绍了重量、失重和地球引力等科学道理。说和写部分以Visiting the moon为话题，要求学生讨论登月球需要携带的物品和在月球上可能遇到的困难，并要求学生找出克服这些困难的方法。教师可以根据课本上的提示，向学生介绍“先分述后总结”的写作方法。提出问题的解决方案时，要求学生选用适当的“指示”用语。

Aims
To develop the students’ reading ability
To learn something about astronomy
Procedures
I. Warming up by learning vocabulary
Good morning, class! Today, w are going to take Unit 4 Astronomy: the science of the stars. Before we read the text, let’s turn to page 99 and get familiarized with the vocabulary first. Pay attention to the making of the word. Study the prefixes, roots and suffixes in the words.

Astronaut Yang Liwei
II. Pre-reading
1. Looking and saying
Have you ever wondered how the universe began? Well I'm sure you may have many answers to this question, but I have one that perhaps, you may not have heard of yet. I will be giving you my theory on this subject. Now look at the screen and listen to me telling you something exciting.
科学家透露：宇宙可能有两个
我们的宇宙和一个"隐藏的"宇宙共同"镶嵌"在"五维空间"中。在我们的宇宙早期，这两个宇宙发生了一次相撞事故，相撞产生的能量生成了我们宇宙中的物质和能量。 　　 　　
2. Talking and sharing
Do you know how the universe began?
In the 1920s in California, astronomer Edwin Hubble observed distant galaxies using an extremely powerful telescope. He made two mind-boggling(unbelievable) discoveries.
First, Hubble figured out that the Milky Way isn’t the only galaxy. He realized that faint, cloud-like objects in the night sky are actually other galaxies far, far away. The Milky Way is just one of billions of galaxies.
Second, Hubble discovered that the galaxies are constantly moving away from each other. In other words, the universe is expanding. The biggest thing that we know about is getting bigger all the time.
A few years later, Belgian astronomer Georges Lemaître used Hubble‘s amazing discoveries to suggest an answer to a big astronomy question: “How did the universe begin?”
III. Reading
1. Listening and reading aloud
Now please listen to the recording and then read the text aloud. Pay attention to how the native speaker is reading along and where the pauses are within each sentence. I will play the tape twice and you shall read aloud twice, too.

IV. Closing down
Closing down by doing exercises
To end the lesson you are to do the comprehending exercises 2 and 3 on pages 26 and 27.
Closing down by having a discussion—How Did the Universe Begin?
There are only three possible answers to this question.
1．It was created by something larger than itself since the first law of thermodynamics(热力学) says that energy cannot be created, only changed.
The universe had to be created by something outside itself, because of the same law. We also know that man could not have created it.
2．It was begun by chance (or accident); or
3．The answer is not sure.
Shown this way, the question is:

主语从句
一、由what（whatever，whoever）等代词引导的主语从句。
What they are after is money. 他们追求的是金钱。
Whatever was said here must be kept secret. 这里说的话都应当保密。
二、由连词that引导的主语从句。其中that一般不可省略，但若用it作形式主语， that从句后置时，则可省略。为避免头重脚轻，我们倾向用it开头，后接be，seem等。如果句子是疑问形式，就只能用带it的结构。
That money doesn't grow on trees should be obvious.
金钱不能从树上长出来是显而易见的。
It is obvious（that）money doesn't grow on trees .显而易见，金钱是不能从树上长出来的。
Has it been announced when the planes are to take off？飞机什么时候起飞宣布了没有？
注意：
1）选用what还是用that引导主语从句要根据关联词在从句中是否担任成分而定。且what（以及whatever，whoever等）引导的主语从句一般不用it作形式主语。
What he said is true.他说的是真的。（what在其引导的主语从句中作宾语。）
That China is a great socialist country is well known.（=It’s well known that…）众所周知，中国是一个伟大的社会主义国家。（that在其引导的主语从句中不作任何成分，也无词义，只起连接作用。）
2）it引导的强调句与it作形式主语的复合句不可混淆。it引导的强调句是用来对句中某一成分加以强调，其结构为：“It is（或was）+强调部分+that（或who）…”强调句去掉It is（或was）…that（或who）…框架后，剩余部分为一个完整的句子。
It was I that(who) met Mary in the street yesterday.是我昨天在街上遇见了玛丽。(强调主语)
3）常见的用it作形式主语的复合句结构：
*It is+形容词（necessary，strange，important，wonderful，possible，likely，等）+that从句，从句中常用虚拟语气。
It’s necessary that he write something in English.他用英语写点东西是必要的。
It’s strange that she did not go to school yesterday.奇怪的是她昨天没去上学。
*It is+名词（a fact，a pity ，no wonder，good news，等）+that从句
It's a pity that she should have said so.真遗憾她竟然会这么说。
*It is+过去分词（said，reported，decided，unknown等）+that从句
Its said that our English teacher will go abroad next week.据说我们英语老师下周要去出国。
*It +不及物动词（seems，appears，happens， matters等）+that从句
It seems that she is in great need of help.看来她急帮忙。
4）主语为从句时，一般要用单数谓语动词形式；但如果引导的从句作主语、代表复数概念（常可从表语上看出）时，谓语动词则常用复数形式：
What we need is water. 我们需要的是水。
What we need are useful books. 我们需要的是有用的书。
三、由连接代词或连接副词（或if, whether）引导的主语从句。
When they will come hasn't been made public.他们什么时候回来还没有宣布。
Whether I’ll attend the meeting hasn’t been decided.=It hasn’t been decided whether(if) I’ll attend the meeting.我是否参加会议还未决定。

4. 你不能永远依赖你的双亲。
5. 我们初次见面到如今已有好多年了。
【答案及解析】
【高考链接】
1. B 因谓语动词depends on，说明go camping这件事尚未确定。主语从句在句首时，不用if，故用whether。
2. A 本句兼考查主语从句与表语从句。
3. C 此题中有两个不是并列的动词谓语，而Anyone和The person不是连接代词，也不是关系代词，所以先排除A和B；又whoever=the person who,故选C.
4. A 本句考查“do what one can（do）”这一句型。用whatever代what语气更强。
5. C what引导主语从句，在从句中做主语，it是形式主语；that引导主语从句时，只起引导作用，不作任何成分。
6. A 主语从句we can’t get后缺宾语，故需用what；而than后分句也缺宾语，仍需用what。
7. D 根据句子结构可知本题考查名词性从句用法，故A、B项排除；whatever与whichever的不同之处在于前者没有范围而后者有范围，而本句中所表达的是在本周六参加比赛的获胜队，是有范围的，故D项正确。
8 A what引导主语从句，在主语从句中作主语。表语从句部分是说明该商店与众不同的具体内容，并未指人，因此排除B、D两项；whatever：anything that … 意为“……的任何事物”，不合句意，故排除。
9. B 根据题干中的…to do is…可知主语从句中缺少主语，而选项中能作主语从句主语的只有what。
10. C 此句中it作形式主语，代替后面的that从句，而且that从句内容与require构成被动关系，故C项正确。
