Teaching procedures:
Step 1 Revision
We have known much about pollution around. What are the problems we are facing? Which one do you think is the most important? Why?
Group 1: The lack of safe and clean water.
More than 1.2 billion people lack access to clean and safe water
Providing safe and clean drinking water would save money by freeing hospital beds from patients with disease caused by dirty water.
12 percent of the world’s population uses 85 percent of its water, and these 12percent live in developed countries.
Group 2: Air pollution
Air pollution causes more than 2.7 million deaths in the world every year.
Most air pollution is caused by the burning of fuels like coal, gas and oil.
Each year tens of thousands of people die as a result of breathing polluted air.
Air pollution causes other diseases and may make it easier for children to get sick in the future.
Group 3: Poor sanitation
Over 2.4 billion people have no access to sanitation.
Every day, as many as half of all the people on the earth suffer from one of the many diseases caused by poor sanitation.
Without proper sanitation, efforts to improve health care are useless.
Group 4: Poverty
Half the world lives on less than two dollars a day.1.3 billion people live on less than one dollar a day.
In the year 2000, some 1.7 million children died as a result of poverty.
Almost 800 million people on the world do not have enough to eat.
Step 2 Speaking
1. Talking about what Ss can see in the picture.
(1) (2)
Q1: What is being piled in the picture 1?
Q2: What can coal be used for?
Q3: What is being giving off from the workshop?
Q4: What is being polluted?
Every coin has two sides. It is true with coal, which is a valuable resource that can be used to produce energy, but it can also cause serious pollution.
2. Group work: A debate Coal is/isn’t a valuable resource.
pros cons
A businessman An environmentalist
A scientist A local citizen
A local leader
… …
1. As we know, coal is a valuable resource to produce energy, but it can also cause serious pollution. We will attend a meeting and discuss the issue.
2. Four Ss get a group. You are citizen, businessman, scientist and environmentalist.
Citizen: We must burn the coal so that we can get money to develop our area as soon as possible, because…
Businessman: We should burn the coal because…
Scientist: We should spend more money on science so that we can use the coal in a better way, because…
Environmentalist: We shouldn’t burn the coal because…
3. As a local leader in this area, summarize and help the speakers decide.
4. Ask the Ss use these useful expressions:
We must make sure that… It’s clear that…
I believe that we must… I’m all for…
If nothing is done…, then… I can’t imagine that…
Sure/ certainly / absolutely It would be better if we…
Is there a better way to…?

States were invited to devote the Day, as appropriate in the national context, to concrete activities such as the promotion of public awareness through the publication and diffusion of documentaries and the organization of conferences, round tables, seminars and expositions related to the conservation and development of water resources and the implementation of the recommendations of Agenda 21.

A. the game began B. has the game begun
C. did the game begin D. had the game begun答案D. 以具有否定意義的副詞放在句首時(shí),一般采用倒裝句(謂語(yǔ)前置)。這類(lèi)表示否定意義的詞有never, seldom, scarcely, little, few, not, hardly, 以及not only…but (also), no sooner…than, hardly… when scarcely… when等等。

詞組“to one’s joy”意思是“使人高興的是”,在句子中作狀語(yǔ),不能當(dāng)作句子使用;其中的名詞多為表示人的情緒的名詞如:surprise, joy, astonishment, horror, relief, satisfaction, sorrow等,如:

We are determined to complete the work in time. 我們決心按時(shí)完成工作。
