二．教學步驟

Step ⅠLead-in

This step is to lead the Ss to the topic of this unit ― A Healthy Life.

T: Recently, I read a report — Healthy China, 2005, which is about ten health issues concerning Chine

people the most in the year 2005. According to your understanding, what a healthy life is like? And

can you guess what the ten issues are? Work in pairs and have a discussion.

After about 3 minutes.

T: OK, who would like to prent your discussions?

S1: Let me try. In our opinion, a healthy life should include two aspects, physical health and mental

health. So a person who lacks either is not a healthy person. We think of veral issues that may concern

people most, they are: food curity, medical rvice problems, AIDS and effects of environmental

pollution on health.

T: Good points. Other issues concerning people most are: nutrition and health condition, medical

emergency treatment, mental illness, fal medical ads, medicine curity and birth defects. If you

are interested in any of the issues, you may arch on the Internet for more information. Now turn

to page 17, Warming Up. Here is a list of health issues that concern young people the most. Can you

think of other issues that are also important? Work with your partners, and try to make the list longer.

A sample list:

AIDS and infections, parenting, relationships, food and nutrition, family issues, environmental health,

domestic violence, air pollution, cancer, anxiety, birth control, dental health, divorce

Let the Ss write the list on the blackboard and have a discussion on the health issues listed.

T: Now, look at the issues on the blackboard and the issues listed in the textbook on page 17. Which

issue do you think is the most important one? Why? Work in groups and have a discussion.

After discussion.

T: Which group would like to share your opinions with the class?

S1: We think that drug taking is particularly important. As we all know, drug taking does great harm

to people’s health; it will gradually kill a person if he gets addicted to it. Buying drug costs a

lot of money, so many drug takers ll out their fortune to afford the drug they need. And as a result,

many families break up in this way. We also know that our government has to spend a lot of money on

drug addicts’ treatment.

S2: We think parenting is the most important issue, becau many issues ari as a result of bad parenting

or lack of care and love. If children grow up in happy and healthy families, they will form good habits

and keep away from tho bad habits such as using drugs and smoking.

S3: Our group takes smoking as the most important issue. The reasons are: smoking does great harm to

people’s health, it caus damage to people’s lung and heart; smoking shortens people’s life-span;

smoking not only does harm to people who smoke, but also affect the health of people around them,

especially their family members.

Step Ⅱ Pre-reading

T: I agree with you all. All the issues are important and need to be concerned. I am wondering if

any of you smoke. Anyone? ... OK. It ems nobody in our class smokes, that’s really good. I think

you are all clear that smoking is harmful to health. But we know that some adolescents started smoking

at very early years. Why do you think they smoke? Discuss in pairs.

2 minutes later.

T: OK. I’d like two pairs to prent your opinions. Volunteer?

S4: I think some adolescents smoke becau they are not well aware of the harm of smoking. Many adults

around them smoke, so they may think it is cool to smoke. So I think it is parents’ duty to tell their

kids about the harm of smoking before they get addicted to it.

S5: In my opinion, some adolescents smoke becau they are fally influenced by some media such as

TV ries and movies. So I think public media should give adolescents correct guidance.

T: Very good points. Suppo some of them realized the harm of smoking and wanted to stop it. What advice

would you give to them? Do you know any scientific ways of stopping smoking?

S6: My advice is that let them get interested in some positive hobbies like sports, playing music, reading,

playing chess and so on. If they show interest in some activities and they can devote themlves to

them, gradually they will keep away from cigarettes and finally quit smoking.

Step Ⅲ Reading and Comprehension

T: Good advice. Now we are going to read a letter from grandad to James. In this letter, grandad gives

James some advice on stopping smoking. Let’s read and e if his advice is similar to yours. 5 minutes

for you.

After 5 minutes.

T: OK. Time is up. After reading this letter, what kind of person do you think the grandad is?

S7: From his words, I think he is very kind and considerate. He doesn’t give direct advice on stopping

smoking. Instead, firstly he tells James how about his prent life and what the healthy life means

to him; then he relates James’ smoking to his similar experience as a teenager, which implies James

that he doesn’t need to worry about it. So I think he is very careful about the way of talking to his

grandson about smoking.

T: You are right. So suppo you were his grandson, would you love to take his advice?

S7: Yes, I would love to be his grandson and take his advice. I would feel confident to give up smoking.

T: OK. Now let’s read the letter again and try to find out the answers to the following statements.

Show the following on the screen.

1. different ways people can become addicted to cigarettes

2. harmful physical effects for smokers

3. effects that a person’s smoking can have on other people

4. effects that smoking can have on sporting performance

After the Ss read the letter again, let them give their answers orally and then let them fill in the

chart on page 20 with brief phras and ntences.

T: Up to now, we have known how people usually get addicted to cigarettes and harmful effects of smoking

on smokers and nonsmokers. But how can people stop smoking? Does James’ grandad tell him how to stop

smoking?

S8: Yes, he tells James how to stop smoking by nding him some advice he found on the Internet.

T: Good. Now, let’s read the article from Internet. And then we will do an oral practice. You will

have to work in pairs. Suppo James paid a visit to his grandad, and his grandad told him some advice

on how to stop smoking face to face. Let’s act out this situation according to information from the

article.

A sample dialogue: (J = James; G = grandad)

J: Grandad, I really want to give up smoking. I tried hard, but failed. Can you give me some advice

on how to stop smoking?

G: I am very glad that you have realized the harm of smoking and make up your mind to stop it. Here

I have a few suggestions for you. First, make a list of all the benefits you will get from stopping

smoking. Second, decide on a day to quit and throw away all your cigarettes at the end of the day before

you plan to quit. Third, every time you feel like smoking, reread the list of benefits you wrote. Fourth,

develop some other good habits that will keep your mind and hands busy such as going for a walk, cleaning

your hou and so on.

J: What should I do if I feel stresd?

G: You can do some deep breathing. You may also learn some relaxation exercis and do them every time

you feel stresd.

J: Is it a good idea to join a stop-smoking group?

G: Yeah, it is also a good way. You can talk to a doctor or chemist if you feel really bad, they would

love to help you. The most important thing is to keep trying. Be aware that some have to try veral

times before they finally stop smoking. So you just try again and I am sure you will succeed finally.

Step Ⅳ Text Analysis

Ask the Ss to analyze the text on its writing purpo, writing style and main idea.

T: After reading the text, who can summarize the main idea of each paragraph? Volunteers?

S1: In the first paragraph, the writer tells about the life he is leading and the importance of healthy

life.

S2: In the cond paragraph, the writer leads to the topic of his letter by talking about James’ problem

of smoking.

S3: The third paragraph introduces the three different ways of becoming addicted.

S4: The fourth paragraph is about the harmful effects of smoking.

S5: The fifth paragraph is about the writer’s hope for his grandson and his advice on stopping smoking.

T: How about the writing style and purpo of the text?

S6: This text is in the form of a letter, the purpo is to explain how people get addicted to cigarettes

and how smoking affects people’s health. It also provides some advice on how to stop smoking.

T: Next, who can summarize the article: How Can I Stop Smoking?

A sample summary:

Choo a day that is not stressful to quit smoking. Make a list of all the benefits you will get from

stopping smoking. Throw away all your cigarettes at the end of the day before you plan to quit. Reread

the list of benefits you wrote when you feel like smoking. Develop some other habits like walking, drinking

some water, cleaning the hou and so on to keep yourlf busy. If you feel nervous or stresd, try

to do some relaxation exercis like deep breathing. You can stop smoking with a friend or join a group.

If you feel really bad, ask a doctor or chemist for help. The most important thing is to keep trying.

Don’t feel ashamed if you weaken becau some people have to try many times before they finally quit

smoking. Never give up and you will succeed.

Step V Vocabulary Learning

Help the Ss learn some words and phras in the text. And let them do some practice.

Show the following ntences on the screen.

1. I think my long and active life must be due to the healthy life I live.

2. ... I became addicted to cigarettes.

3. ... your body becomes accustomed to having nicotine in it ...

4. You can become mentally addicted.

5. But I did finally manage.

6. I knew it was time to quit smoking.

T: Now let’s deal with some new words and phras in the text. Look at the first ntence, what does

“due to” mean? Can you rewrite the ntence using other words except “due to”?

S1: “Due to” here means “becau of / owing to”. We may also say: Becau of the healthy life I

live, I can live long and actively.

T: Good. Number two. “Addicted” means “unable to stop taking or using something as a habit”, it

is usually followed by “to”. According to this definition, what el can people become addicted to?

S2: People can become addicted to drugs, alcohol, sweets and so on.

T: You are right. We call tho who are unable to stop taking or using sth addicts. So addict here is

a noun, indicating a kind of person. Tom, are you a cigarette addict?

S3: No, I am not. I am not addicted to cigarettes.

T: OK. In ntence 3, which phra you have learnt can be ud to replace “accustomed to”? Anyone?

S4: We may u “ud to” to replace it. So this ntence can be rewritten as: ... your body becomes

ud to having nicotine in it ...

T: I’d like one ntence from you by using this phra. Volunteer?

S5: Having stayed in the bament for veral minutes, I finally became accustomed to the darkness.

T: Next, what is the opposite of “mentally”?

S6: Physically.

T: “Manage” in ntence 5 can be ud in many ways. What does it mean here?

S7: Here it refers to “give up smoking”.

T: Good. Here it means “succeed in doing sth; cope / deal with sth”. e.g. This is a complicated job,

I can’t manage it without any help. Let’s look at the next ntence. We can e “quit” is followed

by -ing form. Do you know any other words that can be ud in the same way?

S8: Yes, for example, stop, start and enjoy. “Quit” here means “stop, give up sth / doing sth”.

e.g. My mother quitted her job recently becau she feels tired and wants a long vacation.

Step Ⅵ Homework
