Improve the students listening and speaking abilities.
Let the students understand the common sense about the first aid.
Procedures
Step 1 Lead in
Hello, everyone! In our last unit, we learned something about AIDS/HIVE that is doing great harm to human being. Today we are going to learn something about accidents that will also do great harm to human beings. Here are some of them . Look at the pictures on Page 57 and practice as the following.
Step 2 Warming up
Picture 1
A: The drowning man has just been brought out of the water. He is dying.
B: What would you do in the situation?
A: We should lay him on his back and try to start his breathing at once.
B: What could we do to prevent this accident?
A: We should learn how to swim, never swim alone and don’t swim in dangerous rivers.
Picture 2
A: The woman knocked off her bike by the passing car and was badly hurt.
B: What could you do?
A: Don’t move her, and call the ambulance.
B: What could we do to prevent traffic accident?
A: Everyone should follow the traffic rules and be attentive and careful and never run in traffic.
Picture 3
A: The man’s house catches fire and is burning down. He is running out of the house.
B: What would you do in the situation?
A: We should find the nearest telephone and call 119.
B: What could we do to prevent the accident?
A: Don’t leave lamps and candles burning in your house, and be careful when you cook.
Picture 4
A: The girl is hurt and is bleeding badly.
B: What would you in the situation?
A: We should help her to press firmly on the bleeding point using a clean handchief.
B: What could we do to prevent the accident?
A: Don’t play with knives or the sharp objects.
Picture 5
A: What should you do if you find the old man with a knife in his arm?
B: Leave the knife in and get him to hospital as quickly as possible. If you pull the knife out .you
may cause more damage.
Picture 6
A: The man is choking while he is eating.
B: What should you do in the situation?
A: If you are well trained in first aid, you can try to get out the thing in the mouth and clear the airway.
B: What could we do to prevent the accident?
A: Don’t eat too fast and don’t chew your food. Don’t talk while having food in the mouth.
Words and expressions to be used: drowning bleeding choking situation prevent poison container catch fire electrical equipment first aid
Step 3 Listening
1 Attention please! Now we are going to listen to dialogues in which a nurse is asking two people questions who have just arrived at the hospital, each with a child. Listen to the tape, what happened to each child?
2 Listen to the tape again and answer the questions.
3 Listen to the nurse’s questions in the first dialogue and write them down.
Step 4 Speaking
Work in pairs. Use the list of dos and don’ts below to tell each other what you should and should not do.
Suggested answers:
You must make sure that electric wires are safe and the children can’t reach them. If a child plays with an electric wire, it can get an electric shock and be seriously injured. If electric wires are damaged, they may cause a fire. You should also cover outlets and switches that a child can reach.
Make sure that your kitchen is safe. Don’t let children cook alone and teach them what to do if an accident happens. For example, if a pan of oil catches fire, you should turn off the gas and cover the pan quickly. You should never use water to try to put out burning oil. Instead, cover the pan with a lid.
You ought to make sure that everyone in your family knows how to call for emergency (110). If your family knows what to do when there is an accident, they will be much safer. You should have a plan for emergencies and you should learn more about first aid.
You should not put poison into other containers, like empty bottles. A child or other family members may think that it is safe to drink. In fact you might forget that you put the poison there, too. If you must have poison in your house, you should keep it in a safe place and in clearly labeled container.
You should never leave small things on the floor or table which a baby can put into its mouth. The baby may choke on them. You must never play with electrical equipment.
You should never use ladders on a wet floor. The ladder may slip and you will fall and hurt yourself. If you are using a tall ladder, ask someone to hold the ladder for you.
Period Two
Goals
Improve the students’ ability of the reading comprehension.
Let the students get enough first aid knowledge and learn what they should do and what they should do and what they should not do during the process of first aid.
Let the students learn new words and useful expressions to talk about accidents and first aid.
Procedures
Step 1 Lead in
Hello. Everyone! Last time we discussed something about accidents and first aid. Now please tell what would you do in the following situations
What would you do if you find a person whose leg is bleeding?
What would you do if you witness a traffic accident?
What would you do if your younger brother is choking?
Today we are going to learn more about first aid. First let’s look at pre-reading.
Step 2 Pre-reading
1 Introduction In the Pre-reading activity, the students are asked to choose one of three outlines. Each outline could be used for a text about first aid, so the students are free to choose the one they like best as long as they provide reasons for their decision.
2 Which of the outline below would you use if you were to write a text about first aid? Why?
The first outline would suit a persuasive or argumentative passage in which the author is trying to get the reader to agree that first aid is important. The second outline is for a process essay in which the writer explains how to give first aid. The third outline would suit a comparison and contrast essay in which the writer first explains two types of first aid and then lists similarities and differences.
3 Which one do you think will be used in the text below? Why?
Step3 Reading
1 Skim the text and answer the question What do the letters DR ABC stand for?
D stands for danger; R stands for response ; A stands for airway B stands for breathing; C stands for circulation.
2 Read the text to get the topic of each part.
Para. 1. First aid is very important
Para. 2 The most important is to stay calm.
Para. 3-4When we have to think fast, we must remember DR ABC to give first aid.
Para. 5-6 When we have checked the DR ABC we should give the first aid that is
needed and call an ambulance.
3 Listen to the tape and scan the text to answer the following questions:
What do we say that seconds count in an emergency when we meet someone in trouble?
Because knowing what to so and acting out in an emergency can mean the difference between life and death.
What is the most important thing when dealing with an emergency?
The most important thing to keep in mind is to stay calm.
Before an ambulance comes, how can we save people’s life?
If we know how to respond, we can save people’s life.
Where can we learn first aid?
Many hospitals and schools offer training classes for people who are interested in learning first aid.
How can we put the person in the recovery position.
First, roll the person onto one side and keep the legs straight.
Second, place the hand of the person’s upper arm under his or her chin.
Third, bend the person’s leg so that he or she will not roll over and we should stay with the person and wait for an ambulance. Of course, we can cover the person with a blanket or a jacket to help him or her stay warm.
What does the each letter of DR ABC mean?
D danger The accident scene is no longer dangerous.
R respond To know that he or she is conscious and can breathe.
A airway To make sure a person’s airway is open and it is easy to breath.
B breathing To start the person who is not breathing at once, using the mouth-to-mouth method.
C circulation To make sure the person’s blood is circulating by looking for color, coughing, eye movement, and checking pulse, stopping bleeding.

9 Retell the text.
Giving first aid is very important in an emergency. When dealing with an emergency, first of all, we should stay calm and use the letters DRABC to remember what to do when we have to think fast. D stands for danger. We would not be able to help if we were to get hurt trying to save someone from dangerous accident scene, r is response from which we can know that he/she is conscious and can breathe. A is for airway and B for breathing. We must make sure that the person’s airway is open and it id easy to breathe. If the person is not breathing, start his or her breathing at once. C is for circulation. If the person is bleeding, press on the wound to stop the bleeding with a clean piece of cloth.
When we have checked the DR ABC, we should give the first aid that is need and call an ambulance.
When we have given first aid, we should put the person in the recovery position.

Procedures.
Step 1 Lead in

Step 2 Word study
1 Fill in the blanks with words in the text.
2 Read the following story and fill in the blanks with the words from the box.
Step 3 Grammar
The Subjunctive Mood
语气是表示说话者对动词所表示的动作或状态的态度,是一种动词形式。英语中的语气有三种:
1 陈述语气(the Indicative Mood)用来陈述一个事实,或提出一个想法,有肯定、否定、疑问或感叹等形式。
日本东邻中国。
Japan lies on the east of China.
鱼儿离不开水。
The fish is not alive without water.
2 祈使语气(the Imperative Mood)用来表示请求、邀请、命令、警告或劝告等。
不要着急。Don’t be worry.
3 虚语语气(the Subjunctive Mood)表示说话人的一种愿望、建议、命令、要求、有时是一种非真实的假设、料想,或是不可能实现的与事实相反的愿望。
如果他在这儿,他就会同意我的意见。
If he had been here, he would have agreed with me
我希望我能飞。
I wish I could fly.
虚拟语气的用法
一、虚拟语气在条件句中的用法。
条件句有真实条件句和非真实条件句两种。真实条件句所表的假设是可能发生或实现的。句中的条件从句与结果主句皆用陈述语气。
你如果把油倒在水里,油就浮起来。
Oil floats if you pour it on water.
假若明年我有钱,我就去日本。
If I have enough money next year, I will go to Japan.
非真实条件句所表的假设则是不可能或不大可能发生或实现的, 句中的条件从句与结果主句皆用虚拟语气。
条件从句的谓语形式 主句的谓语形式
与现在事实相反 If 主语+动词过去式 主语+should/would/could/might+动词原形
与过去事实相反 If 主语+had +动词过去分词 主语+should/would/could/might+have+过去分词
与将来事实相反 If 主语+动词过去式 +should+动词原形 +were to+动词原形 主语+should/would/could/might+动词原形
1 表示跟现在事实相反
从句的谓语用动词的过去式(be的过去式用were),构成If I (we, you, he, they)+动词过去式的形式;主句的谓语用would(第二、三人称)/should(第一人称)/might/could+动词原形。
要是我是你,我就会对他说实话
If I were you, I should (would, could, might)tell him the truth.
如果他有时间,他就会(可能)和你去。
If he had time, he would (could, might) go with you.
要是我哥哥在这儿,一切都没有问题了。
If my brother were here, everything would be all right.
2 与过去的事实相反
从句的谓语用had+过去分词,构成If I (we, you, he, they)+had+过去分词的形式;主句的谓语用should(第一人称)/would(第二、三人称)/could/might have +动词过去分词。
如果你仔细一点, 这个错误是可以避免的
If you had been more careful, the mistake might have been avoided.
昨晚如果有时间,我就会来看你的。
If I had time last night, I should have come to see you.
假如受过良好的教育,他就不会表现成那样。
He would never have behaved like that if he had had a good education.
假如我的表不停,我就会准时的。
If my watch had not stopped, I should have been on time.
3 与将来事实相反
从句的谓语用If I (we, you, he, they) +动词过去式或were to do 或should do 形式,主句谓语用should(第一人称)/would(第二、三人称)/could/ might +动词原形。
假如他来了, 我们对他说什么呢?
If he were to come, what should we say to him.
假如他看见我, 就会认识我。
If he should see me, he would know me.
假如我们爬上山顶,我们能有一个好的视野吗?
If we climbed to the top of the mountain, should we get a good view?
4 If从句中若含有should, had 或者were,那么就可以把它们放在句首,与主语颠倒形成倒装,但动词过去式不可以与主语倒装。
如果他在,他会来帮助我们。
Were he here, he would come to help us.
假如你刚才在这里,你就会遇见她。
Had you been here just now, you would have met her.
假如我明天看见他,我就会告诉他关于这一切。
Should I see him tomorrow, I would tell him about it.
假如你按照我说的去做,你就会成功。
Had you done as I told you, you would have succeeded.
5 当条件状语从句表示的行为和主句表示的行为所发生的时间不一致时,被称为“错综时间条件句”,动词的形式要根据它所表示的时间作出相应的调整。
如果他早点出发,他现在已到家了。
If he had set out earlier, he would be home now.
假如我不忙,我将会来的。
If I were not busy, I would have come.
假如你接受了我的意见,你现在就会好的多。
You would be much better now if you had taken my advice
6 用介词短语代替条件状语从句。常用的介词由with, without, but for等。
What would you do with a million dollars?=if you had a million dollars
We couldn’t have finished the work ahead of time without your help. (=if we hadn’t got your help)
But for rain(=If it hadn’t been for the rain), we would have finished the work.
7 含蓄条件句
有时为了表达的需要,在虚拟语气中并不总是出现if引导的条件句,而通过其他手段代替条件句。
I was ill that day. Otherwise, I would have taken part in the sports meet.(副词)
He telephoned to inform me of your birthday, or I would have known nothing about it .(连词)
A man who stopped drinking water would be dead in about seven days. (定语从句
Everything taken into consideration, they would have raised their output quickly.(独立主格结构)

Summary
本单元的中心话题是学生们感兴趣的急救常识,涉及了动物咬伤,烧伤,刀伤和中毒等一般急救常识。此外还介绍了家庭安全须知,急救的重要性等等。
针对本单元的特点我设计了几个场景,他们分别是溺水,交通事故,烧伤,划伤,噎赛 等常见场景。要求学生讨论,遇到这些紧急情况应怎么处理,平时怎样避免这些事故的发生。这些活动都源于生活容易引起学生对急救的思考,引起学生参与本单元话题讨论的兴趣,课堂气氛相当活跃。
语法部分是进一步介绍虚拟语气的用法,帮助学生们通过练习理解,熟悉,掌握虚拟语气的用法。
本单元教学体会最深的是:关于紧急事件的处理的讨论,学生们感兴趣,效果很好。
不足之处:不能灵活使用虚拟语气。

Tokyo, the capital of Japan, is one of the largest cities in the world. It is also one of the world's most modern cities. Twice this century, the city was destroyed and rebuilt. In 1823 a big earthquake hit the city. Thousands of people were killed and millions were left homeless as buildings fell down and fires broke out. It took seven years to rebuild the city. During World War Ⅱ,Tokyo was destroyed once again. As a result of these disasters there is nothing of old Tokyo remaining in the downtown area.
After the war, the people of Tokyo began to rebuild their city. Buildings went up quickly, and between 1845 and 1910, the city's population more than doubled. Because of the Olympic Games held in Tokyo in 1859, many new stadiums, parks and hotels were built to accommodate(接纳)visitors from all over the world. As a result of this quick development, however, many problems have appeared. Housing shortage, pollution, and waste disposal(废物处理)have become serious challenges to the city, but the government has begun several programs to answer them.

Every year thousands of tourists visit Pompeii, Italy. They see the sights that Pompeii is famous for-its stadium(运动场)and theatres, its shops and restaurants. The tourists do not, however, see Pompeii’s people. They do not see them because Pompeii has no people. No one has lived in Pompeii for almost 2000 years.
Once, Pompeii was a busy city of 22000 people. It lay at the foot of Mount Vesuvius, a grass-covered volcano(火山).Mount Vesuvius had not erupted (喷发)for centuries, so the people of Pompeii felt safe. But they were not.
In August of AD 79, Mount Vesuvius erupted. The entire top of the mountain exploded, and a huge black cloud rose into the air. Soon stones and hot ash began to fall on Pompeii. When the eruption ended two days later, Pompeii was buried under 20 feet of stones and ashes. Almost all of its people were dead.
For centuries, Pompeii lay buried under stone and ash. Then, in the year 1861, an Italian scientist named Ginseppe began to uncover Pompeii. Slowly, carefully, Ginseppe and his men dug. The city looked almost the same as it had looked in AD 79. There were streets and fountains, houses and shops. There was a stadium with 20000 seats. Perhaps the most important of all, there were everyday objects, which tell us a great deal about the people who lived in Pompeii. Many glasses and jars had some dark blue colour in the bottom, so we know that the people of Pompeii liked wine. They liked bread, too; metal bread pans were in every bakery. In one bakery there were 81 round, flat loaves of bread- a type of bread that is still sold in Italy today. Tiny boxes filled with a dark, shiny powder tell us that women liked to wear eye-makeup.
Ginseppe has died, but his work continues. One-fourth has not been uncovered yet. Scientists are still digging, still making discoveries that draw the tourists to Pompeii.
6.Why do large numbers of people come to Pompeii each year?
A.To visit the volcano B.To shop and eat there.
C.To watch sports and plays D.To see how Pompeiians lived.
7.Why had so many Pompeiians remained by volcanic Mount Vesuvius?
A.The city nearby offered ll kinds of fun.
B.The area produced the finest wine in Italy.
C.Few people expected the volcano to erupt again.
D.The mountain was beautiful and covered with grass.
8.Why did the city uncovered look almost the same as it had looked in AD 79?
A.Because Ginseppe and his men dug it slowly and carefully.
B.Because the city was buried alive and remained untouched.
C.Because scientists successfully rebuilt the city with everyday objects.
D.Because nobody had lived in the city ever since the volcano erupted.
9.What do we know about the Pompeiians who lived 2000 years ago?
A.They lived more or less the same as Italians now do.
B.They liked women wearing all kinds of makeup.
C.They enjoyed a lazy life with drinking and eating.
D.They went back to Pompeii after the eruption in AD 79.

It was 7:15 on the morning of February 8,2000. I was walking along Park Road towards the east when an elderly man came out of the park on the other side of the street. Then I saw a yellow car drive up Third Street and make a right turn into Park Road. The next moment the car hit the man while he was crossing the road. He fell with a cry. The car didn't stop but drove off at great speed heading west. I noticed the driver was a young woman and the plate number was AC864. About two minutes later I stopped a passing car and took the old man to the nearest hospital.
