T: We have looked at some cultural relics of Ancient Greece, China and Egypt above. Do you want to know more about Chinese cult
18、ural relics?S: Yes.Then show the pictures on page 44. Tell the students they were found during an excavation in the Sanxingdui Ruins. T: What do you know about Sanxingdui Ruins?S1: I know that Sanxingdui Ruins are found in Sichuan Province.S2: They are famous for gold masks, bronze wares, jade table
19、ts and sacred trees.S3: And half human and half-animal masks. There is Sanxingdui International Mask Festival at the start of the May Day holiday.S4: It is believed that Sanxingdui was the capital of the ancient “Shu culture” of the Sichuan area, previously believed to be 3,000 years old. A metropol
20、is of its time, covering about three square kilometers, Sanxingdui had highly developed agriculture, including wine-making ability, ceramic technology and sacrificial tools and mining.T: Good, Sanxingdui Ruins are very important cultural relics for us Chinese and even the whole world. Some 100 years
21、 ago, Sanxingdui in todays Sichuan Province was nothing more than a typical rural area, and just 20 years ago its significance was not fully known. But in 1929 when a farmer found some jade, he unwittingly opened the door of an unknown culture between 3,000 to 5,000 years old. But what no one could
22、have expected was that this particular discovery would rewrite Chinese history. The area whose name means “three-star mounds” in English is not a place foreigners who arent archeologists would know to visit. And little is left for the common person to see but some ancient objects and many reproducti
23、ons. Many objects at first seem somewhat commonplace for old cultures until you realize that the people making these objects were those living at the beginning of Chinese civilization. Now suppose you work in a museum, your job is to describe the objects as they are brought to the museum. Look at th
24、e pictures and discuss about these objects. Show the following on the screen. Give the students three minutes to discuss. 1. Guess what they are.2. Discuss what these objects were possibly used for.3. Describe these objects. You should include:a. The name of the site where the four objects were foun
25、d and their possible dates;b. A description of each including appearance, shape and a guess about the material it was made of;c. What we can learn from these objects about the people who lived then.After a few minutes. T: OK, so much for discussion. First look at the questions on the screen again. W
26、hat are the answers?S1: In my opinion, the first one looks like a tree. It might be made of bronze. Also, it might be used to offer sacrifices to gods or ancestors.S2: I think the second picture is an animal-face image. It might also be made of bronze. It might stand for authority.S3: It looks like
27、a bird. I think it could be made of bronze and it might be an ornament.S4: It may be a pottery pot, which is used to contain boiled water or wine.T: Well done. Your guesses sound reasonable. Look at the screen. These are what I have found about these things. Show the following.1. bronze sacred tree
28、442802- 52kb.2. bronze animal-face image 520364-55kb. 3. bird-shaped ornament 1s500815-50kb t1.4. pottery pot 579924-170kb.Deal with the SPEAKING TASK. T: Above are objects in ancient China. Now lets turn to a picture of ancient Egypt. Turn to page 84. Read the instructions and discuss the painting
29、and then fill in the chart in Part 1. A sample dialogue:S1: What can you find in the painting?S2: I can find some people are sitting on low stools, served by someone. S1: Yes. In the lower part of the picture, someone is holding a plate with meat of poultry. And on the table there are other kinds of
30、 food.S2: Look. There hang some clothes on the wall. They had to take off clothes when having dinner.S1: I agree. And we can see that their meals are arranged well. Maybe the soup must be first served, and then comes the meat.S2: Do you find someone dancing? S1: Yes. Maybe they are watching the danc
31、ing while eating. Ask the students to read their answers. Evidence from the wall paintingFoodArrangements for the mealClothesHygieneEntertainmentPeopleSomeone is holding a plate with goose meat in itSomething like soup are served first, then another one presents the meat .Clothes are hanging on the
32、wallThe room is clean and they took off clothes when eating. Someone is dancing Some are sitting on the tools and served by others who dress differently.Then go on with Part 2. Ask the students to show their conclusion after discussion. A description of ancient Egyptian life:The few furnishings in t
33、he ancient Egyptian home were simple in design. The most common piece of furniture was a low stool, used by all Egyptians including the pharaoh. And someone was dancing for them while they are eating. Perhaps there was music too. It is reasonable to assume that the people sitting on the stools in th
34、e painting were of higher social positions. As we can see from the painting, there hung some clothes on the wall. It seems that they should take off clothes when having dinner. We think they were doing well in hygiene. Our evidence suggests that the ancient Egyptian people were very particular to th
35、eir food and clothes, and paid great attention to hygiene. Step ListeningGive the students one minute to scan the questions first. T: Now, tell me what you have learnt from the tape?S1: Ive known the methods that archaeologists use to date bones. Theyre layers in the ground and radiocarbon dating.S2
36、: Besides, each layer looks different as they are uncovered, so we can tell where one layer starts and another finishes.S3: All living things have carbon in their bodies. When they die, the carbon will relive at a certain rate. Archaeologists can use radioactivity to tell how old the remains are.T:
37、Good. Now please listen to the recording and fill in the diagram and the chart. Check the answers with the class. Then ask the students to do Part 3. Sample answers:I think the chronological order is B-C-A. I reached the conclusion by looking at the layers on the ground. From the picture, we can see
38、 B has no layers, which suggests it is built primitively; C has thin layers of ash, which suggests the building is built a bit later than B. A has the thickest layers, which suggests that the ground has been developing for many years and building A is built later than C. So my chronological order is
39、 B-C-A.Listening task T: After we learned some archaeological knowledge, lets look at something about ancient Egypt. Now turn to page 81, you are given three minutes to discuss the first question: what did the ancient Egyptians believe? Three minutes later, let the students show their discussion.S1:
40、 According to the picture, I think the ancient Egyptians believed that the physical body had to be preserved to allow a place for their spirit to dwell in the afterlife. Because of this, mummification was performed to preserve the body.S2: Egyptians believed that the body was the link to a spiritual
41、 existence in the afterlife. The body was mummified so the spirit could get needed food and drink in the afterlife. In case the body was destroyed or damaged, magical spells were placed on a statue of the deceased so the spirit could continue to have their needs met.Sample answers: The Egyptians bel
42、ieved that death was simply a temporary interruption, rather than complete cessation, of life, and that eternal life could be ensured by means of like piety to the gods, preservation of the physical form, and the provision of statuary and other funerary equipment. The Name and Shadow were also livin
43、g entities. To enjoy the afterlife, all these elements had to be sustained and protected from harm.Then play the tape and ask them to finish the rest exercises. Give the students several minutes to finish the listening exercises on page 78. Several minutes later, check the answers with the students.
44、T: After listening, we know that the tomb of Emperor Qin Shihuang is a magnificent archaeological site. Then as an individual, what can you do to help preserve important cultural sites like this?S1: As individuals, we should learn first something about these cultural sites and then how to protect th
45、em. With these knowledge, we can do something useful. S2: As an individual, I think we can do nothing but study hard. And when we travel, we can help preserve these cultural sites. For example, not throwing away rubbish, or not writing or cutting the statues. T: OK, well done. We know that all kinds
46、 of cultural relics are important to us. They provide us precious historical information and real objects, which tell us the life of ancient people. Thanks to our ancestors, we can enjoy their great creativity and valuable gifts left to us. As a young generation, you should study hard and make up your mind to do something to help preserve these cultural sites. Step HomeworkAsk the students to find some information about Zhoukoudian Caves.
