Module 6　Old and New【美文阅读】　The Yangtze River is home to one of the most beautiful natural scenes of China－the Three Gorges.But for generations，Chinese people have long dreamed of taming(制服，使顺从) the Yangtze River for power generation and flood control.The rivers endless floods have brought destruction and death for centuries－1 million deaths in the 20th century alone. Nowadays，along the Yangtze River，the third longest river in the world，a great construction project，the Three Gorges Dam is in progress.Once completed in 2016，it will be the largest and most powerful hydro-electric project in the world.Towering 610 feet high and stretching 1.3 miles wide，the dam will create a reservoir that extends nearly 400 miles upstream thus changing the original landscape of this region.　　 The project has been under discussion in China since the idea of the dam was first put forward in 1919.The Three Gorges Dam is both a marvel of engineering and the greatest challenge its designers have ever faced.The Three Gorges Dam has been engineered to store over 5 trillion gallons(加仑)of water and to withstand(经得起) an earthquake of 7.0 on the Richter scale(里氏级)．In addition, the government says the dam will control terrifying floods and provide electrical power to Chinas growing cities. Like Chinas Great Wall，it will be one of the few man-made structures that can be seen from space.The Chinese government and the dams engineers think of the project as a symbol of national pride.【诱思导学】　What do you think of the Three Gorges Dam project? 【答案】　 Students own answer.Period ⅠPreviewing(教师用书独具)●教学目标本课时主要是通过学生对学案所给出的内容的学习，了解本课文中所出现的词汇，初步了解课文以及相关的背景知识，对下一堂课对课文的全面理解起到一个铺垫作用。●教学地位该部分包括三个活动，要求学生根据提供的词汇、问题和三篇小短文，围绕人造工程(man-made projects)展开口头表达练习，为本模块的学习作准备。(教师用书独具)●新课导入建议在阅读前，要求学生两人一组，先讨论问题How much do you know about the Great Wall of China/Hong Kong International Airport/the Three Gorges Dam？然后用关键词记下主要信息；根据学生的问答的情况然后导入新课。●教学流程设
