(g)7). water appeared on the earth. (b)8). shellfish and other fish appeared. (d)9). the universe began with a “big bang”. (f)10). clever animals with hands and feet appeared. (a)11). mammals appeared. (l)12). the earth was a cloud of dust. (k)4. choose the best answers to the questions:1). what is important for the beginning of life?a. the water on the earth. b. the earths atmosphere.c. the form of forests. d. dissolving harmful gases.2). which of the following appeared on the earth first? a. insects b. reptiles c. amphibians d. shellfish and fish.3. which of the following statements is true? a. water still exists on mars b. the earths atmosphere is made up of oxygen and nitrogenc. the earth had dissolved the harmful atmosphere into the ocean and seas.d. plants provide oxygen to the earth.4). what is the passage mainly about? a. the appearance and development of life on the earth.b. the birth of the earth.c. why dinosaurs died out.d. the fact that human being caused begins global warming.4. reading and discussion:1). why was the earth different from the other planets?(because the water remained on the earth.)2). why did the plants grow before the animals came?(because plants provide oxygen for animals to breathe.)3). why is it wrong to show films with dinosaurs and people together?(because dinosaurs died out long before human beings developed on the earth.)4). what problem is caused by human beings?(human beings caused global warming.)5. explanations: discuss the following important sentences and phrases.1). what is was to become was uncertain until between 4.5 and 3.8 billion years ago when the dust settled into solid globe.2). the earth became so violent that it was not clear whether the shape would last or not.3). they were in time to produce carbon, nitrogen, water vapor and other gases, which were to make the earths atmosphere.4). so whether life will continue on the earth for millions of years to come will depend on whether this problem can be solved.suggested answers:6. reading aloud and understanding: ask them to read the passage aloud to the tape and let them pay attention to the pronunciation of each new words and the pause within each sentence and pick out the useful expressions and collocations.on the earth, according to, a cloud of dust, so that, whether or not, in time, water vapor, cool down, on ones surface, allow to do sth. a chain reaction, millions of, on the surface of, be able to, as well as, by doing. lay eggs, be different from, give birth to, spread all over the earth, in ones turn, prevent from, as a result of, too to, depend on7.填空exist, live, prevent.from, protectfrom, multiply, develop, climate, weather one hundred and forty million years before humans existed, dinosaurs ruled the earth. they lived for so long on the earth that they developed into many different species. they had few natural enemies besides each other, so each species had to protect their young from being eaten by other dinosaurs. as they lived in a warm and wet climate, there was plenty of food so dinosaur s
