T. Do you often have some fantastic ideas? We know a scientist should have a quality of imagination, it is the same with a writer. The French writer JulesVerne liked reading books about science and technology and used fantastic ideas that he got from the books and wrote many famous science fictions ( stories and novels about imaginary people and events). Now lets know about Jules Verne. (Warming up 1)Jules Verne (1828-1905), French writer and pioneer（father） of science fiction, whose best known works today are Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea(1870)Around the World in Eighty Days (1873).Journey to the Center of the Earth(1864)Now, look at the covers of the two books written by Jules Verne.The book “20 000 Leagues under the sea”.It mainly tells us a story in which Dr Aronnax,his servant and a Canadian whale hunter were kept as prisoners by Captain Nemo and then went on a voyage across the oceans by the Nautilus.The book “Journey to the Center of the Earth” describes what two men experienced after entering the centre of the earth through a chimney in an extinct volcano,which lies in Ireland.Step4 Speaking Make full use of your imagination to create a fantasy based on the present science and technology，using some of the useful expression。For example： Space travelA: I dont believe it is possible for man to reach Mars. B: Why not? Two hundred years ago nobody thought it was possible to talk with his relative living far away.A: To reach Mars has more difficulty than for us to talk with our relatives living far away.B: Im certain that well be able to develop.Creatures from outer spaceA: Do you believe that creatures exist on other planets?B: Yes, I do, even though we have no evidence now.A: Really? Tell me your reasons.B: There are so many stars. Im sure there are creatures existing on other planets. Oral practice：1 Life in 3098 2 Young foreverStep 5 language points1. distance n. 距离，远处，远方eg: I dont know the distance from Beijing to Shanghai 其形容词形式是distant, 意思是“遥远的, 远亲的，疏远的”， eg: He is my distant relative 常用搭配：in the distance 在远处，远距离 at a distance 隔开一点， from a distance 从远处 eg: You can see the ancient ruins in the distance. The picture looks better at a distance. 问“距离是多少”时，用what ,不能用how far,类似的还有 the price, the population, the speed等。Eg: What is the distance between the sun and the earth? = How far is it from the sun to the earth? What is the price of the bag? = How much is the bag? What is the population of China? = How many people are there in China? The distance between them is great (不能用far修饰distance)2. Doctors may find a way to keep us young forever(P10) to keep us young forever 是不定式做后置定语 在 chance, way, opportunity, time 等名词后，既可用不定式，又可用“介词+动词”作定语， 如： I am glad to have the opportunity to talk to you/ of talking to you. 在 ability, resolution, tendency 等名词后，通常用不定式做后置定语。如： Does he have the ability to do the work? 当被修饰的名词前有序数词修饰时，该名词的后置定语也用不定式而不是“介词+动词” Antonio Gaudi is the first one to understand that 而在 habit, idea, intention, method, objection 等名词后，通常只跟“介词+动词” I have the habit of taking a nap after lunch.【活学活练】1. Id like to have the chance_(见一下你们老师)2. He has made a resolution _(出国)3. He is always _(第一个来，最后一个离开)4. She dismissed the idea_(当艺术家)5.

Now, we talked about science fiction. There is a general agreement that science fiction as a genre(体裁)didnnot come into being until about the time of the Industrial Revolution. The mid- nineteenth century saw many discovries, inventions and developments in various branches of science. It was also the first time in history that many of these inventions were described in books and newspapers , which were printed in large numbers shortly after discoveries were made, and which, through public libraries(which were also a new thing) to many readers. Ok, lets clearn more about scientific facts. Look at the pictures on page 11.(Pre-reading 中的1、2、4 可作。3省略。4尤为重要。)Here are three great inventions. Who can say when the inventions in the pictures were made?Picture 1: It was invented in the early years of the 20th century. (Electricity was discovered in 1600 by Gilbert. Electricity serves people in many fields andis used for light, heating, power, etc.)Picture 2: Thomas Edison invented the light bulb in 1879 Picture 3: In 1769 James Watt built a steam-powered boat.
