Check retelling of the passage.The explosion of the earth produced water vapor, which turned into water when the earth cooled down. Water allowed the earth to dissolve harmful gases into the oceans and seas. That made it possible for life to begin to develop. The arrival of small plants encouraged the development of early shellfish and all sorts of fish. Many millions of years later the first green plants began to appear on land. Later land animals appeared. Some were insects. Others, called amphibians, were able to live on land as well as in the sea. When the plants grew into forests, reptiles appeared for the first time. Later, dinosaurs developed. They became the most important animals on the earth for millions of years. After they disappeared, mammals became more important. They were the last group of animals and they were different because they produced their young from within their bodies. Small clever animals, with hands and feet, appeared and spread all over the earth. As time went by, they covered the earth and have become the most important animals on the planet.2.

T: Look at the screen. What part does the underlined part serve as in each sentence? Or find its subject in each sentence.S: .All the underlined parts serve as subject in each sentence.T: Now look at sentence 6 and 7. Find out the subject of each sentence.S: “what she said, that we shall be late” .T: We can see from these sentences that a sentence serves as subject, so we call it Subject Clause. Now look at sentence 8. Whats the subject?S: “it.”T: Yes. But its not the real subject. Whats the real subject?S: “we shall be late.” T: You are quite right. When the subject in a Subject Clause is long, we usually use “it” serves as subject, and the real subject is put at the back of the sentence led by “that”. Are you clear?S: Yes.T: Now remember some words that can lead Subject Clause. Turn to Page95. They are “that, whether, who, what, which, when, where, how, why”. All of you should learn them by heart. Now turn to Page28. What I want you to do is to find three more sentences with subject clauses from the reading passage.Step IV Grammar1.Give them some time to find the sentences in the passage. Then collect answers from the class.Show the answers:1. Because it was not clear whether the solid shape was to last or not.2. What scientists think is that the earth was different because of 3. Whether life will continue on the earth for millions of years to come will depend on 2.Show typical examples of how to make a Subject Clause. Guide the Ss to find out what changes we have to make when we make a sentence or combine two sentences using Subject Clause. Teachers show the example and Ss write down the sentences.Its certain.Well be late.Its certain that we will be late. orThat well be late is certain.Is he coming or not?We dont know.Whether he is coming is not known.What does he want to tell us?We dont know.What he wants to tell us is not known.When will you come back?It doesnt matter.When you will come back doesnt matter.T: Now well come to Part2. The sentences on the left are complex and noun clauses. The sentences on the right are simple sentences. What we should do is to make a change between them. Now finish Part2 as soon as possible. Pay attention to that “die out” means “extinction”.Ss do it and discuss the answers.Show the answers:How fish developed from early shellfish is well-known.What reptiles look like and how large they are is strange. The extinction of dinosaur is a mystery.The importance of early plants was not known to scientists.3.T: Turn to Page64.
