96、to know something about jobs in your city. Ask the Ss to work in pairs to make out an introduction plan. Make a comparison between jobs at present and jobs in the future, and find out the changes and why these changes take place. T: In the first period of our unit, we discussed the changes between l
97、ife in the past and life at present, also we make a prediction about our future, right? Today lets still talk about the future. Suppose a man of AD 2046 comes to our city, he wants to know something about jobs in our city. How will you introduce the following two kinds of jobs to him? Teachers and f
98、armers. Give the Ss 1-2 minutes to discuss and then ask some of them to represent their opinions.T: OK. Who would like to talk about the job as a farmer?S: Nowadays farmers are still working very hard. Few of them use hi-tech machines, especially in developing countries. They have to work most by ha
99、nd everyday. Sometimes they will use some machines such as trucks, seeding-machines, etc. In developed countries, agriculture has been computerized. Farmers in those countries are much easier. T: Good. What about teachers?S: Nowadays lots of students stay in the classrooms to listen to their teacher
100、s. And the teachers have to use chalk, and sometimes they use computers.Set another scene.T: So it seems that both these two kinds of jobs are very challenging. Will they change in the future? Now the man invites you to his city in the year 2046, what changes will you expect to find on these two job
101、s? S: I think 40 years later, working as a farmer will be much easier than now. Farmers wont have to work by hand, they can set a program in the computer and then the computer will finish all the tasks. Its fantastic! And the harvest will be much better because of the science. S: I think in the futu
102、re we dont have to come to school to study. Teachers will work on the Internet. We will have classes through the Internet. And unlike todays teacher, in the future, a teacher can teach many subjects. And we will have robots do teaching jobs. T: So maybe I should be born 40 years later, in that case,
103、 the job for me will be much interesting. Step II Follow-up ActivityEncourage the Ss to predict their future life and make a short-term plan. Let them talk about their dreams and then write passages introducing these dreams.T: Everyone, have you ever dreamt of your own future? Have you asked yoursel
104、f what you will be? Now lets make a prediction, or we can say, lets make a plan for ourselves: What will I be in the future? You can discuss with your partners to fill in the following chart and then write a passage introducing your dreams.Show the Ss the chart on the screen.TimeWhat will you do?Whe

And then select some Ss to give a report to the whole class.Step HomeworkT: Imagine you are at your age of 30. Write a passag

More than 10 years ago, I left high school and went to study at a good university. I was a history major and I also studied two foreign languages. After graduation, I was offere
107、d a job teaching history in a middle school. At first, I didnt think Id like to teach history. I thought the students would think history was too boring. My first year was very difficult. I didnt know much about teaching and the students did not like my lessons. But I was lucky. One of the older tea

115、st has always fascinated science fiction writers. The “grandfather paradox” is the argument that many people use to suggest that time travel is impossible. What if you went back in time and prevented your grandfather from meeting your grandmother so that your mother was never born? Then you would ne
116、ver have been born . and so on.Until very recently such arguments led most scientists to believe that time travel could never exist outside science fiction. But amazingly, some interpretations of the weirdness of the quantum world now suggest that time travel is possible at least in theory.Gravity a
117、nd black holesEinsteins theory of relativity brought space and time together in a single, four-dimensional arrange-ment that he called space-time. We know that we can travel forwards, backwards and sideways in space, so why not forwards and backwards in time?Four dimensions are difficult to imagine,
118、 so physicists usually suggest you think of space-time as a rubber sheet stretched out flat. If there are no large masses around, the sheet stays flat, and so any object placed on it will move around in straight lines. But a large mass, such as the sun, makes a dip in the sheet because it actually w
119、arps space-time. Now any other object with smaller mass, like our earth, moving about in space-time rolls into the dip as it comes past the sun. It appears “attracted” to the large mass. This effect of warping space-time is what gives rise to gravity.The Universe is full of heavy objects exerting gr
120、avitational effects and the net result is that space-time is not flat at all but curved. Everything, including light, has to follow curved paths in space-time. We know Einstein was right about this because astronomers can sometimes see distant stars that ought to be masked by nearer objects such as
121、the sun. Instead of traveling in straight lines and hence being blocked, the light from the stars bends round the obstruction.When a star reaches the end of its life it mat collapse inwards under the influence of its own gravity to such an extent that all its matter becomes concentrated into an extr
122、emely dense object, a fraction of its original size. This is a black hole. Black holes have such a huge gravitational pull that nothing can escape from them, not even light. We cannot see them but we have good evidence that they are being pulled about by a nearby invisible object with enormous mass.
123、What does a black hole do to space-time? Relativity predicts that at the center of a black hole is an infinitely dense point, called a singularity, within which all the normal laws of physics no longer apply. Time, space, matter and energy no longer have any well-defined meaning. Einsteins equations
124、 show that such a singularity doesnt just make a dip in the imaginary rubber sheet of space- time, it makes a tunnel that goes right through and momentarily opens out on the other side. Where is “the other side”? It could be somewhere else in space-time, either in the future or in the past, or it co
125、uld even be in another Universe! Supposedly it was Derwoods Time lords who first harnessed the power of a black hole to begin their experiments in time travel. If you could take a space trip through such a tunnel, or wormhole, you would have discovered the secret of time travel. This is of course im
126、possible with todays technology. But in the future, who knows?Many worlds, many futures?To return to the question that has puzzled thinkers since Newtons day, is the future preordained? Or are there a quantum world suggests that not only are there an infinite number of futures? One way of looking at
127、 the quantum world suggests that not only are realized in an infinite number of universes.Photons and electrons sometimes behave as waves and sometimes as particles, but never both at the same time. So far, the argument for interference between one universe and another applies only to events occurri
128、ng at the quantum level.But the idea of parallel universes provides a possible resolution to the “grandfather paradox” that might otherwise cause problems for time travelers. If we travel back in time and change history, we launch ourselves into a new future in a parallel universe but we have no eff
129、ect on the present one from which we started out.Scientists of the future may well pursue a new form of futuristic technology based on quantum effects. Such applications could include quantum teleportation, by which a quantum particle can be teleported from one point in space to another; and quantum
130、 computation, where calculations can be carried out which would take many years on a conventional computer. Although we now know how to measure time very accurately, have we come any nearer to answering the basic question “What is time?”.PleiadesThe Pleiades is known as the Seven Sisters and Messier
131、 45. It is roughly 500 light years from Earth. There are actually about two hundred and fifty to five hundred thousand stars with this cluster that have been counted including the 7 major ones that have been known throughout antiquity. The cluster contains thousands of stars, of which only a handful can be seen by naked eyes. The stars in the Pleiades are thought to have formed together around 100 million years ago, making them 1/50th the age of our sun, and they lie some 130 parsecs (425 light years) away.版权所有：高考资源网()版权所有：高考资源网()高考资源网版权所有 侵权必究
